Episode 63 – Spontaneous Human Combustion: R.I.P. Lorraine Warren
Rainy day doldrums got you down? That’s no reason not to disrespect the dead!
This week’s theme is seemingly paranormal medical phenomena, and Jake opens with a description of near-death experiences. What happens if you go toward the light? IS there really a light to go toward? And is Macho Man Randy Savage really waiting for you at the end of it?
The boys then pay their respects to the late medium/demonologist/book and movie mogul Lorraine Warren (and the even later Ed Warren) in very, very tasteful fashion. It’s a struggle not to cry as they recount their favorite Warren cases, how totally real those cases were, and how much they’ve always seen the Warrens as upstanding members of society.
Wyatt finishes things off with the frightening and mysterious phenomenon of spontaneous human combustion. Can you really just suddenly become on fire? How long has this been happening to you? Is there a history of bursting into flames in your family? I’m going to recommend that you take two lit cigarettes to bed and telegraph me in the morning.
Grab a box of tissues and a fire extinguisher and STAY WITH US — IT’S NOT YOUR TIME YET! Instead, it’s time for another episode of Superduperstitious!
