Scared To Death

In this thirty-sixth installment of fictional horror written and narrated by Dan Cummins.... we meet a man, Duncan Briggs, who agrees to participate in a paid scientific study to make a little cash to get his wife something nice for her birthday while he's in-between jobs. And then things get.... weird. Very, very uncomfortably weird.

We hope all our Creeps and Peeper are also unsettled by our tales this week. Dan starts off in  North Carolina with a story about a man who tried to transform into an actual demon. And some think he was, in a way, successful. Then, his second tale is the story of some of the residents of a housing development outside of Houston, built on a forgotten cemetery, who claim that the spirits of those whose remains were disrespected were both awakened and angered by the destruction of their final resting place. Lynze has three stories today! Her first also takes us to Texas where a strange situation occurs with a neighbor. Then, a woman traveling alone has the creepiest taxi ride to her hotel. Lastly, a young boy runs into the former owner of his Grandmother's home.  Scared To Death Merch: Exciting new merch is up in the store!

First, we head to Korea where Dan shares stories about one of the most disturbing ghosts The Kong-Kong Gwishin. She is the ghost of a schoolgirl doomed to haunt in death those who remind her of her tormenters in life. Then Dan take us to Poland, to the little Polish border town of Gubin, where an anonymous man on Reddit claims his parents experienced something truly horrifying long ago. Lynze offers three really fun stories this week. Her first is loosely connected to the fan-favorite tale from episode #31. Next, can an object reject you? Lastly, a new scary but maybe not scary person or creature, The Flute Man.  Scared To Death Merch: Exciting new merch is up in the store!

We begin this week in a place literally called the Suicide Forest. Aokigahara. Dan will share the whisperings of hauntings from this infamous Japanese location. Then, we’ll head to Italy for an Italian folklore tale about La Borda. Lynze offers us three stories this week. The first two are an alien/UFO double feature. Her last story, though not traditionally scary, does offer us a confirmation from the other side.  Scared To Death Merch: Exciting new merch is up in the store!
