SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. Dan has a mysterious disappearance and an urban legend that some think is a lot more than just a legend. His first tale focuses on the strange circumstances surrounding the disappearance of a young man in Colorado back in 2008. The second story will bring us to a cemetery in Iowa where an angelic statue has gained a reputation for not being very…. angelic. Is the Black Angel of Iowa City, Iowa's Oakland Cemetery cursed? Lynze has two great stories this week as well! She will kick it off with a bizarre and hard-to-explain story about a hot tub and a cell phone- we will leave it at that. And her second story is a banger with haunted house vibes, doppelgangers, and a jinn! Patreon Monthly Donation: In November, we always choose a Veteran/Military non-profit in honor of Veteran's Day. This year, we have decided to donate to The Blue Skies Foundation. The Brotallion Blue Skies Foundation is a veteran-founded non-profit dedicated to providing post-mishap support for the Army Aviation community and their families. They consider themselves fortunate to be part of a close-knit community and thus see their responsibility to give back and support the families of those who have lost loved ones. They hope to honor the legacies of those who have fallen and support their families through the work of the Brotallion Blue Skies Foundation. We will send them $12,884 this month and add $1430 to the scholarship fund for distribution next year. If you'd like to learn more or support the Blue Skies Foundation, please visit thebrotallionblueskiesfoundation.org.

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. Dan shares the story of a Korean horror lore that many people claim to be much more than an urban legend.

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. Dan's first story to share this week revolves around a clock. While it might not sound so scary, it's actually terrifying. Could a clock be built as an occult object? Could it have some sort of demonic entity attached to it? Let's find out! Next, the story of a ton of UFO sightings coming from Italy in October of 1954. Could roughly 10,000 people have all seen the same UFOs at a football match? Lynze has some animal themed tales this week, which is kind of funny but not really. Her first story features a bunny, which is known to be a symbol of the underworld. What was this particular bunny up to? And then, her worst nightmare, frogs! What is going on with these frogs throwing themselves up against a window? Tune in and find out! New Merch: Brand new Spoopy design featuring an adorable wide eyed bat and large words SPOOPY.

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. Dan's first story is really three stories mixed with some local lore. First, after going over the kinds of paranormal encounters most often reported from people visiting Virginia’s Braley, we explore the story of a murder that took place that that has added to its reputation as a paranormal hotspot. Then, we’ll go over what an area ghost hunter claims happened to them there. And finally, a young woman’s terrifying modern encounter claim. After that, we’ll be off to Canada to cover a whole bunch of lore associated with numerous sightings of a night hag in Newfoundland. Lynze shares just one big story this week about a less scary but rather helpful spiritual hitchhiker! New Merch: The official merch for our 3rd annual Haunted Halloween Show is here!

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. Dan has a story about a home in San Francisco that was reportedly infested with a LOT of paranormal activity for several months in the mid-19th century. It is unusually well-documented amount of activity witnessed by many. Then his second story takes us to Arkansas where we explore a haunting set in the unique location of the Plum Bayou Mounds Archeological State Park, formerly known as "Toltec Mounds Archeological State Park.” Lynze has four tales this week making it a longer episode, yay! She has two possible skinwalker sightings, an encounter with the folk lore of the Irish Banshee and then a really intense doppleganger story!

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. The top of the episode story involves lore surrounding the old Athens Asylum, once found in Athens, Ohio. The asylum was absorbed by Ohio University after it closed down, and some wonder if the spirits that allegedly once haunted the asylum now haunt the campus. Then a shorter story set in Barbados. We’ll explore the mystery of the old Chase Vault. Did a bunch of coffins move around on their own, not once but several times, in the early 19th century? The back half of the show provides some head scratchers! The first tale would seem to be about an entity that continually shows up in a young mans that he thinks he has a connection to but then, at the end, we learn an additional detail that makes him wonder otherwise. The final tale has Dan and Lynze questioning multi-verse. Was there a glitch in the matrix one late night, last fall? You decide. HAUNTED HALLOWEEN SHOW!

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. The first story this week involves a woman who spent her life in New Hampshire centuries ago being mistreated for being a supposed witch! Does her angry spirit now behave in ways similar to how people worried she acted like in life? Did the torment she received create the monster her former neighbors worried about? Then what do you do if your child is regularly seeing ghosts in your home? Ghosts you can’t see, but you do find proof that what she’s saying sure does not seem made up. Three more tales on the back half of this episode. A seemingly normal stop for a bite to eat at a diner turns into a less than normal evening for one man. Next up, are the aliens playing jokes on us? This tale is similar to one we heard last week. And finally, one of everyone's fear come true- something in the closet reaching out for you. Bad Magic Productions Monthly Patreon Donation: This month’s charity will be Sustainable Alamance, a non profit based in North Carolina. The mission of Sustainable Alamance is to focus on and help individuals who were formerly incarcerated gain and sustain employment so that they may not only live within the community constructs but to also contribute to society as well. Reading about the steps that are required for formerly incarcerated people to even begin to build their life again was an eye opener and I say this as someone who has a family member who is a felon. I guess I just didn’t comprehend the obstacles. Sustainable Alamance has this quote on their website and I just love it: Poverty is not a lack of money but a lack of resources. We believe that you can “give a man fish” (charity) and even “teach a man to fish” (grace and mercy) but we must also ensure access to the lake (hope and justice). If you’d like to learn more about Sustainable Alamance, you can visit sustainablealamance.org. $1,546 will be put into the scholarship fund for 2024 and $13,915 to be donated to Sustainable Alamance.

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. Dan's tales today takes us to Arkansas, to the grounds of a former treatment facility for tuberculosis, a disease that ran rampant in the US for decades. We’ve learned that hospitals and asylums are hot beds for paranormal activity, and this Sanatorium is no different. And then, we head to Scotland and visit a haunted castle! Castle Fraser is reportedly haunted by numerous spirits. We share some history, a bit of lore, and two modern encounter claims. Lynze has two wonderfully spoopy tales this week. Her first tale about a small town where people going missing will have you wishing everyone there would GTFO. Then, she has a story about a possible alien abduction. It's weird story! SHOW DAN SOME LOVE!

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. Dan kicks off with the story of a young woman around a century ago in a mining town who reaches out to the other side to try and communicate with her dead father and brother. And she contacts SOMETHING. Then, a latchkey kid encounters a special kind of terror that makes spending time alone at home even harder than it already is for a young child. Lynze has two awesome stories this week. The first could be considered a reminder about being wary of what you buy second hand. Then the second story is a bit less creepy but still a great story about an abandoned brothel. New Merch: Hitting the Bad Magic store is the SEVERED collection featuring gory prosthetics! Hyper realistic, bloody severed human parts in magnet and keychain form.

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. We’ll cover a bunch of paranormal Gamecock lore… aka lore from The University of South Carolina. We’ve also added an alleged modern paranormal encounter said to have taken place in the university’s Longstreet Theatre. Then we meet a traveling nurse who claims to have been terrorized by a strange, seemingly sentient entity in his short term rental in Colton, California, just outside of Riverside. How dangerous can some black mold be? A story that will make you scratch your head is next. How can two women who have nothing in common except for dating the same man, 4 years apart, experience the exact some paranormal entity in said man's parents home? Lastly, a ghost on a mission to save her still living family- a sweet tale to wrap it up! SHOW DAN SOME LOVE!

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. Dan has his normal two stories again. And there’s a theme with them both -faith seemingly conquering evil. The first story is set in the present day - centered around a woman living alone in North Carolina in what she’d hoped was going to be her dream home. And then a real bad former resident tries to turn her dream into a nightmare. Next, we travel over a hundred years back in time and head to southern India. A prominent family is terrorized by an entity that likes to play with fire. Literally. Lynze has three stories this week. A story about a possibly haunted gravesite, a strange tale that might make you wonder if it was a ghost or a prank and then the creepiest little story about what kids can see that we cannot. New Merch: We're excited to bring back an old favorite The 2023 Bad Magic Street Team! The stickers will be available on Wednesday, August 2nd, Noon PST.

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. Dan has a very long story followed by a very short one. The long story revolves around a social worker growing suspicious that something is really, really not right at the home of one of her clients. And when she checks on the kids, that suspicion is really, REALLY confirmed. Next some lore and a modern paranormal encounter out in the woods of Connecticut on the supposedly haunted, and abandoned, Downs Road. Lynze has three tales to share this week. Her first one is about some unwanted but possibly harmless visitors. Her second story has Dan and Lynze pondering the intersection of mental health and the paranormal. Lastly, a quick story about a possible energy vampire! New Merch: Head to badmagicmerch.com right now to get your hands on Volume of Scared To Death! Bad Magic Productions Monthly Patreon Donation: For the month of July, we decided to use the monthly donation to support The Hill Country Humane Society. Located in rural Texas, they serve a population of people who can hardly afford healthcare for themselves. The shelters are beyond capacity and Texas ranks high (top 1 or 2, depends on where you look for the stats) in the nation for euthanizing animals. The secretary of this foundation reached out to months ago, explaining that one of the best ways the Hill Country Human society could help slow the overpopulation of animals in the shelter is to spay and neuter pets. But being that they serve a low income area, that is often out of the question for owners. With this donation, we are hoping to ease the burden of pet owners in this area, as this organization is in the middle of building a mobile spay/neuter clinic. We will be sending 13,800 to Hill Country Humane Society and adding 1,533 into the scholarship fund!

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. Dan has one story today. It’s a story unlike any other ever told so far here. Very strange and creepy and good. It's an interesting paranormal take on the ocean. What strange, paranormal monsters might reside down there in the darkness? Lynze dazzles us with three tales this week! Her first, a BEK run in and boy is it creepy! Keep an eye out for one detail that keeps showing up. Then there is a sleep paralysis story that has an extra element of GTFO.

Located in rural Texas, they serve a population of people who can hardly afford healthcare for themselves. The shelters are beyond capacity and Texas ranks high (top 1 or 2, depends on where you look for the stats) in the nation for euthanizing animals. The secretary of this foundation reached out to months ago, explaining that one of the best ways the Hill Country Human society could help slow the overpopulation of animals in the shelter is to spay and neuter pets. But being that they serve a low income area, that is often out of the question for owners. With this donation, we are hoping to ease the burden of pet owners in this area, as this organization is in the middle of building a mobile spay/neuter clinic. If you are able to support your local shelters in any way, please do! We will circle back in the coming weeks to announce the total given to this charity hchstexas.com.

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. Dan has two tales to tell. The first one is a story about someone - name never given - who claims to have had a very intense and terrifying paranormal encounter, completely out of nowhere. No warning signs. No building up to it. Life is fine one moment, and they’re in Hell the next. The second story includes some history, horror lore, and encounter claims coming from a place that bills itself as one of Australia’s most haunted places - the Monte Cristo homestead. Lynze has four short tales this week, trying to mix it up a bit. She shares the stories of a call from a dead man, a creepy and possibly oppressed college roommate, a doppleganger and the shadow friends of a young child.
