Em covers the General Wayne Inn, which features some pretty judgmental drunken spirits, and Christine covers the Philly Poison Ring, which is full of spaghetti, witchcraft, and, of course, murder. Philly, thanks for being good to us. Til next time. And that’s why we drink! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

E99 Paranormal Swirl and Aura Imprinting

Spirit of Christine, are you there? Scratch us with three claw marks if you want us to leave this kiddie pool of wine by your grave! In the last episode before we hit triple digits, Em covers reportedly the most haunted hotel in Great Britain, the Rams Inn of Gloucestershire. This obviously brings us to the age-old question: is it grave desecration to give spirits brownie batter? Meanwhile, Christine covers the much requested and devastating story of the Yogurt Shop Murders in Austin, Texas. We also just might be opening our own bread and breakfast… and that's why we drink!

E98 Exorcism Colonics and a Hot Sauce Love Potion

So sorry, everyone, we have to reschedule. We have a demonic assault penciled in for 3pm today. But in the meantime, Em brings us a movie report of the Vatican exorcist, Father Amorth, and how the director of the Exorcist (the film) witnessed his first real-life demonic possession. On the true crime side, Christine, hot off her jaguar-filled honeymoon, tells the tragic story of the death of Tina Watson, who died under suspicious circumstances while scuba diving in Australia on her own 2003 honeymoon. And lastly, get ready, because we're quitting the podcast game to become full-time bubble wrap salespeople… and that's why we drink!
