Content Warning: This episode features brief descriptions of torture.

Synopsis: Weep Not Manor is considered the nation’s most extreme haunted house. Open only on Halloween night, only invited guests are allowed to experience the terrors inside. It is free, but getting an invitation requires a pre-screening interview. Three participants are about to find out the truth behind the manor.

Caleb – Stefan Maric, a VICE news intern
Birk – Robert “Corpserot” Preston, a grindcore singer
Aaron – Allan “roughing it” Cartwright, a Youtuber.

Protests rock Seattle over a G8 summit meeting held there and new laws expanding the powers of the police force. A group of intelligence experts are retired from their former careers and now work with activists to teach them basic tradecraft and help journalists reveal the truth. Why? They all share one thing in common – guilt over theirpast actions. Crowdfunding news sites pay you consulting fees, which pays the bills. That’s enough. Today’s protest should be interesting – street theater, big demonstrations, riot police…What could go wrong?
Aaron as Gabrielle the sneak thief
Tom as Persephone the analyst
David as Mace the face
Greg as Oliver the wheelman and demo expert
Ross as the GM

Bill Wessler is the biggest bully in high school. Just this week, Bill dared anyone brave enough to spend the entire night in the old Denford school on the edge of town.  The old 2-story building is surrounded by a tangled meadow of chest-high weeds and brambles. The walls are covered in ivy, the windows boarded up. The front door is slightly open. Bill and his two friends stand far behind you at the edge of the meadow, the lights of their car on, playing loud music, drinking beers and laughing amongst themselves. “We’ll be watching!” he shouts. “No sneaking out unless you wanna be known as chicken!” Once you enter, you can’t leave until sunrise tomorrow morning. It is almost sunset on Halloween night…
