16. Ghostly Chats with Marmaduke, The 1800s Carole Baskin, and The Dyatlov Marshmallow Man
The Nightmare GirlsShow Notes
When we said we were covering some real freaky stories for October, we weren't kidding! Rose couldn't join us for this episode so our good pal Jordan stepped in with more paranormal happenings involving her family and a TERRIFYING experience she had at Spider Gates Cemetery in Leicester, MA. Then Meg tells the horrifying history of what is today the very haunted LaLaurie Mansion in New Orleans, and this is your warning that this story is not for the faint of heart and involves a particularly disgusting use of a wooden spoon. Finally, Anna delves into the weird and disturbing tale of the Dyatlov Pass Incident, which may very well her freakiest conspiracy yet. Seriously, Meg (who is writing this episode description) has not been able to stop thinking about it since the episode was recorded. It's that intense! Grab a snack, a drink, and maybe some sort of security blanket to squeeze because this is one is guaranteed to spook ya!
[CONTENT WARNING: This episode contains graphic descriptions of torture, mutilation, and abuse of enslaved people in the 1800s].

For our Halloween episode this year, we're doing something a little different! As you may know, we all love to write... and we all loveee horror. So this week Rose, Meg, and Anna have written short stories to read aloud for extra spooks and scares. This episode features "A Cryptid In Your Closet???" by Rose Horell; "S'mores" by Meg Brennan; and "More Red" by Anna Schroeder. Happy Halloween!!
Back at it again with another spooky season episode! Meg talks the haunted Myrtles Plantation where there are a lot of spirits who like to make appearances in mirrors and windows. Rose talks Furbies, a really creepy children's toy that may or may not try to kill you in your sleep. And finally, Anna gives us another physics lesson for dummies and chats about portals, which are a very freaky concept. We hope you've been enjoying all the spooks this October, and definitely stick around for a very special episode coming next week!
Hello spooksters and welcome back! In this episode we once again prove we have the same humor as 12-year-old boys and also tell some creepy stories to top it off. Meg covers the horrifying Villisca Axe Murders and the subsequent haunting. Rose talks about Not Deer and their freaky knees. Anna wraps up talking about Ong Shat, sorry, I mean Ong's Hat, a weird abandoned settlement with a truly wild history(?). Buckle in, there's only a couple more weeks until Halloween!
No seriously. If you are at all sensitive to body horror or gore, really stop listening before you get to Anna's topic. This week we're bringing you one of our scariest episodes yet for this spooky season. Rose and Meg pull a switcheroo to talk about black-eyed children/black-eyed kids and get into a bunch of spooky stories. Anna covers the Russian sleep experiments, and Meg gags about it. If you enjoy the spooks, you're in for a treat. If not, well... don't say I didn't warn you. Welcome to spooky season!
HAPPY SPOOKY SEASON! On this very first day of October, we present to you a really fun, special episode guest starring one of our podcast fan favorites (and our very dear friend) Jordan! Join us as we listen to Jordan tell us about a true crime story from a town nearby that is a wild ride from start to finish - our brains are all goop just thinking about it! Stay tuned for more spooky nonsense throughout the month of October! You can find Jordan on Instagram @jaywalker_9 and check out her movie reviewing blog movication9.wordpress.com. Oh, also check out ScreenRant where she sometimes writes super cool articles about fandom favorites!
