Hello, my dark darlings. I'm Marquia, and this is the Something Scary podcast. To our veteran listeners and those voyaging into the dark with us for the first time, welcome. Enjoy your upcoming holiday season with family and friends. I hope you're safe and happy, whether you end up around a fireplace, are vacationing near the water. Personally,

I don't have a fear of water, but I understand where that fear can come from. It's both the fear of the

unknown and the known at the same time. Those dark depths teeming with the water-based life that you've

heard about are seen on National Geographic or Shark Week.

It always makes me think of something my cousin said once on a trip to the beach in Florida.

I don't know for sure what's in there, but I know that it won't be me.

Still waters run deep with all sorts of trouble.

While insects buzz over ponds, strange creatures

swim beneath the surface. Today, we travel all across the globe to discover the evil

treading within malevolent waters. First, we'll go fishing in Bangladesh while keeping our

eye out for any gin. Next, we'll go fishing in Bangladesh while keeping our eye out for any gin.

Next, we'll investigate the waters near our house in India and discover something sinister.

After that, we'll follow a strange figure in Barbados.

And finally, we'll go to summer camp and have some terrifying dreams about the local lake.

We 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 snarled.

Then I read a few more stories for the podcast.
