The Legend of Danvers Asylum

Patient seemed incredibly lucid, showing no signs of psychosis. Charming, even. I asked about what she was seeing that no one else could see.

“It was just a few weeks ago when it started,” she said, still in a neutral, lucid tone. "The odd rashes began coming and going, I felt something… moving… under my skin. I went into the bathroom so I could have the best possible light. It looked like… and now you’re really gonna think I’m crazy - it looked like a tiny little hand pushing against my skin from the inside. And soon, there was a second tiny hand pushing. Like a little person - or creature - inside of me trying to get out."

Boy oh boy does Dan have some juicy tales to tell this week! The first story is especially terrifying. What if you could feel something inside of you, trying to get out, but no one believed you? Listen to the tale of woman plagued by what was inside of her and how she may have given it to someone else. Across the pond, is where we visit Alton Towers. Alton Towers have seen much death and tragedy throughout its long history: huge battles, murders, suicides and even a witches curse. Let's dig in on variety of those tales.

The Lady of the Locks is Lynze's first tale. A story about a mischievous wife who ran around on her husband and thus, her husband killed her. Or so the story goes. When a diver needs to go down into the lock system, where she supposedly drowned, he isn't sure if what he is seeing during the routine cleaning is his imagination or something more. While we are on the topic of things beneath the earth, let's consider a haunted bomb shelter, left over from days gone by. A high school student is locked in one, underneath his high school. And while that's a bit scary, it's not that big of a deal. Until he passes out and awakes to find tiny hand prints on his body. What happed down there?

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."
