  • WITCHES’ SABBATH: They Crowned Me Prince of Darkness, And I Think I Murdered My Boss With My Mind
    Join the DARKNESS SYNDICATE for the ad-free version: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicate

    Perry Harnishfeger stumbles into a bar, still wearing a silk robe over his work clothes, desperate to tell someone—anyone—about the two women in the sports car who crowned him Prince of Darkness at a party where he may or may not have murdered his boss with his thoughts. The bartender pours him a double and asks if he wants to call the police, but Perry can't answer because he's not sure if the blood under his fingernails is real or if he's still at the party, dreaming he escaped. Did he participate in the “WITCHES’ SABBATH?” | #RetroRadio EP0506
