Halloween is just around the corner, so naturally it’s time to hear some urban legends! We demand more answers, we respect the survival instincts of Australian teens, and we talk about the worst things to hear a sleep-talker say.
Content Warning: This episode contains conversations about or mentions of abduction, car accidents, death, and break-ins.
