Show Notes

Our sincere thanks to mysterious listeners Lionel and Abby for recommending this episode of Lights Out, “The Haunted Cell!” You are both awesome! In this story, the police get their hands on a suspected murderer and lock him in a cell— a cell that is allegedly occupied by the ghost of an executed felon! There in the dark, this prisoner must confront both a disembodied voice and his own guilt. Can he avoid the horrors of a final judgment? What kind of legal system works like this? Is our last-minute analysis a stroke of insightful genius or is it obvious to everyone? Listen for yourself and find out!
