    In this forty-third installment of fictional horror written and narrated by Dan Cummins, we head back to 1985, when ten year-old Ryan Mellard and three friends went trick-or-treating for the first time without parental supervision. When they passed by The Dead House, a site  supposedly haunted by the ghost of a woman who used to live there, they dared Ryan to enter. And what he found inside changed him forever.

    The Bangkok Ghost Tower

    Both of Dan's stories come from Thailand. Thailand has a LOT of supernatural stories!  We begin in Bangkok where we explore an abandoned and supposedly haunted skyscraper.  Then, we’ll head to one of Thailand’s biggest college campuses, Chiang Mai University, to examine a few of the resident spirits there. And learn a bit about the relationship between Thai culture and the spirit world along the way.  Then, Lynze has three very different stories this week. We begin in a hospital with a patient who raises hell in life... and maybe in death. Then, we head to Nevada to hear one persons harrowing tale of being chased in the dark. We wrap up this week in Sweden where a young man hopes to get lucky with a new love interest but goes home with something far more interesting!  Scared To Death LIVE! 5th Annual Halloween Show!  https://www.moment.co/scaredtodeath/scaredtodeath-true-tales-of-hallows-eve-5 Do you want to get all of our episodes a WEEK early, ad free?
