Hello, my dark darlings. I'm Marquia, 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.

Today is February 1st, the first day of Black History Month. Over the course of this month, I'll be sharing with you terrifying tales,

featuring some incredible black horror writers, along with tales inspired from submissions.

As I often say, horror is life. And here is something scary, we embrace passing that torch

through different cultures and point of views. From famous

urban legends to anecdotes told around the campfire, continue your journey with me into 2022.

First, desperate times call for desperate measures, followed by tortured spirits.

Then danger waiting at your door.

Finally, in our featured story, a tale of Candyman, a horrific urban legend.

I receive hundreds of creepy story submissions every single week, and of those the scariest

ones make it into our podcast, along with the story that we've chosen to animate and post over

at YouTube.com slash snarl. 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 our Patreon.

As a patron, not only can you help the show

and see ad-free episodes,

but you can also be a part of the horror

and hear your name featured in one of our podcasts

or weekly video stories.
