S1 E4 | Christmas Ghost Stories and Other Tales of Winter Terror

In this festive season finale, Lindsay and Nick hang their stockings by the chimney with care and try to catch Santa red-handed while they roast chestnuts over an open fire and read creepy Victorian era stories featuring ghosts and goblins, and discuss Alpine legends from Bavarian and Austrian folklore, including but not limited to Frau Perchta and Krampus, and we get a refresher on the spooky origins of the miracle of St. Nicholas. Then, our resident cartoonist and regular Draw This Thing contestant, Nick, closes out the show with a drawing of a hangry tomten, just in time for a long winter’s nap.

S1 E3 | Meatier-ology

In this meaty episode, Nick and Lindsay enjoy weather-themed cocktails and take shelter from the storm as they tackle weird weather events throughout history, including blood rains, manna from heaven, the Jefferson County Worm Shower of 1897, the Kentucky Meat Shower of 1876, gilt-edge worms, sky whale explosions, Fortean fog, and so much more! They also feature a freaky fog story told by a friend, and finish out the show with a rousing round of good old fashioned Draw This Thing, because if it ain’t broke, why fix it? Many thanks to Steve for the story contribution, and to our listeners, for listening. Twitter: @spookyactionpod IG: @thespookyactionshow 🥞 Show The Spooky Action Show some love!

S1 E2 | The Man Who Lived Over Three Centuries and Tales of Alchemical Immortality

In this immortal alchemist extravaganza, Lindsay and Nick drink Sleepy Hollow cocktails and talk about the quest for immortality, Uncle Fed Messer (the man who lived over three centuries), retro theme park commercials, the search for the philosopher’s stone, the life and death of Nicholas Flamel, the Count of St. Germain, the ascended master A-list, and more! Then, in keeping with tradition, they close out the show with a truly unsettling round of Draw This Thing (including a live Mandela effect “on the air”) before disappearing into an existential abyss. A huge thanks to Simon Webb for graciously permitting us to read an excerpt from his fantastic book, The Life and Legend of Nicholas Flamel: Discoverer of the Philosopher’s Stone?, which we highly recommend.
