Denizens of the Dark! Have you ever been told you are too weird, too strange, or too spooky? Join us as we talk about Tim Burton, a boy who was told his whole life that he was too strange and unusual, and the very special stop motion movie that became a beacon for the rest of us discarded spooky children. The Nightmare Before Christmas.

Join us with our special guest, Author Kaeleen Thorn, as we dive into the world of online mediumship. Yes, that is right! We do a seance over a virtal meeting and the results are nothing short of scary. Just remember, we warned you.

Witness the breaking of a man as he sinks deeper and deeper into the insanity that is the Leprechaun movie franchise. Friendships are tested as we asked Ricky to watch all 8 films in the franchise so that we (and you) don't have to.

Happy Saint Patrick's Day everyone!

Second of our three Friday the 13th bonus episodes this year. Join us as Lantern Bearer Leah illuminates us on another murder and the lessons that come from studying true crime.

The world of Frankenstein was even darker and more... electrifying... than we thought. Join us as we explore the mad scientist, the empathetic monster, the faminist icon bride, and the brilliant English novelest who created and inspired it all, Mary Shelley. And what the heck does prussian blue have to do with all of this?!

Extra extra! Read all about it! Our beloved dark holiday has been making headlines for over a century and we, your lantern bearers, bring to light a few articals from the past and present. Sit back and enjoy this leasure listen and hear about people, places, and things from the dark side of the newsroom.

There is a lot that is spooky about the Holiday season. In this year's Creepy Christmas episode, we party with Gryla, her Yule Cat, Her husbands, and her children, the Yule Lads. Iceland has a lot of explaining to do. Haha.

It's All Hallows Eve, and that means phantasmal forces roam the streets tonight. We're not talking Trick or Treaters. Join this years cast of story tellers and paranormal witnesses as we gather the spirits and celebrate the dark holiday. It's our tradition to tell ghost stories by lantern light, and you are invited.

dump out your pillow cases and sort your candy for trading. It's time to join the Trick or Treat Squad. Really it's just three grown men remembering the good ol' days of Halloween and talking about spooky stuff, but what a fun way to spend the evening.
