Welcome back to the peripheral.

I keep saying sorry every time I put out an episode,

but I'm really putting these out as fast as humanly possible.

So sorry, not sorry, you're getting the content as fast as possible.

A couple of announcements.

I released a lost episode on my Patreon.

So all my Patreon subscribers, thank you.

I can't tell you how much I love you.

I hope you enjoyed that story from Millie.

Also, I recently did an interview on The Curiosity Hour podcast.

Thank you, Dan and Tommy, for allowing me to come on your show. It was a fun interview. I did it

from my car in the middle of a parking lot. A security guard or off-duty cop ended up knocking

on my window towards the end of the interview.

It was pretty exciting. This month, I interviewed more people than I've ever interviewed in my life.

I wish I had someone to reply to all my messages and emails. I'm sorry. I'm terrible at it sometimes.

I just don't have enough time in the day. So this is my Halloween episode. I'm sorry. I'm terrible at it sometimes. I just don't have enough time in the day.

So this is my Halloween episode. I'm going for something different this year.

Most of the scary stories are not paranormal.

They are frightening because people thought they were going to die.

That's all the more detail I'm going to give for now.

We're just going to jump right in.

This first story is from Mark.
