Holy moly. Folks, we have made it to the season finale of Based on a True Scary! That's right, your favorite horror hosts Jake and Trisha are laying down one more episode before a small summer break. And oh what an episode it is! This week, the duo is looking into the real story behind the 2017 Spanish horror film Verónica! Is it a true story? Is it a total lie made up by the anti Ouija board alliance to stop the use of such a spooky toy?? Jake and Trisha are on the case. 

Joining our horrifying hosts in hot pursuit of the haunting truth is their dear friend, Mac Smith! Mac is a writer living in NYC who is a pun master, a karaoke superstar, and an all around hilarious delight. Follow him on Instagram for a good time: @macsmith1218 

Alright, kids! Get out your Ouija boards, summon those spirits, and settle in for one scary season finale. The truth is waiting. 

Music by Chad Fjerstad and Jacob Israel.
