Citizen’s Guide To The Supernormal - Episode 32 The Poltergeist Curse: 80s parents, Major Dad, and dick arms https://teespring.com/stores/citizensguidetothesupernormal https://allmylinks.com/sargethedestroyer Welcome back to the Citizen’s Guide blog. First of all, sorry we took so long to get back on track but if I’m being honest, it has been a year. Our podcast Twitter was recently suspended for unknown reasons but thanks to Maynerd’s quick thinking, we’re back like cooked crack, y’all. Check us out at https://twitter.com/CGSuperNormal?s=09. This episode was a bit of a departure from our usual fare but somehow it was still pretty “on brand” as people that I hate would say. In this episode we cover a legendary curse from a storied series of films with an unintentional body count higher than a Trump Rally, RIP Big Herm. That’s right, we’re talking about the curse of Poltergeist! I won’t spoil the fun but a lot of people died and one guy definitely regrets buying a dead kid’s doll. While you listen, consider the power of coincidence. If I told you that 4 people from the 1960 film Ocean’s 11 are dead, you wouldn’t be surprised but if I told you that 4 people from a movie made in 1982 are now dead, it’s a little more curious. People die all the time but when it happens right after a movie is made, the normal becomes… supernormal.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
