Nanni Janie shares a feel good story of the week.

This lower budget production was filmed with actors who had little to no experience- similar to the movie Gary is working on right now. Will Ranch of Horror be the next horror flick with a cult like following?

The group discusses que line entertainment. Things we have done in the past, things we have seen and things we would like to see.

Molly Poppins shares her marketing tip of the week.

Heartless Heather's paranormal story is derailed when Molly shares a story about sticky sour patch kids leading her to set up cameras in her home. Molly doesn't eat sour patch kids and she hasn't had any guests over to leave the mess- so how did they get there?

"Haunt love" it is a thing- every year there's a juicy affair formed during haunt season. What causes it? Our guess is working in close quarters with someone who shares your interest, because let's face it if your working in the haunt industry you're probably pretty passionate about what you are doing. Is it real love? From our experience the answer is no. Most of the relationships that start during haunt season don't last forever. So our advice is not to walk away from your happy home for a seasonal love, like one of our cast members preaches from experience now.

This episode we discuss haunt love. 

Nannie Jannie shares her love for haunters who support each other across the country and around the world.
