IN THIS EPISODE: What one young boy was told were nightmares, are later to be discovered by his grandmother as a real ghost! *** A woman wakes up to a ghost’s impression on her arm. *** Japan has a ghost that brings good luck. *** Finding the perfect apartment becomes an imperfect nightmare. *** A woman’s husband leans down to kiss her – but it’s not her husband’s face that she sees. *** A woman explains why she is deathly afraid of garden gnomes. *** At the Marion cemetery in Ohio there is giant sphere that moves without any apparent reason. How is it possible? What mysterious force is causing the ball’s unexplained motion? (Mystery of the Giant Moving Sphere at Marion Cemetery in Ohio) *** The Handmaid's Tale has found new life as a TV series on Hulu… but did you know that it was a woman accused of witchcraft that inspired the story? It’s the true, disturbing tale of Mary Webster. (The Alleged Witch That Inspired ‘The Handmaid's Tale’) *** Imaginary friends. Are they simply pretend playmates? Or something more sinister? (5 Creepy Tales of Imaginary Friends) *** If you walk through a house asking questions of the dead – don’t be surprised if they respond. (The Haunted House That Gives Me the Heebie Jeebies) *** And many more true tales – plus, I end with the CreepyPasta, “Psychosis”!
