288: Your Urban Legends LXIV – Ghosts Don’t Weigh Anything!

Julia’s house might be haunted, but we’re not gonna dwell on that. Instead, we’re revisiting how haunted pasta is, yelling at you about using homemade ouija boards, and picture ourselves as extremely haunted dolls. 

 

Content Warning: This episode contains conversations about or mentions of family member death, health conditions, bugs, and ouija boards.
