A Night At The Clown Motel

Dan Cummins, Lynze Cummins
About this episode

Dan gives us two incredible tales this week. His first brings to life one of Dan's biggest fears: Clowns. Could you handle a night in a haunted, clown themed motel? Then, we are off to Washington DC for a throwback sighting of a dueling ghost.  Then, Lynze wonder if this podcast the problem for one home that seems to be experiencing some kind of haunting? Did we do this?! Then, for Lynze's final story, a person has a scary moment while housesitting.

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."
