Happy Halloween, friends and ghouls. Recently, I was featured on an episode of Perplexity: A Mystery Podcast hosted by friend of the show Kaydra Brannan. We were also joined by friends Cassidy Liston from Drinking the Koolaid and Shelby Novak of Scare You To Sleep, and plenty of others. We'll be telling some very terrifying tales to celebrate the best holiday of the year.

  I wanted to share this episode with you as a Halloween treat because it was a lot of fun and I know you’re going to enjoy this one. Kaydra and Cassidy will also be joining us for the live stream episode of Let’s Not Meet tomorrow evening, November 1st at 7PM Pacific over at twitch.tv/crypticcounty share even MORE creepy stories. This year’s Halloween couldn’t get any better. Enjoy this episode of Perplexity, and I’ll see you tomorrow night! Don’t Miss It!

____________________

To ring in 150 EPISODES, Kaydra invites some friends to the show to read some of their favorite spooky stories from the internet. Happy Halloween!
