Scared To Death

The Spirit of Letchworth Village - Scared To Death

The Spirit of Letchworth Village

Released on 05/31/2023

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

We are heading to an abandoned and allegedly haunted asylum in New York state - Letchworth Village. Some history first, mentions of the types of sightings claimed to have occurred there, and then a super creepy modern encounter claim. Next, we’ll explore some near death experience cases. Not everyone claims to see a white light when they die… some people have claimed to have literally gone to Hell and been given a little taste of what some believe awaits much of humanity in an afterlife. Then to Vermont for two tales from different locations: Brattleboro Retreat and Hamilton Falls. Closing out the episode with a hat man story that might leave you wondering if we have been wrong about the hat man all along. 
 

New Merch:  Very cool new 'Planchette' design now available. A simple 2 color design featuring a bejeweled skull planchette and our classic S2D logo and book of ghosts icon. You can choose between a tee and baseball tee. Be sure to also check out all the latest releases like the New Protection Ritual Collection, Melting Face Collection, New Stickers and more.  Head on over to badmagicmerch.com and check it all out!
 

Bad Magic Productions Monthly Patreon Donation: On both Scared To Death and Timesuck, we talk about a lot of death in a variety of ways. And while we as a people have a fascination with murder mystery, at the end of the day, the deceased was someone’s son, wife, grandmother, uncle and so on. When a family looses a loved one in a cold case, the affects of it are painful in ways we can’t understand. The DNA Doe Project is a non profit with a simple humanitarian mission: to identify John and Jane Does using investigative genetic genealogy. We want help give some healing to those who has suffered such significant loss. Our donation amount this month is $13,988 with $1,554 also being added to the scholarship fund. To learn more, please visit dnadoeproject.org

Standup:Standup: If you want to see a very different side of Dan than you see here and possibly see Lynze in the crowd... well you will have to wait until this fall! But get your tickets now and give yourself something to look forward to! He will be all over the US so be sure go to dancummins.tv for ticket links to shows.

Released on 05/24/2023

Dan has his usual two tales this week, one short and one longer. The longer story is about a strange inheritance. A man is gifted something very unusual with some strange instructions attached.  The second story is about an island down in the Caribbean. The supposedly haunted former site of a leper colony -  Chacachacare Island. Then Lynze will tell you one big tale entitled, Ghosts In The Graveyard! 

New Merch:  Our very first Scared to Death designs is back! Re-introducing the original Dybbuk design, a classic children's book style illustration of Dan and Lynze, fighting off the evil spirit that somehow escaped from a sealed Dybbuk box. The new collection includes a standard tee, premium Comfort Colors tee, baseball tee, and insulated tumbler! Head on over to badmagicmerch.com and check it out.

Her first one will really get under your skin, cause that lingering affect. And her second tale might have you looking more closely at your vehicle when things act up!

Super cool depiction of a young witch summoning the 'Scared to Death' spirits, surrounded by her altar of skulls, candles, & books.  A cool update to one of our most popular designs.

The Quiz - Scared To Death

The Quiz

Released on 05/10/2023

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Kicking it off with a great story, Dan shares something  NOT found from some online post. Or from any articles. This tale is based on some supposedly true stories. Sophie Evans found all this. She was clearly on the same page as I was last week, when it came to worrying about how modern technology and paranormal horror can collide today. His second story is a little one. Just a peek into the rumors that India’s Bhangarh Fort is not just haunted, but curse. We’ll look at two origin stories for the curse, and at a few claims of paranormal encounters. Lynze shares story of a family haunting turned attachment that started in New York and has traveled to North Carolina. Her last tale about a possible skinwalker had Dan in stitches. Not the usual aim here but that's how it shook out!

New Merch:  
For merch this week, a terrifying depiction of a poor soul's face burning alive. It's hard to imaging a more terrifying death that being literally scorched. The new 'Flaming Face' mini collection includes a tee, coffee mug, and wall canvas. This one truly looks gross but in the best of ways. Melting eye sockets, flaming bubbling skin... clearly this person is going through it. Head on over to badmagicmerch.com and grab your beautifully disgusting merch today!

The Monster In The Machine - Scared To Death

The Monster In The Machine

Released on 05/03/2023

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan's first story is really intense. It deals with a woman being tormented in a way not quite like what we’ve covered here before. A slightly new method of mental torture. While that first story is an alleged modern encounter, Dan's second story is an old one. It begins in the 17th century. Did the Devil use her to write a strange, mysterious, cryptic letter that was only finally decoded a little over five years ago?  Lynze will share just one tale about a  haunted family heirloom. 
 

New Merch: We also just dropped a bunch of fun new stickers! We made the werewolf drunk design a holographic sticker. Also have bleeding eyes, the buzz 103 bumper sticker, and tons of new Timesuck designs as well. Check out the sticker bin at  badmagicmerch.com

Evil Unearthed - Scared To Death

Evil Unearthed

Released on 04/26/2023

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

For Dan's first story, we go to the little mining town of Cripple Creek, Colorado, from 1892. Probably doesn’t sound too terrifying. But, just imagine dealing with the worst kinds of paranormal horror that we’ve talked about here many times in the sense of it happening in recent years, where you can go stay with relatives, or get a priest or shaman, etc., to perform some kind of blessing - but now you have no one to help you and nowhere to go. You’re just stuck - as in, snowed in a homestead cabin kind of stuck - with something evil. Then Dan shares some history and then a smattering of recent paranormal sightings from England’s very historic Colchester  Castle. Lynze will share two similarly themed tales this week about little ghost boys showing up for different people in different places! What does it mean when a little boy shows up? Anything
 

New Merch:  This one is for all you creeps and peepers who just can't wait for Halloween. The ones who would elect to celebrate year round. The 'Is it Halloween Yet?' tee is now available. Three vintage style halloween masks, kinda look like the old generic plastic ones, in a classic faded black orange and green color scheme.  Available on vintage cream and  creamsicle orange tees. Head on over to badmagicmerch.com and check it out!
 

Bad Magic Productions Monthly Patreon Donation: This months’ charity is Big Table, as you have heard us talk about already and we are excited to share that we will be donating $13,986 to Big Table with another $1,554 headed to the scholarship fund! To find out more about how to support Big Table or start a new chapter in your city, please visit www.big-table.com

 

Standup:If you want to see a very different side of Dan than you see here and possibly see Lynze in the crowd, his Burn It All Down standup tour is in full swing! Go to dancummins.tv for ticket links to shows in Bloomington and Madison! This is your last chance to see Dan before he takes a little breather over the summer!

Click Clack Slide - Scared To Death

Click Clack Slide

Released on 04/12/2023

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan found the first story I’m telling today on the web - a story I was pointed to by Curtis Rioux, fan, friend, and incredibly talented professional animator. The urban legend of Click… Clack… Slide… I don’t want to spoil what that represents, but I’m guessing that many of our listeners have heard a version of this story - like Curtis - when they were kids. Can a monster be both a manufactured urban legend AND something you could truly encounter. That’s what we play around with in this story. Then, a man who was horrifying in real life continues to haunt people even after his death: John Wayne Gacy. 

Next, we dip back into true crime and go over a few locations reported to be haunted in the Chicago area, by the ghost of infamous serial killer, John Wayne Gacy.Lynze has two fantastic stories this week! Her first tale will make you think twice about the sounds of footsteps you hear on the stairs. Are they coming from someone or some thing? Then she presents a story with no explanation or resolution. A fan shares their tale of happening upon a room full of blood, but where did it come from? 
 

New Merch:  Really fun tee this week. The "I'm so tired my eyes are bleeding" tee is available now for those of you who know obscure sayings. Head to badmagicmerch.com
 

Bad Magic Productions Monthly Patreon Donation: Amount TBD as we are recording this April 11th Episode at the end March. This months’ charity is Big Table.

A Door That Can't Be Closed - Scared To Death

A Door That Can't Be Closed

Released on 04/05/2023

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

Dan's first of two stories is based on around something we haven't really explored  before. Astral projection. If you could train your mind to actually be able to take your consciousness OUT of your body… leave it behind as a sort of empty vessel - could something else enter in its place? After that, off to Hawaii for a little bite-sized bit of horror. Some paranormal encounters alleged to have taken place at the Honolulu Police Department’s training academy. Lot of horror on those little islands it seems. Then Lynze poses a great question about the paranormal and psilocybin. Can you bring back something from a trip? Lastly, a piece of jewelry seems to be the source of some kind of attachment. 

New Merch:   We heard some of you wanted Hawaiian button up shirts so... we got em!  The first tee is a fun cryptid pattern featuring cute critters from Logan's mind. Looks like there's clam shaped spiders,  bats, vampires, two headed snakes and more! Comes on a really cool Hawaiian style button up collared shirt with a left breast pocket. We also have a really cool Western style cowboy button up, featuring classy flower skulls.  These are hand cut and sewn so please allow a couple extra weeks delivery on these. Head on over to badmagicmerch.com and check these killer button ups out!

Bad Magic Productions Monthly Patreon Donation: Amount TBD as we are recording this April Episode in mid March. This months’ charity is Big Table. Big Table exists to see the lives of those working in the restaurant and hospitality industry transformed by building community and caring for those in crisis, transition, or falling through the cracks. In short, Big Table exists to serve hope to everyone in the industry. In short, this charity is there for our friends working in the service industry when a life altering event occurs and they have to choose between working or not paying bills. As someone who worked in this industry and still has many friends and family working in it too, I really love their mission. To find out more about how to support Big Table or start a new chapter in your city, please visit big-table.com.


Standup:If you want to see a very different side of Dan than you see here and possibly see Lynze in the crowd, his Burn It All Down standup tour is in full swing! Go to dancummins.tv for ticket links to shows in  Cleveland, Columbus, Phoenix, Bloomington and Madison!

The Dover Demon - Scared To Death

The Dover Demon

Released on 03/29/2023

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

The first story this week is brutal. It deals with some real-life heavy topics of child and spousal abuse. A spirit that seems to feed off all of this torment and make it worse seems to be attacking a family. Then the  infamous legend of the Dover Demon.  Cryptid? Alien? Hoax? Did four teenagers really seem some sort of monster in a Massachusetts town just outside of Boston in the Spring of 1977? Then in the back half, Lynze shares a new "thing", a tulpa. She and Dan had never heard of it and the fan submission will make you wonder if the hat man himself is a tulpa. Then, a family tale of encountering some kind of shadowy figure and the remnants of what appears to be some sort of ritual while cleaning a home that is not their own. 
 

New Merch:  As it turns out, you absolutely CAN Coors Light your way into seeing cryptids and monsters. We're being told by many of you that one can  in fact become... Werewolf Drunk.  Check out the cool new tee at badmagicmerch.com featuring a double exposure design of a howling drunk werewolf and the phrase "Let's Get Werewolf Drunk"

Bad Magic Productions Monthly Patreon Donation: Not everyone has access to a bed and pillow and a good nights rest. So this month, we are donating to Sleep In Heavenly peace. Sleep in Heavenly Peace is a group of volunteers who build, assemble and deliver beds to families in need. We will be donating $14,014 to Sleep In Heavenly Peace and adding $1,557 to the scholarship fund. They have chapters all across the US so if you want to get involved or can offer up your skills, please visit shpbeds.org to learn more.

Standup:If you want to see a very different side of Dan than you see here and possibly see Lynze in the crowd, his Burn It All Down standup tour is in full swing! Go to dancummins.tv for ticket links to shows in  Cleveland and Columbus. Then you can find Dan working out his new material in the clubs this spring and fall. Phoenix, Bloomington and Madison this Spring with Fall cities to be announced!
