We begin this week at The Northern Crown: An extravagant Russian hotel that never welcomed a single guest, accumulated decades of deaths, rumors, and claims of a towering shadow figure lurking inside—and one worker says he discovered just how dangerous that presence was shortly before the building was finally demolished. Then... holy cow is this is a weird one. The story of Alyoshenka. When an elderly Russian woman claimed she'd brought home a tiny, bizarre humanoid she found crying in the woods, no one believed her—until other witnesses saw it too, police recovered its mummified body, and an increasingly bizarre mystery began to unfold. We travel back to the US where we visit Cincinnati's Music Hall for a series of creepy events. Wrapping up this weeks show, a young child makes an offering to something that keeps visiting her. 

Also! Exciting news! We were lucky enough to voice a carnival couple, Hank and his wife, for the episode, “Clown Heads” By Em Starr on THE NO SLEEP PODCAST! Do yourselves a favor and go check it out! Tell us how we did! Be sure to leave David and his team a 5 star review where you consume this media. We hope you enjoy this special collaboration as much we loved doing it!

AMAZING new merch in the store this month, head on over to badmagicproductions.com to grab your killer clown t's, dancing moth designs or maybe the same apron that Maggie wore at Peterson's!

In this sixty-fifth installment of fictional horror written and narrated by Dan Cummins, we visit units 1214 and 1216 East Delaware street, a duplex in a not-so-great part of town in some city in the southern American midwest. Something is really not right with one of the tenants. And the property manager, Bernie, curiously seems to know a lot more about what's going on than he should.

Dan introduces us to a new thing to be afraid of, the qareen. This entity feels like a suped up doppleganger. We hope you like it! The, a much kinder entity helps a young woman out when she is having a really bad day. Then Lynze also has a helpful ghost called Sarah, who helps keep a baby safe. Lastly, the creepiest version of Winnie The Pooh makes an appearance.

This week, Dan is coming in hot with a ouija board double feature. First, a group of teenage boys are having the most boring afternoon when thigs take a turn in a different direction. Then, three sisters enjoy many sessions of nothing happening while they play with their ouija board. Until it all goes south and they meet the demon, Zozo. Lynze's first tale is a bit unusual, making us scratch our heads and ask if the paranormal is something "real" or something "learned". What say you? Lastly, a creepy kid invites her babysitter to join her in playing with something no one else can see.

A young couple who move into a beautiful old house in upstate New York,  discover that something inside seems capable of doing far more than simply frightening its occupants, in Dan's first story. As the years pass, unexplained footsteps, violent disturbances, apparitions, accidents, and disturbing changes in the people who live there leave them wondering whether or not the house itself is slowly destroying everyone who stays too long. Then, two professional puppeteers living above their basement theater in Greenwich Village begin sharing their old townhouse with phantom footsteps, the scent of mysterious perfume, and an elegantly dressed stranger who appears and disappears without explanation. Then Hans Holzer arrives with a medium—and what begins as an unusually charming haunting takes a sudden dark turn.Then, Lynze has three stories that are all connected, similarly to Dan's! Ironic! Her tales explore various kinds of spirits in haunted houses. It sure does make you wonder how often we are surrounded by the dead, how often we simply brush things off or miss signals from the other side.

Dan switches things up with four short stories this week. First, three friends explore an abandoned building expecting nothing more than old dust and rusted shelves but what they hear, feel, and see are  hard to explain things. The second tale is... well... odd. Next, a dying husband makes his wife promise something before he passes: never let his treasured clock stop running... or he’ll come back and haunt her. Was he joking? Lastly, a group of kids playing flashlight games deep in the woods hears something they know shouldn't exist: a cheerful tune that usually brings kids’ joy in the summer. But not at night. And not way out in the woods.Then Lynze has three awesome paranormal horror stories. She begins with one of Dan's biggest fears, clowns. Then, she moves over to creepy condo that has it's fair share of happenings with no real answers. Lastly, is a glitch in the matrix or something more?

In this sixty-third installment of fictional horror written and narrated by Dan Cummins, Maggie and Ray have finally learned enough about Peterson’s Grocery to understand just how badly they need to get away—but the mysterious Wes Calder believes he knows how to end the nightmare for good. As another experiment approaches, everyone is drawn back toward Peterson’s for a night that could determine not only who survives… but whether what’s happening beneath St. Jerome can still be stopped.

We do just one massive story with Dan again this week.  We’re traveling to Hong Kong this week to the small island of Cheung Chau where a pair of deaths in the summer of 1989 at the Bela Vista Villa resort led to a rash of suicides in the ensuing decades that many have blamed on a Nü Gui - a vengeful female spirit whose anger and pain have twisted it in death into something unrecognizable from the human it once was and something incredibly malevolent - and truly dangerous. With Lynze's tales on the back half of the show, we explore a very terrifying camping tale in Arizona and a sweet gift gone wrong.

Dan's  one and only - but much bigger than normal story - we visit an abandoned mining town in Chile's unforgiving Atacama Desert. Locals claim that on rare nights, a bell rings through the ruins and the dead quietly return to finish a day that may have never truly ended. Lynze brings us four tales this week! Peggy The Doll seems to be having long term affects on one listener who didn't properly say good-bye, as the rules go. Then, a midnight snack break is ruined by someone, or something, making its presence known. When a new baby comes home, things get a little bit spoopy on the baby monitor. Lastly, some supernatural spooning?
