Hey, y'all, it's Heather. Before we kick off this episode, I want to share something very close to our hearts right now. Like so many of you, Christy and I have been following the devastating wildfires unfolding in California. The human toll, the loss of homes, wildlife, landscapes is all staggering. And our hearts go out to everyone affected. And we know that so many of you are feeling the way we are, which is you want to help,

but you're not sure how.

But we've decided to take action.

We're inviting you to join us.

Starting today, 100% of all profits from our merch sales at sinisterhood.com slash shop will go

directly to wildfire relief efforts.

This means every shirt, sticker, tote, whatever you

buy will support critical services, providing shelter, food, and support for those who've lost

everything. The donations will go to recovery and relief efforts. We'll also be matching them like we did

for Hurricane Helene. Thanks to you, we were able to donate over $6,000 to the North Carolina

Community Foundation Disaster Relief Fund.

With your help, we hope to do the same for folks in California. You can also pitch in

directly. We'll share a list of ways to help in the episode description. We know it's easy to

feel helpless in the face of such destruction, but we believe in the power of community, compassion,

and taking even small steps toward making a difference.

Together, we can help bring relief and a little bit of hope to those who need it most right now.

Thank you so much for listening, for caring, and for being part of this community.

We'll continue to share updates and more ways to help as we find them.

And as always, we're so grateful to have you here with us.

And with that, here's the show.

A bump in the night, your heart fills with dread, probably a murder of who wants you dead.

It could be a ghost
