It's easy to disappear into your own bubble when you're out and about,

whether you're lost in your thoughts or lost in nature.

The last thing on your mind is the danger of trains at level crossings.

Beware the bubble, stay aware, take care, and help us keep you safe at level crossings.

Hello my dark darlings, I'm Arquia.

In this is the Something Scary Podcast.

To our veteran listeners and those voyaging into the dark with us for the first time,

welcome.

It's comforting to imagine killers behind bars, but what if they get loose?

Some could be stalking around your neighborhood, or even be that dark shadow outside your window.

Today's stories all talk about killers, close to home.

First, we'll watch some live coverage of a murderer gone loose.

Next, we'll order some odd tasting ice cream from a disgruntled employee.

After that, we'll take a dip in the pool at a roadside bed in breakfast.

And finally, we'll visit a small town and get in deep with some bad kids.

I receive hundreds of creepy story submissions every single week.

As always, the first story you hear is one that we've chosen to animate and post over at youtube.com slash snorl.

Then, I read a few more stories for the podcast.

If you have a tale you're dying to share, send me an email at somethingscary at snorl.com.
