In Nazi-occupied France, German officers repeatedly try to execute a young French woman by hanging — but each time, she returns alive. The woman becomes less a normal person than an allegorical embodiment of France/liberty/resistance: the Nazis can murder bodies, but they cannot kill the spirit they are fighting.Look for this podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, Amazon Music, Pandora, TuneIn Radio, and other podcast apps.

This week, Josh and Drusilla watched the very cozy Burnt Offerings. From wiki: “Burnt Offerings (Italian: Ballata macabra, lit. 'Macabre ballad') is a 1976 supernatural horror film co-written and directed by Dan Curtis and starring Karen Black, Oliver Reed, Bette Davis, and Lee H. Montgomery, with Eileen Heckart, Burgess Meredith and Anthony James in supporting roles. It is based on the 1973 novel by Robert Marasco.[7] The plot follows a family which begins to interpersonally dissolve under supernatural forces in a large estate they have rented for the summer. The film's title derives from the Book of Leviticus, referring to a "sacrifice by fire" and a "gift offered to God."[8]Also discussed: Marilyn Monroe's 100th Birthday, The Silver Book: A Novel by Olivia Laing,  Backrooms (2026), I Love Boosters (2026), Watcher in the Woods (1980), Return from Witch Mountain (1978), Girls Just Wanna Fun (1985), The Midnight Hour (1984), Dark Shadows, Trilogy of Terror, Day of the Locust, Ruben and Ed, Phantasm, The Sentinel, The Legacy, Alliosn's Birthday, and more. NEXT WEEK: Dracula's Daughter (1936)Bloodhaus: https://www.bloodhauspod.com/https://www.instagram.com/bloodhauspod/https://letterboxd.com/bloodhaus/Drusilla Adeline:https://www.sisterhydedesign.com/https://letterboxd.com/sisterhyde/https://www.instagram.com/sister__hyde/Joshua Conkelhttps://www.joshuaconkel.com/https://www.instagram.com/joshua_conkel/https://letterboxd.com/JoshuaConkel/

There is a house in Auburn, California, with a tragic history and a new tenant. Jean Averaud has come from New Orleans with money, with books, with a beautiful mute woman who watches him with eyes full of something between devotion and dread. He has come with a theory about evil — not the Devil, not sin, not the ordinary darkness of human nature, but evil as a cosmic force, a radiation from a black sun somewhere in the depths of space.And he has come with a purpose. In the old Larcom house, with its history of sorrow and disaster, he has found exactly the conditions he needs. His neighbour, a novelist, finds himself drawn into Averaud's orbit. Clark Ashton Smith's The Devotee of Evil is a quiet story. It does not rush. It thinks. And what it thinks about has been troubling philosophers and theologians for two thousand years. The Devotee of Evil was first published in Smith's self-produced chapbook The Double Shadow and Other Fantasies in 1933, after failing to find a commercial publisher. It reappeared in Stirring Science Stories in February 1941. Clark Ashton Smith (1893–1961) was a California poet, painter, sculptor and writer of weird fiction, one of the central figures of the Weird Tales circle alongside H.P. Lovecraft and Robert E. Howard, with whom he maintained a long correspondence.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-classic-ghost-stories-podcast--7002956/support.*To buy my paperback books:* https://books.by/tony-walker-booksThe Classic Ghost Stories Newsletter — short essays on the genre, odd discoveries, and recommendations.

In June 1865, two children went into the woods for a picnic and never came home — and what was found a week later would horrify New England for nearly a decade before a wandering old man's confession turned the case into something far stranger than anyone imagined.EPISODE BLOG PAGE (includes sources): https://weirddarkness.com/busseywoodsFEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: It began when a teenager made a deal with the Devil in the mid 1970s. That's when the werewolf sightings began – and some experts say there is proof of their existence. (Werewolves of Central England) *** Some think they are escaped circus freaks, others that they are strange medical experiments gone wrong. Some believe them to be ghosts or demons. What are the terrifying white animals or entities people are seeing in Pennsylvania – and could it be more than one kind of creature? (Mystery Monsters From P.A.) *** A couple moves to an old mining town with a dark past… and the darkness apparently hasn't gone away yet. (The Old Mining Town) *** Is it any surprise that something strange might happen in a pub that used to be a church? One of our Weirdo family members tells her story. (Bandit) *** One of the best worst poets of all time has taken inspiration from a certain mountain in North Carolina – but even when there for the solitude, he wasn't alone. (The Phantom Hiker of Grandfather Mountain) *** In 1946, a sadistic killer dressed in a white mask terrorized a small town at night. And to this day, the Moonlight Murders killer could still be at large. (The Unsolved Texarkana Murders) *** Plus, I'll share a chapter from the audiobook, “Suffer the Children: American Horrors, Homicides and Hauntings” by Troy Taylor, a story called “The Most Monstrous and Inhuman Criminal of Modern Times”. CHAPTERS & TIME STAMPS (All Times Approximate)…00:00:00.000 = The Foreboding00:01:32.648 = Show Open00:04:06.836 = Werewolves of Central England00:12:36.537 = Mystery Monsters From P.A. ***00:28:16.172 = Bandit00:30:39.204 = The Old Mining Town00:37:40.282 = The Phantom Hitchhiker of Grandfather Mountain ***00:40:39.173 = The Unsolved Texarkana Murders00:47:50.775 = The Most Monstrous And Inhuman Criminal of Modern Times, Part 100:53:29.952 = The Most Monstrous And Inhuman Criminal of Modern Times, Part 2 ***01:20:10.413 = The Most Monstrous And Inhuman Criminal of Modern Times, Part 3 ***01:40:39.633 = Show Close*** = Begins immediately after inserted ad breakLISTEN ON PODCAST APPS: Look for this podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, Amazon Music, Pandora, TuneIn Radio, and other podcast apps.

When the light fades, the silence weighs differently. Some houses hold warnings that are only understood when it's too late. Some goodbyes don't come alone… and some figures don't need a storm to appear. In this episode of Tales of the Night, we'll hear stories where darkness isn't just the absence of light, but the presence of something more. Something that mimics voices. Something that returns after death. Something that waits in alleyways when we think we're alone. Turn off the light if you dare. Because some things… only approach when everything is dark.

On November 25th, 1996, Rod Ferrell and Scott Anderson, two teenagers from Murray, Kentucky, broke into the home of Heather Wendorf. Ferrell then bludgeoned her middle-aged parents to death. Ferrell and Anderson then escaped with three teenage girls, one being Heather Wendorf herself. In 2010, the author was contacted by Sondra ‘Star' Gibson, Rod Ferrell's mother, who wanted the public to know her son's full story through never seen before original art, poems, and handwritten letters of the infamous killer. Reporters presented the public with stories of Sondra participating with her son in cult rituals and sacrifices. Vampire Cult Killer seeks to unravel the real story of Rod Ferrell. This book goes deeper than any other, and it contains the full transcripts of court cases, interviews, and photos of the killer from early childhood to present day. Also is included the full court cases, and the follow up examination of his case when the notorious killer went back to court petitioning for his release in 2019, when mental health experts testified during the resentencing hearings that vampire cult leader Rod Ferrell has changed.

Step into the strange and biting world of Edgar Allan Poe's Lionizing, a sharp gothic satire that blends dark humor, social commentary, and Poe's signature fascination with vanity, status, and human absurdity. In this unforgettable classic, a man's rise to fame is built on something as ridiculous as it is disturbing — and the higher he climbs into fashionable society, the more twisted the praise, obsession, and cruelty become.If you love Edgar Allan Poe stories, classic horror, gothic fiction, macabre satire, and eerie tales that expose the ugliness hiding beneath beauty and popularity, this episode delivers a weird, witty, and wonderfully unsettling listen. Lionizing is a perfect example of Poe's ability to mix the bizarre with the brilliant, turning a strange premise into a chilling reflection on ego, reputation, and the madness of public adoration.Lionizing — by Edgar Allan Poe

Sarah and Susie are participating in an unconventional macabre game when they predict which celebrities will die this year, but Sarah argues it's a "celebration of life." We debate the Tourette's Syndrome scandal at the BAFTAs and consider what the appropriate way to handle it was. Susie shares a story of a woman who's AI chatbot started claiming she would meet her soulmate at a particular time and place, and, spoiler alert, she didn't, but now she's raising alarm bells about the persuasive nature of AI and LLMs. We discuss the Olympic skater known as the Quad God and his disappointing performance in Madrid, and we learn the science of "choking" when put under pressure and techniques to help prevent the "yips," or choking when stressed. Susie describes The Queen of Chess documentary, the sexism in the sport, the little girl who beat Bobby Fisher's 30-year record, and why grown men are petrified of losing to a girl.Brain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Get $30 off your first box - PLUS free Croissants for life - when you go to https://wildgrain.com/braincandy to start your subscription today!This episode is sponsored by Betterhelp.

In February 1826, 17-year-old Edgar Allan Poe was a promising student at the University of Virginia. But within a few months, gambling debts forced him to abandon his studies. It was just one of many setbacks Poe endured in a life marked by financial struggle, alcoholism, and personal tragedy.But Poe launched a remarkable career in writing, helping to establish American literature with a bold, new voice. From short stories including “The Fall of the House of Usher,” to the poem that made him famous, “The Raven,” he transformed the horror genre by delving into the dark recesses of the human subconscious and pushing the boundaries of fiction and verse.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
