We start this week in New Zealand where a man goes ghost hunting in the supposedly very haunted former Napier Prison. Did he have an intense encounter with building’s most infamous spirit? Then, Dan shares three smaller tales: first involves two people hanging out alone in a park at night, having a very strange, dangerous, and disturbing encounter. Then we get a creepy baby monitor story. And the lastly, a series of confusing and disturbing texts between two people freaks us out! Lynze has her usual two tales this week. The first takes us to the middle of nowhere for a possible UFO encounter with lasting affects. Her second story brings us a haunted house that seems to be trying to tell someone something.
Bad Magic Monthly Donation: This month we have donated $10,600 to Basic Needs, a non profit providing a lifeline to those in need during times of adversity. From barrier free access to food and toiletries to clothing and furniture, Basic Needs offers support to low income families and seniors facing impossible choices, like choosing to pay rent or pay for much needed medication. It’s an awful position to be in for far too many Americans. Basic Needs is doing some truly incredible work in and around Cottage Grove, Minnesota. If you’d like to learn more about what they are doing, please visit basicneedsmn.org

Opening Sumerian protection spell (adapted):
"Whether thou art a ghost that hath come from the earth, or a phantom of night that hath no home… or one that lieth dead in the desert… or a ghost unburied… or a demon or a ghoul… Whatever thou be until thou art removed… thou shalt find here no water to drink… Thou shalt not stretch forth thy hand to our own… Into our house enter thou not. Through our fence, breakthrough thou not… we are protected though we may be frightened. Our life you may not steal, though we may feel SCARED TO DEATH."
