    Happy Place

    Random Acts of Weirdness is BACK! Back just in time for spooky season, listen to this thrilling true-life story from host Jess Maiuro. What begins as a happy "Ferris Bueller Day" between best friends grows sinister as the waves crash on the shore and an ominous stranger comes too close for comfort. Listener Note: The original working title for what we now know as "Random Acts of Weirdness" was "Sinister Stay." Pulled this one out of the archives, so in the intro/outro expect to hear reference to it. Didn't want to cause any confusion! There is also a brief mention of self-harm.
