Something Scary – Details, episodes & analysis

Some call it the Witching Hour, that deathly creep time, after midnight, between 3 and 4 a.m. when the world holds its breath. Some say it’s when spiritual energy peaks, a mockery of the holy trinity at 3:33 a.m., making it ripe for unholy rituals and ghostly visitations.

This Mother’s Day, we honor the incredible strength and love of the mothers who shape our lives for the better. Those of us lucky enough to have them, or other nurturing parental figures, are truly blessed. But remember, not all maternal bonds are pure. What you think is love may be something darker, something that lingers long after the last breath. Proceed with caution, for not all mothers are what they appear, some don’t live up to the title, if they’re even living at all.

Sometimes, what’s familiar to us isn’t what it seems. A loved one sings a song they’ve never known, their laugh rings fake, their touch feels... wrong. Doppelgangers, changelings, these are names we give to people, the things that slip into our lives unnoticed, wearing borrowed faces. We tell ourselves it’s just in our heads.

For those of us who have siblings, it often means that we have someone to lean on, and a built-in best friend to go on adventures with us. But that's assuming we like one another.

May is mental health awareness month. and we are grateful the world is more and more embracing how important taking care of our mental health is. Everyone has those days where they feel off, not themselves, or depressed. Sometimes people might even hear voices, and for those things it can be important to seek help. It can be hard to distinguish if those feelings are our own, or if something else has taken over our body.

So often we zip around town from home to school to extracurriculars. Some people are jet setting from coast to coast or traveling the world. We're always so focused on getting to where we're going, we forget about HOW we get there. But many terrifying events, accidents and deaths occur during regular travel in trains, planes and automobiles. That leaves a lot of places for unsettled ghosts and deadly spirits to reside. So be mindful on your travels that you don't run into the deadly paranormal, or become one of them.  First, a very bad influence  Followed by a guilt trip of terror  Then, the road trip from hell  Finally in our featured story, a living nightmare Thanks to our sponsors! • Go to Zocdoc.com/SCARY and download the Zocdoc app for FREE. • To match with a licensed therapist today, go to Talkspace.com/scary to get $100 off of your first month and show your support for the show.
