Scared To Death

"I pestered my mother into talking about what she remembers from that night. She was reluctant, but she did tell me something that I haven’t been able to shake:  That night, the whispers were talking to her specifically. They were telling her to harm her children..."

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

Dan has two traditional-type stories for this week! The first one takes us to South Carolina. A modern encounter with the occult, it seems, in the old haunted Newry Mill. An abandoned old textile mill long used as a teen hangout and drinking spot. Then, we head to the little town of Mitchell, Indiana, to check out a haunted house known as Whispers Estate. We dig into its history to find out how it got this name. Lynze knocks it out of the park this week and really creeps Dan out with a tale about a haunted dresser with evil intentions. Wrapping up the episode is strange encounter with a woman? A spirit? Listen to find out!

New Merch: New merch in the Bad Magic store again this week! A fun cartoon style creature/demon looking thing available in both a tee and sweater, head on over to badmagicmerch.com and check it out!

Standup: Also - if you want to see a very different side of Dan than you see here, his Symphony of Insanity standup tour is back and running. Go to dancummins.tv for ticket links to shows in Missoula, Tempe, Raleigh, Chicago, Salt Lake City, and Davenport this spring.

"The tormenter called the Gillispies’ home phone. When Ron picked up, the caller declared he was observing the Gillispie house . Ron, furious, hung up and raced out the door with the intention of confronting him. Within minutes, he was speeding away in his truck. And he’d brought along a gun. And then a few hours later, Ron Gillispie was found dead behind the wheel."

Dan has two out of the ordinary tales this week. He first shares with us the story of the Circleville Letters. A bizarre occurrence  of random people who are all connected in some way, receiving letters from an anonymous sender. Much like The Watcher, we don't really know what's going on. Is it paranormal or just some creep, trying to wreak havoc? Next up, five young men disappeared in north central California  after attending a college basketball game, and why they went to where some of their remains would later be found is still a mystery. Crazy twist at the end of that story that makes it real, real creepy. Lynze has some great stories for us too! Three sisters all see and hear something in their home. Could it be their imaginations or are they really seeing this? Lastly, a fun and spoopy look at an old parlour game called "Up, Table Up."

Standup: Also - if you want to see a very different side of Dan than you see here, his Symphony of Insanity standup tour is back and running. Go to dancummins.tv for ticket links to shows in  Missoula, Tempe, Raleigh, Chicago, Salt Lake City, and Davenport, Iowa this spring.

“What’s your friend’s name?” she asked her daughter, hoping for something innocuous. Maybe the name of a pet, like Fluffy, or one of her friend’s names from school. “Mr. Gordy,” Heidi replied. “We play outside on the swings and in my room.”

Dan's first story covers the tale of the infamous Wyrick House. Although there isn't much known about the actual location of their home in Georgia, there is enough evidence of a haunting that an entire movie was based around this family's horrifying experience with a couple spirits. Dan's second story follows characters Maria and Akiko, who were simply looking to take a relaxing trip out of town. But their VRBO experience was anything but relaxing. Their woodsy cabin quickly turned into Hell on Earth. For Lynze's half of the episode, we explore some truly terrifying photos sent in by a listener, and then we wrap things up by spending some time in a haunted warehouse. Both stories will send a chill down your spine.

TW! TW! TW! In Lynze's portion of the show, talk of infant death does appear. 

This show is explicit in every way. Take care while listening. 

"I leaned in, feeling her warm breath fluttering over my face. But then just before I closed my eyes, I saw her face change. Her eyes turned from brown to pitch black, and a sinister grin split her face. I jerked back in shock! Her face changed back to the beautiful girl she was before. Did I really see what I thought I had a moment ago?"

Dan has two New England-based horror stories, a couple of areas with haunted origins going back to Puritan times. First, we’ll visit Devil’s Hopyard state park in Connecticut. What may haunt the woods of this park at night? Has it been haunting that area for centuries? These questions lead to a modern encounter story. Next, we’ll head to Portsmouth, New Hampshire’s South Street Cemetery. So many entities seem to inhabit this area’s extremely haunted space and we’ll meet several. Lynze has some creepy tales to share too! She kicks it off with a possible twin doppelgänger.  A woman goes her whole life not knowing she was a twin while also seeing "herself" on and off for many years. Closing out the show is a simple story of someone or something knocking at the window. It's the question the listener poses at the end that did Lynze in.

"As we got out of the car, we all froze. In the light, we saw very tiny handprints, like that of a six-year-old, all over our car."

TW! TW! TW! Examples of suicide, sexual abuse, and murder are present in both of Dan's stories. The first is a shorter  tale that Dan promised to share here after a recent episode of the Timesuck Podcast when he talked about the 1980 New Mexico Prison Riot.  The now closed prison has been supposedly haunted ever since that riot, and today we explore those claims. His  big second story is the tale of Maurice Theriault. A name that probably rings familiar to a lot of horror film fans. Infamous demonologists Ed and Lorraine Warren of the Conjuring universe were part of an exorcism on Maurice in May of 1985. Lynze has her usual two stories but this week, it's a little bit different. She shares encounters from the same fan who has two unrelated experiences about 10 or so years apart. Both stories are scary and interesting in their own ways!

"Soft, dragging footsteps, growing steadily louder. Kyle held his breath. The footsteps grew louder - and he swore something brushed against his arm. It was ice cold. His heart was pounding. And then the footsteps seemed to pass them by...."

Dan's first story is set in America, but the ritual carried out in this modern encounter tale comes from Japan. Tsuji-Ura [Sue-Gee Or-uh].  Better known as The Fortune Game.  I LOVE this story. It’s all about how dangerous it can be to play around with trying to open doors into other worlds. In the second story we visit one of Hong Kong’s most notorious haunted houses, Dragon Lodge, and  looking into its history and the paranormal experiences some of its residents have supposedly had there. Lynze takes us to Cuba, again. The story of a mother's love may haunt her child forever. Wrapping it up, a tale of a possible alien abduction!

"And then he saw something out of the corner of his eye. A man was running through the woods… with a look of fear on his face. He seemed to be definitely running away from something. Or from someBODY. Joe was about to call out to the man to see if he needed help when his mouth dropped. He saw, just as Vicky had before - that the man had no legs."

Dan has two tales that both involve a haunted place. Both involve numerous people claiming to see or hear the same ghost or ghosts. For the first, shorter story, we’ll head to the UK, down by Portsmouth just North of the Isle of Wight, to explore the ghosts of Hinton Ampner. A story of hauntings that  supposedly occurred back in the 18th century. Then, we are going to look into the crimes of midwest serial killer, Herb Baumeister, who buried numerous victims on his property in Indiana just north of Indianapolis in Carmel. Did his murders trap numerous spirits on Fox Hollow Farm, the beautiful estate where he lived and very, VERY likely murdered? Little true crime/haunted place mashup.  Lynze has two excellent stories and follows in Dan's footsteps with a little warm up and then a big scare. For the appetizer of spoops, she takes us to a college library where something or someone wants to have a few private moments, practicing their music. In her second tale, you best stay until the very end, because it all comes together ever so neatly. A young girl purchases an old vanity and within one day, she begins to see someone in the mirror. But whom?
 

New Merch: Got some new, VERY cool merch in the bad magic store this week. Our very own STD cryptid! You gotta look at this thing to take it all in. A flower for a head. Giant wings and talons. A giant tail? Most importantly - it just looks awesome. Very different look than other designs. Cool art on wearable fabric instead of in a frame. badmagicmerch.com

"Now my mother stopped convulsing and sat up and got face to face with my grandmother. But her face did not look like it should have. And she spoke in Camila’s voice. She screamed in Spanish, “I’ll take EVERYONE FROM YOU, WITCH!” 

Dan's first story is not one that will jump right out and terrify you but it sure is bizarre and creepy. The Lawson House saw much tragedy around it over the years, literally. A fatal train crash and a series of fires that did not involve the house itself but perhaps came to be the place the lost souls took up residence. One day, a bizarre collection of mannequins arrived on the porch of the Lawson house, with out explanation. Where did they come from? Who was dressing them? Propping them up? Adjusting the poses? No one ever took credit for it and then one day, it just stopped. Weird. Then in story two, Dan takes us to South America to Argentina to explore a possible family haunting, foul play and multiple deaths. A family divide, a disagreement goes next level when one family member not only (possibly) kills one family member but also comes for others after her own death. It's a wild ride and will have you wondering if you should be making offerings to the saint of death. 

Lynze has 3 tales this week, so fun! She starts off with the most skeptical family, a family of non-believers who eventually all see the same inhuman woman in their dreams. Who is she and what is she doing there is beyond anyone's knowledge but this family works together to attempt to banish her for good. Then, off to Ohio for a haunted bar tale. A little palette cleanser of a story, not super scary but definitely makes you wonder. And then lastly, a pair of teens harass a neighbor who is possibly a witch. Did they take it too far when they cussed her out? Does she want revenge?

New Merch:A new vintage halloween decoration inspired tee in the bad magic store this week. A Grim Reaper tee! Almost reminds me of an old WWF wrestling tee. Check it out and grab one at badmagicmerch.com The best horror merch!

"He began growling, a deep, rumbling, angry sound. .. After a long moment, I realized that these were not my husband’s eyes at all. They were the darker, glistening, furious eyes of another species.”

Dan kicks off this weeks episode with his standard two. One long one, one short one today. And neither is a ghost story, actually. The first is about a man from England, Bill Ramsey, known in paranormal circles as “the Southend Werewolf.” Dan shares the very strange story of how he arrived at that moniker. The second story is about a mysterious disappearance, known as The Kinross Incident. We haven’t heard one of those in awhile and we all know how they panic Lynze!  What happened to a US fighter jet and the two men inside it over Lake Superior back on November 23rd, 1953?

Lynze has two of the best, scariest fan tales! As all kids do, some children are having a great time playing a game of hide-and-seek. It's all fun and games until they have an unexpected person join their game. We are all afraid of the basement and with this story, it becomes more clear why! Then off to Columbia where a police officer takes home a little something. A police officer working during the reign of Pablo Escobar sees more than his fair share of horrible things. What he never planned on was bringing one of those awful things home with him.

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."

"They’d only made it a few paces when Louise’s boot snapped loudly on a twig. She winced and froze. “I hear you,” The woman sang in a high pitched voice. “Keep walking,” Nathaniel whispered. They made it a few more paces, when Louise heard the distinct sound of a third person’s footsteps, directly behind her. Louise felt a hand reach out and firmly grip the back of her arm."

Dan starts with  his two stories, like normal, but they’re a bit bigger than usual. They both take place outside and are both  classic ghost stories. The first comes from England -  Wychwood Forest - and the ghost of Lady Amy Dudley. Does the spirit of a woman who died long ago still roam the forest, searching for the man who may have had her killed? And can she kill? The next story takes us to Southern Oregon - to an old cemetery in Cottage Grove - a town Lynze and Dan once drove right on by when moving from Santa Monica to Couer d’Alene. Did a young couple confront a ghost who still wants to guard his land?

The second half of the show, Lynze brings us a story of a person who tells their tale of surviving an exorcism. So often on this show, there are questions about exorcisms and what might happen afterwards. Just last week, Dan told the tale of a woman who died soon after her exorcism. But not this guy. He lives to tell us all about it!  Her second tale is beyond creepy. A young couple moves into an apartment, meet all of their neighbors- except one. On a seemingly regular night, both people see two different people occupying the neighboring apartment. Are either of them real? 

New Merch:
Brand new Tales Of The Dead Tee in the bad magic store now. A fun yet dark & retro poster style graphic featuring Lynze, Me and some uninvited guests. If only these studio walls could tell us what they've seen.
