Scared To Death

In this sixty-sixth installment of fictional horror written and narrated by Dan Cummins, we return to Delaware Street, where a strange clicking sound coming through the wall of a downtown duplex has led several tenants to discover that the young woman living next door is hiding something far more horrifying than anyone could imagine. But the true nightmare may be her landlord, Bernie, whose desperate attempt to save someone he loves has left a growing trail of victims behind.For Merch and everything else Bad Magic related, head to: https://www.badmagicproductions.com Subscribe to SiriusXM Podcasts+ to listen to new episodes of Scared to Death ad-free and a whole week early.

We head to Puerto Rico this week with Dan! For centuries, soldiers stationed at one isolated watch post in old San Juan were said to vanish without a trace, leaving behind only rumors of something evil lurking in the dark. And when a modern worker begins hearing an old military call echoing through the fortress after sunset, the legend of the Devil's Sentry Box suddenly feels far less ancient. Then, we head to Pennsylvania, where in 2002, a husband and father disappeared near his home, only to be found dead after a massive search with no obvious explanation for what had happened. Then came reports that, at nearly the exact time he vanished, something strange was seen hovering over the ridge where he had last gone. Lynze's first tale feels like its right out of a horror movie from Rob Zombie. Two PO's go on a house visit and get a whole lot more of an adventure than they bargained for. Then, we go to Colombia for a medical work zoom. How would you react to seeing someone who should not be there, while taking a work call? We are donating $13,150 to Big Table. Within in that donation is $2477 which came directly from tips at camp being rerouted to Big Table! We are putting $1,180 into the scholarship fund for 2027!

We begin this week at The Northern Crown: An extravagant Russian hotel that never welcomed a single guest, accumulated decades of deaths, rumors, and claims of a towering shadow figure lurking inside—and one worker says he discovered just how dangerous that presence was shortly before the building was finally demolished. Then... holy cow is this is a weird one. The story of Alyoshenka. When an elderly Russian woman claimed she'd brought home a tiny, bizarre humanoid she found crying in the woods, no one believed her—until other witnesses saw it too, police recovered its mummified body, and an increasingly bizarre mystery began to unfold. We travel back to the US where we visit Cincinnati's Music Hall for a series of creepy events. Wrapping up this weeks show, a young child makes an offering to something that keeps visiting her. Also! Exciting news! We were lucky enough to voice a carnival couple, Hank and his wife, for the episode, “Clown Heads” By Em Starr on THE NO SLEEP PODCAST! Do yourselves a favor and go check it out! Tell us how we did! Be sure to leave David and his team a 5 star review where you consume this media. We hope you enjoy this special collaboration as much we loved doing it!

In this sixty-fifth installment of fictional horror written and narrated by Dan Cummins, we visit units 1214 and 1216 East Delaware street, a duplex in a not-so-great part of town in some city in the southern American midwest. Something is really not right with one of the tenants. And the property manager, Bernie, curiously seems to know a lot more about what's going on than he should.

Dan introduces us to a new thing to be afraid of, the qareen. This entity feels like a suped up doppleganger. We hope you like it! The, a much kinder entity helps a young woman out when she is having a really bad day. Then Lynze also has a helpful ghost called Sarah, who helps keep a baby safe. Lastly, the creepiest version of Winnie The Pooh makes an appearance.  AMAZING new merch in the store this month, head on over to badmagicproductions.com to grab your killer clown t's, dancing moth designs or maybe the same apron that Maggie wore at Peterson's!  Do you want to get all of our episodes a WEEK early, ad free?

AMAZING new merch in the store this month, head on over to badmagicproductions.com to grab your killer clown t's, dancing moth designs or maybe the same apron that Maggie wore at Peterson's! f This week, Dan is coming in hot with a ouija board double feature. First, a group of teenage boys are having the most boring afternoon when thigs take a turn in a different direction. Then, three sisters enjoy many sessions of nothing happening while they play with their ouija board. Until it all goes south and they meet the demon, Zozo. Lynze's first tale is a bit unusual, making us scratch our heads and ask if the paranormal is something "real" or something "learned". What say you? Lastly, a creepy kid invites her babysitter to join her in playing with something no one else can see.  Do you want to get all of our episodes a WEEK early, ad free?

A young couple who move into a beautiful old house in upstate New York,  discover that something inside seems capable of doing far more than simply frightening its occupants, in Dan's first story. As the years pass, unexplained footsteps, violent disturbances, apparitions, accidents, and disturbing changes in the people who live there leave them wondering whether or not the house itself is slowly destroying everyone who stays too long. Then, two professional puppeteers living above their basement theater in Greenwich Village begin sharing their old townhouse with phantom footsteps, the scent of mysterious perfume, and an elegantly dressed stranger who appears and disappears without explanation. Then Hans Holzer arrives with a medium—and what begins as an unusually charming haunting takes a sudden dark turn.Then, Lynze has three stories that are all connected, similarly to Dan's! Ironic! Her tales explore various kinds of spirits in haunted houses. It sure does make you wonder how often we are surrounded by the dead, how often we simply brush things off or miss signals from the other side.  Do you want to get all of our episodes a WEEK early, ad free?

First, three friends explore an abandoned building expecting nothing more than old dust and rusted shelves but what they hear, feel, and see are  hard to explain things. The second tale is... well... odd. Next, a dying husband makes his wife promise something before he passes: never let his treasured clock stop running... or he'll come back and haunt her. Was he joking? Lastly, a group of kids playing flashlight games deep in the woods hears something they know shouldn't exist: a cheerful tune that usually brings kids' joy in the summer. But not at night. And not way out in the woods.Then Lynze has three awesome paranormal horror stories. She begins with one of Dan's biggest fears, clowns. Then, she moves over to creepy condo that has it's fair share of happenings with no real answers.

In this sixty-third installment of fictional horror written and narrated by Dan Cummins, Maggie and Ray have finally learned enough about Peterson's Grocery to understand just how badly they need to get away—but the mysterious Wes Calder believes he knows how to end the nightmare for good. As another experiment approaches, everyone is drawn back toward Peterson's for a night that could determine not only who survives… but whether what's happening beneath St. Jerome can still be stopped.

With Lynze's tales on the back half of the show, we explore a very terrifying camping tale in Arizona and a sweet gift gone wrong.  Do you want to get all of our episodes a WEEK early, ad free?

Dan's  one and only - but much bigger than normal story - we visit an abandoned mining town in Chile's unforgiving Atacama Desert. Locals claim that on rare nights, a bell rings through the ruins and the dead quietly return to finish a day that may have never truly ended. Lynze brings us four tales this week! Peggy The Doll seems to be having long term affects on one listener who didn't properly say good-bye, as the rules go. Then, a midnight snack break is ruined by someone, or something, making its presence known. When a new baby comes home, things get a little bit spoopy on the baby monitor. Lastly, some supernatural spooning?  WE ARE DOING A LIMITED RUN OF 1,500 AUTOGRAPHED BOOKS- SAME AS LAST FEW YEARS!

For decades, motorists traveling near the town of Uniondale have reported picking up a young woman standing alone beside the highway—only to discover she has vanished from their vehicle without explanation. Behind the famous ghost story lies the tragedy of a real woman whose final journey may still be repeating itself along a lonely stretch of road. Generations of South African children have warned one another never to enter a school bathroom alone, because something called Pinky Pinky may be waiting inside. No one agrees on exactly what the creature looks like—but they all agree it's terrifying. Two families experience a variety of spooky moments in a cabin in the mountains only to have their suspicions confirmed. Two fan tales are connected, kind of. A story that was sent in before is told again because another fan who does not know the original story teller, has answers. Or so it may seem.  LAST EVER Wet Hot Bad Magic Summer Camp 2026: Have you heard?! We have some amazing friends joining us at camp!

So many stories from Dan this week!We start with an Air Force officer who returns home from what was supposed to be a surprise visit... only to discover someone may have beat him to the punch. Someone impersonating him over the phone. Is it an alien? Then, after one of America's deadliest train disasters, a grieving family desperately waits for news from a loved one believed to be trapped somewhere in the wreckage. Then their phones start ringing. Lastly, for years, paranormal researcher D. Scott Rogo  dismissed most ghost stories as unreliable folklore—until he began collecting eerily similar accounts from complete strangers who all claimed the impossible. Across decades and continents, ordinary telephones supposedly connected the living with voices that should never have been able to speak, let alone, call again. Lynze's tales this week run the gamut! First up, fan Grace is worried that she might have a ghost trying to get into her house. Or worse.It might be stuck, trying to get out. Then, two young friends witness a cloaked family with various deformities. Are they a cult? Is it paranormal? Lastly, another fan asks us to examine what sleepwalking might be, through the paranormal lens.  Bad Magic Skatepark: Wednesday, July 29th at 2pm, the one and only Bad Magic Skatepark is opening!!

Dan's first of two tales is a really in-depth and unsettling modern encounter claim revolving around a doll. As a little girl, Caroline quickly realized something was wrong with the doll in the blue dress. And the longer she had it, the more wrong it became. Then we head back almost a century to unearth an old, documented paranormal legend.  During one terrifying winter in 1939, something with a scream "like a banshee" sent an entire corner of West Virginia into a frenzy, drawing hunters from across the country into the Appalachian wilderness. Was the mysterious Blue Devil simply the last gray wolf in the state or did the people of Grassy Creek spend months chasing something far stranger? Then Lynze brings us two really big tales this week! Her takes place in a very unassuming place, a conference center. Did the overnight security guard encounter the spirit of a woman or was his mind only playing tricks on him? Lastly, Grant Mansion is the fictitious name this fan gives to the very real and very haunted house she grew up in.  Wednesday, July 29th at 2pm, the one and only Bad Magic Skatepark is opening!! There is going to be a fun ribbon cutting ceremony with food and prizes! The local media will be there too!

In this sixty-first installment of fictional horror written and narrated by Dan Cummins, we return once again to St. Jerome, where Maggie Sambor gets enough evidence to accept that something terrible is truly happening inside of Peterson's Grocery. We also begin to understand why what is happening inside Peterson's is happening, while at the same time,  the mystery around it all deepens.   For Merch and everything else Bad Magic related, head to: https://www.badmagicproductions.com   Subscribe to SiriusXM Podcasts+ to listen to new episodes of Scared to Death ad-free and a whole week early.

Dan has one really big story this week!  We're going to head to Austria's Moosham Castle, a place with an exceptionally dark legacy, even for a castle.  The darkest part of this legacy was forged during one of Europe's most horrifying witch hunts, when 139 innocent people, many of them orphaned and sometimes also disabled children, were tortured and executed in the shadow of a legend known as Wizard Jackl. We start with the history , then we'll look into paranormal claims including a modern encounter. Lynze brings four short stories this week, a nice counterbalance! A story about a college dorm, a possible forest cryptid, a ghost couple and a truly terrible place to run into a shadow person.  LAST EVER Wet Hot Bad Magic Summer Camp 2026: Have you heard?!

We explore Argentina this week with Dan! First, a police officer investigating strange lights on a lonely dirt road who suddenly vanishes without a trace. Eighteen hours later he was found miles away, injured, confused, and claiming that something with glowing red eyes had taken control of his mind. Then, for years before his death, legendary Argentinian musician Luca Prodan nsisted his old San Telmo home was haunted by the sounds of dragging chains, distant screams, and unseen presences lurking in the darkness. Everyone assumed the troubled rock star was imagining things—until years after his death, something was discovered that changed the way many viewed his claims. Next up, did a joke actually summon a helpful ghost, accidentally? Then, we revisit a legend heard here before that popped up under a similar but different name. Are these hatchet killer ghosts connected? Finally, someone or something is in the crawl space. Enough said.  LAST EVER Wet Hot Bad Magic Summer Camp 2026: Have you heard?!

For the first of two tales from Dan, we head south. In the middle of Mexico City sits a massive abandoned hotel that was supposed to become the most luxurious destination in Latin America. Instead, it became the site of an infamous suicide, decades of dark rumors, and a mysterious shrine built for the spirit of a little girl. Then, we'll head to Chesapeake and Virginia Beach where locals have whispered about a stretch of road known for deadly accidents, unsolved murders, ghostly apparitions, and screams heard in the darkness near Stumpy Lake. Is the road haunted by the spirits of some of  those who've died there? The third story this week is about a young girl who is tortured by the laughing, floating head in her closet. Finally, the legend of Charlie Silver is told with a modern encounter!  LAST EVER Wet Hot Bad Magic Summer Camp 2026: Have you heard?! We have some amazing friends joining us at camp!

After spending some time in Germany, Dan is inspired to tell us two creepy tales from there! We begin in the Black Forest and find out what happens when we don't listen to the rules of our wiser elders. Then we arrive at Schlosshotel, a very creepy and very haunted abandoned hotel. Then Lulu Marie brings us haunted house sandwich with a ouija board tale for the meat! It's a fun combo of things and very classic scares!  LAST EVER Wet Hot Bad Magic Summer Camp 2026: Have you heard?! We have some amazing friends joining us at camp!

Dan gives us seven stories this week! Six of them come from Fate Magazine and one comes from Reader's Digest. It's a really fun new mix of tales! On the back half of the show, Lynze gives us three back to back to back spoopy tales! Her first has a full circle moment when a child hood entity shows itself again to a grown adult. Then, a ghostly visitor searches for his friend from the great beyond. Lastly, in an abandon house with no power, no phones lines, no signs of life, someone is calling.

For over six hundred years, scholars, codebreakers, and cryptographers have tried to decipher the mysterious Voynich Manuscript — a real medieval book written in a language no one on Earth has been able to translate. According to one allegedly true account, the real danger may not come from trying to translate the manuscript… but from giving it enough attention for it to try and teach your mind how to read it. Then, the Dyatlov Pass Incident - which remains one of the most unsettling mysteries of the modern era: nine hikers dead under bizarre circumstances, strange lights in the sky, catastrophic injuries, and a tent cut open from within. Avalanche? Military experiment? Something paranormal?  Next up, a strange witch haunts the dream of young boy. If it stopped there, maybe it would simply be a childhood nightmare. However, the nightmare and the witch have returned. What does it mean? Lastly, all we can say about this one is, I need a hug.  Wet Hot Bad Magic Summer Camp 2026: Have you heard?!

In this fifty-eighth installment of fictional horror written and narrated by Dan Cummins, we return to Bluewater Falls as Kate Boyko continues to be haunted by what is looking more and more like the ghost of a woman her great-grandfather murdered, who has been exacting revenge on  pregnant women in her family for nearly a century.      Subscribe to SiriusXM Podcasts+ to listen to new episodes of Scared to Death ad-free and a whole week early.

We begin in Japan, a place full of some of the best horror lore ever! Yotsuya Kaidan is the fictional, two centuries old story of a struggling samurai so desperate to escape the trappings of poverty that he horrifically betrays the one person who truly loves him. A person who refuses to stay gone when he gets rid of her. Then we have Kisaragi Station, a story that many have long believed isn't just a story, but a true account from 2004, when users on a Japanese message board watched in real time as a woman named Hasumi posted frantic updates after waking alone on a train platform that didn't exist on any map. What began as a simple missed stop slowly became one of Japan's most disturbing and enduring paranormal internet legends. Next up, a woman is in need of an outpatient surgery that goes sideways. Did she watch her own death? And resuscitation? A man who drive the same route every day finds a detour one morning on his way to work. Did he perhaps slip into another time line? Lastly, a woman who is no stranger to the spaces we think of being spoopy, the morgue. Something very peculiar about her day at work.  Wet Hot Bad Magic Summer Camp 2026: Have you heard?!

A man living alone who woke up to what sounded like someone trying to break into his home is in for a paranormal encounter. Then,  we head to Vermont, where a quiet morning walk around a fog-covered pond turns into something unsettling.  Then, two tales from the same person, separated by twenty five years makes you wonder if this is a paranormal fire warning.

Dan has some truly incredible tales this week. We  begin in Pennsylvania.  After a tense argument, a man reluctantly agrees to take an evening walk with his lifelong best friend through the woods outside their small town. But the deeper they wander into the darkness, the more uncomfortable things get. Next up, a young couple renting an isolated farmhouse in rural Oregon begin experiencing vivid nightmares after moving into their new home. It becomes apparent to them both that these are far from normal dreams. Then Lynze gives us three tales. Her first is a new thing to be afraid of, a Fetch- an Irish folklore about a doppleganger type thing. Then, a young family leaves their brand new home after a few encounters with a ghost or mimic of their daughters. Lastly, a new dad experiences some kind of something trying to watch over his newborn baby and has evidence to prove it!  Wet Hot Bad Magic Summer Camp 2026: Have you heard?!

In this fifty-seventh installment of fictional horror written and narrated by Dan Cummins, we head to Bluewater Falls. A wonderfully scenic mountain resort town with a dark secret involving the charming lake it surrounds. We meet Kate Boyko as she is pulled into a haunted mystery and tries to determine what has happened to numerous members of her family there for generations.  Subscribe to SiriusXM Podcasts+ to listen to new episodes of Scared to Death ad-free and a whole week early.

Dan begins in 1967, Miami. A souvenir warehouse began witnessing impossible events. Police officers, reporters, and paranormal investigators all saw things they couldn't explain. Many became convinced the disturbances somehow centered around a quiet nineteen-year-old Cuban refugee named Julio Vasquez. After that, we jump ahead nearly a decade and ratchet up the terror. After fleeing Cuba and settling into a cramped Little Havana apartment in the mid-1970s, one Miami family began experiencing strange disturbances that quickly escalated into terror that would soon leave neighbors - and even a local priest - completely horrified. Lynze's stories this week are both really unique. Her first comes with an alert for a tale around DV. Who was warning a woman who escaped her abusive husband? Her last story explores how thin the veil is not only for children but children who have near death experiences.  Wet Hot Bad Magic Summer Camp 2026: Have you heard?!

We begin with a widowed mother in a quiet English spa town wakes up in the middle of the night to find herself no longer alone. She desperately wants to dismiss what happened as nothing more than a nightmare  but that will quickly prove to be impossible to do. Then, a practical, no-nonsense governess is visited by something. Something that will change and appear to be very, very alive. Or at least, be very sentient despite being dead or unrecognizable as far as life as we know it. Then, a tale about a family all experiencing things in a Colombian apartment, unaware of each others encounters. Next up, a call back to an episode from 2020 about Sue Hardy- kind of. Lastly, the ghost of Katie- was it an imaginary friend or something sinister?  Wet Hot Bad Magic Summer Camp 2026: Have you heard?! We have some amazing friends joining us at camp!

We spend all of our time with Dan in Hawaii this week! We head to the Big Island today for five stories.  Dan's first story is about something creepy that happened in Hilo in 1902 and 1903 primarily. It revolves around the ghost of a murdered man. Then his second is really a collection of four tales known to many who have taken ghost tours in Hilo. Lynze's tales amp up as she goes. She begins with a milder story about Stowe Bridge in Vermont. Then, a very very unsettling tale about a small piece of cloth that holds some kind power, some kind of spell. Lastly, whistling. Why is whistling so damn creepy??   Wet Hot Bad Magic Summer Camp 2026: Have you heard?! We have some amazing friends joining us at camp!

Five new tales of horror this week!! The first four are definitely creepy while the last one is a great confirmation tale. We begin with a story that revolves around a young boy getting the biggest basement bedroom in his family's new house. He's excited about it until he's not. Then comes the story of a child seeing something under her bed that terrifies her. Was it just in her imagination? If so, then why decades later, did something else happens that makes her question what she saw as a kid? Next up, some a young man receives a call and a voicemail from his deceased aunt. Then, we hear a tale about the 666 Bridge in Pennsylvania. Lastly, to soften it all up, a quick confirmation tale.  Wet Hot Bad Magic Summer Camp 2026: Have you heard?!

Dan has some older tales for us this week. We start our journey of horror at the Ferry Plantation House where not just one but many ghosts seem to be hanging around, especially one accused witch, Grace. Then we go explore seances with Daniel Dunglas Home- was he a fraudster or were his seances real, you tell us! Lynze has four different ghosty tales this week.

Dan considers a creepy question in his first story this week.  We'll explore the strange phenomenon of some people seeming to have known in advance exactly when they were going to die. Is that something you want to know if you had the chance?  Then, we'll head to Nigeria to look at the disturbing claims that came from a forested area just outside the big city of Ibadan. Are people still being sacrifice to something ? Lynze has two awesome stories! The first explores a local Kentucky legend, Hatchet Harry's. When a group of young kids test their limits of fear, what do they encounter? Lastly, should you let someone who once owned your current home, die in "their" home? Dana certainly thought so.  NEW MERCH ALERT: Pop on over to badmagicproductions.com and grab a new Scared To Death t-shirt, hoodie or hat!  Do you want to get all of our episodes a WEEK early, ad free?

What if some demons aren't repelled by scripture but are attracted to it?  After a minor car accident, a husband in suburban Iowa becomes more devout than ever. At first, it feels like some sort of spiritual awakening. But  what if he opened a door that something stepped through. Then,  we head to a small English parish in 2006, when a devoted family allegedly watched their son grow closer to God after a youth retreat. But when he began reciting scripture backwards, praying throughout the night, and knowing things he shouldn't know, his parents began to wonder if his new devotion wasn't directed towards the right deity. Lynze's first tale might not start off sounding that different. Wait for it. The white woman has plans for a young child. Off to Greece we go to explore a possible curse of the evil eye.  Wet Hot Bad Magic Summer Camp 2026: Have you heard?! We have some amazing friends joining us at camp!

First, we'll go to Malaysia to hear about the Toyol this week.  When cash starts vanishing, a young family assumes stress, forgetfulness or maybe even betrayal are at the root. Then their six-year-old points to the ceiling and whispers about “the little boy” who comes at night and whole new series of possibilities unfolds.  Then we travel to Japan to learn about the Nure-Onna. An American couple follows the sound of cries to find a bundled infant on a lonely riverbank. Or did they? Lynze has three tales this week. Her first is full of sorrow and strange moments around a mirror. Then we revisit The Rake, a creature not regularly covered here. Lastly, a college student needs a place to stay for one week when he finds a good deal. Maybe the deal is too good to be true?  Wet Hot Bad Magic Summer Camp 2026: Have you heard?!

This week, Dan tries a new way of telling stories, which was so fun! He gives us SIX small stories, all of them uniquely creepy, although one might be comforting. A mirror story, a ghost claim, a very disturbing voicemail,  a story problematic door,  another voicemail, and  a final story about a chair that won't stay put. Then Lynze has really different approach to her tales this week with some personal experience and set up about Peggy The Doll, followed by two creepy tales about Peggy.

We start this week in New Zealand where a man goes ghost hunting in the supposedly very haunted former Napier Prison. Did he have an intense encounter with building's most infamous spirit?  Then, Dan shares three smaller tales:  first involves two people hanging out alone in a park at night,  having a very strange, dangerous, and disturbing encounter.  Then we get a creepy baby monitor story. And the lastly,  a series of confusing and disturbing texts between two people freaks us out! Lynze has her usual two tales this week. The first takes us to the middle of nowhere for a possible UFO encounter with lasting affects.

We head to the Arizona desert,  just a few miles outside of Tombstone, where there sits a small adobe ruin with a body count that defies belief. More than twenty men are thought to have been murdered on this small, dusty patch of land - and according to decades of witnesses, some of them have never stopped killing each other. This is the story of Brunckow Cabin. Then we head to South Carolina - to the Embassy Suites Greenville Golf Resort, located next to the Preserve at Verdae Golf Course. A place where one of our longtime researchers, Olivia Lee, had her very own paranormal experience. Then we are told a tale from a fan who isn't sure what was outside their window- creepy hands or more? Lastly, a women goes on a solo trip to connect with her self. While glamping, she does all of the fun things, including paddleboarding. While out on the water, she encounters something that seeps its way into her dreams. Crime Wave At Sea 2.0!
