We love that Friday the 13th falls in October this year, our spookiest month. Statistically this is actually very rare. As others are gearing up for playful movie nights and superstitious tradition, we know the truth. We must be on the lookout for the darker side of Friday the 13th. The date that calls for the supernatural to reveal itself. A date that can make rational humans go insane. A time when nefarious spirits come out to do their evil bidding. A night that can be so unlucky, it just might kill you. First, the sins of my mother Followed by a bad influence Then, an unlucky rabbit’s foot Finally in our featured story, a deadly past Thank you to this episode's sponsors! • Füm - Join Füm in accelerating humanity's breakup from destructive habits by picking up the Journey Pack today.
