44 - Short and Shivery 28

David’s never really been a cat person but is alright being cat-adjacent, while Kaela had a cat growing up and likes them pretty well. That’s important because this episode, guests Eli and Kylie from Animal Fact Files are bringing some feline frights to peruse. Will these two tales make the groups whiskers stand on end, or are these cats better left in the bag?

41 - "The Forest of a Thousand Legs"

David and Prasokour don their protective gear and trudge into a Nosleep story without a NoSleep title, which is already a good sign. Will this anomalous arachnid account manage to snare the hosts in its narrative web, or will it be a the prose equivilant of a can of bug spray?

39 - Short and Shivery 27

It didn’t start out as a Short and Shivery, but David, Kaela, Allen and Abysmii found the first story offered a little too short (but at least a little shivery) and decided to, at last minute, tack on another one. What follows is a pair of stories with very different tones and very different reactions from the panel of readers.

“The Gun Game” was initially uploaded to the Creepypasta Wiki by RetardoTheMagnificent. Read along here.

38 - SCP Roundup: Confinement Edition Part 1

Lord Bung’s Confinement series provides ample fodder for yet another trip to the SCP Foundation, as David, Kaela and Allen read up on the entries used as inspiration. How does the webseries hold up in terms of adapting the spirit of its source material, and which SCPs will be utilized?

All of the entries read can be found on the SCP Foundation website: http://www.scp-wiki.net/
SCP-082 - “‘Fernand’ the Cannibal“ was archived by FrtizWillie.

SCP-007 - “Abdominal Planet” was archived by xthevilecorruptor.
SCP-407 - “The Song of Genesis” was archived by Pair Of Ducks.

36 - "Ticci Toby"

Technically this is the third time this “icon” story has popped up in David’s life, but it’s finally the one that gets pinned down and recorded for posterity, with a little help from Mike MacDee. Does Toby Rogers suffer from the same terrible cliches as his fellow Creepypasta brethren?

30 - "Search and Rescue Woods" Part 5

More than halfway through the whole thing now, yet David and Allen struggle to muster any sort of enthusiasm as their dismal meandering through the endless expanse of this story continues. Will this part have any sort of unexpected surprises?

(Skip ahead to 3:18 if you want to avoid the sound of the hosts chomping food directly into microphones - their level of caring has hit an all-time low.)

29 - "The Doll Named Lil' Nancy"

A harrowing disaster means David and guests Beth Morton and Skill Flea are forced to recover from a lost recording by reading a haunted doll story, pulled at random from the depths of the Creepypasta Wiki. Will this make up for that time?
