    Some things are meant to stay hidden. Tonight, join master storyteller Otis Jiry and his eerie companion Malcolm Blackwood as they unearth chilling tales of secrets buried beneath time, flesh, and earth. In this episode, you’ll encounter ancient hunger lurking beneath old floorboards, whispering shadows creeping through fractured walls, and the ominous weight of forgotten things demanding to be remembered. From eerie antiques with dark histories to neighbors with disturbing obsessions, each tale will drag you deeper into the unknown—until you, too, begin to wonder what might be stirring just beneath the surface.

    What does it take to endure the impossible? To escape the inescapable? To uncover the truth when every shadow seems to hold a secret?

Took a Long Time to get to the Story

I am putting this one away after 20 minutes. There are so many ads before and after a brief moment of actual story. :-(

Really?

I was not looking for a Dr Seuss story. Ridiculous and childish overdone rhyming. I hope this was a kids attempt at a story.
