"They continued to hear the sounds of footsteps behind them. Getting louder. Gaining on them. Their only source of hope was the soft breeze constantly flowing through from the opposite end. The cool, dry air. Finally - they reached a t-shaped intersection. Which way to turn?"

In another fun week of spoopy fun, Dan shares two incredible stories. Our first story takes us to Oregon, just outside of Portland. Two friends take an adventure into a supposedly haunted mental hospital that is home to tunnels that connect to another abandoned building. Do they encounter an angry entity? Do they run into a former patient? Was it all in their heads? For Dan's second tale, it is short and not-so-sweet. Lynze hates the ending of this one; what do you think about an unfinished tale?

In the second half of the show, Lynze takes us to a possible haunting in Bozeman, Montana, in an old forest service lookout. Was it a ghost that entered this space? Was someone sleep walking? And who took the dog out in the middle of the night? For story number two, a fan submission makes us wonder if mirrors truly are a portal for spirits.

"Whether thou art a ghost that hath come from the earth, or a phantom of night that hath no home… or one that lieth dead in the desert… or a ghost unburied… or a demon or a ghoul… Whatever thou be until thou art removed… thou shalt find here no water to drink… Thou shalt not stretch forth thy hand to our own… Into our house enter thou not. Through our fence, breakthrough thou not… we are protected though we may be frightened. Our life you may not steal, though we may feel SCARED TO DEATH."

"She tried to turn to follow him but she couldn’t. She was tied down. She couldn’t move. She could see the dark layout of the tent and cast her eyes around for the unseen presence. 

Then she heard it. 

Coming from right above her left ear, a sound like a drill."

A quote from the first of Dan's two stories this week. A supposedly haunted island off the coast of Italy, Poveglia takes us on a journey that makes us question, what CAN a spirit, a doctor no less, do to us, from the other side. A few friends travel to the island in search of fun and get so much more than they bargained for. In Dan's second story of the week, we travel to China to talk about a possible/probably alien abduction. In the listener told stories, Lynze prompts us with a question about how possible it may be to control what you see of the other world. In story number two, Lynze goes far outside of her comfort zone to bring you a story about aliens and the plans they might have for a very special father and daughter.

"He ended up taking his sword to her face. He sliced open her cheeks from the corners of her mouth to her ears, and then he asked her, “Who will think you’re beautiful now?”

A quote from the first of Dan's two stories this week. This first tale takes us to Japan for a haunting story about the Slit-Mouthed Woman. Once you see her, you are almost guaranteed to die. Or are you? Is there a way to avoid being drawn in by this mysterious woman and losing your life to her? The second story takes us back to Idaho! We are going to Idaho Falls once again. What is going on down there? Is this part of Idaho particularly haunted? Let's find out. For the second half of the show, Lynze shares the occasional three fan stories to switch it up. All of the stories have a similar vibe about unknown entities in various situations, each affecting the listeners in different ways. The final of the three stories is the most disturbing. Do you think that child ghosts could be luring other children to the other side so they might have a forever playmate?

"He was in Scarlett’s room in seconds, flinging his door open before bounding down the hall and quickly popping into his daughter’s room where she was sitting up in her bed. And he immediately saw that something was sitting with her..."

A quote from our first story. We head to Idaho for both tales today. First, we share some encounters a woman claims she and her family experienced shortly after moving into a Pocatello apartment. Then, we head to Pocatello High School, were security camera footage emerged in 2014 of what appears to be a shadowy humanoid entity. And we share a tale of a former high school custodian encountering something terrible in the band room. Lynze closes out the show by sharing some disturbing listener tales.

"He thrashed against whatever was holding him, desperately trying to kick himself free. The woman in blue smiled and he then heard what he knew was her voice inside his head. 'Stay…. stay…'”

A quote from our second story. For our first tale today, we explore the Cajun legend of the Cauchemar, a specific, demonic spiritual presence believed by some living in and around certain parts of Louisiana to harm them after it invades their dreams. And for the second story, we head to Georgia for tales to stories revolving around the first haunted body of water we’ve talked about so far here on Scared to Death - Lake Lanier. And then Lynze shares some listener tales of allegedly true terror.

“Just stay upstairs,” he thought to himself. “Whatever you are, just please stay upstairs...”

A quote from today's second of two opening tales! Today's first story is another black-eyed kid encounter story. Kind of. A woman in New Hampshire has claimed to have witnessed two different black-eyed entities on two different occasions. In the next story, we explore the many ghosts of Amherstburg, Ontario. The Canadian town is full of all kinds of alleged paranormal activity and we share several sightings, ending on one particularly in-depth and disturbing story. Lynze closes out the show by sharing two listener-submitted reports of living in haunted homes.

"Chase began to walk down the hallway. His legs were heavy. He was afraid of what was behind the last door. The black door..."

A quote from today's second of two opening tales! Had a great time recording the first episode of the second year of the show. We start with the mysterious disappearances of Charlie Ashmore and Ambrose Bierce. Then, we explore the dark side of hypnosis. What if you were hypnotized by someone who did not have your best interests in mind? A strange, unnerving hypnosis-related tale awaits you. Lynze closes out the show by sharing another three listener-submitted encounters with the unknown.

"People who’d known Arnold in life testified over and over that they had seen him walking through the village in the weeks following his documented death..."

A quote from today's second of three opening tales! We have a big episode for you today as this week marks the one-year anniversary of the show. Thank you for making this show a success! Our first story covers the legend of Missouri's Zombie Road and includes a few alleged encounters with something terrible. Then we head to Romania and Serbia and dig into tales of the strigoi - cryptid predecessor to tales of modern vampires. For our third story, we head to Italy and share a ghost hunter getting more than he bargained for during a stay at Villa De Vecchi - an abandoned mansion rumored to be one of Italy’s most haunted houses. And then Lynze shares three listener-submitted encounters with the spooky and the unknown for our biggest episode yet!

"Then, he felt the air around him get heavier and heavier until it no longer felt like air at all. It felt like water. It felt like he was drowning."

A quote from today's first tale. Our first story centers on the haunted history of the RMS Queen Mary - supposedly the world's most haunted ship, currently operating as a hotel in Long Beach, California. How many spirits from its days as a transatlantic liner still haunt its labyrinth of cabins, hallways, and various decks? Our second story is all about "La Pascualita," the world's most infamous mannequin. Is the mannequin possessed? Is it the corpse of a long dead bridal shop's daughter? After these two creepy stories, Lynze shares some intense listener tales of encounters with the unknown.
