This week we have a twofer! First we have a letter to our listeners from a very exclusive orphanage called Procter's Children's Home. Don't bother Googling it, you'll never find it. Unless, of course, you're in the market for a very special type of child. Trigger warning: Child Abuse Our second is a very scary poem called Dead Man's Hate  (1930) by Robert Ervin Howard. We learn that disrespecting the dead can have dire consequences. It sent chills down my spine, and I hope it does the same to you.

This week we take a trip back to the 90s where we meet Stephanie, a carefree teenager with the seemingly innocuous job of delivering groceries for the summer. Stephanie gets an odd, and annoying, delivery one day.

We know now that the legends were true, there is some sort of curse at the Aumaille Manor, but is the curse what ruined them? Or what gave them their fortune in the first place? Last episode we found out what happened to that fateful group of tourists years and years ago. Now another group is stranded out in the swamps, and it's getting dark...Music: "Evening of Chaos", "Shadowlands 3 - Machine" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/All sound effects from Freesound.org: 03-Man walking gravel.wav by 14GPanskaHonc_Petr freesound.org/people/14GPanskaHonc_Petr/ Boat Starting Up and Driving by bone666138 freesound.org/people/bone666138/--- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/scareyoutosleep/message Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Let's hitch a ride on a night tour of dark swamps of Louisiana with The Aumaille Swamp Tour Co. The Aumaille's were once a great and prosperous family of the south, but their fortune faded quickly and their mansion crumbled slowly. Now, tourists pile into boats to gawk at gators and snakes and to hear about the history of the Aumaille's (now more sugar coated than the cane they used to grow).One night, twenty years ago, an entire group went missing. Vanished out of thin air. Or did they?We find out tonight what happened on that fateful trip, and even what happened to the Aumaille's themselves…. Have a story you'd like me to read?
