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!

Opening Sumerian protection spell (adapted):

"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."

In this seventh installment of fictional horror written and narrated by Dan Cummins, we travel to Savannah, Georgia, where a young couple on vacation check into a very unusual hotel, The 1780. Will they ever check out?  

This episode is scored by Logan Keith. We recommend listening with headphones to experience the full effect of all the creepy background noises!  If you like this episode, please let us know wherever you rate and review podcasts.

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. 

Monthly Patreon Donation: This month, on April 23rd, we celebrate World Book Day! As lovers of knowledge and escapism, books are some of our most favorite things to spend our time and money on. In honor of World Book Day, this months donation will be going to “First Book”, a non profit working to inspire young minds through books. They believe that books are a critical resource for kids but they can be scarce for those who are disadvantaged. In fact, “First Book” has discovered “book deserts” in low-income communities, often revealing just ONE book to be shared amongst 830 kids. You heard that right! If books have helped you escape hard times, provided you with entertainment or education, then you know just how important books are! We are sending $12,950 to First Book! If you want to learn more about this organization, please visit firstbook.org.

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!

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.

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.

In this fifth installment of fictional horror written and narrated by Dan Cummins, we travel to Pazin, Croatia, where five American college students who have been studying abroad in Florence, Italy, are staying at The Villa of Moonlight for a long weekend.

Dan has tale that takes us to Buffalo, New York where we learn about the Mount Massive Asylum and a terrible sorority hazing gone sideways. Next, we go to Guadalajara to hear stories and lore surrounding the Santa Paula Cemetery. Lynze has a palate cleanser story to kick of her side of the show. It's a really beautiful, tear jerker of a tale. Then we visit Louisiana State Penitentiary at Angola for four encounters with different entities that seem to be hanging around.

A history tale and a spoopy tale all rolled into Dan's first story of this weeks show. Come to Tasmania with us and explore a truly haunting location.  Then, we are off to São Paulo for a bit more history and another heart aching story filled with mystery and scary moments.  Lynze offers us three tales this week! She kicks off with a strange sighting of something unknown while housesitting. Then childhood nightmares take a turn when they are confirmed to be much more not once but twice. Wrapping it up, an attachment tale coming to us from Jakarta!

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?
