Whether you call it Christmas, Yule, Wintermas, or just another damn day, this used to be the season for scares; families would gather round the fire and run out the long, cold hours till dark by telling one another spooky stories.

On this episode we catch a ride to far-off spots like Singapore and Pudukottai, India where cab drivers have encountered the kind of high strangeness you’ll have to hear to believe: doppelgangers, vanishing cyclists, the sirens of the wastelands, and more!
