Hi, I'm Blair Bathory, 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. Things always seem to go awry when Mercury is in retrograde, and today happens to be the start of that shift in the planets.

It's an excuse for people to be erratic, emotional, and driven to do terrible things.

It's also a time when the supernatural creeps into our lives just to mess with us.

As if that wasn't bad enough, this week will have a total lunar eclipse,

also known as a blood moon. So this is a warning to all my listeners. Beware of the dark.

First, a death wish, followed by know thy neighbor or suffer.

Then, cards of misfortune.

Finally, in our featured story, The Monster Strikes Again.

We receive hundreds of creepy story submissions every single week, and of those,

the scariest ones make it into our podcasts, along with the story that we've chosen to animate and post over at YouTube.com slash snarled. If you have a tale you're dying to share,

send me an email at something scary at snarled.com. If you'd like to support something scary,

you help the show and see ad-free episodes, but you can also be a part of the horror and hear

Blood Moon.

Many haunted houses can be found in Harrisville, Rhode Island, including the house that

inspired the conjuring. But one of these legends is still

wreaking havoc there today, and this is the story inspired by Anonymous. Thank you to our Patreon,

Lucy L, whose name we use in this story. Lucy had always been drawn to dark magic.

As a child, she played with tarot cards and crystals.

By the time she reached college, she was a full goth, obsessed with underground occult organizations.
