Shownotes Transcript

A man in his 40s has a recollection of a very strange incident from his childhood but only recalls it after his brother passes away. Listen as Dan unfolds this creepy childhood tale. Then we visit a poltergeist case from Columbus, Ohio that made national headlines back in 1984. The story of Tina Resch and the so-called Columbus Poltergeist. After Dan's stories, Lynze gives us a little bit lighter scares but are super fun and fascinating. First, the Hat Man and how one might manifest him. Then, she shares about an attachment that seems to be shared by three family members.

Opening Sumerian protection spell (adapted):

"Whether thou art a ghost that hath come from the earth, or a phantom of night that hath no home… or one that lieth dead in the desert… or a ghost unburied… or a demon or a ghoul… Whatever thou be until thou art removed… thou shalt find here no water to drink… Thou shalt not stretch forth thy hand to our own… Into our house enter thou not. Through our fence, breakthrough thou not… we are protected though we may be frightened. Our life you may not steal, though we may feel SCARED TO DEATH."
