Ep 244: Your True Halloween Stories Part 2

That’s how a scary story works. It echoes some ancient fear. It re-creates some forgotten terror. Something we’d like to think we’ve grown beyond. But it can still scare us to tears. It’s something you’d hoped was healed.
— American journalist and author Chuck Palahniuk
 

Description:

As we continue with Part Two of our Halloween series featuring our listeners' true accounts, tonight's episode presents another three eerie tales of the supernatural. The first story tells of a haunted college rooming house with a spirit fond of movie catchphrases. And it may have the power to compel humans to deliver poignant messages. Our second interview details a forceful presence with the ability to invade your dreams and physically send you to a dark portal of a waking nightmare. Our final story is about a random encounter with... well, let's just say, one of the most terrifying entities the audience hopes they never meet. The twist here is that whatever this thing is, it wasn't content to let you merely run away.

Send us your scariest true stories for Halloween! 🎃👻👽😈😱

We’re looking for the scariest, spooky true stories you know, and we’re asking you to write them out and send them to us via email at astonishingcontact@gmail.com. Specifically looking for stories that fit in the vein of our show – ghosts, hauntings, cryptids, strange encounters, and UFOs are all in play. Scary is the theme. The story should have a little “meat” to it, meaning we’re looking for impactful anecdotes. We’ll feature the most chilling for our Halloween episodes, but if your story doesn’t make it this time, don’t fret, we’ll keep it on file! Thanks!
