This week Bryan takes the 9:30 Society though the sixth episode of the first season of Are You Afraid of the Dark: The Tale of the Super Specs. In this episode the most annoying teenager in Canada, a. boy named Weeds, is so obsessed with pranks and practical jokes that he accidentally saddles his girlfriend with a pair of prank glasses that can see into a parallel dimension seemingly inhabited by spooky shadow people. They enlist the flamboyant owner of a magic shop to help them get rid of these cursed specs but things take an unexpected turn.

Don't forget to listen to Bryan and Dave on Bring Me The Axe! and 99 Cent Rental, Aileen on Uy Que Horror! and Mikie on The Rewatcher!

This week it's all about horse girls, generational trauma, and spiritual possession. Dogs come along eventually but the title is fairly misleading. End of the day, though, don't go climbing spectral staircases in the woods and definitely don't be honking your horn around horses.

It's another classic Are You Afraid of the Dark set up as city girl meets country girl when two cousins spend the summer together. One of them ends up possessed by the spirit of an ancestor long ago trampled by horses and she is suddenly tasked with grim duty of feeding the hunting dogs. If she can't find the kibble, she might have to feed her cousin to the dogs.

This week Mikie recounts the fourth episode of the first season of Are You Afraid of the Dark, The Tale of the Twisted Claw. In this episode a couple of thirteen year olds up to no good play an ill-advised prank on the local witch, causing her to break her own vase. Seeking ironic revenge on Halloween she gives them a dessicated animal claw instead of candy which is guaranteed to grant three wishes but none of their wishes work out quite the way they expect.

This episode features home decor that offensive to Dave. Mikie is pretty sure his mom stole the idea for her own cottagecore aesthetic. Aileen sees her own future as the local witch living in a haunted house and it turns out that the mean streets of Winnipeg have a real bad gang problem.
