A Dark Rebirth

Dan Cummins, Lynze Cummins
About this episode

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. 

We’ll cover a bunch of paranormal Gamecock lore… aka lore from The University of South Carolina. We’ve also added an alleged modern paranormal encounter said to have taken place in the university’s Longstreet Theatre. Then we meet a traveling nurse who claims to have been terrorized by a strange, seemingly sentient entity in his short term rental in Colton, California, just outside of Riverside. How dangerous can some black mold be? A story that will make you scratch your head is next. How can two women who have nothing in common except for dating the same man, 4 years apart, experience the exact some paranormal entity in said man's parents home? Lastly, a ghost on a mission to save her still living family-  a sweet tale to wrap it up!

Special Segment: Over the years, we have become huge advocates of mental health. It’s something each and every one of us deals with. As we became more vocal about our own journeys so have you! The more the emails rolled in, the more responsibility we began to feel. That has lead us to partner with BetterHelp for the occasional special segment, “Don’t Be Scared To Ask For Help” where we will share some insight and advice given to us by a licensed therapist. And all of the questions we asked were submitted by listeners. Thank you for doing that! That segment will be at the very end of today’s episode.

 This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp. Thank you to Courtney Cope, Principal Clinical Operations Manager and David Yadush, Senior Clinical Operations Manager at BetterHelp.

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."
