From The Archives: Frogppelgängers

Originally posted as Episode 91 on Feb. 20, 2020. 

Amanda and Sarah say screw it and try to scare the crap out of each other by tapping into their deepest fearscinations. Sarah gets into Amanda's frog/toad phobia with a look at the Loveland Frog and similar accounts from Ohio and other places. Amanda scoured Reddit and other sites for the creepiest, most disturbing, user-submitted doppelganger encounters. Other subjects covered include SWEET POTATO SKINS, horror daddies, and another ghoulish musical.

Recommendations:

Sarah recommends the latest season of the show Chilling Adventures of Sabrina and does not recommend the indie horror film, Pyewacket. Amanda adds her vote for watching the HBO show The Outsider.
