Trigger Warning: This week's episode includes talk about suicide. If you or someone you know is in need of help, please dial or text 988.
We try our very best to bring light to some very dark topics and places. Siho covers the eerie history and mystery surrounding the Aokigahara forest in Japan that is unfortunately more colloquially known as "The Suicide Forest." Marisa heads over to Indonesia to dive into the dark history that created the hauntings at Lawang Sewu "A Thousand Doors." While the place didn't literally have a thousand doors, it did have plenty of messed up stuff that went on.
