Hello, my dark darlings. I'm Markia, and this is the Something Scary podcast. To our veteran listeners and those just voyaging into the dark with us for the first time, welcome. From the dead who haunt your house to revenge exacted on bullies who provoke, we have brought you 200 podcasts full of terrors.

And here at something scary,

we can't wait to keep giving you those chills

for another 200 episodes of horror.

YouTube.com slash snarled. If you have a tale you're dying to share, send me an email at

something scary at snarl.com. If you'd like to support something scary, then consider joining
