So... for the first time ever... you can be part of an exclusive, LIVE Murder Mystery &amp;amp; Makeup episode. That's right, LIVE BABY.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; ***GET TICKETS at &lt;a href="http://moment.co/mmm"&gt;moment.co/mmm&lt;/a&gt;***&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; There's going to be some special surprises, some limited edition Merch and live chatting with you guys.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; This is a one night only event you don't want to miss and it cannot be seen anywhere else but Moment by Patreon.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; _______&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; Hi friends, happy Wednesday!&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; I don’t know about you, but the second summer is over, I’m pulling out the pumpkins, I’m lighting my candles, and I am ready to let Halloween take over. When I was going through my closet looking for Joan’s Halloween costumes, something fell from the shelf straight onto my head. It was my Ouija board. And look… I don’t know if it’s because of spooky season or what, but it spooked me. &lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; I mean yeah, it’s *just* a board game… but it *is* communicating with spirits...allegedly. It made me wonder… why are we letting kids casually communicate with the dead? &lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; So I got to searching. Turns out, there is a long, wild history behind the Ouija board, and some of America’s most popular board games. And a lot of their stories end in *murder.* &lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; I appreciate you for coming by, and tune in next week for more Dark History.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; _______&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; Want some cool Bailey Merch?&lt;br&gt; Shop Dark History Merch: &lt;a href="https://www.baileysarian.com"&gt;https://www.baileysarian.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; _______&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; You can find the Dark History podcast on Apple, Spotify, wherever you listen to your podcasts, and every Thursday here on my YouTube for the visual side of things.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; Apple Podcast- &lt;a href="https://www.apple.co/darkhistory"&gt;https://www.apple.co/darkhistory&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt; Dark History Merch-  &lt;a href="https://www.baileysarian.com"&gt;https://www.baileysarian.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt; _______&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; FOLLOW ME AROUND &lt;br&gt; Tik Tok: &lt;a href="https://bit.ly/3e3jL9v"&gt;https://bit.ly/3e3jL9v&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt; Instagram: &lt;a href="http://bit.ly/2nbO4PR"&gt;http://bit.ly/2nbO4PR&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt; Facebook: &lt;a href="http://bit.ly/2mdZtK6"&gt;http://bit.ly/2mdZtK6&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt; Twitter: &lt;a href="http://bit.ly/2yT4BLV"&gt;http://bit.ly/2yT4BLV&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt; Pinterest: &lt;a href="http://bit.ly/2mVpXnY"&gt;http://bit.ly/2mVpXnY&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt; Youtube: &lt;a href="http://bit.ly/1HGw3Og"&gt;http://bit.ly/1HGw3Og&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt; Snapchat: &lt;a href="https://bit.ly/3cC0V9d"&gt;https://bit.ly/3cC0V9d&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt; Discord: &lt;a href="https://discord.gg/BaileySarian"&gt;https://discord.gg/BaileySarian&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; RECOMMEND A STORY HERE: cases4bailey@gmail.com &lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; Business Related Emails: baileysarianteam@wmeagency.com&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; Business Related Mail: &lt;br&gt; Bailey Sarian &lt;br&gt; 4400 W.
