Episode 39: "When I straightened myself out with... another abnormal crunch?"

Left of Skeptic

Happy Spooky Wednesday! It's our third episode of our Urban Legends October and we are traveling across the world to tell you tales from Japan. Kala starts out this week with the story of Kuchisake-onna, or "Slit-mouthed woman", who has existed in folklore since the Edo period. This deadly yokai sneaks up upon unsuspecting humans to ask them a simple question that has no simple answer. Just trust us when we say you don't want to be asked. Brittany then tells the tale of Teke-teke, the spirit of a young woman who met a terrible fate and haunts many places to share that same fate with others. You can tell when she's nearby because of the tell-tale sound she makes of teke-teke-teke-teke. It could be anywhere! Even the bathroom. Apparently, it's often the bathroom. That's just rude. BONUS: Tons of Inuyasha talk. Cause we're nerds.
