Well this one's uncomfortable! Our Facebook fans chose this story over a nice, quaint, non-brutal story that didn't make us cringe. Thanks a lot, Facebook fans. It's not often we kick off the show with a content warning!

This is the story of the LaLaurie Mansion. Come for the ghosts, stay for the right amount of porn for LinkedIn, Dark Patrick, rated "B" for "butane," pre-dinging the dong, bones for tapas, the Full White, and the Taco Bell menu of kids' names.

It is somehow our 100th episode! *noisemaker sound* Who knew there were so many ghosts in the world? To celebrate our centennial, Clayton has a surprise for Patrick -- he's turning the tables with his own version of Two Haunts and a Flaunt! But this time, there's a twist. The three stories are all revisitations of stories we've already shared. That's right...new ghosts from old haunts!

Then, after the stories, unpaid intern Jen Swanson joins the guys for a bit of trivia, a dash of Would You Rather?, and a touch of personal reflection from the last 100 episodes.

This is the 100th episode of Is This a Ghost? Come for the ghosts, stay for the scream of a child (as it were), tobaccopreneurship, a little leg bed, the coriander did it, 10 cc’s of soy sauce please, infants can stack, why is my brain flapping?, Kool-Aid and Takis and all the thwocking and the copping.

Do you love good music, chill vibes, natural beauty, and an axe-wielding elderly ghost? Then Red Rocks might be the venue for you.

This is the story of The Hatchet Lady of Red Rocks. Come for the ghost, stay for a nice little preview of the heat death of the universe, never forget (your birthday), this Tom Cruise-ass life, the Phish residency, behavior plus axe, and my hatchet kink.
