Pack your sage, prepare your best “WTF” face (Lauren’s already making hers), and settle in because this week’s stories are a ride:
Waverly Sanitorium – Kentucky’s creepiest TB hospital, where patients “relaxed” in lung chairs (Courtney can't spell, but what else is new?). Picture rows of bundled patients breathing in “fresh air,” while the halls filled with shadow people, disembodied voices, and Timmy the eternal ball-playing ghost. Add in the infamous death tunnel (aka paranormal Slip ’N Slide) and Lauren’s uncontrolled facial expressions—which range from “ew” to “I’m filing a restraining order on this building.”
The Awful of Vermont The Awful is described as a griffin-like terror with massive talons and feet that could squash you like a can of LaCroix. Locals say it flaps through the forests like a nightmare bird straight out of an acid trip, shrieking like a banshee at open-mic night. It’s avian, it’s monstrous, and it definitely doesn’t care about your campsite s’mores. It just wants to stare at you, while perched above you. All day. ALL. DAY.
✨ Stay spooky and saged, ya'll.
