Episode 108 – NOW That's What I Call Spooky Spots! 2020

Ep. 108

We might all still be stuck inside for a while, but there’s plenty of traveling in this week’s ep!


A solid 78 episodes after their first foray into far flung frights, the boys are once again exploring mysterious locations. Jake’s up first, with a notorious lost American town that is… not really a big deal? It seems like? Find out what exactly happened to Dudleytown, CT and how cursed it wasn’t.


Wyatt then takes us all on a road trip! Where to? Some roads, of course! The most haunted in the U.S., if this highly esteemed car rental blog is to be believed. Buckle in and find out if this spookometer really goes all the way up to 5, baby.


If those horrifying creatures creeping down out of the woods by your house get to be too much, accelerate your car to at least 230 mph and join in for an all-new Superduperstitious!

    Stuff dies all the time, and sometimes those dead things are weird looking! This is two of those times.Wyatt leads with the Rhodope skull, the mysterious bone specimen that folks were only too excited to immediately label an alien. And don’t get him STARTED on the Adygea skulls! Jake then hops on the alien train with the Kovahsi creature, also known as Kesha. What’s little and desiccated and doesn’t have wings, no matter how many publications say otherwise? Google Translate will save us!“Horn core” is pretty fun to say. And that’s about all I’ve got left in the tank for this episode description.EPISODE LINKSAll-purpose show links: https://superduperstitious.com/linksFour Phantoms email: fourphantomsbeer@gmail.comFour Phantoms website: https://www.fourphantoms.net/Four Phantoms store: https://four-phantoms-brewing-company.square.site/Wyatt’s storiesAncient Code: https://www.ancient-code.com/the-rhodope-skull-the-mysterious-cranium-of-a-real-life-alien/Rhodope skull explained: http://bit.ly/3YeiCO9Jake’s storyRussian newscast video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6UWUdNXrIX4Image of Kesha: https://mustorage.blob.core.windows.net/images/2015/09/size-570x520.jpgRussian chupacabra article: https://www.fern-flower.org/en/news/mythical-chupacabra-boguchany-was-stMysterious Universe article: https://mysteriousuniverse.org/2015/09/strange-tiny-being-puzzles-scientists-and-scares-russians/Daily Mail article: http://bit.ly/3jmnBO3
