After a long stretch of recording remotely, we finally assembled in the same room for this week’s episode! It features a story entitled “Cat’s Cradle” from the series, Price of Fear! Our mysterious listener Monica recommended the story of a tour of a sinister medieval castle, but the tourists themselves may be the true horrors. Why do these visitors seem to have such interest in these artifacts of sadism? Does this story go too far when it comes to cruelty and gore? Did this couple really have no other options for a honeymoon destination? Listen for yourself and find out! Then vote and let us know what you think!

Couldn’t get past the animal abuse and cruelty, particularly how graphic it is. Had to stop the episode. Hope this episode disappears from the world, no reason to keep it around.
