Sitting Down Will Kill You

from The Unexplainers

Sit down, get comfy… and maybe reconsider that chair. In this episode of “The Unexplainers,” John Rutledge (aka Eggsy from GLC) and Rhys Waters dive bum‑first into two delightfully ridiculous horrors: the infamous cursed Busby Stoop chair that “kills” anyone who sits in it, and Hanako-san, Japan’s legendary toilet ghost who might drag you to hell, feed you to a three-headed lizard, or just kindly pass you some toilet paper.Expect:Darkly funny true crime–meets–folklore around a haunted pub chair, WWII airmen, unlucky builders, and an Indian restaurant fined for serving the wrong meat.A crash course in Japanese urban legends, school bathroom hauntings, and why ghosts apparently love toilets.Skeptical takedowns of curses, health & safety rants, and way too much discussion of terrible British school toilet paper.If you like paranormal comedy, creepy folklore, and jokes about dying on the loo, this haunted furniture and toilet-ghost double bill is for you.Access all premium content and support the show here.FacebookInstagramYoutubeXVisit our network:thesonarnetwork.com Hosted on Acast.
