Scared To Death

Dan Cummins, Lynze Cummins

About

The paranormal comes to life as husband-wife duo Dan Cummins (acclaimed standup comedian and true horror fan) and Lynze Cummins (costume and wardrobe stylist for numerous film and television productions) share terrifying stories that will leave you sleeping with the lights on. Dan’s goal? To scare Lynze with creepy accounts of demonic possession, shadow people, and other eerie phenomena. And when he’s done, Lynze fights back with chilling fan-submitted tales of true horror. Together, they explore the darkest corners of the web, dusty old books, and even their own eerie surroundings—a studio filled with occult objects and located right next to a cemetery. Don’t forget to check out the mini-series Nightmare Fuel, airing on this feed the first and third Friday of every month, where Dan narrates a short piece of original horror fiction.

Grandma Heidi's Little Children

Four very different and very interesting tales this week! Dan kicks us off with a story  somewhere in west Texas that centers around some Black Eyed Children. MAYBE. If not BEK, than what? Then, a second story that is set in two different locations in South Carolina, that both claim to be haunted, and both share the same name: The Rose Hill Plantation.  Lynze has two very unique tales this week. Her first explores vulture culture briefly and lost time and space amongst friends. What kind of chaos can you expect when exploring dead carcasses? Wrapping it up, the last tale is of astral projection. Such a heady concept that both Dan and Lynze have musings on.  BAD MAGIC PATREON DONATION: It’s back to school for those of us with kids and with that came the inspiration for this months charity.

What's Down There?

Dan kicks off this weeks show with a doozy! Neither are normal when it comes to subject matter. No ghosts today. No demons. No shadow people or even cryptids. Both have an extraterrestrial spin to them. The first deals with a woman in the late 1960s encountering something horrifying and seemingly not of this world. It’s a very strange story. Then, a series of encounters with UFOS, and possibly extraterrestrial beings as well, spotted around Russia, primarily back in 1989 when it was still the USSR. Lynze gives us a creepy but also funny tale about a haunted item brought home from GoodWill. Then she shares a story that we suspect ties to Native American Folklore.  STREET TEAM 2024: September 16th at 12 noon PT is when the stickers go live on our website- BADMAGICPRODUCTIONS.COM. http://badmagicproductions.com/Winner will be announced on November 4th on socials and on the shows- we record ahead of time so our personal announcement may be delayed so keep an eye on socials.  We are talking a $200 merch credit just by slapping some stickers around your neck of the woods!

Dan's  first story  revolves around a Realtor trying and failing to sell a property that seems to clearly have something supernaturally wrong with it.  Then is off to Eastern Canada, between Montreal and Toronto. Two young men head out to go camping and see more than they bargained for. One of them swears off camping forever as a result! Lynze crushes this week with two tales! Her first is a classic haunted New Orleans hotel story. What could be more spoopy that that? Then, a ouija board tale like none we have ever told.

It's Time to Wake Up

Dan starts with an alleged anonymous modern encounter involving a man hearing a girl’s voice as a child - a voice asking him to wake up, and a voice that keeps asking this for many, many years - well into adulthood. And then finally, something very strange happens that leaves him feeling certain that this voice did not just belong. Then, a tale that is about the mysterious and troubling disappearance of a young man who disappeared in the Idaho wilderness, not far from where Dan grew up, back in 2018.  Lynze takes us back to our childhoods with a creepy game of hide and seek. Then she wraps up this episode with an unexplainable story from an EMT.  PATREON MONTHLY DONATION: his month, we are donating to the Army of Survivors who’s mission is to bring awareness, accountability, and transparency to sexual violence against athletes at all levels. Accountability for perpetrators and the institutions that enable them; Transparency so athletes do not fear retaliation when reporting abuse, and institutions do not cover it up.  Nearly 6 million children and young adults in the United States are survivors of sexual violence through their participation in sports. This translates to nearly 13% of all student-athletes — and likely many more than that — as we know this crime is consistently underreported. The culture of sports today often makes athletes feel like they have to say yes to whatever they are asked to do because otherwise their career, their love of their sport, or their identity within that sport, could be threatened. We empower athletes with compassion, strength, and courage to embrace the fundamental truth that they have a right to safety.  We will donate 13,760 to The Army of Survivors. We will put 1,530 into the scholarship fund for next year.

The Stairwell

Dan's first tale he is telling is about an anonymous woman allegedly encountering terrifying in a stairwell. Then, in his second storey,  we learn about an allegedly cursed painting, The Crying Boy, produced by Italian artist Giovanni Bragolin. This painting was mass produced, and an alarming number of homes where prints of this painting have been displayed have burned down over the years. Yet the print itself almost never burns with them. Coincidence? Let's dig in. Lynze has some awesome fan submitted horror this week! The first is a classic road trip story that has a young couple spending the night in a creepy motel. Then, to finish out the episode, Lynze has a story about a little kids nightmares coming to haunt his whole family.  CUMMINS FAMILY SCHOLARSHIP: We want to give a MASSIVE shoutout to this years scholarship recipients! Sarah DeZwaan, Letha Dennison, Jessie Peckham and Liam Watson!! We are so damn proud of each of you for pursuits.

Who Are You?

Dan has one really big tale that is beyond captivating and unsettling. It's hard to say more without ruining the story. Then, Lynze brings us three stories this week. Her first is a about a possible encounter with a BEK, kind of. Less of a child and more of an adult. Maybe. Then, did a young boy see the infamous Hat Man or was it someone else?

Mystery On The Tundra

Dan crushes this week with one giant tale out of Alaska and a smaller tale from Spain! His first story will take you on a road trip to the northern tip of Alaska, up in the Arctic Circle where life is hard, sparse, and maybe more diverse than we currently know of with certainty? Did some young friends run across a murderous monster of some sort? Then to Spain we go! Is the House of Seven Chimneys in Madrid Spain haunted by the ghosts of two people connected to a possible early and unsolved murder involving the Spanish King? Next up, Lynze has some awesome stories too! First up, we explore some Mexican Folklore. Can you guess the folklore before it's revealed? Then, in her last story, a feeling we all know all too well.

They aim to give the affected communities the necessary support and resources for recovery by way of rapid response from their team members closest to the area.

A Night In Room 636

Dan shares two stories. The first one is a big one. We’ll visit the Gunter Hotel in San Antonio, Texas. Did an infamous murder committed there in 1965 lead to the hotel gaining a reputation for being particularly haunted?  The history at the top of this tale is awesome!  Then, we’ll travel across the pond to Leeds, England and look into a claim that either a monster or someone who was just monstrous moved into a row house right after its tenants moved out in the 1940s, and began harassing the neighbors. Lynze also gives us two tales from opposite sides of the world. Her first story is about a  seance gone wrong. But let's be honest: when do they ever go "right"? Then, a very freaky and bizarre tale of a possible alien encounter in Australia!  Hang with us this week for a slower paced show. Dan is sick and was battling through to make sure we don't miss a show! Crazy, 255 shows and never missed an episode!

The Backrooms

Dan has one big tale for us this week. A story based in fictional internet horror lore, but the person who posted it CLAIMS that this lore has come to life somehow. The strange liminal world of the Backrooms. We’ve talked about the concept of the multiverse and/or parallel dimensions several times. Could the creepy world of the Backrooms be next to ours? Can you end up there? Can you end up stuck there? Then Lynze has two spoopy tales that are a bit more heady. Her first will ask you to examine if you believe that the supernatural could save you from the horrors of this world. Then, three police officers have a shared experience that none of them can explain. Was it supernatural? Men in black? You decide.  PATREON MONTHLY DONATION: Stay tuned for the July donation!  Thank you for continuing to send in your stories, Creeps and Peepers!** Please keep doing so!!

The Butcher of Trenton

Dan comes with his usual two stories this week. One bigger one, and then a little one. We’ve done a fair amount of haunted asylum stories here over the years, but few with as detailed of a backstory as today’s. We will start by learning about Henry Cotton - a truly mad doctor who worked at the New Jersey State Hospital at Trenton, now The Trenton Psychiatric Hospital. The we will explore if his ghost  now haunts the abandoned portions of this facility. Then, Dan dives into the creepy legend of a supposedly cursed doll named, Joliet. Has this doll been killing newborn babies for decades? Is this a family of Donna's? Let's find out. Then, Lynze has two really intense stories as well and she offers a warning at the top of the show for all parents- these are going to tug at your heartstrings. In her first story, she will share a story about a young child who drowns and nearly doesn't come back. But when she does, does she bring something, or someone, with her? Wrapping up the show, she has a story about a group of friends who go camping but come back minus a friend who seems to have simply vanished.  PATREON MONTHLY DONATION: This month’s charity is the Committee to Protect Journalists AKA CPJ.

He Was Real

Dan has two excellent scares this week. The first comes from friend of one of our staff. It is CREEPY. What starts off looking like a bad case of sleep paralysis  or nightmares ends up  being a very real case of an encounter with a pair of disturbing entities. Then we have a ghost story from the American Civil War era. Despite taking place over 150 years ago, it was well documented by some local newspapers. It’s a very odd story that is sad and scary. Lynze has three stories this week! She shares a tale about a possible sighting of spear finger on a dark road. Then, she shares with us one of those bizarre stories about time and space not being quite right. Lastly, a military story that left some servicemen beyond scared.  MONTHLY PATREON DONATION: This month, on April 23rd, we celebrate World Book Day! As lovers of knowledge and escapism, books are some of our most favorite things to spend our time and money on. In honor of World Book Day, this months donation will be going to “First Book”, a non profit working to inspire young minds through books. They believe that books are a critical resource for kids but they can be scarce for those who are disadvantaged. In fact, “First Book” has discovered “book deserts” in low-income communities, often revealing just ONE book to be shared amongst 830 kids. You heard that right! If books have helped you escape hard times, provided you with entertainment or education, then you know just how important books are! We are sending $12,950 to First Book!
