IN THIS EPISODE: (Dark Archives episode, previously aired July 13, 2018) *** A father locked his kids in a trailer while going out to get drunk – but the supernatural makes him pay for it. (Daddy Demon) *** A non-believer in the supernatural is forced to rethink his beliefs when he almost dies of fright. (The Screaming Waitress) *** Not all monsters in the closet are imaginary – as one parent found out. (The Bad Man In The Closet) *** He came to be known as “America’s Unknown Child”. On February 25th, 1957 the body of a young boy was found and even today, 61 years later, we are no closer to discovering who the boy in the box truly was. (The Boy In The Box) *** Most stories of people being abducted by aliens, or being experimented on by extraterrestrials are often chalked up to something like sleep paralysis. But what if the aliens leave behind scars on your body that cannot be explained? (They Came Into My Bedroom) *** At the end of the podcast… what’s the deal with Friday the 13th? When did it begin? Is there anything to it? Is there anything we can do about it? (Why Does Friday The 13th Scare us So Much?) *** We head to 1897 Boston, where a young woman is found dead, strangled… and the only eye-witness is a blind man. (15 Corning Street)
