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.

Something that I am very careful about is that I make sure to carry protection stones around

with me, and I will sage myself and any visitors to my tower of solitude.

So why? Why would someone do that? Because there are a lot of forces in this world that

we can't see, but they could see us and decide that they want to play with us for a while.

So always be careful, stay vigilant, be protected. Because if not, you'll leave yourself phone

horrible to the supernatural and sometimes inhumane energies around you, they'll catch your scent

and snuff you out.

First, know where is safe, not even a library. Next, be wary of those asking for a ride.

After that, a twisted game of pretend. And finally, we'll settle in for a spooky bedtime

story from Grandma.

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 snarled.

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 somethingscaryatsnarl.com. And if you'd like to support the show and

receive bonus content, consider joining our Patreon. Our patrons play a huge role in keeping

the show running every single week. For more information on how you can help the show

So, one here's something scary.

The haunted library.
