Hi, witches, I'm Blair Bathory, and this is the Something Scary podcast. Thank you so much for being here, whether this is your first time or you're one of the brave souls who join us every week.

Sometimes on the longest night of the year, when the dark seems to stretch forever, something

dark and sinister stirs in the shadows.

The cold is biting and sharp, and the silence is thick with dread.

On the night of the winter solstice, before the sun rises, terrible things awaken, waiting for the

light to return, if it ever does. First, a bell calls the dead, followed by the snow hides

more than secrets. Finally, in our last story, she waits in the dark. Before we get to our stories, I wanted to ask if you had checked out our brand new Something Scary Patreon Storyteller experience.

Now you can dive even deeper into the eerie and mysterious with exclusive perks just for our storyteller fans.

By joining this new Patreon tier, you'll unlock access to our monthly film club live stream with me,

where we discuss horror films chosen by you.

After each live stream, you'll also get exclusive behind-the-scenes access

with a Q&A to answer your burning questions.

But that's not all.

Storyteller Experience members will also enjoy a 20% discount on something scary merch

and a chance to collaborate with our next spine-chilling story.

Together, we'll create a terrifying tale that might just end up on the podcast.

It's our way of saying thank you for being a part of this amazing community

and keeping the spooky spirit alive all year round.
