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. So, it's just about

Valentine's Day when you're listening to this. I've never been extremely serious about this particular romantic holiday.

I haven't been that skeptical about it either.

Let's just say I have a dark sense of humor with it.

Thus, this podcast will be a little bit on the comedic side.

Lend me your ears and give me your hearts.

It's a romantic holiday that's filled with delicious chocolate hearts,

teddy bears waiting to be possessed, and the crushing power of love.

Whether you're jones in for love or need no one at all, it's a something scary, bloody

Valentine call.

First there's love, found under mysterious circumstances.

Next, there's mobile dating, a dangerous game of catfish and mouse.

After that, dark magic tests the bonds of lovers true.

And finally, the loneliest being will stop at nothing to win the object of their desire.

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 something scary at snarl.com. And if you'd like to
