This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! PART TWOWhat happens when you cross the line between our world and the ones layered beside it? Yousuf Tilly knows — because he lived it. For years, he worked alongside a South African warlock, using white magic to help people facing forces no doctor or counselor could explain. But stepping into that realm means stepping into a reality filled with jinns, spirits, and interdimensional beings that don't play by human rules.Yousuf's experiences weren't fantasy. They were dangerous, unpredictable, and often terrifying. He saw what happens when people make bargains they don't understand. He witnessed the consequences of calling on entities that demand payment. And he learned that once certain forces enter your life, it's not easy — or sometimes even possible — to close the door again.In this episode, we explore the hidden world he encountered: the rituals, the supernatural encounters, the creatures that slip through thin places, and the chilling price attached to power. Some realms should never be disturbed… yet people disturb them every day.Join us as we step into Yousuf's story — a journey through magic, danger, and the entities that watch from just beyond our world.#jinn #paranormal #interdimensional #whitemagic #realghoststories #thegravetalks #demonology #supernatural #darkentities #trueparanormal #magicalencounters #hauntedworldLove real ghost stories?

Dark Magic is one of the most fascinating grey areas in the Harry Potter universe, but what actually separates a simple curse or hex from the ultimate act of evil? From Lord Voldemort pushing the boundaries of the soul to ancient wizards creating literal monsters, the Dark Arts run much deeper than just the three Unforgivable Curses...

Today we bring back Newton Lilavois to speak on the latest issue of one of my favorite books Crescent City Monsters #5 The Rise of Kingsley. Newton describes this as a prequel into the beginnings of the Overlord in the Monster Realm. Kingsley's Clan of the Grunch's as far as hierarchy in this world, Grunch's aren't respected taking up the same space as Vampires, Banshees, and Witches. Kingsley was different, stepping on the frontlines against enemy forces for the protection of the Order and other clans gaining respect. All the while his thirst for power heightened and the power of Dark Magic from strong spiritual people in New Orleans like Jonas stand in his path.Written by Newton LilavoisArtwork by Gian Carlo Bernal

Send us Fan MailWerewolf the Podcast: Belphastus the Sorcerer Revealed | Ancient Evil, Dark Magic & Horror (Episode 273)Belphastus the Unclaimed finally reveals the horrifying truth about what he is — an ancient sorcerer who has survived for thousands of years by feeding on human fear, hatred, misery and despair.In this dark fantasy horror episode of Werewolf the Podcast, Belphastus tells his story in his own words. Long before modern civilisation, he discovered that human suffering could become a source of supernatural power. Fear made him stronger. Hatred gave him energy. But despair was the greatest nourishment of all.Over thousands of years, Belphastus learned that he did not need to create every war, plague or tragedy himself. He only needed to manipulate people. A suggestion placed in the right mind could turn neighbours against one another, transform fear into hatred and turn hatred into violence.But Christianity presented Belphastus with an unexpected enemy: love, forgiveness and hope.His encounter with Bernard of Clairvaux, the medieval Christian saint and Cistercian monk, becomes one of the most important moments in his long existence. Bernard does not respond to Belphastus with hatred or revenge. Instead, he offers compassion and forgiveness — something Belphastus finds far more dangerous.Now hiding in the ancient Brotonne Forest, Belphastus begins rebuilding his supernatural power. With the help of Pier, he prepares an ancient stone circle and uses a forgotten forest spirit to create something monstrous.His plan is simple.Create fear.Turn fear into anger.Turn anger into hatred.Turn hatred into violence.And turn violence into despair.Because despair belongs to Belphastus.Featuring ancient sorcery, dark magic, medieval horror, Christian mythology, forest spirits, supernatural monsters and the continuing mythology of Werewolf the Podcast, this episode reveals the origins and methods of one of the series' most dangerous characters.Belphastus has spent thousands of years manipulating humanity.Now he is ready to begin again.And somewhere in the ancient forest, something is waiting to be unleashed.Werewolf the Podcast: A Serial (Killer) Drama is a dark horror fiction podcast combining supernatural horror, dark fantasy, mythology, historical fiction and very British black humour.Written by Fenrir Thorvaldsen and Gregory Alexander-Sharp.

Things are getting dark this week, as we dive into all things curses: generational curses, cursed objects, theater curses, dark magic and the terrifying possibility that some bad luck might be way more than coincidence. Listener stories reveal families plagued by misfortune, haunted stage disasters, sinister attachments, ghostly protectors, and objects that refuse to stay buried. Stories include: A listener from a long line of witches shares a family curse where nearly every man connected to their bloodline suffers tragic or mysterious deaths. After someone utters the name of the cursed Scottish play, a musical spirals into chaos with wardrobe malfunctions, missed cues, and a near-deadly stage accident. After a violent breakup, a mother and her children experience terrifying paranormal activity, but may have gained justice when a curse placed on them backfires. A grandmother known for house blessings identifies cursed objects, including a chocolate cake and an eerie mask that would not burn. Shamans uncover a curse spanning multiple past lives, with rituals revealing powerful entities that refuse to let go. Watch the video version here. Have ghost stories of your own?

Today I'm reviewing Voidwalker—a dark fantasy packed with dangerous magic, high-stakes adventure, and secrets lurking beyond the edges of reality.Blending action, mystery, and supernatural intrigue, this story explores what happens when immense power comes at an equally immense cost. As the protagonist is drawn deeper into a conflict shaped by ancient forces and hidden truths, the stakes continue to escalate, creating a fast-paced and immersive fantasy experience.With compelling worldbuilding, dark fantasy vibes, and plenty of twists along the way, Voidwalker offers an adventure that will appeal to readers who enjoy magic, monsters, and heroes forced to confront the unknown.

Today I'm reviewing The Executioner Prince by Luden Gray—a dark fantasy filled with cursed princes, brutal secrets, and the devastating cost of loyalty.Thorne Shadowfall should have been royalty. Instead, as the third-born prince of Netherhelm, he has become a weapon. Cursed by his father to bear the burden of a crime he never committed, Thorne is forced to carry out executions in secret, each death tightening the King's control over him. Trapped in a cycle of violence and guilt, he has learned to survive by embracing agony—until the cracks in the kingdom begin to widen.With morally gray characters, gothic atmosphere, political intrigue, and a protagonist who is impossible not to sympathize with, The Executioner Prince delivers a compelling blend of dark fantasy and emotional character work.

A burglar, a car thief, a pickpocket, and a roof full of teenagers all heard the same thing in the dark — a voice that wasn't there, telling them to get out before it was too late.EPISODE BLOG PAGE (includes sources): https://weirddarkness.com/somethingunseenREAD or DOWNLOAD the full transcript of this episode: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/y7mzj4apFEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: Creepy, paranormal encounters sometimes cause people to stop short of committing an action they might regret.

Copyright ©2026, Weird Darkness.Originally aired: December 06, 2021Weird Darkness moves through four shades of the unexplained in this episode: the unseen voices and strangers that talk people out of crimes and catastrophes, the demon that lived under two sisters' bed in Texas, the 1928 witch-killing that gave a Pennsylvania hollow its name, and the still-contested death of Marilyn Monroe.It opens with a run of first-person accounts pulled from Reddit, each describing the moment something unseen stepped in to stop a crime or a catastrophe. A burglar hiding in the closet of an elderly woman's house watches a ghostly old man pat a departing paramedic on the back, then feels breath on the neck and a voice ordering the intruder out. Middle-schoolers creeping through their darkened school are warned off by a voice none of them claims, and they avoid a library that proved to be wired with a silent alarm and motion detectors. In California, a fourteen-year-old abandons a car-theft job a mile from the pickup, spooked by a rising sense of dread, and later learns the vehicle was bait in a police sting that swept up everyone else sent after it. A pickpocket lifts a wallet clean off a stranger, only for the man — blind, sunglasses raised — to calmly ask for it back. Threaded among them are a blown tire that derails a despairing teenager's suicide plan, church doors that lock the instant two thieves reach for them, and a Hobby Lobby shopper whose five stolen pieces of balsa wood seem to trail straight to a table saw and a flesh-eating MRSA infection.From there the episode turns to a listener named Atreada, who shared a room and a bed with her older sister in SunRay, Texas. For a week the bed shook hard enough to slam against the wall and wake the whole house, blamed each night on two children supposedly roughhousing. On the fourth night a hand rose from the gap between bed and wall as an evil laugh filled the room, and on the last night the sisters aimed a flashlight and saw the thing climb out and bolt — an old man in rags, barefoot, with glowing eyes, talon-like fingers, broken teeth, ears jutting at odd angles, and thin transparent strands hanging from an otherwise bald, corpse-like head.Next comes the true story behind Spring Valley County Park in York County, Pennsylvania, a place once called Hex Hollow. In 1928 a Powwow folk-magic practitioner named John Blymire became convinced he was cursed, and a witch called Nellie Noll — the Marietta River Witch — named Nelson Rehmeyer as the source. To break the hex, Blymire needed a lock of Rehmeyer's hair and his copy of The Long Lost Friend, an 1820 spellbook by John George Hohman. On November 26, 1928, Blymire and two accomplices, John Curry and Wilbert Hess, beat Rehmeyer to death in his home and tried to burn it down; the house refused to burn, which locals took as proof of his power. Blymire and Curry drew life sentences and Hess ten to twenty years, and the surviving hex house opened as a museum in 2007 — its story helping to inspire horror novelist Brian Keene and Shane Free's 2015 documentary on the killing.The episode closes with the death of Marilyn Monroe, found nude and lifeless in her Brentwood home in the early hours of August 5, 1962, a telephone in her hand and empty pill bottles on the nightstand. The official verdict was probable suicide by barbiturate overdose, but Sergeant Jack Clemmons, the first officer on the scene, found no glass or water for swallowing some sixty pills, no vomit, and housekeeper Eunice Murray running laundry while the body lay cooling. Thomas Noguchi's autopsy turned up lethal levels of Nembutal and chloral hydrate in her blood and liver, yet not a trace in her stomach. Witnesses placed Attorney General Robert Kennedy at the house that day and again near 10 p.m., tied to rumors of a red diary detailing her affairs with Robert and President John F. Kennedy and referencing a plot against Castro. A competing account, advanced years later by a Court TV investigation, holds that her psychiatrist Ralph Greenson gave her a chloral hydrate enema to wean her off Nembutal, unaware that her internist Hyman Engelberg was still prescribing it, and that the fatal drug interaction — not the Kennedys, and not her own hand — is what killed her.

Today we bring back a favorite as Joseph Illidge returns to us to talk about the Eisner Nominated Anthology: Noir is the New Black that started as a Trade Graphic Novel Anthology in 2020 with 40 Black Creators and 16 stories all based around the genre of Crime Noir.

In this episode, Dr. K is joined by his wife, Kruti (Mrs. K), for a special Call-In style Q&A to celebrate Mental Health May. Together, they discuss the launch of the new Guide to Love, Sex, and Relationships and take a deep dive into community questions regarding attachment styles, the neurobiology of love, and the practical hurdles of modern "adulting". What to expect in this episode: The Yin and Yang of Partnership: Dr. K and Kruti reveal how their vastly different personalities—extroverted vs. introverted and material vs. spiritual—create a balanced relationship through shared accountability and a similar moral compass. The "Adulting" Burden: A look at why modern life feels so overwhelming and why the amount of responsibility carried by individuals today has "ballooned disproportionately" compared to previous generations. Self-Worth and the Playground Shadow: An analysis of how childhood bullying creates a primitive drive for conflict avoidance that can sabotage adult self-esteem until you learn to "hold your ground". "Dark Magic" vs. "Pink Magic": Why using professional "map-hacking" communication skills (dark magic) can actually backfire in romance, and why new daters should instead embrace "pink magic"—the playfulness and boyish joy of being in someone's presence. The Neurobiology of Love: A technical breakdown of the four-part equation for sustainable love involving passion (dopamine), bonding (oxytocin), comfort (serotonin), and sacrifice. Escaping the "Match Made in Hell": How anxious and avoidant partners can navigate gridlocked conflicts by quantifying their needs on a scale of 1 to 10 and recognizing that their tensions are often a "karma" designed for spiritual growth. The Hybrid Build Advantage: Why being a "jack of all trades" is a major competitive advantage in a late-stage capitalist economy and how "wasted time" on diverse skills often leads to the most successful career paths. Action vs. Outcome: Why the quickest way to suffer in life is to focus on outcomes you cannot control rather than the internal actions that you can.

Requiem for the Wretched Dead, a new survival RPG by John Harper set in the Deathlands of the Blades in the Dark universe, which utilizes the Breathless SRD rules. This announcement notably coincided with an outpouring of TTRPG community support that helped fund the creator of Breathless: Frightmare Edition after they had initially worried about an unsatisfying outcome, illustrating the special nature of the TTRPG community. The reprint of The One Ring card for Magic: The Gathering’s crossover with The Hobbit. Veteran artist Donato Giancola accused Wizards of the Coast of reusing and modifying the earlier borderless art by Marta Nael, rather than commissioning a new, original piece from credited artist Dan Frazier. Both Frazier and Wizards of the Coast later confirmed that Nael’s work was unintentionally used as a reference that Frazier painted over. Wizards apologized, acknowledging failures in their internal review process, and promised to update digital versions to credit both artists and ensure Marta Nael is compensated. The Neon Odyssey is a highly successful Kickstarter campaign by Legends of Avantris, which has massively exceeded its funding goal to become a 1,400+ page Space Opera trilogy for Dungeons & Dragons 5.5e. Inspired by retro sci-fi films and video games, the project introduces the Stardust Rhapsody campaign setting across three books: the Outrunner's Handbook, Cosmic Codex, and the Overdrive Expansion. Key features include a new Machinist class, sci-fi class skins for all core 5.5e classes, a dedicated Starfighting System for space combat, over 30 space-faring species, and a 52-Card Cosmic Oracle Deck. Demonic Grimoire serves as the central book for “OSE Month 2026,” a group-collaboration project spearheaded by Exalted Funeral and Necrotic Gnome. The month-long event centers on the theme of “DEMONS” and features a new 176-page book for Old-School Essentials (OSE), a TTRPG inspired by classic games of the 1970s and 1980s. This core book will introduce hordes of new monsters, adventures set in the realms of hell, and fiendish character options, alongside sister projects from 16 other renowned creators in the OSE community. HELLBLASTER: Against the Cyberfiends is a highly funded component of OSE Month by Bloodstar Productions. This Old-School Essentials module for high-level characters blends classic science-fantasy with ’90s occult-industrial aesthetics. The module’s premise is a crashed starship that vomits corruption into a sword-and-sorcery world, forcing adventurers to confront cyborg demons and alien tech. Players must contend with three rival factions—The Doombringers, The Cult of Pleasure, and The Machine Collective—and can seize supercharged weapons, powered armor, and mechanized melee weapons to fight back against the hellish forces. #bladesinthedark #neonodyssey #ose #hellblaster Demonic Grimoire on Backkit: https://www.backerkit.com/c/projects/exalted-funeral/old-school-essentials-demonic-grimoire Hellblaster: Against the Cyberfiend: https://www.backerkit.com/c/projects/bloodstar-productions/hellblaster-against-the-cyberfiends Neon Odyssey https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/legendsofavantris/neon-odyssey Dune Bundles: Physical – https://humblebundleinc.sjv.io/1G1KE9 Digital – https://humblebundleinc.sjv.io/WO4PBA Warmachine on MyMiniFactory: https://mmf.io/upturned Mantic Companion App: https://companion.manticgames.com/ Use our Referral code: MCTXEE Support Us by Shopping on DTRPG (afilliate link): https://www.drivethrurpg.com?affiliate_id=2081746 Matt’s DriveThruRPG Publications: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/browse.php?author=Matthew%20Robinson https://substack.com/@matthewrobinson3 Chris on social media: https://hyvemynd.itch.io/​​ Jeremy's Links: http://www.abusecartoons.com/​​ http://www.rcharvey.com ​​Support Us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/upturnedtable Give us a tip on our livestream: https://streamlabs.com/upturnedtabletop/tip​ Donate or give us a tip on Paypal: https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/2754JZFW2QZU4 Intro song is “Chips” by KokoroNoMe https://kokoronome.bandcamp.com/

Join Eric, Micah, Laura and special guest Rachel as they take a trip down Horcrux memory lane and learn what near-impossible task lies ahead for Harry and company!  Welcome Slug Club member and host of The Menuscript, Rachel! This week we're discussing Half-Blood Prince Chapter 23, "Horcruxes" The Slughorn Files: UNREDACTED What do we make of Slughorn's interest in Tom becoming Minister of Magic? Did Tom learn some of his less-than-wholesome skills from observing Slughorn? What was the inciting event that made Dumbledore so “fierce” about a no-Horcrux curriculum?  And should Horcruxes be a banned topic at Hogwarts? Why was Voldemort willing to risk part of his soul to reopen the Chamber of Secrets? Hallows Happy Dumbledore: with both the Elder Wand and Resurrection Stone in his possession, why didn't Albus ask Harry for his Invisibility Cloak and just dip? When Dumbledore suggests the possibility of a living Horcrux in Nagini, should this not have been MAJOR confirmation that Harry was a Horcrux as well? Why does Harry's capacity for love give him power the Dark Lord knows not? Lynx Line: If Horcruxes were a subscription service, what would their tagline be? Quizzitch: On July 7th, 2007, the “New 7 Wonders of the Modern World” were unveiled by the New 7 Wonders Committee in Switzerland, with input from around the world.

KOSMIC! Novelist, comics writer, and historian Stuart Moore joins the podcast to discuss his new book for the Marvel Age of Comics critical series from Bloomsbury and Marvel, Doctor Strange: A Decade of Dark Magic. As the title promises, Moore's book looks at the first ten years of the character - from its start as a supporting feature in Strange Tales from artist Steve Ditko and writer Stan Lee through multiple reimaginings and adjustments in the hands of writers and artists like Roy Thomas, Gene Colan, and Steve Englehart. In this discussion with bookseller Justin Remer, Moore talks about the dialogue Doctor Strange created with the '60s counterculture, the tumultuous publishing history of the title, and his own prior interactions with the late Ditko and Lee. If you stick around, there's some Toxic Avenger talk near the end as well.  Pick up a copy of the book at Skylight or order the audiobook version from Libro.fm. Hosted and produced by Justin Remer.  Recorded remotely via Zencastr.  Opening music: "Optimism (Instrumental)" by Duck the Piano Wire.  Closing music: "Rule of 3s (Solemnity Child)" by Elastic No-No Band.

In this episode of the Reading Materials Podcast, we step into Cinder House by Freya Marske and unpack what makes this a genuinely enjoyable Cinderella retelling. We talk about how impressively well-developed the characters are for such a short book, and we dig into a bigger conversation about queerness in publishing — where representation feels authentic, and where it risks being used as a marketing hook.Cozy, clever, and more layered than it first appears, this one gave us plenty to discuss.Episode Timepoints:00:00 - Intro00:15 - Brief Life Updates03:00 - An Introduction to Freya Marske05:15 - Spoiler Warning06:00 - The Blurb06:55 - Our Discussion of 'Cinder House'49:20 - Next Time on Reading Materials50:05 - Outro

We welcome back Stuart Moore to discuss his new Marvel Age of Comics book, Doctor Strange: A Decade of Dark Magic. Stuart explores Doctor Strange's first ten years from his 1963 debut through the early '70s, examining how the Steve Ditko/Stan Lee stories' trippy, philosophical approach influenced 1960s counterculture, and how that counterculture in turn shaped the minds of later creators like Steve Englehart and Frank Brunner. We dive into his research on the East Village location of the Sanctum Sanctorum, the succession of writers and artists including Roy Thomas, Gene Colan, Gardner F. Fox, and Marie Severin who expanded on Ditko's mind-bending concepts, and Strange's evolving roles as mystic, super hero, and leader of the Defenders. Take a listen to Stuart's first DBB appearance: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1817176/episodes/15313491.Support the show___________________Check out video versions of this and other episodes on YouTube: youtube.com/dollarbinbandits!If you like this podcast, please rate, review, and subscribe on Apple Podcasts or wherever you found this episode.

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! What happens when you cross the line between our world and the ones layered beside it? Yousuf Tilly knows — because he lived it. For years, he worked alongside a South African warlock, using white magic to help people facing forces no doctor or counselor could explain. But stepping into that realm means stepping into a reality filled with jinns, spirits, and inter-dimensional beings that don't play by human rules. Yousuf's experiences weren't fantasy. They were dangerous, unpredictable, and often terrifying. He saw what happens when people make bargains they don't understand. He witnessed the consequences of calling on entities that demand payment. And he learned that once certain forces enter your life, it's not easy — or sometimes even possible — to close the door again. In this episode, we explore the hidden world he encountered: the rituals, the supernatural encounters, the creatures that slip through thin places, and the chilling price attached to power. Some realms should never be disturbed… yet people disturb them every day. Join us as we step into Yousuf's story — a journey through magic, danger, and the entities that watch from just beyond our world. #jinn #paranormal #interdimensional #whitemagic #realghoststories #thegravetalks #demonology #supernatural #darkentities #trueparanormal #magicalencounters #hauntedworld Love real ghost stories?

Writer and comics editor Stuart Moore talks about his new book, "Doctor Strange: A Decade of Dark Magic", part of Bloomsbury Academic's new Marvel Age of Comics series featuring deep dives into historical eras, origins, and epic storylines from 85 years of Marvel Comics.

What happens when dark magic, ancient myth, and flawed heroes collide? In Demon's Rise by R. E. Sanders, the stakes soar higher than ever in The Jantakai Saga, proving once again that indie epic fantasy can stand toe-to-toe with the giants of the genre.In this spoiler-lite review, Jim dives deep into why Demon's Rise not only delivers gripping storytelling and richly built worlds, but shows just how much Sanders has leveled up as a fantasy author. From the mysterious powers at play to the character growth and ever-expanding lore, this is one saga you'll want to be following.If you've read A Path of Blades, Tann's Last Stand, or Demon's Tear, you already know this world has depth—and Demon's Rise takes it even further.

[This week, I was given another opportunity to collaborate with my brothers from "Nephilim Death Squad," TopLobsta, and David L Corbo (AKA The Raven). Join us as we descend into darkness if only to shine a light on the sinister machinations of this permanent establishment, seemingly insulated from accountability, relentlessly pursuing the deliberate degredation of society at large.]Are modern “Manchurian Candidates” real? Today we sit down with researcher Austin Picard to dissect MKULTRA, Project Monarch, Operation Gladio, and the media machinery that grooms patsies, manufactures outrage, and accelerates the culture war. We trace how trauma, pharma, and frequencies intersect; why “programmed to patsy” often beats “programmed to kill”; and how the Artichoke documents, LIBOR parent connections, and high-impact events fit the pattern. We also unpack the online dox-and-destroy economy, why reaction is the real payload, and how to build psychological armor against next-gen psyops.If you're into deep dives on mind control, false flags, media ritual, and the tech that turns citizens into signals, this one's stacked.

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! Most friendships end quietly—fading memories, less contact, a slow drift into the past. But sometimes, anger refuses to let go. Sometimes, the ending sparks something far darker than silence. That's what happened when two mothers—once close—fell into a bitter feud. Their sons were best friends, inseparable, until the women's relationship soured. Instead of letting the children remain close, both mothers pulled them apart, forbidding further contact. But one mother wanted more than distance. She wanted revenge. What followed was not petty gossip or cold stares—it was a curse. A demonic hex, cast in anger, meant to punish the other mother for her perceived betrayal. But curses don't always follow neat, expected paths. This one bled beyond its intended target, reaching the innocent—the children. For Tony Ramirez, who was just a little boy at the time, the darkness that followed was unexplainable, terrifying, and unforgettable. Nightmares that felt too real, a sense of being watched, unexplained shadows creeping into the corners of his world. It was as if something had attached itself, something meant for his mother but unwilling to stop at her. Now, as an adult, Tony reflects on the curse that marked his childhood. Was it simply anger magnified by superstition? Or did one mother's decision to dabble in the demonic open a doorway that could not easily be shut? Tony Ramirez shares his story: the story of betrayal, dark intentions, and a curse that forever changed the way he views the paranormal.

A magician spins a black top hat to show their audience it's empty. Then, with the wave of a wand and a few magic words, PRESTO: a snow white rabbit pokes its ears over the brim. Compared to sawing a person in half, pulling a rabbit out of a hat is a joyful bit of magic that entertainers have been doing for more than 200 years. But after the applause dies down, one is left wondering: where did the rabbit come from? And where did it go? Today, in honor of the Easter Bunny (who doesn't actually appear in this episode), we're pulling a handful of rabbit stories out of our proverbial hat. But be warned: these are dark tales of disappearing pets, occult eugenicists, and animal sacrifice. The secrets behind some magic tricks are more shocking than others. Featuring Nicole Cardoza, Gwyne Henke, Suzanne Loui, Sally Master, Ana DiMaria, Tanya Singer, and Meg Crane. Produced by Nate Hegyi, Marina Henke, Kate Dario, and Justine Paradis.

Jac Marino Chen shares her gripping journey from the depths of ritual magic and the occult to finding redemption in Jesus Christ. After a traumatic childhood, she was drawn into New Age practices and eventually became fully immersed in a cult—practicing dark rituals and witchcraft.
