Sarah and B.J. finally tackle the age-old question: what makes dolls so creepy—and why do kids love them anyway? And whatever happened to Sarah's Raggedy Ann? (If you know, please write in.)

The episode also revisits an Are You Afraid of the Dark? fan-favorite, a story of friendship as fragile—and as powerful—as the single piece of twine one girl uses to try to save another.

Submitted for your approval: an all-new episode of Midnight Society Rejects. We call this story, “The Tale of the Dollmaker.”

In this episode of Midnight Society Rejects, we dial back to Are You Afraid of the Dark?’s “The Tale of the Phone Police,” where Jake and Chris learn a costly lesson about the price you pay for prank phone calls—and for not knowing when to hang up.

BJ and Sarah explore the episode’s cautionary tale alongside memories of the early cell phone era, asking why they barely talk on the phone anymore, and what we lost when they stopped memorizing phone numbers.

Pick up the phone… if you dare… and enjoy this episode of Midnight Society Rejects.

Ever wonder what Sarah’s favorite woodsy activity is? A séance, of course. But today’s episode goes far beyond summoning spirits. We’ve got three lost campers who reappear 75 years later—looking a lot like, dare we say it… hags. We’ve got double-crossing camp frenemies with one last chance to work together if they want to escape Watcher’s Woods alive. And we've got B.J.'s high-pitched cackle. Tune in for today’s episode of Midnight Society Rejects: “The Tale of Watcher’s Woods.”

Want to learn what a smoke deck is? We don’t either. But that’s just one of the many bizarre diversions on this week’s episode! Join B.J. and Sarah as they uncover how Stacy befriends the old woman in the apartment down the hall—with terrifying results. Tune in for a tale of intergenerational friendship gone awry, unexpected twists, and the kind of creeps only Are You Afraid of the Dark? can deliver.

Ever wondered what creatures can live without their heads? Then you’re listening to the right podcast! Join Sarah and B.J. as they ponder headless… well… everything. But especially the Headless Horseman, who makes quite an appearance (from the neck down) in this recap episode of “The Tale of the Midnight Ride.” Tune in for a spooky, time-traveling romp filled with tricorner hats, school dances, an awkward near-kiss scene, and Mr. Headless himself. All this and more on today’s episode of The Midnight Society Rejects!

The Midnight Society Rejects are back with an episode sure to give you shivers. This week, Sarah and B.J. dive into the finer points of hide ’n’ seek strategy, debate the greatest water guns of the ’90s, question whether ghosts really keep a tidy house, and celebrate the unexpected power of community theater.

And of course, they break down the Are You Afraid of the Dark? episode itself—where an innocent game of hide ’n’ seek goes wonderfully, creepily wrong.

Find your hiding places, and get ready for "The Tale of Old Man Corcoran."

This week on The Midnight Society Rejects, Sarah and B.J. ask the only question that truly matters in our inevitable alien-dominated future: Which earthly items are we taking with us when the mothership lands?

Then, they dive into The Tale of the Hatching, the delightfully slimy story of siblings Augie and Jasmine Wilson, whose new boarding school turns out to be run by aliens plotting to conquer Earth one freshly hatched egg at a time. If you’re into green goo, secret underground swimming pools, and unsettling high-pitched frequencies (don’t worry—just in the TV episode, not the podcast), then tune in and give it a listen--if you dare...please dare.

What’s funnier than Gary plugging his dad’s magic shop every chance he gets? Maybe the time our producer literally couldn’t keep it together—yes, it’s the now-legendary “pants-wetting magician incident.” And that's pretty much our segue to "The Tale of the Magician's Assistant."  Come for "The Tale of The Time Producer Tyler Peed His Pants," and stay for the time 13-year-old Todd takes a job assisting a magician and learns a lot more than parlor tricks.

Sarah and B.J. are back with a ghost-filled episode that’s allegedly about a shiny red bike—which, spoiler alert, isn’t all that shiny. 🚲💀

Will Mike ever stop being haunted by his dearly departed pal, Ricky? Will the sudden appearance of parents help…or just make things weirder? And of course, no episode would be complete without a completely unnecessary but heartfelt tangent—this time on bike safety. (“Wear a helmet!” “Always say, ‘Passing on your left!’”)

All this and more await in the newest episode of The Midnight Society Rejects.

BJ and Sarah are back with an episode that’s sure to get you howling: “The Tale of the Full Moon.” Buckle up for an overly descriptive journey involving raw meat, canine-themed brotherly love, and one tragically trapped T-shirt on a nail. Along the way, BJ and Sarah bare their very strong lunar opinions—BJ is proudly pro-Moon, while Sarah remains… let’s say, moon-curious. Finally, the hosts tackle the age-old cosmic question: what’s the difference between astrology and astronomy? (Seriously—if you know, please write in.)

Another spooky, silly night with your favorite (and only) members of the Midnight Society Rejects.
