About this episode
There are places we were never meant to go… and voices we were never meant to hear. Tonight, join Otis Jiry as he leads you into the shadows, where forgotten things stir and laughter lingers long after the show is over. In this chilling episode, two haunting tales unravel the thin line between curiosity and terror—one set beneath the streets, where something ancient waits to be found, and the other following a wandering performer whose audience never quite leaves unchanged. Tread carefully, listener. Because once you’ve seen what hides in the dark, it might just start looking for you.

PODCAST SUMMARY

"Down Here" by Michael Whitehouse – When David receives a desperate call about an old friend’s unraveling sanity, he reluctantly returns to a past he thought he had left behind. But what starts as a visit to check on Eric quickly spirals into something far more disturbing. Eric speaks of a presence lurking beneath a bridge—something unseen, something waiting. As a storm builds overhead, David is pulled into a night of growing dread, where reality itself seems to shift and something in the darkness whispers an invitation he may not be able to resist. A gripping tale of obsession, fear, and the thin veil between the known and the unknowable.

"The Last Laugh" by Michael Whitehouse – A traveling clown arrives in town, delighting audiences with his antics and bringing joy to those who gather to watch. But when the performance ends, and the hat at his feet remains mostly empty, the true cost of his show is revealed. The next morning, the town awakens to an eerie silence, and a dreadful mystery unfolds. A haunting fable of unappreciated gifts and consequences unseen, this story will make you think twice about the price of entertainment.
