Dan brings us a creepy doll double feature today!  The first  tale, is a story of a little brother terrorized by his older sister’s doll, first by her pranking him with it, and then later, the doll seems to take the pranking  on as its own. The next doll revolves around the creepy Swiss legend of the Sennentuntschi. Can a carved wooden doll come to life? Can it get jealous? And - most disturbingly - can it skin you alive? Lynze starts of her side of the show with a classic GTFO haunted house tale. And then she scares us all with a dopplegänger story!

Opening Sumerian protection spell (adapted):

"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."

Dan comes with his usual two stories this week. One bigger one, and then a little one. We’ve done a fair amount of haunted asylum stories here over the years, but few with as detailed of a backstory as today’s. We will start by learning about Henry Cotton - a truly mad doctor who worked at the New Jersey State Hospital at Trenton, now The Trenton Psychiatric Hospital. The we will explore if his ghost  now haunts the abandoned portions of this facility. Then, Dan dives into the creepy legend of a supposedly cursed doll named, Joliet. Has this doll been killing newborn babies for decades? Is this a family of Donna's? Let's find out. Then, Lynze has two really intense stories as well and she offers a warning at the top of the show for all parents- these are going to tug at your heartstrings. In her first story, she will share a story about a young child who drowns and nearly doesn't come back. But when she does, does she bring something, or someone, with her? Wrapping up the show, she has a story about a group of friends who go camping but come back minus a friend who seems to have simply vanished. 

Patreon Monthly Donation: This month’s charity is the Committee to Protect Journalists AKA CPJ.

Between Scared to Death and Timesuck, we rely on various outlets to gather information and stories, sometimes this includes news articles from around the world. We felt this was a really cool place to give back to! We are sending them $12,926 and putting $1,438 into the scholarship fund!

Dan takes us to Ireland to explore the strange and sad lore of the Celtic Púca followed by a story from the US about Octagn Lynze has three tales this week! Her first one touches on Nordic folklore, a place we don't often explore here but when we do, we love it. Then, in her second story, she has a bizarre story that will leave all parents feeling a bit rattled. She wraps up the show with her third and final tale, about a  possible lingering energy in a home. A fun little grouping of tales!

Dan shares a most wild story of creepy Adobe Flash curse being passed around the internet. Then, Dan shares what is possibly a more disturbing tale from Bergen Norway of a Death Valley that holds much lore. Lynze has her standard two tales this week. Her first one is not that scary as you listen but then you see the picture take by the folks exploring this abandoned building and you will freak out. Then, in her last tale of the show,  a fan tale surrounding a legend seems to have lasting affects on one kid from a group of friends who go exploring.

Dan's first story is a modern encounter story that fits into the Rules of Appalachia Lore. There are a bunch of stories that floated around on TikTok and Reddit the last few years regarding what kinds of strange creatures might be in the woods of Appalachia. His  second has to do with aa Baltimore, Maryland legend. Today’s story  it that of a teenage girl who met some sort of tragic end, and whose ghost now seems to be seeking revenge on the living. Lynze has two truly epic tales this week. Her first one will take you on a rollercoaster ride like no other. A haunted house that drives a family mad, in particular one person, who never returns to the safety of our world. Story two will make all of your doll fears come to life!

Dan gives us two incredible tales this week. His first brings to life one of Dan's biggest fears: Clowns. Could you handle a night in a haunted, clown themed motel? Then, we are off to Washington DC for a throwback sighting of a dueling ghost.  Then, Lynze wonder if this podcast the problem for one home that seems to be experiencing some kind of haunting? Did we do this?! Then, for Lynze's final story, a person has a scary moment while housesitting.
