 What says haunted more than an old crypt in a foggy cemetery? I mean, crypts put the goth in gothic! In our story, “The Affair of the Dancing Coffins,” by George Brockhart something very strange in going on inside a family crypt. I do have to make a disclaimer, however. The coffins aren’t actually dancing, but their behavior is odd, nonetheless.

Uncounted horror stories and films have taken place inside crypts. What is the allure? Why are we drawn to these eerie structures? Let’s take a look at crypts. The crypt’s door is open, will you step inside?

Of course, are you kidding?

Mannequins…sales enhancement, or inducers of terror? When you see a mannequin in a store window, do you stop to examine its garment offering, or watch its eyes to see if they follow you? For me, they are just giant dolls, and fall into the “yikes” category.

In our story, “The Mannequin,” by R. J. Lawrence, a young man discovers his brother’s disturbing experiments on mannequins and meets a grisly fate. Nowadays, no one is surprised to see a mannequin in a shop window or inside a shop. They are such everyday items for us that it is hard to imagine how clothes were displayed before they existed. But do we know when mannequins were actually invented? We'll take a look at the history of mannequins.

 Have you ever heard a voice come through a radio that seemed misplaced? You might have heard a voice from beyond the veil. In our story, “The Message,” by Clinton Dangerfield, a death-row inmate and a chaplain hear a voice through the radio offering comfort. But is that truly what the spirit is offering?  Trying to contact spirits through radio waves is not a new technique for communicating with the dead. Even Thomas Edison designed one in the 1920’s.  There have been many designs since then but let’s look at its most modern counterpart, The Ghost Box.

On this episode Holly Landis’s story, “Gnome Invasion,” shows us the darker side of those cute little ceramic statues that so many people collect to decorate their gardens. To be perfectly honest, they creep me out. I always wonder what dark, evil thoughts are lurking behind their chubby grins and if they are going to attack my ankle with a trowel. We'll take a look at the lore and history of the garden gnome.

In this week’s story, “The Boy That Brought the Asylum Home,” by Mike Nesbitt, a young boy is haunted by a ghost his roommate accidently brought home from a clandestine visit to an abandoned asylum. Let’s just say, in this case, three’s a nasty crowd. Haunted asylums are popular with ghost hunters hoping to encounter and record spirit activity. We'll look at a few real experiences in a few of the most haunted asylums, including my own.

On this week’s episode we have a scientist experimenting with equipment designed to separate the spirit of a person from his body, then put it back in. It goes without saying that the experiment does not turn out well. Scientists and pseudoscientists have tried for decades to find a way to examine the soul or spirit once it has separated from a person's body. We'll examine a few actual experiments.
