There is a place that is spoken about only in whispers a dark area that spawns the beginnings of urban legends a place where anything can happen and usually does.

During the light of day it hides just outside of you but when the sun goes down spirits creatures of the night roam free and things do go bump in the night.

It is in every state and every country and there is no escaping it no matter how safe you view behind your locked doors and latched windows.

So we invite you to turn down the lights and turn up your radio while we join Dave Schrader and Tim Dennis your hosts on a journey into the darkness on the edge of town.

Good evening and welcome back to the darkness on the edge of town paranormal radio show. I appreciate you tuning in and being here with us this evening.

I'd like to welcome to the show Mr. Tom Netspan. Good evening Tom.

Hey, good evening. Well, I guess I could say good night. It's about that time.

Thanks a lot for joining us Tom. We had a great chance to meet you out at the last Stanley event that we had out there.

Yeah, that was an awesome event.

Very much. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Yeah, it was a fun community and just a neat chance to get out there and meet a bunch of different people that are into the paranormal, wasn't it?

Yeah, I mean, it was just more than any of us ever really expected to.

Yeah, I get that a lot. Not many people expect much from me.

Well, it was really, really great. I mean, my team members, they're all still talking about it. Everybody was great.

And a couple of them were going to be going back to the March revisit there. Oh, great.
