Accidents will happen. It seems no matter how hard we all try, things just sometimes have a way of getting mixed up. Shoes go on the wrong feet. The right key goes into the wrong lock. And a live person gets buried, even though they're not dead. It happened, Dear Guest, and more than once. Now, please have a seat and enjoy our special blend of Gravedigger's tea... and I'll tell you all about this kind of accident...twice.

Welcome, Dear Guest! Please take your seat for a stone-cold treat! Tonight, we are Hellbent on sharing the eerie story of Murder Stones. These morbid, mournful monuments are strewn across the United Kingdom and are meant to mark the spot of many a murder! Join us for a triple telling of ghastly bump-offs, and how one murder stone inspired a second...in honor of the murderers!

Welcome Back, Spooky Lovelies! We think there's no better atmosphere to begin our NEW SEASON than a swamp! Or better yet, to have a nice visit with Swamp Witches! First we'll have an array of swamp monsters, then we'll feature glorious Native American Owl Witches, a cursing Voodoo Swamp Witch, and a Swamp-dwelling Witch who transformed herself into a tree! Our reading tonight is proudly sponsored by Grimm's Grocer's Moonlight Madness Sale. Grab your waders and join us...if you dare...

Let us visit the long dead. Let us travel beneath the bustling streets where they dwell. We believe the 16th-century Capuchin Monks had the right idea! Don't bury your dead and forget them. Place them in tunnels and dress them up in their best duds, then invite everyone to visit them, forever! Tonight, we return to our stomping grounds: a beautifully dreary catacomb with 8,000 dead to gaze upon. One... is rumored to open and close her eyes. Join us below!
