Have you ever stopped at a fast food restaurant late at night? You walk in and hear the fluorescent lights buzzing overhead, and one or two exhausted workers are staring at you, waiting for you to order.

So put in your orders, my spooky friends. You are about to hear the tales of haunted fast food places around the world, and I hope you’re not too hungry

In the quiet heart of the Hungarian countryside lies a small village that, on first glance, appears sleepy and peaceful. But behind this charm is a grim legacy. It is soaked in arsenic and whispered secrets.

There is one prison that is known around the world. Alcatraz gained a reputation for being one of the most feared prisons in the United States.

My BFF and I have been friends since we were teenagers. About a thousand years ago, he and I made a joking deal. If he wanted to have someone killed, I would have to do it so he wouldn’t get implicated. If I wanted someone dead, he had to do the same. For years, whenever one of us has a bad day, we text each other saying things like, “You better go out and buy some garbage bags”. This has been our running joke for what seems to be forever. But in all seriousness, he and I are not killers or plan to ever be. It is just a dark joke between spooky BFFs.

So, go out and buy some duct tape, my spooky friends. You are going to hear about some people who show how far some will go for their friends
