Evergrowing Fears

Studio71
About this episode

As the spirits of Halloween roll in, ever growing fears permeate the air. To cope with it we tell stories to have these fears exorcised. Even in the darkest of times, these tales show us the monsters--even the ones around us. And in these moments together we can distill knowledge needed to help us defeat them. First, Mysterious seeds sow a malevolent growth. And then, a walk along the shore brings unwanted attention. Followed by, a family fights for their lives on the night of Halloween. And finally, we bring you part one of “Jeff the Killer”, our abridged reading of the anonymous creepy pasta.
