Ask yourself what's scarier, a nightmare or the truth that inspired it.

Hello everyone, it's Maddie.

With spooky season upon us, I'm thrilled to introduce you to a new podcast that you are going to love.

It's called Twisted Tales,

hosted by artist, poet, creator and horror queen Heidi Wong. Every Monday, Heidi takes you deep

into the true stories behind horror's biggest legends. From haunted dolls to cursed houses,

each episode of Twisted Tales is perfect for late-night

scares and daytime frights. Revealing the disturbing real-life events that inspired the world's

most terrifying blockbusters, and the ones too twisted to make it onto screen. Some stories

are stranger than fiction. These are darker. I'm excited to share a special

preview with you now. If you like what you hear, follow Twisted Tales with Heidi Wong on Apple Podcasts,

Spotify, Amazon Music, or wherever you listen, so that you can get even more now. We'll also

include a link to the show in the description of this episode.

And remember, reality is the real horror.

This is Crime House.

Music This is Crimehouse. An old farmhouse with dark secrets, a doll that attacks you in your sleep.

If you love horror movies, this might sound familiar, but behind the films, it's all too real.
