A quiet housesitting job in the Danish countryside is nothing but peace and silence until two strange visitors ringed the doorbell in Dan's first story of the week. Then, we travel to the small town of Fouke, Arkansas. Is the Fouke Monster just folklore… or something very real that’s still around?A call to a pest company regarding some flies leads to a very creepy realization in Lynze's first story this week. Then she takes us to a college campus for a modern encounter and the lore of the faceless nun. Crime Wave At Sea 2.0! In 2027, we will once again be going on the Crime Wave At Sea cruise! YAY!!!

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."
