Welcome to Smoshmouth. I'm Shane. And I'm Amanda. And this is our spooky Halloween episode.

As of airing this, it is October 30th. Oh my god, tonight before. All Hallows Eve, the

most evil day of the year. It's so evil. But today, we are going to be doing something

that a lot of you asked for a while ago, which is we're going to read creepy stories from the

internet. Some of my favorites, these are known as creepypastas. Have you have you heard of

creepypasta. And that story was all over the place. There's one that is my personal favorite that

will be reading later called Candle Cove, which I love. Very scary. I've got several here. And we'll

be getting into them. But first, I wanted to talk, I want to also talk on this episode about creepy stuff.

And I first question I have right off the bat is do you believe in ghosts? 100%. Yeah. I'm from Massachusetts.

I feel like Massachusetts is spooky. Like it's got very, very old homes, old structures that have

like never been touched. Families of generations have lived there never like knocked them down or
