Amanda and Sarah sprinkle some spooky potpourri and film facts all over this episode. Sarah samples various Black Dog stories along with a Pittsburgh urban legend known as Slag Pile Annie. Amanda meets at the intersection of comedy and horror with a look at the history and legacy of Bud Abbott and Lou Costello Meet Frankenstein. Other subjects covered include a weird email, a ghost encounter, and a terrifying orgasm. 

Recommendations:

Amanda doesn't recommend Scream VI but does recommend the 1976 mystery thriller Obsession.
