Episode description

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING.

Dan shares two awesome tales this week. The first is set just outside the little Eastern Oregon city of La Grande. We'll learn about the allegedly haunted Hot Lake Springs Hotel and a unique modern encounter tale from a journal left for guests to write about their stay. And then, we'll learn what the wonderful actress and author Carrie Fisher had to say about the paranormal before she passed away too soon in 2016. Lynze has two incredible stories! Her first explores a family history of a possible curse and then the modern haunted house encounters of some people unrelated to the family. In her last story, get the Kleenex, this one will get you in the feels. A great story of poltergeist activity that leads a mom to some valuable information about her kid.

Patreon Monthly Donation: As is our tradition here at Bad Magic, Dan and I are hosting the Bad Magic Giving Tree. If you have been keeping up, you already know that sign-ups happened a few weeks ago, but we are still collecting additional support for this community project! If you are able to help build up the fund for the giving tree, you can go to amazon.com and purchase a gift card that will be matched, dollar for dollar, up to 13K by Dan and I to help 30 families this holiday season. The Giving Tree Fund is still open and will remain open until mid-December. If you purchase a gift card, the important thing you need to know is where to send it! Enter GIVINGTREE2023@BADMAGICPRODUCTIONS.COM as the recipient address!

Standup: If you want to see a very different side of Dan than you see here and possibly see Lynze in the crowd (she is always happy to say HI!), get on over to dancummins.tv for ticket links to shows. You can find Dan in Virginia Beach! A reminder that Dan is not touring in 2024, so this is your last chance to see him!

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."
