Remember being terrified by the ghost stories you read under the covers as a kid? Do you ever look at a green ribbon and wonder what if it has a morbid meaning?
If you ever double checked the backseat of your car before jumping in to drive home alone, you might be a Xennial fan of the "Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark" series. And we are too.
Join us as we kick off an early spooky season episode and take a nostalgic trip back to the 80s and 90s, revisiting the eerie magic of Alvin Schwartz's "Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark" series and the younger age classic "In a Dark Dark Room."
