Morbid Moment

It's a popular belief in the Western world that the number 13 is unlucky... But why is that, and does the old superstition hold any truth? Stick and Red do their best to find out, all while hoping they haven't accidentally cursed themselves in the process.

In this episode, Stick shares the story of a little town in Pennsylvania that wound up the inspiration for many of the visual elements of the first Silent Hill movie. What about it could be so bad as to inspire a horror movie? Listen to find out. (And if you like the episode, check us out on Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/morbidmoment)

We are uploading from another state this week, so here's something a little different (and shorter) than usual.

Today, we explore whether or not there is such a thing as "too much morbid" as we dive into the story of Ed Gein--one of the most creatively disturbing serial killers of all time. If you were dying to learn what the "nipple belt" was all about, today is your lucky day.

One morning, the people of Devon awoke to find mysterious tracks in the snow. Were they left by an animal, or by... THE DEVIL?? In this episode, Stick and Red do their best to figure it out. We also talk about our new Patreon page, and whether or not either of us have seen a ghost.As a fun note, I had to write #satan in this episode's tags. Enjoy!

It's April 1st, also known as April Fool's Day! And do you know who loves to play tricks on people? Poltergeists.In this episode, Stick and Red explore the ins and outs of a 70s haunting that is still widely discussed (and debated) to this day. Is it the work of crafty children, or is something more sinister at play?

In this special, sleep-deprived episode, Stick recites the plot of Botan Dōrō, a Japanese ghost story. Well, okay, she paraphrases it. And maybe adds a few things. Oh, and the play that is based on this story is cursed. Yikes!

Wow, it only took five episodes for Stick to crack and start talking about vampires. In this episode, we explore some of the lore that feeds into our modern-day depictions of the European-style vampire, as well as the many morbid (and kind of awesome) ways that people have come up with to "kill" them.Apologies again for sound in this episode; you can hear everyone just fine, but the echo from our kitchen is a little distracting. Fixes are in the works!
