Snap Judgment Presents: Spooked Snap Judgment

Sometimes the spirits we encounter are benevolent and kind — like guardian angels. And sometimes, they wait, and watch, and wish us ill.

STORIES

Eunice

Tiffany’s keeps waking up in the middle of the night to the sound of someone walking around her room. Finally, one night, a woman materializes right in front of her, wearing the snazziest business casual attire she’s ever seen. But there’s one problem: this woman is a ghost.

Thank you, Tiffany, for sharing your story with Spooked!

Produced by Anne Ford, original score by Daniel Riera

Brick and Mortal

Rhea is excited to visit her mom and dad, who have just bought a brand-new cabin in the woods. The house seems great, except Rhea keeps seeing a figure out of the corner of her eye: a woman, standing in the woods, staring at her.

Thanks, Rhea, for sharing your story with us!

Traditional-Filipino-tattoo practitioner, Lane Wilcken, is never scared when ancestral spirits visit during tattoo sessions. He knows that those spirits, the ones that are just stopping by, aren’t the ones you have to worry about.

Thank you, Lane Wilcken, for sharing your story with us! Lane wrote the book on traditional Filipino tattooing — Filipino Tattoos: Ancient to Modern. Today, Lane is one of only twenty people in the world who practice Filipino tattooing in its traditional form.

Some folks live in haunted houses. The ghosts get cozy, they move in and they don’t move out. But what if your whole neighborhood is haunted?

Thank you so much, Caroline Liu, for sharing your story with us!

Things can seem to creep and lurk in the dark — especially when you’re on duty.
