Sure, you probably feel like you'd know one if you saw one, but what is a creep? What makes someone "creepy"? Turns out there was a study done recently about what exactly people all over the world find creepy and the answers may surprise you. Did you know most people consider it more creepy to be extremely skinny than extremely fat? Or that a clown is considered far creepier than a funeral director? If you enjoy collecting dolls or birdwatching, you just might be a creep! We'll also discuss how modern tech and social media has made it easier than ever to be a creep and spot a creep. Eric will share his concern that he may, in fact, come off as a creep and tell some true life stories of sexual harassment (#yessomemen), and a scary encounter with two men who followed him home one night. And of course, we'll discuss the song "Creep" by Radiohead! All this and more on tonight's Spooky Ass Shit! Music by Occultic Overtones Listen to this episode!
Subscribe, rate & review Like us on FB Host Eric Dwinnells has been waiting for years to finally confront his guest cohost/older brother, Dan Dwinnells, about all the scary stories he terrified him with as a child. Eric ponders the impact it had on his psyche while Dan tries to defend himself. Family disfunction at it's finest! But this discussion segues perfectly into the real topic of tonights show: The Gates to Hell. Specifically we're going to take a look at The Seven Gates to Hell in Hellam, PA and the infamous Spider Gates of Leicester, MA. Deranged escaped mental patients, mad doctors, invisible passages, strange disappearances, lonely country roads, suicide, murdered children, rune stones, satanists, and a talkative spirit all figure into the tale of these two alleged gateways to the beyond!

Music by Occult Overtones Listen to this episode Subscribe, rate & review on iTunes Like us on Facebook Eric Dwinnells and guest co-host Tom Cole are back and this time they are focusing all their energies on revealing the life and crimes of the world's worst yet possibly most famous psychic, the late Sylvia Brown! Sylvia Browne is probably most famous for her numerous appearances on the Montel Williams talk show. She would go on and spew nonsense about angels and spirit guides and then give overwhelmingly false predictions about the future to grieving relatives of missing persons or the recently deceased. The biggest mystery is how she remained a star in the paranormal field while being so amazingly inaccurate! The woman charged over $700 for a 20 minute phone call and reportedly earned 3 million a year... We'll look into her early life, the religion she invented, why the FBI was keeping an eye on her, the frauds she committed, and of course, her false predictions and why they were so harmful. And, master impressionist that he is, Eric will premiere his Sylvia Browne impersonation for the first time!
