Hey folks, Aaron here. Welcome back to another edition of Deeper Lour, a bonus episode that's

designed to serve as a topical guide to the most recent episode of lore. In this short bonus episode,

I'll dig into our vast 10-year archive and point out some old episodes that fit well with this

week's newest. The hope is that you can keep this spooky feeling going into the

weekend, putting a handful of old episodes into a new, more powerful context. So let's get started,

shall we? For this week, it's episode 300, bored stiff. And aside from being the 300th episode

of lore, it's also a fascinating topic. We place our hands on the planchette and ask the spirits for

advice. That's right, a whole episode about Ouija board folklore. And this one really hammered home a

powerful message. The public panicked for a very good reason. But it's not the first time that we've

discussed spiritualism and all of its communication trappings. So here are three older episodes that

should pair up nicely with this week's new one. First up, episode 37, passing notes. This is a

classic episode that has a lot of communication between the living and the dead. And let's just

say that the dead didn't have a lot of nice things to say. Be sure to give this

oldie a listen today. Next, download episode 79, locked away. We all know the story of the

Winchester house and the woman who built it, Sarah Winchester, but don't miss these spiritualist

origins to her lifelong mission. The idea was given to her through a medium.

It's definitely worth a revisit.

And finally, there's episode 260, Ghost Writer.

In this more recent episode, we explore the concept of writing books with the help of the spirit world.

Some people use talking boards, and others use different tools entirely.

But the results are just as spooky

as you would imagine, so do check it out. And there you go. Follow up this week's brand new episode
