Three days. Seventeen hours. Twelve jurors, five possible verdicts, and a door nobody can see behind.Day three of deliberations in the Lindsay Clancy trial ended Monday afternoon with no verdict and instructions to come back Tuesday. Robin breaks down where the case actually stands...the criminal responsibility standard, what "not guilty" would really mean here, and why the jury's request for the pill bottles and the knife tells you they're doing the work.Then the sidewalk: the pink shirts, the twenty-five-plus Etsy designs, the defense attorney fan merchandise, the free coffee at a verdict watch, and the fact that somebody bought the Duxbury house.Plus a viral post arguing that a not-guilty verdict from a nine-woman jury is grounds for repealing the Nineteenth Amendment, and the math problem that argument doesn't survive.And in Philadelphia in the House of Horrors case...fifty hard drives, five urns, four missing women, no bodies, and what investigators say they found on one of those drives this week, which is something Western media very much claims doesn't exist as a theory. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/we-saw-the-devil-unfiltered-political-analysis--4433638/support.Website: http://www.wesawthedevil.comPatreon: http://www.patreon.com/wesawthedevilRobin's Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/robin_wstdTwitter: http://www.twitter.com/WeSawtheDevilInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/wesawthedevilpodcast.TikTok: tiktok.com/@wesawthedevilpolitics

The First Lady returned to Movie Torture, and within minutes the movie review turned into an intervention for Brad.Hannah reminded everyone that Brad once "fired" her from her Movie Torture trivia job, only for the people who replaced her to never actually do a single episode. Mark had the privilege of watching years of unresolved workplace drama unfold in real time, while Brad slowly realized this wasn't a movie review anymore—it was free therapy. Somewhere along the way Brad publicly apologized, Hannah accepted, and everyone agreed she's still the reigning First Lady of Movie Torture. Before the movie even started, Hannah also revealed she still watches VHS tapes on an old tube television, buys random VHS lots off Facebook Marketplace, and somehow accidentally watched the wrong Air Bud movie for a previous episode. Instead of basketball, she watched the soccer sequel, leading to the only Movie Torture episode that accidentally reviewed two different movies at the same time. That's the kind of professionalism listeners have come to expect. Then they finally got around to The Breadwinner, starring comedian Nate Bargatze. Everyone agreed Nate is hilarious on stage, but Brad immediately questioned whether making him the lead of a feature film was the right move. Mark compared him to comedians who work better stealing scenes than carrying an entire movie, while Hannah sat there wondering why the guys already sounded disappointed five minutes into the discussion. The biggest mystery wasn't the plot—it was the budget. The movie reportedly cost $25 million, which left Brad completely baffled. His theory was that half the budget must have gone toward Toyota because every other scene looked like a commercial for the Tacoma. Hannah quickly looked it up and confirmed Toyota actually was a major sponsor, which only made Brad even more suspicious. At one point he was convinced the real title should've been The Breadwinner... Presented by Toyota. The movie itself follows a successful car salesman who somehow doesn't know where his own kids go to school, can't remember to take out the trash, and appears completely incapable of surviving without his wife's color-coded schedule. Hannah defended the character by saying she'd watched the exact same thing happen in her own house growing up, while Brad and Mark couldn't understand how a man intelligent enough to become Salesman of the Year couldn't figure out how to make breakfast. Everyone agreed the funniest scene was the Shark Tank sequence. Nate spends the entire pitch eating donuts while the Sharks slowly decide they like his wife far more than they like him. Brad couldn't understand why nobody seemed to appreciate Nate's charm, while Hannah pointed out that the Sharks had already decided he was a deadbeat husband before he even opened his mouth. The discussion quickly turned into real Shark Tank history, where they discovered the investors passed on Ring before Amazon bought it for over a billion dollars. Brad immediately wanted to go back and watch that episode just to see everyone's regret in real time. The conversation drifted—as it always does—to Colin Jost, Scarlett Johansson, Mandy Moore, Daisy Duke, Ring doorbells, home security cameras, and whether Brad would've survived his mailman days if Ring cameras had existed back then. His conclusion? Twenty years ago he could toss a package onto your porch from halfway down the sidewalk. Today he'd have to gently place it on the welcome mat while smiling for the camera. By the time Nate's wife finally left for Korea and trusted him to run the household, everyone watching already knew exactly what was coming.The only person who didn't......was Nate

Truth Be Told
The Wrong Question About Torture: Lessons of Guantanamo Bay

Truth Be Told

What happens when fear becomes policy—and the people labeled “the worst of the worst” are no longer treated as people? In this episode of the Truth Be Told Podcast, host Dave Thompson, CFI explores the powerful story behind the documentary Leaving Hotel California and the complicated legacy of Guantanamo Bay, post-9/11 interrogations, enhanced interrogation techniques, torture, and the human consequences of abandoning evidence-based investigative practices. Dave is joined by filmmakers Chimène de Jonge and Aybüke Demirel, former NCIS Special Agent Mark Fallon, and former Guantanamo detainee and Guantánamo Diary author Mohamedou Ould Slahi for a conversation about investigative interviewing, coercion, false information, cognitive bias, morality, forgiveness, and what happens when fear begins influencing the investigative process. Inside Leaving Hotel California Support the Documentary Here. The documentary Leaving Hotel California examines Guantanamo Bay through the experiences of the people who lived this history from dramatically different perspectives. Chimène and Aybüke explain how a journalism project driven by their interest in human rights evolved into a documentary focused not simply on what happened at Guantanamo, but on the people behind the history. Their reporting led them to former government officials, investigators, intelligence professionals, attorneys, and detainees as they attempted to understand what actually happened—and why. Mark Fallon: Fighting Torture From Inside the System Mark Fallon offers a rare perspective from inside the U.S. government's response to September 11. As a senior NCIS investigator involved in terrorism investigations after 9/11, Fallon describes watching interrogation practices evolve from legitimate investigative efforts toward coercive techniques and prisoner abuse. He discusses his attempts to challenge those practices, document what was happening, and warn government leadership about how history would ultimately judge the decisions being made. The conversation also examines SERE — Survival, Evasion, Resistance and Escape — training and the controversial decision to adapt techniques designed to help U.S. personnel resist abusive treatment for use in interrogations. Fallon explains the fundamental contradiction: techniques associated with increasing resistance and producing unreliable or false information were being adapted as methods for obtaining intelligence. For investigators, law enforcement professionals, HR investigators, intelligence professionals, and anyone interested in science-based investigative interviewing, the lesson extends well beyond Guantanamo: Pressure can produce compliance. That doesn't mean it produces reliable information. Mohamedou Ould Slahi: The Human Being Behind the Label Mohamedou brings the conversation from interrogation theory to lived experience. He describes his detention, interrogation, sleep deprivation, abuse, and the psychological impact of being treated not as an individual, but as part of a category of people presumed to be dangerous. But Mohamedou also challenges one of the most common debates surrounding enhanced interrogation: Why is the question whether torture works? What if the more important question is whether torture is morally acceptable in the first place? That distinction creates one of the most powerful moments of the episode and forces a broader conversation about ethics, investigative integrity, human rights, and what limits should exist even when investigators believe the stakes could not be higher. Investigative Bias, False Information & the Danger of Certainty The episode also explores how the fear and uncertainty following September 11 created conditions where confirmation bias, categorization, assumptions, and investigative tunnel vision could influence decision-making. Fallon describes investigators being tasked not only with identifying people responsible for terrorism, but also with investigating evidence that could exonerate detainees who should not have been at Guantanamo in the first place. It's a lesson that remains relevant to investigators today. When investigators become committed to a conclusion before fully developing the information, the interview can shift from an effort to discover what happened into an effort to confirm what we already believe happened. An Unexpected Friendship Perhaps the most powerful part of Leaving Hotel California isn't about interrogation at all. It's about the friendship that developed between Mark Fallon and Mohamedou Ould Slahi. Their relationship began through books, virtual conversations, and shared discussions about Guantanamo before the filmmakers ultimately captured their first meeting in person. Fallon describes what drew him to Mohamedou simply: his humanity. At the airport, Mohamedou greeted Mark with a sign inspired by the phrase displayed at Guantanamo, “Honor Bound to Defend Freedom.” Mohamedou's version carried a different message: “Bound to remain human.” That idea becomes the thread running through the entire conversation. Behind every investigation, accusation, intelligence report, interrogation, and headline is a human being. And regardless of what someone is suspected of doing, investigators still have an obligation to remain objective, ethical, curious—and human. In This Episode Dave, Mark, Mohamedou, Chimène, and Aybüke discuss: The story behind the documentary Leaving Hotel California Guantanamo Bay and the U.S. response following September 11 Mark Fallon's role investigating terrorism after 9/11 Mohamedou Ould Slahi's experience at Guantanamo Bay Enhanced interrogation techniques and torture SERE training and its adaptation for interrogation Coercion, compliance, and false or unreliable information False confessions and the psychology of interrogation Confirmation bias and investigative tunnel vision Science-based and evidence-based investigative interviewing Ethics and morality in interrogation Human rights and the rule of law The importance of documenting and challenging investigative decisions Journalism and documentary filmmaking as forms of investigation Forgiveness, empathy, moral courage and humanity The friendship between Mark Fallon and Mohamedou Ould Slahi     Ultimately, this episode asks a question that extends far beyond Guantanamo Bay: When the pressure is highest and we're most certain we're right, can we still remain curious enough to challenge our assumptions—and principled enough to remain human? About Wicklander-Zulawski & Associates The Truth Be Told Podcast is hosted by Dave Thompson, CFI, CEO of Wicklander-Zulawski & Associates (WZ). For more than four decades, Wicklander-Zulawski has trained investigators around the world in investigative interviewing, workplace investigations, criminal investigative interviewing, rapport development, cognitive interviewing, interview strategy, and evidence-based approaches to obtaining reliable information.

Through instructor-led programs and the Human Risk Academy powered by WZ, Wicklander-Zulawski provides training and professional development for law enforcement, corporate investigations, loss prevention and asset protection, human resources and employee relations professionals, and other investigators responsible for navigating high-risk human interactions.

MTD returned from the beach, Mark came back for another week of bad movies, and within five minutes the movie review had somehow become a pitch meeting for reality television. Brad introduced Life Stinks, where rich people have to survive homeless for 30 days, before Mark improved it with Life Swap, where a guy from rural Nebraska gets dropped into New York City while a city slicker gets sent to a farm and spends the next month being called "City Boy." Honestly, the guys may have accidentally come up with a better idea than the movie they were reviewing. Eventually they remembered they were supposed to talk about Backrooms. Brad's one-minute synopsis somehow made more sense than the actual movie. A struggling furniture salesman discovers mysterious endless hallways beneath his failing store, tells his psychiatrist about them, brings his coworkers inside, everyone starts disappearing, and somehow the psychiatrist decides that's enough evidence to go exploring herself. Sure... why not?The biggest surprise of the episode wasn't the movie—it was Mark. He admitted he genuinely loved the first hour of Backrooms, while Brad looked at him like he'd just nominated Madame Web for Best Picture. The debate lasted most of the episode, with Mark defending the atmosphere and Brad insisting the movie forgot one tiny detail... explaining literally anything. The one thing everyone agreed on was that the real star wasn't the furniture salesman or the psychiatrist—it was the backrooms themselves. Endless yellow hallways, buzzing fluorescent lights, abandoned office furniture, and that unsettling feeling of being somewhere you definitely shouldn't be. Brad even admitted the creepiest place he'd ever worked wasn't a haunted house—it was helping his girlfriend at Bath & Body Works after the mall closed. Apparently empty shopping malls at night are nightmare fuel all by themselves. As they broke down the movie, the questions just kept piling up. Why is Clark sleeping on mattresses he's supposed to sell? Who wants to buy a bed that's doubled as a grown man's apartment? How is this furniture store still in business when no customers ever appear? And who's paying the electric bill for an underground maze with enough fluorescent lights to power a small city? Naturally, none of those questions stayed on topic for long. Somehow the conversation turned into Brad explaining that if he ever lost an arm, he wouldn't want a modern prosthetic—he'd want a full Captain Hook hook. Not because it would be practical, but because people would remember him as "the hook-hand guy." By the end of the conversation they were designing interchangeable hook attachments like they were building the Swiss Army Knife of pirate hands. Then the movie paused so the guys could discuss psychiatry. Brad decided he'd make an awful therapist because he'd spend sessions doodling his autograph instead of listening. He also admitted he'd constantly want to tell Mark about the bizarre patients he'd seen that day, which is probably why becoming a psychiatrist was never in the cards. Ironically, the movie finally became its strongest once everyone entered the backrooms together. The found-footage scenes were genuinely creepy, the atmosphere worked, and both Brad and Mark were convinced the movie was about to take off. Instead, it introduced more mysteries than answers. Who was the figure lurking in the halls? What exactly are the backrooms? Why do they exist? The answer, apparently, is that you're supposed to watch the YouTube series first.By the end of the episode, the biggest mystery wasn't Backrooms. It was how a movie can make hundreds of millions of dollars while still leaving Brad convinced that the scariest thing in the entire film was buying a mattress that Clark had been sleeping—and farting—on for months.

The Titan Prometheus is among the most influential and controversial figures in Greek Mythology. He shaped humanity from clay and gifted us fire; fire which he stole from the gods, a crime for which he is punished by Zeus. Yet in fragments of lost myth, a son of Zeus sees to it that his punishment is not forever.Philosophers, writers, and artists have wrestled with the myth of Prometheus for thousands of years, debating whether he is a hero or villain, and if his gift of fire is a blessing or a curse. But universally, every time and place that examines his story becomes a center of arts and culture. In engaging with the myth of Prometheus, the champion of humanity and rival of Zeus, we might find the same wisdom and inspiration that they did.Mythos & Logos are two ancient words that can be roughly translated as “Story & Meaning.”Support the channel by subscribing, liking, and commenting to join the conversation!Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/mythosandlogos00:00 Introduction00:08 Prometheus by Maxfield Parrish00:43 Prometheus Stealing Fire by Jan Cossiers01:00 Prometheus With Torch by Frans Huygelen, photographed by Wolfgang Pehlemann, licensed under Creative Commons01:07 Prometheus by Paul Manship, photographed by Emanuela Meme Giudici, licensed under Creative Comons01:30 Shaper of Clay01:34 Prometheus by Kuzma Petrov-Vodkin02:00 Engraving from the Museum of Giovanni Carafa02:29 Illumination of Ovid's Metamorphoses from the Bodleian Library03:09 Fire Thief03:13 Prometheus by José Clemente Orozco03:55 Sacrifice to Athena by the Painter of Berlin, photographed by ArchaiOptix, licensed under Creative Commons04:29 Jupiter by Hans Thoma04:43 Hesiod, Works and Days05:08 Prometheus Brings Fire to Mankind by Heinrich Füger05:18 Crime and Punishment05:22 Pandora Crowned by the Seasons by William Etty05:41 Pandora by John William Waterhouse05:54 Pandora by Jules Joseph Lefebvre06:06 Prometheus Bound by Thomas Cole06:16 Prometheus Bound by Peter Paul Rubens06:22 Prometheus by Theodoor Rombouts06:41 Creation of Pandora by the Niobid Painter06:50 Hispania by Cecilio Plá07:04 The Torture of Prometheus by Jean Louis César Lair07:16 Giovanni Boccaccio by Andrea del Castagno07:21 Marsillio Ficino by Cristofano dell'Altissimo07:28 Study for Prometheus by John Singer Sargent07:53 Prometheus by Gustave Moreau08:04 Prometheus Unbound08:08 Heracles Freeing the Bound Prometheus, from the Louvre08:16 Hercules Farnese08:41 Prometheus' Liberation by Carl Bloch09:03 Aeschylus, from the Naples National Archaeological Museum, photographed by Zdeněk Kratochví, licensed under Creative Commons09:15 Titan Struck by Lightning by François Dumont09:23 Achilles and Thetis by Friedrich Preller the Younger09:46 Hercules Frees Prometheus by Frank T Merrill10:06 Myth of Prometheus by Piero di Cosimo10:34 Bringer of Light10:58 Eagle of Zeus by Triodos Trivium, licensed under Creative Commons11:03 Prometheus Animating Man by Parmigianino11:11 Title Page to Frankenstein by Mary ShelleyAll works of art are public domain unless stated otherwise.

And for now D&A take the helm!   Our first order of business is the G1 Climax 36 Final from Ryōgoku, where Ryohei Oiwa cinched in the Big Lock to submit Yuya Uemura in a battle of first-time finalists and captured the biggest prize of his career.

Then we go long. All 19 competitors, one by one, with our honest verdict on each man's tournament. Who used these three weeks to change how the audience sees them, who coasted on reputation, who got buried in a block that never gave them a real chance to shine, and whether the youth movement that produced a final four of Oiwa, Uemura, Yota Tsuji and Callum Newman is the clearest sign yet of how New Japan intends to move forward.

MTD was at the beach.Jacob turned 91.And somehow that combination led to a discussion about Chris Hansen, suspicious party guests carrying cookies, and why Facebook Marketplace might be the most dangerous place on the internet. Before they even mentioned the movie, Brad unloaded weeks of Marketplace trauma.One guy negotiated the price......only to announce he was already on his way to buy someone else's bike.Another promised to show up Saturday morning, completely disappeared, read Brad's messages hours later, and never replied.Then there was the 3 a.m. message from a woman who wanted an e-bike delivered halfway across the state because her boyfriend would meet him there.At that point, Brad was convinced every Marketplace sale ends with either getting ghosted or getting kidnapped.Mark didn't exactly disagree.The two spent several minutes wondering why basic human communication seems to disappear the moment someone opens Facebook Marketplace. They even pitched an entire bonus episode devoted to reading ridiculous Marketplace messages because, frankly, they write themselves. Eventually they remembered they were supposed to review Obsession.The movie follows Bear, a painfully awkward guy who's too afraid to ask Nikki out, so instead he buys a magical "One Wish Willow" from the creepiest crystal shop imaginable.Rather than wishing for confidence......or money......or unlimited wishes......he wishes Nikki will love him more than anything else in the world.As expected, that turns out to be one of the worst decisions in horror movie history.Brad couldn't understand why Bear was so terrified to ask her out in the first place. Nikki practically hands him the opportunity on a silver platter, asking if he likes her while they're sitting alone in the car.Instead......he freezes.Then immediately cracks open the magical wish stick.Problem solved.Sort of. The guys loved the creepy crystal shop, especially the employee who looked less like a cashier and more like someone who escaped from another dimension.Brad's theory?The store isn't actually a store at all.It's basically hell with retail hours.Neither of them could figure out how a company selling cursed wishing sticks hasn't been sued into oblivion.Somehow the business just keeps operating. From there, the conversation wandered completely off the rails.William Baldwin was declared the greatest Baldwin because he got Sharon Stone and Cindy Crawford in consecutive movies.Russell Crowe was accused of eating Russell Crowe.They reminisced about AOL discs, Prodigy internet, Pizza Hut's Back to the Future Part II glasses, and enough forgotten '90s thrillers to fill several future episodes.At one point they honestly seemed to forget Obsession existed.Then someone remembered.Barely. When they finally returned to the movie, both hosts agreed it delivered exactly what horror fans have been missing: an original premise, genuine creepiness, and a villain who creates his own nightmare because he refuses to have one uncomfortable conversation.Not bad for a movie that cost less than most Hollywood catering budgets.

What's the line between child abuse and child torture? It's an awful question, but one we have to ask. Today, a man charged with several felony counts of child torture for taking his kids on a hike in a winter storm appeared in court. The three children were severely injured in the hike -- two of them critically -- and had to be rescued from the wintry weather. Now, Micah Smith is asking the court to allow him to contact his three children, who were 2, 4, and 8 at the time of the incident.

At sixteen years old, Alex Skeel believed he had found his first love in Jordan Worth. She was an intelligent and ambitious young woman who seemed to offer him the a life and family. But behind closed doors, that relationship descended into years of control and escalating violence as Alex became increasingly isolated from his family, deprived of food and subjected to attacks with bottles, hammers, knives and boiling water.By the summer of 2017, the once healthy, football loving young man was severely underweight, covered in untreated injuries and burns, and trapped inside a home where even seeking medical treatment had become nearly impossible. It would take concerned neighbours, repeated police visits and one officer unwilling to accept Alex's explanations before the horrifying reality of what was happening inside that house finally began to emerge.Our other podcast: "FEARFUL" - https://open.spotify.com/show/56ajNkLiPoIat1V2KI9n5c?si=OyM38rdsSSyyzKAFUJpSywMERCH:https://www.redbubble.com/people/wickedandgrim/shop?asc=uPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/wickedandgrim?fan_landing=trueYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@wickedlifeFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/wickedandgrim/ Instagram:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wickedandgrim/?hl=enTwitter: https://twitter.com/wickedandgrimWebsite: https://www.wickedandgrim.com/

Mark survived his first episode, so naturally he came back for another.This time, Brad kicked things off with a travel story that somehow involved a near-missed flight, a greasy Bojangles biscuit that stained his shorts, and enough airport anxiety to make MTD's "arrive four hours early" philosophy sound completely reasonable. Then they reviewed Halloween H20.Except... they refused to call it Halloween H20.Within minutes the movie had been permanently renamed Halloween Water, because apparently someone in Hollywood thought using the chemical formula for water was cooler than calling it Halloween 20 Years Later. Brad wasn't buying it.Instead of discussing the plot, the guys immediately started pitching better movies.What if Michael Myers went camping?What if Michael Myers took a road trip across America?What if Michael Myers stopped at Buc-ee's to carve brisket?What if he worked the carving station wearing a hairnet while still carrying the same knife he'd been using for twenty years?All of those somehow sounded more entertaining than the actual movie.Then came the question nobody at the studio apparently asked:How does Michael Myers get from Illinois to California?This is before GPS.Did he have an atlas?Did he stop at a gas station and ask for directions?Did he kill people just to pay for fuel?Did he spend the night at a Motel 6?These are the mysteries Movie Torture asks because Hollywood refuses to.The movie itself didn't escape the criticism either.Brad couldn't figure out why Michael Myers suddenly decides not to kill people he normally would.Mark questioned how Laurie Strode somehow became the head of a private school after faking her identity.Neither of them understood why the school supposedly had hundreds of students but only about six people ever appear on screen.By the halfway point they'd also discussed Kevin Williamson, Dawson's Creek, Josh Hartnett's permanently messy hair, LL Cool J's career, Rocky, The Muppet Show, and whether Michael Myers secretly wakes up every October 31st like a bear coming out of hibernation thinking, "Guess it's time to go find Laurie again."Somewhere in there they did eventually talk about Halloween Water.Not much.But enough to conclude that twenty years of waiting somehow produced a movie where the funniest part wasn't Michael Myers......it was imagining him asking a stranger for directions to California.

[REDIFFUSION] Bienvenue dans les Fabuleux Destin, le podcast pour découvrir des histoires vraies et étonnantes. Cette semaine, découvrez l'incroyable histoire du couple Lucie et Raymond Aubrac. Véritable héros de la résistance lors de la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Ils ont mené des actions dans le but d'informer les différents groupes résistants français permettant aux forces armées de perdurer pendant l'occupation. Proche de Jean Moulin, et d'autres grands noms de la résistance, ils sont des personnages incontournables de cette période historique. Joignez-vous à nous et revivez ce récit au travers de cette saison.  Arrestation et torture  Le 10 novembre 1942, la Wehrmacht envahit la zone sud, jusqu'ici restée « libre ». Hitler a peur : les alliés du général de Gaulle sont parvenus à s'emparer de territoires stratégiques en Afrique du Nord, tandis que la résistance en zone sud ne cesse de prendre de l'ampleur. Le Führer, craignant que ses ennemis tentent un débarquement dans la région de Toulon, décide de manière unilatérale de bafouer les accords de Montoire et d'étendre son pouvoir sur l'ensemble du territoire français. À Lyon, où Lucie et Raymond Aubrac intensifient leurs activités clandestines, les SS investissent tous les bâtiments officiels. Le réseau « Libération » doit redoubler de vigilance, d'autant qu'il n'a cessé de gagner en importance - devenant le deuxième réseau le plus important de la zone sud. Le journal, deux ans après sa création, approche désormais les 100 000 tirages par numéro.

Celebrate Summerween and Halloween in July with four complete narrated Halloween horror stories featuring Bigfoot, vampires, zombies, demons, supernatural folklore, and terrifying encounters after dark. In this special Weekly Spooky horror compilation, a night watchman is hunted across a remote wind farm by a violent Sasquatch, a centuries-old vampire couple spends its anniversary inside a shopping mall after closing, a bicycle courier risks his life delivering supplies during the zombie apocalypse, and a desperate manager discovers that his mysterious new employer may be recruiting workers for Hell itself. These four scary stories combine Bigfoot horror, Sasquatch attacks, vampire horror, zombie apocalypse survival, demonic bargains, workplace horror, dark comedy, supernatural suspense, cryptid encounters, and Halloween campfire storytelling into one feature-length audio horror anthology. Start spooky season early with this Summerween horror special, perfect for listeners searching for Halloween stories, scary stories, horror fiction, creepypasta, cryptid stories, vampire fiction, zombie horror, supernatural thrillers, narrated horror podcasts, and frightening stories told around the campfire. “I Guard Windmills, and I'm Not Sure If I'll Survive the Shift” Written by Michael KelsoA survivor of two disastrous supernatural jobs accepts an overnight security position at a remote wind farm. But when he discovers a burned turbine and evidence of something enormous moving through the surrounding forest, his quiet night shift becomes a brutal chase involving a furious Bigfoot with a violent grudge. “A Night at the Galleria” Written by Rob FieldsA seemingly young couple hides inside a shopping mall for an after-hours anniversary celebration. When three thieves break into the deserted galleria, they have no idea that the romantic strangers watching them have remained together since the Black Death—or what the ancient vampires intend to do next. “Send Beer” Written by Michelle AntisocialIn a city devastated by the zombie apocalypse, bicycle courier Felix and a flock of homing pigeons keep isolated survivors supplied with groceries and medicine. But when a regular customer stops responding and one of the birds returns covered in blood, a routine welfare check reveals an infected family and an unexpectedly useful bottle of vodka. “Torture and Other Job Skills” Written by Killian CraneAfter losing the management position that defined his life, a cruel and desperate man answers a mysterious help-wanted advertisement. The address leads him to a black-glass office tower where revenge, torture, and complete moral surrender are not workplace violations—they are requirements for employment. Turn down the lights, escape the summer heat, and celebrate Halloween in July with four tales of monsters, bloodsuckers, the undead, and infernal employment. Summerween begins now on Weekly Spooky.

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?!
