Summary

It’s Halloween Week, and we’re starting things off with the Curse of Fame! Why do fans believe that popular movies, musicians, and even songs are cursed? Kevin Eustace, host of the “We Need To Talk About Ghosts” podcast, returns to share weird stories and circumstances surrounding movies like “The Exorcist,” “The Omen,” and “Rosemary’s Baby.” He explains the links between the Manson Family murders, The Beatles, and Mia Farrow, the weird connection between John Lennon and the number 9, why many believe Lennon and Robert Johnson both sold their souls to the devil, and what happened to Eric Clapton, the Allman Brothers Band, Fleetwood Mac, and Buddy Holly that proves they’re cursed. Plus, hear the creepy story of the Hungarian Suicide Song and how it relates to both Mariah Carey and Black Sabbath, the mysterious disappearance of Iron Butterfly’s Philip Taylor Kramer, and the bad luck surrounding Harry Nilsson that led many to believe he was cursed too.
