Hello, hello! Welcome to Episode 14 and our second-ever "Whispers From The Inbox" special. This is the heart of our show—an entire episode dedicated to listener-submitted stories and the best of Reddit horror. From psychological thrillers to supernatural warnings, these tales are SOMETHING ELSE, man.

• "They’re Still Out There" (Part 2): We pick back up with the latest installment from the legendary Jacob The Narrator. Picking up from Episode 12, this chapter features a twist so shocking it left us hanging onto our seats. We are officially counting down the days until Chapter 3!

• "I Did Not Hurt Them": Reddit user Donavin221 takes internet stalking and digital harassment to a terrifying new level. This story explores the dark side of social media anonymity and how quickly a "spam account" can turn into a living nightmare.

• "I Don’t Let My Dog Inside Anymore": A heart-wrenching and chilling tale from u/MorbidSalesArchitect. Don't let the title fool you—this story has "all the feels" and a slow-burn mystery that pays off in a big way.

• "If You Ever Find Undeveloped Polaroids in an Empty House, Don't Touch Them": We wrap up with a submission from reddit user Dudeitsbryan. If you ever find old, undeveloped photos in an abandoned house—don't touch them. This creepy AF account isn't what you expect; it’s much, much better.

Do you have a paranormal encounter, a "glitch in the matrix," or a hilarious "palate cleanser" story? Your story could be the star of our next Whispers From The Inbox!

Welcome to Episode 13! We’re leaning into the superstition this week with a deep dive into the most feared (and revered) number in history. From the pine barrens of New Jersey to the cinematic "Black Zodiac," this episode is a complete psychological and supernatural rollercoaster.

• The Power of 13: Whitney breaks down the history of Triskaidekaphobia—the fear of the number 13. Why does our society skip the 13th floor, and where did this cursed reputation begin?

• The Jersey Devil: We explore the legendary 13th child of Mother Leeds. Discover the 18th-century folklore of the Jersey Devil, a winged cryptid born of a mother’s curse in the desolate Pine Barrens.

• The Black Zodiac (13 Ghosts): Mena takes us on a DEEP dive into the cult-classic horror film 13 Ghosts. We break down the terrifying backstories of the ghosts—from The Jackal to The Juggernaut—and share real-life historical accounts that mirror these chilling archetypes.

• The Ghostly Archetypes: Learn the lore behind the spirits trapped in the glass house and how their "Black Zodiac" signs represent the darkest parts of the human experience.

Do you have a "lucky 13" story or a brush with a cryptid that left you shaking? We want to hear from you! Whether it’s Malice (the scares) or Mirth (the laughs), send them our way.

Welcome back to Of Malice and Mirth! This week, we’re serving up a "double whammy" of high-octane conspiracy theories and ancient, terrifying architecture. From government experiments in New York to a "bottomless pit" in the Czech Republic, we’re covering the world’s most haunted and mysterious locations.
