Hey folks, Aaron here.

Welcome back to another edition of Deeper Lore, a bonus episode that's designed to serve as a topical guide to the most recent episode of lore.

In this short bonus episode, I'm going to dig into our archive of 11 years of topics and point out some old episodes that fit well with this week's newest.

The hope is that you can keep the spooky feeling going well into the weekend, putting a handful of old episodes into a new, more powerful context.

So let's get started, shall we?

So here are three older episodes that should pair up nicely with this week's new one.

First up, episode 42, In the Bag.

This was our very first prison episode, focusing on the history, failings, and ghostly echoes of Eastern State Penitentiary.

Resembling a gothic castle from the outside, this prison delivered some pretty dark events that have left their mark.

Do check it out.

Next, download episode 106, The Collection.
