Hi, Aadings. This is the Something Scary Podcast. I'm your Aote Sapphire. Today's stories

are about the ghosts of war. We'll be traveling to haunted battlefields and communicating

with soldiers who haven't left our earthly plane. I receive hundreds of amazing story submissions

every single week. As always, the first story you hear is one that I've chosen to animate

email at somethingscary at snarled.com. Hey, I'm Sapphire.
