Our Mid-Week Mini Spooks series is back! Each Wednesday in the month of October, Alex & Christie take turns telling a spooky story to prepare for Halloween. This week, we kick things off with a spooky Japanese folklore known as the Slit Mouthed Woman. Christie explains the tale, how it's been depicted in film, and how you should bulk up on to your candy. Tune in to hear more about this interesting folklore and to get right into spooky season! Need a distraction? We got you.  Listener discretion is advised.
