Ep. 197: Beetlejuice

Zo had gone apartment hunting over the summer. His fortunes had changed and he could, for the second time, move out of his mother's house (and, though she professed love and admiration and was sure to remind him that he could come back home anytime - Zo was sure that she was glad to see him go). Zo looked at a lot of apartments, most of which he could barely afford. One particular apartment , that was well within his budget, was legitimately terrifying. It was definitely haunted. Zo definitely saw ghosts. One in particular was as goofy and cantankerous as he was absolutely horrific. On the several times that he visited the place, that is, weighing the options of affordability while living with a poltergeist, the spooky specter appeared as a giant spider, a giant snake, and a frightening used car salesman. Even with all the different shapes that the spirit would take the thing maintained the same ghoulish drunken clown face. Ultimately, Zo decided against renting that apartment. He supposed that was the goal of the ghost haunting the place: to keep Zo from renting it. The other thing that Zo could remember from these encounters was that he could've sworn that the thing had a name . . . Did someone call it Beetlejuice?
