"Then he heard Wei’s scream get cut off abruptly and then he heard a quick succession of thumping… like a body falling down the stairs… or being dragged. And then a moment later..." In story one this week, we go to Beijing! A beautiful and ominous, ivy covered French baroque style mansion sits in a complex with another mansion inside an impressive courtyard in the Dongcheng District of Beijing. Originally built by the American Catholic Church in 1910 and then used from 1930 until 1949 as a Chinese language school to train foreign missionaries, the house then began a long, long period of sitting unoccupied, surrounded by stories of the vengeful ghost of a scorned woman haunting the grounds And now, to Iceland! Hurrá is a popular bar/nightclub in Reykjavik, Iceland. Hurrá doesn’t just make the lists of the best pubs in Reykjavik, it also makes the lists of the “most haunted” spots in all of Iceland. Local lore claims that a young sailor was murdered on the shore where the bar now sits, many centuries ago, and his spirit never seems to have moved from the place where he died. Story three considers the idea that being in touch with the other side might be something passed from one generation to the next when a red bouncing ball appears to multiple in one family. Story four has us encountering a house full of paranormal activity that seems to be coming from a gnome.

"My grandpa was almost shouting now. 'Where was she standing!?! When did this happen!?! What did you do!?! Did she see you???'" A quote from our second story. Today's first tale is the story of Bavaria's Wolfsegg Castle. Who is the White Lady and what does she want? the second story is the Japanese urban legend of "the Eight Foot Tall Woman." "Po...po...po..." You'll know what that quote means after you listen. So creepy! Lynze finishes things off with two super creepy listener-submitted tales.

"The mist now surrounded both men, shrouding them in a haze. Slowly, the man reached out, gripping Cesar's hand tightly in his own. Cesar let out a sigh of relief. Dan kicks off the show with a classic tale most of you will know. The Hull House! This is the inspiration for Rosemary's Baby, a horror movie classic! Then story number two of this Halloween themed episode, Dan takes us to Columbia to visit the haunted falls of Tequendama. Back in the states, Lynze brings us to Colorado for the story of a very bizarre and possibly haunted silo. Enjoy all of the twists and turns of this one, literally.

"Recognizing that something abnormal was happening, Steven grabbed his tablet and began filming his wife. She then shifted into a staccato whisper. Dan's stories this week are top notch! A really big, scary episode! We start off in Germany for the tale of the Weiße Frauen, AKA, The White Woman of Bavaria! She is rather sneaky and will have you looking over your shoulder. After that, Dan tells a tale so haunting that Lynze actually started to cry during the episode. Louisa Muskovits is a woman living in Tacoma in 2018 who was, or possibly still is, being oppressed OR possessed by an evil spirit. This tale will shake you to the core. In Lynze's half of the show, we explore a possibly haunted English countryside in. The story may not make you jump out of your skin but it sure will make you think twice about the sound of footsteps. For story two, she takes us to Montana, to explore the possibility of something haunting the woods around an old homestead. Thank you for continuing to send in your stories, Creeps and Peepers!

“Something out here is trying to kill us. It wants us to swerve off the road and crash - it’s TRYING to get me to swerve off the road and crash." Dan has two fantastic tales this week but Lynze's stories seem to be the one's that really give the chills this week. Dan tells the story of a tired, over worked cab driver in Vera Cruz. At the end of his shift, all he wants to do is go home and go to bed. A beautiful woman begs for a ride home and he is so captivated that he drives her home. When he returns the next day to take her on a date, he is shocked to learn that she has been dead for many, many years. Continuing with the theme of seeing weird things while driving, Dan takes us to Scotland to visit one of the most haunted roads. Two brothers encounter so many bizarre things, so many spirits that it would seem impossible to not be real. Lynze, unintentionally, starts off her half of the show with another tale of seeing bizarre and scary things while driving at night, her first tale is a 2 for 1 special about the Smiling Man. While driving through their small town, the see the Smiling Man not once, but twice. Wrapping up the show is an insane story about a shape shifting doppelgänger. It's a long story that bobs and weaves. Pay close attention and enjoy your nightmares, creeps and peepers. Bad Magic Third Annual Giving Tree Info: This year marks the 3rd annual Bad Magic Giving Tree! Over the last 3 years, we have taken what would be the monthly donation for a charity and kept it in our Bad Magic family.The first year, we only had the donation money.Then last year, the fans wanted to help. Dan and I offered to match the total amount donated, which was maybe a bit insane, as the fans donated over $18,000. Lynze and I also donated more than $18,000, plus the $11,000 from Timesuck’s Patreon and we had over $47,000 to spend! How will we choose who we help? That’s the hardest part. But here is what seems to be the best way to handle it:We believe that every kid deserves a happy holidays - Christmas, Hanukkah or otherwise. And we know the pandemic has made it harder than ever to give kids a nice holiday for many families. The requirements for to get some presents for the family this year are quite simple. We ask that you be honest. And we ask that only those with kids reach out. We are happy to keep your names anonymous from the community and it is entirely your choice if you want to post about your gifts. Of course, we cannot accommodate everyone but we will do our best to help as many people as we can. We cannot pay your cell phone bill or your utility bill but we can send things you might need like diapers and socks and some things your kiddos might want, like new toys.If you and your family are need of help this holiday season, please email us at givingtree@badmagicproductions.com .We will gather all of the names, literally put them in a hat and pick at random. We don’t think it’s fair for us to choose who should be on the receiving end of this gift. We are accepting nominations from now until TODAY, NOVEMBER 16TH. At that time, the names will be entered into the Giving Tree “hat” and we will notify ONLY the recipients ASAP to explain how they will receive their donations. We will be sharing updates as we have them, on how much money we have and how many families we think we can help!

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. Dan has some fun in store this week! One tale is a little more traditional, and packed with a lot of good scares, and one that is very, VERY strange. The first is the story of Lake Morena Campground, in Campo, California. An area of the outdoors that has been rumored to be haunted for decades. I’ll share some lore and an intense modern encounter story. The second story is the sorcerers of Chiloé . In 1880, on an island off the coast of Chile, several residents were convicted of belonging to a secret society of warlocks using black magic to intimidate and in some cases, even murder. The trial uncovered some very, VERY strange local lore involving monsters, wizard duels, and ghost ship, and more. Lynze and her fan tales take us back to The Crescent Hotel with an odd tale of exploring what lingers there. Then in her last story, her fan story is surrounded in grief and sadness but who said the spoops couldn't also be sad.

| 09 Oct 2019 | The Beast | 01:04:14 | |
"He awoke in the middle of the night to what he described as 'a man with big black eyes, a thin face with animal features and jagged teeth, pointed ears, horns, and hoofs' standing above him..." A quote from today's second tale - the "Devil Made Me Do It" demonic possession of both David Glatzel and Arne Johnson in 1981 that ended in another man's murder. Our first tale is "The Northfleet Horror," a story of an incredible amount of malevolent poltergeist activity that caused three separate families to move out of a building in Northfleet, England in 1962. Did either tale terrify you? Do you have a scary story of your own to share with us?

| 12 Jul 2023 | I Hope It Comes For You Too | 01:22:30 | |
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. New Merch: It's time for BOOK NUMBER FOUR!!! Annabelles, you can get your autographed book before anyone else with your secret password, when you PRE ORDER on FRIDAY, JULY 21ST AT 12 NOON PACIFIC TIME.

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.

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. 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.

| 29 Mar 2023 | The Dover Demon | 01:09:47 | |
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.

| 03 Nov 2021 | Montana Nightmare | 01:35:52 | |
"You don’t want to be with me,” Kris replied, her voice gravely and low. Laurie realized that there was still laughter— a different, high-pitched laughter, at the same time as Kris was speaking. “You want to be with them. You hate me.” Dan brings it this week with two incredible stories! The first story is a tale of a couple who decide that, due to the pandemic, they are going to move out of their busy city and out to the mountains of Montana. It all sounds so sweet, almost dream like! The dream of making an old house their new home quickly goes sideways when a room of dolls is discovered. From the moment the dolls are found, everything changes. A possession in the Philippines is Dan's second story. It's a sad story, the story of a young girl living a hard life. Her hard life grows harder when she is incarcerated and then possessed. The ending of this story though, is a real head scratcher. Lynze admits that this weeks stories are a bit less spoopy than usual, she's starting to crack up a little bit. Her first story will take us to the World's Fair in St. Louis in 1904 where an abandoned baby goes on to lead a very interesting life and is possibly still quite interesting in death. Then, a chance encounter with the beast of Bray Rd. Two friends set out to cruise around and enjoy a few beers. When one of them needs to answer natures call, a horrific scene unfolds. Then, to end the show, a protective Grandpa makes a return visit to make sure his granddaughter remains safe. New Merch: Something special in the Bad Magic Merch store this week, an Annabelle exclusive collection. The Scared to Death gym time collection. Go workout while getting scared! So much fun stuff! A duffel bag, shirt, notebook, clipboard, water bottle, sticker and even an after gym towel. Go check it out for yourself at Bad Magic Merch!

| 22 May 2024 | A Night At The Clown Motel | 01:18:42 | |
Dan gives us two incredible tales this week. His first brings to life one of Dan's biggest fears: Clowns. Could you handle a night in a haunted, clown themed motel? Then, we are off to Washington DC for a throwback sighting of a dueling ghost. Then, Lynze wonder if this podcast the problem for one home that seems to be experiencing some kind of haunting? Did we do this?! Then, for Lynze's final story, a person has a scary moment while housesitting. Patreon Monthly Donation: This month we have landed on an animal non-profit! We love to spread the support around! Fan Liz Swift volunteers extensively with The Love Pit, putting them on our radar. The mission of The Love Pit is to save dogs that are at risk of euthanasia, have severe medical needs or who need rescuing, rehab, training and so on.

"Take my hand, Kira. You don’t want to make me mad do you? I’ve waited too long already” “Please,” Kira whispered, frozen in place, “you’re scaring me.” Dan knocks it out of the park with not one but two amazingly haunting tales. He begins with the tale of the man for Taured. This story explores the concepts of the multiverse, an idea explored by many people. Could it be possible that our lives as we know them are only iteration of our lives? What would you do if everything you knew to be true, to be fact, was taken away from you? It's such a bizarre concept to dig into a new topic for some big creep factor on Scared To Death. It's Dan's second story that throws Lynze into a tizzy. Have you ever been in an amusement park and felt yourself overcome with fear of being lost? Or worse, being kidnapped? This story has so many layers of scares, there is no way you listen to it and get a good nights rest. Lynze brings three stories this week for a smattering of shadow people tales. Which of the three is the most horrifying? Probably the first tale. The story might be short and sweet but the photograph as the end is haunting. Story two and three don't necessarily pack in a ton of spoops but they will make you question what shadow people are, why they might be here and how their world works. Thank you for continuing to send in your stories, Creeps and Peepers! Bad Magic Productions Monthly Patreon Donation: We are trying something new this month!

"Opening my eyes, I saw the same man, this time wearing a strange grin. His teeth were white enough to see in the dark... I started shaking." A quote from today's first story. Our first tale - a collection of supposed sightings - is about a creature known as “The Grinning Man.” What is it and what does it want? Our second story is about an entity known mostly as “The Elemental.” Some believe it haunts the grounds of Ireland’s “Leap Castle”, and may be tied somehow to this old castle’s very bloody history.

| 27 Apr 2022 | Slaughterhouse Canyon | 01:32:17 | |
SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING Dan's first is a VERY creepy true crime/paranormal combo. Little warning for those who listen with their kids. Gonna be talking about some of the crimes of one of America’s most infamous serial killers - Ted Bundy. He raped, tortured, killed, and terrorized in real life. That we know for sure. Does his spirit continue to instill fear in the living from the afterlife? Then Dan takes us to just outside of Kingman, Arizona to explore the legend of Slaughterhouse Canyon. Did a horrible tragedy occurring there well over a century ago lead to the canyon becoming intensely haunted? Lynze has two very interesting tales to share this week. Her first story examines a possible on-going and building haunting at Mac Dill Airforce Base. A couple has been experiencing a few things here and there but it all seemed harmless. Recently, a dark figure was spotted. Is this getting worse? Then we visit a young girl with an imaginary friend, or so it seems to be her imagination from the outside, looking in. In her reality, she is playing with a very real boy. So which is it? Bad Magic Productions Monthly Patreon Donation: This month our donation will be going to Lifting Hands International who provide aid to refugees both at home and abroad, no politics, simply humanitarian.They have been boots on the ground in Ukraine, providing meals and so much more to those in need.

| 23 Sep 2020 | The Black Door | 01:14:04 | |
"Chase began to walk down the hallway. His legs were heavy. He was afraid of what was behind the last door. The black door..." A quote from today's second of two opening tales! Had a great time recording the first episode of the second year of the show. We start with the mysterious disappearances of Charlie Ashmore and Ambrose Bierce. Then, we explore the dark side of hypnosis. What if you were hypnotized by someone who did not have your best interests in mind? A strange, unnerving hypnosis-related tale awaits you. Lynze closes out the show by sharing another three listener-submitted encounters with the unknown. Thank you for continuing to send in your stories, Creeps and Peepers!

And then, we travel further East to Russia, to discuss an alleged very intense haunting. A little known Russian author seems to have been haunted, both literally and figuratively, by a terrible thing he did. Lynze brings us two tales this week as well! Her first is a little bit funny but will leave you with questions. Then, in her second story, we explore a new creature:Hoof Lady.

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.

"Carolyn woke up with a start to see a very tall woman in an old gray dress with her head hanging off to the side. This woman was hovering above Carolyn." A quote from today's second tale. Our first story comes from Hawaii. A disturbing 3 A.M. encounter with a woman-like entity that you will not want to remember when you're driving anywhere alone at night. Our second story is the allegedly true haunting that inspired The Conjuring. And then Lynze tells what might be our scariest fan submission true horror tale yet.

| 28 Feb 2024 | Lake Labynkyr Devil | 01:17:36 | |
Dan kicks off the show with a strange tale from Russia. A water dwelling, creepy creature that no one seems to know what it is. We join him at Lake Labynkyr. Is it just folklore? Or are some kind of leftover dinosaurs or something else living in this lake? Real-life sea serpents? Then, we go back to Wildwood, Missouri’s Zombie Road. While we once shared stories from Zombie Road several years ago - today’s encounters are all new. Or at least, new for us to share. Lynze has a Peeper friendly tale that is rather interesting and then wraps up February with a tale in Michigan about loosing time in the wilderness.

In this thirtieth installment of fictional horror written and narrated by Dan Cummins.... we head to the tropical jungle of Vietnam's Annamese mountains. On a dark, rainy night in January of 1968, PsyWar Detachment Six - a six-man team and part of the US military’s shadowy MACV-SOG Command - was conducting black operations meant to terrify and break the spirits of the Viet Cong. But in the end, no one will be scared more than the soldiers themselves... This episode was scored by Logan Keith.

"The feeling of being watched returned. It wasn’t an unusual feeling to get, out in a country road. Animals were often watching from the bushes, deer or sometimes even mountain cats… but this was different. Happy Thanksgiving, Creeps and Peepers! Much thanks for all of our fans, Robert's and Annabelle's! On today's show, Dan takes us all to one of the strangest places we have ever gone on Scared to Death, The Island of the Dolls. Why in the world would a man just up and leave him family to live, alone and secluded, on an island that he then COVERS in dolls? After years of living on the island, why does this man turn up dead? What have others discovered when visiting The Island of the Dolls? Are the dolls alive? Possessed? Is it all in their imaginations? From Mexico City, Dan takes us to Colorado. More specifically, we are going to Riverdale Road. This road is know by many to be extremely haunted. Listen to Dan share a tale of three credible witnesses who are lured in by the spirit of women with a decaying face, a woman who tries to burn them alive. Lynze pulls us back to more traditional stories. She also starts in Mexico and shares a long standing family story from a fan. Carrying on the theme of family stories, Lynze shares a tale from Donna, Dan's little sister, and her creepy kids. In both stories, we are left to wonder if kids are more prone to see ghosts and if so, why? Thank you for continuing to send in your stories, Creeps and Peepers!

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: Bad Magic Productions Monthly Patreon Donation: Morry’s Camp, also known as Project Morry.

Then, we head to one of America’s oldest city, St Augustine, Florida, to share legends and encounters that accompany it’s supposedly haunted lighthouse. Third, the tale of Mrs. Rigby, a heart warming ghost who loves to make herself known by whistling. Lastly, an archeologist exploring an abandoned root cellar in Texas is in for a real surprise!

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. Dan's first story comes from South Korea. He shares the legend of their “egg ghosts.” Sound harmless but it's definitely NOT harmless. Then he will share a smaller story that comes from Salem, Massachusetts - lore and a modern encounter centered around the reportedly haunted and very old for America House of Seven Gables.

| 07 Jun 2023 | The Sunway's Revenge | 01:13:54 | |
SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. Dan's first story is mostly set in a hotel located somewhere we aren't sure. Whoever posted this tale never gave an exact location and there are several hotels around the country that have had the name “Sunway Hotel.” It’s a nice twist on the creepy haunted hotel story. The next story is about a mythical creature from Mayan mythology - the Alux, a creepy little creature some people still believe in - like the current President of Mexico. Lynze has three stories, each on the shorter side, which makes them pack a fast paced punch. Her first tale explores ghosts in the graveyard, then she guides us to a hostel for a spoopy tale and then she rounds out the episode with a strange story that is hard to explain without giving it away! New Merch: Bad Magic Productions Monthly Patreon Donation: Over the years, we have tried to donate back to our local community here in Coeur D Alene. This month, we have decided that in honor of Pride month, we are going to donate locally to the North Idaho Pride Alliance whose mission is to connect LGBTQIA+ people and allies to various community groups so they may create a more inclusive North Idaho through Networking, Educating and Advocating.

| 07 Aug 2024 | Who Are You? | 01:27:42 | |
Dan has one really big tale that is beyond captivating and unsettling. It's hard to say more without ruining the story. Then, Lynze brings us three stories this week. Her first is a about a possible encounter with a BEK, kind of. Less of a child and more of an adult. Maybe. Then, did a young boy see the infamous Hat Man or was it someone else? Lastly, fearing things that come out from under our bed is a classic horror trope. But what if you DID see something under your bed??!! BOOK #5: We are doing a limited run of 1,500 books this year!

| 26 Jul 2023 | We Hear Them At Night | 01:14:40 | |
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!

Dan dazzles this week with two bizarre mysteries: one that really leaves you scratching your head. A man makes a dinner reservation with WHO?

| 20 Mar 2024 | The Ghosts Of Franklin Castle | 01:05:09 | |
Dan kicks off the show with a real head scratcher. Was a man take by aliens of was he just a man who drank himself into mental illness and then left his family? You be the judge. We go to Cleveland, Ohio for a fun history lesson and then many small stories of the spirits that may still live in Franklin Castle. Then Lynze gives us a different kind of tale that explores Celtic folklore. A young couple is out enjoying a winter hike when they encounter a woman who is just not quite right. Was it a fae? Lastly, we all know imaginary friends can be the makings of a child's mind. But what if they are something more? Summer Camp 2025: The time has come!!!

The first story has SOMETHING to do with dating apps like Tinder. Who are you REALLY meeting up with sometimes?

| 06 Mar 2024 | Thank You For Visiting | 01:22:36 | |
Dan has two fantastic stories this week. The first is about a bunch of sporadic reports to police and media, beginning in the early 1990s, about people claiming to be social workers and attempting to abduct children from their parents. This topic might not SEEM paranormal, but just wait for it. The second tale is set in small town America, posted by someone who has chosen to remain anonymous and it revolves around a haunted laundromat. Lynze Dazzles us with two awesome fan submitted horror stories. The first takes us camping in Florida. What starts as a fun boys weekend in the woods ends with a lifetime fear of being out there. Then, we explore and wonder if being open to spirits in one location of your life makes you susceptible to them in other parts of your life. Summer Camp 2025: The time has come!!!

| 26 Mar 2025 | His Teeth | 01:27:45 | |
Dan starts this week with a very bizarre story. It's hard to even explain but we are off to Finland to review a tale about a sculpture garden. Then we head to Saudi Arabia to explore the lore around Bride of the Red Sea. Lynze really goes for it this week with five stories! They are short and quite varied. Her first two deal with family members sticking around after their deaths in very small, kind but still eery ways. Then, because it's March, she offers us a little Leprechaun tale. Then, we hear a tale of poltergeist activity not surrounding an angsty teen, which feels new. Lastly, a shadow figure that seems to leave behind some lasting effects. March Bad Magic Donation: This month, we are sending $11,800 to The AP. Founded in 1846, The AP continues to provide fact based journalism and remains the the most trusted, the most accurate and the most unbiased news source in all formats of news.

| 06 Jul 2022 | Boy Outside the Window | 01:15:38 | |
SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. Dan has one of the most terrifying stories he has had in a while. Four residents of a memory care clinic die under rather suspicious circumstances in close proximity to one another and all after seeing a little boy with black eyes outside their window. Then in his second story, we go with Dan as he explores the haunted tales of the rooms at the Battery Carriage House Inn. Lynze has one big tale this week. It all seems to start with a disgruntled family member who may have placed a curse upon another family member. The sighting of the hat man would be the first confirmation that more than one family member is seeing things they had not seen before. The plot thickens from there! New Merch: New Undead Tee hitting the Bad Magic store this week. Cool looking zombie/mummy creature on a black tee. Grab yours now at badmagicmerch.com! Bad Magic Productions Monthly Patreon Donation: This month, we wanted to donate to the victims and their families of the recent mass shootings in Buffalo and Uvlade. That said, we knew it would be a challenge to pick one of the other. We decided to donate to the National Compassion fund, whose mission is to give funds to the victims of mass casualty crimes, such as mass shootings and terrorist attacks. The truth is, there are so many charities for all of the awful things that happen in the world and we were looking to give money to place that could best use the funds to help as many people as possible. Our donation amount is still TBD, as we record in advance, so in the meantime, if you'd like to donate or gather more information, please visit nationalcompassion.org Standup: Also - if you want to see a very different side of Dan than you see here and possibly see Lynze in the crowd, his Symphony of Insanity standup tour will be back this fall. Go to dancummins.tv for ticket links to shows in Nashville, Palm Beach, Portland and MORE!! Thank you for continuing to send in your stories, Creeps and Peepers!

"He thrashed against whatever was holding him, desperately trying to kick himself free. The woman in blue smiled and he then heard what he knew was her voice inside his head. 'Stay…. stay…'” A quote from our second story. For our first tale today, we explore the Cajun legend of the Cauchemar, a specific, demonic spiritual presence believed by some living in and around certain parts of Louisiana to harm them after it invades their dreams. And for the second story, we head to Georgia for tales to stories revolving around the first haunted body of water we’ve talked about so far here on Scared to Death - Lake Lanier.

A truly intense and terrifying way to contact the other is the basis for Dan's first story this week. He takes us on a journey of three friends who dabble in the occult and find that it's much scarier than they ever thought. Keeping up with the tradition that Dan and Lynze set up last year when Dan told the tale of the Smee, we’ll go back a little further to the Victorian Era of England when ghost stories were extremely popular in the UK, and again, when they were most popular around Christmas. Christmas ’twas the season for horror in the mid and late 19th century for many British Empire nations. Stick around until the end of the story which will leave you wondering who is who?! Lynze mixes it up a bit this week with three tales instead of two. In her first story, we hear the account of a one soldier seeing another soldier in Iraq, in the middle of the night. Or did he? What exactly is out there in the former battlegrounds? In her second, and very quick story, we explore a possible sleep paralysis. As Lynze tells the story, we think it's all of the usual marking of sleep paralysis but then, she revels one final fact that changes it all. Wrapping up the holiday episode, a cautionary tale of things that go bump in your house. What do you do when things go missing, are moved without you noticing? Do you automatically blame a ghost? See what happens when you don't trust your gut when you get the feeling you are being watched. Thank you for continuing to send in your stories, Creeps and Peepers!

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING This first story is insane! Dan found this one in a deep, dark corner of the web. We are off to Georgia for a unique and twisted story of reincarnation. Then in his second story, Dan brings us a true crime/paranormal combo! We are going to explore some paranormal encounters possibly related to Lizzie Borden. Lynze explores the negative energy of a house and what it could lead you to do. Can an evil spirit be haunting you without ever exposing itself? Her last story explores a new topic: automatic writing. A wild, cool and interesting story about how automatic writing works and what happens to someone when they try it.

"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?

"Then, he felt the air around him get heavier and heavier until it no longer felt like air at all. It felt like water. It felt like he was drowning." A quote from today's first tale. Our first story centers on the haunted history of the RMS Queen Mary - supposedly the world's most haunted ship, currently operating as a hotel in Long Beach, California. How many spirits from its days as a transatlantic liner still haunt its labyrinth of cabins, hallways, and various decks? Our second story is all about "La Pascualita," the world's most infamous mannequin. Is the mannequin possessed? Is it the corpse of a long dead bridal shop's daughter? After these two creepy stories, Lynze shares some intense listener tales of encounters with the unknown. Thank you for sending in your stories, Creeps and Peepers!

| 07 Feb 2025 | Nightmare Fuel #25: Ezra & The Dark Watcher | 01:04:46 | |
In this twenty-fifth installment of fictional horror written and narrated by Dan Cummins.... we return to Bodie, California! Twenty-seven years after confronting the Beast of Bodie, former sheriff Ezra Calhoun has a new monster to fight. The Dark Watcher. A strange and ferocious man-like entity appearing on the ridge of one of the hills above town, and butchering locals. This episode was scored by Logan Keith. We recommend listening with headphones to experience the full effect of all the creepy background noises! If you like this episode, please let us know wherever you rate and review podcasts.

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! We are excited to announce that we are doing another Scared to Death Live Show - Haunted Halloween - True Tales of Hallow’s Eve Horror THREE!

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. Dan shares two awesome tales this week. The first is set just outside the little Eastern Oregon city of La Grande. We'll learn about the allegedly haunted Hot Lake Springs Hotel and a unique modern encounter tale from a journal left for guests to write about their stay. And then, we'll learn what the wonderful actress and author Carrie Fisher had to say about the paranormal before she passed away too soon in 2016. Lynze has two incredible stories! Her first explores a family history of a possible curse and then the modern haunted house encounters of some people unrelated to the family. In her last story, get the Kleenex, this one will get you in the feels. A great story of poltergeist activity that leads a mom to some valuable information about her kid. Patreon Monthly Donation: As is our tradition here at Bad Magic, Dan and I are hosting the Bad Magic Giving Tree.

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." | |||
| 28 Aug 2024 | It's Time to Wake Up | 01:17:31 | |
Dan starts with an alleged anonymous modern encounter involving a man hearing a girl’s voice as a child - a voice asking him to wake up, and a voice that keeps asking this for many, many years - well into adulthood. And then finally, something very strange happens that leaves him feeling certain that this voice did not just belong. Then, a tale that is about the mysterious and troubling disappearance of a young man who disappeared in the Idaho wilderness, not far from where Dan grew up, back in 2018. Lynze takes us back to our childhoods with a creepy game of hide and seek. Then she wraps up this episode with an unexplainable story from an EMT. Patreon Monthly Donation: This month, we are donating to the Army of Survivors who’s mission is to bring awareness, accountability, and transparency to sexual violence against athletes at all levels. Accountability for perpetrators and the institutions that enable them; Transparency so athletes do not fear retaliation when reporting abuse, and institutions do not cover it up. Nearly 6 million children and young adults in the United States are survivors of sexual violence through their participation in sports. This translates to nearly 13% of all student-athletes — and likely many more than that — as we know this crime is consistently underreported. The culture of sports today often makes athletes feel like they have to say yes to whatever they are asked to do because otherwise their career, their love of their sport, or their identity within that sport, could be threatened. We empower athletes with compassion, strength, and courage to embrace the fundamental truth that they have a right to safety. We will donate 13,760 to The Army of Survivors. We will put 1,530 into the scholarship fund for next year.

"The face of the woman inched towards her own as if it would soon open its mouth and devour her. Beatrice closed her eyes and began to pray..." A quote from today's first tale - the exploration of the possibility that perhaps some apparitions are not the remnants of the once living, but the psychic projection of the still alive. Was a Cornish woman named Beatrice somehow presented with a vision of an evil encounter that had never happened but would years later? Our second story is the tale of Kentucky's Carl Pruitt, the "Chain Strangler." Urban legend or real revenant? A mixture of both? If a ghost can go bump in the night, or turn off a light, or move items around a room - can it also kill you?

"Philip walked back downstairs and crawled back into his bed. And then he heard someone saying his name again. Chanting it over and over. 'Philip… Philip… Philip…'" A quote from today's second tale. Our first story starts off in Beruit and ends in Washington D.C.... kind of. It takes place over thirty years that includes over ten years of the strangest phone calls I've ever heard of. Who was calling Bashir Kouchacji? Our second story is the basis for the 2009 horror movie, The Haunting in Connecticut. The Snedeker family haunting is one of the craziest poltergeist/possession stories out there. And then Lynze ends the show by sharing two of your tales!

| 12 Feb 2025 | He's In My Phone | 01:15:36 | |
Dan shares a tale around a young man thinking he’s being haunted by something in his phone. It's a sad tale, it's a creepy tale. Then, his second story covers some of the lore that surrounds California’s Lost Lake. What spirits and also creatures might be hiding in and around its water? Lynze shares three fan submissions this week. The first two come from one fan and potentially show what we can access if we are open. Then, in her final story, a very peculiar story that might be an alien story as suggested by the submitter... but maybe not.

Dan has two fun stories this week for you! The first is the story of a convent in Milwaukee that reportedly experienced over a year’s worth of paranormal activity in the mid-19th century. Then we hear the cajun legend of the Feu Follet, a mysterious light from Louisiana folklore described as a mysterious and paranormal “sinister force” that leads people to their deaths. Then Lynze gives us three tales! Her first two surround the hospitality industry and her last story is a head scratcher- is it an attachment, a haunted house or something else?!

| 22 Apr 2020 | The Murder Mansion | 01:10:57 | |
"And then he took his hammer, his wife’s blood dropping from it and leaving a trail, and he walked down the hallway towards his daughter Judy’s room..." A quote from today's second tale. The first is the story of a Florida teacher who in 2012, became convinced that some of her teenage students were possessed by demons, so she took them on a very ill-advised and highly illegal field trip. The second story is that of Los Feliz’s supposedly haunted murder mansion where on the night of December 6th, 1959, in Dr. Harold Perelson struck his wife and daughter with a hammer. Ever since that night, the house has sat empty and many think it is haunted. Lynze also shares some more fantastic listener personal tales of terror.

| 10 May 2023 | The Quiz | 01:18:09 | |
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: 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 is TBD right now as we are recording this in the early weeks of April.

| 10 Aug 2022 | The Hamburger Man | 01:15:59 | |
SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. The first of Dan's stories is a very strange urban legend that someone posting a modern encounter story thinks is all too real. The strange, twisted legend of Kansas’s Hamburger Man. For the second story, we explore the rich paranormal history of Cornwall, England’s Bodmin Moor, focusing mainly on the old Bodmin Jail located at the edge of this large, preserved, mostly undeveloped land expanse of land. Lynze shares two spoopy tales too! Her first one explores the age old concept of making a deal with the devil. It's a bizarre tale and will make you scratch your head, for sure. Finishing out this weeks episode is haunted college campus. We haven't a haunted campus in quite some time, this one is fun!

| 15 Sep 2021 | Witch's Bridge | 01:22:42 | |
"He stared down at himself with the same horrified expression. I knew right away he saw it too. As I opened my mouth to say something, he screamed. His feet fell out from under him, and I screamed too as his head hit the edge of the bridge, as I watched him seemingly get pulled straight down into the river." In Great Falls, Montana, some police officers are among those who believe that one of their jail cells is haunted. The Old Cascade County Jail was built in the early 1900s, directly across the street from the west face of the courthouse. Bob Edwards, a Cascade County Sheriff , claims he saw a strange mist floating through through the old cells on a video monitor. It spooked him. And to this day, he has no explanation for it. According to local legend, she was believed to dabble in witchcraft. Or at least that’s what she was accused of. One night, some scared local townspeople decided to form a vigilante lynch mob, and take what they considered to be justice into their own hands. They decided to kill who they believed to be a heretic. And when they made it to her house that night, they grabbed the poor woman, and they hanged her from a tree directly in front of her her home. According to legend, in her last moments, she cursed the house and the surrounding land and still haunts the area today. Summer Camp should be a fun time to hang out with your friends and enjoy your freedom from your parents. It shouldn't be a place that you and your friends find themselves terrified of what comes in the night. In story one, Lynze walks us through a very bizarre summer camp story. After that, she has two more tales, both about haunted houses. The first house appears to very angry when the new owners begin to renovate. It's a classic haunted tale! The second haunted house comes with a big twist at the end, so stay tuned for the most chilling details!

In the Fall of 2021, Christine Evans claims her family was brutally tormented by an intense amount of disturbing paranormal activity. And the second story is full of roughly the same activity - activity to allegedly have occurred in Fermanagh County, Ireland over a century earlier in the story of the Cooneen Poltergeist. Lynze has two tales, the first of which is really wild! She shares with us a police officers mysterious encounter with a shadow person. Then its off the the swamps of Florida where we hear about a couple of friends shared experience with a creature of the unknown.

| 16 Nov 2022 | A Haunting At Kaimuki House | 01:31:36 | |
SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. Dan jumps off the episode with a giant, weird tale. It's something new and fun to talk about in the world of “what if?” WHAT IF you were being “haunted”… not by a ghost, but by someone living in the same space as you, but living in a different time? Like a parallel dimension that someone also intersects with this dimension historical timeline wise. Someone living in the past, but also, living at the same time you live in. It’s a wild concept. The second story, much more traditionally scary, one of Hawaii’s most haunted homes. The Kaimuki House. Lynze has some fun horror for us this week too!! A Veteran's Home may have more than just the Veteran's living there but who?! Then the most insane, but oh-so-probably true story of one mans alien abduction. New Merch: Bad Magic Productions Monthly Patreon Donation: And now, it’s time to announce our 4th annual Bad Magic Giving Tree! This is our chance to collectively give back to our own community! This is such a cool thing we get to do every year, it fills my heart with such joy! Like all of the previous years, we will be using the December Patreon donation to kick this off. We estimate that to be about $15k. If any fans would like to donate to the cause, as they have in years past, we are, again, only accepting Amazon gift cards, as that is the most effective way for us to shop. And just like the years past, Dan and I will be matching any and all donations y’all make up to $15K. If fully matched, we will have about $45K to work with. Every little bit helps, y’all. Just $5 or $10 adds up really quickly when we all chip in. If you can skip your weekly coffee to help out, I assure it, it really goes a long way. The average donation last year was about $50. If you would like to donate, go to amazon.com and purchase a gift card. When you fill out the box of whom to send this gift card to, simply enter the following email address: givingtree2022@badmagicproductions.com. That’s the first part, the way you can help and give to your fellow creeps and peepers! The next part is for those of you who hav been asking how to be a recipient of the giving tree. This year, we are trying to really streamline the process. It’s going to be really straight forward. Starting Monday November 21st at 12:00 noon PT, we will be accepting applications on our website, badmagicmerch.com. THIS WILL BE THE ONE AND ONLY WAY TO SUBMIT YOUR FAMILY. We have come to the conclusion, that can we help about 50 families this year. We always receive far more requests than that and it’s a really awful process to pick names from a hat. It doesn’t allow people the chance to seek out help in a different capacity if they are not chosen. This year, the first 50 families to apply will receive help. The submission form will be live on our website until we have 50 families or until November 26th, whichever comes first. You can rest assured that if you filled out and submitted the application that you are getting help. No more waiting and wondering. Once 50 families have applied, the application will not allow anyone to fill it out. With this being a new system, we are asking you to be patient. We will receive your application and then reach out to you. We will be shopping and sending out gifts from December 1st thru December 12th. We look forward to bringing our community together once again, to love and support one another. Standup: If you want to see a very different side of Dan than you see here and possibly see Lynze in the crowd, his Symphony of Insanity standup tour will be back this fall.

| 16 Jun 2021 | It Feeds | 01:21:24 | |
"C whirled around, momentarily picking his eyes up from the floor, and he found himself staring straight into the mirror. And directly BEHIND him, he saw a dead man. Our first tale is about The Hammersmith Ghost Murder Case! Starting in November 1803, the British citizens of Hammersmith were worried about the typical concerns of daily life we all still worry about - money, health, taxes, family squabbles, neighborhood crime, etc.They were also worried about something not of this world.They worried that something paranormal was going to attack them like it had allegedly already attacked some of their neighbors. Now, in our second story, we explore the lore of other cultures. Every culture in the world has its own unique spin on the supernatural. Every religion has their own demons - or demonic equivalents - including Hinduism. From what we understand, the Hindu religion teaches and warns about three primary groups of evil entities. First the Bhuts [ boots ] also sometimes called bhutas [boo tuhs]. The Bhuts are supernatural creatures - often called ghosts. Usually they are described as being the sprit of a deceased person, often considered to be perturbed and restless due to some factor that prevents the spirit from moving on.Next there are Pretas [ prey-tuhs ] - eternally hungry, zombie-like entities. They are the wandering, tortured souls of those who were false, corrupted, compulsive, deceitful, jealous or greedy in life.These dark entities wander the earth at all times, generally unable to be seen. Always miserable. Always looking to feed.And then there are the Pishachas [ pee shakas]. The worst of the dark spirits. What happens when one encounters a Pishacha? Closing out the show, we have two tales, both which feel unbelievable. A story of possible alien abduction and a loss of time and as story about how psychics might have more power than we want to believe.

| 13 May 2020 | The Bell Witch | 01:09:24 | |
"A tap-tap-tap would sometimes be heard against a living room window. Something outside that couldn’t be seen out in the dark of the Tennessee wilderness was perhaps now looking in..." A quote from today's second of four stories - the tale of the Bell Witch. This early 19th century Tennessee story about a malicious, spiteful spirit rumored to have antagonized the Bell family and many others around them for several years is one of America's most famous paranormal horror accounts. The first story is an encounter with New Mexico's La Mala Hora - the "Evil Hour" also known as "The Evil One," a spirit you don't want to drive past at a crossroads. And then Lynze shares two interesting accounts that lend far too much credence to the possibility that the things that go bump in the night exist in more than our imaginations.

| 12 May 2021 | Scared To Death | 01:33:09 | |
TW: There are some pretty graphic sexual true crime details in this one if you want to skip it. "But then a week later, Remy fell into another trance. And she started speaking to her husband in that same foreign voice - a voice that was angry this time... And then this voice gave him the names — AND the phone numbers — of four different people Teresita knew who could identify this jewelry as belonging to Teresita. And then the voice, after urging him again to PLEASE contact the authorities - it went away again. His wife snapped out of her trance. " It's a bizarre episode of Scared to Death! Dan has two rather interesting stories that walk the fine line between true crime (which they are, for sure) and paranormal (which they might be, who knows?!). Dan kicks off the show with a very well documented death of Cindy Elizabeth Hack James. It's a topsy turvy twister. Cindy is a women who someone wants dead, but whom, or what, is after her? For SEVEN years, Cindy is harassed, attacked, stalked and eventually killed. But who is the killer? Then, in the second story of the show, Dan is certain he has evidence of the paranormal and after life. When a middle aged woman is found dead in her apartment, with no signs of forced entry and no enemies to speak of, it's just the beginning of the most bizarre murder mystery. Teresita was a popular and well liked woman, so when she turned up dead, the questions began swirling. Police would never have predicted just how they would solve this case. It would appear that Teresita was uninterested in finding eternal rest, until she brought her killer to justice, even from beyond the grave. This singular tale has Lynze somewhat excited for what might exist, beyond this world. Listen in closely and follow the details of this Scared To Death: Unsolved Mysteries episode. Lynze also some very unique and spooky tales for her half of the show. In story one, we are off to Columbia to hear the tale of a son who is deeply concerned for his father and the dark forces that seem to be at play in his life, both in the world and beyond. Is Oscar's Dad in trouble with money, women or the devil? Something bizarre sure is swirling around Oscar's Dad and if he isn't careful, it might also consume Oscar. Then, in story two, Lynze leaves it up to you to decide if this tale is a case of sleep paralysis or if it's something else entirely.

| 08 Jul 2020 | Evil Doppelgängers | 01:14:48 | |
"I whipped around and saw that my mother - my REAL mother - had just walked in the house. When I turned around, the creature at the end of the hall was gone..." A quote from today's second tale. Our first story deals with numerous sightings of a black-eyed girl in the a small wooded area of England known as Cannock Chase, and the terrible true crime backstory that may be behind them. Our second group of stories all deal with doppelgängers. We touch on the mythology of the notion of a dark twin, and then give several historical and one chilling contemporary account of someone encounter an entity that looks exactly like them.

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. Dan kicks off with two big stories today. Heading to Japan for the first one, to visit a Ghost Island. A very unique place. This one had us all twitchy! And then, we stay in Asia but travel all the way to Afghanistan to cover a collection of supposed sightings from some US Marines. Some really INTENSE sightings at a place once known as Observation Post Rock. Lynze presents us with a new horror character we have yet to meet, the pichal peri.

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. Dan had two really fun haunted house types of tales this week. He kicks it off with a haunting at The Moana Surfrider hotel in Waikiki. It would appear that a death that took places many, many years prior has resulted in a female ghost hanging around. When a male visitor stays at the hotel, it would seem she thinks he is someone else. Mistaken identity gone wrong! Then in his second tale, we encounter a new set of Darren's in the Lee Family Haunting. Lynze also has her usual two tales. A clown haunting that spans from childhood to adulthood and possible demonic attachment, but not how you'd think! New Merch: Amazing new Tall Man collection in the store now!

| 21 Apr 2021 | New Orleans Cannibal | 01:17:37 | |
This weeks episode is EXTRA special!! Dan and Lynze recorded on the road, from one of the most haunted cities in America, NEW ORLEANS!! Dan and Lynze love NOLA, which is no secret. This week the pair was on the road and wanted to try out recording an episode while away from their recording studio in Coeur D'Alene, ID. As the world starts to reopen, Dan will be touring again for stand up, so now seemed like the perfect time to test out the traveling recording kit! If you're considering watching this episode on YouTube, note that this entire episode is in complete 360 degrees! With that out of the way, get ready for four stories that all take place in New Orleans! Does is get any spoopier than NOLA themed stories, recorded in NOLA. "Guests began to witness what they would later think was the Chef’s ghost in the dining rooms or near the front door. Sometimes smiling at a guest. A few even claimed he asked them if they’d enjoyed their meal. Dan has a great story to kick off the episode, about one of NOLA's most well known families, The Brennan's. The Brennan's own many restaurants in New Orleans and thus, have a hold on some of the oldest buildings. When one of their top chefs passes away, it would appear he is not quite ready to hang up his chef's hat. In his second story, Dan shares the tale of Louis Congo, a former slave turned executioner, and one man's possible encounter with him. Louis was freed from slavery only to be subjected to a whole different kind of hell. Did Louis enjoy torturing and killing people? Is it possible that his spirit still haunts Jackson Square, awaiting another person to break on the wheel? Lynze also has two very intense New Orleans stories. Taking place very near Jackson Square, a fan submits a story that begins at the Moon Walk. A security guard has the strangest encounter with someone that he can see but more importantly, can small. Is this a vision, a spirit or a homeless person? Stick with the story to find out if whatever it is, has the ability to leave the Moon Walk and follow the security guard to another location. In her second story, we offer a TW about suicide. Lynze shares the story of the NOLA Cannibal. Perhaps you have heard this tale. A story of drug use and mental illness combined with love and the aftermath of Katrina, a man murders and chops up his former lover, cooking and preserving her body. Years later, when two friends visit the scene of the crime, is the spirit of the deceased trying to communicate her story? Tune in to find out! New Merch: Another reminder for the April 22nd Scared to Death LIVE show. AND - just like a live show for your favorite band, we also have limited edition Scared To Death LIVE merch.

| 29 Jul 2020 | The Haunted Villa Montezuma | 00:59:01 | |
"She eventually found herself looking at a set of stairs... down to the basement, she presumed. Then she heard a voice say in her ear, “I wouldn’t go down there, if I were you.” A quote from today's second story. Both of today's tales take place in San Diego, California. The first involves the mysterious death of of Michelle von Emster. Why can't anyone definitively determine how she died? How does one's femur bone end up "whittled?" The next story takes us to San Diego's haunted Villa Montezuma. Did years of séances open a door that has never been closed? And Lynze shares more unsettling listener encounters with the unknown.

| 08 Nov 2023 | The Ghost of Jayuro Road | 01:16:58 | |
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. And then, we get a little Lovecraftian, and explore a mystery that revolves around the possibility of horrible things that may live in the ocean depths. Lynze shares just one story about a probable alien abduction and how this may be happening to one family over many years. 5th annual Bad Magic Giving Tree!

| 03 Aug 2022 | The Succubus In The Mirror | 01:15:06 | |
SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. The first tale Dan has is one that scared Dan and Lynze more than any other story has in awhile. It’s a story about what seems to be a particularly deadly cursed object. It’s a random tale from a random forum - no real documentation with it. The second story shows up all over the place. The lore of the Toronto Tunnel Monster. Does a cryptid - or do multiple cryptids - dwell in the elaborate and massive system of tunnels that lie beneath Toronto? Lynze is back to to her two usual tales, sort of. The first story is actual two from the same person. A young girl seems to be in touch with the other side and two tales, one of astral projection and one of premonitions show examples of the this girls connections to the other side. New Merch: Thanks to everyone who picked up a copy of the Fan Stories Collection Vol 3! No idea how that has gone since we recorded this one quite a bit in advance. Hopefully really well!

"Daddy, the basement monster is standing in the upstairs window...." A quote from today's first tale - the haunting of the LaChance family in the "Screaming House" of Union, Missouri. They would last less than a month in this aggressively haunted house. Our second tale is one man's account of a run-in with two black-eyed children. What are these entities and what do they want from you? We here in the studio found today's tales scarier than last weeks. Will you? Let us know!

| 20 Nov 2024 | What's Your Emergency? | 01:11:22 | |
Dan's first story is weird. We had a hard time tracking it and understanding it so if you have trouble too - don’t worry. We’ll talk afterwards and clear up any confusion. Then, we’ll visit what sure seems to be a powerfully and malevolently haunted former seminary room in Maynooth in County Kildare, Ireland. A haunting that reads like the basis for a really good horror movie. Then, Lynze shares an interesting haunted apartment story where a family lives in two separate apartments in the same building that both seem to be plagued by the same "something". What is it? Where does it stem from? Then, lastly, a creepy mimmic tale. Or is it? This weeks entire show is really weird and does not offer a ton of solutions, making it that much scarier.

| 20 Jan 2021 | The Man With No Face | 01:36:40 | |
"His face was just… blank. He didn’t have a face! How he could he not have a face? I turned around and tried to get away from him. I tried to climb back down and I fell. I could hear him coming after me. He kept letting out these muffled screams.” We are off to Australia, if you believe it's real, for the story of a very famous haunted cave, the Jenolan Caves. Many of us go on tours while we are on vacation. What if you went on a tour and you were the only person who could see an extra tourist, also on the tour? As we listen to Dan share the hauntings of this cave, you will be left to wonder how such a beautiful place could give you such a scare. Keeping in theme with adventures you might go on, Dan attempts to make the woods and hiking a NO-GO for Lynze. In an undisclosed location, there is a "man" with no face, making people disappear. Is he real? Are people disappearing? What kind of control does he have over them that keeps people in the woods for days. Listen in and decided if you still want to spend time in the woods. In Lynze's half of the show, she gives us three stories this week. In the first story, CC tells how a previous episode (69) sends her into a bit of tailspin, reminding her of the horrors of a shadow man or hat man she thought she had dealt with in her younger years. Was it a dream? Her imagination? Or, was he really there? In the second story, Lynze tells us about three cousins who have two back to back experiences. Both instances are bizarre and unnerving. If more than one person experiences something, does that make it more true? Finishing out the episode is a less scary tale but spoopy, none the less. Lynze takes us to Indiana and back in time, where a possible ghost is connected to the infamous H.H. Holmes. Thank you for continuing to send in your stories, Creeps and Peepers!

| 06 Apr 2022 | It Came From Within | 01:21:30 | |
"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!

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. Dan has just one story this week and it is intense. Even if this person’s claims are not true, it’s still a scary story. And if they are true… well… then... Lynze has two awesome stories to share. 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! New Merch: A refresh to our Protection Blanket! Introducing an updated Protection Ritual design. 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 collection features of course a blanket, as well as a wall tapestry, Premium Tee Shirt, and Wall Canvas. 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 is TBD right now as we are recording this in the final weeks of April.

"In the bedroom, another investigator saw what appeared to be tiny pale fingers reach out from the inside of the closet door..." A quote from the second of today's horror tales. Our first story is another Hat Man encounter. A young girl sees the Hat Man in her grandparent's home and finds out years later she wasn't the only one to see him. Our second story is the tale of the infamous Villisca Axe Murders. Eight people were murdered with an axe in a small Iowa town, all in one night, all in the same home. And the murderer was never caught. Now, the house may be haunted with the ghosts of those victims, and perhaps also by something else. Thank you for sending in your stories, Creeps and Peepers!

"Their friend said that if you drove through the tunnel at midnight to the hotel and called out the boy’s name… you might see him in your rear-view mirror, running up behind your car, flailing his disjointed limbs as he tried to catch you. " Dan weaves horror this week, telling us about Japanese traditions of Kimodameshi. The folklore that comes out of Japan is possibly some of the best and most terrifying. In the summer months, they celebrate a season of hauntings. What do two friends get themselves into when they try to complete a test of courage? Then back to the states to famously haunted Biltmore Hotel in Miami. A honeymoon gone sideways when a very strong message is sent to the lovebirds that they aren't welcome. A hotel steeped in history and crazy stories, this haunted hotel story is a classic. Lynze knows Dan and others will be divided on her first story, sharing the tale of a possibly powerful crystal that doesn't seem to be doing anyone any good. Can a spirit or entity attach itself so strongly to an item that the affected person just won't abandon it? Then, a really, really tough story of a haunted house that ends in tragedy. CAUTION! Please be advised that this story is graphic. STREET TEAM: At high noon, pacific time, on Monday, August 16th, the stickers will go live on badmagicmerch.com.

Hello Creeps and Peepers! In this fourth piece of horror fiction written and narrated by Dan Cummins, we meet a strange child's doll, Sam, found by a young boy, Jack, when he and his sister and mother moved into a new home following the death of Jack's father. Sam looks like she comes from another world, and she does, and her world is full of nothing but evil... This episode is scored by Logan Keith.

| 28 Sep 2022 | The Whistler | 01:04:52 | |
Dan has a story about a young boy named Cody and his imaginary “friend” who is NOT friendly and not imaginary. Then a collection of paranormal sightings in Plainfield, Wisconsin, that all revolve around the ghosts of either murderer Ed Gein - his mother, or his victims. Lynze has the most terrifying tale of the week with the folklore of The Whistler. YIKES!
SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. The setting for Dan's first story is a Murder Mystery party. The premiss: since everyone is in costume, what if someone there is someone you don’t know. Someone… not alive. In his second story Dan shares the short tale of man haunted by a few weeks of terrible nights from his childhood. Lynze taps into two fears we can all relate to: dark and lonely rest stops and dark and scary basements! Enjoy! Scared to Death Live Haunted Halloween - True Tales of Hallow’s Eve Horror TWO!: New Merch: A very cool and creepy Scarecrow collection in the store at badmagicmerch.com . These two designs, available in short or long sleeved shirts or in jigsaw puzzle form. The Art Warlock continues to impress. Bad Magic Productions Monthly Patreon Donation: https://www.kidsrockcancer.org/ This month, we are making a yet to be determined donation to Kids Rock Cancer, in St. Louis, in honor of Jeff Burton. Jeff Burton was a long time staple on The Rizzuto Show, a show that has supported Dan and Timesuck and Bad Magic for a long time. Jeff recently passed away after a grueling fight against cancer. Even while Jeff was fighting for his life, he made it a priority to raise money for Kids Rock Cancer. Kids Rock Caner is an innovative program that helps children successfully cope with the unique emotional challenges that accompany a cancer diagnosis. Through the proven healing power of music therapy, Kids Rock Cancer helps children combat feelings of anxiety, depression, uncertainty and helplessness. Jeff was just 55 years old. He is survived by his wife, Juli and their two daughters, Abby and Casey. Standup: If you want to see a very different side of Dan than you see here and possibly see Lynze in the crowd, his Symphony of Insanity standup tour will be back this fall.

| 28 Jul 2021 | The Haunted House of Lunahuaná | 01:19:35 | |
"And then Julian felt the temperature drop and that same cold air on his right ear. And now… something new… a finger touching his back.A faint, white glow surrounded him. Something was behind him. He slowly turned around, tears running down his face, lip trembling, coming face to face with a white, womanly figure." Peru! Oh Peru! We have not travelled to this part of the world yet, making this a whole new area of spoops. A couple of teenage kids get far more than they bargained for when they embark on a night time tour of the haunted house of Lunahuaná! Then for a little twist, Dan tells various tales of people who have worked on horror movies and have seen a whole lot more than they bargained for, when the cameras stopped rolling. Lynze has a life long haunting tale to tell of a woman who has been plagued by the same spirit her whole life. It would seem that this spirit showed up in her childhood and never left. Is it possible to carry the same spirit with you, for all of your days? Robert The Doll is a famously haunted doll. He lives in a museum in Florida. If you choose to visit him, there are strict instructions on how you can interact with him. If you don't follow the rules, something bad might happen to you. Follow along as one fan shares his encounter with Robert The Doll! What We’re Doing for Episode 100: Gonna have a fun drinking game for our 100th episode, so have some alcohol on hand when you listen if you like to drink. Rules will be determined by our Roberts and Annabelles. Gonna be a longer episode than the average episode. More banter than normal. Gonna be - hopefully - a lot of spooks and a lot of fun. Can’t wait to celebrate a hundred episodes of Scared to Death! New Merch: Super fun, new red and black, “Not today, Demon!” tees in the Bad Magic Merch store. Not sure, because we’re recording this in advance , but possibly some Scared to Death volume two books are still left for preorder. Limited amount, so again, when they’re gone they’re gone.

| 28 Jun 2023 | The Tunnels of Sand Hill Road | 01:25:50 | |
SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. Dan shares a scary and sad tale about the Sand Hill Road. The tunnels that run under Las Vegas are full of real, living people who are homeless but what if they are not only battling a hard life? What if there is something else down there with them? Then we visit with the Warren's again. A bizarre poltergeist tale in the 70's in Connecticut. Lynze has her usual two stories for you this week. Randomly themed with back to back tales about little kids, who are both creepy in real life and in the afterlife. 200th Episode Next Week! Quick note that NEXT week is our 200th episode. Whoo hooo!! Thanks for sticking around for 200 straight weeks of Scared to Death. Coming up on our 4 year anniversary. Just like for the 100th episode, we’ll turn the show into a little drinking game if you want to play. The episode will also feature an extra story from me, and some extra banter at the end, similar to our bonus episodes, talking about the fun ride this has truly been.

| 24 Jul 2024 | A Night In Room 636 | 01:03:47 | |
Dan shares two stories. The first one is a big one. We’ll visit the Gunter Hotel in San Antonio, Texas. Did an infamous murder committed there in 1965 lead to the hotel gaining a reputation for being particularly haunted? The history at the top of this tale is awesome! Then, we’ll travel across the pond to Leeds, England and look into a claim that either a monster or someone who was just monstrous moved into a row house right after its tenants moved out in the 1940s, and began harassing the neighbors. Lynze also gives us two tales from opposite sides of the world. Her first story is about a seance gone wrong. But let's be honest: when do they ever go "right"? Then, a very freaky and bizarre tale of a possible alien encounter in Australia! Hang with us this week for a slower paced show. Dan is sick and was battling through to make sure we don't miss a show! Crazy, 255 shows and never missed an episode! Thank you for your support!
