The Devil Of Glenluce
Dan offers an old story from the small town of Glenluce, Scotland, where a family was tormented by the Devil himself in the late 17th century. After that, we head to Baltimore, Maryland to examine a poltergeist case from 1960. Were Edgar Jones, his wife, son-in-law, daughter, and grandson terrorized by a poltergeist? Lynze will take us on an emotional roller coaster this week! Her haunted house story leaves us asking, once again, about where mental health and the paranormal intersect. Then, a stunning story about the loss of a friend and her sweet goodbyes. Lastly, possibly one of the best alien encounters we have ever shared here!

The paranormal comes to life as husband-wife duo Dan Cummins (acclaimed standup comedian and true horror fan) and Lynze Cummins (costume and wardrobe stylist for numerous film and television productions) share terrifying stories that will leave you sleeping with the lights on. Dan’s goal? To scare Lynze with creepy accounts of demonic possession, shadow people, and other eerie phenomena. And when he’s done, Lynze fights back with chilling fan-submitted tales of true horror. Together, they explore the darkest corners of the web, dusty old books, and even their own eerie surroundings—a studio filled with occult objects and located right next to a cemetery. Don’t forget to check out the mini-series Nightmare Fuel, airing on this feed the first and third Friday of every month, where Dan narrates a short piece of original horror fiction.
