A man living alone who woke up to what sounded like someone trying to break into his home is in for a paranormal encounter. Then, we head to Vermont, where a quiet morning walk around a fog-covered pond turns into something unsettling. Then, two tales from the same person, separated by twenty five years makes you wonder if this is a paranormal fire warning. Lastly, one of the very best, most undeniable encounter claims we have ever had.

Opening Sumerian protection spell (adapted):

"Whether thou art a ghost that hath come from the earth, or a phantom of night that hath no home… or one that lieth dead in the desert… or a ghost unburied… or a demon or a ghoul… Whatever thou be until thou art removed… thou shalt find here no water to drink… Thou shalt not stretch forth thy hand to our own… Into our house enter thou not. Through our fence, breakthrough thou not… we are protected though we may be frightened. Our life you may not steal, though we may feel SCARED TO DEATH."

Dan has some truly incredible tales this week. We begin in Pennsylvania. After a tense argument, a man reluctantly agrees to take an evening walk with his lifelong best friend through the woods outside their small town. But the deeper they wander into the darkness, the more uncomfortable things get. Next up, a young couple renting an isolated farmhouse in rural Oregon begin experiencing vivid nightmares after moving into their new home. It becomes apparent to them both that these are far from normal dreams. Then Lynze gives us three tales. Her first is a new thing to be afraid of, a Fetch- an Irish folklore about a doppleganger type thing. Then, a young family leaves their brand new home after a few encounters with a ghost or mimic of their daughters. Lastly, a new dad experiences some kind of something trying to watch over his newborn baby and has evidence to prove it!

In this fifty-seventh installment of fictional horror written and narrated by Dan Cummins, we head to Bluewater Falls. A wonderfully scenic mountain resort town with a dark secret involving the charming lake it surrounds. We meet Kate Boyko as she is pulled into a haunted mystery and tries to determine what has happened to numerous members of her family there for generations.
