Episode 59 – The Bleak Midwinter - a podcast by BSPodPhx

It’s the holiday season, so we bring you…dread. Whilst they are usually full of cheer, the holidays also have a sinister side. So in this episode, we bring you the dark side of the season. In Cody’s first story, he talks about an unusual case of Christmas spontaneous combustion. Chris then tells the interesting story of the Los Feliz Murder Mansion that inspired American Horror Story. Next, Cody talks about the fascinating mystery behind ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas. Finally, Chris discusses The Warminster Thing, a sound generating, car stopping, heart pounding...thing. This week’s Creep of the Week is a weird elf story from Reddit. This weeks drinks are Cranberry Ginger Shandy and Corsendonk Christmas Ale. And don’t worry: Next week’s episode will be merry and bright.
