Creator: Dan Cummins, Lynze Cummins


Synopsis:

The paranormal comes to life as husband-wife duo Dan Cummins (acclaimed standup comedian and true horror fan) and Lynze Cummins (costume and wardrobe stylist for numerous film and television productions) share terrifying stories that will leave you sleeping with the lights on. Dan’s goal? To scare Lynze with creepy accounts of demonic possession, shadow people, and other eerie phenomena. And when he’s done, Lynze fights back with chilling fan-submitted tales of true horror. Together, they explore the darkest corners of the web, dusty old books, and even their own eerie surroundings—a studio filled with occult objects and located right next to a cemetery. Don’t forget to check out the mini-series Nightmare Fuel, airing on this feed the first and third Friday of every month, where Dan narrates a short piece of original horror fiction.

Grandma Heidi's Little Children

Wed, 18 Sep 2024 06:30:00 +0000

Four very different and very interesting tales this week! Dan kicks us off with a story  somewhere in west Texas that centers around some Black Eyed Children. MAYBE. If not BEK, than what? Then, a second story that is set in two different locations in South Carolina, that both claim to be haunted, and both share the same name: The Rose Hill Plantation.  Lynze has two very unique tales this week. Her first explores vulture culture briefly and lost time and space amongst friends. What kind of chaos can you expect when exploring dead carcasses? Wrapping it up, the last tale is of astral projection. Such a heady concept that both Dan and Lynze have musings on.

What's Down There?

Wed, 11 Sep 2024 06:30:00 +0000

Thanks to our fans who listen on iHeart! We are so grateful for the extra love from them! Dan kicks off this weeks show with a doozy! Neither are normal when it comes to subject matter. No ghosts today. No demons. No shadow people or even cryptids. Both have an extraterrestrial spin to them. The first deals with a woman in the late 1960s encountering something horrifying and seemingly not of this world. It’s a very strange story. Then, a series of encounters with UFOS, and possibly extraterrestrial beings as well, spotted around Russia, primarily back in 1989 when it was still the USSR. Lynze gives us a creepy but also funny tale about a haunted item brought home from GoodWill. Then she shares a story that we suspect ties to Native American Folklore. 

Street Team 2024: September 16th at 12 noon PT is when the stickers go live on our website- BADMAGICPRODUCTIONS.COM. Winner will be announced on November 4th on socials and on the shows- we record ahead of time so our personal announcement may be delayed so keep an eye on socials.  We are talking a $200 merch credit just by slapping some stickers around your neck of the woods!

The House On Ithaca Street

Wed, 4 Sep 2024 06:30:00 +0000

Dan's  first story  revolves around a Realtor trying and failing to sell a property that seems to clearly have something supernaturally wrong with it.  Then is off to Eastern Canada, between Montreal and Toronto. Two young men head out to go camping and see more than they bargained for. One of them swears off camping forever as a result! Lynze crushes this week with two tales! Her first is a classic haunted New Orleans hotel story. What could be more spoopy that that? Then, a ouija board tale like none we have ever told. It will stick with you and make you wonder just how powerful those boards might actually be.

It's Time to Wake Up

Wed, 28 Aug 2024 06:30:00 +0000

Dan starts with an alleged anonymous modern encounter involving a man hearing a girl’s voice as a child - a voice asking him to wake up, and a voice that keeps asking this for many, many years - well into adulthood. And then finally, something very strange happens that leaves him feeling certain that this voice did not just belong. Then, a tale that is about the mysterious and troubling disappearance of a young man who disappeared in the Idaho wilderness, not far from where Dan grew up, back in 2018.  Lynze takes us back to our childhoods with a creepy game of hide and seek. Then she wraps up this episode with an unexplainable story from an EMT. 

Patreon Monthly Donation: This month, we are donating to the Army of Survivors who’s mission is to bring awareness, accountability, and transparency to sexual violence against athletes at all levels. Accountability for perpetrators and the institutions that enable them; Transparency so athletes do not fear retaliation when reporting abuse, and institutions do not cover it up.  Nearly 6 million children and young adults in the United States are survivors of sexual violence through their participation in sports. This translates to nearly 13% of all student-athletes — and likely many more than that — as we know this crime is consistently underreported. The culture of sports today often makes athletes feel like they have to say yes to whatever they are asked to do because otherwise their career, their love of their sport, or their identity within that sport, could be threatened. We empower athletes with compassion, strength, and courage to embrace the fundamental truth that they have a right to safety. 

We will donate 13,760 to The Army of Survivors. We will put 1,530 into the scholarship fund for next year. If you would like more info you can visit thearmyofsurvivors.org

Lynze discovers a new cryptid- the Fresno Nightcrawler! Yikes! Then we travel south to the swamps and bayous of Louisiana for a strange little story.

And how will the massacre he was responsible for affect the lives of five college students who decide to visit the allegedly haunted grounds of the old summer camp today?

The Stairwell

Wed, 14 Aug 2024 06:30:00 +0000

Dan's first tale he is telling is about an anonymous woman allegedly encountering something terrifying in a stairwell. Then, in his second storey,  we learn about an allegedly cursed painting, The Crying Boy, produced by Italian artist Giovanni Bragolin. This painting was mass produced, and an alarming number of homes where prints of this painting have been displayed have burned down over the years. Yet the print itself almost never burns with them. Coincidence? Let's dig in. Lynze has some awesome fan submitted horror this week! The first is a classic road trip story that has a young couple spending the night in a creepy motel. Then, to finish out the episode, Lynze has a story about a little kids nightmares coming to haunt his whole family. 

Cummins Family Scholarship: We want to give a MASSIVE shoutout to this years scholarship recipients! Sarah DeZwaan, Letha Dennison, Jessie Peckham and Liam Watson!! We are so damn proud of each of you for pursuits. I am especially touched by one of our recipients who shared with me that they lived a life full of addiction but were able to get clean and get their life back on track. This person will finish college and become a nurse at the age of 50. Going to show that you CAN start over and that you CAN make a difference, no matter what your position in life. We are deeply honored to be able to offer a small amount of support to these folks. And, as always, we are so grateful to our community of Patrons who continue to pay for content each month that allows us to do this!

Who Are You?

Wed, 7 Aug 2024 06:30:00 +0000

Dan has one really big tale that is beyond captivating and unsettling. It's hard to say more without ruining the story. Then, Lynze brings us three stories this week. Her first is a about a possible encounter with a BEK, kind of. Less of a child and more of an adult. Maybe. Then, did a young boy see the infamous Hat Man or was it someone else? Lastly, fearing things that come out from under our bed is a classic horror trope. But what if you DID see something under your bed??!!

Mystery On The Tundra

Wed, 31 Jul 2024 06:30:00 +0000

Dan crushes this week with one giant tale out of Alaska and a smaller tale from Spain! His first story will take you on a road trip to the northern tip of Alaska, up in the Arctic Circle where life is hard, sparse, and maybe more diverse than we currently know of with certainty? Did some young friends run across a murderous monster of some sort? Then to Spain we go! Is the House of Seven Chimneys in Madrid Spain haunted by the ghosts of two people connected to a possible early and unsolved murder involving the Spanish King? Next up, Lynze has some awesome stories too! First up, we explore some Mexican Folklore. Can you guess the folklore before it's revealed? Then, in her last story, a feeling we all know all too well. Just when you think you are alone...

BOOK #5: We are doing a limited run of 1,500 books this year! Each and every book will be autographed! 500 books will be made available to Annabelles only on  FRIDAY, AUGUST 9TH AT 12 NOON PT/3 PM ET.  Then, on TUESDAY, AUGUST 13TH at  12 NOON PT/3 PM ET the remaining  1,000 books  will go on sale for anyone and everyone that wants one!

Patreon Monthly Donation: Thinking about how crazy the weather is every year with fires, tornadoes and hurricane, we decided this months charity should be the Y’all Squad! Their mission is simple yet critical: to be among the first on the scene when a tornado, hurricane, or any other weather-related disaster strikes, and ask, "how can we help?". They aim to give the affected communities the necessary support and resources for recovery by way of rapid response from their team members closest to the area. Big thanks to Madison Wilson for sharing this charity with us. They remind me of us, if we had a relief charity. We sent them $12,320 while setting aside $1,370 for the scholarship fund.

Dan shares two stories. The first one is a big one. We’ll visit the Gunter Hotel in San Antonio, Texas. Did an infamous murder committed there in 1965 lead to the hotel gaining a reputation for being particularly haunted?  The history at the top of this tale is awesome!  Then, we’ll travel across the pond to Leeds, England and look into a claim that either a monster or someone who was just monstrous moved into a row house right after its tenants moved out in the 1940s, and began harassing the neighbors. Lynze also gives us two tales from opposite sides of the world. Her first story is about a  seance gone wrong. But let's be honest: when do they ever go "right"? Then, a very freaky and bizarre tale of a possible alien encounter in Australia! 

Hang with us this week for a slower paced show. Dan is sick and was battling through to make sure we don't miss a show! Crazy, 255 shows and never missed an episode! Thank you for your support!

He Put His Hands On Me

Wed, 17 Jul 2024 06:30:00 +0000

Dan had two killer tales to share this week! He starts with a supposed encounter with what might be the creepiest kind of man: a paranormal pedophile. Then, in his second story, Dan really gets Lynze worked up when he shares the story of the Jamison Family Disappearance.  Lynze shares three strange tales. Her first is a classic ouija board tale. Then she shares the story of two brothers who piss off a recently deceased man. Lastly, she takes us to Cambodia for the tale of an Ahp!

The Backrooms

Wed, 10 Jul 2024 06:30:00 +0000

Dan has one big tale for us this week. A story based in fictional internet horror lore, but the person who posted it CLAIMS that this lore has come to life somehow. The strange liminal world of the Backrooms. We’ve talked about the concept of the multiverse and/or parallel dimensions several times. Could the creepy world of the Backrooms be next to ours? Can you end up there? Can you end up stuck there? Then Lynze has two spoopy tales that are a bit more heady. Her first will ask you to examine if you believe that the supernatural could save you from the horrors of this world. Then, three police officers have a shared experience that none of them can explain. Was it supernatural? Men in black? You decide.

The Butcher of Trenton

Wed, 26 Jun 2024 06:30:00 +0000

Dan comes with his usual two stories this week. One bigger one, and then a little one. We’ve done a fair amount of haunted asylum stories here over the years, but few with as detailed of a backstory as today’s. We will start by learning about Henry Cotton - a truly mad doctor who worked at the New Jersey State Hospital at Trenton, now The Trenton Psychiatric Hospital. The we will explore if his ghost  now haunts the abandoned portions of this facility. Then, Dan dives into the creepy legend of a supposedly cursed doll named, Joliet. Has this doll been killing newborn babies for decades? Is this a family of Donna's? Let's find out. Then, Lynze has two really intense stories as well and she offers a warning at the top of the show for all parents- these are going to tug at your heartstrings. In her first story, she will share a story about a young child who drowns and nearly doesn't come back. But when she does, does she bring something, or someone, with her? Wrapping up the show, she has a story about a group of friends who go camping but come back minus a friend who seems to have simply vanished. 

Patreon Monthly Donation: This month’s charity is the Committee to Protect Journalists AKA CPJ. They are an independent, nonprofit organization that promotes press freedom worldwide- defending the right of journalists to report the news safely and without fear of reprisal. Between Scared to Death and Timesuck, we rely on various outlets to gather information and stories, sometimes this includes news articles from around the world. We felt this was a really cool place to give back to! We are sending them $12,926 and putting $1,438 into the scholarship fund!

The Red Room

Wed, 12 Jun 2024 06:30:00 +0000

Dan shares a most wild story of creepy Adobe Flash curse being passed around the internet. Then, Dan shares what is possibly a more disturbing tale from Bergen Norway of a Death Valley that holds much lore. Lynze has her standard two tales this week. Her first one is not that scary as you listen but then you see the picture take by the folks exploring this abandoned building and you will freak out. Then, in her last tale of the show,  a fan tale surrounding a legend seems to have lasting affects on one kid from a group of friends who go exploring.

It Came For Him

Wed, 29 May 2024 06:30:00 +0000

Dan's first story is a modern encounter story that fits into the Rules of Appalachia Lore. There are a bunch of stories that floated around on TikTok and Reddit the last few years regarding what kinds of strange creatures might be in the woods of Appalachia. His  second has to do with aa Baltimore, Maryland legend. Today’s story  it that of a teenage girl who met some sort of tragic end, and whose ghost now seems to be seeking revenge on the living. Lynze has two truly epic tales this week. Her first one will take you on a rollercoaster ride like no other. A haunted house that drives a family mad, in particular one person, who never returns to the safety of our world. Story two will make all of your doll fears come to life!

The Face Of Grief (Black Aggie)

Wed, 8 May 2024 06:30:00 +0000

Dan's first story  first revolves around Black Aggie - the name of a statue that sat for years in a Maryland cemetery and attracted a number of paranormal claims, many of which were featured in various articles in the Baltimore press. Then we explore some Cherokee Folklore. The story of the Yunwi Tsunsdi  aka…. the “Little People.” Most of the stories come from the area of Hickory Nut Gorge, North Carolina. A haunted house trifecta from Lynze this week is sure to please! Her first two tales are quick classic with the children of the home knowing that it's haunted but the parents brushing it off... until they too find confirmation. Her third tale takes us back to the Whaley House in San Diego!

He Was Real

Wed, 1 May 2024 06:30:00 +0000

Dan has two excellent scares this week. The first comes from friend of one of our staff. It is CREEPY. What starts off looking like a bad case of sleep paralysis  or nightmares ends up  being a very real case of an encounter with a pair of disturbing entities. Then we have a ghost story from the American Civil War era. Despite taking place over 150 years ago, it was well documented by some local newspapers. It’s a very odd story that is sad and scary. Lynze has three stories this week! She shares a tale about a possible sighting of spear finger on a dark road. Then, she shares with us one of those bizarre stories about time and space not being quite right. Lastly, a military story that left some servicemen beyond scared.

Terror In The Stairwell

Wed, 24 Apr 2024 06:30:00 +0000

Dan shares the story of the disappearance of the Grimes sisters. What makes this story suitable to be told here are a bunch of witnesses seeing these girls, after they vanished, in places they just could not be. Then we go to the Anderson Municipal Business Center in 2009. We hear details of what was supposedly seen and heard, plus an anonymous encounter story. 
Lynze has a more traditional haunted house story to start her half of the show. Her second story is WILD. It is the telling of an exorcism performed by a Yoruba priest!

What's In The Basement?

Wed, 17 Apr 2024 06:30:00 +0000

Dan will feature only one tale this week but it's a big one! Really immersive. We’re heading to a haunted strip club in West Virginia! Before we get there, we’ll share a bit of lore from some other haunted strip clubs too! Then, we have a tricky ghost hanging out in the Cottonwood Cemetery. This is a fun tale told by Lynze. Lastly, a woman has been seeing and feeling the same two spirits her entire life. Just when she thought they were gone, she thought wrong.

The Spirit Of Highway Five

Wed, 10 Apr 2024 06:30:00 +0000

Dan has a tale in Alabama and centers around a ghost that has been spotted by numerous truckers - and some other drivers as well - at night along Highway 5. Then we head to Pune, India to explore the story of the Pune Poltergeist. Lynze has a bizarre haunted house tale that might also include a mimic? You decide. Then we go to Mexico for a funny tale of a new little creature called a  duende followed by a much heavier, much darker tale.

The Ghosts Of Franklin Castle

Wed, 20 Mar 2024 06:30:00 +0000

Dan kicks off the show with a real head scratcher. Was a man take by aliens of was he just a man who drank himself into mental illness and then left his family? You be the judge. We go to Cleveland, Ohio for a fun history lesson and then many small stories of the spirits that may still live in Franklin Castle. Then Lynze gives us a different kind of tale that explores Celtic folklore. A young couple is out enjoying a winter hike when they encounter a woman who is just not quite right. Was it a fae? Lastly, we all know imaginary friends can be the makings of a child's mind. But what if they are something more?

Roadkill

Wed, 13 Mar 2024 06:30:00 +0000

The first story this week is about a long haul trucker who had quite the night out on the road alone in the middle of heavily forested area on the East Coast. He saw something, a couple somethings, maybe. The creepiness lingers on this one. The the second story is set in the little unincorporated community of Saint Mary-of-the-Woods, Indiana, located just outside of Terre Haute. A small Roman Catholic liberal arts college, Saint Mary-of-the-Woods is supposedly haunted by the spirit of a faceless nun. The back half of the show features two tales. The first is about the hat man but not how we are used to seeing him and not acting as he normally does. Is it possible that the hat man can find us in our waking hour and be of help to us? Then, a final story about a cryptid we  met back in  an episode in the first year of the show by the same name, the rake. This fan encounter will leave you feeling twitchy.

Thank You For Visiting

Wed, 6 Mar 2024 07:30:00 +0000

Dan has two fantastic stories this week. The first is about a bunch of sporadic reports to police and media, beginning in the early 1990s, about people claiming to be social workers and attempting to abduct children from their parents. This topic might not SEEM paranormal, but just wait for it. The second tale is set in small town America, posted by someone who has chosen to remain anonymous and it revolves around a haunted laundromat. Lynze Dazzles us with two awesome fan submitted horror stories. The first takes us camping in Florida. What starts as a fun boys weekend in the woods ends with a lifetime fear of being out there.

Lake Labynkyr Devil

Wed, 28 Feb 2024 07:30:00 +0000

Dan kicks off the show with a strange tale from Russia. A water dwelling, creepy creature that no one seems to know what it is. We join him at Lake Labynkyr. Is it just folklore? Or are some kind of leftover dinosaurs or something else living in this lake? Real-life sea serpents? Then, we go back to Wildwood, Missouri’s Zombie Road. While we once shared stories from Zombie Road several years ago - today’s encounters are all new. Or at least, new for us to share. Lynze has a Peeper friendly tale that is rather interesting and then wraps up February with a tale in Michigan about loosing time in the wilderness.    

Scholarship: Round two of The Cummins Family Scholarship Fund, presented by Bad Magic is here! Sort of. Bad Magic fans can begin applying for 1 of 4, $5,000 scholarships as of March 6th.

Is Dorothy Home?

Wed, 21 Feb 2024 07:30:00 +0000

Dan has a murder-mystery-nightmare double header this week. I have a murder mystery double feature. The story of a woman harassed by a psychopath, both before AND after her death, was she not harassed by a psychopath, but something else? The second story is another report of a young woman being murdered under strange circumstances regarding her possible killer, and allegations of a haunting that has followed her death. Then Lynze has three tales this week! Her first involves a creepy visitor to an Air BnB in the middle of nowhere. Next up, an unexplained encounter with who-knows-what during a very private moment. And then wrapping up the episode, our fan story takes us back to the Pennhurst Asylum.

The Ghost Fleet Of Chuuk Lagoon

Wed, 14 Feb 2024 07:30:00 +0000

Happy Valentine's Day, Creeps and Peepers!

Dan's first story  is set in the beautiful  Micronesia. We’ll visit one person’s claim of what happened to them while doing some scuba diving amongst the WW2 wreckage of Chuuk Lagoon, a supposedly very haunted underwater graveyard. After that, we head  to Ohio, to the little town of Bellaire, Ohio, where the supposedly very haunted Bellaire House stands. Did a mining disaster and more lead to the home today being possibly infested with numerous entities? Then Lynze has two tales, per usual. Her first is a more lighthearted but still awesome haunted house story where all of the ghosts living there ban together for a common cause. He final story takes us to Vermont and the Bennington Triangle.

Do You Believe Now?

Wed, 7 Feb 2024 07:30:00 +0000

Dan has two tales that have an unintentional North America indigenous peoples theme for today’s show. The first is the story of the Santa Fe’s De Vargas Street House, a story that surrounds one of the very one oldest houses in all of America. Then, for his second story we hear the lore of Spearfinger. Lynze has her usual two stories, both revolving around phones. Her first one is a somewhat comical confirmation tale and her second is creepy, creepy, creepy!

The Cooneen Poltergeist

Wed, 31 Jan 2024 07:30:00 +0000

For Dan's first story in this poltergeist double feature, we head to Birmingham, England. In the Fall of 2021, Christine Evans claims her family was brutally tormented by an intense amount of disturbing paranormal activity. And the second story is full of roughly the same activity - activity to allegedly have occurred in Fermanagh  County, Ireland over a century earlier in the story of the Cooneen  Poltergeist.

Lynze has two tales, the first of which is  really wild! She shares with us a police officers mysterious encounter with a shadow person. Then its off the the swamps of Florida where we hear about a couple of friends shared experience with a creature of the unknown.

The Nephilim

Wed, 24 Jan 2024 07:30:00 +0000

In a strange twist, both Dan and Lynze only have one story each this week! Dan's  is a big one that takes us to Las Vegas, where we’ll learn about a lot of people who have died at the Luxor Hotel and Casino followed by a modern encounter tale from a woman who claims she had a terrifying encounter at the hotel when she stayed there  as a little kid. Then, Lynze brings us a new scary creature, the nephilim. This final tale takes place around a hunting experience in Louisiana.

The Legend of the Feu Follet

Wed, 17 Jan 2024 07:30:00 +0000

Dan has two fun stories this week for you! The first is the story of a convent in Milwaukee that reportedly experienced over a year’s worth of paranormal activity in the mid-19th century. Then we hear the cajun legend of the Feu Follet,  a mysterious light from Louisiana folklore described as a mysterious and paranormal “sinister force” that leads people to their deaths.  Then Lynze gives us three tales! Her first two surround the hospitality industry and her last story is a head scratcher- is it an attachment, a haunted house or something else?!

Dan's  first tale takes us to Riverside, California at Mount Rubidoux and the  Shadow people there!  After that, we go to Ireland. Dan will share the haunted history of Loftus Hall, supposedly one of Ireland’s most haunted places. Then, Lynze has two fun stories for you!

Trouble Getting Home

Happy  2024! While we recorded this in 2023, we too are excited to get to 2024 and kick off this amazing year! Thank you for your continued support! Dan and Lynze each have two tales this week! Dan will share a story about a strange encounter with something in a liquor store and then a story about an airport ghost. Both tales feel like visitors or places we have not explored yet!  Then comes in Lynze with two great shares. The first is about a haunted house in Warren, MA. And then a camping tale that we ponder about being a warning or not!

Still Trapped

Wed, 27 Dec 2023 07:30:00 +0000

Happy end of 2023! You made it! We'd love it if you stuck around until the end of the show to hear some insight into Bad Magic and what we do here!  Dan has his two awesome stories, the first comes from northern Nevada. We’ll visit the former mining boom town of Gold Hill and learn about all the haunted lore that surrounds its old Yellow Jacket mine. Then, we’ll head to Georgia for the heavily documented 19th century haunting known as the Surrency Poltergeist. One of the most verified hauntings in American history. Lynze has three creepy stories to end the year. Her first asks us to look at the Norse gods as a possible character that might show up in your life. Then she takes us on a journey with a truck driver and an entity that has been with him all over the country. Lastly, she shares an especially creepy tale about a haunted hotel room! 

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING.

The Signal Man

Wed, 20 Dec 2023 07:30:00 +0000

Welcome to Dan's traditional holiday tales! While his first story will be a modern, supposedly true horror story that has nothing to do with the holidays, his second will be a tale from Charles Dickens! Then Lynze dazzles with a possible possession or maybe multiple possessions and a visit from La Llorona!

The Burned Woman

Wed, 13 Dec 2023 07:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING.

Dan shares two awesome tales this week. The first is set just outside the little Eastern Oregon city of La Grande. We'll learn about the allegedly haunted Hot Lake Springs Hotel and a unique modern encounter tale from a journal left for guests to write about their stay. And then, we'll learn what the wonderful actress and author Carrie Fisher had to say about the paranormal before she passed away too soon in 2016. Lynze has two incredible stories! Her first explores a family history of a possible curse and then the modern haunted house encounters of some people unrelated to the family. In her last story, get the Kleenex, this one will get you in the feels. A great story of poltergeist activity that leads a mom to some valuable information about her kid.

Standup: If you want to see a very different side of Dan than you see here and possibly see Lynze in the crowd (she is always happy to say HI!), get on over to dancummins.tv for ticket links to shows. You can find Dan in Virginia Beach! A reminder that Dan is not touring in 2024, so this is your last chance to see him!

The Screaming Specter

Wed, 29 Nov 2023 07:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING.

Dan has three stories this week! His first story takes us to the UK for the story of Anne Naylor, her said demise and subsequent haunting.  Then a strange story of bizarre goop falling from the sky in Oakville, Washington. Lastly, a good old haunted house story with ouija boards and curses and ghosts!  Lynze takes this week to show us a different side of hauntings by exploring the energy left behind from our loved ones. Nothing to scary but the stories are sweet and once again, lend credibility to the overall ideas explored here. 

Patreon Monthly Donation: In November, we have decided to donate to The Blue Skies Foundation. The Brotallion Blue Skies Foundation is a veteran-founded non-profit dedicated to providing post-mishap support for the Army Aviation community and their families. We will send them $12,884 this month and add $1430 to the scholarship fund for distribution next year. If you'd like to learn more or support the Blue Skies Foundation, please visit thebrotallionblueskiesfoundation.org.

Standup: If you want to see a very different side of Dan than you see here and possibly see Lynze in the crowd (she is always happy to say HI!), get on over to dancummins.tv for ticket links to shows. You can find Dan in Lexington and Virginia Beach! A reminder that Dan is not touring in 2024, so this is your last chance to see him!

The Black Angel

Wed, 22 Nov 2023 07:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING.

Dan has a mysterious disappearance and an urban legend that some think is a lot more than just a legend. His first tale focuses on the strange circumstances surrounding the disappearance of a young man in Colorado back in 2008. The second story will bring us to a cemetery in Iowa where an angelic statue has gained a reputation for not being very…. angelic. Is the Black Angel of Iowa City, Iowa's Oakland Cemetery cursed? Lynze has two great stories this week as well! She will kick it off with a bizarre and hard-to-explain story about a hot tub and a cell phone- we will leave it at that. And her second story is a banger with haunted house vibes, doppelgangers, and a jinn! 

 

Patreon Monthly Donation: In November, we always choose a Veteran/Military non-profit in honor of Veteran's Day. This year, we have decided to donate to The Blue Skies Foundation. The Brotallion Blue Skies Foundation is a veteran-founded non-profit dedicated to providing post-mishap support for the Army Aviation community and their families. They consider themselves fortunate to be part of a close-knit community and thus see their responsibility to give back and support the families of those who have lost loved ones.

Dan switches it up this week with seven small tales he discovered in an old book. It's a fun and spoopy ride! Lynze takes us to St. Augustine and India. Both tales have twists and turns and make for a great episode!

Dan shares the story of a  Korean horror lore that many people claim to be much more than an urban legend. And then, we get a little Lovecraftian, and explore a mystery that revolves around the possibility of horrible things that may live in the ocean depths.  Lynze shares just one story about a probable alien abduction and how this may be happening to one family over many years.

The Museum Of Shadows

Wed, 1 Nov 2023 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan has three stories this week, a rarity! The first tale revolves around the possible curse of The Iceman mummy. Are a series of deaths related to the discovery of a very ancient body found near the border between Italy and Austria? Next, we stay in Europe and head to Spain, examining the mystery of La Mussara - an abandoned village near the city of Tarragona. Does the fog the frequently blankets the town have anything to do with numerous disappearances and all kinds of paranormal sightings? Finally, a good-old fashioned haunting in Chicago. But one that lead to the first nationally televised history, when the Beckers sought to rid their new home of threatening activity.  Lynze is sharing some Halloween fun! Her first story is about a haunted or possessed doll named Claire at the The Museum of Shadows in Omaha. Then, she takes us on long journey about a the Witches Watertower and a seance held there on Halloween. 

New Merch: Check out our amazing merch  at badmagicmerch.com

Felt so good to be able to support this amazing benefit. Another 1,485 was put into the scholarship fund for 2024. Stay tuned on the next round of submissions that will happen early next year. Last year we awarded three 5,000 scholarships and this year we are looking to award four, 5,000 scholarships. Continually amazed and appreciative of your support and the community building here!

Wed, 25 Oct 2023 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan is sharing two stories in this episode. I A big one and a little one again. The first story has SOMETHING to do with dating apps like Tinder. Who are you REALLY meeting up with sometimes? For the second story, a bit of history and paranormal lore from a haunted farm in Illinois: Willow Creek Farm. Can spirits in a haunted home not only torment anyone living in the house, but other spirits as well? Lynze bring three stories this week. Her first tale shares a persons journey to rid themself of a dark energy. Then a story about a mimic or a spirit or was it all in his head? Lastly, a story about helping a spirit move on after several incidents.

Last year we awarded three 5,000 scholarships and this year we are looking to award four, 5,000 scholarships. Continually amazed and appreciative of your support and the community building here!

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan has two stories this week with the first one being bigger and more scary! It's such a strange story about a young man who seems to fall in with the wrong crowd and wreak havoc in his families life. But is it him or something else? Then, the legends and hauntings of the USS Lexington. Lynze gets crazy with three stories this week. A definitely haunted house, yes, but what is haunting the house? The former resident or something else. Then a new kind of tale, a tale of lore from Transylvania, and lastly a haunted warehouse that has an especially creepy character residing there.

The Creeper of Waverly Hills Sanatorium

Wed, 11 Oct 2023 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

We head to South Carolina’s allegedly haunted Salem Black River Presbyterian Church. Do several spirits haunt not only the church, but the nearby cemetery as well? This story features a modern encounter. For the second story, we travel to the supposedly VERY haunted Waverly Hills Sanatorium in Louisville, Kentucky. The former location of a tremendous amount of death is now a hotspot for ghost hunters, and it sounds like for good reason. Lynze dazzles us with a tale about a bizarre possible sleep paralysis episode and then ends the show with a haunted house tale!

New Merch:  Last reminder now for the 3rd annual True Tales of Hallow’s Eve Horror! You can grab tickets right now to our October 13th event at badmagicmerch.com 6PM PST - Friday the 13th!

The Devil's Clock

Wed, 4 Oct 2023 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan's  first story to share this week revolves around a clock. While it might not sound so scary, it's actually terrifying. Could a clock be built as an occult object? Could it have some sort of demonic entity attached to it? Let's find out! Next, the story of a ton of UFO sightings coming from Italy in October of 1954. Could roughly 10,000 people have all seen the same UFOs at a football match? Lynze has some animal themed tales this week, which is kind of funny but not really. Her first story features a bunny, which is known to be a symbol of the underworld. What was this particular bunny up to? And then, her worst nightmare, frogs! What is going on with these frogs throwing themselves up against a window? Tune in and find out!
 

New Merch:  
Brand new Spoopy design featuring an adorable wide eyed bat and large words SPOOPY. Available now in a tee shirt and mug.

The Bell Island Hag

Wed, 27 Sep 2023 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan's  first story is really three stories mixed with some local lore. First, after going over the kinds of paranormal encounters most often reported from people visiting Virginia’s Braley, we explore the story of a murder that took place that that has added to its reputation as a paranormal hotspot. Then, we’ll go over what an area ghost hunter claims happened to them there. And finally, a young woman’s terrifying modern encounter claim.  After that, we’ll be off to Canada to cover a whole bunch of lore associated with numerous sightings of a night hag in Newfoundland. Lynze shares just one big story this week about a less scary but rather helpful spiritual hitchhiker! 
 

New Merch:  The official merch for our 3rd annual Haunted Halloween Show is here! VERY cool and creepy illustration from Logan depicting a ghostlike face screaming in terror.  You can also grab tickets to our October 13th event at  badmagicmerch.com

It Came From The Dungeon

Wed, 20 Sep 2023 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan has standard two spoopy stories for you this week. The first is a modern encounter set in the Missouri State Penitentiary. We will go over its long history of infamous prisoners and  its paranormal lore as well before ending with the encounter tale. Then we go to Pendleton, South Carolina to check out some claims coming from the supposedly haunted Woodburn plantation. Lynze has two stories for us this week and both have a similar theme. The first up is the tale of a watchful soldier and then the second, a less than desirable situation when a cop pulls someone over. 
 

New Merch:   We've got a fun new simple 4 year anniversary design in store now to celebrate a big milestone! Limited design available on a tee or sweatshirt. A cool handwritten 'Scared to Death' with the A in death being... 4. Head on over to badmagicmerch.com and check it out!

Wed, 13 Sep 2023 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan has a story about a home in San Francisco that was reportedly infested with a LOT of paranormal activity for several months in the mid-19th century. It is unusually well-documented amount of activity witnessed by many. Then his second story takes us to Arkansas where we explore a haunting set in the unique location of the Plum Bayou Mounds Archeological State Park, formerly known as "Toltec Mounds Archeological State Park.” Lynze has four tales this week making it a longer episode, yay! She has two possible skinwalker sightings, an encounter with the folk lore of the Irish Banshee and then a really intense doppleganger story!

Wed, 6 Sep 2023 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

The top of the episode story involves lore surrounding the old Athens Asylum, once found in Athens, Ohio. The asylum was absorbed by Ohio University after it closed down, and some wonder if the spirits that allegedly once haunted the asylum now haunt the campus. Then a shorter story  set in Barbados. We’ll explore the mystery of the old Chase Vault. Did a bunch of coffins move around on their own, not once but several times, in the early 19th century? The back half of the show provides some head scratchers! The first tale would seem to be about an entity that continually shows up in a young mans that he thinks he has a connection to  but then, at the end, we learn an additional detail that makes him wonder otherwise. The final tale has Dan and Lynze questioning multi-verse. Was there a glitch in the matrix one late night, last fall? You decide.

HAUNTED HALLOWEEN SHOW!  We are excited to announce  that we are doing another Scared to Death Live Show - Haunted Halloween - True Tales of Hallow’s Eve Horror THREE! This year will be on FRIDAY THE 13th!!  6PM PST, October the 13th. The  show will be available for rewatching through November 1st, Noon PT, at moment.co .

The Ghost Of Goody Cole

Tue, 29 Aug 2023 18:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

The first story this week involves a woman who spent her life in New Hampshire centuries ago being mistreated for being a supposed witch! Does her angry spirit now behave in ways similar to how people worried she acted like in life? Did the torment she received create the monster her former neighbors worried about? Then what do you do if your child is regularly seeing ghosts in your home? Ghosts you can’t see, but you do find proof that what she’s saying sure does not seem made up. Three more tales on the back half of this episode. A seemingly normal stop for a bite to eat at a diner turns into a  less than normal evening for one man. Next up, are the aliens playing jokes on us? This tale is similar to one we heard last week. And finally, one of everyone's fear come true- something in the closet reaching out for you. 

Bad Magic Productions Monthly Patreon Donation:

This month’s charity will be Sustainable Alamance, a non profit based in North Carolina. The mission of Sustainable Alamance is to focus on and help individuals who were formerly incarcerated gain and sustain employment  so that they may not only live within the community constructs but to also contribute to society as well. Reading about the steps that are required for formerly incarcerated people to even begin to build their life again was an eye opener and I say this as someone who has a family member who is a felon. I guess I just didn’t comprehend the obstacles. Sustainable Alamance has this quote on their website and I just love it: Poverty is not a lack of money but a lack of resources. We believe that you can “give a man fish” (charity) and even “teach a man to fish” (grace and mercy) but we must also ensure access to the lake (hope and justice). If you’d like to learn more about Sustainable Alamance, you can visit sustainablealamance.org. $1,546 will be put into the scholarship fund for 2024 and $13,915 to be donated to Sustainable Alamance.

The Girl On The Second Floor

Wed, 23 Aug 2023 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan's tales today takes us to  Arkansas, to the grounds of a former treatment facility for tuberculosis, a disease that ran rampant in the US for decades. We’ve learned that hospitals and asylums are hot beds for paranormal activity, and this Sanatorium is no different. And then, we head to Scotland and visit a haunted castle! Castle Fraser is reportedly haunted by numerous spirits. We share some history, a bit of lore, and two modern encounter claims. Lynze has two wonderfully spoopy tales this week. Her first tale about a small town where people going missing will have you wishing everyone there would GTFO. Then, she has a story about a possible alien abduction. It's weird story! 

SHOW DAN SOME LOVE! Mark your calendar for  Sunday, August 27th, 4PM , the debut of Dan's newest standup special, “Trying to Get Better” will be releasing for free on the Bad Magic Productions Youtube channel. PLEASE - share it! This is one of the best ways to support Dan! 

New Merch:  Introducing the "Life In Plastic" collection. A nod to the wildly successful Barbie movie release or something more sinister? It gives me heavy American Horror Story vibes. It also gives me heavy Lynze vibes.. a dead Lynze kinda vibe...Head to badmagicmerch.com

A Cemetary Seance

Wed, 16 Aug 2023 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan kicks off with the story of a young woman around a century ago in a mining town who reaches out to the other side to try and communicate with her dead father and brother. And she contacts SOMETHING. Then, a latchkey kid encounters a special kind of terror that makes spending time alone at home even harder than it already is for a young child. Lynze has two awesome stories this week. The first could be considered a reminder about being wary of what you buy second hand. Then the second story is a bit less creepy but still a great story about an abandoned brothel. 

New Merch:  Hitting the Bad Magic store is the SEVERED collection featuring gory prosthetics! Hyper realistic, bloody severed human parts in magnet and keychain form. Special shoutout to the beautiful custom work by visual effects artist and fan of the show - the badass Tony Campanga at Spellbound FX. Each unit is custom and unique and we have a very limited amount available.

A Dark Rebirth

Wed, 9 Aug 2023 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

We’ll cover a bunch of paranormal Gamecock lore… aka lore from The University of South Carolina. We’ve also added an alleged modern paranormal encounter said to have taken place in the university’s Longstreet Theatre. Then we meet a traveling nurse who claims to have been terrorized by a strange, seemingly sentient entity in his short term rental in Colton, California, just outside of Riverside. How dangerous can some black mold be? A story that will make you scratch your head is next. How can two women who have nothing in common except for dating the same man, 4 years apart, experience the exact some paranormal entity in said man's parents home? Lastly, a ghost on a mission to save her still living family-  a sweet tale to wrap it up! 

SHOW DAN SOME LOVE! Mark your calendar for  Sunday, August 27th, 4PM , the debut of Dan's newest standup special, “Trying to Get Better” will be releasing for free on the Bad Magic Productions Youtube channel. PLEASE - share it! This is one of the best ways to support Dan!

Special Segment: Over the years, we have become huge advocates of mental health. It’s something each and every one of us deals with. As we became more vocal about our own journeys so have you! The more the emails rolled in, the more responsibility we began to feel. That has lead us to partner with BetterHelp for the occasional special segment, “Don’t Be Scared To Ask For Help” where we will share some insight and advice given to us by a licensed therapist. And all of the questions we asked were submitted by listeners. Thank you for doing that! That segment will be at the very end of today’s episode.

 This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp. Thank you to Courtney Cope, Principal Clinical Operations Manager and David Yadush, Senior Clinical Operations Manager at BetterHelp.

The Teeth In The Walls

Wed, 2 Aug 2023 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan has his  normal two stories again. And there’s a theme with them both -faith seemingly conquering evil. The first story is set in the present day - centered around a woman living alone in North Carolina in what she’d hoped was going to be her dream home. And then a real bad former resident tries to turn her dream into a nightmare. Next, we travel over a hundred years back in time and head to southern India. A prominent family is terrorized by an entity that likes to play with fire. Literally. Lynze has three stories this week. A story about a possibly haunted gravesite, a strange tale that might make you wonder if it was a ghost or a prank and then the creepiest little story about what kids can see that we cannot. 
 

New Merch:  
We're excited to bring back an old favorite The 2023 Bad Magic Street Team!  The stickers will be available on Wednesday, August 2nd, Noon PST.  We'll have 500 packs of 10 available to ship out.

We Hear Them At Night

Wed, 26 Jul 2023 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan has a very long story followed by a very short one. The long story revolves around a social worker growing suspicious that something is really, really not right at the home of one of her clients. And when she checks on the kids, that suspicion is really, REALLY confirmed. Next some lore and a modern paranormal encounter out in the woods of Connecticut on the supposedly haunted, and abandoned, Downs Road. Lynze has three tales to share this week. Her first one is about some unwanted but possibly harmless visitors. Her second story has Dan and Lynze pondering the intersection of  mental health and the paranormal. Lastly, a quick story about a possible energy vampire! 

New Merch:   Head to badmagicmerch.com  right now to get your hands on Volume of Scared To Death! 

Bad Magic Productions Monthly Patreon Donation: For the month of July, we decided to use the monthly donation to support The Hill Country Humane Society. Located in rural Texas, they serve a population of people who can hardly afford healthcare for themselves. The shelters are beyond capacity and Texas ranks high (top 1 or 2, depends on where you look for the stats) in the nation for euthanizing animals. The secretary of this foundation reached out to months ago, explaining that one of the best ways the Hill Country Human society could help slow the overpopulation of animals in the shelter is to spay and neuter pets. But being that they serve a low income area, that is often out of the question for owners. With this donation, we are hoping to ease the burden of pet owners in this area, as this organization is in the middle of building a mobile spay/neuter clinic. We will be sending 13,800 to Hill Country Humane Society and adding 1,533 into the scholarship fund! For more information on The Hill Country Humane Society visit hchstexas.com

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan has two tales to tell.  The first one is a story about someone - name never given - who claims to have had a very intense and terrifying paranormal encounter, completely out of nowhere. No warning signs. No building up to it. Life is fine one moment, and they’re in Hell the next.  The second story includes some history, horror lore, and encounter claims coming from a place that bills itself as one of Australia’s most haunted places - the Monte Cristo homestead. Lynze has four short tales this week, trying to mix it up a bit.  She shares the stories of a call from a dead man, a creepy and possibly oppressed college roommate, a doppleganger and the shadow friends of a young child.
 

New Merch:  It's time for BOOK NUMBER FOUR!!!  Annabelles, you can get your autographed book before anyone else with your secret password, when you  PRE ORDER  on  FRIDAY, JULY 21ST AT 12 NOON PACIFIC TIME.  Then on  JULY 25TH AT 12:00 PM PT, the remaining 1,000 autographed books will be on pre order for everyone.  Everyone will have access to continue ordering book number four until they sell out. Volumes 1,2 and 3 will also be available for immediate purchase!  Head to badmagicmerch.com  for you book!

Blood Forest

Wed, 5 Jul 2023 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan and Lynze  have a BIG episode for you today for the 200th episode! Happy Independence Day! Hope our American listeners get to celebrate the 4th of July! Dan will be telling three stories today - Lynze will have another two - you can play a drinking game along to this one if you want. We’ll chat a little at the end like we do on our Patreon bonus episodes - have a little cake and reflect on the Scared to Death journey. Dan's first of three will be about The Doll of Shadows from the Warren’s Occult Museum. Doll lore and supposed encounter story with this creepy, creepy doll. Then a quick one about the Blood Town Forest, aka the Blood Forest, a patch of haunted woods just outside of the little town of Lancaster, Massachusetts. Some locals looked into the legends and ended up scaring the Hell out of themselves. Lastly, we’ll look into another story associated with Ed and Lorraine Warren - Southern California’s Moffitt Family haunting. Possible demonic activity surrounding the Moffitt Family where many people seemed to have witnessed a lot of hard to rationally explain occurrences.  Then Lynze will share her usual two tales. Her first is about a haunted house with a dark, true crime connection. Then her last tale will have you just who or what might be crawling into your bed at night! 

New Merch:  In honor of hitting 200 episodes, we’re doing 20% off sale on all S2D merch from now through the- 9th Head to badmagicmerch.com

Standup: If you want to see a very different side of Dan than you see here and possibly see Lynze in the crowd... well you will have to wait until this fall with the exception of two local shows in Spokane!

The Tunnels of Sand Hill Road

Wed, 28 Jun 2023 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan shares a scary and sad tale about the Sand Hill Road. The tunnels that run under Las Vegas are full of real, living people who are homeless but what if they are not only battling a hard life? What if there is something else down there with them? Then we visit  with the Warren's again.  A bizarre poltergeist tale in the 70's in Connecticut. Lynze has her usual two stories for you this week. Randomly themed with back to back tales about little kids, who are both creepy in real life and in the afterlife. 

200th Episode Next Week!  Quick note that NEXT week is our 200th episode. Whoo hooo!! Thanks for sticking around for 200 straight weeks of Scared to Death. Coming up on our 4 year anniversary. Just like for the 100th episode, we’ll turn the show into a little drinking game if you want to play.  The episode will also feature an extra story from me, and some extra banter at the end, similar to our bonus episodes, talking about the fun ride this has truly been.

This month, we have decided that in honor of Pride month, we are going to donate locally to the North Idaho Pride Alliance whose mission is to connect LGBTQIA+ people and allies to various community groups so they may create a more inclusive North Idaho through Networking, Educating and Advocating. We will be donating  $13,540 to North Idaho Pride Alliance and putting $1,505 into our scholarship fund.  If you want to learn more about North Idaho Pride Alliance, you can visit nipridealliance.com

The Black Flash

Wed, 21 Jun 2023 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan will finally have another one from Lynze's least favorite category of stories that we tell here… a claim of UFO sightings and alien abduction. The first story is full of claims of a young family from in the 90s, coming in from a small city in Eastern Australia.
Then we examine the story of the Black Flash. Did a shadowy, but seemingly physically very real creature terrorize the residents of a quaint little Cape Cod, Massachussetts summer town? Lynze dazzles us with three spoopy tales. An imaginary friend who might be a friend or might be something else. That is followed up with a strange situation with a woman calling for a man. But who is she and why is she calling out? The final story will probably give you a good chuckle and little chill.
 

New Merch:  Darren's Plumbing at 1800 - STD - GTFO. We'll make them Get The Fuck Out. Brand new Darren's Plumbing tee and long sleeve now available in the bad magic merch store. A cool illustration of Darren's Plumbing van parked outside a home clearly haunted by demons. Head on over to badmagicmerch.com and check it out!

You See Him Too

Wed, 14 Jun 2023 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

For the first strory, we visit LA’s Cecil Hotel.  It has been home to a LOT of murders, suicides, accidental deaths, and paranormal mysteries over the years. And at least two serial killers have called it home WHILE they were killing. An anonymous ghost hunter and true crime junkie decided to stay there herself and got the scares of a lifetime. For Dan's next story, we’ll explore three separate locations all around Oregon’s Nehalem Bay, another haunted hotel, an urban legend, and some cursed treasure.  Lynze has two kind of lighter tales but still carry their own level of supernatural elements. In the first story, several generations share an encounter with the same male spirit in the same house. Then, a tale about the best kind of ghostly encounter you could ever hope for. 

New Merch:  The classic moth design, now in color form, in the Bad Magic store this week! You may have seen the black and white moth shirt; one of our very first designs and still a bestseller today. This classic fan favorite now comes in a super cool muted neon color way, on tie dye tees, tie dye crewneck sweatshirts, and a coffee mug. Head on over to badmagicmerch.com and check it out!

The Sunway's Revenge

Wed, 7 Jun 2023 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan's first story is mostly set in a hotel located somewhere we aren't sure. Whoever posted this tale never gave an exact location and there are several hotels around the country that have had the name “Sunway Hotel.” It’s a nice twist on the creepy haunted hotel story.  The next story is about a mythical creature from Mayan mythology - the Alux, a creepy little creature some people still believe in - like the current President of Mexico. Lynze has three stories, each on the shorter side, which makes them pack a fast paced punch. Her first tale explores ghosts in the graveyard, then she guides us to a hostel for a spoopy tale and then she rounds out the episode with a strange story that is hard to explain without giving it away!

New Merch:  
A killer new Wendigo design now available in store. A super cool illustration featuring a pretty grotesque Wendigo-inspired creature, trapped in some sort of glowing magic spell. New collection features a tee, wall canvas, and Vintage inspired tank top with an acid wash print. Head on over to badmagicmerch.com and check out the new Wendigo collection now!

The Spirit of Letchworth Village

Wed, 31 May 2023 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

We are heading to an abandoned and allegedly haunted asylum in New York state - Letchworth Village. Some history first, mentions of the types of sightings claimed to have occurred there, and then a super creepy modern encounter claim. Next, we’ll explore some near death experience cases. Not everyone claims to see a white light when they die… some people have claimed to have literally gone to Hell and been given a little taste of what some believe awaits much of humanity in an afterlife. Then to Vermont for two tales from different locations: Brattleboro Retreat and Hamilton Falls. Closing out the episode with a hat man story that might leave you wondering if we have been wrong about the hat man all along. 
 

New Merch:  Very cool new 'Planchette' design now available. A simple 2 color design featuring a bejeweled skull planchette and our classic S2D logo and book of ghosts icon. You can choose between a tee and baseball tee. Be sure to also check out all the latest releases like the New Protection Ritual Collection, Melting Face Collection, New Stickers and more.  Head on over to badmagicmerch.com and check it all out!
 

Bad Magic Productions Monthly Patreon Donation: On both Scared To Death and Timesuck, we talk about a lot of death in a variety of ways. And while we as a people have a fascination with murder mystery, at the end of the day, the deceased was someone’s son, wife, grandmother, uncle and so on. When a family looses a loved one in a cold case, the affects of it are painful in ways we can’t understand.

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan has his usual two tales this week, one short and one longer. The longer story is about a strange inheritance. A man is gifted something very unusual with some strange instructions attached.  The second story is about an island down in the Caribbean. The supposedly haunted former site of a leper colony -  Chacachacare Island. Then Lynze will tell you one big tale entitled, Ghosts In The Graveyard!

Re-introducing the original Dybbuk design, a classic children's book style illustration of Dan and Lynze, fighting off the evil spirit that somehow escaped from a sealed Dybbuk box.

The Quiz

Wed, 10 May 2023 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Kicking it off with a great story, Dan shares something  NOT found from some online post. Or from any articles. This tale is based on some supposedly true stories. Sophie Evans found all this. She was clearly on the same page as I was last week, when it came to worrying about how modern technology and paranormal horror can collide today. His second story is a little one. Just a peek into the rumors that India’s Bhangarh Fort is not just haunted, but curse. We’ll look at two origin stories for the curse, and at a few claims of paranormal encounters. Lynze shares story of a family haunting turned attachment that started in New York and has traveled to North Carolina. Her last tale about a possible skinwalker had Dan in stitches. Not the usual aim here but that's how it shook out!

New Merch:  
For merch this week, a terrifying depiction of a poor soul's face burning alive. It's hard to imaging a more terrifying death that being literally scorched. The new 'Flaming Face' mini collection includes a tee, coffee mug, and wall canvas. This one truly looks gross but in the best of ways. Melting eye sockets, flaming bubbling skin... clearly this person is going through it. Head on over to badmagicmerch.com and grab your beautifully disgusting merch today!

The Monster In The Machine

Wed, 3 May 2023 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan's first story is really intense. It deals with a woman being tormented in a way not quite like what we’ve covered here before. A slightly new method of mental torture. While that first story is an alleged modern encounter, Dan's second story is an old one. It begins in the 17th century. Did the Devil use her to write a strange, mysterious, cryptic letter that was only finally decoded a little over five years ago?  Lynze will share just one tale about a  haunted family heirloom. 
 

New Merch: We also just dropped a bunch of fun new stickers! We made the werewolf drunk design a holographic sticker. Also have bleeding eyes, the buzz 103 bumper sticker, and tons of new Timesuck designs as well. Check out the sticker bin at  badmagicmerch.com
 

Bad Magic Productions Monthly Patreon Donation: On both Scared To Death and Timesuck, we talk about a lot of death in a variety of ways. And while we as a people have a fascination with murder mystery, at the end of the day, the deceased was someone’s son, wife, grandmother, uncle and so on. When a family looses a loved one in a cold case, the affects of it are painful in ways we can’t understand. The DNA Doe Project is a non profit with a simple humanitarian mission: to identify John and Jane Does using investigative genetic genealogy. We want help give some healing to those who has suffered such significant loss. Our donation amount is TBD right now as we are recording this in the early weeks of April. To learn more, please visit dnadoeproject.org

Standup:If you want to see a very different side of Dan than you see here and possibly see Lynze in the crowd, his final spring standup dates are coming up! Go to dancummins.tv for ticket links to shows in Bloomington and Madison!

Evil Unearthed

Wed, 26 Apr 2023 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

For Dan's first story, we go to the little mining town of Cripple Creek, Colorado, from 1892. Probably doesn’t sound too terrifying. But, just imagine dealing with the worst kinds of paranormal horror that we’ve talked about here many times in the sense of it happening in recent years, where you can go stay with relatives, or get a priest or shaman, etc., to perform some kind of blessing - but now you have no one to help you and nowhere to go. You’re just stuck - as in, snowed in a homestead cabin kind of stuck - with something evil. Then Dan shares some history and then a smattering of recent paranormal sightings from England’s very historic Colchester  Castle. Lynze will share two similarly themed tales this week about little ghost boys showing up for different people in different places! What does it mean when a little boy shows up? Anything
 

New Merch:  This one is for all you creeps and peepers who just can't wait for Halloween. The ones who would elect to celebrate year round. The 'Is it Halloween Yet?' tee is now available. Three vintage style halloween masks, kinda look like the old generic plastic ones, in a classic faded black orange and green color scheme.  Available on vintage cream and  creamsicle orange tees. Head on over to badmagicmerch.com and check it out!
 

Bad Magic Productions Monthly Patreon Donation: This months’ charity is Big Table, as you have heard us talk about already and we are excited to share that we will be donating $13,986 to Big Table with another $1,554 headed to the scholarship fund! To find out more about how to support Big Table or start a new chapter in your city, please visit www.big-table.com

 

Standup:If you want to see a very different side of Dan than you see here and possibly see Lynze in the crowd, his Burn It All Down standup tour is in full swing! Go to dancummins.tv for ticket links to shows in Bloomington and Madison! This is your last chance to see Dan before he takes a little breather over the summer!

The Char Man

Wed, 19 Apr 2023 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan will be telling the story of Char Man on today's show.  An urban legend coming from California that again will be exploring the intersection of fiction and MAYBE fact. Then he  shares the story of the only legally haunted house in the United States. 1 LaVeta Place Nyack, New York. Sometimes called The Ghostbuster House due to the so-called “Ghost Buster” legal ruling. 
Lynze has three incredible tales to share with you this week, the middle story being the scariest and sandwiched in between two head scratchers.  UFO's and attachments and ghosts, oh my!

Click Clack Slide

Wed, 12 Apr 2023 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan found the first story I’m telling today on the web - a story I was pointed to by Curtis Rioux, fan, friend, and incredibly talented professional animator. The urban legend of Click… Clack… Slide… I don’t want to spoil what that represents, but I’m guessing that many of our listeners have heard a version of this story - like Curtis - when they were kids. Can a monster be both a manufactured urban legend AND something you could truly encounter. That’s what we play around with in this story. Then, a man who was horrifying in real life continues to haunt people even after his death: John Wayne Gacy. 

Next, we dip back into true crime and go over a few locations reported to be haunted in the Chicago area, by the ghost of infamous serial killer, John Wayne Gacy.Lynze has two fantastic stories this week! Her first tale will make you think twice about the sounds of footsteps you hear on the stairs. Are they coming from someone or some thing? Then she presents a story with no explanation or resolution. A fan shares their tale of happening upon a room full of blood, but where did it come from? 
 

New Merch:  Really fun tee this week. The "I'm so tired my eyes are bleeding" tee is available now for those of you who know obscure sayings. Head to badmagicmerch.com

A Door That Can't Be Closed

Wed, 5 Apr 2023 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan's first of two stories is based on around something we haven't really explored  before. Astral projection. If you could train your mind to actually be able to take your consciousness OUT of your body… leave it behind as a sort of empty vessel - could something else enter in its place? After that, off to Hawaii for a little bite-sized bit of horror. Some paranormal encounters alleged to have taken place at the Honolulu Police Department’s training academy. Lot of horror on those little islands it seems. Then Lynze poses a great question about the paranormal and psilocybin. Can you bring back something from a trip? Lastly, a piece of jewelry seems to be the source of some kind of attachment. 

New Merch:   We heard some of you wanted Hawaiian button up shirts so... we got em!  The first tee is a fun cryptid pattern featuring cute critters from Logan's mind. Looks like there's clam shaped spiders,  bats, vampires, two headed snakes and more! Comes on a really cool Hawaiian style button up collared shirt with a left breast pocket. We also have a really cool Western style cowboy button up, featuring classy flower skulls.  These are hand cut and sewn so please allow a couple extra weeks delivery on these. Head on over to badmagicmerch.com and check these killer button ups out!

The Dover Demon

Wed, 29 Mar 2023 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

The first story this week is brutal. It deals with some real-life heavy topics of child and spousal abuse. A spirit that seems to feed off all of this torment and make it worse seems to be attacking a family. Then the  infamous legend of the Dover Demon.  Cryptid? Alien? Hoax? Did four teenagers really seem some sort of monster in a Massachusetts town just outside of Boston in the Spring of 1977? Then in the back half, Lynze shares a new "thing", a tulpa. She and Dan had never heard of it and the fan submission will make you wonder if the hat man himself is a tulpa. Then, a family tale of encountering some kind of shadowy figure and the remnants of what appears to be some sort of ritual while cleaning a home that is not their own. 
 

New Merch:  As it turns out, you absolutely CAN Coors Light your way into seeing cryptids and monsters. We're being told by many of you that one can  in fact become... Werewolf Drunk.  Check out the cool new tee at badmagicmerch.com featuring a double exposure design of a howling drunk werewolf and the phrase "Let's Get Werewolf Drunk"

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan's first story takes us to Maine - set in a remote farm somewhere near the 100 mile wilderness area of the Appalachian Trail. Rural isolation adding to the horror for one very unlucky family.  Then, the short story of the the Delhi Purple Sapphire, also known as the Cursed Amethyst - an allegedly haunted object. Lynze tells us three tales. The first two are real head scratcher's and will leave you with questions. The final tale is so creepy- just wait for it! 
 

New Merch:  Going a little more classic this week. A traditional monogram lockup on premium tees and hoodies available in a few colors. Very earthy vibe. I can see our camping and hiking listeners enjoying this one. Head to badmagicmerch.com

Dan's first story is set in the little ski town of Crested Butte, Colorado. It's a modern encounter story of a man who claims to have picked up and given a ride to one of the area’s most infamous spirits. And then  to the UK - to the rolling green hills of Gloucestershire , England, to visit the strange and haunted unfinished Woodchester Mansion. Lynze's first story brings to life everyone's fear of something chasing you up the stairs from the basement. To finish the episode, she tells us a spooky tale about something or someone trying to make life uncomfortable at a mental health facility.

The Ruins

Wed, 1 Mar 2023 07:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan's first of two stories takes place  in sunny Costa Rica. A college student explores the supposedly very haunted The Ruins - the remnants of old and massive church - and claims to come face to face with its infamous ghost.  Then, for the next story, we head to Connecticut to go over the legend of Hanna Cranna aka The Wicked Witch of Monroe.  Lynze has two tales that are thematic around driving and lost time. Her first story features a possible skin walker sighting and her second story will make you think twice about pulling off the freeway to find a restroom in the middle of the night, by yourself.

New Merch:  Brand new to the Bad Magic Merch store this week, a cool REDACTED tee & Zip up Hoodie. Cool retro typewriter style text design with large hand drawn Redaction marks. It's cool to imagine Scared to Death being redacted in some blacklist government paranormal or alien program as being a source of study or psyop.  Head to badmagicmerch.com

Bad Magic Productions Monthly Patreon Donation: This months donation is for $14,740 to Teach For America, a diverse network of leaders who work to confront the injustice of education inequity through teaching.You can learn more about Teach for America or get involved by going to teachforamerica.org An additional $1,640 is being put into the scholarship fund! Thank you to all of our patrons who are able to continue to support not only us but these amazing causes.
 

Standup:If you want to see a very different side of Dan than you see here and possibly see Lynze in the crowd, his Burn It All Down standup tour is in full swing! Go to dancummins.tv for ticket links to shows in Dallas, San Antonio, Indianapolis, New Orleans, Cleveland and more!

A Spirit Without A Face

Wed, 22 Feb 2023 07:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan's  first story comes from South Korea. He shares the legend of their “egg ghosts.” Sound harmless but it's definitely NOT harmless. Then he will share a smaller story that comes from Salem, Massachusetts - lore and a modern encounter centered around the reportedly haunted and very old for America House of Seven Gables. Lynze will tell us a tale about the possible sighting of a werewolf. What do you think about werewolves? Are they real? A final tale, a sweeter kind of story about a simple light being left on. 
 

New Merch:  Introducing the Yesteryear collection. A really cool vintage text based design on premium tees and hoodies. We also saw in the facebook group that many of you were looking for office supplies, particularly mousepads. Well now we got em. Head to badmagicmerch.com

Dan has an abandoned and haunted hospital double feature!  First,  to New Zealand for some history, paranormal lore and a creepy modern encounter inside the former Kingseat Psychiatric Hospital. Then, we’ll head to Texas and explore various ghostly encounters that have all taken place at the former Yorktown Memorial Hospital.

Lynze has a lengthy tale about how one women went from being a host for something to kicking it out and learning how manifest her own gifts. The final story for this week is a bit of a gentle tale. 7 out of 8 family members all see the same old lady who lives with them for many, many years.

House Of Death

Wed, 8 Feb 2023 07:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan's first of two stories is a haunted house story set in Manhattan. A home with just about the scariest title you could have. The brownstone that sits at 14 West 10th Street is known to some as The House of Death. Supposedly a LOT of people have died there over the years, and now it’s one of the most haunted homes in America. Then it's the tale of Jackson County, Florida’s Bellamy Bridge. Has the ghost of a young bride been haunting this bridge since the mid-19th century? Lynze also takes us to Florida for a haunted hotel room with an especially strong and scary entity. Then, a sweet story? It's hard to say if a young woman's mom is reaching beyond the grave to guide and protect her daughter. That's up to you to decide! 

New Merch:  
New tee in the store inspired by a story told in episode 168, THE SAN PEDRO HAUNTING, featuring 'The Old Man' from that story. 
So many new, cool things in store this year already. Don't forget we've got the Valentine's collection in store still  -  go check it out at  badmagicmerch.com

The Murder In The Mirror

Wed, 1 Feb 2023 07:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan has two collections of tales. The first story will focus primarily on one encounter tale. For that first story, we had to Canada, to the beautiful and reportedly very haunted Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel, located in the incredibly scenic Banff National Park, in Alberta, Canada. And then, we are off to York, England’s historic Treasurer’s House. Numerous spirits - including a lot of Roman Soldier apparitions - have been allegedly encountered in the historic residence built next the famous York Minster Gothic Cathedral. Lynze has a really big tale up top, about a family and their life long attachment with something evil and dark. For her final story, Lynze shares a short but disturbing UFO encounter. 

New Merch:  
By this point we've all heard of him.Some of us, have seen him. Waking from the hazy fog of a deep slumber, you feel the thick air turn blisteringly cold…. Your heart aches as it pounds faster and faster, feeling the room seemingly collapse in on itself….You can't move. You can't hear. Fighting to break free from the paralyzing nightmare you bolt upright in a cold sweat only to see the thing you've been afraid of your entire childhood…The HAT MAN. New Hat Man Tee now available at badmagicmerch.com

The Ghost of Emily Keseg

Wed, 25 Jan 2023 07:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan's first story is based in some true crime - the 1969 unsolved murder of 18-year-old college student Emily Keseg in Cicero, Illinois. Has her ghost haunted the campus of Morton College ever since? Then,  to the Santa Fe National Forest. What could explain a collection of sightings and strange disappearances around the three locations of the Holy Ghost Campground, El Camino del Diablo, and the Pecos Wilderness?  Is there a portal to some other dimension or world in this area? Lynze shares a very intense story about the legend of the Kunduz and then follows up with a lighter, but still spoopy tale from a haunted train ride! 

New Merch:  We have a bunch of bad ass Valentine’s Day cards over at BadMagicMerch.com  Each set contains 18 foldable valentines cards featuring 6 unique illustrations. Each set also comes with a sticker sheet so you can close your valentine just like we did in grade school!  Head on over to badmagicmerch.com and checkout the Valentine collection.

City Of The Dead

Wed, 18 Jan 2023 07:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan kicks off with two big stories today. Heading to Japan for the first one, to visit a Ghost Island. A very unique place. This one had us all twitchy! And then, we stay in Asia but travel all the way to Afghanistan to cover a collection of supposed sightings from some US Marines. Some really INTENSE sightings at a place once known as Observation Post Rock. Lynze presents us with a new horror character we have yet to meet, the pichal peri. What kind of creepy experience is there to share! And then, a death in a hotel room connects two people who quite possibly were never meant to meet. Is a ghost bringing them together? You decide.

New Merch:  You asked for it and it's here. Official DJ Honey merch in store now featuring me, DJ Honey. You can now purchase the official THE BUZZ 93.6 Tee shirt, representing Charlotte's number 1 adult contemporary station. Also a pretty accurate DJ Honey tee is available as well.

The Howling Village

Wed, 11 Jan 2023 07:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

The first story Dan will be sharing takes us to the Fukuoka Prefecture of Japan  to explore lore around the urban legend of the Howling Village. And then we’ll explore the legend of the Basano vase! Did these supposedly cursed object bring death to one owner after another for two separate cycles of tragedy separated by centuries? Is it made up? Or does it lie underground again, waiting for a new owner to find it, and to start another cycle of terror? Lynze has two awesome stories this week, per usual! Her first tale explores an experience  amongst friends and an Ouija board. While we never truly know what we might be talking to on the other side this one feels like a very authentic encounter with a lost loved one. Or is it? Wrapping up the show is a haunted house, more specifically a basement, tale. Is a 6th sense something that can be passed from one generation to the next? Let's explore! 

New Merch:  Incredible valentine's card set featuring some amazing spoopy illustrations. Each set contains 18 foldable valentines cards featuring 6 unique illustrations. You'll get Lil Lynze Demon, Lil Dan Demon and more! Each set also comes with a sticker sheet so you can close your valentine just like we did in grade school! If you don't want these in Valentine form, or you do but also want some collectable art, we do have these also available as mini canvases! These 5X7 framed minis are perfect for a cool display at home or in the office.  Head on over to badmagicmerch.com and checkout the Valentine collection.

A Mother's Love

Wed, 4 Jan 2023 07:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan's first story is set in Portland, Oregon, centered around Portland’s underground “shanghai tunnels.” There are miles of tunnels underneath Portland that connect it to the Willamette River - once used to transport goods in and out of the city and to ocean going ships. These tunnels also, SUPPOSEDLY, were used for human trafficking. Sailors getting “Shanghai’d” - kidnapped and forced to work at sea. Women getting forced into prostitution and shipped around the world. Some think this stuff never actually happened in Portland, others think it was frequent. Let's see what is out there. Then for Dan's second tale, the Cherokee legend of The Raven Mocker - a strange, evil spirit and the most feared of the Cherokee witches.  Lynze has two stories for you this week! First off, a tale that is sad but also heartwarming. A mother may have made a call from the great beyond to save the life of her child. Then a shared haunting, a screaming nun and a dorm room that just doesn't feel quite right.

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Wrapping up 2022! Thanks for being with us all year long, we look forward to so many wild, cool and interesting tales in 2023! Dan kicks off with a tale out of Chicago, about St. Rita's parish and very strange and terrifying encounter the entire congregation has on one All Saints Day. Then we go down south to Abbeyville, AL for the legend of Huggin Molly. Such fun tale of local lore. Lynze finishes 2022 with a story about one woman's life long attachment, an attachment that she and her sister seem to share, that might come from their childhood home. Lastly, a classic sleep paralysis story- or not?!

The Monkey's Paw

Wed, 21 Dec 2022 07:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan is  bringing back our annual Holiday Horror tradition.  For Victorian England, December was the spooky spooky season - not October - and this is where our Western tradition of telling ghost stories to scare one another comes from. Friends and family gathered around the fire after a nice holiday meal to hear some horror. And in honor of that tradition, for the fourth year in a row,  Dan shares the tale, The Monkey's Paw by W. W. Jacobs.  But first up, some horror from modern England.  A married couple bring their young son on a vacation to the countryside, where he finds some occult objects stashed away that lead to a terrifying evening and an early end to the vacation.  Lynze kicks off with a kind of sweet, kind of Christmas story. Then she tells us three quick hitter stories, all from the same person and all from the same frat house!

The Key Of Solomon

Wed, 14 Dec 2022 07:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan has a story about a couple teens who grab hold of an old book of occult summoning spells to start the show. They seemed to have opened a door that should’ve stayed closed. Then he shares with us  another story featuring some true crime basis. Convicted killer, Gary Mark Gilmore, was sent  to death row for a murder he never even tried to hid. Could it be because his mother brought something dark into her life, and then into her family’s life, before he was ever born? Lynze has her usual two tales. She begins with a life long attachment tale and then wraps out the show with a possessed teddy bear tale!

The Chop Chop House

Wed, 30 Nov 2022 07:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan has a bigger story set in Boise, Idaho.  Boise’s Murder House aka the Chop Chop house. This is a somewhat recent true crime story that  leads to numerous reported paranormal encounters. Very creepy story. Then,  a bit of tragic lore revolving around rural Colorado’s Third Bridge aka Ghost Bridge - and some reports of modern encounters there as well. Lynze switches it up this week with one, big, fat juicy tale. A woman is plagued by visits from the hat man. Her dad was potentially cursed long before she was born. Is there a connection?

New Merch:  Releasing in the bad magic store this week are deluxe jumbo bookmarks! These things are super nice, thick and velvety. Each set comes with 6 different bookmarks, designed to resemble the pages of an ancient witch's text. A perfect stocking stuffer for the holidays! Also now in store, new merch from Casko! I forgot about that random scenario I made up a few weeks ago - a Costco type store that sold caskets and also had random people handing out free snacks. Grab your Casko tee or hoodie to show your support for the world's leading wholesale casket manufacturer. Head on over to badmagicmerch.com and check em out!

Wed, 23 Nov 2022 07:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan's first story, the San Pedro Haunting is intense! A very active entity terrorizes a young mother, her two kids, and anyone else who shows up to help them. The next story is about the mysterious disappearance of a MASSIVE ship during WW1 - the USS Cyclops. Where the Hell did it go? We head to the Bermuda Triangle to examine this mystery. Lynze then shares two back to back haunted house tales!! One haunted apartment with the spirit of a man named Bill floating around and one little girl lurking in the shadows. 

New Merch:  
Time to dress up for the holidays with 4 brand new ornaments featuring Santa's favorite workers. These aren't your typical happy elves however. Take a dark look at the grim reality of being overworked for hundreds of years by a controlling and menacing slave boss.

And be sure to order by December 7th, to ensure you get your stuff in time for the Holidays!

A Haunting At Kaimuki House

Wed, 16 Nov 2022 07:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan jumps off the episode with a giant, weird tale. It's something new and fun to talk about in the world of “what if?” WHAT IF you were being “haunted”… not by a ghost, but by someone living in the same space as you, but living in a different time? Like a parallel dimension that someone also intersects with this dimension historical timeline wise. Someone living in the past, but also, living at the same time you live in. It’s a wild concept. The second story, much more traditionally scary, one of Hawaii’s most haunted homes. The Kaimuki House. Lynze has some fun horror for us this week too!! A Veteran's Home may have more than just the Veteran's living there but who?! Then the most insane, but oh-so-probably true story of one mans alien abduction. 

New Merch:  
What if aliens visited us for the first thanksgiving in October 1621. And if they did, what if they never left? Head on over to check out the new "Alien Pilgrim" tee and poster. Loving the 3 red eyes, shining medallion, the classic pilgrim hat. Check it out at badmagicmerch.com

We estimate that to be about $15k. If any fans would like to donate to the cause, as they have in years past, we are, again, only accepting Amazon gift cards, as that is the most effective way for us to shop. And just like the years past, Dan and I will be matching any and all donations y’all make up to $15K. If fully matched, we will have about $45K to work with. Every little bit helps, y’all. Just $5 or $10 adds up really quickly when we all chip in. If you can skip your weekly coffee to help out, I assure it, it really goes a long way. The average donation last year was about $50. If you would like to donate, go to amazon.com and purchase a gift card. When you fill out the box of whom to send this gift card to, simply enter the following email address: givingtree2022@badmagicproductions.com. That’s the first part, the way you can help and give to your fellow creeps and peepers!

The next part is for those of you who hav been asking how to be a recipient of the giving tree. This year, we are trying to really streamline the process. It’s going to be really straight forward. Starting Monday  November 21st at 12:00 noon PT, we will be accepting applications on our website, badmagicmerch.com. THIS WILL BE THE ONE AND ONLY WAY TO SUBMIT YOUR FAMILY.

We have come to the conclusion, that can we help about 50 families this year. We always receive far more requests than that and it’s a really awful process to pick names from a hat. It doesn’t allow people the chance to seek out help in a different capacity if they are not chosen. This year, the first 50 families to apply will receive help. The submission form will be live on our website until we have 50 families or until November 26th, whichever comes first. You can rest assured that if you filled out and submitted the application that you are getting help. No more waiting and wondering. Once 50 families have applied, the application will not allow anyone to fill it out.

With this being a new system, we are asking you to be patient. We will receive your application and then reach out to you. We will be shopping and sending out gifts from December 1st thru December 12th. We look forward to bringing our community together once again, to love and support one another.
 

Standup: If you want to see a very different side of Dan than you see here and possibly see Lynze in the crowd, his Symphony of Insanity standup tour will be back this fall. Go to dancummins.tv for ticket links to shows in Palm Beach, Austin, Boston, Portland and MORE!!

The Ghosts Of Murder Farm

Wed, 9 Nov 2022 07:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan has his standard two stories, both have quite a bit of history attached to them!
We’ll explore numerous claims of encounters with the paranormal that all revolve around recently deceased country music legend, Loretta Lynn. Loretta was a firm believer in ghosts, precognitive dreams, and other paranormal phenomena. Then we’ll cover hauntings related to a former subject of Dan’s Timesuck podcast. Belle Gunness. Mrs. Hoingy Boingy Uff dah! Lynze has three chill inducing stories to tell today! She starts with her first two tales of haunted homes- they are similar and yet, very different. They both involve the spirit of a little girl. Both will give you moments of feeling rather spooped. Then she closes out the show with an overwhelming tale of a seance gone wrong!

New Merch:  
In the spirit of keeping the spooky vibes rolling through the holidays, we've got an amazing new postcard set in the store this week. You'll get 16 deluxe thick postcards, 4 of each of 4 designs that all resemble the triangular shape of a Christmas tee in some creepy way. You've got Krampus, a XMAS tree cryptid, a festive yet spooky ghost, and a midwinter alien abduction. Only limited quantities of these have been made so head on over to badmagicmerch.com and grab yours now before they’re sold out. Head to badmagicmerch.com NOW!

Ghosts Of A Wayside Inn

Wed, 2 Nov 2022 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan's stories today are set in America and both in historically significant settings. Massachusetts’ Longfellow’s Wayside Inn and the ghost of a former employee - perhaps succubus of sorts that’s been haunting the place for over a century-and-a-half is the show opener.  Then we’ll head south a bit to Maryland, and look into various claims of spirits that may haunt historic Fort McHenry the site of a battle that inspired the writing of America’s Star Spangled Banner.  Next up, Lynze has some wild, cool and interesting tales. first off, a tale of a funeral director and his encounter with the Smoking Man. Then, a super creepy run in with an old hag, trying to lure in young children. 

New Merch:  Amazing new VHS lamps in the Bad Magic store this week. Check this out! Each handmade lamp features a real VHS tape that looks as if it was buried in the back yard. Evidence of something perhaps? The beginning of a new “found footage” horror movie? Or just the sickest horror-themed lamp ever created ? These are seriously so cool. Very very limited quantity of these -  DEFINITELY a specialty item, they’re handmade - so head on over quick to badmagicmerch.com if your interested and snag yours!

The Curse Of La Patasola

Wed, 26 Oct 2022 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan has a longer amount of story content this week, getting us ready for Halloween!  A murderous monster from South America and a disturbing disappearance from North America. We don’t want to give too much away about either. The first, if anyone is familiar, revolves around La Patasola, a vampiric entity that allegedly dwells in the forests of Columbia.  And the second story is the 1981 disappearance of an Ohio woman named Cindy Anderson. Lynze also has a huge amount of horror this week! Her first tale is the strange tale of a young woman who meets a household ghost that seems to be stuck in one portion of the house. Then, to close out the episode, Lynze tells us about a very creepy doll family that feels all too real.

The Beat Of The Drum

Wed, 5 Oct 2022 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

The setting for Dan's  first story is about a ghost said to roam the grounds of Alabama’s Haines Island Park. The second involves a trifecta of UFO sightings in Canada from 1967 that for many, are still the most concrete proof for UFOs that Canada has ever produced. Holy hell! Lynze's second story is a doozy! But first, she shares with us a slightly different tale where a fan submits a funny version of being a Darren. It's a gem of a story. Her second tale is just down right creepy.

The Whistler

Wed, 28 Sep 2022 06:30:00 +0000

Dan has a story about a young boy named Cody and his imaginary “friend”  who is NOT friendly and not imaginary. Then a collection of paranormal sightings in Plainfield, Wisconsin, that all revolve around the ghosts of either murderer Ed Gein - his mother, or his victims. Lynze has the most terrifying tale of the week with the folklore of The Whistler. YIKES! 

 

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

The setting for Dan's  first story is a Murder Mystery party. The premiss: since everyone is in costume, what if someone there is someone you don’t know. Someone… not alive.  In his second story Dan shares the short tale of man haunted by a few weeks of terrible nights from his childhood. Lynze taps into two fears we can all relate to: dark and lonely rest stops and dark and scary basements! Enjoy!

Even while Jeff was fighting for his life, he made it a priority to raise money for Kids Rock Cancer. Kids Rock Caner is an innovative program that helps children successfully cope with the unique emotional challenges that accompany a cancer diagnosis. Through the proven healing power of music therapy, Kids Rock Cancer helps children combat feelings of anxiety, depression, uncertainty and helplessness. Jeff  was just 55 years old. He is survived by his wife, Juli  and their two daughters, Abby and Casey.

Someone… not alive.  In his second story Dan shares the short tale of man haunted by a few weeks of terrible nights from his childhood. Lynze taps into two fears we can all relate to: dark and lonely rest stops and dark and scary basements! Enjoy!

The Legend of Goatman's Bridge

Wed, 14 Sep 2022 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan's first story is about  one of the subjects that creeps people out the most and, like with the doll story last week, it’s something we haven’t talked about much recently: Dopplegangers.  A young man has been haunted by SOMETHING at his family’s Montana lake cabin for many years. The second story is the Legend of Goatman’s Bridge. Who or what is the Goatman and how did he - or it - come to haunt a little rural area of Texas? Lynze's first story is a WILD one about a possible glitch in the matrix!! Then, with hunting season upon us, a bizarre story about a women in the woods. 

New Merch:  Awesome new collections in the store! Joining Mothman in the store this week is his hot sister "mothwoman". She's so dang cute, we put her on a notebook and pint glass in addition to a tee and long sleeve option. Logan put a nice little butt on her so I think I definitely need to order one of these for myself.  And we have another collection! A new Cool, Interesting, & Wild tee design sent in by creeper Meredith Messigner. We put it on a tee, tumbler, & notebook! Thanks for sending that in Meredith. badmagicmerch.com

The Shadow and The Doll

Wed, 7 Sep 2022 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan has his usual two tales! The first REALLY gives goosebumps. This is the most wicked haunted or cursed or possessed doll we’ve come across so far! Next, we’ll head to the Appalachian Trail and look at a couple examples of uncomfortable and frightening encounters with dark figures that not only have been reported to watch hikers, but also to kidnap and attack them. If you believe these reports to be true, this story is gonna make you think twice about any hikes  you may have planned. Then Lynze has two really awesome stories to tell this week! Going in the theme of being out in nature, she shares the story of a couple camping and being disturbed by some mysterious entity? creature? ghost? Finishing out the episode, she tells us the tale of a kind, sweet man who is also a skeptic who is then possessed and is skeptic no more. 

New Merch:  SO CUTE!!! The new Cute Cryptids Collection is now available for your little creeps and peepers. 4 unique monsters that are in fact, quite adorable. Did you know Logan even named them? Clarence, Milton, Lawrence, and Oscar! We also have an acid tie dye tee with all 4 for you adult creeps and peepers, if you want something monstrous to wear… but NOT terrifying. Head on over to badmagicmerch.com and check it out.

Right Ghost, Wrong Man

Wed, 31 Aug 2022 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan had two really fun haunted house types of tales this week. He kicks it off with a haunting at The Moana Surfrider hotel in Waikiki. It would appear that a death that took places many, many years prior has resulted in a female ghost hanging around. When a male visitor stays at the hotel, it would seem she thinks he is someone else. Mistaken identity gone wrong! Then in his second tale, we encounter a new set of Darren's in the Lee Family Haunting. Lynze also has her usual two tales. A clown haunting that spans from childhood to adulthood and possible demonic attachment, but not how you'd think! 

New Merch:  Amazing new Tall Man collection in the store now! Ready for you to wear to those cool fall night camp fires! badmagicmerch.com. Also! Labor Day Sale starting 9/2 at noon PST and ending 9/5 at midnight PST. Enter code LABOR22 for 22% off your order!

The Elevator Game

Wed, 24 Aug 2022 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan's  first story is about South Korea’s The Elevator Game. Is this nothing more than an urban legend? Or could this modern encounter story I’ll be sharing possibly be true? Could performing this elevator-based ritual somehow allow you to enter what sounds like Hell? The next story  is the legend of The Curse of Ca’Dario. A Venetian mansion, built in the late 15th century, that might actually be cursed or at least extremely haunted.  Lynze will explore predictive dreams, a concept that seems to rarely come up on STDP, in her first story.  It's hard to know when dreams are telling us the future or predicting or are just coincidental. The final story of this week is a creepy cabin tale. A man takes some time away from his life to find himself but does he find so much more than he bargained for? 

New Merch:  A new GTFO doormat requested by a handful of you actually. This is one we'll definitely want pictures of so
please be the weird person that no one wants to talk to, and grab yourself a new STDP doormat at badmagicmerch.com and then post a pic and tag @scaredtodeathpodcast on IG and FB.

The Boo Hag

Wed, 17 Aug 2022 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan kicks off this episode of Scared To Death with the lore of the Boo Hag or the Old Hag Syndrome. Is this a terrifying experince that can be explained away by sleep paralysis or is it more sinister than that? Then we are headed to the border for a collection of short stories about various encounters with spirits and sightings.  Lynze finishes up the show with a tale of one woman's connection to the other side as it pertains to her co-habitants at the nursing home she resides in. She also has a tale about dreams and what may come to us in our dreams- is it real or is it a shared experience or is it just a dream?

New Merch: Amazing new merch in the bad magic store this week. The long anticipated Scared To Death Tarot cards are here!
A full set of 78 Major and Minor Arcana cards all in a super cool hardcover lux box. Only limited quantities made so be sure to grab yours asap.

The Hamburger Man

Wed, 10 Aug 2022 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

The first of Dan's stories is a very strange urban legend that someone posting a modern encounter story thinks is all too real. The strange, twisted legend of Kansas’s Hamburger Man. For the second story, we explore the rich paranormal history of Cornwall, England’s Bodmin Moor, focusing mainly on the old Bodmin Jail located at the edge of this large, preserved, mostly undeveloped land expanse of land. Lynze shares two spoopy tales too! Her first one explores the age old concept of making a deal with the devil. It's a bizarre tale and will make you scratch your head, for sure. Finishing out this weeks episode is haunted college campus. We haven't a haunted campus in quite some time, this one is fun!

The Succubus In The Mirror

Wed, 3 Aug 2022 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

The first tale Dan has is one that scared Dan and Lynze more than any other story has  in awhile. It’s a story about what seems to be a particularly deadly cursed object.  It’s a random tale from a random forum - no real documentation with it.  The second story shows up all over the place. The lore of the Toronto Tunnel Monster. Does a cryptid - or do multiple cryptids - dwell in the elaborate and massive system of tunnels that lie beneath Toronto? Lynze is back to to her two usual tales, sort of. The first story is actual two from the same person. A young girl seems to be in touch with the other side and two tales, one of astral projection and one of premonitions show examples of the this girls connections to the other side.

New Merch: Thanks to everyone who picked up a copy of the Fan Stories Collection Vol 3! No idea how that has gone since we recorded this one quite a bit in advance. Hopefully really well! Can’t wait to get those in your hands. We  decided to release the cover art as a cool landscape wall canvas because, well... we love it. In case you haven't seen it, the piece features a trio of red cloaked figures making their way through an eerie forest. You can also now get the cover art on a black tee.

The Dentist's Wife

Wed, 27 Jul 2022 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING.

The first of Dan's stories this week is the more documented of the two. Dan will be taking everyone to the late 1930s, and to the Greater London area of England, to examine the haunting of Alma Fielding. In 1938, Alma Fielding, a 34-year-old housewife in Thornton Heath, a southern suburb of London, went to the press complaining of a poltergeist having invaded her home. Many, many people witnessed intense paranormal activity centered around Alma. The second story is the tale of a 19th century South Carolina woman who seems to have suffered an incredibly tragic death when she was accidentally buried alive. Does the ghost of Julia Legare still haunt her family’s tomb on Edisto Island, South Carolina? Lynze's portion of the show is made up of four small stories: a skin walker, a ghost, a self driving school bus and the woman in the mirror! Enjoy! 

New Merch: Super cool new Swamp Monster tee in the merch store this week. It features a rather large hairy beast with red eyes, lurking in the dark forest shadows, a very dark and moody depiction. Head on over to badmagicmerch.com and check it out!

Woman By The Lake

Wed, 20 Jul 2022 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING.

Dan has some fun in store this week! One tale is a little more traditional, and packed with a lot of good scares, and one that is very, VERY strange. The first is the story of  Lake Morena Campground, in Campo, California. An area of the outdoors that has been rumored to be haunted for decades. I’ll share some lore and an intense modern encounter story. The second story is the sorcerers of Chiloé . In 1880, on an island off the coast of Chile, several residents were convicted of belonging to a secret society of warlocks using black magic to intimidate and in some cases, even murder. The trial uncovered some very, VERY strange local lore involving monsters, wizard duels, and ghost ship, and more. Lynze and her fan tales take us back to The Crescent Hotel with an odd tale of exploring what lingers there. Then in her last story, her fan story is surrounded in grief and sadness but who said the spoops couldn't also be sad.

Underneath The Asylum

Wed, 13 Jul 2022 06:30:00 +0000

 

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan has his normal two tales this week.  The first is the story of East Bethany, New York’s Rolling Hills Asylum. He will cover its history, haunted lore, and a more detailed and disturbing encounter tale involving a former employee and patient. Then, we go one state over, and a couple hundred years back into the past to tell the story of Elizabeth Knapp’s supposed demonic possession in Groton, Massachusetts in 1671-1672, two decades before the Salem Witch Trials.  Lynze will share three tales this week! Her first one is about a man in a window that will have us asking if the house is haunted or the people inside of it.  Then the hat man pops in for a visit! And then, just for fun, less of a story and more of a confirmation picture!

Boy Outside the Window

Wed, 6 Jul 2022 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan has one of the most terrifying stories he has had in a while. Four residents of a memory care clinic die under rather suspicious circumstances in close proximity to one another and all after seeing a little boy with black eyes outside their window. Then in his second story,  we go with Dan as he explores the haunted tales of the rooms at the Battery Carriage House Inn. Lynze has one big tale this week. It all seems to start with a disgruntled family member who may have placed a curse upon another family member. The sighting of the hat man would be the first confirmation that more than one family member is seeing things they had not seen before. The plot thickens from there!

A Trip Into Hell

Wed, 29 Jun 2022 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Episode Notes:   Dan will have his usual two stories this week The first story follows a young man who decides to take a trip on LSD and ultimately, it costs his friend his life. But not how you think.  The second  story is set in Wisconsin -  the ghosts of Jay Road. A couple of possible deaths where the killers were never held responsible for their crimes seems to have led to some intense paranormal energy that still lingers in the area powerfully to this day. Lynze has a tale about a hat man who is not the usual kind of hat man. Perhaps he morphed into something else to wreak havoc on this young boy. Then,  a teenage boy gives into his girlfriend  and agrees to play with a spirit board. When that goes sideways, he regrets it. 
 

New Merch: Awesome new "Gravedigger" Tee and Wall Art now in the bad magic store this week.  A creepy skeleton in a disturbed shallow grave, a really cool and interesting, realistic graphic tee. Also available in JUMBO 30x40" framed canvas. Head on over to badmagicmerch.com and check it out!

Stargazing With the Dead

Wed, 22 Jun 2022 06:30:00 +0000

Episode Notes

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Episode Notes:  Dan has his normal two tales.  First we head to London to familiarize ourselves with the story of the Battersea Poltergeist. This case of one family’s reports of ongoing paranormal activity got a lot of press back in the late 1950s. Recently, it’s garnered interest again!  Next, we’ll head to Sao  Paulo’s, Dream Beach. A mix of horror lore and a modern encounter tale that is very creepy and entertaining.  Lynze shares the bizarre, sad and spooky tale of a nun who becomes pregnant and is forced to give up her baby, despite not wanting to. St. Ann's Retreat proves to be anything but a retreat. Then for her second tale, picking up where Dan left off on a previous story, Lynze also shares a tale of an awful curse!

New Merch

This week is an Annabelle exclusive merch drop! Terrebis Ad Mortem translates to Scared To Death! You can grab your new tee in 3 different colors now IF you are an Annabelle as this one is ONLY for Annabelles! Go the Annabelle section of badmagicmerch.com to pick it up.

You'll Never Escape

Wed, 15 Jun 2022 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING.

Episode Notes: 

The first story this week is from some dark, strange corner of the web , an undocumented claim of paranormal horror at a setting we’ve never explored before. An escape room. It plays out like a sequence from a horror film we'd like to watch. And the second tale is a another creepy little lingerer, much like last week’s curse tale. This week, Dan will share the tale of a mysterious disappearance and then reappearance. The details shared by the person who reappeared almost make you wish they would’ve stayed disappeared so we wouldn’t have to hear what they say happened to them. Lynze has two great stories to tell. The first one is both creepy and confirming. A young child with a more than an active imagination shares some premonitions with her family. Then in her final tale,  she explores the mistake a father makes when he tries to contact his deceased mother, using an ouija board. 

New Merch

It's been a while since we dropped a sticker dump so we've got a few to choose from. Got a Spoopy Bitch sticker, horror addict sticker, and  lil demon and nightmare man stickers.  Head on over to badmagicmerch.com and look through the sticker bin!

Death Curse

Wed, 8 Jun 2022 06:35:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Special Announcement:

We here at Bad Magic Productions would like to take a moment to express our sincerest sympathies to all of those whose lives are forever changed by the senseless shootings in Buffalo, Uvalde and Tulsa. Our hearts are with you. 

Episode Notes:

Dan has one giant story, and one little baby story. The first is an alien abduction claim, the second the claim of a curse. They both got a fair amount of press and you can find info on them from numerous sources. The first story is the basis of the 1993 sci-fi mystery film, Fire in the Sky. Was Travis Walton really abducted by and experimented on by  aliens? His story went on to be one of the most heavily documented alien abduction claim in US history. The second story involves claims of a curse. Did an actual witch curse a 35 year-old man in 1991? And did he die as a direct result? It sounds crazy - but the documented details of his haunting story are incredibly disturbing. Was Christopher literally scared to death?  Lynze has just one, big, fat story this week. She explores the possibility of a young man being caught up in something bizarre and disturbing. Could it be mental illness? Could it be far more sinister? 
 

New Merch: New “Nightmare Man” tee and coffee mug in the store at badmagicmerch.com. It’s disturbing.  We wouldn’t want to see this face in the mirror. 
 

Bad Magic Productions Monthly Patreon Donation:

Keeper of the Beasts

Wed, 1 Jun 2022 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING 

Dan kicks off the show with the haunted lore that surrounds Kentucky’s Bobby Mackey’s Music World. This place is so infamously haunted, Zak Bagans and the Ghost Adventures team explored if for the series premiere of their incredibly popular ghost hunting show. Do several different ghosts - and possibly some demons as well - haunt an old honky tonk bar that sits on the grounds of a one time slaughterhouse and mafia hotspot? Then, Next, the very unusual story of Audrey Marie Santo. Was this poor girl some kind of vessel for paranormal - perhaps even heavenly - activity? 

Lynze's first tale is not only about shadow people. It's also about the hat man. And what happens when the shadow people and the hat man team up.  Continuing with dreams blending into reality, story two will have you wondering if dreams really do come true, in the paranormal sense.

Back From the Dead

Wed, 25 May 2022 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING 

This first story is insane! Dan found this one in a deep, dark corner of the web. We are off to Georgia for a unique and twisted story of reincarnation. Then in his second story, Dan brings us a true crime/paranormal combo! We are going to explore some paranormal encounters possibly related to Lizzie Borden. Lynze explores the negative energy of a house and what it could lead you to do. Can an evil spirit be haunting you without ever exposing itself? Her last story explores a new topic: automatic writing. A wild, cool and interesting story about how automatic writing works and what happens to someone when they try it.


New Merch: So many of you asked for it! So here it is! A Bad Magician shirt featuring all 3 Bad Magic pods. Are you a Timesucker or a Space Lizard? Are you also a creep or peeper? Are you a Dummie? Then pick up this new tee meant for only the most hardcore Bad Magic listeners at badmagicmerch.com

Alien Breeding

Wed, 18 May 2022 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING 

The first story Dan has takes to us some folklore surrounding an Indiana cemetery, just outside of the town of Brazil, Indiana. Can completing a ritual at The 100 Steps Cemetery actually conjure up a devil of some kind who reveals to you the nature and time of your death? The backstory followed by a modern encounter are the combo for that one. Then we travel from Brazil, Indiana to the ACTUAL country of Brazil.  Perhaps some Brazilian paranormal force helped guide Dan this week? A possible skin walker sighting in Texas will give all of you pet lovers a bit of a spoop. Lastly, is a mom protecting her daughter or playing a trick on her from beyond the grave? 


New Merch: In the store now at badmagicmerch.  is a bunch of stuff all related to this summers Wet Hot Bad Magic Summer Camp this August 19-21. General Admission tickets still available! There are a whole variety of items. You can get hats, flip flops, a back pack, tee shirts, tank tops and more. It’s all limited edition. Order by mid-July to make sure you have it in time for camp.


Standup: Also - if you want to see a very different side of Dan than you see here, his Symphony of Insanity standup tour is back and running. Go to dancummins.tv for ticket links to shows in Chicago, Missouri, Milwaukee and Davenport this spring.

Bad Magic Productions Monthly Patreon Donation:  So excited to announce this months charity. Our good friend, Joe Dimeo told me about HALO Dental Network. As soon as I read about what they were doing, I knew it was really special and deserved our attentions!  While our amount to donate is still TBD as we are recording in advance, I do want to tell you what HALO is up to. Founded by Dr. Brady Smith, HALO Dental Network is a coalition of dental professionals who donate their services to the dental underserved. Services include dental implants, veneers, fillings and crowns. I watched a video about what HALO is doing and I was sobbing. I have taken for granted my access to dental care and the confidence my smile gives me. If you want to learn more, please visit halodentalnetwork.org.

The Summoning

Wed, 4 May 2022 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING 

Dan's first story is about a woman who may have had a demon summoned to attack her by a jilted man. Is it possible he is responsible for her torment? Then a strange tale of Polybius, a video game that may have ties to the CIA and MK Ultra. How could that be? Then Lynze shares a tale about a black hellhound, a possible omen. An apartment that seems to be occupied by more than just the renters inside closes out the show.


New Merch: New “Dance with the Devil” graphic tee in the store! A softer, less scary design safe for Creeps and Peepers alike.Head on over to badmagicmerch.com and check it out!

Slaughterhouse Canyon

Wed, 27 Apr 2022 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING

Dan's first is a VERY creepy true crime/paranormal combo. Little warning for those who listen with their kids. Gonna be talking about some of the crimes of one of America’s most infamous serial killers - Ted Bundy. He raped, tortured, killed, and terrorized in real life. That we know for sure. Does his spirit continue to instill fear in the living from the afterlife? Then Dan takes us to just outside of Kingman, Arizona to explore the legend of Slaughterhouse Canyon. Did a horrible tragedy occurring there well over a century ago lead to the canyon becoming intensely haunted? Lynze has two very interesting tales to share this week. Her first story examines a possible on-going and building haunting at Mac Dill Airforce Base. A couple has been experiencing a few things here and there but it all seemed harmless. Recently, a dark figure was spotted. Is this getting worse? Then we visit a young girl with an imaginary friend, or so it seems to be her imagination from the outside, looking in. In her reality, she is playing with a very real boy. So which is it? 

New Merch: Brand new 'Wrong Turn' tee, featuring the classic "Where are we?" situation: finding yourself in a car, lost on a dark & lonely backwoods road, destined for impending horror. Sound like your vibe?Head on over to badmagicmerch.com and check it out!

Return to the Mist

Wed, 20 Apr 2022 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING


This week both of Dan's tales are demon related. At least according to those involved. The first story comes from the Warren files. A lesser known tale of demonic infestation from Ed and Lorraine’s seminal book “The Demonologist”. We head to Vermont in 1974 to hear the disturbing tale of the Donovan family haunting. One woman’s Ouija board use seems to have led to contact with something that was NOT what it said it was - something that would terrorize the entire Donovan family for months. His next tale is known as the Exorcism of Gina. In 1991, ABC News’ iconic exposé news program 20/20 would air coverage of the exorcism of a teenage girl identified only as “Gina.” She’d be cured -  BUT - did broadcasting what was supposedly her demonic possession lead to the demonic possessions of others? Lynze has a possible hat man sighting. A young mother notices the familiar feeling of her home feeling "off". The feeling escalates to an interaction with something. What does it want- her or her baby? Wrapping up the stories for this week is a tale about a family curse and possibly a warning about the family curse from a long dead family member. It all builds to a super spoopy ending! 
 

New Merch: Black cats can be bad omens - but what about 3 eyed black cats?  What if there was a shirt with a black cat on it? What if you're the one wearing the shirt? Are you now a bad omen? If any of you get this shirt, let us know if wearing it makes anything weird happen.Head on over to badmagicmerch.com and check it out!

The Girl in The Cellar

Wed, 13 Apr 2022 06:30:00 +0000

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING.

Dan's top story is one of the scarier tales we have heard in awhile. A man in Missouri is pulled into a dark mystery in his new home when his nightmares become real. If you have an old cellar this one might keep you from going down into it for quite awhile. The second story is historical A 19th century primarily-London based tale of the boogeyman known as Spring-Heeled Jack. Very odd and interesting. It's hard to figure out exactly what the hell was going with this entity that gave a lot of kids - and quite a few grownups as well it seems - nightmares back in Victorian England. Lynze has her two tales of terror as usual. Her first takes place in some military barracks with an entity that shows up during a party. Then to wrap it all up, Ms. Martha, a spirit living in a historical exhibit, makes it known that she doesn't appreciate  anyone touching her things. 
 

New Merch: Very cool new tee in the Bad Magic store today. New “Hellraiser” design featuring some kind of demon building rings of fire or perhaps circles of hell. Head on over to badmagicmerch.com and check it out!

It Came From Within

Wed, 6 Apr 2022 06:30:00 +0000

"I pestered my mother into talking about what she remembers from that night. She was reluctant, but she did tell me something that I haven’t been able to shake:  That night, the whispers were talking to her specifically. They were telling her to harm her children..."

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING.

Dan has two traditional-type stories for this week! The first one takes us to South Carolina. A modern encounter with the occult, it seems, in the old haunted Newry Mill. An abandoned old textile mill long used as a teen hangout and drinking spot. Then, we head to the little town of Mitchell, Indiana, to check out a haunted house known as Whispers Estate. We dig into its history to find out how it got this name. Lynze knocks it out of the park this week and really creeps Dan out with a tale about a haunted dresser with evil intentions. Wrapping up the episode is strange encounter with a woman? A spirit? Listen to find out!

New Merch: New merch in the Bad Magic store again this week! A fun cartoon style creature/demon looking thing available in both a tee and sweater, head on over to badmagicmerch.com and check it out!


Standup: Also - if you want to see a very different side of Dan than you see here, his Symphony of Insanity standup tour is back and running. Go to dancummins.tv for ticket links to shows in Missoula, Tempe, Raleigh, Chicago, Salt Lake City, and Davenport this spring.

The Circleville Letters

Wed, 30 Mar 2022 06:30:00 +0000

"The tormenter called the Gillispies’ home phone. When Ron picked up, the caller declared he was observing the Gillispie house . Ron, furious, hung up and raced out the door with the intention of confronting him. Within minutes, he was speeding away in his truck. And he’d brought along a gun. And then a few hours later, Ron Gillispie was found dead behind the wheel."

Dan has two out of the ordinary tales this week. He first shares with us the story of the Circleville Letters. A bizarre occurrence  of random people who are all connected in some way, receiving letters from an anonymous sender. Much like The Watcher, we don't really know what's going on. Is it paranormal or just some creep, trying to wreak havoc? Next up, five young men disappeared in north central California  after attending a college basketball game, and why they went to where some of their remains would later be found is still a mystery. Crazy twist at the end of that story that makes it real, real creepy. Lynze has some great stories for us too! Three sisters all see and hear something in their home. Could it be their imaginations or are they really seeing this? Lastly, a fun and spoopy look at an old parlour game called "Up, Table Up."

Standup: Also - if you want to see a very different side of Dan than you see here, his Symphony of Insanity standup tour is back and running. Go to dancummins.tv for ticket links to shows in  Missoula, Tempe, Raleigh, Chicago, Salt Lake City, and Davenport, Iowa this spring.

The Wyrick House

Wed, 23 Mar 2022 06:30:00 +0000

“What’s your friend’s name?” she asked her daughter, hoping for something innocuous. Maybe the name of a pet, like Fluffy, or one of her friend’s names from school. “Mr. Gordy,” Heidi replied. “We play outside on the swings and in my room.”

 

Dan's first story covers the tale of the infamous Wyrick House. Although there isn't much known about the actual location of their home in Georgia, there is enough evidence of a haunting that an entire movie was based around this family's horrifying experience with a couple spirits. Dan's second story follows characters Maria and Akiko, who were simply looking to take a relaxing trip out of town. But their VRBO experience was anything but relaxing. Their woodsy cabin quickly turned into Hell on Earth. For Lynze's half of the episode, we explore some truly terrifying photos sent in by a listener, and then we wrap things up by spending some time in a haunted warehouse. Both stories will send a chill down your spine.

A Kiss in the Dark

Wed, 16 Mar 2022 06:30:00 +0000

TW! TW! TW! In Lynze's portion of the show, talk of infant death does appear. 

This show is explicit in every way. Take care while listening. 

"I leaned in, feeling her warm breath fluttering over my face. But then just before I closed my eyes, I saw her face change. Her eyes turned from brown to pitch black, and a sinister grin split her face. I jerked back in shock! Her face changed back to the beautiful girl she was before. Did I really see what I thought I had a moment ago?"

Dan has two New England-based horror stories, a couple of areas with haunted origins going back to Puritan times. First, we’ll visit Devil’s Hopyard state park in Connecticut. What may haunt the woods of this park at night? Has it been haunting that area for centuries? These questions lead to a modern encounter story. Next, we’ll head to Portsmouth, New Hampshire’s South Street Cemetery. So many entities seem to inhabit this area’s extremely haunted space and we’ll meet several. Lynze has some creepy tales to share too! She kicks it off with a possible twin doppelgänger.  A woman goes her whole life not knowing she was a twin while also seeing "herself" on and off for many years. Closing out the show is a simple story of someone or something knocking at the window. It's the question the listener poses at the end that did Lynze in.

The Exorcism of Maurice Theriault

Wed, 9 Mar 2022 07:30:00 +0000

"As we got out of the car, we all froze. In the light, we saw very tiny handprints, like that of a six-year-old, all over our car."

TW! TW! TW! Examples of suicide, sexual abuse, and murder are present in both of Dan's stories. The first is a shorter  tale that Dan promised to share here after a recent episode of the Timesuck Podcast when he talked about the 1980 New Mexico Prison Riot.  The now closed prison has been supposedly haunted ever since that riot, and today we explore those claims. His  big second story is the tale of Maurice Theriault. A name that probably rings familiar to a lot of horror film fans. Infamous demonologists Ed and Lorraine Warren of the Conjuring universe were part of an exorcism on Maurice in May of 1985. Lynze has her usual two stories but this week, it's a little bit different. She shares encounters from the same fan who has two unrelated experiences about 10 or so years apart. Both stories are scary and interesting in their own ways!

The Fortune Game

Wed, 2 Mar 2022 07:30:00 +0000

"Soft, dragging footsteps, growing steadily louder. Kyle held his breath. The footsteps grew louder - and he swore something brushed against his arm. It was ice cold. His heart was pounding. And then the footsteps seemed to pass them by...."

Dan's first story is set in America, but the ritual carried out in this modern encounter tale comes from Japan. Tsuji-Ura [Sue-Gee Or-uh].  Better known as The Fortune Game.  I LOVE this story. It’s all about how dangerous it can be to play around with trying to open doors into other worlds. In the second story we visit one of Hong Kong’s most notorious haunted houses, Dragon Lodge, and  looking into its history and the paranormal experiences some of its residents have supposedly had there. Lynze takes us to Cuba, again. The story of a mother's love may haunt her child forever. Wrapping it up, a tale of a possible alien abduction!

Just Beyond

Wed, 23 Feb 2022 07:30:00 +0000

"And then he saw something out of the corner of his eye. A man was running through the woods… with a look of fear on his face. He seemed to be definitely running away from something. Or from someBODY. Joe was about to call out to the man to see if he needed help when his mouth dropped. He saw, just as Vicky had before - that the man had no legs."

Dan has two tales that both involve a haunted place. Both involve numerous people claiming to see or hear the same ghost or ghosts. For the first, shorter story, we’ll head to the UK, down by Portsmouth just North of the Isle of Wight, to explore the ghosts of Hinton Ampner. A story of hauntings that  supposedly occurred back in the 18th century. Then, we are going to look into the crimes of midwest serial killer, Herb Baumeister, who buried numerous victims on his property in Indiana just north of Indianapolis in Carmel. Did his murders trap numerous spirits on Fox Hollow Farm, the beautiful estate where he lived and very, VERY likely murdered? Little true crime/haunted place mashup.  Lynze has two excellent stories and follows in Dan's footsteps with a little warm up and then a big scare. For the appetizer of spoops, she takes us to a college library where something or someone wants to have a few private moments, practicing their music. In her second tale, you best stay until the very end, because it all comes together ever so neatly. A young girl purchases an old vanity and within one day, she begins to see someone in the mirror. But whom?
 

New Merch: Got some new, VERY cool merch in the bad magic store this week. Our very own STD cryptid! You gotta look at this thing to take it all in. A flower for a head. Giant wings and talons. A giant tail? Most importantly - it just looks awesome. Very different look than other designs. Cool art on wearable fabric instead of in a frame. badmagicmerch.com

The Mannequins of Lawson House

Wed, 16 Feb 2022 07:30:00 +0000

"Now my mother stopped convulsing and sat up and got face to face with my grandmother. But her face did not look like it should have. And she spoke in Camila’s voice. She screamed in Spanish, “I’ll take EVERYONE FROM YOU, WITCH!” 

Dan's first story is not one that will jump right out and terrify you but it sure is bizarre and creepy. The Lawson House saw much tragedy around it over the years, literally. A fatal train crash and a series of fires that did not involve the house itself but perhaps came to be the place the lost souls took up residence. One day, a bizarre collection of mannequins arrived on the porch of the Lawson house, with out explanation. Where did they come from? Who was dressing them? Propping them up? Adjusting the poses? No one ever took credit for it and then one day, it just stopped. Weird. Then in story two, Dan takes us to South America to Argentina to explore a possible family haunting, foul play and multiple deaths. A family divide, a disagreement goes next level when one family member not only (possibly) kills one family member but also comes for others after her own death. It's a wild ride and will have you wondering if you should be making offerings to the saint of death. 

Lynze has 3 tales this week, so fun! She starts off with the most skeptical family, a family of non-believers who eventually all see the same inhuman woman in their dreams. Who is she and what is she doing there is beyond anyone's knowledge but this family works together to attempt to banish her for good. Then, off to Ohio for a haunted bar tale. A little palette cleanser of a story, not super scary but definitely makes you wonder. And then lastly, a pair of teens harass a neighbor who is possibly a witch. Did they take it too far when they cussed her out? Does she want revenge?

The Southend Werewolf

Wed, 9 Feb 2022 07:30:00 +0000

"He began growling, a deep, rumbling, angry sound. .. After a long moment, I realized that these were not my husband’s eyes at all. They were the darker, glistening, furious eyes of another species.”

Dan kicks off this weeks episode with his standard two. One long one, one short one today. And neither is a ghost story, actually. The first is about a man from England, Bill Ramsey, known in paranormal circles as “the Southend Werewolf.” Dan shares the very strange story of how he arrived at that moniker. The second story is about a mysterious disappearance, known as The Kinross Incident. We haven’t heard one of those in awhile and we all know how they panic Lynze!  What happened to a US fighter jet and the two men inside it over Lake Superior back on November 23rd, 1953?

Lynze has two of the best, scariest fan tales! As all kids do, some children are having a great time playing a game of hide-and-seek. It's all fun and games until they have an unexpected person join their game. We are all afraid of the basement and with this story, it becomes more clear why! Then off to Columbia where a police officer takes home a little something. A police officer working during the reign of Pablo Escobar sees more than his fair share of horrible things. What he never planned on was bringing one of those awful things home with him. 

New Merch:The STD lockup collection is now available for you to check out at www.badmagicmerch.com. No graphic look this time, way more subdued. A Classic monogram lockup of the show’s letters. It features a unisex black pom-pom beanie, black and red 3/4 sleeve baseball tee, and a choice of black or red regular tees.  Very cool collection for you to check out, especially if you want two wear some S2D merch but don’t want images of monsters or demons on something you’re wearing.

Look At Me

Wed, 2 Feb 2022 07:30:00 +0000

"They’d only made it a few paces when Louise’s boot snapped loudly on a twig. She winced and froze. “I hear you,” The woman sang in a high pitched voice. “Keep walking,” Nathaniel whispered. They made it a few more paces, when Louise heard the distinct sound of a third person’s footsteps, directly behind her. Louise felt a hand reach out and firmly grip the back of her arm."

Dan starts with  his two stories, like normal, but they’re a bit bigger than usual. They both take place outside and are both  classic ghost stories. The first comes from England -  Wychwood Forest - and the ghost of Lady Amy Dudley. Does the spirit of a woman who died long ago still roam the forest, searching for the man who may have had her killed? And can she kill? The next story takes us to Southern Oregon - to an old cemetery in Cottage Grove - a town Lynze and Dan once drove right on by when moving from Santa Monica to Couer d’Alene. Did a young couple confront a ghost who still wants to guard his land?

The second half of the show, Lynze brings us a story of a person who tells their tale of surviving an exorcism. So often on this show, there are questions about exorcisms and what might happen afterwards. Just last week, Dan told the tale of a woman who died soon after her exorcism. But not this guy. He lives to tell us all about it!  Her second tale is beyond creepy. A young couple moves into an apartment, meet all of their neighbors- except one. On a seemingly regular night, both people see two different people occupying the neighboring apartment. Are either of them real? 

New Merch:
Brand new Tales Of The Dead Tee in the bad magic store now. A fun yet dark & retro poster style graphic featuring Lynze, Me and some uninvited guests. If only these studio walls could tell us what they've seen.

You Never Know When You're Safe

Wed, 26 Jan 2022 07:30:00 +0000

“What floor?” I asked. “You first,” he said. “You first?” - “Who says that in an elevator?” Jesus. So creepy. Now I was starting to genuinely worry about this guy. Was I safe? Was he gonna attack me in the hotel elevator? Two middle-aged men duking it out? I pushed the 14th floor and he raised up his eyebrows, saying “Good choice! Me too. Safe travels.” I was just about to ask him what the Hell his deal was when the elevator doors closed and the lights all went out."


The first story takes us to Dallas, Texas where a traveling businessman has a long travel day turn into a true nightmare when he meets a stranger at the hotel bar.  It's a fun and scary story set in one of Dan's favorite horror locations - the haunted hotel. 
Next we head to upstate New York to explore the legend of The Flying Head. We’d classify it as…. a cryptid, we guess? This is a wild tale. We hope it’s not true. If it was, a pair of hunters had a bloody encounter with a monster - something supposed to be nothing more than an old Native American legend. Tale three is a bizarre and long standing relationship between a woman and a doppleganger. Or maybe it's more than one? It's hard to tell exactly what is happening and why. The last story of the show  has us hoping nothing ever crawls into bed with us! A woman recalls her awful encounter with something from beyond this world that joins her while she sleeps!

The Tanacu Exorcism

Wed, 19 Jan 2022 07:30:00 +0000

"After a few days of this, the monk and his nuns now carried her from her room and into the church, chaining her to a cross with her arms stretched out in a crucifixion pose while they doused her with holy water at the alter of Christ.  As they watched her arms strain against the ties, they wondered if they were hurting her and should untie her." 

The first story is known as the The Tanacu Exorcism. What everyone agrees on with this story, is that in the Spring of 2005, a young nun named Maricica Cornici died after collapsing after being tied up for about a week in a Romanian monastery. What there is a lot of disagreement on is what led to her death. Did a monk and some nuns horribly handle a case of schizophrenia? Or - was this truly a case of demonic possession? The second story takes place in Garfield Heights, Ohio. An anonymous woman bought her first house and joy and pride quickly turn into paranormal terror. Very unique type of haunting that I can’t set up much without giving something away. But this one is probably gonna be hard to listen to if you hear it right before you go to bed and you live alone. Story three brings us to Cuba! A young girl takes a horse back riding trip while on a family vacation. She discovers what appears to be a stone altar and, unfortunately, removes a necklace from the stone altar. By doing so, she interrupts a tradition in Santeria that helps spirits move on to the other side. Then in the final story, a couple encounters a mischievous ghost in a Dublin pub!

Girl In The Woods

Wed, 12 Jan 2022 07:30:00 +0000

"Hanging from the ceiling. Swaying back and forth, holding that cross just like I’d heard, giant grin on her face, and those dark, hateful eyes staring right at me. And then her mouth moved as I heard her speak. “I knew you’d burn when you were a kid, Jason, and I know it now. Your dad is waiting for you. HELL! Hell WAITS!” 
 

A truly terrifying story  of a murder turned ghost that haunts the woods of Lums Pond State Park, a beautiful park that flies under the radar! In the 1870s, an unnamed young woman from New Castle County ran away from home and ended up in what is now the park. This woman decided to camp out in the woods her first night away from home. A man found her and based on the state of her body as it was found later, he’d raped her and left her for dead. Before she died, some locals heard her screaming late it into the night, but they weren’t able to find her body until long after she died of her injuries. Her body wasn’t found for several days, actually. And her killer was never found. 

Then for story two, a very specific kind of haunting in a church basement, like one you will never forget. A woman from the local parish who was in charge of Bible study, one day, hanged herself in the church basement and it would appear, she still has not found peace in death. The back half of the show unintentionally takes on a theme of kids and attachments or hauntings, but in different ways. In story one, it would seem that a boy is born with the gift of seeing things that live beyond our realm, whether  he likes it or not.  In the final story of the show, a true skeptic gives into the other side when he is haunted repeatedly by the little blue boy with the maniacal grin.

The Legend of the Kushtaka

Wed, 5 Jan 2022 07:30:00 +0000

"We watched silently as Ronald swam towards his destination. And then suddenly….  Ronald disappeared from our view. He slipped under the water, hands flailing for a moment, before his hands sunk under as well. And he never came back up. Moments passed. We waited with bated breath for him to come up. Streaks of red appeared on the surface, pale at first, them blooming out into a giant scarlet cloud. Blood..."
 

Dan takes us to Alaska to explore a new kind of folklore, a new entity we have not yet covered on Scared To Death. The Kushtaka. According to northern legends from southern Alaska , the Kushtaka  are shape shifting creatures that are half man, half otter.  Not a combo that is probably going to immediately strike fear into anyone hearts when that’s all you hear. When you think of an otter, you most likely think of a cute, water-loving little creature known for floating on its back and eating shellfish. But the Kushtaka is not some cute little creature. It’s a large, bigger-than-a-man, soul-stealing shape-shifter. After Alaska, we journey to Lancaster, Ohio to hear the tale of the Mudhouse Mansion. The history of this house is a troubled one that begins with a tortuous slave owner who abused one of his slave so severely that one night, the slave murdered the slave owner and his entire family. Thus begins the Mudhouse's many bizarre activities. 

In the back half of the show, Lynze has two tales. The first one, though small, is mighty. A woman has what would seem to be is a lucid dream, at least that's what she thought. She thought the creepy man with wide grin and black hat were simply a nightmare. That is until her child told her not to follow the man. How could her child know about her dreams before she even spoke of them? Was it a dream afterall? Then a story of a haunted trailer! Lynze loved this story because while it had a few moments of being tense, it was really more about confirmation of what a ghost might be capable of that is not necessarily terrifying. 

New Merch: New year, new merch! Entomophobia is an extreme and persistent fear of insects.  It's what's referred to as a specific phobia, which is a phobia that focuses on a particular object. That's why we just dropped the new "Take my Hand" tee in the bad magic store!

Seven Sisters Road

Wed, 29 Dec 2021 07:30:00 +0000

"The monster dug his claws into the hood of their car, the claws making a horrible screeching sound as they dented the metal. It used its grip to propel itself upward, jumping on the roof of the car with a loud, crunching thud. “Drive!” Lori screamed!

This is it, Creeps and Peepers, the last episode of 2021!! We truly don't know how to thank you for making us one of the most successful horror podcasts out there! Are gratitude is real and your support means everything to us. We wish you and yours a healthy new year! 

In Dan's first story, we go to Aruba, Jamaica, ohhhhh I wanna take ya... WAIT. J/K! Just going to Aruba. A married couple takes a trip to reconnect and bring back the spark. All was going well until the final day of their trip. Jordan, the husband, insisted they leave on a late night flight and in order to make their flight. And to save time, they take a short cut. This short cut was the worst decision he made on that trip and it serves as a reminder to always trust your gut! Then off to Nebraska to Seven Sisters Road. A little road with a big history. A brother killed his seven sisters by luring them out, one at a time, to seven different hills where he hanged them. That energy seems to be hanging around to this day. A couple takes a short cut, just like the couple in Aruba, and will come to wish they hadn't!

Lynze has 3 stories this week! Going out with a bang! Her first story is creepy BUT you need to look at the picture to really have it sink in as to why finding 20 wooden crosses in a clearing during a hike is so damn scary. Then in story two, we visit a family who has two ghost kids living in their house. They seem to be totally harmless until one night, which is always how it goes. This time though, the kids might be the only thing that can save them. And then wrapping up 2021, a story about an encounter in insane asylum during a routine training!

Lost Hearts

Wed, 22 Dec 2021 07:30:00 +0000

"And when they entered the house they were “immediately greeted with spontaneous banging and knocking from around the house, but the focus seemed to be in Gottliebin's bedroom.”

To Germany! A story of a very bizarre and long possession are what Dan has to share at the top of the show. Lutheran Minister Johann Christoph Blumhardt was born July 16th, 1805 in Stuttgart, Germany. He would live in Germany until his death at the age of 74 on February 25th, 1880. Blumhardt became a famous faith healer in his day - and his fame began with a book he wrote, Blumhardt’s Battle, published in 1850 - a book that journaled his 1842 exorcism of Gottliebin  Dittus, a young woman from the small German village of Möttingen. And Gottliebin experienced, if we are to believe Blumhardt’s account - an incredibly intense and prolonged demonic possession.  Then Dan keeps the holiday tradition of an old timey Victorian era horror story to wrap up this holiday edition of Scared To Death.  Lynze takes a slight departure this week telling two similar tales that offer more confirmation and comfort in what might be on the other side. In her first tale, she shares the story of a man who spends the night at The Villisca Axe Murder house and brings home an attachment, but it's not what you think. Then in her second share, she tells us the story of a mother who lost her life but helped her daughter save her own. It's a sad story with a happy ending and just enough spoop in the middle!

The Dark Watchers

Wed, 15 Dec 2021 07:30:00 +0000

"As he was stopped in front of the garage door, a voice said, “Come here.” Allen prayed to God someone was playing a trick on him. Even someone trespassing on his property would be better than something he didn’t have an explanation for. He crept around the side of the garage and looked into the alley…

The Dark Watchers are dark, shadowy entities that lurk in the shadows and haunt the  Santa Lucia Mountains. Are they really there or are they simply an urban legend? Young couple Carlos and Julia find themselves coming face to face with the dark watchers when they get lost on a hike. The dark watchers don't seem to want to hurt them but they are getting aggressively close to Carlos and Julia. Julia makes an offering but will it be enough? 

Then Dan takes us to Wisconsin to hear the tale of the Tallman family. Like any young family on a budget, the Tallman parents are excited when they find a good deal on a set of used bunkbeds. Unfortunately, they will come to regret this purchase when they bring home more than they bargained for. The nightmares, the encounters, the disembodied voices can almost be explained away. It's the fires and the soot that have the Tallman's concerned. Will they make it out alive? 

Lynze has one, big, fat, juicy amazing tale this week! A life long following? Haunting? Shadow? What do you call it when you are pretty damn sure "you" have been following you around for the entirety of your life? A dopplegänger is supposedly a version of yourself that appears to you as an omen, a warning. However, there don't seem to be any rules about how long a dopplegänger might stick around before one might experience whatever it is they are there to warn you about. Lo, a longtime fan, has been dealing with her shadow friend for the majority of her life. It's been nearly impossible to find out what "She" wants. Or at least it seemed that way until her boyfriend passed away. Was that the entire purpose of "her" following Lo around? And if so, why is she STILL there?!

Bad Reflections

Wed, 8 Dec 2021 07:30:00 +0000

"I slipped off my blanket and put my feet on the floor as I realized that the bathroom light was on even though I distinctly remembered turning it off before I went to bed.  I cautiously creeped over to the bathroom and peaked my head around the corner. And I froze when I saw the creepy man from the front desk -  seemingly trying to drown some young woman in the bathtub!"

Dan has a lot of story to share this week! He starts with the tale of a young woman discovering a man in her hotel room drowning a woman to death. It all feels so real but is it? Can ghosts and the living interact in a way that we didn't think they could? Possibly. This evil man may have drowned a woman, but not in that moment. It's all a bit weird. Then it's time to visit Australia's Letta the Doll. If you brought home a doll for your children and the doll was talking to them in the night, you would think that would be the end of that doll, right? WRONG. Find out why Kerry Walton decided to hang on to this haunted doll. Dan wraps it up with three small tales of haunted mirrors. It will leave you understanding why Lynze will never buy an antique mirror! 

Speaking of Lynze, she has some juicy tales this week too! A story of two friends who stumble upon an abandoned barn that holds something unexplainable inside. They don't know if they discovered a rotting corpse or the remains of an occult ceremony. Either way, what they discover is less than pleasant. Finishing out the episode, we find ourselves staring out in the dark abyss of the wilderness to find eyes staring right back at us. What a scary thing, to be so vulnerable and then see little sets of eyes spying on you. The worst part is that even after these friends leave the woods, one friend still feels the eyes upon her. 
 

Bad Magic Third Annual Giving Tree Update: We are excited to share that we are able to support 77 families this holiday season! Way to go, Creeps and Peepers! We value your support of other humans. You the fans have donated $13,160! Dan and I are pitching in $15,000 and the Patreon donation is $16,000. That's a total of $44,166! Unbelievable!! It truly restores our faith in humanity to see everyone come together in such a beautiful way!

The Melting Clown

Wed, 1 Dec 2021 07:30:00 +0000

"Emilia," he said, turning back to her. "There are people out there coming towards us. People with hoods." "I know," she said calmly. "Sorry, Layton. I really do have feelings for you, but it has to bed fed." "Fed?" Layton didn't like the way that sounded at all. "The beast" he mumbled as he put on his shoes and jacket.

A very well documented murder, well actually murders, in Helsinki in 1960 are the basis for this extra creepy tale. Layton and Emilia are a young couple on a trip of a lifetime in Finland, loving life. That all comes to a halt when Emilia tries to offer Layton up as a sacrifice. It's a weird story that will make you think twice about traveling with your significant other. A truly haunted house that also houses haunted objects, possibly, is the basis for tale two of Dan's this week. The house that sits at 50 Berkley Square in London is supposedly home to rare objects, books and items of the occult. Did the Maggs Brothers buy this home because of its interesting past so that they could stash all of their bizarre artifacts there? So many deaths and sightings occurred here, it's hard to imagine anyone would want to own or occupy it. Lynze carries on with the haunted house theme. In the first story, Ana sees a little blonde girl in her house, regularly. Her family eventually confronts the ghost and her many friends, but they don't want to leave. Why do the children want to stay? And is it possible that they simply feel safe there? Lastly, the melting clown. MW has a tale that freaks Dan out. It's one of his greatest fears- Clowns. And that clown shows up in the most vulnerable of places. Many years later, MW finds out just how the spirits that haunted her and her childhood home got there in the first place. 

Bad Magic Third Annual Giving Tree Update: We will have an update on the next episode as to how many families we were able to help and how much money was donated! Since we recored in advance, we don't have those details yet!

Brown Mountain Lights

Wed, 24 Nov 2021 07:30:00 +0000

"But then one night, when he heard her screaming, he ran in and says he saw the boy from the painting crawling into his daughter’s room. When he screamed the boy thankfully disappeared. And he put the painting in storage."

Dan starts with a different angle this week by exploring the world of haunted paintings. It's a totally new space to explore and a really fun and interesting space to find new spoops. Then in his second telling, Dan shares many shared accounts of the Brown Mountain Lights. Lynze has a lot of questions which is really what all of these people have. These mysterious lights are inexplicable and have been going on for years. They are just so bizarre. In Lynze's half of the show, she focuses in on just one story, instead of her usual two or occasional three. A lifetime of hauntings that start when a boy moves in with his grandparents. Like all good hauntings, it starts off slow until he can't take anymore. This cycle seems to repeat its self a few times in his life. Another time he sees himself sleeping next to his girlfriend. Astral projection? Doppleganger? Lucid dream? You decide! This happens yet again. Finally, he has enough and tries to get rid of what has followed him for all of these years. Does it work?  

 

Bad Magic Third Annual Giving Tree Info:This year marks the 3rd annual Bad Magic Giving Tree! Over the last 3 years, we have taken what would be the monthly donation for a charity and kept it in our Bad Magic family.The first year, we only had the donation money.Then last year, the fans wanted to help. Dan and I offered to match the total amount donated, which was maybe a bit insane, as the fans donated over $18,000. Lynze and I also donated more than $18,000, plus the $11,000 from Timesuck’s Patreon and we had over $47,000 to spend!
This year, we are excited to announce the Bad Magic Giving Tree once again!  We will be using the December Patreon donation to kick start the fund for this year’s Bad Magic Giving Tree. We estimate we’ll be donating roughly $16,000 from Patreon. As of recording this episode, which is a few weeks ahead of time, the fans have sent in over $4,000. We are well on our way to giving some of you a little bit of love this holiday season.

The Impostor

Wed, 17 Nov 2021 07:30:00 +0000

“Something out here is trying to kill us. It wants us to swerve off the road and crash - it’s TRYING to get me to swerve off the road and crash."

Dan has two fantastic tales this week but Lynze's stories seem to be the one's that really give the chills this week. Dan tells the story of a tired, over worked cab driver in Vera Cruz. At the end of his shift, all he wants to do is go home and go to bed. A beautiful woman begs for a ride home and he is so captivated that he drives her home. When he returns the next day to take her on a date, he is shocked to learn that she has been dead for many, many years.  Continuing with the theme of seeing weird things while driving, Dan takes us to Scotland to visit one of the most haunted roads. Two brothers encounter so many bizarre things, so many spirits that it would seem impossible to not be real. Lynze, unintentionally, starts off her half of the show with another tale of seeing bizarre and scary things while driving at night, her first tale is a 2 for 1 special about the Smiling Man. While driving through their small town, the see the Smiling Man not once, but twice. Wrapping up the show is an insane story about a shape shifting doppelgänger. It's a long story that bobs and weaves. Pay close attention and enjoy your nightmares, creeps and peepers.

Over the last 3 years, we have taken what would be the monthly donation for a charity and kept it in our Bad Magic family.The first year, we only had the donation money.Then last year, the fans wanted to help.

Lynze and I also donated more than $18,000, plus the $11,000 from Timesuck’s Patreon and we had over $47,000 to spend!
This year, we are excited to announce the Bad Magic Giving Tree once again!  We will be using the December Patreon donation to kick start the fund for this year’s Bad Magic Giving Tree. We estimate we’ll be donating roughly $16,000 from Patreon. If any of our fans would like to donate to the cause, this year, we are only accepting Amazon gift cards. Dan and I will be matching up to $15k. If fully matched, that’s $46k. Every little bit counts to help fellow Bad Magicians - listeners of Scared To Death, Timesuck, and/or Is We Dumb. If you have $10 or $20 to give, it helps. The average donation last year was approximately $50 - and all the money went to helping Bad Magic families have a better holiday. If you would like to donate, you can simply go to amazon.com and purchase a gift card. When you fill in the box for “TO” simply enter the email address  givingtree@badmagicproductions.com.

How will we choose who we help? That’s the hardest part. But here is what seems to be the best way to handle it:We believe that every kid deserves a happy holidays - Christmas, Hanukkah or otherwise. And we know the pandemic has made it harder than ever to give kids a nice holiday for many families. The requirements for to get some presents for the family this year are quite simple. We ask that you be honest. And we ask that only those with kids reach out. We are happy to keep your names anonymous from the community and it is entirely your choice if you want to post about your gifts. Of course, we cannot accommodate everyone but we will do our best to help as many people as we can. We cannot pay your cell phone bill or your utility bill but we can send things you might need like diapers and socks and some things your kiddos might want, like new toys.If you and your family are need of help this holiday season, please email us at givingtree@badmagicproductions.com .We will gather all of the names, literally put them in a hat and pick at random. We don’t think it’s fair for us to choose who should be on the receiving end of this gift.  We are accepting nominations from now until TODAY, NOVEMBER 16TH. At that time, the names will be entered into the Giving Tree “hat” and we will notify ONLY the recipients ASAP to explain how they will receive their donations. We will be sharing updates as we have them, on how much money we have and how many families we think we can help!


Bad Magic Productions Monthly Patreon Donation: We’re donating $15,800 to the Bad Magic Productions charity of the month, IAVA - Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America. From their mission statement: We are here to serve and empower our post-9/11 veterans community. We believe these dynamic men and women represent America’s future – our next greatest generation. They are our true north, and everything we do is designed to focus on them and the positive future they bring to the world.They offer all of the guidance and support to where those resources are. Things like how to get and use their GI bill, help with housing, mental health support. After recent events with the Afghanistan withdrawal, and with Veteran’s Day coming up, this felt like the right choice this month.

The Hidebehind

Wed, 10 Nov 2021 07:30:00 +0000

This weeks episode has a strong theme of seeing things you just aren't sure of! We have so much non spoopy info to share with you  that we will keep this part short! Dan shares the folklore of the "hidebehind", something that is hiding in the woods! Then off to the Philippines  for  haunting of the elementals. It's a bizarre story with a surprise ending! Lynze has some info to share about the spirit in their house, followed by two fan tales. The first comes in  from Colorado (she misspoke in the episode and said Texas) from a LEO about being called into a domestic dispute that is anything but that. Then story two will have you wondering what exactly is crawling into bed with you at night. Don't be surprised if it's not your beloved pet.

Montana Nightmare

Wed, 3 Nov 2021 06:30:00 +0000

"You don’t want to be with me,” Kris replied, her voice gravely and low. Laurie realized that there was still laughter— a different, high-pitched laughter, at the same time as Kris was speaking. “You want to be with them. You hate me.”
“I don’t hate you,” she begged, trying not to let her legs give out. She felt like the dolls were closing in on her, could even feel the brush of cloth against her ankles, like they were beginning to surround her. She was about to become hysterical."

Dan brings it this week with two incredible stories! The first story is a tale of a couple who decide that, due to the pandemic, they are going to move out of their busy city and out to the mountains of Montana. It all sounds so sweet, almost dream like! The dream of making an old house their new home quickly goes sideways when a room of dolls is discovered. From the moment the dolls are found, everything changes. A possession in the Philippines is Dan's second story. It's a sad story, the story of a young girl living a hard life. Her hard life grows harder when she is incarcerated and then possessed. The ending of this story though, is a real head scratcher. Lynze admits that this weeks stories are a bit less spoopy than usual, she's starting to crack up a little bit. Her first story will take us to the World's Fair in St. Louis in 1904 where an abandoned baby goes on to lead a very interesting life and is possibly still quite interesting in death. Then, a chance encounter with the beast of Bray Rd. Two friends set out to cruise around and enjoy a few beers. When one of them needs to answer natures call, a horrific scene unfolds. Then, to end the show, a protective Grandpa makes a return visit to make sure his granddaughter remains safe. 

New Merch: Something special in the Bad Magic Merch store this week, an Annabelle exclusive collection. The Scared to Death gym time collection. Go workout while getting scared! So much fun stuff! A duffel bag, shirt, notebook, clipboard, water bottle, sticker and even an after gym towel. Go check it out for yourself at Bad Magic Merch!


Moment house Digital Experience: Hope you all had so much fun at first ever, Scared to Death Live Haunted Halloween - true tales of Hallow’s Eve horror. Hope we did too! We had to record this a bit in advance of that show. Huge thanks to all of you who bought tickets. And also just hope you had a great Halloween! Hope you wore the best costume, had the coolest jack o’lantern, and had the tastiest candy.

Born on Halloween

Wed, 27 Oct 2021 06:30:00 +0000

"The mist now surrounded both men, shrouding them in a haze. Slowly, the man reached out, gripping Cesar's hand tightly in his own. Cesar let out a sigh of relief. 
The man’s black eyes shifted to Mario. “Bcasqua” he said in a low, raspy voice. Before Mario could take another breath, the man pulled Cesar with him over the edge of the cliff and down they both went."

Dan kicks off the show with a classic tale most of you will know. The Hull House! This is the inspiration for Rosemary's Baby, a horror movie classic! Then story number two of this Halloween themed episode, Dan takes us to Columbia to visit the haunted falls of Tequendama. Back in the states, Lynze brings us to Colorado for the story of a very bizarre and possibly haunted silo. Enjoy all of the twists and turns of this one, literally.

The Halloween Others

Wed, 20 Oct 2021 06:30:00 +0000

"I guess it’s time isn’t it?” Mitchell was about to answer them when from behind he heard his own voice reply, “I guess it is." Mitchell spun around to see himself at the top of the stairs and he screamed. He ran down the rest of the stairs as his parents and the Other ran towards him."

Dan and Lynze are getting us ready for Halloween with a Halloween centric episode! Expect this episode and the following episode to have Halloween themes and overtones. Dan's first story is about a son, returning home to see his parents. Except his parents are different now, not quite themselves. Are they themselves or are they the other? In his second tale, a young girl has an imaginary friend who turns out to be anything but imaginary and is for sure, not a friend. Lynze presents the tale of three friends who tromp through an old, haunted dorm. They get out alive. Or do they? This is a tale of the taboo. Then in her second spoopy story, Lynze has a fast little story about two sisters who most definitely see a spirit in their house after a night of trick-or-treating!

Haunting at the Skirvin Hotel

Wed, 13 Oct 2021 06:30:00 +0000

"Then he heard it. Ever so faintly, but very distinct. The sound of a baby crying. And more unsettling, Bill felt there was something else going on. He strongly felt that that he wasn’t alone in his room."

Dan has an old tale of the Hayden Family. Did one member of their family curse them for all time? Would you believe it if it came to fruition? Then Dan takes us to Malaysia for the folklore tale of the oily man. Is he a human man, hiding behind the folklore or is it an incorrigible incubus, seeking out women to fulfill its needs. And then Dan gives us a little treat with a third tale about the very haunted Skirvin Hotel.

The Attachment from the Green House, is Lynze's first tale today. Could ghost or spirit start to follow you at a young age and in time, slowly reveal itself? Listener tale number one explores a lifetime haunting that is seemingly building up to something. Listener tale two is about a haunted house that seems to contain two different spirits. Perhaps one good and one evil?

We Simply Must Be Going Now.

Wed, 6 Oct 2021 06:30:00 +0000

TW: THIS EPISODE CONTAINS DETAILS OF A GRUESOME SUICIDE

"They way I heard it, they were both found in their bed, laying side-by-side on their backs, heads perfectly propped up on their pillows, and a note on the nightstand that read, “We simply must be going now.”

Dan has seriously creepy tales this week, guaranteed to spook even the bravest of Creeps. Tale one contains TW, please proceed with caution as this tale is explicit. A young woman left to fend for herself is unable to handle all of the tragedy bestowed upon her. When she completes suicide, her spirit remains unsatisfied. Has she come back to the scene of her death to collect more souls? The second story is that of The Berini Haunting. A family experiences a long series of paranormal events that seem to precede real life tragedy. When an exorcism is preformed, what is the end result? Lynze starts with a long tale of the White Woman, who has followed someone for all of their life. Is it possible to bring your attachment with you, everywhere you go, for you whole life? A second story that is short tale feels like a brief sighting of a spirit, possibly disguised as her partner.

Take My Hand

"She opened her mouth to ask another question… and then a gentle, cold hand rested on her stomach, right over her tiny baby bump. Marissa gasped. She watched silently as a pale white outline of a woman appeared directly in front of her, on the other side of the headstone. It them stepped towards her..."

WOW!! What bizarre and frightening tales Dan has for us all this week! He's calling it a graveyard creatures double feature! And that it is!! So many spoops fill out this episode of graveyard haunts! Then Lynze takes us to Georgia to find out what's happening with a man/apparition known as The Digger on Ghost Road. She wraps up the episode with a really peculiar run in with a family witch.

They Came From the Woods

We are very excited to announce that tickets are ON SALE NOW for the first annual Scared to Death Live Haunted Halloween - true tales of Hallow’s Ever horror!

You can get your tickets NOW for this Moment House digital experience at BadMagicMerch.com

The show is happening Thursday, October 28th, 6PM PST.

There will be a live chat room for those watching in real time on the 28th, and you’ll be able to rewatch it - or, if you can’t make it - watch it for the first time through Halloween night - and there will be some additional bells and whistles I’ll announce when we get closer.

Much like our previous La Llorona live show - these stories will never be told on a regular Tuesday night episode, or on one of the Patreon episodes.

You can only hear them at this Moment House Digital Experience.

This year, I’ll be telling three stories that have all taken place on Halloween night!

The first takes place at a Halloween party in 1973, where the scariest guest at the party is not someone wearing a costume.

The second story is set in 1985, when two extra spooky trick or treaters show up at someone’s door.

And the third is the Legend of Murder Creek.

On Halloween night, 1890, just outside of the little town of Akron, New York, a very troubled seventeen year old, Sadie McMullen, throws two little girls off a railroad bridge and into a small brook that will now be known as Murder Creek.

The nine year old dies and ever since, the angry, vengeful spirit of little “Nellie” Connor is rumored to show herself late on Halloween night.

And Lynze, of course, will be sharing more fantastic fan submitted horror. So many spoops!

So again - go to BadMagicMerch.com now to get your tickets to this Moment House Digital Expereince, October 28th event.

Witch's Bridge

Wed, 15 Sep 2021 06:30:00 +0000

"He stared down at himself with the same horrified expression. I knew right away he saw it too. As I opened my mouth to say something, he screamed. His feet fell out from under him, and I screamed too as his head hit the edge of the bridge, as I watched him seemingly get pulled straight down into the river."

In Great Falls, Montana, some police officers are among those who believe that one of their jail cells is haunted. The Old Cascade County Jail was built in the early 1900s, directly across the street from the west face of the courthouse. Bob Edwards, a Cascade County Sheriff , claims he saw a strange mist floating through through the old cells on a video monitor. It spooked him. And to this day, he has no explanation for it.

According to local legend, she was believed to dabble in witchcraft. Or at least that’s what she was accused of. One night, some scared local townspeople decided to form a vigilante lynch mob, and take what they considered to be justice into their own hands. They decided to kill who they believed to be a heretic. And when they made it to her house that night, they grabbed the poor woman, and they hanged her from a tree directly in front of her her home. According to legend, in her last moments, she cursed the house and the surrounding land and still haunts the area today.

Summer Camp should be a fun time to hang out with your friends and enjoy your freedom from your parents. It shouldn't be a place that you and your friends find themselves terrified of what comes in the night. In story one, Lynze walks us through a very bizarre summer camp story. After that, she has two more tales, both about haunted houses. The first house appears to very angry when the new owners begin to renovate. It's a classic haunted tale! The second haunted house comes with a big twist at the end, so stay tuned for the most chilling details!

New Merch:
Also, in the store now at badmagicmerch.com! We have a new demon tee shirt and mug in the store! Looks so cool. Reminds me of Japanese Oni artwork and masks. Been drawn and painted and carved a certain way for centuries.

Make Your Peace

Wed, 8 Sep 2021 06:30:00 +0000

"Then he heard Wei’s scream get cut off abruptly and then he heard a quick succession of thumping… like a body falling down the stairs… or being dragged. And then a moment later..."

In story one this week, we go to Beijing! A beautiful and ominous, ivy covered French baroque style mansion sits in a complex with another mansion inside an impressive courtyard in the Dongcheng District of Beijing. Originally built by the American Catholic Church in 1910 and then used from 1930 until 1949 as a Chinese language school to train foreign missionaries, the house then began a long, long period of sitting unoccupied, surrounded by stories of the vengeful ghost of a scorned woman haunting the grounds

And now, to Iceland! Hurrá is a popular bar/nightclub in Reykjavik, Iceland. Hurrá doesn’t just make the lists of the best pubs in Reykjavik, it also makes the lists of the “most haunted” spots in all of Iceland. Local lore claims that a young sailor was murdered on the shore where the bar now sits, many centuries ago, and his spirit never seems to have moved from the place where he died.

Story three considers the idea that being in touch with the other side might be something passed from one generation to the next when a red bouncing ball appears to multiple in one family. Story four has us encountering a house full of paranormal activity that seems to be coming from a gnome.

New Merch:
Also, in the store now at badmagicmerch.com! Revelations Tee, coaster, and coffee mug. This design reminds me of stained glass from some medieval church - but a dark church that would have gotten a lot of heretics burned - and it looks incredible.

Under the Ice

Wed, 1 Sep 2021 06:30:00 +0000

BIG TW ON THIS EPISODE! DAN'S SECOND STORY CONTAINS GRAPHIC DETAILS OF TORTURE AND MURDER. VERY EXPLICIT!

"A tap tap tapping beneath his feet made him jump. It sounded like something was just underneath the ice. Caleb watched, frozen in fear…. as the dark outline of a hand pressed against the ice from below. Tap tap tap...."

In Dan's half of the show, he takes us to Connecticut! A somewhat hilarious story of a man trying to move his house across a frozen lake leads to the house sinking. And while that is is own kind of horror, the real fun begins when the rumors flare. Supposedly, the house sinks to the bottom of the lake where the piano left inside is now played by ghosts. Turns out, there might be someone under the ice.

Then in story number two, we travel to Hong Kong. A sad, tragic story leads to one very scary tale. A young women is brutalize and murdered for stealing from her pimp. After dying at the hands of her torturer, she returns to seek her revenge.

Lynze has 3 back to back to back stories that are all just a little bit odd. A UFO sighting that was confirmed by multiple sources, a little girl conjures up a new friend in the mirror and possibly haunted hotel or the very least, a very sketchy situation. Combine all three for maximum spoops!

She Was the Darkness

Wed, 25 Aug 2021 06:30:00 +0000

TW: Lynze's story contains details of the death of a child.

"Rob couldn’t believe his eyes when he saw a scruffy, human like shape coming up through the ground.He felt a wave of fear engross him as he saw what he assumed was a literal zombie - an undead corpse - climbing up through a hole at the back of the mausoleum. "

There is a reason why cemeteries are so scary. The are home to the dead. What would you do if you saw someone crawling out of a grave? Find out who is back from the dead in Dan's first tale.

Dan shares a terrifying tale that will remind you that if it sounds too good to be true, it is. Jenna needed money and was desperate. When she has the opportunity to make $2,000 in one night for simply house sitting, she jumps at the opportunity. Unfortunately, Jenna is in for a very dark night.

Lynze has just one tale for us this week. It's a long and very scary tale. The Cave City of Balochistan is home to an urban legend. Supposedly, a man tried to exorcise his young daughter who was plagued by horrors of the night. He was unable to save her and now her spirit haunts the caves of Balochistan. When 3 friends go on a mission, only 2 come back. What happened?

The Seven Gates Of Hell

Wed, 18 Aug 2021 06:30:00 +0000

"There must have been a hundred sets of glowing eyes in front of them. Some of their figures were only shadows.But some of the closest ones, the ones moving towards them now, they could see their faces. Their bodies. All of them looked malevolent. All of them seemed to be coming directly for them."

TW: Dan's second story has a violent story woven into the horror story. Proceed with caution and take care while listening.

Toad Road AKA The Seven Gates of Hell is a classic haunting. Dan tells such a great sotry about two teens trying to prove their bravery and prove the rumors to be true. One gate, two gates, three gates, four, five and six... what happens when they cross over the sixth gate? Then a very fun flash back to our teen years with a story of a haunted house owned by none other than TLC singer T-Boz! An all around creepy, albeit sad, story that will make you consider following your gut about your kids friends.

Lynze gives us a palette cleanser for the first story, sharing a tale of a sweet moment between a skeptic and possibly, his deceased mother. An LDS missionary gets more than he bargained for when he asks the question, "How powerful is the Devil?". Can you conjure up the evil just as easily as the good? Closing out the show, Lynze explores the idea of a premonition via a dream.

Don't Stop

Wed, 11 Aug 2021 06:30:00 +0000

"Their friend said that if you drove through the tunnel at midnight to the hotel and called out the boy’s name… you might see him in your rear-view mirror, running up behind your car, flailing his disjointed limbs as he tried to catch you. "

Dan weaves horror this week, telling us about Japanese traditions of Kimodameshi. The folklore that comes out of Japan is possibly some of the best and most terrifying. In the summer months, they celebrate a season of hauntings. What do two friends get themselves into when they try to complete a test of courage? Then back to the states to famously haunted Biltmore Hotel in Miami. A honeymoon gone sideways when a very strong message is sent to the lovebirds that they aren't welcome. A hotel steeped in history and crazy stories, this haunted hotel story is a classic.

Lynze knows Dan and others will be divided on her first story, sharing the tale of a possibly powerful crystal that doesn't seem to be doing anyone any good. Can a spirit or entity attach itself so strongly to an item that the affected person just won't abandon it? Then, a really, really tough story of a haunted house that ends in tragedy. CAUTION! Please be advised that this story is graphic.

The Haunted House of Lunahuaná

Wed, 28 Jul 2021 06:30:00 +0000

"And then Julian felt the temperature drop and that same cold air on his right ear. And now… something new… a finger touching his back.A faint, white glow surrounded him. Something was behind him. He slowly turned around, tears running down his face, lip trembling, coming face to face with a white, womanly figure."

Peru! Oh Peru! We have not travelled to this part of the world yet, making this a whole new area of spoops. A couple of teenage kids get far more than they bargained for when they embark on a night time tour of the haunted house of Lunahuaná!

Then for a little twist, Dan tells various tales of people who have worked on horror movies and have seen a whole lot more than they bargained for, when the cameras stopped rolling.

Lynze has a life long haunting tale to tell of a woman who has been plagued by the same spirit her whole life. It would seem that this spirit showed up in her childhood and never left. Is it possible to carry the same spirit with you, for all of your days?

Robert The Doll is a famously haunted doll. He lives in a museum in Florida. If you choose to visit him, there are strict instructions on how you can interact with him. If you don't follow the rules, something bad might happen to you. Follow along as one fan shares his encounter with Robert The Doll!

What We’re Doing for Episode 100: Gonna have a fun drinking game for our 100th episode, so have some alcohol on hand when you listen if you like to drink. Rules will be determined by our Roberts and Annabelles. Gonna be a longer episode than the average episode. More banter than normal. Gonna be - hopefully - a lot of spooks and a lot of fun. Can’t wait to celebrate a hundred episodes of Scared to Death!

New Merch: Super fun, new red and black, “Not today, Demon!” tees in the Bad Magic Merch store. Not sure, because we’re recording this in advance , but possibly some Scared to Death volume two books are still left for preorder. Limited amount, so again, when they’re gone they’re gone.

The Legend of Danvers Asylum

Wed, 21 Jul 2021 06:30:00 +0000

Patient seemed incredibly lucid, showing no signs of psychosis. Charming, even. I asked about what she was seeing that no one else could see.


“It was just a few weeks ago when it started,” she said, still in a neutral, lucid tone. "The odd rashes began coming and going, I felt something… moving… under my skin. I went into the bathroom so I could have the best possible light. It looked like… and now you’re really gonna think I’m crazy - it looked like a tiny little hand pushing against my skin from the inside. And soon, there was a second tiny hand pushing. Like a little person - or creature - inside of me trying to get out."

Boy oh boy does Dan have some juicy tales to tell this week! The first story is especially terrifying. What if you could feel something inside of you, trying to get out, but no one believed you? Listen to the tale of woman plagued by what was inside of her and how she may have given it to someone else. Across the pond, is where we visit Alton Towers. Alton Towers have seen much death and tragedy throughout its long history: huge battles, murders, suicides and even a witches curse. Let's dig in on variety of those tales.

The Lady of the Locks is Lynze's first tale. A story about a mischievous wife who ran around on her husband and thus, her husband killed her. Or so the story goes. When a diver needs to go down into the lock system, where she supposedly drowned, he isn't sure if what he is seeing during the routine cleaning is his imagination or something more. While we are on the topic of things beneath the earth, let's consider a haunted bomb shelter, left over from days gone by. A high school student is locked in one, underneath his high school. And while that's a bit scary, it's not that big of a deal. Until he passes out and awakes to find tiny hand prints on his body. What happed down there?

Found You

Wed, 14 Jul 2021 06:30:00 +0000

"And then it started cutting back and forth between channels, fast enough that sentences began to form from the snippets of the on-screen words of various programs. Programs he didn’t recognize. I..Will…Find…You. He held his breath. Holy shit."

Dan is telling one of the best stories in his first sharing this week. A game of hide and seek, kind of. What if demonic possession didn’t always take the shape of speaking in unknown languages, cursing at priests, sharing knowledge one shouldn’t possess, or behaving like a mad, raving beast? What if sometimes it was much, much subtler - and therefore - in terms of spiritual warfare - much more effective? Find out!

George Van Tassel, a man who some called “the first hippie”, walked away from Southern California’s booming aerospace industry in 1947, not long after Kenneth Arnold’s infamous UFO sighting near Mt Rainer and the even more famous Roswell Incident that shortly followed - the two sightings that collectively, with other lesser known sightings in the summer of ’47 - kicked off the roots of modern UFO lore. What did George see in the Mojave to make him a believer? Tune in and find out.

Lynze closes out the show with two tales of family hauntings, both of which, will leave with some full body chills!

Scared To Death Volume 2: The books are on ON SALE NOW, Tuesday the 13th of July. They will be available in the store at the same time the episode drops, the stroke before midnight, Pacific Time. There will be multiple buying options, so do what is best for you. The first 1,000 books get autographed! And, once the books are gone, they are gone, so be sure to get this book and FAST!

The Monster in the Mirror

Wed, 7 Jul 2021 06:45:00 +0000

"And it was like the man could sense his fear. His grin got wider, green eyes shining with an evil amusement. If he ran, would the man run after him? Chase him? He’d just have to find out. "

The Legend of Old Green Eyes has our taking a journey down south to Georgia! There is a local legend of an unknown soldier who was decapitated after being struck by a cannonball haunting the old battlefield of The Battle of Chickamauga. When a group of professional actors assemble to recreate this battle, it seems to upset Old Green Eyes.

Possibly worse than being chased by the likes of a lost soul, is what you might be able to summon in a seance. Two friends get together and attempt to get in touch with someone or something beyond the veil. Just when it feels like they haven't been successful, they hear it, "Hello.... We're here...." and so begins their nightmare with the other side.

Nursing homes are inherently creepy so when you add in a haunting and an attachment, it's safe to say there are spoops galore! A nurse seems to have let her curiosity get the best of her and has now opened some kind of ability for a spirit, or two or three, to visit her family.

When your eyes play tricks on you, you might want to start trusting yourself. While we often catch glimpses of things that perhaps aren't there, we also, definitely see things that are for sure there. In the 4th and 5th stories of the show, we hear from fans that have possibly seen things that they weren't meant to see or things that they wish they never would have seen.

Scared To Death Volume 2: The books are on PRE SALE next week, Tuesday the 13th of July. They will be available in the store at the same time the episode drops, the stroke before midnight, Pacific Time. There will be multiple buying options, so do what is best for you.

The Widow Ghost

Wed, 30 Jun 2021 06:45:00 +0000

This episode contains themes of drug use and suicide; it is explicit in every way. Take care while listening to Lynze's first tale.

"According to legend, the Lai Thai is a jealous and vengeful female spirit - the ghost of a sexually insatiable, adulterous, cruel woman in life who is now crueler and more selfish in death. She roams the earth as a malevolent spirit - haunting the dreams of male villagers at night - always looking for another husband to take with her into the grave. It’s said that when she finds a man she’s attracted to - this succubus of sorts enters his dreams - a sexual Freddy Krueger who seduces him while he’s asleep, and then convinces his soul to follow her into the afterlife… leaving his body vacant and dead."

The legend of the Lai Tai (or Lai Thai) is one that will make you nervous to go to sleep at night, if you happen to be a young Thai man. This spirit sweeps through villages in Thailand, capturing the lives of men. Could you be next? Dan tells us all about the Lai Tai this week as a little warm up story. Then he brings us to McCook, Nebraska for the The Tale of the ghost of Devil's Canyon. When two friends embark on a day trip and one friend is really into exploring the paranormal, while the other friend tries to keep them safe, what could possibly go wrong when the creeper friend takes the reins? This is a classic campfire tale and Dan really brings you all of the chills with this one.

Lynze has a heavy story to start with. The story is sad, spooky, and uplifting, all at once. The ghost of the former owner of a home seems unable to leave. But perhaps, she has good reason to stick around. Is she there to haunt or to protect? And then, we are on a secret military mission in Yemen. In an already intense situation, could it possibly get any scarier than having your commander in charge start to unravel, to call out in words in a language they can't possibly know? Hear what happens to a team of special op's soldiers when then encounter the unknown.

Erratic Behavior

Wed, 23 Jun 2021 06:45:00 +0000

"Night after night for several weeks, the sound of scratching built in frequency, intensity, and volume.Eventually it felt as if at any moment - some great and terrible beast might suddenly rip a hole in the floor, wall, or ceiling and come crashing into the room.And then, for ten days in late 1960, things would escalate far beyond the sounds of scratching."

Ursula and Sabina Video: https://bit.ly/3iQL2wj

This week feels like Dan really went for it, hard. One incredibly terrifying tale of poltergeist activity and one tale that will just leave you scratching your head. Oddly, both stories end with the subject(s) of the story seemingly disappearing! How bizarre!

Lynze also has some very fun stories this week. She has back to back stories in the south. One in Savannah on an old plantation, a haunted house with a dark past and one in North Carolina, of recent times.

What scares you more- haunted houses, poltergeists or unexplainable and possibly possessed behaviors?

It Feeds

Wed, 16 Jun 2021 06:45:00 +0000

"C whirled around, momentarily picking his eyes up from the floor, and he found himself staring straight into the mirror. And directly BEHIND him, he saw a dead man.

A dead man who was weirdly blurry around the edges.

As C watched, frozen and horrified, blood began to pour out of a hole in the man’s chest, spattering the floor, the walls, and even against C’s clothes"

Our first tale is about The Hammersmith Ghost Murder Case! Starting in November 1803, the British citizens of Hammersmith were worried about the typical concerns of daily life we all still worry about - money, health, taxes, family squabbles, neighborhood crime, etc.They were also worried about something not of this world.They worried that something paranormal was going to attack them like it had allegedly already attacked some of their neighbors.

Now, in our second story, we explore the lore of other cultures. Every culture in the world has its own unique spin on the supernatural. Every religion has their own demons - or demonic equivalents - including Hinduism. From what we understand, the Hindu religion teaches and warns about three primary groups of evil entities. First the Bhuts [ boots ] also sometimes called bhutas [boo tuhs]. The Bhuts are supernatural creatures - often called ghosts. Usually they are described as being the sprit of a deceased person, often considered to be perturbed and restless due to some factor that prevents the spirit from moving on.Next there are Pretas [ prey-tuhs ] - eternally hungry, zombie-like entities. They are the wandering, tortured souls of those who were false, corrupted, compulsive, deceitful, jealous or greedy in life.These dark entities wander the earth at all times, generally unable to be seen. Always miserable. Always looking to feed.And then there are the Pishachas [ pee shakas]. The worst of the dark spirits. What happens when one encounters a Pishacha?

Closing out the show, we have two tales, both which feel unbelievable. A story of possible alien abduction and a loss of time and as story about how psychics might have more power than we want to believe.

Mr. Fun

Wed, 9 Jun 2021 06:45:00 +0000

"Take my hand, Kira. You don’t want to make me mad do you? I’ve waited too long already” “Please,” Kira whispered, frozen in place, “you’re scaring me.”
“I know,” said the man, flashing a predator’s toothy grin - “That’s why you come here, right? To be scared? Being scared is fun. That’s why you all went on the rides! But you didn’t go on mine. And no one can scare you like I can, Kira? Nothing will scare you like what I can SHOW you? Once you SEE what can BE - NOTHING ELSE WILL MATTER.”

Dan knocks it out of the park with not one but two amazingly haunting tales. He begins with the tale of the man for Taured. This story explores the concepts of the multiverse, an idea explored by many people. Could it be possible that our lives as we know them are only iteration of our lives? What would you do if everything you knew to be true, to be fact, was taken away from you? It's such a bizarre concept to dig into a new topic for some big creep factor on Scared To Death. It's Dan's second story that throws Lynze into a tizzy. Have you ever been in an amusement park and felt yourself overcome with fear of being lost? Or worse, being kidnapped? This story has so many layers of scares, there is no way you listen to it and get a good nights rest.

Lynze brings three stories this week for a smattering of shadow people tales. Which of the three is the most horrifying? Probably the first tale. The story might be short and sweet but the photograph as the end is haunting. Story two and three don't necessarily pack in a ton of spoops but they will make you question what shadow people are, why they might be here and how their world works.

Still Screaming

Wed, 2 Jun 2021 06:45:00 +0000

"The mysterious man now noticed their headlights and turned to face them.
He was hunched over, collar up, shielding himself from the rain. It looked like he was wearing some kind of long, shabby black coat.While continuing to stare at them, he took a few steps forward, and Sarah flinched back into her seat.Something was off.

Who was this guy? No normal person would be standing on the overlook at this time of night, would they? Where was his car?"

Dan has two truly creeptastic tales for you this week! He starts off with a bizarre and deadly plane crash that ends with the pilot going missing. But what if he isn't really missing, well, not really? Rumor has it that the ghost of Larry Stevens continues to haunt highway 107 in Greenville, South Carolina. It's entirely possible that a young couple not only saw him but gave him a ride, one dark and stormy night.

Keeping the spoops going, Dan takes us up to Canada for tale of the possibly haunted school, Humber Heights Consolidated. The school had been used to house the dead after a hurricane struck the town in 1954. All of these years later, it would appear that some of those who were stored in the temporary morgue never did move on. Hear the tale of a Canadian law officer and his not one but two creepy experiences at Humber Heights!

Do you remember the myth of bloody mary? Well, Lynze is ready to give you a refresher. She shares the story of two brothers who manage to conjure up something, in the dark, in the bathroom. Is it bloody mary? or is it someone else? And then we hear the tale of a family, an entire family, who seems to be haunted. No matter where they go, it would seem they are always surrounded by haunting moments.

Living Dead Girl

Wed, 26 May 2021 06:45:00 +0000

"A strange and satisfied smile then appeared on his face and he asked, “Did you play with Masha?” He paused and then added, “Maybe she’s bored.” At that moment, the familiar sound of Masha’s music box rang through their home and Elvira jumped up in fear. Yuri also seemed afraid and he too stared at the doll in disbelief.

Anatoly was unfazed. He was smiling now. “See…” he said calmly, “she’s just bored.”
He then went over to the sofa to sit by the doll while his father held his trembling mother in his arms."

Dan has two very odd and interesting stories this week! He starts off with the tale of The Dorothea Puente Murder House. This story is similar to a lot of the haunted tales that begin with murders we’ve told, but maybe scarier than most because while it’s typically the VICTIM or the VICTIMS of the murder that haunt a dwelling, in this tale, there’s seem to be some pretty good evidence that the killer that once roamed the rooms of the Dorothea Puente Murder House taking lives, may still be there today, possibly still taking lives. Then for story two, Dan covers some new ground by taking us to Russia for the creepiest doll story you have ever heard. It's disturbing on so many levels. We can't give to much away here so tune in to find out why the dolls are so very creepy!

Lynze balances out the second half of the show with three tales, all with the theme of children. Children seeing things, hearing things, protecting themselves from things. In each of the tales she tells today, there is an element of spoop that takes it to the next level!

The Monster Under The Bed

Wed, 19 May 2021 06:45:00 +0000

"And then soon, they went from concerned to outright scared when Kristine walked into the kitchen one day to see Natalia pouring Pine-Sol into Kristine’s coffee.

Kristine says she ran over and stopped her immediately, hoping, praying, that Natalia was just messing around.


But then when she asked Natalia what she was doing, she said that Natalia replied, “I’m trying to kill you.” "

Dan takes us down a strange and peculiar story hole this week. His two stories are a bit off the beaten path. He starts with the story of a family who adopts a Ukrainian girl only to find out, she might not be who or what she claims to be. A lot of people have drawn a comparison between this story and the movie, "The Orphan". The movie existed before this strange occurrence, so who knows if the family was overreacting because they had seen the movie or if they were inspired to eliminate a threat to their family, quickly, because of the movie. The second story from Dan takes us to Pyramid Lake for some really peculiar details. From giant fish to water babies, Pyramid Lake seems to have some very interesting things living, or not so living, just under the water.

Carrying on the theme of the strange and unexplained, Lynze has two juicy tales. The first one is of a haunted house. Perhaps the house didn't need to feel creepy, it could have been a kind spirit but it all took a turn for the south with a simple touch. Did this family accidentally invite something in when they began a remodel? You will think twice about painting your room after this one! In her second story, Lynze has a good old fashioned tale of the monster under the bed. Everyone has felt that kind of fear as a child but what would you do if you actually saw it? A listener has a really hard time ever sleeping again...

New Merch: Cool new Scared to Death popcorn bowl in the store at Bad Magic Merch dot com for horror movie nights. Since it has a lid, could also use it a storage container.

Scared To Death

Wed, 12 May 2021 06:45:00 +0000

TW: There are some pretty graphic sexual true crime details in this one if you want to skip it.

"But then a week later, Remy fell into another trance. And she started speaking to her husband in that same foreign voice - a voice that was angry this time... And then this voice gave him the names — AND the phone numbers — of four different people Teresita knew who could identify this jewelry as belonging to Teresita. And then the voice, after urging him again to PLEASE contact the authorities - it went away again. His wife snapped out of her trance. "

It's a bizarre episode of Scared to Death! Dan has two rather interesting stories that walk the fine line between true crime (which they are, for sure) and paranormal (which they might be, who knows?!). Dan kicks off the show with a very well documented death of Cindy Elizabeth Hack James. It's a topsy turvy twister. Cindy is a women who someone wants dead, but whom, or what, is after her? For SEVEN years, Cindy is harassed, attacked, stalked and eventually killed. But who is the killer?

Then, in the second story of the show, Dan is certain he has evidence of the paranormal and after life. When a middle aged woman is found dead in her apartment, with no signs of forced entry and no enemies to speak of, it's just the beginning of the most bizarre murder mystery. Teresita was a popular and well liked woman, so when she turned up dead, the questions began swirling. Police would never have predicted just how they would solve this case. It would appear that Teresita was uninterested in finding eternal rest, until she brought her killer to justice, even from beyond the grave. This singular tale has Lynze somewhat excited for what might exist, beyond this world.

Listen in closely and follow the details of this Scared To Death: Unsolved Mysteries episode.

Lynze also some very unique and spooky tales for her half of the show. In story one, we are off to Columbia to hear the tale of a son who is deeply concerned for his father and the dark forces that seem to be at play in his life, both in the world and beyond. Is Oscar's Dad in trouble with money, women or the devil? Something bizarre sure is swirling around Oscar's Dad and if he isn't careful, it might also consume Oscar. Then, in story two, Lynze leaves it up to you to decide if this tale is a case of sleep paralysis or if it's something else entirely.

"You Found It."

Wed, 5 May 2021 06:45:00 +0000

"Then, as he backed up a step, he saw the top of Victor’s head crane up towards the ceiling, and he heard Victor say, “Hey, were there always chairs on the ceiling?” Andrew’s blood ran cold. The ceiling? What the Hell was he talking about?"

Can a house come alive and lure you in? And try to make you stay? In Dan's opening episode story, he tells the tale of two childhood friends, Andrew and Victor. The pair begin work on a very old, Victorian house and the odd occurrences start from the moment they enter the house. What is happening in this house remains a mystery... until the very end. Then it's off to France for the story of the Green Lady of the Château de Brissac. While visiting the ancient chateau, various accounts of a woman in green have been reported. Sometimes she simply floats down the hall. When she looks up at you, her face isn't quite right. Why is that? Tune in to find out just what happened to this woman.

Lynze goes back to the basics with a fan story about the Hat Man. In her first story, fan Mike tells his tale of how the Hat Man has been following him for 20+ years. Mike seems to have invited him in when he was just a teenager. It all started with a scrying mirror. If you weren't afraid of playing with mirrors before, you might be now. Then, for her second story, Lynze will have you traveling from Hawaii to Kentucky. A young couple with their sweet daughter move into a home in Kentucky after her Dad was transferred there. The moments of the house revealing its hauntedness come in waves and cause the family to GTFO. Then, for a little bit of fan fiction! Young fan, Trey, sent in an original work. Check it out!

Cult of the Undead

Wed, 28 Apr 2021 06:45:00 +0000

"He crawled up on top of where she lay. He sat down on her chest and stared into her eyes. And she could now see he wasn’t a little boy at all. He was something… else. Something dark and dead - a ghost of some kind. A monster. She actually told mom she thought he was a monster. And this little monster placed his hand on her chest this time, just below her neck and she felt the cold again. Colder than before. And she felt the fear. It was heavier than before."

Dan brings a whole new kind of terror to his first story this week. What seems like your typical story of an older person starting to forget things and misplace things leads to a horrifying reality of no one believing an elderly woman about the "bad little boy" she keeps seeing. He comes to her, when she is in bed and alone, in the middle of the night. He whispers to her. He wants to take her. No one believes her and her nightmare takes a deadly turn. For story number two, Dan takes us to Cumae Archaeological Park, into dark tunnels. There are many mysteries and legends surrounding Cumae. When two young, broke college kids embark on a journey into the hidden parts of Cumae, they believe they are in the trusting hands of their tour guide. However, their tour guide has something very different in mind; he is looking for a different kind of gratuity for his hard work.

Lynze opens her half of the show with a not so scary tale but a tale that makes you ask lots of questions, none the less. Reincarnation. Do you believe that we can come back to this world, even after we leave it? A sweet little boy seems to know far too much about things he couldn't know. His family is confused by the knowledge he possesses but they aren't scared. They are hopeful that this youngster is just a former family member. Then, in story two, Lynze takes us on a wild, wild haunted house ride. You will, for sure, need to suspend your rational self to accept this as reality. The fan who wrote in acknowledges that the tale sounds tall but he insists that it is 100%. And like they always say, only one story has to be true to open the possibility of all of them being true.

New Orleans Cannibal

Wed, 21 Apr 2021 06:45:00 +0000

This weeks episode is EXTRA special!! Dan and Lynze recorded on the road, from one of the most haunted cities in America, NEW ORLEANS!!

Dan and Lynze love NOLA, which is no secret. This week the pair was on the road and wanted to try out recording an episode while away from their recording studio in Coeur D'Alene, ID. As the world starts to reopen, Dan will be touring again for stand up, so now seemed like the perfect time to test out the traveling recording kit! If you're considering watching this episode on YouTube, note that this entire episode is in complete 360 degrees!

With that out of the way, get ready for four stories that all take place in New Orleans! Does is get any spoopier than NOLA themed stories, recorded in NOLA.

"Guests began to witness what they would later think was the Chef’s ghost in the dining rooms or near the front door. Sometimes smiling at a guest. A few even claimed he asked them if they’d enjoyed their meal.

Does the Chef not know he’s dead? Has his love for Brennan’s tied him to the building? Is there something paranormally “sticky” about the location, for lack of a better term, that allowed hi spirit to be bound?"

Dan has a great story to kick off the episode, about one of NOLA's most well known families, The Brennan's. The Brennan's own many restaurants in New Orleans and thus, have a hold on some of the oldest buildings. When one of their top chefs passes away, it would appear he is not quite ready to hang up his chef's hat. In his second story, Dan shares the tale of Louis Congo, a former slave turned executioner, and one man's possible encounter with him. Louis was freed from slavery only to be subjected to a whole different kind of hell. Did Louis enjoy torturing and killing people? Is it possible that his spirit still haunts Jackson Square, awaiting another person to break on the wheel?

Lynze also has two very intense New Orleans stories. Taking place very near Jackson Square, a fan submits a story that begins at the Moon Walk. A security guard has the strangest encounter with someone that he can see but more importantly, can small. Is this a vision, a spirit or a homeless person? Stick with the story to find out if whatever it is, has the ability to leave the Moon Walk and follow the security guard to another location. In her second story, we offer a TW about suicide. Lynze shares the story of the NOLA Cannibal. Perhaps you have heard this tale. A story of drug use and mental illness combined with love and the aftermath of Katrina, a man murders and chops up his former lover, cooking and preserving her body. Years later, when two friends visit the scene of the crime, is the spirit of the deceased trying to communicate her story? Tune in to find out!

Ernie Rivers' Poltergeist

Wed, 14 Apr 2021 06:45:00 +0000

"One of the most intense incidents was when Ernie sat doing his schoolwork at the dining room table and he thought he saw movement from the side of the stove. He thought he saw a dark figure moving past him. A dark figure in the room with him. He soon caught the motion again out of the corner of his eye, and then, following it, he watched one of the pepper shakers from the top of the stove start to levitate before rapidly floating over and landing beside him. "

Known as the Project Poltergeist, Dan's first tale is the first documented case of poltergeist activity taking place in one of American’s government housing projects. It’s been called the Project Poltergeist. The strange tale of a lot of paranormal activity following a young man, Ernie Rivers. Who is the poltergeist? Is it Ernie's Dad? Did he come back to take Ernie away? Keep your mirrors covered, if nothing else, when listening to this story. After getting spooped in story one, Dan takes up back to Japan to investigate multiple ghost sightings in the wake of the 2011 tsunami. These aren't your average ghosts who hide in the shadows. No. These ghosts are in plain sight, they look like they are alive, just like you and I.

Lynze balances out the more traditional stories with two stories that may just get under your skin. To start, Lynze takes us on a hike and camping. When you are in the middle of nowhere with no one else close by, except your tent mate, and screams cut through the night air, you might not want to trust that those screams are human. For the last story of the show, we follow along one sisters journey of watching "the man" who seemed to be attached to her brother, until the end. Was the man death, coming for her brother or was he there to warn of death to come? One will never know.

New Merch: Another reminder for the April 22nd Scared to Death LIVE show.

The Legend Of Moll Dyer

Wed, 7 Apr 2021 06:45:00 +0000

"She could go in there, she told herself. She could go in there and see what was happening…. Angela got up and crept out to the hall. Standing in front of her daughter's door, she heard something… It was almost two in the morning.

And then she heard it more clearly - a low, heavy chanting. And then that same laugh, the laugh from before. Angela felt sick all of a sudden.

Some sweat slipped down Angela’s back. She reached out her hand to open the door and as she curled her fingers around the doorknob, she abruptly withdrew them - the doorknob was red hot.
She stifled her scream. "

Do you know the legend of Moll Dyer, the inspiration for The Blair Witch Project? Moll was “an old hag,” according to folklorists, who lived in a ramshackle home. Something about her terrified the local people - her uncommon height, her uncomfortably intense, piercing eyes.
Locals thought she was a witch. Was she? Or just another victim of paranoid persecution? After experiencing Moll Dyer, stick around to explore the ghost ships that show up on the coast of Japan every year. We’ve talked about ghost ships on Scared to Death before.
Even skeptics who don’t believe in ghost ships, who find a ship’s crew completely missing or a ship showing up with a dead crew, to be pretty unsettling. So much of the vast oceans of the world are still unexplored - and often so empty - so devoid of human life.
You can easily end up being the only person around, nothing on the horizon for as far as the eye can see. What is happening on the coast of the Ichikawa Prefecture?

Lynze has a tale this week that is beyond scary. A story about the lamp postman. Who is he? What is he doing out there, just standing there in the night? When Meg pulls into the driveway late at night, should she make a run for the back door, while he watches or should she circle the block and see if he goes away? What will Meg do? In Lynze's second tale, we travel to La Jolla, CA to go for a deep-sea dive. It's not what might be lurking in the dark waters that you should fear but rather who? When three divers go down but only two come out of the water, you will wonder what happened to diver number three.

UPCOMING LIVE SHOW! Thanks AGAIN to those of the Creeps, Peepers, Roberts, Annabelles and Bad Magicians who have already bought tickets to the April 22nd Scared to Death LIVE show.

Haunted From The Grave

Wed, 31 Mar 2021 06:45:00 +0000

"In 1947, three supervisors all turned up missing one afternoon. They were found unconscious and locked in a small boiler room in the southeastern part of the plant.

None of them could explain exactly what had happened to them.
But all three agreed they’d been approached by a man they didn’t know shortly before they blacked out. A man whose skin appeared badly burned and who angrily shouted at them “to push some steel.”

What if your workplace was haunted? What if the ghost haunting your work was a former boss and he meant you harm? That is the story Dan weaves in his first half of episode 82. Dan takes us to Alabama to hear the story of the supposedly haunted Sloss Furnaces factory and their most famous resident ghost, James "Slag" Wormwood. For the second story of the first half of the show, Dan takes us over to Rhode Island to hear the story of a young woman so riddled with guilt to keeps trying to contact the dead to gain forgiveness. This particular story was reported to Ed and Lorraine Warren's New England Society for Psychic Research, back in the late '50s. When two young friends experience a tragedy while playing on the jungle gym, one of the friends dies. As the years go by, who is haunted? Is it the friend who is living, dealing with the guilt, or is the deceased always trying to reach out?

Going for a whole new fan base, Lynze tells a tale submitted by an LDS listener. While on a mission in Mexico, does this elder come into contact with a spirit while witnessing a possible possession? If so, could it be that this spirit has taken up residency with the elders who witnessed its banishment? Stay till the end for an interesting detail as told by another elder. Moving from Mexico to the middle of nowhere suburbia, Lynze transports us to a haunted station. When a young man is working the graveyard shift at the local radio station, of course, he invites his friends to come hang out. One of his friends wants to practice his musical talents and records his jam session. When he plays back the track to bathe in his greatness, he hears a lot more than just his rendition of "Tom Sawyer".

Wed, 24 Mar 2021 06:45:00 +0000

"Something was moving towards them - coming from down the hall. Carlos swore he could see something back in the shadows. Whipping their flashlights around - they DID see something. They all three saw a small, dark, evil creature quickly approaching them from no more than twenty feet away…"

This weeks Scared To Death is truly unlike any other episode! Dan and Lynze welcome a VERY special guest, Mustafa Gatollori from A&E's Ghost Hunters!

The episode begins with Dan sharing the tale of the Worley Hospital in Pampa, Texas. The iconic Worley Hospital has been abandoned for many years after originally being built in 1929 to accommodate the fast growing oil town. Two cousins decided to buy the building with hopes of turning it into a B&B. Those hopes and dreams come to a halt when both cousins begin to experience paranormal activity. Dan and Lynze will talk to Mustafa about how he and his team explored the hospital to try and help the cousins out.

But before that happens, Dan has another frightening encounter in the Worley Hospital to share. Three young friends break into the old building after hearing tales of its haunted hallways for years. They don't last very long. Between the rats and the faint giggling of someone who isn't really there, the friends get their fill and make a run for it.

After chatting with Mustafa, Lynze takes us back to our usual content. She has two stories this week. The first story is told by a fan who thought she and her friends were just making up an imaginary friend only to find out they may have brought something else to life. Listen to the story of Emily Rose (not that one). From there, Lynze exposes us to a new piece of Mexican folklore. The tale of a Lechuzas Brujas! Supposedly, these are women who sell their souls to the devil to gain super natural powers but the price is that you become an owl. Hear the story of one families close encounter with the Lechuzas Brujas.

“Hold Him Down!”

Wed, 17 Mar 2021 06:45:00 +0000

"After having spent a night in room 314, a doctor and his wife mentioned an encounter with something paranormal at checkout one morning. The doctor had been awakened several times by a gentle tickling sensation on his feet in the middle of the night. In his sleepy state he was convinced that the comforter or the sheets were somehow responsible for the sensation of something lightly brushing his feet. But then, the final time it occurred, he looked down to distinctly see a little girl tickling his feet.

He said she smiled and then vanished."

Could you spend a night in most haunted city in the United States, Savannah, Georgia? Could you spend a night in the most haunted city at a haunted hotel? If you said yes, congratulations, you are 100% Creeper. Dan goes old school with two tales of haunted houses, back to back, in Savannah. The first story takes place at The Hampton Lillibridge House, which partially set the stage for Tale of Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil. A really bizarre story with many deaths that lead up to one final, incredibly questionable death. Then, we stay put in Savannah to hear about the children that haunt The Marshall Hotel. A beautifully restored hotel that seems to have a lot more to offer than just a place to rest your head. Be wary of rooms 214,314 414!!

Lynze also goes back to her horror roots with a traditional story, telling the tale of a haunted house in Scotland. A young child has multiple encounters within their home but everything seemed friendly. That is, until one day, when the young child finds themself face to face with a floating being. After Scotland, we explore the idea of a new kind of spoop. Do you think shadow animals are possible? If shadow people are real, then why not a shadow dog? Or an animal doppelgänger?

Bad Magic Productions, thanks to our Scared to Death and Timesuck Patreon supporters, are going to be donating to the USC Shoah foundation. We don’t have the amount yet because of recording these in advance, but I’m guessing it will be around $12,500. Very close to that if not that.

I came across this foundation in the Armenian Genocide episode of Timesuck and - in the age of misinformation, where it seems like holocaust denial and the denial of other atrocities is on the rise thanks to all these fake “truthers” out there - I think it’s very important to support institutions like the USC Shoah foundation.

The currently have over 55,000 video different testimonies in their archives. Interviews average over two hours in length. Over 110,000 hours of first hand accounts from survivors of the Holocaust, the Armenian genocide, the Rwandan genocide and other historical atrocities.

So much harder to deny the truth when you can hear and watch thousands and thousands of survivors tell their stories.

Per their website, the mission statement of the USC Shoah Foundation is “to develop empathy, understanding, and respect through testimony.”

Six Tapes

Wed, 10 Mar 2021 07:45:00 +0000

"Fast forward about a year and one night… when you were just a little baby, I overheard your mom and the guy in charge talking about how ‘now the sacrifice needed to be made. And you were mentioned. Long story short, you were supposed to be the payment made to whatever we’d brought into the world that night.

This guy was telling your mom that it was ‘almost time,’ and your mom…. she seemed… OKAY with it all."

In episode 79, Dan has a story based on some lost footage and a story about sleeping with the dead.

In story one, we hear the sad and tragic story of Peter, a young boy who loses his parents and is sent to live with his grandparents. Upon turning 16, Peter's grandparents give him six tapes that contain footage he was not prepared for. Peter's father had prerecorded a series of 6 tapes that contain very important instructions for Peter to follow, in order to keep him safe. In each tape, Peter must recite a prayer for protection. Or is it? Are his dad's intentions simple and pure: leave a message for his son from beyond the grave? Tune in to hear Peter's side of the story.

Dan's second tale is a well-documented and bizarre story. When a man's wife passes away unexpectedly, he isn't quite ready to say goodbye. Is he possessed by the spirit of his wife? Has she compelled him to ignore his vow of till death do us part so that they might be together... forever?

A doppelgänger double feature wraps up the back half of the show. Lynze attempts to get under Dan's skin by talking about two very different but very disturbing instances of possible doppelgänger encounters. In her first story, she tells the tale of a young girl and her grandmother both witnessing and talking to her younger brother. When he vanishes into thin air, both assume he's playing games. As the evening progresses and the young boy is still unable to be located, fear sets in. It's only after the boy's mother confirms that the young boy is at his father's that both grandma and granddaughter come to realize that they may have encountered something not of this world.

Was there a glitch in the matrix or did a doppelgänger appear before a man, posing as his wife? When the young husband wakes up to see his wife scurrying off to the restroom, he doesn't think much of it, until he notices her stilted stride. Upon further investigation, his wife is nowhere near the bathroom. How did she get to the bedroom without him knowing? Was she there all along? And if she was in the bedroom, who was that that went into the bathroom?

The School of Shadows

Wed, 3 Mar 2021 07:45:00 +0000

"She’d later tell investigators, who were still trying to catch Phillip’s killer, that she was hearing noises coming from inside the walls of the home. Scratching, rattling noises. She sometimes could hear what sounded like someone breathing. Or someone whispering. The police came over to investigate…. and found nothing.

A few days later, the nurse called them again. This time, she reported seeing an apparition on the back stairs that “chattered its teeth at her” before completely disappearing into the darkness."

Dan and Lynze keep the scares coming in this 78th episode of Scared To Death! Dan has the strangest story to kick off episode. It's not what you think and the twist at the end just about sent Lynze over the edge. This story will give you a whole new set of fears. That sound in your attic, might not be what you think it is. And that thing you thought you saw out of the corner of your eye, might not be an apparition. In Dan's second tale, a terrible tragedy seems to be the base for a very haunted former school building in Canada. The building has since been transformed into modern condo's. Are the ghosts of the past haunting the current residents?

Lynze brings three juicy tales to her side of the episode. In her first story, we explore the idea that ghosts can be jealous and interfere in our most intimate moments. The story of Brenda and Doug is one that makes you really reconsider your most vulnerable moments. In her second story, Lynze gets all together too excited to try to scare Dan with one helluva creepy clown story! Oh, it's so juicy and will have you hiding all of your dolls. Lastly, in story three, a strange situation in which three people confirm the same thing, never knowing about the other's experiences. How does the evil from the other side seep into our lives?

Hellmouth

Wed, 24 Feb 2021 07:45:00 +0000

"They say that under the ruins atop the former basement of an abandoned church in Stull, Kansas - there exists a sealed staircase that is almost impossible to find. And you don’t want to find it.

If you do, and you follow that staircase down far enough on the wrong night, legend has it you can reach one of the seven mouths to Hell itself.

And if you do, good luck getting back out…"

Dan tells two really amazing stories this week! To kick off the episode, we are off to sunny Los Angeles to the very famous Griffith Park. Is the park haunted? Cursed? Dead bodies have been found on the park grounds somewhat regularly and frequent tragedies lead us to believe that the grounds are a unique place to find many spoopy incidents, but can it be proved? What if you saw a Merry-Go-Round moving on its own, late into the night, with no explanation? Would that be proof enough? Listen to part one of this episode to find out! Next up, Hellmouth! What?! Did you know there are supposedly 7 mouths of Hell? This was all news to Dan and Lynze as they explored the story of Stull, Kansas. Does the Devil himself appear here on Halloween? Is this a portal to Hell? If you find this supposed portal, time moves at supernatural speed and you enter into some kind of trance. Find out what happens to a few people when they come out of the trance and realize how much time has gone by.

On the backside of the episode, Lynze has an intense story coming in from a fan who is also a Paranormal Investigator--and so were his parents! It does not get more legit than this!! The story takes all of the right twists and turns and leaves you wanting to know more. In story number two, the question is raised within a family, if their house is haunted or if a family member is haunted!

The Watcher

Wed, 17 Feb 2021 07:45:00 +0000

The tale of The Watcher just about put Lynze over the edge. Dan told a very well documented story that would not traditionally fall under the paranormal category but then again, maybe it does. A couple buys a new home, their dream home in fact, only to find out that someone else does not want them to be there. Or do they want them to be there so they can get the "young blood" of their children? The story is terrifying, overwhelming and will add a new reason to be scared.

In the second story, Dan goes back to a more traditional story as he shares the tale of a possible shadow person. When a family is certain that they all live in a haunted house, it's really hard to ignore the possibility of a shadow person that can be confirmed by family members and friends alike.

Lynze has two stories that somehow feel connected, carrying on the theme of shadow people and what lurks in the dark. In story one, she tells us about a truck driver who has an odd situation arise at his home, after a long day at work. Was that his wife? What happened to his dog? Then, the next story will have you wondering more about attachments. Fan and friend of the show, Ryan, has a long and on going encounter with something or someone.

Corpsewood Manor

Wed, 10 Feb 2021 07:45:00 +0000

"And I started to fall asleep. And then, when I was about half-asleep, laying on my side facing the window, it felt like someone crawled into bed behind me. As I started to wake up and roll over, not really expecting to see anyone, I felt hands on my upper back and I started to panic. I suddenly thought that someone else really was in my bed with me. My mind raced, wondering how they could have gotten in so quietly? Were they already hiding in the closet or something when I entered the room? Was I going to die?"

The Salem Witch Trials, kind of. Dan explores the spirits who may still be hanging around, all these years later. He starts off with plenty of history about Salem and the Witch Trials, which is really quite fascinating. The locale of the story takes place in the Joshua Ward House AKA The Merchant Hotel, where you can tempt fate and stay the night. Would you dare to stay there and risk being strangled by a ghost?

From Salem, Dan takes us down to Georgia for a more salacious, sexy, steamy story about the Corpsewood Manor. If you let you kids listen to this show and you have any qualms about sex, you might want to skip this one! We hear the story of Dr. Charles Scudder and his bizarre departure from his "normal" life and the hedonistic life he seeks. A chicken coup, a sex dungeon and wild orgies seem to be at the center of this bizarre story where true crime and horror tales collide.

During Lynze's portion of the episode, she lighten's things up a tiny bit with a creepy but funny story about a possible cult sighting. The story itself takes place in the deep woods of Atlanta, Michigan which may conjure up memories of Dice Rd. What happens when you mix booze, teenagers and cultiness?

For her second story, we travel to Hawaii. Lynze reveals that she thinks Hawaii might be one of the most spiritual places in the US, due to the Polynesian culture. Also, she wonders if Pearl Harbor and the mass casualties have caused additional activity here. Those thoughts aside, this story presents what appears to be a modern day possession.

The Night Spirit

Wed, 3 Feb 2021 07:45:00 +0000

"Eight HUMAN skulls. I froze with fear at the sight of them. I’d never seen actual human skulls up that close before. Who puts them on a gate like that? Why? And now I’d have to climb over them."

Thanks to Dan, we all have something new to fear. Have you ever heard of the Bangladeshi Nishi? We sure as hell hadn't and now we wish we didn't know what it was. Dan takes us on two really amazing journeys this week. We start in Bangladesh for the story of an encounter, or maybe 2, with a Nishi. If you don't know.... well now you know. For the second story, Dan brings us back to the US for a story that takes place in North Carolina and more specifically, at The Devil's Tramping Ground. These is this spot in the forest where nothing can or will grow. But why? What is happening here? Local legends and folklore offer a variety of options. Would you risk camping here, knowing the stories? Find out what happens to a couple who tempt fate.

Lynze takes us back to college with the story of a possibly haunted dorm. More than haunted, could it simply be a lonely spirit that wants to play? For her second story, we travel to Mexico to hear one that has been handed down from one generation to the next. Hold on tight!

The House the Devil Built

Wed, 27 Jan 2021 07:45:00 +0000

"A few days later, after not seeing anyone enter or leave the house since the murders, a friend and neighbor of the Congeliers entered the home through a back door after knocking and getting no answer in the front.

And he encountered the terrible smell of flesh beginning to rot. And he found Lyda sitting in a rocking chair… covered in blood… holding the severed heads of both Charles and Essie… singing them a lullaby. "

Dan shares the long history and supposed haunting of The House The Devil Built, also known as the Congelier Mansion or The House on Ridge Avenue. No matter what you call it, it's downright creepy. And is it even true? Did the house ever exist and sustain multiple murders followed by multiple hauntings or was it all, simply, folklore. Listen and decide for yourself. Dan's second story explores the very terrifying topic of Dopplegangers. While we know this subject matter freaks Dan out, he really gets under Lynze's skin with it this week. What if a Doppleganger could actually impersonate you and cause havoc in your life? How would you ever prove it wasn't you?

Lynze's side of the show is a little bit different this week as she takes on three listener stories that all explore the mystery of what happens when we die, what's on the other side and how do you even know what to think of it all? Story one moves us up to Boston for the miraculous and strangely predicted recovery of a family member. In story two, a fan shares a tale of crossing over to the other side and then coming back. What did he see? What did he learn? And lastly, rounding out the tales is an odd coincidence of someone being haunted by someone their friend knows.

The Man With No Face

Wed, 20 Jan 2021 07:45:00 +0000

"His face was just… blank. He didn’t have a face! How he could he not have a face? I turned around and tried to get away from him. I tried to climb back down and I fell. I could hear him coming after me. He kept letting out these muffled screams.

We are off to Australia, if you believe it's real, for the story of a very famous haunted cave, the Jenolan Caves. Many of us go on tours while we are on vacation. What if you went on a tour and you were the only person who could see an extra tourist, also on the tour? As we listen to Dan share the hauntings of this cave, you will be left to wonder how such a beautiful place could give you such a scare. Keeping in theme with adventures you might go on, Dan attempts to make the woods and hiking a NO-GO for Lynze. In an undisclosed location, there is a "man" with no face, making people disappear. Is he real? Are people disappearing? What kind of control does he have over them that keeps people in the woods for days. Listen in and decided if you still want to spend time in the woods.

In Lynze's half of the show, she gives us three stories this week. In the first story, CC tells how a previous episode (69) sends her into a bit of tailspin, reminding her of the horrors of a shadow man or hat man she thought she had dealt with in her younger years. Was it a dream? Her imagination? Or, was he really there? In the second story, Lynze tells us about three cousins who have two back to back experiences. Both instances are bizarre and unnerving. If more than one person experiences something, does that make it more true? Finishing out the episode is a less scary tale but spoopy, none the less. Lynze takes us to Indiana and back in time, where a possible ghost is connected to the infamous H.H. Holmes.

I Want To Play With You

Wed, 13 Jan 2021 07:45:00 +0000

"The girl then wiped her hair from out of her face and revealed those two pitch-black spots where her eyes should’ve been.

She smiled a large open-mouth smiled and revealed teeth that looked predatory - too sharp to be human.
Not fangs, exactly, but close. She started to walk towards Nitara and Fatima. Too quickly. “Will you let me in?” she asked, “I need to come inside. To play with you.”

Why does Dan do this to Lynze? He knows that the Black Eye Kids are her biggest and most upsetting fear. Lynze is a complete caregiver and knows that if a child was asking her for help, she would never be able to turn them away. In story one of two, Dan explores more of the history of BEK's before diving into this eery tale of a possible encounter with a BEK in a European hotel. Staying abroad, Dan takes us over to Scotland for the tale of the haunted Glamis Castle. What secret is lurking in the hidden passageways of this ancient castle?

Lynze tells one, long, harrowing tale of a FOR SURE haunted house in Colorado. When the new owners move in, all is well for quite some time. There was only one warning sign on moving day- all of the windows were lined with foil, from the inside out. After two years of small but harmless signs of someone or something being in the family home, things escalate. Stay until the very end of this odd tale to gain some semblance of confirmation of the haunting.

Dice Road

Wed, 6 Jan 2021 07:45:00 +0000

"Some believe a less-than five mile stretch of this road either is - or has become - some kind of a paranormal corridor or conduit. An area where, for whatever reason, it’s easier for spirits to access or stay."

What is going on on Dice Road, in Michigan? Dan takes us all on a terrifying journey, telling us three tales that all take place on Dice Road. There is the tale of the Pommeraning Family, who seem to be having a bit of trouble in their home. Many people are witness to the paranormal activity but no one seems to be able to find the source. Is it real? Where is it coming from? Why is it happening? Then, just about two miles down the road, in either direction, there are two other big tales of paranormal activity. What a crazy place to live, to be totally surrounded by possible ghosts, hauntings, sightings and more!

On the back half of the show, Lynze has two super spoopy tales. Dan has a hard time even focusing on the tales because of some strange activity in the studio that occurs during his half of the show. Lynze shares a tale of a haunted house where multiple people have seen the same ghost, over and over. What happens when the ghost of the house starts to escalate her behavior? In story two, we find ourselves in the midst of a story that affects three generations of family members, simultaneously. Is it possible to be deeply connected to others in a way that makes your most terrifying moments a shared experience?

Friend 'Til The End

Wed, 30 Dec 2020 07:45:00 +0000

"Now he saw it again. And this time he got a better look. A blurry black figure climbing down from Alex’s bed."

Two really intense episode full of so many spoops! For our first story, Dan tells the tale of a very recent haunted doll. And not just any doll, a little girls Elsa doll is the source of some crazy activity. If your kid had a toy that was potentially haunted, you got rid of it and it showed back up at your house- what would you do? After that tale, Dan tells an incredible story about a haunted dorm, kind of. Three new friends seem to encounter an entity that wants more than just a little bit of their attention.

On the back half of the episode, Lynze has three really interesting stories, ranging from a family possibly bringing home a spirit that wants to get their attention, a shape shifting doppleganger and an episode of sleep paralysis unlike any other ever covered on Scared To Death.

The Devil's Toy Box

Wed, 23 Dec 2020 07:45:00 +0000

"Know that - this is a dangerous ritual. To go inside the box is to risk bringing something back with you when you leave.

Something that may change you forever.


Going into the box may prove to you that there are absolutely worlds beyond this one - but it may also - supposedly - destroy you."

Have you ever heard of The Devil's Toy Box? A truly intense and terrifying way to contact the other is the basis for Dan's first story this week. He takes us on a journey of three friends who dabble in the occult and find that it's much scarier than they ever thought.

Keeping up with the tradition that Dan and Lynze set up last year when Dan told the tale of the Smee, we’ll go back a little further to the Victorian Era of England when ghost stories were extremely popular in the UK, and again, when they were most popular around Christmas. Christmas ’twas the season for horror in the mid and late 19th century for many British Empire nations. Stick around until the end of the story which will leave you wondering who is who?!

Lynze mixes it up a bit this week with three tales instead of two. In her first story, we hear the account of a one soldier seeing another soldier in Iraq, in the middle of the night. Or did he? What exactly is out there in the former battlegrounds?

In her second, and very quick story, we explore a possible sleep paralysis. As Lynze tells the story, we think it's all of the usual marking of sleep paralysis but then, she revels one final fact that changes it all.

Wrapping up the holiday episode, a cautionary tale of things that go bump in your house. What do you do when things go missing, are moved without you noticing? Do you automatically blame a ghost? See what happens when you don't trust your gut when you get the feeling you are being watched.

Backseat Driver

Wed, 16 Dec 2020 07:45:00 +0000

"Recognizing that something abnormal was happening, Steven grabbed his tablet and began filming his wife.

Several priests would later watch this video and described what they witnessed as follows:
“You humans have your own sense of time,” Louisa told Steven at one point in the video. “I have plenty of time. I have all the time in the world."

She then shifted into a staccato whisper.
“It’s your wife I want,” she said “not only her body, but her soul.”

Dan's stories this week are top notch! A really big, scary episode! We start off in Germany for the tale of the Weiße Frauen, AKA, The White Woman of Bavaria! She is rather sneaky and will have you looking over your shoulder. After that, Dan tells a tale so haunting that Lynze actually started to cry during the episode. Louisa Muskovits is a woman living in Tacoma in 2018 who was, or possibly still is, being oppressed OR possessed by an evil spirit. This tale will shake you to the core.

In Lynze's half of the show, we explore a possibly haunted English countryside in. The story may not make you jump out of your skin but it sure will make you think twice about the sound of footsteps. For story two, she takes us to Montana, to explore the possibility of something haunting the woods around an old homestead.

Choked and Afraid

Wed, 9 Dec 2020 07:45:00 +0000

"And Jackson said, "I woke up one morning and there was a figure in the room… she was very scary…. she had a screaming face, very accusatory, she was a lady about 50 years old.”

Then he added, "It was terrifying actually, a very scary image and she was at the end of the bed and she glided across the room… and disappeared into the wall.

I sat in bed and thought, have I really seen that?”

Dan takes us all on a journey to two places that Dan and Lynze love or dream of visiting! Kicking the show off is the tale of the St. James Theater in Wellington, New Zealand. Famed Film Director, Peter Jackson backs up the theories about the "Wailing Woman" who lives here. The story has a big build up to a stage hand possibly being harmed by this malevolent spirit. The "Wailing Woman" isn't the only spirit living in the St. James Theater. Find out how many spirits might be here, the good and the bad, and a little bit of history in this tale. For the second story, we jump over to NOLA, one of Dan and Lynze's most favorite places on earth, to explore one the most famous, most dark tales of Madame Delphine LaLaurie. While you may know the story of Madame LaLaurie, you surely haven't heard this tale of a spirit from the home trying to reach out to the living!

Lynze has her usual two tales this week. Her first story touches on one of Dan's biggest fears: Mirrors. Can you make contact with the other side, via a mirror, even when you aren't trying? Can a spirit convince you to do something you normally wouldn't do? And what if the person being tricked is just a child? Check out story one for this spoopy tale. In Lynze's second tale, you are going to want to hang on until the very end. Sure, she might just be sharing an odd experience of a possibly haunted house but what if it were happening to you and what if you could hear it but you couldn't see it? Dig into this tale with us!

For our December Patreon donation, we ended up donating to the Cult of the Curious Giving Tree.

The Cult of the Curious, if we haven't described it here before - is the private Facebook group for the Timesuck podcast- and many Creeps and Peepers also listen to that podcast and are in that group.

We donated a little over $10,000 of this month’s overall Patreon contribution from both Scared to Death and Timesuck to buy gifts for listeners in need.

And then fans started sending in money.

The Cult of the Curious donated almost exactly $15,000.

And we said we’d match that, so now Lynze and I are giving another $15,000 to raise the total to a little over $40,000.

We’ll be sending presents - lots of presents - to EIGHTY different Cult of the Curious households.

Sorry we didn’t advertise it HERE, but, the response from Timesuck’s fans overwhelmed us so quickly - we knew we already wouldn’t be able to help everyone who wrote in and we didn’t want to disappoint more people.

NEXT YEAR - we will be sure to spread the word for the now annual Bad Magic Giving Tree to Creeps and Peepers as well.

Thank you Roberts and Annabelles for taking a lot of fear OUT of the holidays for many this year.

The Whaley House

Wed, 2 Dec 2020 07:45:00 +0000

“Excuse me, Omar,” she said. “Did you just drop off that other woman?”

“What other woman?” said Omar.


Kathy thought he was joking for a moment and then realized he was 100 % serious. She was so confused. She had CLEARLY seen another woman in the backseat with her. She’d looked at several times. She was only two feet away sitting there plain as day.

“The woman who was sitting right beside me just a few minutes ago. Blonde hair, blue short sleeved shirt.”


Omar turned the radio down.

“No, ma’am,” he said. “There was no other woman there.”

The tales that Dan weaves this week are top notch. During story number one, we explore the idea of a haunted car ride. What would you do if there was another passenger in a car but you were the only person who could see the passenger? And what if you were in a cab? Or an Uber? What would you do? In story number two, we go to the famous haunting of The Whaley House. A long haunted and well known haunted home, a home that was once called The Most Haunted House in America.

In the second half of the show, Lynze takes a literal deep dive into a potentially haunted underwater cave in Vortex Springs. Was something trying to connect with a diver? Was there a warning of danger coming from the other side? In her second story, Lynze shares a fan story about a haunted doll. If you could not prove that a doll was haunted, would you get rid of it? Would you keep looking for more signs? Find out what this fan does when she suspects her new porcelain is the source of unexplained activity.

La Isla de las Muñecas/Island of the Dolls

Wed, 25 Nov 2020 07:45:00 +0000

"The feeling of being watched returned. It wasn’t an unusual feeling to get, out in a country road. Animals were often watching from the bushes, deer or sometimes even mountain cats… but this was different.

The thing that watching him felt…. smart. Dave couldn’t explain how. It just did.


Then, from inside the house, he heard a crash rang out.

And then he heard something else that make his skin craw
l.

It didn’t sound sinister exactly, not at first. But he definitely didn’t like it… a low chanting. Followed by the sound of a baby crying.

“What the Hell was going on tonight?,” he wondered. Was there a full moon? Two full moons somehow? He’d just left a baby back in the car. And now he’s hearing another baby? And chanting?"

Happy Thanksgiving, Creeps and Peepers! Much thanks for all of our fans, Robert's and Annabelle's! On today's show, Dan takes us all to one of the strangest places we have ever gone on Scared to Death, The Island of the Dolls. Why in the world would a man just up and leave him family to live, alone and secluded, on an island that he then COVERS in dolls? After years of living on the island, why does this man turn up dead? What have others discovered when visiting The Island of the Dolls? Are the dolls alive? Possessed? Is it all in their imaginations? From Mexico City, Dan takes us to Colorado. More specifically, we are going to Riverdale Road. This road is know by many to be extremely haunted. Listen to Dan share a tale of three credible witnesses who are lured in by the spirit of women with a decaying face, a woman who tries to burn them alive.

Lynze pulls us back to more traditional stories. She also starts in Mexico and shares a long standing family story from a fan. Carrying on the theme of family stories, Lynze shares a tale from Donna, Dan's little sister, and her creepy kids. In both stories, we are left to wonder if kids are more prone to see ghosts and if so, why?

It Feels Alive

Wed, 18 Nov 2020 07:45:00 +0000

TW: This first story is graphic in every way.

"But this was different. She didn’t know who or what was responsible for these new noises that always came with a feeling of dread. Those noises weren’t the ones she was hearing now….

She’d hear what sounded like someone walking… kind of. The gait wouldn’t sound quite right for a person.
She’d heard an ominous, menacing, slow shuffle. And it would be accompanied by other unsettling noises - like the sound someone dragging something - scraping something - slowly across the wall.

She’s feel the energy of the whole hosuse shift when she heard all this. It felt more observant somehow.

It felt alive."

For the first time in Scared To Death history, NO ANNOUNCEMENTS! Woohoo! Kicking it right off with the good stuff, Dan dives into the story of The Haunting of Doris Bither which was the inspiration for the 1978 novel and the 1983 movie, The Entity. It's an interesting and well documented story. How would you react if 30 people crammed into your bedroom and witnessed the paranormal activity you had been claiming was ruining your life? Does that make it real? Listen in to hear this juicy and tragic tale! In Dan's second tale, he explores the possibility of a supposed Ghost Ship, the Mary Celeste. That's not a ship haunted by ghosts but rather, a ship that is found out at sea with no signs of life or death!

In Lynze's half of the show, she shares not two but three tales this week! She starts out with a story that will make you think about how old a ghost might be and if ghosts come back to visit on the anniversary of their deaths. In story number two, we head up to visit our friends in Canada to hear the story of The Raven House, a house that might make you wonder if good ghosts and bad ghosts have some kind of relationship in their world. Can a good ghost protect you from a bad ghost? In the final story of the show, Lynze brings back a favorite kind of spirit, the jinn (also, djinn).

The Brown Lady of Raynham Hall

Wed, 11 Nov 2020 07:45:00 +0000

"Just then on the opposite side of my room, I watched this dark, smoky, human-like form crawl up my wall, each step it took made a tsssss (like water on a frying pan sound) and smoke was coming from each hand and foot connection with my wall."

This week Dan takes from England to Malaysia, such a fun show! To kick off the show, Dan shares an old but interesting tale from Raynham Hall. Did a pair of photographers catch The Brown Lady (it's a reference to her dress!) ascending the stairs? Can it really be proven? What happens when its been centuries of people seeing a ghost; does it make it more possible. Lynze really buys into the idea that this ghost is real. From there, we pop over to Malaysia to learn the folkloric tale of the penanggalan- a bodyless woman whose insides trail behind her as she attacks her victims. Is she real? Listen as two very logical people have a strange and frightening encounter with what they believe to be a penanggalan. In the back half of the show, Lynze has one heck of a creepy story about something haunting a child. While the story has a slow start make sure you stay tuned for the MAJOR plot twist! After that, let's head over to the forests of Michigan. (This is where all people from Ohio groan. Not the "M" word...) What would you do if you saw an old man in the woods? Would you offer him help or would you GTFO?

ALSO! In honor of Veteran’s Day we are making a Bad Magic Productions donation of $10,000 to https://veteransfoodpantry.org/ this month. This money comes from the combination of the Timesuck and Scared to Death Patrons. We’ve been doing for a few years on Timesuck - so happy to be doing here now as well. Thank you Roberts and Annabelles! We are so proud and grateful to be able to come together as a community to donate to this incredible cause. Stick around at the end of the show to listen to Dan and Lynze chat more about giving back.

The Nightmare Man

Wed, 4 Nov 2020 07:45:00 +0000

"They continued to hear the sounds of footsteps behind them. Getting louder. Gaining on them. Their only source of hope was the soft breeze constantly flowing through from the opposite end. The cool, dry air. Finally - they reached a t-shaped intersection. Which way to turn?"

In another fun week of spoopy fun, Dan shares two incredible stories. Our first story takes us to Oregon, just outside of Portland. Two friends take an adventure into a supposedly haunted mental hospital that is home to tunnels that connect to another abandoned building. Do they encounter an angry entity? Do they run into a former patient? Was it all in their heads? For Dan's second tale, it is short and not-so-sweet. Lynze hates the ending of this one; what do you think about an unfinished tale?

In the second half of the show, Lynze takes us to a possible haunting in Bozeman, Montana, in an old forest service lookout. Was it a ghost that entered this space? Was someone sleep walking? And who took the dog out in the middle of the night? For story number two, a fan submission makes us wonder if mirrors truly are a portal for spirits.

Poveglia Island Haunting

Wed, 28 Oct 2020 06:45:00 +0000

"She tried to turn to follow him but she couldn’t. She was tied down. She couldn’t move. She could see the dark layout of the tent and cast her eyes around for the unseen presence. 

Then she heard it. 

Coming from right above her left ear, a sound like a drill."

A quote from the first of Dan's two stories this week. A supposedly haunted island off the coast of Italy, Poveglia takes us on a journey that makes us question, what CAN a spirit, a doctor no less, do to us, from the other side. A few friends travel to the island in search of fun and get so much more than they bargained for. In Dan's second story of the week, we travel to China to talk about a possible/probably alien abduction. In the listener told stories, Lynze prompts us with a question about how possible it may be to control what you see of the other world. In story number two, Lynze goes far outside of her comfort zone to bring you a story about aliens and the plans they might have for a very special father and daughter.

Slit-Mouthed Woman

Wed, 21 Oct 2020 06:45:00 +0000

"He ended up taking his sword to her face. He sliced open her cheeks from the corners of her mouth to her ears, and then he asked her, “Who will think you’re beautiful now?”

A quote from the first of Dan's two stories this week. This first tale takes us to Japan for a haunting story about the Slit-Mouthed Woman. Once you see her, you are almost guaranteed to die. Or are you? Is there a way to avoid being drawn in by this mysterious woman and losing your life to her? The second story takes us back to Idaho! We are going to Idaho Falls once again. What is going on down there? Is this part of Idaho particularly haunted? Let's find out. For the second half of the show, Lynze shares the occasional three fan stories to switch it up. All of the stories have a similar vibe about unknown entities in various situations, each affecting the listeners in different ways. The final of the three stories is the most disturbing. Do you think that child ghosts could be luring other children to the other side so they might have a forever playmate?

“Join Us.”

Wed, 14 Oct 2020 06:45:00 +0000

"He was in Scarlett’s room in seconds, flinging his door open before bounding down the hall and quickly popping into his daughter’s room where she was sitting up in her bed. And he immediately saw that something was sitting with her..."

A quote from our first story. We head to Idaho for both tales today. First, we share some encounters a woman claims she and her family experienced shortly after moving into a Pocatello apartment. Then, we head to Pocatello High School, were security camera footage emerged in 2014 of what appears to be a shadowy humanoid entity. And we share a tale of a former high school custodian encountering something terrible in the band room. Lynze closes out the show by sharing some disturbing listener tales.

Wed, 7 Oct 2020 06:45:00 +0000

"He thrashed against whatever was holding him, desperately trying to kick himself free. The woman in blue smiled and he then heard what he knew was her voice inside his head. 'Stay…. stay…'”

A quote from our second story. For our first tale today, we explore the Cajun legend of the Cauchemar, a specific, demonic spiritual presence believed by some living in and around certain parts of Louisiana to harm them after it invades their dreams. And for the second story, we head to Georgia for tales to stories revolving around the first haunted body of water we’ve talked about so far here on Scared to Death - Lake Lanier. And then Lynze shares some listener tales of allegedly true terror.

Footsteps in the Dust

Wed, 30 Sep 2020 06:45:00 +0000

“Just stay upstairs,” he thought to himself. “Whatever you are, just please stay upstairs...”

A quote from today's second of two opening tales! Today's first story is another black-eyed kid encounter story. Kind of. A woman in New Hampshire has claimed to have witnessed two different black-eyed entities on two different occasions. In the next story, we explore the many ghosts of Amherstburg, Ontario. The Canadian town is full of all kinds of alleged paranormal activity and we share several sightings, ending on one particularly in-depth and disturbing story. Lynze closes out the show by sharing two listener-submitted reports of living in haunted homes.

The Black Door

Wed, 23 Sep 2020 06:45:00 +0000

"Chase began to walk down the hallway. His legs were heavy. He was afraid of what was behind the last door. The black door..."

A quote from today's second of two opening tales! Had a great time recording the first episode of the second year of the show. We start with the mysterious disappearances of Charlie Ashmore and Ambrose Bierce. Then, we explore the dark side of hypnosis. What if you were hypnotized by someone who did not have your best interests in mind? A strange, unnerving hypnosis-related tale awaits you. Lynze closes out the show by sharing another three listener-submitted encounters with the unknown.

Shadows, Specters, and Strigoi: the One Year Anniversary Episode!

Wed, 16 Sep 2020 06:45:00 +0000

"People who’d known Arnold in life testified over and over that they had seen him walking through the village in the weeks following his documented death..."

A quote from today's second of three opening tales! We have a big episode for you today as this week marks the one-year anniversary of the show. Thank you for making this show a success! Our first story covers the legend of Missouri's Zombie Road and includes a few alleged encounters with something terrible. Then we head to Romania and Serbia and dig into tales of the strigoi - cryptid predecessor to tales of modern vampires. For our third story, we head to Italy and share a ghost hunter getting more than he bargained for during a stay at Villa De Vecchi - an abandoned mansion rumored to be one of Italy’s most haunted houses. And then Lynze shares three listener-submitted encounters with the spooky and the unknown for our biggest episode yet!

Ghost Ship

Wed, 9 Sep 2020 06:45:00 +0000

"Then, he felt the air around him get heavier and heavier until it no longer felt like air at all. It felt like water. It felt like he was drowning."

A quote from today's first tale. Our first story centers on the haunted history of the RMS Queen Mary - supposedly the world's most haunted ship, currently operating as a hotel in Long Beach, California. How many spirits from its days as a transatlantic liner still haunt its labyrinth of cabins, hallways, and various decks? Our second story is all about "La Pascualita," the world's most infamous mannequin. Is the mannequin possessed? Is it the corpse of a long dead bridal shop's daughter? After these two creepy stories, Lynze shares some intense listener tales of encounters with the unknown.

The Demon House

Wed, 2 Sep 2020 06:45:00 +0000

"She claimed to witness the boy walked backwards up a wall all the way to the ceiling…before flipping over and landing on his feet."

A quote from today's second tale. Our first story is an exposition of the ritualistic murder of LeRoy Carter, Jr. in San Francisco, California, in 1981. What dark god may he have been sacrificed to? Our second story is a modern haunting classic - the Ammons house aka the House of 200 demons made infamous by Zak Bagans. Hope you like the way I tell this tale. And then Lynze shares a long and eerie listener tale.

Haunted Asylum

Wed, 26 Aug 2020 06:45:00 +0000

"...the steam soon revealed a message. She could just make out the finger-scrawled words… “Why did you hurt us?”

A quote from today's first tale. Today we open up with two asylum-related paranormal tales. The first comes from Salem, Oregon - the long, haunted history of the facility once called “The Oregon State Hospital for the Insane,” and a recent encounter. Our second story is the urban legend of the Melon Heads. Disturbing folklore coming primarily from Ohio and Michigan. And then Lynze shares two listener tales that are very hard to rationalize away as being anything other than paranormal.

The Amityville Horror

Wed, 19 Aug 2020 06:45:00 +0000

"Kathy wakes up with red welts that have formed a trail from just above her pubic hair to just under her breast. They feel hot to the touch. It was like something had slashed and burned her..."

A quote from today's second story. Our first tale is about the Shadow Man - one man's tale of a series of intense encounters that lasted for several years of his childhood. Our second story is one of my favorite paranormal events ever - the basis for the book and movie, The Amityville Horror. The story of the Lutz family's 28 day experience with something evil in a home where the previous family to live there had been murdered by their grown son. And Lynze shares two creepy listener tales.

The Attic Family

Wed, 12 Aug 2020 06:45:00 +0000

"How many more steps until it was directly behind her? Ten? Twelve? She could now see a shadow emerging on the cracked white walls above her..."

A quote from today's second story. Our first tale today is the story of former Louisiana governor Bobby Jindal claiming to witness a case of demonic possession while studying at Oxford University in 1994. Our second account is of one woman's encounter with paranormal entities in the attic of her grandmother's home during her final visit to the house after it was condemned. Lynze then closes out the show with some listener tales, including one of the scariest stories I've heard so far. Lots of chills today.

Mirrors & Monsters

Wed, 5 Aug 2020 06:45:00 +0000

"...as Angie and Jamal both screamed, their mirror images turned and walked back towards, and then into, their room..."

A quote from today's second story. Both of today's tales involve mirrors. The first story is all about the Mirror Man of the Midnight Mirror Ritual. If you want to perform this ritual, you're braver than we are. The second story is about a young couple bringing home what appears to be an intensely haunted antique. And then Lynze closes out the show with two listener stories, one of which may involve the Wendigo.

The Haunted Villa Montezuma

Wed, 29 Jul 2020 06:45:00 +0000

"She eventually found herself looking at a set of stairs... down to the basement, she presumed. Then she heard a voice say in her ear, “I wouldn’t go down there, if I were you.”

A quote from today's second story. Both of today's tales take place in San Diego, California. The first involves the mysterious death of of Michelle von Emster. Why can't anyone definitively determine how she died? How does one's femur bone end up "whittled?" The next story takes us to San Diego's haunted Villa Montezuma. Did years of séances open a door that has never been closed? And Lynze shares more unsettling listener encounters with the unknown.

Missing Time

Wed, 22 Jul 2020 06:45:00 +0000

"She quickly realized…. something was circling her and Crina. Something that moved through the woods way faster than a human could..."

A quote from today's first tale. We start with a look into Hoia Baciu - Romania's most haunted forest. So many tales of strange disappearances, UFO sightings, paranormal encounters, strange episodes of missing time, and more have been so frequently reported, the forest has acquired the nickname, "The Bermuda Triangle of Romania.” For our second story, we look into the infamous alien abduction of Betty and Barney Hill. Is their tale based on nothing more than false memories induced via hypnosis, or, were they really abducted and examined by extraterrestrials? And then Lynze shares two creepy listener tales.

Poltergeist

Wed, 15 Jul 2020 06:45:00 +0000

"Barbara said it all began with a series of scratching noises and knocking heard coming from inside the walls."

A quote from today's first tale. We start with two heavily witnessed and documented stories about poltergeist activity. The first occurred in St. Catherine's Canada in 1970. The second occurred in Seaford, New York in 1958. Two homes plagued with paranormal events that numerous people witnessed, including police officers and members of the press. Two manifestations of... something... that disappeared as quickly and mysteriously as it first appeared. And then Lynze shares two listener tales and an update to a previous listener story, and we end on some creative audio fan fiction put together by awesome fan, Roman Sachno. A little longer episode than normal. Hope you enjoy it!

Evil Doppelgängers

Wed, 8 Jul 2020 06:45:00 +0000

"I whipped around and saw that my mother - my REAL mother - had just walked in the house. When I turned around, the creature at the end of the hall was gone..."

A quote from today's second tale. Our first story deals with numerous sightings of a black-eyed girl in the a small wooded area of England known as Cannock Chase, and the terrible true crime backstory that may be behind them. Our second group of stories all deal with doppelgängers. We touch on the mythology of the notion of a dark twin, and then give several historical and one chilling contemporary account of someone encounter an entity that looks exactly like them. And then Lynze reads some spooky listener-submitted tales of paranormal terror to round out one of our most consistently creepy episodes yet!

The Rake

Wed, 1 Jul 2020 06:45:00 +0000

"I was about to cry out in pain when I saw it. At the foot of the bed, sitting and facing away from us, was what looked like a naked man, or a large, hairless dog..."

A quote from today's first tale, the story of “The Rake.” The Rake seems to be some type of cryptid allegedly lurking primarily in the Northeastern US. After going over several supposed encounters, we head to a creepy little patch of forest just southwest of Birmingham, England known as the Hagley Wood to look at an encounter two young men had with some mysterious robed figures that may be connected to a 1940s murder. And then Lynze ends the show with some fantastically creepy listener tales of horror.

Demoniac

Wed, 24 Jun 2020 06:45:00 +0000

"And then Jessica heard what sounded like little foot steps move across the floor heading to the corner. Even worse - she swore later she could SEE the shadowy outline of the doll, moving in the dark..."

A quote from today's first story. We head to Ohio in the early 80s to tell the tale of a possibly very possessed little girl’s doll. For our next tale, we had way back to the late 18th century, just outside of Bristol England, to tell the story of the demonic possession of George Lukins aka “the Yatton demoniac.” And then Lynze shares some seriously creepy listener stories. A lot of scares in just over an hour today!

"I'm Supposed to Be Here."

Wed, 17 Jun 2020 06:45:00 +0000

"She watched him continue to tap against her window with a dirty fingernail.
Tap… tap… tap..."

A quote from today's first horror tale. A young girl, her brothers, and mother are tormented by poltergeist activity that disappears as mysteriously as it began. In the second story, we tour the haunted past and present of Philadelphia's Eastern State Penitentiary. And then Lynze shares some spooky listener submissions!

Sleep Paralysis?

Wed, 10 Jun 2020 06:45:00 +0000

"She began to laugh her raspy laugh and then she stepped forward and seemed to move into and then through him. He could feel her dark energy invade his..."

A quote from today's first story, a tale about a man who moves to restart his life in Alaska and suffers from what he first believes is nothing more than sleep paralysis but then he soon begins to suspect something paranormal. The next tale takes us to 17th century for the Loudun possessions. Massive demonic manifestation or political persecution? And then Lynze shares two particularly scary listener tales.

Demons of Dewitt Ranch

"Just as he grabbed it, he felt something right behind him. As he stood up he suddenly was nervous to shine the flashlight behind him. Was something standing in-between him and the door?"

A quote from today's first story. We open on the tale of a young man given a house-sitting gig from Hell. Our second story is the curious account of the Pollock Twins. Are they reincarnations of their dead older sisters? And Lynze shares a couple of creepy listener tales.

"Go To Sleep."

Wed, 27 May 2020 06:45:00 +0000

“Shhh,” said Jeff. And then he pushed his knife deep into Lou’s stomach. “Go to sleep. Just go to sleep.”

A quote from today's second story. Sharing two pretty well known tales today in addition to some MyStory fan tales of horror. The first is the haunted life of Jean Harlow - Hollywood's original "blonde bombshell." The second is the CreepyPasta tale of Jeff the Killer - one of the most commonly requested tales we're now telling.

The Death Room

Wed, 20 May 2020 06:45:00 +0000

"After standing in the bathroom and dripping water on the floor for a few moments, Claire went to turn the door handle and peek into her room when a chill shot down her spine as she saw the edge of a shadow creep up under the door... someone was standing on the other side..."

A quote from today's first of five different supposedly true horror tales. Our first story takes us to Louisiana where a young nurse unknowingly moves into a room of recent tragedy. Our second story covers a collection of encounters with the Wendigo. And then Lynze shares three spooky listener tales.

The Bell Witch

Wed, 13 May 2020 06:45:00 +0000

"A tap-tap-tap would sometimes be heard against a living room window. Something outside that couldn’t be seen out in the dark of the Tennessee wilderness was perhaps now looking in..."

A quote from today's second of four stories - the tale of the Bell Witch. This early 19th century Tennessee story about a malicious, spiteful spirit rumored to have antagonized the Bell family and many others around them for several years is one of America's most famous paranormal horror accounts. The first story is an encounter with New Mexico's La Mala Hora - the "Evil Hour" also known as "The Evil One," a spirit you don't want to drive past at a crossroads. And then Lynze shares two interesting accounts that lend far too much credence to the possibility that the things that go bump in the night exist in more than our imaginations.

Crescent Hotel Horrors

Wed, 6 May 2020 06:45:00 +0000

"...when they walked to the bathroom for a glass of water in the middle of the night, they saw two hands coming out of the bathroom mirror, grasping as though looking for something to pull them up. Hands that slipped back into the mirror and then disappeared..."

A quote from today's first tale - the dark history of Eureka Springs, Arkansas's Crescent Hotel. A lot of bad things have definitely happened there - did its history lead to it being haunted? Our second story is about Virginia's Bunny Man legend. Could getting lost in the Virginia Woods lead to an especially terrifying and gruesome death? And Lynze shares some fantastic-as-always fan stories.

Stalker

Wed, 29 Apr 2020 06:45:00 +0000

"...he saw the back of a figure standing at the bed, bent over the sleeping little boy.
He thought it was his wife Jessica and said, 'What are you doing in here with the light off?The dark figure didn’t answer. It didn’t turn around. It wasn’t Jessica..."

A quote from today's second story. Our first tale is the Kuykendall Family Phone-Stalker Mystery. Who or what texted and called various members and friends of the Kuykendall family with information they shouldn't of known and where did they go? Our second story is about a Pittsburgh family that chose to remain in a preposterously haunted house for DECADES. Why? The poltergeist activity was intense. The dad is the biggest "Darren" we've talked about so far. And then Lynze shares some incredible-as-always listener stories!

The Murder Mansion

Wed, 22 Apr 2020 06:45:00 +0000

"And then he took his hammer, his wife’s blood dropping from it and leaving a trail, and he walked down the hallway towards his daughter Judy’s room..."

A quote from today's second tale. The first is the story of a Florida teacher who in 2012, became convinced that some of her teenage students were possessed by demons, so she took them on a very ill-advised and highly illegal field trip. The second story is that of Los Feliz’s supposedly haunted murder mansion where on the night of December 6th, 1959, in Dr. Harold Perelson struck his wife and daughter with a hammer. Ever since that night, the house has sat empty and many think it is haunted. Lynze also shares some more fantastic listener personal tales of terror.

The Pascagoula Abductions

Wed, 15 Apr 2020 06:45:00 +0000

"They floated through the door of the ship, escorted by creatures Calvin later thought might not even be living beings..."

A quote from today's first tale. In October of 1973, two men claimed to have been abducted by aliens while fishing in Mississippi. Is their tale one of the most credible abduction stories ever? Our second story is the legend of the Greenbrier Ghost. Did the ghost of a murder victim come back to help put her murderer in prison in West Virginia in 1897? Plus, creepy listener tales of horror!

"My grandpa was almost shouting now. 'Where was she standing!?! When did this happen!?! What did you do!?! Did she see you???'"

A quote from our second story. Today's first tale is the story of Bavaria's Wolfsegg Castle. Who is the White Lady and what does she want? the second story is the Japanese urban legend of "the Eight Foot Tall Woman." "Po...po...po..." You'll know what that quote means after you listen. So creepy! Lynze finishes things off with two super creepy listener-submitted tales.

Don't Let Them In

Wed, 1 Apr 2020 06:45:00 +0000

"Stop, you whores!” it said to the nuns who were bent over the priest. “Stop, or you sluts will be sorry.”

A quote from today's second tale. In our first story, an elderly couple makes the mistake of letting in two strange "children" who show up on their remote doorstep one cold winter's night. In our second story, we examine the "exorcism of Julia," a somewhat well-known exorcism that was witnessed by Dr. Richard Gallagher, an Ivy League-educated psychiatrist who can no longer call himself a skeptic after what he witnessed in 2007. Lynze shares two listener's experiences with the unknown, one of which includes a disturbing audio clip.

"His mouth opened and once more a dark blackness poured forth like a snake..."

A quote from today's first tale. An old man had planned to die in a house his family sells and he shows back up in a terrifying way after cursing the home's new owner. In the second story, we visit Flagstaff, Arizona's Hotel Monte Vista, rumored to be one of America's most haunted hotels. Strange sightings and the hotel's sordid history provide lots of interesting scares. And then Lynze shares several of her own disturbing listener tales.

Satanic Carnival

Wed, 18 Mar 2020 06:45:00 +0000

"He lifted the knife and carved an upside-down cross into the unconscious man’s forehead. The man’s eyes then flipped open and he started to scream."

A quote from the first of today's initial two tales. The first story involves something that sounds like an urban legend but really happened - a group of traveling carnival workers sacrifice at least one soul to Satan. Our second story is an urban legend: the Japanese legend of Teke Teke. The story of a young girl horribly disfigured who comes after those who hear her sad tale. Will she come for you in three days? Will you answer her questions correctly? And then Lynze shares some goosebump-inducing listener stories.

"But the really awful thing—the hideous, horrible thing was that the dead guy was missing his skin..."

Did he vanish without a trace due to an extraterrestrial encounter? Our second story is really two tales both revolving around the Navajo legend of the skinwalker. Evil medicine men that some still believe to exist in the American West. And then Lynze shares another two chill-inducing listener tales of terror, one of which is based around three really creepy videos.

"The poltergeist began to attack little Maria Jose again. She was slapped by unseen hands across the face hard enough to leave bruises..."

A quote from today's first of two tales. Our first story comes from Brazil - the Jaboticabal poltergeist. What tormented an eleven-year-old girl and her family in Brazil in the mid-1960s? Or second story covers the history of one of the most famous haunted houses in America - the Winchester Mystery House. Why did Sarah continue to work on her giant San Jose home for nearly 40 years?

“Now!” he cried. 'Can you see me?' Annie screamed. 'Go away!' She bared her teeth and started to laugh, her chest spasming as she heaved."

A quote from today's first story. Our first tale is the infamous Enfield Poltergeist. The basis for the horror blockbuster, the Conjuring 2. From 1977 to 1979, some of the most intense poltergeist activity ever witnessed by multiple people was targeted at one family living in Enfield, a northern borough of London. Our second story is a tale of one boy's repeated encounters with a shadow man in Leeds. And then Lynze will be telling two listener-submitted horror tales.

The Lemp Family Haunting

Wed, 12 Feb 2020 07:45:00 +0000

"...this family would find strange mounds of rocks and sand meticulously piled directly underneath the window of their infant son’s room..."

A quote from today's first story. Our first tale is about the demons that haunt the Muslim world - the jinn. Specifically, the jinn of Bahla, Oman, a city listed as one of the top ten most haunted cities in the world. Our second story is the infamous tale of St Louis's Lemp family and the haunted Lemp mansion. Was the family cursed? Who still haunts their mansion today and what lies in the old caves below?

Evil Shadows

Wed, 5 Feb 2020 07:45:00 +0000

"And for the first time in Spanish history, the police witnessed paranormal activity and documented it in an official police report..."

A quote from today's second story. Our first tale is the strangest possible UFO-related disappearance we've looked into thus far - the 1980 disappearance of extraterrestrial-obsessed Canadian Granger Taylor. Our second account is the supposedly true story behind the 2017 Spanish horror film, "Veronica." Did playing with a ouija board in attempt to make contact with her deceased father end up unleashing a dark and powerful force upon a young Spanish girl that would result in her death and the vicious haunting of her siblings and parents?

We Made a Deal

Wed, 29 Jan 2020 07:45:00 +0000

"Philip walked back downstairs and crawled back into his bed. And then he heard someone saying his name again. Chanting it over and over. 'Philip… Philip… Philip…'"

A quote from today's second tale. Our first story starts off in Beruit and ends in Washington D.C.... kind of. It takes place over thirty years that includes over ten years of the strangest phone calls I've ever heard of. Who was calling Bashir Kouchacji?

Our second story is the basis for the 2009 horror movie, The Haunting in Connecticut. The Snedeker family haunting is one of the craziest poltergeist/possession stories out there. And then Lynze ends the show by sharing two of your tales!

3 A.M.

Wed, 22 Jan 2020 07:45:00 +0000

"Carolyn woke up with a start to see a very tall woman in an old gray dress with her head hanging off to the side. This woman was hovering above Carolyn."

A quote from today's second tale. Our first story comes from Hawaii. A disturbing 3 A.M. encounter with a woman-like entity that you will not want to remember when you're driving anywhere alone at night. Our second story is the allegedly true haunting that inspired The Conjuring. And then Lynze tells what might be our scariest fan submission true horror tale yet. No shortages of goosebumps in this one.

Cover the Mirrors

Wed, 15 Jan 2020 07:45:00 +0000

"In the bedroom, another investigator saw what appeared to be tiny pale fingers reach out from the inside of the closet door..."

A quote from the second of today's horror tales. Our first story is another Hat Man encounter. A young girl sees the Hat Man in her grandparent's home and finds out years later she wasn't the only one to see him. Our second story is the tale of the infamous Villisca Axe Murders. Eight people were murdered with an axe in a small Iowa town, all in one night, all in the same home. And the murderer was never caught. Now, the house may be haunted with the ghosts of those victims, and perhaps also by something else.

"When he grabbed his knife, he suddenly heard a sinister female voice hiss at him from nowhere in particular: 'You are a cruel man!'"

A quote from the first of today's two tales. Our first story is about years of continual poltergeist activity witnessed in the now demolished Langenhoe Chapel, an old English church with a very bloody history. Our second story is about Zozo. A demon that has allegedly been contacted by many. A demon strongly associated with using an Ouija board. And then Lynze tells two fantastic MyStories!

"... she woke up to find James’s sister sitting up in her bed, totally asleep, but talking to the darkest corner of the room. She heard her whisper, “We won’t change anything, I promise...”

A quote from the first of today's two tales. Story one revolves around the possible spirit of an angry woman who has no interest in leaving her earthly home. Story two is "the Amherst Mystery," one of Canada's most heavily documented ghost-related paranormal experiences. And then Lynze tells two listener submitted horror tales.

In The Walls

Wed, 25 Dec 2019 07:45:00 +0000

"The sounds of bells once again was coming from inside the wall. Only now, it wasn’t just the one wall. It was coming from all the walls."

A quote from the second of today's two Christmastime-based tales. Our first story is a classic of early 20th century British ghost story literature, the tale of "Smee." Our second story involves a family haunted by the sounds of bells jingling inside the walls of their home around the holidays. Who or what is ringing them? Finally, Lynze tells two horror stories sent in by you listeners, both of which are arguably the scariest stories of this episode.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

Voodoo Nightmare

Wed, 18 Dec 2019 07:45:00 +0000

“One day I’m gonna die - and I’m gonna take the whole town with me.”

A quote from today's first story. Our first tale is the legend of Louisiana voodoo priestess Julia Brown's curse in 1915. Did she take a whole town with her when she died? And does her ghost still haunt the Manchac swamp? Our second story revolves around the Hmong culture's belief in - and fear of - the tsog tsuam, "the evil spirit who smothers." Can this creature quite literally scare you to death? Can a nightmare kill you?

The Unknown

Wed, 11 Dec 2019 07:45:00 +0000

"Opening my eyes, I saw the same man, this time wearing a strange grin. His teeth were white enough to see in the dark... I started shaking."

A quote from today's first story. Our first tale - a collection of supposed sightings - is about a creature known as “The Grinning Man.” What is it and what does it want? Our second story is about an entity known mostly as “The Elemental.” Some believe it haunts the grounds of Ireland’s “Leap Castle”, and may be tied somehow to this old castle’s very bloody history.

"Let Them Sleep."

Wed, 4 Dec 2019 07:45:00 +0000

"Becca was running down the hall as fast as she could. She felt the powerful malevolent energy behind her. What would happen if it caught her?"

A quote from today's second story. In our first account, we go over the disappearance of Frederick Valentich from Australia in 1978. The last thing he communicated to air traffic control from the cockpit of his Cessna was a UFO harassing his plane. And then he disappeared forever. Our second tale takes us to Kentucky where a ten year-old girl and her single mom were pushed out of a home by strange and powerful poltergeist activity in the late 1980s. And then Lynze shares three different fan true horror submissions. Which story will leave you feeling Scared to Death?

They Won't Leave

Wed, 27 Nov 2019 07:45:00 +0000

“'Are you living or dead?' asked Father Theo. 'I am dead,' said the voice."

A quote from the second of today's two tales. Our first story is our second black-eyed children encounter report. Why is a married couple still haunted by briefly meeting two black-eyed children over thirty years ago? Our second story is a summary of the most heavily documented Catholic exorcism in US history - the early 20th century exorcisms of Wisconsin's Emma Schmidt. Was a woman's soul antagonized by demons and even the Devil himself for roughly three decades? Also, Lynze reads two creepy listener-submitted stories today. Which of these tales, if any, will leave you feeling scared to death?

"If the witnesses were correct, Tedford would have disappeared from his seat as the bus was traveling down Route 7, while it was driving through the Bennington Triangle..."

A quote from the first of today's two tales. Our first story is about a string of disappearances and other unsettling occurrences that have taken place over the years in Vermont's Bennington Triangle. What is happening in those woods? Our second story revolves around Harold the doll. A seemingly cursed and haunted object that some claim has spoken, threaten, hurt, and even killed. What evil is trapped inside this old doll and how did it get there? Also, an especially spooky story was sent in by one of our listeners. Which tale, if any, will leave you feeling scared to death?

"She heard something make it to the door outside their room and then stop. And then she heard and saw the doorknob jiggle - like someone was just about to let themselves in, and she screamed..."

A quote from today's second of two tales. Our first tale is the story of Popobawa, a cryptid that is reported to have had attacked several villagers on Zanzibar's Pemba Island several times since the 1970s. Our second story takes us to Haverfordwest, Wales, where a young couple gets the deal of a lifetime on a downtown home that quickly turns from their dream house into their worst nightmare. Which story will leave you feeling scared to death?

Satanic Panic

"...in order to keep being protected, they had to pay a Satanic toll of sacrificial blood and human souls..."

A quote from today's second of two Satanic tales. Our first story is one of a young Wiccan who believes that four decades ago he followed his curiosity about the dark side of the occult straight into Hell itself. Our second story goes over some very spooky and real crime details revolving around a small group of Satanists who sacrificed at least three women to Lucifer in some haunted woods near Fall River, Massachusetts in 1979 and 1980. Hope both tales leave you Scared to Death. Happy Halloween!!

"Whether thou art a ghost that hath come from the earth, or a phantom of night that hath no home… or one that lieth dead in the desert… or a ghost unburied… or a demon or a ghoul… Whatever thou be until thou art removed… thou shalt find here no water to drink… Thou shalt not stretch forth thy hand to our own… Into our house enter thou not. Through our fence, breakthrough thou not… we are protected though we may be frightened. Our life you may not steal, though we may feel SCARED TO DEATH.”

Burned Alive

Wed, 23 Oct 2019 06:45:00 +0000

"...late one night, laying in his bed, surrounded by that strange oppressive feeling... a new source of fear emerged from the darkness..."

A quote from today's second tale. Our first story offers a further explanation of one of the items in our studio - a Dybbuk box. I'll explain the historical basis for this box and I’ll also share a modern tale involving this ancient monster trapper. Our second story involves a young boy who witnessed the terrible death of a stranger, and then appears to have been either haunted by the angry spirit of that unfortunate man or by some other dark entity that preyed on his memory of that gruesome death in order to inflict further psychological harm. Hope both tales leave you Scared to Death!

Haunted From the Future

Wed, 16 Oct 2019 06:45:00 +0000

"The face of the woman inched towards her own as if it would soon open its mouth and devour her. Beatrice closed her eyes and began to pray..."

A quote from today's first tale - the exploration of the possibility that perhaps some apparitions are not the remnants of the once living, but the psychic projection of the still alive. Was a Cornish woman named Beatrice somehow presented with a vision of an evil encounter that had never happened but would years later? Our second story is the tale of Kentucky's Carl Pruitt, the "Chain Strangler." Urban legend or real revenant? A mixture of both? If a ghost can go bump in the night, or turn off a light, or move items around a room - can it also kill you?

The Beast

Wed, 9 Oct 2019 06:45:00 +0000

"He awoke in the middle of the night to what he described as 'a man with big black eyes, a thin face with animal features and jagged teeth, pointed ears, horns, and hoofs' standing above him..."

A quote from today's second tale - the "Devil Made Me Do It" demonic possession of both David Glatzel and Arne Johnson in 1981 that ended in another man's murder. Our first tale is "The Northfleet Horror," a story of an incredible amount of malevolent poltergeist activity that caused three separate families to move out of a building in Northfleet, England in 1962. Did either tale terrify you? Do you have a scary story of your own to share with us? Send in your stories to mystory@scaredtodeathpodcast.com Send anything else to info@scaredtodeathpodcast.com

Making New "Friends"

Wed, 2 Oct 2019 06:45:00 +0000

"Meanwhile, Robbie continued to use his Ouija board, a board he now hid from his family, to talk to his aunt Harriet and her new “friends."

A quote from today's second tale - the exorcism of Robbie Mannheim aka Roland Doe (his real name remains hidden), the story that inspired the infamous 1973 horror film, "The Exorcist." A fourteen-year-old used his Ouija board to try and contact his deceased and beloved aunt after her death in 1949. And he did seem to contact "something." What was it? Our first tale involves a Portuguese encounter with a red-eyed shadow person. What did Daniel Pestana witness late one night in Libson? Which story scares you out the most? How can we improve this new show and make it even scarier? Let us know! We're not doing our job right if you don't have nightmares or at least get the chills.

A Killer in the Attic

Wed, 25 Sep 2019 06:45:00 +0000

"Each murder victim had been killed the same way, with a single and a powerful blow with the mattock to the head."

A quote from today's second tale - the Hinterkaifeck Farm family mass-murder mystery of 1922. Did something or someone hide in the Hinterkaifeck family's attic for roughly six months before killing the five members of the Hinterkaifeck family living there and their new maid with a German pickaxe? Our first tale is the story of numerous active spirits that may haunt Madison, Mississippi’s gothic chapel, The Chapel of the Cross, to this day. Which story scares you/creeps you out the most?

Visibly Shaken

Wed, 18 Sep 2019 06:55:00 +0000

"Daddy, the basement monster is standing in the upstairs window...." A quote from today's first tale - the haunting of the LaChance family in the "Screaming House" of Union, Missouri. They would last less than a month in this aggressively haunted house. Our second tale is one man's account of a run-in with two black-eyed children. What are these entities and what do they want from you? We here in the studio found today's tales scarier than last weeks. Will you? Let us know!
