Every second Monday at midnight, a blood-faced ghost walks the ruins of Rollesby Hall — but whose blood stains his face, and whose death keeps him there, depends on who you ask.*No AI Voices Are Used In The Narration Of This Podcast*IN THIS EPISODE: One of the most intriguing Hopi legends involves the ant people, who were crucial to the Hopi's survival, not just once, but twice. We know this from the cave drawings they left behind. But who or what exactly were the ant people? (The Ant People and the Anunnaki) *** The red-faced ghost of Rollesby comes with an an identity crisis. People aren't sure if the bloody face they see is the ghost of a murderer - or a victim of murder. (The Red-Faced Ghost of Rollesby) *** A woman is scared senseless when someone visits her home during a rainstorm… but it's not just any passerby. (The Faceless Girl In The Striped Dress) *** One thing people just cannot seem to resist is a challenge – doubly so if you happen to be of the criminal persuasion. If they're told a place is impregnable, it makes it an almost irresistible challenge. (Never Say Your Place Is Impregnable) *** Joachim Kroll, the "Ruhr Cannibal," terrorized West Germany for over 20 years, eating the flesh of his victims because "meat was expensive." (The Duisburg Man Eater) *** It is said that the Vatican is holding manuscripts that hold details about ancient races of man that used to populate the Americas – powerful rulers from the south, described as having white beards, and red eyes. Who could these people have been – and where have they gone? (The Mystery of the Ancient White-Bearded Red-Eyed Rulers) *** We all know the Nazis inflicted terror and death upon innocent people during WWII – but many don't know just how horrifying the treatment was, particular the experiments they conducted on living prisoners.

Kick-off those worn-out shoes, let your hair down and pour yourself some lite roast, because the Bo-Hosts welcome you to: Sammy Sunday Mornings! The "BONUS OTIS" mini-episodes are bite-size and focus on the mellower side of the RedRocker's catalog!As the Bo-Hosts continue the 5150 @ 40 celebrations, they reflect back to Sammy and Eddie's 1993 appearance at Neil Young's Bridge School Benefit concert where they played  "Love Walks In".  This soulful rendition was just piano and vocal, which definitely qualifies it as a Sammy Sunday Mornings track!  Sammy has stated many times that this soulful tune was written about Aliens; a very specific topic he firmly believes in. As a metaphor for love, or for making a deep connection with someone- or something - it raises the question: do Aliens really exist? Are you a believer like Sammy is? The Bo-Hosts each share their opinions on this, and one of the Bo-Hosts reveals they've been visited!

For two years, a knife-wielding predator terrorized the women of London — but when authorities finally made an arrest, the evidence was shakier than anyone wanted to admit. "The Monster" terrorized fashionable women by slashing their clothing and flesh, leading to a sensational manhunt that captured a suspect – but was he really the culprit?*No AI Voices Are Used In The Narration Of This Podcast*IN THIS EPISODE: In March 1788 Maria Smythe was attacked by a stranger who uttered some foul words, stabbed her, then ran. She survived, but was only the first of more than fifty women to suffer the same in London. This wasn't Jack The Ripper – he wouldn't come along for another 100 years. This was the Monster of London. (The Monster of London) *** On his first day walking to the bus stop alone before school, Etan Patz was abducted – and became one of the first children whose face ended up on a milk carton. (The Boy On The Milk Carton) *** If you are left-handed, you might be offended by one of the stories I have in this episode. But then, you lefties are all sinister anyway, right? (The Sinister Left-Handers) *** In 1827, young Maria Marten slipped into a red barn to meet her secret lover. It was the last time she would be seen alive. (The Red Barn Murder) *** It sounds like the makings of a paranormal slasher film – a woman is followed home one day by a paranormal entity – an entity that is angry because it used to be a human that was murdered. (The Haunting of Leah Lewis) *** Imagine your business is failing and you need to drum up customers, so you hire a consultant. “No problem,” he says. “All I need is a few things to get started… do you happen to have have any problems chopping off your closest living relative's hand?” Welcome to Muti magic that some say still takes place even today. (Murderous Muti Magic) *** Edward Howard Bell was a murderer on the run and evaded capture for close to twenty years. When finally captured, authorities found out they didn't just have a murderer… but a serial killer, who he claims had sent eleven young girls to heaven.

In this episode, hosts Freddy Morris and Joe Juvland get into the classic Twilight Zone story, "The Mind of the Matter." Originally aired during the show's second season, this episode follows Archibald Beechcroft, a man who becomes increasingly frustrated with the bustling crowds and inconsiderate people around him. After acquiring the ability to alter reality simply by focusing his mind, Beechcroft uses his power to remove annoyances from his life and eventually reshape the world to his liking. However, his experiments with omnipotence lead to unexpected and isolating consequences, driving home the story's central themes of loneliness, hubris, and the dangers of unchecked control.    Freddy and Joe explore the plot twists in depth, including the moment Beechcroft realizes that a world entirely of people like himself is intolerable. They discuss how this episode reflects the series' signature commentary on human nature and society. The hosts also highlight the enduring impact of the narrative, noting how its moral and psychological undertones remain relevant to contemporary audiences who grapple with similar frustrations in an overcrowded world.

In 1903, two hunters tracking moose through the frozen Yukon wilderness stumbled upon a massive furrow in the mud — thirty feet long, flanked by clawed footprints the size of a man — and followed the trail straight to something that shouldn't exist. What a French traveler, a gold prospector, and a Jesuit priest would witness clambering out of a remote Arctic ravine defies every assumption about what still roams the Canadian wild.*No AI Voices Are Used In The Narration Of This Podcast*IN THIS EPISODE: Is it possible that dinosaurs lived recently? Like, in the 1900s? Even more bizarre… could they have been living in the 20th century in, of all places, the Arctic Circle? (The Monster of Partridge Creek) *** On May 3, 1881, Mena Muller and Louis Kettler took the ferry from New York City to Hoboken, New Jersey. They were going to be married in Hoboken, although they each had a spouse already. The legality of the marriage did not concern them; they were returning to Germany and would start a new life there. But somehow their plans went awry; that night Louis Kettler returned to New York alone and ten days later Mena Muller's body was found in New Jersey with a fractured skull. (The Guttenberg Murder) *** Timothy Trespas lives in his home in Brooklyn. And I do mean in his home – as he rarely leaves the house, because he feels he is being stalked everywhere he goes by gangs of individuals. And he's not the only one. (Gang Stalking Paranoia) *** They say walking is good for you… but that depends on where you walk, when you walk, and who you bump into, as one person found out late one night just trying to alleviate the boredom. (The Smiling Man) *** We've all slept in longer than we planned. What's the longest you ever slept in? Three hours? Thirteen hours? Did you ever sleep three days straight? I think I see maybe two hands raised out there. You two are amateurs. One man slept 300 days out of the year. (Never Enough Sleep) *** A man had several unexplained incidents while hiking in a German forest. Shaken by the events, he eventually encounters a man with bright green eyes. Was this a Guardian Angel or was it a gray alien?

Deep within Navajo culture lives a creature that was once human — a witch who murdered their own family to gain the power to shapeshift, possess the living, and control the dead.*No AI Voices Are Used In The Narration Of This Podcast*IN THIS EPISODE: The Navajo believe there are places where the powers of both good and evil are present and that those powers can be harnessed for either. And the masters of these powers are the skinwalkers. (Skinwalking Witches) *** If you hear the words “murder” and “London” you immediately think of Jack the Ripper – but he is only one of many brutal murderers who prowled the foggy city looking for victims. We'll look at some of the most gruesome in London's history. (Murderous London) *** Since it was built in 1981, the Sunshine Skyway Bridge connecting St. Petersburg to Tampa, Florida has been a harbinger of tragedy. The four-mile-long bridge rises like a mastodon 430 feet into the bright sunlight. On or around the bridge, there have been hundreds of suicides, as well as deadly shipwrecks. And in 2016, there was the heinous murder of a child let down by the very system designed to protect her. (The Bridge to Tragedy) *** You've probably seen a street artist in person or on video appearing to defy gravity – floating as in mid-air, hoping you'll give them some of your pocket change.

Writer-producer Michael Tove is finally seeing his long-held filmmaking dream come to life with the suspenseful short film "Yard Saleing." The story follows a young couple who purchase a mysterious locked box at a yard sale, believing it may contain hidden treasure—only to discover its contents are tied to a dangerous decades-old mystery with deadly consequences. Directed by Tom Logan, the film stars Georgia Van Cuylenberg and Liam Bradford, with supporting performances from Eric Roberts and Eliza Roberts. The project has already enjoyed a successful run on the film festival circuit, earning recognition and strong audience response. Tove's path to filmmaking is a unique one—from working as a featured extra on the 1989 film The Handmaid's Tale to developing projects with legendary producer and former Universal Pictures president Thom Mount. Inspired by the twist endings of O. Henry and the suspense of The Twilight Zone, Tove crafted Yard Saleing as a haunting mystery about curiosity, secrets, and consequences. After decades of persistence, Tove's first produced screenplay proves that sometimes the best creative journeys take time.

There are cases that make people question everything they thought they knew about how justice works — and then there are cases like these. The names Brendan Dassey and Kimberly Long have been argued over in courtrooms, in living rooms, and in comment sections for years, by people who cannot let go of the nagging sense that something went terribly wrong. And wrapped around both of their stories is a question that researchers, attorneys, and psychologists have spent decades trying to answer — one that sounds simple until you really sit with it.*No AI Voices Are Used In The Narration Of This Podcast*Take the Weird Darkness Survey: https://take.supersurvey.com/QGZCRXPVSIN THIS EPISODE: In 2007, a sixteen-year-old boy was tried and convicted as an adult for the assault and murder of a woman in Wisconsin. But is it possible that Brendan Dassey isn't guilty as we were all led to believe? (Is Brendan Dassey Innocent?) *** After a night of bar-hopping, Ozzy Conde and girlfriend Kimberly Long got into an argument that ended up with Ozzy laying on the floor – dead. Kimberly was sent to prison. At least that's the story the prosectors told. But Kimberly fought for years to try and convince people she was not a murderer. But was she? (Kimberly's Long Struggle to Prove Her Innocence) *** The idea of someone breaking down and confessing to police that they committed a crime – when in actuality they did not do it – seems ludicrous to us. But it happens all the time. Why on earth would someone ever do such a thing? We'll look a bit closer at how it happens.

In this episode of The Twilight Zone, Chris and Gerry step into the darkly comic nightmare of "Escape Clause" (Season1, Episode 6), where hypochondriac Walter Bedeker makes a deal with the Devil himself for immortality. But what happens when eternal life becomes boring? We break down the episode's themes of mortality, greed, and existential dread, along with a deep dive into the performances of David Wayne as Walter Bedeker and Thomas Gomez as the unforgettable Mr. Cadwallader. Is "Escape Clause" one of the most underrated early Twilight Zone episodes? How does its dark humor compare to the more somber morality tales of the series? If you love classic television, vintage horror, and morally twisted storytelling with Rod Serling's razor-sharp moral irony, this deep dive into "Escape Clause" is for you.

Twilight Zone (Stacey Keach) || (05) The Night of the Meek | 2002Series release: October 2002 – 2012On Christmas Eve, Corwin arrives for his seasonal job as a department-store Santa an hour late and obviously drunk. When customers complain, Dundee, the manager, fires him and orders him off the premises. Corwin says that he drinks because he lives in a rooming house with the poor, for whom he is incapable of fulfilling his role as Santa. He declares that if he had just one wish granted him on Christmas Eve, he'd "like to see the meek inherit the earth.": : : : :You can donate to show your support for my podcast and the time I put into creating and posting every week.

When scientist Edward Bloom demonstrated humanity's first anti-gravity device to the world, a single billiard ball punched through his chest at the speed of light — and the only question that remains is whether the man who aimed it knew exactly what would happen.*No AI Voices Are Used In The Narration Of This Podcast*Take the Weird Darkness Survey: https://take.supersurvey.com/QGZCRXPVSIN THIS EPISODE: “The Billiard Ball” is a science fiction murder mystery short story by author Isaac Asimov, written in September 1966 and first published in the March 1967 issue of “If”. The story is based on a journalist's tale on the events that occurred when an antigravity device was discovered. The story describes the relationship between the creator of the device, billionaire inventor Edward Bloom, and his old college friend James Priss, a Nobel Prize-winning theoretical physicist who discovered the theory on which Bloom's invention is based. Both also happen to be very good pool players.HELPFUL LINKS & RESOURCES…https://WeirdDarkness.com/STORE = Tees, Mugs, Socks, Hoodies, Totes, Hats, Kidswear & Morehttps://WeirdDarkness.com/HOPE = Hope For Depression or Thoughts of Self-Harmhttps://WeirdDarkness.com/NEWSLETTER = In-Depth Articles, Memes, Weird DarkNEWS, Videos & Morehttps://WeirdDarkness.com/AUDIOBOOKS = FREE Audiobooks Narrated By Darren Marlar SOURCES and RESOURCES:“The Billiard Ball” by Isaac Asimov: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/4a7a9m9a=====(Over time links may become invalid, disappear, or have different content.

A mysterious figure in a wide-brimmed hat and trench coat has been appearing in bedrooms across the world for centuries — and scientists are uncovering disturbing patterns in who sees him and why.*No AI Voices Are Used In The Narration Of This Podcast*Take the Weird Darkness Survey: https://take.supersurvey.com/QGZCRXPVSIN THIS EPISODE: Thousands of people across dozens of countries have reported waking paralyzed in the night, staring at the same featureless figure in a wide-brimmed hat standing in the corner of their room. The trail of documented evidence behind who he is — and where he came from — runs through classified government files, unexplained refugee deaths, and a common allergy medication sold at every pharmacy in America. (The Hat Man: Why Thousands See The Same Ominous Figure In Their Bedrooms) *** Scientists are strapping heart rate monitors on haunted house visitors, equipping them with skin conductance sensors, and running them through chainsaw-wielding pig-men in abandoned factories — and what they're finding about why humans deliberately seek out terror is reshaping how we understand fear, anxiety, therapy, and the human brain itself. Turns out the people walking voluntarily into the dark may be onto something the rest of us haven't figured out yet.

In this episode, hosts Freddy Morris and Joe Juvland dive into the classic Twilight Zone story "Shadow Play," originally aired in 1961 during the show's second season. The story follows Adam Grant, a man trapped in a recurring nightmare where he is on trial for murder and sentenced to execution, only to wake up and relive the same events again and again. They discuss the episode's unique approach to exploring fear, the nature of reality, and the psychological torment of being caught in an endless loop. Freddy and Joe highlight the tense courtroom scenes, the haunting performances—especially Dennis Weaver as Adam Grant—and the way the narrative keeps viewers questioning what is real. They also examine how the episode's twist ending leaves a lasting impression, cementing "Shadow Play" as one of The Twilight Zone's most thought-provoking installments.

Spoiler alert: this week we're analyzing the Twilight Zone episode “Long Distance Call.” Billy, played by Twilight Zone royalty Bill Mumy, loves his grandmother, and she loves him right back. But, somewhere along the way, grandma's affection began to morph into a controlling obsession. When grandma passes away, it feels like Billy will never see her again–or will he? The problem for Billy's parents is not a matter of will they see each other again, but how soon. On this episode of KOI: A Twilight Zone Show, we're going to be discussing whether or not we can label grandma as evil or a victim of her circumstances; we'll ask the question: why exactly does Billy come back?; and I'll reveal my moment of awe, some thoughts on why it's okay for people to be mad at us sometimes. So, grab your keys, and let's open up this door to the fifth dimension. Want to support the KOI show, get extra content, and give money to two awesome charities at the same time?

Between 1081 and 1903, roughly 20 Japanese Buddhist monks voluntarily endured a grueling three-year process of starvation and isolation — sealing themselves alive inside stone tombs in pursuit of becoming Buddha in their own bodies.*No AI Voices Are Used In The Narration Of This Podcast*Take the Weird Darkness Survey: https://take.supersurvey.com/QGZCRXPVSIN THIS EPISODE: One of the greatest monsters ever to be brought to the screen was The Mummy, portrayed by Boris Karloff. We have, of course, seen numerous recreations of the creature since the original Universal film, but still, the image is grotesque and frightening no matter the incarnation. To see a mummy in real-life is that much more shocking. But real fear… real terror… would be if you yourself were to be mummified… while still alive. (To Be Mummified Alive) *** In the days that followed the rescue of 11-year-old Terry Jo Duperrault from the wreckage of the yacht called the Bluebelle, it would became clear that a storm hadn't destroyed the ship, as the previously-rescued captain, Julian A. Harvey, had said earlier. A storm hadn't killed everyone aboard… Harvey himself had. (The Final Voyage of the Bluebelle) *** When a loved one passes away, we sometimes wish we could speak to them one last time. Some people report they received phone calls or voicemails they believe are from their deceased loved ones. Sometimes they come through as eerie otherworldly static, while other times the ghostly caller is able to communicate one last message. We'll share a few true stories from people who have received phone calls from the beyond. (Phone Calls From Beyond The Grave) *** If you buy a furnished home and move the furniture to clean the floor – and the furniture moves back on its own – you can be pretty sure you've just moved into a haunted house. That's exactly what one family in Rockford, Illinois found out. (A Haunting on School Street) *** And I'll end the episode with the story that I began it with – a short story by Louisa May Alcott called “Lost in a Pyramid”… or “The Mummy's Curse”. A story that went pretty much unnoticed when it was originally published in 1869, but has had somewhat become undead since 1998 when it was rediscovered and is now considered an influential example of early “mummy's curse” narratives.CHAPTERS & TIME STAMPS (All Times Approximate)…00:00:00.000 = Short Message00:00:20.684 = The Foreboding00:01:41.062 = Show Open00:04:41.066 = The Final Voyage of the Bluebelle00:18:32.491 = Phone Calls From Beyond the Grave ***00:36:53.017 = A Haunting On School Street ***00:43:39.779 = To Be Mummified Alive00:50:44.908 = The Mummy's Curse (Lost in a Pyramid) – fictional story ***01:16:00.096 = Show Close*** = Begins immediately after inserted ad breakHELPFUL LINKS & RESOURCES…https://WeirdDarkness.com/STORE = Tees, Mugs, Socks, Hoodies, Totes, Hats, Kidswear & Morehttps://WeirdDarkness.com/HOPE = Hope For Depression or Thoughts of Self-Harmhttps://WeirdDarkness.com/NEWSLETTER = In-Depth Articles, Memes, Weird DarkNEWS, Videos & Morehttps://WeirdDarkness.com/AUDIOBOOKS = FREE Audiobooks Narrated By Darren Marlar SOURCES and RESOURCES:“The Final Voyage of the Bluebelle” by Lucia for The Ghost In My Machine: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/23utyhja“Phone Calls From Beyond the Grave” by Amanda Ashley for Graveyard Shift: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/7bw36uh4“A Haunting on School Street” by Kathi Kresol for Haunted Rockford: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/s3c76yeb“To Be Mummified Alive' by Bipin Dimri for Historic Mysteries: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/j89cukfe“The Mummy's Curse/Lost In a Pyramid” by Louisa May Alcott: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/pwd9h3cb=====(Over time links may become invalid, disappear, or have different content.

Is paradise really paradise? Or is it something far more unsettling? In this episode of The Twilight Zone, Chris and Gerry dive deep into "A Nice Place to Visit" (1960) - one of the series' most deliciously ironic morality tales. We break down the episode's unforgettable twist, the performance of Larry Blyden as Rocky Valentine, and how Rod Serling crafts a deceptively simple afterlife fantasy into a chilling existential punchline. Is this episode about greed? Free will? The danger of getting everything you want? Join us as we explore themes, symbolism, behind-the-scene details, and why this fan-favorite episode remains one of the most talked-about entries in the series. Step into the Fifth Dimension but read the fine print first.

One of the New York Times' 10 best books of 2025, Angel Down is a World War I story told as one continuous sentence, which vividly portrays the horrors of that conflict. Author Daniel Kraus is no stranger to horror. Growing up in Fairfield, he would watch horror movies like Night of the Living Dead and episodes of The Twilight Zone as a five year old with his mom. Kraus joins this episode to talk about his horror and Iowa roots, Angel Down, which is development for a film adaptation, and his 2023 novel Whalefall, whose film adaptation is to be released later this fall.

Young women hired to paint watch dials with radium were told the glowing substance was harmless — even as their jaws crumbled and their bones slowly turned to dust from the inside out.*No AI Voices Are Used In The Narration Of This Podcast*IN THIS EPISODE: During World War I, hundreds of young women went to work in clock factories, painting watch dials with luminous radium paint. But after the girls — who literally glowed in the dark after their shifts — began to experience gruesome side effects, they began a race-against-time fight for justice that would forever change US labor laws. (The Radium Ghost Girls) *** A man is forewarned about a traffic accident that probably would have killed him. Was it a guardian angel, or is there another explanation? (The Phantom's Fatal Forewarning) *** While the search for extraterrestrial life here in this universe is complicated enough, the problem becomes even murkier when you account for the multiverse theory. Could an alternate universe or dimension still be habitable by humans? (Is It Possible To Live In A Parallel Universe?) *** It has been proven that the Nazis were horrible war criminals and not only did some cruel and inhuman things to their prisoners, but even dove into the supernatural and paranormal in the hopes of turning the tide of the war in their favor. But I'm guessing you've not hear about how the Nazis used Bigfoot to further their plans, have you?

For centuries and across nearly every culture on earth, enormous black dogs with glowing red eyes have appeared to the living as omens of death — and the people who dismissed the legend rarely lived long enough to regret it.*No AI Voices Are Used In The Narration Of This Podcast*IN THIS EPISODE: One of our Weirdo family members has asked if I wouldn't consider doing an episode on man's best friend – but as this is Weird Darkness I couldn't very well just pull a bunch of stories of dogs saving lives of lost children, or walking hundreds of miles back to their families after being left behind on a trip, or solving a crime by sniffing out drugs in an airport. So in this episode we're talking about dogs of the supernatural kind – the ghostly dogs, the specters and phantoms in canine form. HELPFUL LINKS & RESOURCES…https://WeirdDarkness.com/STORE = Tees, Mugs, Socks, Hoodies, Totes, Hats, Kidswear & Morehttps://WeirdDarkness.com/HOPE = Hope For Depression or Thoughts of Self-Harmhttps://WeirdDarkness.com/NEWSLETTER = In-Depth Articles, Memes, Weird DarkNEWS, Videos & Morehttps://WeirdDarkness.com/AUDIOBOOKS = FREE Audiobooks Narrated By Darren Marlar SOURCES and RESOURCES:“Ghostly Dogs and Phantom Hounds” from LookAndLearn.com: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/bbnfdtyc, Anomalien.com: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/xznp7j4, Ancient-Origins.net: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/vavhruuj, TransCeltic.com: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/d8s3mhhd, and MysteriousBritain.co.uk: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/2cwk3kxr, https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/f385mrjm=====(Over time links may become invalid, disappear, or have different content.

The Shelton brothers rose from Wayne County farm boys to run one of the most powerful criminal empires in Illinois history — defying the Chicago Outfit, surviving ambushes, and collecting enemies until the bullets finally caught up with them, though the killers were never found, and at least one of the brothers apparently never left the bar where he died.*No AI Voices Are Used In The Narration Of This Podcast*IN THIS EPISODE: On July 26, 1948, infamous Illinois gangster Bernie Shelton – by then acting leader of the Shelton Brothers gang – was shot to death at the Parkway Tavern, a roadhouse that he owned outside of Peoria.

In the early morning hours of April 17, 1966, five law enforcement officers from four different agencies watched in disbelief as a massive, glowing, football-shaped craft silently hovered over a Pennsylvania shopping center parking lot — the same object two Ohio sheriff's deputies had just chased at speeds exceeding 100 mph across 86 miles of highway. When the Air Force investigated, they had a simple explanation: the officers had been chasing the planet Venus.*No AI Voices Are Used In The Narration Of This Podcast*IN THIS EPISODE: Some believe them to be ghosts, others feel they are creatures or even humans from a different dimension. Still others believe they are demonic entities. Whatever the truth about what they are, the one thing everyone agrees about is that an encounter with a shadow person is undeniably terrifying. (Terrifying True Stories Of Shadow People) *** The townsfolk of Beaver County, Pennsylvania saw something very strange in 1966 – and now, so many decades later, it's just as much of a mystery as it was the day the encounter occurred. (The Unsolved Sighting in 1966) *** Some are beloved favorites like “The Wizard of Oz”, others you may never have seen, like Atuk. Some are dark in tone like “Poltergeist”, or heroic like the first Superman movie starring Christopher Reeve. But one thing all of these films and the others I'll share in this episode have in common is that they are all supposedly cursed.
