Latest / INSPIRE STORY / I Work At A Half-Priced Voodoo Shop
Transcript
- 0:15Speaker 1: Welcome back to Griefcast.
- 0:17Speaker 2: Today, we are reading a story called I Work at
- 0:19a half priced Voodoo Store. From what I've been told,
- 0:25it seems that this is in you, not an exact parallel,
- 0:28but it's something that if you're a fan of Tails
- 0:31from the gas Station, this is something that might skew
- 0:33towards your liking. I don't know if it's as comic
- 0:36coal or as you know, if it's as campy and fun,
- 0:38but just like kind of little exerts from somebody working
- 0:42in a in a spooky shop pretty much right.
- 0:47Speaker 1: Yeah, It's like.
- 0:52Speaker 3: I completely lost what my train of thought was.
- 0:55Speaker 4: I was, I was somewhere with that.
- 1:02Speaker 1: It's okay. I had one line immediately, just don't mess
- 1:08it up. Don't mess up?
- 1:12Speaker 4: Sure, I think because I saw a couple of people
- 1:18recommend this one, I think it's kind of campy.
- 1:21Speaker 1: I don't think it is.
- 1:23Speaker 4: Well, I mean, it's our audience, so if it was
- 1:25as on the nose as Tails from the Gas Station,
- 1:27they wouldn't tell us this. But most people have yes
- 1:30described it as like a more tonally like straightforward Tales
- 1:34from the gas Station.
- 1:35Speaker 1: I really I really liked Tales from the gas Station.
- 1:40Speaker 4: And thought it was like fun and like enjoyed some
- 1:44of the narrative directions. At the end, I was like
- 1:46annoyed because I think I was taking it a little
- 1:48too seriously.
- 1:50Speaker 1: So I'm going to try to not do that this
- 1:52time hopefully.
- 1:54Speaker 2: Well, I will say, you know, I think that the
- 1:57ending was so kind of out there and stuff that
- 1:59by the and you know, I think.
- 2:01Speaker 1: At least I was rolling my eyes a bit.
- 2:03Speaker 2: But I will say, yeah, the entire like the time
- 2:06of like it was funny, it was. I mean, it's
- 2:08such a good fucking story, man, It's such and I
- 2:10know we haven't even touched on all of it, but
- 2:13I'm kind of ready to have another experience like that.
- 2:15Speaker 1: Like I wouldn't mind another campy thing right.
- 2:16Speaker 2: Now, going into it prepared for that, you know, and
- 2:19have it it be consistent through the story would be lovely.
- 2:22I think that's the biggest problem with a lot of
- 2:23the stuff we read. It is like it's not that
- 2:25it goes campy, it's that's like you sent me through
- 2:27the entire thing and then at a certain point it
- 2:30just like hits you across the face with a bat
- 2:32where it's like.
- 2:32Speaker 1: And by the way, now yeah. You know, it's like
- 2:35it's just a bit jarring.
- 2:36Speaker 2: You're so in You're in one seat on a ride
- 2:38and you're like yeah, yeah, yeah, and then it turns
- 2:40into another ride halfway through and you're like, oh, I
- 2:43was enjoying that ride, so yeah, exactly. Whatever it is,
- 2:47I hope, but if it's campy, let it be campy throughout,
- 2:49and I'm ready to have some fun with it.
- 2:51Speaker 1: I'm going to let this happen to me.
- 2:53Speaker 4: Whatever this story has in store, I'm gonna let it
- 2:56just simply take me and do it at once. The
- 2:59story is written by a Reddit user who goes by
- 3:02voodoo Clerk. It seems that they made that account in
- 3:06order to originally tell the story, but they have several
- 3:08other stories on No Sleep as well, like I'm a
- 3:11receptionist out of Plastic Surgeons, my boss is stalking me.
- 3:15Another series or another standoff or one off. My cross
- 3:19country road trip turned out to be a mistake. So
- 3:21they write a bunch of different stories, and they also
- 3:23post a lot of I believe their own art regarding
- 3:26their stories. They have a linked Instagram account as well
- 3:29that is also Voodoo Clerk, where they post a lot
- 3:31of artwork for the characters within the story. So it
- 3:35seems that this original voodoo story got a ton of
- 3:38traction and a bunch of people became interested. So the
- 3:40author just kept rolling with it from there, writing more
- 3:42stuff making art about the stories, which is pretty cool.
- 3:44So we'll there' stuff linked in the description to check out.
- 3:47Be sure to show them some love.
- 3:48Speaker 2: Yeah, be sure to show their author love as always, guys,
- 3:51go support their stuff, especially if you like the story.
- 3:53See if there's any physical media.
- 3:55Speaker 1: Is there any? I don't think I saw any physical media?
- 3:57This person was still like that, but I don't think so. Heoh,
- 4:01at least none that I'm seeing.
- 4:02Speaker 4: But again, they're socials to be linked in the description
- 4:04for you all to double check if you're interested.
- 4:06Speaker 3: But none that I'm seeing on their Instagram.
- 4:09Speaker 4: There's like artwork they make, but I think that is it,
- 4:12at least from what I see in their official links.
- 4:14Speaker 2: Okay, cool, Well, I mean go support them any way.
- 4:16You can just support the authors or the reason why
- 4:18we're here. And just wanted to say, if you enjoy
- 4:20this podcast, do consider checking us out on Spotify or
- 4:23Apple Podcasts.
- 4:24Speaker 1: It does help us out quite a bit and it
- 4:26just helps keep this thing rolling.
- 4:28Speaker 2: So without further ado, I say, let's get into I
- 4:31work at a half priced voodoo store.
- 4:35Speaker 1: Let's get into it.
- 4:36Speaker 4: I should also mention, especially for you Hunter and the audience,
- 4:39that if I randomly disappear at any point, there's like
- 4:41a biblical storm happening outside of the window right now.
- 4:45Oh so either the power went out or I died.
- 4:49Speaker 1: Oh good, I'm going to assume that you just died immediately. Okay,
- 4:52I'm going to jump to that conclusion.
- 4:54Speaker 4: Good, And I want you to continue the podcast in
- 4:56my state, if I died right now on air, what
- 4:58would you do.
- 5:00Speaker 2: And I knew that you died, Yeah, I would stop.
- 5:04I would probably I would stop recording and I'd be like,
- 5:08I would stop recording, and I would go and I
- 5:10would probably try to.
- 5:11Speaker 1: Alert some kind of authority of being like, hey, this
- 5:14guy died.
- 5:15Speaker 2: Also, I'll tell you if you die, if you did not,
- 5:19if you did not die, or if you did die,
- 5:20I would not continue the show.
- 5:23Speaker 1: We've had this conversation before. Yes, you would. I absolutely would.
- 5:27Speaker 4: Have discussed at length on this podcast before.
- 5:31Speaker 1: You would have entire breakdowns.
- 5:34Speaker 4: No, okay, well, what you would just like be like
- 5:36well that sucks.
- 5:38Speaker 1: Sorry everyone, he's dead.
- 5:39Speaker 2: I think that that's if if anybody got mad that
- 5:42the show ended because where the Coast died, I'd be like,
- 5:44why don't you fucking look inward just a little bit, dude.
- 5:47Speaker 4: Like good the lord, you know why why don't you
- 5:50examine your heart and get back to me?
- 5:52Speaker 3: On that one?
- 5:55Speaker 1: I would be I certainly would not continue the show.
- 5:57Speaker 4: If you died, I would be free for once, I
- 6:00would be able to escape.
- 6:04Speaker 2: I mean, here's the thing, though, if you carried on
- 6:06without me, that's totally fine. I'm just saying for me,
- 6:08I'd be like, there's no way you're the whimsical backbone.
- 6:11If there's none of that, it's not even worth doing.
- 6:13There's no whimsy.
- 6:14Speaker 1: I'm the whimsical backbone. I think, So what what would
- 6:19you be? God? I don't. I wish, but I don't know.
- 6:32It's such an as titleone was nice is whimsical backbone?
- 6:38Speaker 5: No?
- 6:38Speaker 4: No, it's it's too kind, That's my point.
- 6:41Speaker 1: It's too like.
- 6:41Speaker 4: I I think I'm just the guy that reads stuff
- 6:44and you do the funny impressions and jokes.
- 6:46Speaker 1: That's fine. I'm the I'm the chat GPT boys.
- 6:51Speaker 4: With a I and they wouldn't noticed for like two weeks.
- 6:55Speaker 1: Well, to be fair, I don't think that they would
- 6:57notice on any of us. It's getting too good. It's
- 7:00it's it's simply too good.
- 7:02Speaker 2: What I am worried about on ironically is that because
- 7:06I was actually just to throw this out too, and
- 7:07we'll get to the story quickly. But the people have
- 7:11been posting there's stories on creepcast and it's been awesome.
- 7:17I love that on the Creepcast subret I should say,
- 7:22and I'm so worried that people are going to and
- 7:24I don't even know if I should say this, it's
- 7:26just slipping into AI stories and like, yeah, that kind
- 7:29of stuff. And I worry about that because it just
- 7:33sucks because there's so much actual media that people have
- 7:36made and like put their fucking heart into, and you'd
- 7:39take to like spotlight that, you know what I mean,
- 7:41Spotlight that kind of thing. So I just want to say,
- 7:42if you haven't working hard on a story and if
- 7:44it keeps it, if every story you're writing is getting
- 7:46rejected by our slash no Sleep, throw it up on ours,
- 7:49like I mean, people have been loving it.
- 7:51Speaker 4: So yeah, I've seen a bunch of people posting stuff
- 7:55in there.
- 7:55Speaker 1: I need to come through it one day and pick
- 7:57out some favorites. But yeah, there is there. Did you
- 8:00did you see the fuck? Did you see the book
- 8:02that somebody? I did see that? What was that book?
- 8:05Isn't it pulled up a second ago? Yeah?
- 8:08Speaker 4: So hold on for those that don't know, someone posted
- 8:12this in our subreddit. In our subreddit, bus Federal ninety
- 8:17six fifty four, which is an absurd name anyway. Uh,
- 8:23they posted that there is a book called Yellow Flowers
- 8:27by author Drew Gasper, and in the cover of the
- 8:31book he put a note that says, dedicated to the
- 8:35creep cast community.
- 8:36Speaker 1: How cool is that? Man? That is?
- 8:38Speaker 4: That is so wild and unbelievably cool this author. Their
- 8:43name on Reddit is Forsaken Library one four nine. His flair,
- 8:49you know, you can pick flares on Reddit. His flair
- 8:53on Reddit is oh oh, he's going to explain Google
- 8:57to your quote during the best.
- 8:59Speaker 1: Fridge to ruin My life story.
- 9:01Speaker 4: He replied to the guy to a bus Federal who
- 9:04posted his book and said, whoa, thank you so much
- 9:06for buying a physical copy. Glad to hear you're enjoying it,
- 9:10And then He links an original post with an Amazon
- 9:12listing and stuff.
- 9:13Speaker 1: You know what, let's throw that in the description as well.
- 9:16Speaker 2: Yeah, we're gonna throw that in the description. Please go
- 9:18support that. Just think that's so cool. I remember the
- 9:22making a physical book and stuff. Go support that also too.
- 9:25It's always good to just support physical media in that way,
- 9:28and especially one.
- 9:29Speaker 1: Of our own.
- 9:30Speaker 2: One of our own can go read the story if
- 9:32anything to that, we could reach out and see if
- 9:34it could be something. If it makes sense to uh
- 9:37maybe read on the show or do something like that.
- 9:38I think they could be fun.
- 9:39Speaker 4: So they put they posted about it. Drew Gasper did
- 9:43and said, I've been listening to the podcast since basically
- 9:46day one, and while I've dabbled in writing a bit before,
- 9:49I've never actually published anything until now. Creep Cast definitely
- 9:52inspired me to write and actually finish writing my longest
- 9:54work today. It's up for zale on Amazon and if
- 9:57you really want a physical copy, you top on Amazon
- 10:00if you really want a physical copy, but it's also
- 10:02available to.
- 10:02Speaker 3: Read online for free.
- 10:04Speaker 1: Oh.
- 10:04Speaker 4: I wanted to publish it on No Sleep as well,
- 10:06but didn't realize how strict they were about some of
- 10:09the rules They gave me a thirty day band because
- 10:13my story contains a prologue and a fictional character's full name.
- 10:23Speaker 1: Oh my god, it's give us your stories.
- 10:29Speaker 2: It'll be okay, please, they posted there. But also at
- 10:32the same time, support the physical work man. Try to
- 10:35pick up a book if you can, or at least
- 10:37just read the story, share with your.
- 10:39Speaker 1: Buddies if you like it. You know how it does.
- 10:41Speaker 4: And then he said, well hold on, he says, I've
- 10:44dedicated this book to the Greek Cast community, so hopefully
- 10:46you'll enjoy it. I honestly appreciate any feedback y'all are
- 10:50willing to share. Also, there might be one or two
- 10:53creep Cast Easter eggs hidden throughout the books.
- 10:56Speaker 1: That's all that.
- 10:58Speaker 4: Well, now I have to buy four immediately. Anyway, back
- 11:03to that's very cool. Yeah, that's awesome, y'all check that out.
- 11:06But anyway, not to take away from the story we're
- 11:07reading today, I work at a half price voodoo store.
- 11:10Came highly recommended. I'm ready to have some fun with this, hunter,
- 11:12Are you ready to have some fun with this?
- 11:13Speaker 2: I am ready for some Ironically, I am ready for
- 11:16some camp be fun.
- 11:17Speaker 1: I need it in my life.
- 11:19Speaker 3: Ready time for some camp be fun.
- 11:20Speaker 1: Let's do it.
- 11:21Speaker 4: I work at a half price voodoo store.
- 11:24Speaker 1: Part one. You ever get out.
- 11:26Speaker 4: Of high school and realize you have no idea what
- 11:28the hell you want to do with your life? Turns
- 11:31out just kind of waiting and seeing where life takes
- 11:33you can really only get.
- 11:34Speaker 1: You so far.
- 11:36Speaker 4: You're always told, oh, what do you want to do
- 11:38when you get out of high school? Simple enough question. Well,
- 11:41it turns out it's a lot harder to figure that
- 11:42shit out when you don't really think of it the
- 11:44entire time you're in high school.
- 11:47Speaker 3: So what do you do? Walking down the aisle and
- 11:49accepting your.
- 11:49Speaker 4: Deployment and suddenly you realize you have no clue what
- 11:52you want to do with your life.
- 11:53Speaker 1: My name is Travis.
- 11:54Speaker 4: When I graduated high school, I had no idea what
- 11:57the hell I wanted to do with my life. College
- 12:00not appealing to me, job even less appealing.
- 12:03Speaker 1: So what did I do with.
- 12:04Speaker 4: All my government mandated education? Stayed home, sleeping all day
- 12:08and gaming all night. Typical dead beat shit, And like
- 12:12any loving and supportive parents, my lovely mom and dad
- 12:15threatened to kick me out of my ass unless I
- 12:17found something to make of my life, so I waited
- 12:20my options college. I had no idea what to study.
- 12:23The nearest college was several miles away. I had no
- 12:26scholarship opportunities. The idea of being in debt for the
- 12:28majority of my life was very unappealing. Job I get
- 12:32home tired and probably have to listen to some asshole boss.
- 12:35Speaker 3: So it's a job I ended up choosing.
- 12:37Speaker 4: Although trying to find any kind of employment in my
- 12:40town was near possible unless I wanted to work at
- 12:42a factory for the rest of my life, I really
- 12:44had to expand my search from fast food to garbage man,
- 12:47throwing my application to any place that had a help
- 12:49wanted signed. That's how I ended up at Old King Kreoles. Honestly,
- 12:55I don't remember even applying here. I just got a
- 12:58call one day when I was lying in bed reading
- 13:00a book. Let's just say that's what I was doing.
- 13:04Speaker 3: Oh I was. I'm like, why did he say, let's
- 13:06just say? But now I get it. It's a joke
- 13:08about self gratification.
- 13:11Speaker 1: Was he beating his dick?
- 13:13Speaker 3: That's that's what he was doing?
- 13:14Speaker 1: Yet? Okay, when my phone pulled me.
- 13:16Speaker 4: Away from what I was doing, sign as I stared
- 13:19at the unfamiliar number. The person behind the line talked
- 13:22with a heavy old Southern accent, but I can tell
- 13:25how excited he was to meet me in person.
- 13:28Speaker 1: Mister Weller, I'm just coming back. Boys.
- 13:30Speaker 4: You know, I wasn't gonna say anything yet. I was
- 13:33gonna give the story a little bit more time. But
- 13:35we are back on the Bayou right down in New Orleans.
- 13:40Uh Nola. Because it's old King Kreoles, it's a voodoo shop.
- 13:46I assume that's where this is going to. Voodoo shop,
- 13:50So I mean this might as well be down on
- 13:53Royal or Dalphine Street. Dal fine, straight, you go down
- 14:00to buy you He that sows the n reef with
- 14:03the whirlwind, said old mister Well's. Isn't that wait, hold on,
- 14:06remind me, isn't the bit that mister Wellers is a
- 14:09normal guy. But there's like a dude that follows mister
- 14:13Weller's around who talks like that.
- 14:15Speaker 1: I barely remember any of the stories we read.
- 14:17Speaker 2: You are you're asking the wrong man.
- 14:22Speaker 4: Okay, so if I recall correctly, the comments will correct me.
- 14:25But mister Weller's worked at a blood.
- 14:28Speaker 1: Clinic, yes, like a donation clinic.
- 14:30Speaker 4: Yes, but but he was just like a normal like
- 14:33you know, doctor, medical, technician, whatever. But there's like this
- 14:38crazy Cajun man in the trees who follows him around. Yes,
- 14:42and he's like, mister Weller is gonna get you good
- 14:46down there?
- 14:46Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah.
- 14:47Speaker 4: So really the character is miss is the guy that
- 14:49follows mister Wellers rather mister Wellers is completely unimportant to
- 14:57what this guy thinks of mister Wellers.
- 15:00Speaker 1: I think that was the bit we set up. I
- 15:03think that was the dynamic.
- 15:05Speaker 4: Oh anyway, although I never think about people who haven't
- 15:11seen old episodes.
- 15:12Speaker 1: Are well, at this point, this is your first episode
- 15:15you're in for Yeah. He was like, oh, creep cast,
- 15:20I'll check it out.
- 15:21Speaker 4: And we spend ten minutes talking about someone else giving
- 15:24us credit in a book they wrote, and now we're
- 15:27just talking about old stories they haven't heard before. It's
- 15:29we're really selling the podcast. I was excited to finally
- 15:33shove it in my parents' faces that I had made
- 15:35something with my life that is an intense like reaction
- 15:39to just getting a polk call. We're getting out a
- 15:42voodoo shop, living the dream.
- 15:43Speaker 1: Right.
- 15:45Speaker 4: Of course, if you asked me now what I would
- 15:46have chosen college is looking a bit more optimal, if
- 15:49only a little bit.
- 15:51Speaker 1: Now.
- 15:51Speaker 4: Look, we've all heard the story of bosses from hell
- 15:54and shitty working conditions for ship pay, and to some extent,
- 15:57I get that. I'll get into my boss in a second.
- 16:00I really don't hate this place. The customers pissed me
- 16:03off more than anything. Let me explain why by explaining
- 16:05my job. I work at Old King Creoles half Priced
- 16:08Voodoo Shop. What a title, what a great name. That's
- 16:12a great name for a video shop. I took you
- 16:15to some of the some of the stores. Yeah, yeah,
- 16:22I think it took you to Reverend Zombies, which great name.
- 16:26Uh and then Mama Bone Mama.
- 16:28Speaker 1: Again great name. Yah Mama was closed though, Oh yeah,
- 16:34that's right, that's right.
- 16:35Speaker 4: Reverence is cool and all Mama Bones was especially cool
- 16:37because when I brought like Brandon Buckingham and some friends down,
- 16:41she shut off the shop just to like do an
- 16:43interview with us for you too, which is very She's
- 16:45very kind and stuff and very knowledgeable about like voodoo
- 16:48traditions and stuff. A lot of cool culture down there.
- 16:52But yeah, so something like Old King Kreoles half Priced
- 16:56Voodoo would fit right in completely unnoticed. Also say, since
- 17:00I've brought it up, have we ever have I ever
- 17:03explained I feel like we've gotten close about when I
- 17:06got you trapped in the quarter and we walked ten miles.
- 17:09Speaker 1: Yes, we have explained it in great detail. We don't
- 17:11need to.
- 17:16Speaker 4: I take him down, No, no, no, I take him
- 17:18down to the quarter and we're going on like these
- 17:21little We went on like a haunt, a tour, and
- 17:23I'm like.
- 17:24Speaker 1: Oh, honey, you got to see this, you got to
- 17:25see this.
- 17:25Speaker 4: And I didn't realize it until near the end of
- 17:27the day, but we walked like a collective twelve miles
- 17:31across the French Quarter. And as the day went on,
- 17:34you could see it like wearing on Hunter's face, like
- 17:38it was getting worse and worse. And there were three
- 17:40instances where we would walk to the edge of the
- 17:42quarter and we'd be like, Okay, where's his next thing
- 17:45we're doing?
- 17:45Speaker 1: And I'm like, it's on the other side of the quarters,
- 17:47so we have to like double back the way we came.
- 17:51Speaker 4: At one point we were we were near the edge
- 17:55of town and Hunter's like, Okay, where's the next place
- 17:57we're going? And I just pull out my phone and
- 17:59he goes, it's out of the quarter right right.
- 18:05Speaker 1: And I remember at.
- 18:07Speaker 4: The very end of the day, we were trying to
- 18:09find somewhere to eat. It was like eleven pm. We
- 18:11were trying to find somewhere to eat, and I put
- 18:13in a location on my phone and we're like on
- 18:15Bourbon Street and the place is packed, and I was like, well,
- 18:18maybe I can find another place. And I like pull
- 18:20out my phone and I start scrolling and I just
- 18:23feel Hunter lean in behind me, like over my shoulder,
- 18:29and he goes, get me out of here.
- 18:37Speaker 1: I'm like, all right, we're leaving.
- 18:38Speaker 4: And then we went we went to a waffle house
- 18:40that was like weird and had a line and it
- 18:42was like takeout only, so we left. And then that's
- 18:46when we went to Canes and I cried laughing as
- 18:49we were ordering chicken.
- 18:50Speaker 1: You can acte. Yeah, it was a long day. There's
- 18:53a long day.
- 18:54Speaker 4: It was the very yeah. Yeah, the ca yeah, the
- 18:56cane acts. I forgot. I was so tired. I forgot
- 18:59what cane sauce is called, which is just called cane sauce.
- 19:03But Caine has a caniac combo option, so I order, like,
- 19:07I order the food and then I'm like, can I
- 19:09have an extra Caniac sauce? One more Caniac sauce? One
- 19:14more Caniac sauce? And I wasn't like thinking about it,
- 19:17and a hundred leans in right behind me while I'm
- 19:19in the driver's seat and he goes, I want you
- 19:22to say Caniac sauce one more time, and I'm I
- 19:28immediately realized what I had done, and I'm trying and
- 19:32I'm containing a laugh but I don't want to like
- 19:35start laughing at the person taking my order, and so
- 19:39it comes out as like tears just start running.
- 19:42Speaker 3: Down my face.
- 19:43Speaker 4: But I'm keeping it like completely, I'm trying to keep
- 19:47it straight while I'm trying to finish the order, but
- 19:49I'm crying, and the woman goes, are you okay? I'm like, yeah,
- 19:56I'm fine that I have one more Caniac sauce.
- 19:58Speaker 1: Please. I'm riddle and I'm old, and I don't go
- 20:04to the doctor as much as I should, and I

- 21:08Speaker 1: Thank you so much for zach doc for sponsoring this episode.
- 21:13Back to the episode, don't get too scared.
- 21:19Speaker 4: Quite the mouthful, huh, it's this glorified check full to
- 21:22the brim with freaky dolls and spooky cob webs.
- 21:25Speaker 1: Lovely place really, especially.
- 21:26Speaker 4: At night when all the desperate people come in begging
- 21:29for wishes or potions. Oh yeah, we give out free wishes,
- 21:32like really real wishes. But I don't handle that, so
- 21:36I'm not gonna talk much about them. Just remember, if
- 21:39you ever come in and ask for a wish, please
- 21:41think it through thoroughly. So tired of wiping up the
- 21:45counter after a bad wish gets granted. The main thing
- 21:48I deal with is doll cells and potions. Need that
- 21:52wart removed? Got a great potion for that? You a
- 21:55shitty parent and forgot little Jimmy's birthday? What if the
- 21:58dolls should do it? Just don't come crying to me
- 22:00when Jimmy Soul gets trapped in the doll. We have
- 22:03a strict no return policy. Is it a scam? No,
- 22:07you bought it without asking if it could suck up
- 22:09Jimmy Sole. Can't really do much about that, now, can I.
- 22:14Potions are more flexible. The only time I've seen it
- 22:16go bad was a weight loss potion. Had to sell
- 22:19the angry lady a potion to get rid of all
- 22:21her excess skin. I don't know what she expected. She
- 22:23was like three hundred pounds. Do you think all that
- 22:25skin was going to go somewhere? The way I check
- 22:28into work is also pretty interesting, if I can call
- 22:31it that, show up on time or five minutes late
- 22:33without fail, and stab a needle into the voodoo doll
- 22:36on the counter. It's not meant to look like anyone
- 22:38since it's a blank template, but still doesn't make it
- 22:41any less weird. I swear that thing looks at me
- 22:43whenever I'm on my phone when nobody is in the
- 22:45shop and I've got nothing to do. What do you
- 22:48want me to do? Wipe the counter down for the
- 22:50million time I've tried, Man, the dust always comes back
- 22:54without fail. Turn around for half a second and it's back.
- 22:57It's gotten to the point where I just leave it
- 22:59and draw things.
- 23:00Speaker 1: What else? Oh?
- 23:02Speaker 4: Yeah, we have a basement I'm never allowed to go into.
- 23:04I've told by my boss. Talk about him soon. Calm
- 23:07your horses that I'm never allowed down there, not that
- 23:10I even want to go down there. The loud knocking
- 23:12coming from it and the crying has pretty well and
- 23:14truly kept me away from it. Hey, don't you start
- 23:16judging me about it. If you're so damn curious, you
- 23:19go down there. If you're so damn tough, I'm just
- 23:22a cashier. If I'm told not to go down into
- 23:24the freaky murder basement, I ain't going down there. What
- 23:27else happens here, Well, the place seemingly stocks itself, so
- 23:31that's pretty cool. Sometimes this place can get so boring
- 23:35when nobody is here that I wish I could restock
- 23:38the shelves or the potions something.
- 23:40Speaker 3: Man.
- 23:40Speaker 4: I get paid to sit behind the counter and ring
- 23:42up things people want to buy, simple as that. I've
- 23:46been working here for about two months, and man, does
- 23:49it feel like I've been here for decades.
- 23:51Speaker 1: Every day feels like three. Man.
- 23:53Speaker 4: All right, I'll stop whining and talk about my boss.
- 23:56If you guessed his name is King Kreole, then ding ding.
- 24:00You've been paying attention to my dumb ramblings. King Kreole,
- 24:04who will shorten to k C.
- 24:05Speaker 1: That's for you.
- 24:06Speaker 3: Kansas City for.
- 24:08Speaker 4: Now is weird, like an uncanny valley kind of weird.
- 24:12He's this six', four blanky man with messy black hair
- 24:15and button. Eyes you ever Watched? Corline, yeah we're approaching
- 24:19other mother, territory. THOUGH i guess he's got her beat
- 24:22because he's real and his mouth is sewn, up same
- 24:25with his throat and neck.
- 24:27Speaker 1: Like he's got stitches all around his.
- 24:28Speaker 4: Neck sometimes when he turns his head too, quickly you
- 24:31can see a wobble and his stitch is about to.
- 24:33Speaker 1: Snap it's.
- 24:34Speaker 4: Gross it's pretty, cool all things, said, though he definitely
- 24:37doesn't have a concept of personal. Space WHEN i walked
- 24:40into work on my first, day he came out of
- 24:43god knows where and grabbed my hand and put his
- 24:45face like a good three inches away from my. Face
- 24:48one thing that strikes you About kse apart from the
- 24:51stitches and button, eyes is how pale he.
- 24:53Speaker 3: Is.
- 24:54Speaker 4: Now i'm no bronze god, myself But casey is about
- 24:57as pale as white.
- 24:58Speaker 1: Chalk. Like it's.
- 24:59Speaker 4: Unreal WHEN i first met, HIM i thought he was
- 25:01wearing pain or some shit like, That but, nope that's his.
- 25:04Speaker 1: SKIN i.
- 25:05Speaker 4: Think, anyway if you look at him long, enough you
- 25:08kind of see his skin, cracking like some bleach corpse or.
- 25:11SOMETHING i don't. Know all in, all he isn't such
- 25:13a bad. Boss he pays well. Enough get twenty dollars
- 25:16an hour to just sit here and ring up an occasional.
- 25:19Customer you got a, wish, sorry That's casey's. Department and
- 25:23of course if you screw up your wish and end
- 25:25up as a bloody mess on the floor, encounter guess
- 25:28what poor idiot has to clean that? Up yours, Truly so,
- 25:31please if you ever show up To Old King kreole's

- 25:58the idea of like the almost like what's that do
- 26:01the character From One, PIECE i thought the skeleton dude
- 26:04From One Piece, BROOKE i think it is his lovie
- 26:08maybe maybe me think of, That but then it's like
- 26:10it seems like, no he's just like basically a zombie
- 26:14of some kind or like A i THOUGHT i thought
- 26:17for a second that they were going to go the
- 26:18angle of he himself is like a voodoo, doll but
- 26:21it kind of seems like he IT'S i, mean he's
- 26:23a voodoo, doll but he's still a, skin you, Know
- 26:25he's not like made a. Fabric but the button eyes
- 26:27are pretty. Sweet AND i like that his mouth is
- 26:29all sewn up and. Everything AND i like the kind
- 26:32of comical tones to how torturous some of these wishes would.
- 26:35Be losing all that weight and then you're still walking
- 26:37around with all THE x skin and, stuff or you
- 26:40like turn to bile at the. Counter is a lot
- 26:43of fun. Too so curious to see how through these
- 26:45next couple of, parts because in total it's seven. Parts

- 26:49going to be an individual case of, hey this person
- 26:51came in and this, happened which is pretty.
- 26:53Speaker 4: Fun, yeah it's like a vignette's like with the. Setting

- 27:03Speaker 4: Doll, yeah like he's incredibly, pale button eye stuff like.

- 27:21i didn't make it scary enough for most. People so

- 27:33no idea WHO i am and stumbled on this post
- 27:35before my last. One my Name's, travis AND i work
- 27:38at Old King kreole's half prize foodoo, shop run than
- 27:41the desk against a, clerk and overall just do my
- 27:43best to keep up with all the weird shit that happens.
- 27:45Here like what happened WHEN i just started working. Here
- 27:48i'd punched in like any other day, before stabbing a
- 27:50pin into the doll template that just stares at me
- 27:53all day from its spot on the. Counter at this,
- 27:55POINT i was still struggling in vain to keep the counter.
- 27:58Clean but a last to know of it so resigned
- 28:01myself to just screw around on my phone UNTIL i
- 28:03saw some form of. Life, travis my, boy came the
- 28:07voice of my boss and owner of this fine, Establishment
- 28:10King creole.
- 28:11Speaker 1: Himself how has the job been treating?
- 28:13Speaker 4: You he, asked his stitched up lips curled into a
- 28:16smile as he came around the counter and wrapped an
- 28:18arm around, me causing me a decent amount of. Discomfort
- 28:22AS i mentioned, Before King creole has button, eyes stitched up,
- 28:25mouth and a head being kept on his shoulders by some.
- 28:28Stitches he always wears a nice black suit and a
- 28:30dark purple tie and a top. Hat, yes even he
- 28:34dresses like a pimp for some.
- 28:35Speaker 1: Reason travis is his newest.
- 28:39Speaker 4: SLUT i didn't mention That i'm forced to set up
- 28:46front and like a, garter, yes even.
- 28:51Speaker 1: Indoors and, YES i know he.
- 28:53Speaker 4: Looks, Ridiculous but, look, Man i'm trying to keep this
- 28:55job as long as, possible so.
- 28:57Speaker 1: Don't blow this for. Me it's going, okay, MISTER.
- 29:00Speaker 4: I, said, awkwardly still at this, point weirded out by
- 29:03his looks and his unnaturally chalk white, skin nodded happily
- 29:07at me and gave me a good smack on the,
- 29:09back getting because we described it as like being dressed
- 29:14like looking.
- 29:15Speaker 1: Prostitute that's my.
- 29:20Speaker 4: Ba he nodded happily at me and gave me a
- 29:23good smack on the, Back getting allowed oof out of me.
- 29:27Speaker 1: To heal, Son now remember they come ask a full.
- 29:30Wish you just come fetch old key, kreole And i'll
- 29:34be right on.
- 29:34Speaker 4: Over that voice is perfect for this, character he un't, happily.
- 29:42Speaker 3: Finally letting go of me and standing.
- 29:43Speaker 4: BACK i, nodded since that was really the only THING
- 29:47i didn't have to do.
- 29:47Speaker 1: Here by the, WAY i think one of the dolls is, missing.
- 29:51Speaker 4: Pointing towards the wall of voodoo dolls that goes from
- 29:53the floor to the. Ceiling each of them is of
- 29:56a different design and of a different, person so if
- 29:58one goes, missing there's usually a.
- 30:00Speaker 1: Reason oh, Well i'll be he, hummed almost.
- 30:04Speaker 4: Happily as his button eyes turned back to me and
- 30:07he gave me a yellow tooth smile behind the.
- 30:09Speaker 1: STITCHES i expect a customer will come in, today.
- 30:13Speaker 4: Chuckled walking past me and pat me on the. Shoulder
- 30:16his hand was cold as, eyes giving me a bit
- 30:19of a shiver as he vanished to the office in the.
- 30:20BACK i set my butt down on the uncomfortable stool
- 30:23that sat behind the, counter went back to looking at my,
- 30:26phone periodically peeking out the doll on the counter and
- 30:29turning it back over whenever it's somehow managed to turn
- 30:32and look at. Me that's the visual is. Funny for,
- 30:35one that you check in by stabbing a voodoo.
- 30:37Speaker 1: Doll that's.
- 30:37Speaker 4: Funny, Yeah but also that like he's just passively annoyed
- 30:41by all this.
- 30:42Speaker 2: Stuff, well, YEAH i liked. It he isn't just, like,
- 30:45well this is also. WEIRD i mean he's there every. Day,
- 30:47yeah he's gotten used it like more so annoyed and
- 30:50just kind of weirded. Out there are things that obviously he's, like,
- 30:52oh that's kind of shives a shiver real like that
- 30:54like sends a you, know a cold feeling down my.
- 30:57Back but otherwise he's just kind of, like stop looking at,
- 30:59me turn it.
- 31:00Speaker 4: Back he's like setting there Scrolling, instagram and every now
- 31:03and then he looks up in the voodoo, dolls who
- 31:05just like rotates it back around and goes back to his.
- 31:07Speaker 1: Phone that's a fun, visual, YEAH i think. So after
- 31:10about an hour into my.
- 31:11Speaker 4: Shift the old rusty bell on the door, clang signaling
- 31:13me to get off my. Phone AS i quickly hit
- 31:15it and looked over to the. Customer it was a
- 31:18girl about my, age maybe a year. Older she looks
- 31:20around at the, place a bit disgusted by all the,
- 31:22cobwebs quickly coming closer to. Me luckily she didn't look
- 31:26at the wall of, dolls since their gaze followed her
- 31:29as she came up to the.
- 31:30Speaker 1: Counter welcome To Old King Creole's Half Price Voodoo.
- 31:32Speaker 4: SHOP i said to my BEST i do actually want

- 31:49because she was wearing workout gear in the middle of a.
- 31:52Speaker 3: Fall she.
- 31:56Speaker 1: She seemed athletic and as if she was working. Out
- 32:00how DID i know?
- 32:00Speaker 4: This because she was wearing clothes which one would work out.
- 32:03In she obviously was jogging and saw sign.

- 32:10i gotta go get my. Boss to handle. That wait,
- 32:12here why go get, HIM i asked.

- 32:17AND i really don't blame her about that at, all
- 32:19If i'm being. Honest getting off my, STOOL i stretched
- 32:22a bit and made my way over to The king's, office.
- 32:25Speaker 1: Flinching i'm, sorry.

- 32:51what they. Say.
- 32:52Speaker 4: Stretch ben made my way over to The king's, office
- 32:55flinching when whatever was in the basement started pounding on
- 32:58the door. Again POINT i was still afraid of, it
- 33:01SO i just quickly ran past it and to the
- 33:03boss man's, office knocking three times LIKE i always was
- 33:06told to.
- 33:07Speaker 1: Do, hey Mister, kreole we have someone here asking about a.
- 33:10Speaker 4: Wish receiving silence from the, office raising a brow at,
- 33:14THAT i tried, again knocking another three times to get her.
- 33:17Response the RESPONSE i got was the girl at the counter.
- 33:20Screaming turning, QUICKLY i saw that it was just my
- 33:23boss stated at the, counter.
- 33:27Speaker 1: That's.
- 33:27Speaker 4: Funny he knocks three, times and he like appears in
- 33:30a puff of. Smoke looking back at the office and
- 33:32over to the, counter scratched my head at how the
- 33:35hell he had gotten over there so, quickly but ultimately
- 33:38resigned myself to it just being not worth my time
- 33:41to think.
- 33:41Speaker 1: ABOUT i do apologize for startling, you darling.
- 33:45Speaker 3: King creole hum taking his hat off and putting it
- 33:47to his.
- 33:47Speaker 1: CHEST i do forget sometimes that my appearance does frighten
- 33:51the fate of.
- 33:52Speaker 4: Heart in my, mind this is like a voodoo stitched
- 33:55version of The Voodoo man From princess and The. Frog,
- 34:00sure yeah and, everything, yeah like but like white skin
- 34:06with like the button eyes and stuff like. That, yeah
- 34:08he hummed with a.
- 34:09Speaker 1: Chuckle. YEAH i had the same reaction as that girl
- 34:11WHEN i first seen. Him it's a little early For.
- 34:14Speaker 4: Halloween the girl, pouted backing up from, him AND i
- 34:17can imagine really rethinking the idea of coming in. HERE
- 34:20i wouldn't have blamed her if she had left right,
- 34:22there would have saved me the trouble of cleaning up.
- 34:25Speaker 1: Afterwards what CAN i do for, You, melissa.
- 34:28Speaker 4: My, bossed, asked putting his hat back on that messy
- 34:30mat of black hair he, owned and put in his
- 34:32hands out in front of, him obviously throwing the girl
- 34:35off by knowing her. Name she looked to me as
- 34:38if to see IF i was having the same. REACTION
- 34:40i just shrugged at. Her he did the same thing to,
- 34:43me SO i didn't know what she.
- 34:45Speaker 1: Wanted.
- 34:46Speaker 4: Well she began looking back at him and pursing her
- 34:49lips and, thought what does asking for a wish and?
- 34:51Tail she, asked crossing her. Arms not a bad question to,
- 34:55ask in my own honest.
- 34:56Speaker 1: Opinion will you asked a little old me for a
- 35:00wish AND i grant it for, you no strings.
- 35:03Speaker 4: Attached i'm holding his hands up and showing that some

- 36:07again and startled me cousey rushing past it into his.
- 36:09Office Gang kreole's office was surprisingly. SPOTLESS i said that
- 36:14because the entire shop is covered in dust and, cobweb
- 36:16so seeing such a nice office was definitely. JARRING i
- 36:20know you guys are expecting severed heads and dead bodies,
- 36:23everywhere but, really he just has a desk and some
- 36:25photos on the. Wall all of them are scratched, out
- 36:28though SO i didn't really pay too much attention to.
- 36:30Speaker 3: It going over to.

- 36:52down on the, counter kicking up dust and sending both
- 36:55me And melissen to a coughing. Fit he opened it
- 36:57up and searched inside for a bit, mile growing wider and,
- 37:01wider seemingly about to bust his stitches when he pulled
- 37:04out exactly what he was looking, for pulling out a
- 37:06small can of what looked like skincare.
- 37:09Speaker 1: Cream, now, then your exact wish was that you never
- 37:13wanted to act any problems ever? Again?
- 37:16Speaker 4: Correct, yes the, girl tilting his head and waiting for an.
- 37:19Answer from my angle at his, SIDE i could notice
- 37:22that his head really strained the stitches on his. NECK
- 37:26i would have been funny to see his head go
- 37:27rolling around the. Shop lisa looked, uncomfortable obviously self conscious
- 37:32about my being, there but she nodded to The voodoo,
- 37:35salesman who in turn handed her the. Cream she looked

- 38:02got a conservative, amount tapping it on her cheeks and
- 38:05face as she spread it out in circles on the,
- 38:07surface and when she was, finished she pulled out her
- 38:10phone from her pocket and looked at, herself eyes raised

- 41:54asked me to lick the dusty counter AND i would
- 41:56have done, it taken it from. HIM i nodded and
- 41:58thanked him EVERYTHING i came, WITH i phone and nothing.

- 42:14but in my own, DEFENSE i did get paid a
- 42:16lot to do.
- 42:16Speaker 1: It that's a great. Defense and it seems like everyone
- 42:21thought she just ran.
- 42:22Speaker 4: Away no police ever came to the, shop and they
- 42:25never do whenever a wish goes. Bad so don't you
- 42:27start preaching to, me not Like i'm the one telling
- 42:30people to make wishes without thinking them. Through so if
- 42:33you ever end up at this, shop think of your wishes. Through,
- 42:36okay NOW i need to get back to. Work customer
- 42:38just walked.
- 42:39Speaker 1: IN i found like a little Monkey.
- 42:40Speaker 2: PAUL i wonder if these are going to all be
- 42:42like a Little Monkey paul situations as. Well do you think,
- 42:45also him clocking in with the, pen do you think
- 42:47that like protects him at all from, it like anything
- 42:51in the, store you know WHAT i?
- 42:51Speaker 4: Mean probably like whenever he clocks, in it's, like, okay this,
- 42:56one this guy's fine while he's in.
- 42:59Speaker 3: There probably, YEAH i would, say so that would make.
- 43:01Speaker 4: SENSE i also think like the monkey's paw thing is always,
- 43:04like oh you're wording wasn't careful?
- 43:06Speaker 1: Enough you? DIED i THINK i think that woe was.
- 43:08Speaker 3: Cheating a little.
- 43:09Speaker 4: BIT i think if a girl's LIKE i don't want
- 43:10acne and you just melt, HER i.
- 43:13Speaker 2: Think that he's, WELL i guess by monkey paw just
- 43:16mean more, so, uh like the wish always has No
- 43:20i'm Not i'm.
- 43:21Speaker 1: Not arguing you like you're correct the.
- 43:24Speaker 4: Story, Yeah i'm saying that was that was a petty
- 43:28move On King kriel's.
- 43:30Speaker 1: Part he doesn't let you what if you melted right
- 43:35here in the floor of the.
- 43:36Speaker 2: Shop what do you think is the thing scuttling around
- 43:39in the? Basement and also is there anything in the?
- 43:41Hole Like i'm curious with those little pieces propped up.
- 43:44Speaker 4: All though the hole was the passageway into the. BASEMENT i, think,
- 43:49OKAY i thought.
- 43:50Speaker 2: THAT i thought in the room it was the it
- 43:53was like almost like a, well.
- 43:54Speaker 4: NO i think what he's saying is he goes he
- 43:57opens the basement door and it's like a staircase going,
- 44:00down and that's the hole he throws the bag. Into
- 44:02because earlier he Said King creole opened it and walked
- 44:05down yelling when he got to the bomb of the.
- 44:07Stairs so whatever normally fights against the basement door wasn't
- 44:11Because King creole walked.
- 44:13Speaker 1: Out, yeah because he went down there and he was
- 44:14like pushing it away basically.
- 44:16Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah or whatever's down there's afraid of?
- 44:18Speaker 3: Him all?
- 44:18Speaker 1: Right? Anyway part? Three part?
- 44:21Speaker 4: Three what would you do if you got held up
- 44:23at work like a gunpoint and some coked up junkie
- 44:26of screaming at you to give him all the money
- 44:27and the, register hold your hands up and, Comply try
- 44:30and be a hero and fight him.
- 44:31Speaker 1: Off with a bat or a.
- 44:32Speaker 3: Gun hid it under the.
- 44:33Speaker 4: COUNTER i always THOUGHT i would just give the guy
- 44:35the cash register and hold my hands up while he
- 44:38left with. It that was UNTIL i got held up not,
- 44:41once but twice in the same. Week the first TIME
- 44:43i got to work on, time looking around to make
- 44:46Sure King creole wasn't hiding behind some corner THAT i
- 44:49didn't even know existed in the. Shop satisfied that my
- 44:52boss wasn't going to scare, me walked over to the
- 44:54counter and stabbed my needle into the counter, doll taking
- 44:57a seat on my stool and sign AS i started my,
- 44:59shift turning my fingers up and down on the. Counter
- 45:02NORMALLY i would see at most four or five customers
- 45:05during an entire. Shift most want a, wish much to my,
- 45:09chagrin and maybe one or two of them want a.
- 45:11Speaker 1: Potion that's a simple.
- 45:13Speaker 4: Procedure you ask for the potion AND i ring you
- 45:16up easy as that don't have to clean anything AND
- 45:19i don't have to help discard a. Body but, unfortunately for.
- 45:22Me not many people want a. Potion i'd rather try
- 45:25and wish for. Something so when a guy came in
- 45:28wearing a beanie and a, HOODIE i was more than
- 45:30willing to bet that he was going to ask for a.
- 45:32Wish barely open my mouth talk to. Him when a
- 45:35gun was shoved in front of my. FACE i reflex.
- 45:38ALMOST i put my hands up, Slowly, easy, MAN i,

- 50:43my best to ignore the increasingly wet and nasty slaps
- 50:47and rips.
- 50:47Speaker 3: Coming from behind.
- 50:48Speaker 4: Me i'm gonna be, honest the fear of what he

- 51:08Speaker 4: King he looked at me with those big black button
- 51:11eyes of his and looked to his, arm which he
- 51:14brought up and showed he was holding a controller for
- 51:16a marionette, doll except it was made of, bones small
- 51:21bones that almost looked like some kind of. Animals of,
- 51:24course those thoughts were dispelled when he lifted his arm
- 51:26up further and produced a small bloody figure attached to
- 51:29the stings of the. Controller i'm SURE i don't need

- 55:24whatever lived in the basement.
- 55:26Speaker 1: Got up with.
- 55:26Speaker 4: Him King creole looked back at the basement door and
- 55:28waited for it to stop. Banging soon enough it. Did
- 55:31we heard the sounds of something being dragged down the.
- 55:33STAIRS i looked at him, then look of anger was
- 55:36on his pale.
- 55:37Speaker 3: Face first Time i'd ever seen him like.
- 55:39Speaker 1: That that hole gets what she, deserves he.
- 55:41Speaker 4: Mumbled low enough to WHERE i assume he THOUGHT i

- 55:57to look at, me a smile on his face once.
- 55:59Again Good, Night, travis my, Boy, yeah turning and walking
- 56:03off back to his. OFFICE i, nodded turned to leave,
- 56:06myself stopped at the, door, though turning back and looking
- 56:08at the basement. Door it's back over Towards King krill's.
- 56:11Office ONCE i Was shrew's in, THERE i made my
- 56:13way back over to the. DOOR i looked at, it
- 56:16noticing the blood coming from underneath the crack of the.
- 56:18Door nelton tried to peer through the. KEYHOLE i didn't
- 56:22seem to think at, first just the usual blackness of the.
- 56:24Basement sided and stood to leave TILL i heard a
- 56:27soft thud come from the. DOOR i turned and raised
- 56:30a brow to, That leaning down, again put my eye
- 56:33to the key. Hole this TIME i was greeted by a, green,
- 56:37shiny cracked. Eye flinching, hard backed up and quickly made
- 56:40my way out of the, shop shaking my head.
- 56:42Speaker 3: Quickly and just getting out of.
- 56:43Speaker 4: THERE i don't know What King creole has down, there
- 56:46AND i really don't want to know, either even if
- 56:48whatever it is keeps begging me to let it.
- 56:51Speaker 1: Out. Interesting, Interesting, interesting this is certainly. FUN i see
- 56:56why people made the connection to oh.
- 56:58Speaker 3: NO i click on part. Four there's an not say for, work.
- 57:02Speaker 1: Oh, no oh, NO.
- 57:06Speaker 4: I certainly see why people make the connection Between tales
- 57:09from The Gas station because it kind of has that
- 57:10note of like a disinterested like employee who just puts up.
- 57:15Speaker 1: With the supernatural stuff that's.
- 57:16Speaker 4: Happening but there is there is a note to this
- 57:20one where there's like a curiosity to.
- 57:23Speaker 3: It our protagonist has The travis has.
- 57:27Speaker 4: Where he's kind of like he's disinterested about stuff like being,
- 57:31robbed but he is curious about like what's the thing
- 57:33in the? Basement stuff like, That AND i think those
- 57:36little questions go a long.
- 57:37Speaker 2: WAY i think, TOO i think that this has just
- 57:40a bit more, Sinister LIKE i think that there's going
- 57:43to be kind of time, when, LIKE i don't, know
- 57:45they're really setting Up king to be a very like
- 57:49bubbly happy, guy but we're getting more and more of
- 57:52these moments where the facade's kind of.
- 57:54Speaker 1: Broken you.
- 57:54Speaker 4: Know, yeah when he said that, line The horgue gets
- 57:57what she, DESERVES i think he's talking about the thing
- 58:00in the.
- 58:00Speaker 1: Basement, yeah, yeah the great the green cracked eye thing for.
- 58:03Speaker 4: Sure, yeah so that's it makes me ask these interesting
- 58:08questions and stuff like the story's. FUN i like the fun.
- 58:11NOTES i like the idea that two people tried to rob.
- 58:13It one of them got thrown to the thing in the,
- 58:15basement the other was turned like they WERE i imagine
- 58:17they were ripped to shreds and then their pieces used
- 58:20to make the voodooed all like their souls trapped in
- 58:22it or, something And King creole collects these. Souls that's
- 58:25a it's a neat. Touch it's a very interesting. DYNAMIC
- 58:30i think it's a ton of fun using a voodoo
- 58:33the half priced voodoo store as a setting. Forward it's
- 58:35a lot of. Fun it's just it's a cool Story
- 58:38i'm vibing so.
- 58:39Speaker 1: Far, YEAH i.
- 58:39Speaker 2: Think that there's enough humor in it so far too
- 58:41that it's been. Fun but then there's also kind of
- 58:43brutal moments like. That i'm hoping that we get a
- 58:46little deeper into some of the other kind of gruesome
- 58:48things outside of these wishes and, Stuff like what else
- 58:50is he? Doing i'm curious if he's kind of like
- 58:52a hell raiser vibe where he's just like this angel
- 58:55of death kind of, thing you, KNOW.
- 58:57Speaker 1: I could see.
- 58:58Speaker 4: THAT i also like the detail that it's slowly getting more,
- 59:01detailed because like the first one was just LIKE.
- 59:04Speaker 1: I work at a voodoo.
- 59:05Speaker 4: Store but each one's giving like more specific, instances we
- 59:09get more of an idea of what's. Happening So i'm
- 59:11excited to keep. Reading at LEAST i say that.
- 59:17Speaker 3: You know right. Now, Again part four had a not
- 59:20safe for work, tax so.
- 59:21Speaker 1: It does have a nice diff. Work so let's see
- 59:23what happens.
- 59:23Speaker 4: Here, well we'll see if this becomes like everything else
- 59:25we do all the time.
- 59:26Speaker 1: Forever so let's go part.
- 59:29Speaker 4: Four so by this, Point i'm pretty sure you guys
- 59:31have a pretty good grasp.
- 59:32Speaker 3: On What King creole is like as a.
- 59:34Speaker 4: Boss it's creepy and a murderer by most definitions of the.
- 59:38Speaker 1: Law.
- 59:38Speaker 4: Right, ALSO i got to Mention travis is a ride
- 59:42or die just no, snitching like need need to get
- 59:45rid of a, gun, sir got.
- 59:46Speaker 1: It he's his main bitch. Dude earlier when he's like all,
- 59:49right WELL i Guess i'm getting.
- 59:50Speaker 2: OFF i just pictured him walking off with like high heels,
- 59:52on and he's just like clicking out of the cling
- 59:54out of the. Store all, right we'll see you next.
- 59:55Time it's like pimply ass walking, out give me leave the.
- 59:59Speaker 4: Light so, sir, yeah something like. THAT i, mean the
- 1:00:06button eyes and sewn up mouths should have been a
- 1:00:08dead giveaway to. That, well he has ways of surprising,
- 1:00:12you like some pointed out he defended me during the
- 1:00:14robbery and the runaway convict. Situation that alone sort of
- 1:00:18tipped the scales to him being pretty all. Right, well
- 1:00:21something happened a few days. Ago it really changed my
- 1:00:24perspective on. Him oh, no that.
- 1:00:27Speaker 1: Intro combined with the not safe for work. Tag oh,
- 1:00:30no it was a lazy.
- 1:00:31Speaker 4: SATURDAY i was leaning back on my newly upgraded rocking.

- 1:00:55figured it was some ghost or. Something SO i heard
- 1:00:59the sounds of Tiny he's training and a little hand
- 1:01:02came off from the other side of the. Counter raised
- 1:01:04my brow with. That quickly looked to the wall of voodoo.
- 1:01:07Dolls i'd one escaped, again thought to. Myself but my
- 1:01:12train of thought was derailed when a childlike voice pulled
- 1:01:14my attention back.

- 1:01:18Speaker 4: Hunter, Huh, hunter innocent of just a little. SHY i

- 1:24:54don't think he would have said my mom always said
- 1:24:56to help people that.
- 1:24:58Speaker 1: Are neat or. WHATEVER i don't feel like he would
- 1:24:59reference her.
- 1:25:00Speaker 4: In my, mind it's like a former romantic interest or
- 1:25:02something like.
- 1:25:03Speaker 1: That, OH i, mean i'd be. Sinister she broke she
- 1:25:06broke my, heart SO i keep her in a.
- 1:25:08Speaker 4: Box, WELL i mean he kills like he kills a
- 1:25:12girl who wanted acne taken care of and stuff like.
- 1:25:14Speaker 2: That right to be, fair it is like you're, SAYING i,
- 1:25:17MEAN i don't think that the woman that wanted her
- 1:25:19acne clear should have.
- 1:25:20Speaker 1: DIED i think that's a.
- 1:25:22Speaker 2: Bit he is a, murderer but it was vanity in a,
- 1:25:25Way like it seems like it's, like, uh you, know
- 1:25:27the other people tried robbing the. Store you THINK i was,
- 1:25:29threatening you, know Threatening travis's. Life it seems like the
- 1:25:34people that are asking for this stuff usually get their
- 1:25:37come up in and it's usually. Selfish LIKE i wonder
- 1:25:39if if somebody was just, like OH i want you
- 1:25:41to help this, person if he would do it if
- 1:25:43it was a selfless, request you, know yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 1:25:47Speaker 4: Uh, potentially like you, said if anyone needs help. HIM
- 1:25:51i THINK i kind of get the idea that he
- 1:25:54used to be a human at some, point like he
- 1:25:56would normal and then a spell happened to him or
- 1:25:58something like. THAT i love the idea that the voodoo
- 1:26:02dolls like can become people and like they all like
- 1:26:05when the mother, leaves she the new mother, leaves she
- 1:26:07waves at all the voodoo dolls and they wave.
- 1:26:09Speaker 1: Back that's the final to, You.
- 1:26:11Speaker 4: Like you said, this it's so rare to have a
- 1:26:14feel good story in one of.
- 1:26:16Speaker 1: The well and it's.
- 1:26:17Speaker 2: CONNECTED i was really bought in and you still have
- 1:26:19the elements of horror in, there you.
- 1:26:21Speaker 1: Know it's it's just what a what a fun that
- 1:26:23that that so far is.
- 1:26:25Speaker 2: My favorite one by. Far like THAT'S i really Enjoyed
- 1:26:28part four a. Lot AND i will say, too do
- 1:26:30you think that maybe the woman was the person who
- 1:26:32changed him into this?
- 1:26:33Speaker 1: Thing? Maybe? Yeah what do you?
- 1:26:36Speaker 4: Say it was a green cracked eye he, saw which
- 1:26:41makes it sound like it's.
- 1:26:41Speaker 1: A doll kind Of that's WHAT i was gonna. Say
- 1:26:43it sounds like a green.
- 1:26:44Speaker 4: Uh button beating button eye or something could be all?
- 1:26:50Speaker 1: Right part? Five part?
- 1:26:52Speaker 4: Five you, know the MORE i work here At Old
- 1:26:55King kreole's half Price Voodoo, shop the more it starts
- 1:26:57question how the HELL i never noticed it? Before Now
- 1:27:00i'm ready to Admit i'm No einstein when it comes
- 1:27:02to this. Town, Sure i've lived here my whole, life
- 1:27:05but even, Then i'm still discovering new. PLACES i didn't
- 1:27:08even know we had A denny's near us until last.
- 1:27:11Week but the fact that so many of our customers
- 1:27:14are high school kids makes me, wonder how COME i
- 1:27:16never heard of this place. Before THEN i look back
- 1:27:18at my track record of socializing and school and, remember, oh,
- 1:27:21yeah that's WHY i never learned to this. PLACE i
- 1:27:24think the REASON i have to clean up so many
- 1:27:25messes here is that a majority of our customers are
- 1:27:28indeed stupid high school. Kids they barge in here thing
- 1:27:31and they got away Around King kreole's, game and every
- 1:27:33single Time i'm the poor idiot that has to clean
- 1:27:35up there's stupid. Mess it's to the point where ANYTIME
- 1:27:39i see a teenager coming to the, SHOP i instinctively
- 1:27:41reach behind the counter for some rubber gloves BECAUSE i
- 1:27:44Know i'll have to wipe.
- 1:27:45Speaker 3: Them off what's left of them off the floor and.
- 1:27:47Speaker 4: WALLS i think the worst case of this was when

- 1:42:25Speaker 2: That LIKE i thought it was going to be that
- 1:42:27they just magically start fusing together or. Whatever BUT i
- 1:42:30like the idea of like an obsessive guy basically pinning
- 1:42:32someone on the floor and just starts sewing their body
- 1:42:34together in like a horribly mutilated.
- 1:42:36Speaker 1: Way pretty.

- 1:55:09Again an awed to silent thanks to, her went to my,
- 1:55:13counter pulling up my, phone started my. Research, well it
- 1:55:17turned out that the only, thing, okay this is actually really.
- 1:55:20Cool this is story development that like that that is
- 1:55:25a woman he knew or whatever that's locked in the.
- 1:55:27Basement and then it's like after he tried to help
- 1:55:31him and he pinned him against the, wall choking, Him he's,
- 1:55:34LIKE i have to do, something but she gives him
- 1:55:36his real. Name so Now King, Creole like if he
- 1:55:40can learn the history Of King. Creole if it's like

- 1:56:03called the cops or, whatever which have no have no
- 1:56:06authority over. Him, Right it's not like the cop could
- 1:56:08have done. Anything he's fucked With King creole twice or
- 1:56:11broken his rules. TWICE i almost think that he's using
- 1:56:14him as a host or a soul or, something.
- 1:56:16Speaker 1: You know WHAT i. Mean he needs he needs that
- 1:56:18kid right. Now he Needs. Travis, yeah, yeah.

- 2:13:30AS i, could managed to rip out the entire length
- 2:13:32of his, future causing him to drop me and stumble,
- 2:13:35backwards gagging and. Coughing he looked at me with the
- 2:13:38black ooze dripping out of his mouth much quicker than
- 2:13:40it did.
- 2:13:41Speaker 1: Before acting, QUICKLY i.
- 2:13:43Speaker 4: Ran up to him and pushed him over with all my,
- 2:13:45weight fishing inside his coat pockets as we both stumbled

- 2:13:50ITEMS i knew he, needed his spool of black thread
- 2:13:54and the key to the. Basement Thanks, CHARLES i shouted
- 2:13:57with a, chuckle standing and booking it towards the library.

- 2:14:40happen to? Me opening the doors to the, shop everything was, dead.
- 2:14:43Silent even the rusty bell was much quieter than it usually.

- 2:14:49that they were all starting to rot and fall off the.
- 2:14:52Speaker 1: Shelves must have really weakened.
- 2:14:54Speaker 4: Him renewed by, THIS i strode towards the basement and
- 2:14:57stopped his. OFFICE i looked over to it and changed
- 2:15:01my course to look through. It maybe there was something in.
- 2:15:03There going into the clean, OFFICE i saw most of
- 2:15:06WHAT i had seen the first, time tidy office and

- 2:15:54on my way.
- 2:15:55Speaker 3: Down finally touched solid.
- 2:15:56Speaker 4: GROUND i was in the basement after all this, time

- 2:16:42Speaker 1: UP i cheated on, him.
- 2:16:44Speaker 4: She, mumbled looking at me with the one eye she.
- 2:16:46Had her face was cracked and her right eye was,
- 2:16:49missing but the other showing the FLASHLIGHT i had trained on.
- 2:16:51Speaker 9: Her she was a nice, guy but he asked me

- 2:17:29Speaker 4: Fragile something had to be chewing on all these corpses down.
- 2:17:31Here she was the only living thing down.
- 2:17:33Speaker 1: Here it's stupid, idiots she.

- 2:17:41Speaker 9: Around they tortured, him beat, him put the eyes out
- 2:17:45of his, head and cut his head off when it
- 2:17:48was all said and, done.
- 2:17:50Speaker 3: She, explained looking up at me for some kind of.
- 2:17:51Speaker 1: Sympathy what you were just gonna fuck him up and
- 2:17:54steal his. MONEY i don't believe you for a. Second

- 2:18:02Huff didn't make. Sense the way she had put it
- 2:18:05at least what she, began obviously trying to fix her.
- 2:18:10Lie oh that's, interesting, Okay but she gave up in,
- 2:18:15sighed rubbing her cracked face and nodding behind her, hands
- 2:18:19looking back up at me with an exhausted.
- 2:18:21Speaker 1: Face.
- 2:18:22Speaker 9: FINE i wanted to get rid of, him BUT i
- 2:18:24wasn't strong enough to just.
- 2:18:26Speaker 1: Come out and SAY i didn't love him.
- 2:18:27Speaker 9: Anymore he spent every single moment of his time playing
- 2:18:30gigs WHICH i had to sing.
- 2:18:32Speaker 1: IN i hated. IT i hated all of.
- 2:18:36Speaker 9: That so When henry came up and swept me off my,
- 2:18:38FEET i decided to be selfish for once in my.
- 2:18:41Speaker 4: Life decided to be for selfish and have this man murdered.
- 2:18:45Speaker 1: VIOLENTLY i, mean, like what the fuck are you talking?
- 2:18:47Speaker 4: About this is interesting, though that they're both bad people
- 2:18:50effectively of the.
- 2:18:51Speaker 2: Most, well also just kind of delusional to like how
- 2:18:54is still hung up on this for what over one
- 2:18:56hundred years or? Whatever like it's just, yeah they're made
- 2:18:59for chel literally shouted back at, me stumbling to her

- 2:19:06as eventual voodoo.
- 2:19:07Speaker 4: Ghost, snickered backing up from her and heading back towards the.
- 2:19:11Stairs she followed. Me anger's still obvious on her.
- 2:19:14Speaker 9: Face If henry hadn't done such a shit job hiding his,
- 2:19:16body his mother wouldn't have discovered it and turned him
- 2:19:19into that, freak.
- 2:19:20Speaker 4: She, mumbled turning and looking around the wall she must
- 2:19:22have looked at for almost one hundred years.
- 2:19:24Speaker 9: Now now nothing but his punching, back.
- 2:19:27Speaker 3: She, sighed looking back at me with hopeless.
- 2:19:29Speaker 1: Expression he fixes me and breaks me over and over.
- 2:19:33Speaker 4: Again that explains the porcelain cracks and stuff like, That
- 2:19:37like how she goes down the stairface and, shatters puts
- 2:19:40her back, together breaks her.

- 2:26:54Speaker 1: Behind and that is he half Price Voodoo. Store, man
- 2:26:59that was a fucking. Grid that was.
- 2:27:01Speaker 3: Fun that was a whole lot of.
- 2:27:02Speaker 2: Fun interesting, too is, that you? KNOW i not to
- 2:27:05say that OUR i don't Think. Travis once, AGAIN i
- 2:27:07don't Think travis deserved. It but he also watched how
- 2:27:10many people die and just kind of clean.
- 2:27:11Speaker 4: Up, yeah, no, no, no, no it's desertly.
- 2:27:14Speaker 1: Right he.
- 2:27:14Speaker 4: Was he allowed this to happen and did. Nothing as
- 2:27:19far as the story, goes he was a willing participant in,
- 2:27:21it holding people, down letting people, die stuff like. That
- 2:27:25so it's only fitting that he would be end up
- 2:27:29just Like King creole because he was willing to go
- 2:27:32along with the monsters that he was.
- 2:27:34Speaker 1: Creating. Yeah, YEAH i, MAN i don't. KNOW i really
- 2:27:37liked this.
- 2:27:37Speaker 2: One really, fun not a huge, backstory not overly, complicated
- 2:27:42just a guy who got cheated on by a, girl
- 2:27:44took it way too far and has basically just been
- 2:27:46living immortal a in this half priced voodoo store just
- 2:27:51because his mom was a witch. DOCTOR i just think
- 2:27:53that's like just such a fun little. Premise you get
- 2:27:55some nice little and it's funny too because basically parts
- 2:27:58one through four are all just lead up to just
- 2:28:01basically being Showing travis's. Compliance he's just like our navigator
- 2:28:05through these, stories but also just kind of showing how
- 2:28:09simple and how easy it is to kind of get
- 2:28:11swept into being, Like, okay WELL i guess this person's,
- 2:28:13dead So i'll clean it, up and then he kind
- 2:28:15of gets his come up and in the end as,
- 2:28:17Well so a lot of.
- 2:28:19Speaker 1: Fun. Yeah, yeah it's like you start out with.
- 2:28:24Speaker 4: Just the basic intro of like here's the story of
- 2:28:27a half prize voodoo. Store i'm just a guy that works,
- 2:28:29there and then we get our. Vignettes but THEN i
- 2:28:32like how the story started, Connected like in the very first,
- 2:28:34story we get a mention of something banging on the
- 2:28:35basement door and it sounds like a wild, animal but
- 2:28:38then that becomes the main part of the.
- 2:28:39Speaker 1: Story and like in part four we get.
- 2:28:42Speaker 4: The little Girl, olivia who has given a new mother
- 2:28:44through the voodoo all and that character comes back twice
- 2:28:47as a figure that helps us through the. Story AND
- 2:28:50i like how it became like or like the mention that,
- 2:28:52earlier When King kreole's mouth one of his threats got,
- 2:28:56clipped this black goo leaked out of, him and then
- 2:28:58that black goo needs to be fixed or else like
- 2:29:01that damages, Him like maybe that's this weak, spot but
- 2:29:04we'll never know because the story didn't go. THERE i
- 2:29:05also think it's incredibly impressive given the tone of the.
- 2:29:10STORY i guess for it to kind of in.
- 2:29:12Speaker 1: On you, know our.
- 2:29:13Speaker 4: Protagonist, loses but there's so many cool, things like with
- 2:29:18the history and. Stuff this reminded me so much of
- 2:29:20an Old goosebumps.
- 2:29:21Speaker 1: Book yes, yes, yes, yes yes exactly.
- 2:29:24Speaker 4: Even down to, like, Oh i'm a puppet at the sore,
- 2:29:27now you, KNOW.
- 2:29:28Speaker 2: I kind of felt like the Very Twilight zone ending
- 2:29:31of you, know the person got their come up ins
- 2:29:33or it's, like you, know it's the dark, ending the
- 2:29:35scary ending with the. Person you, know you don't get the,
- 2:29:38happy the, happy, fun everybody's safe. Ending do you think
- 2:29:42that the do you Think olivia's new mom that daw
- 2:29:45was maybe somebody he knew in his life that he
- 2:29:47transformed and he's, like, oh she'll make a good, mother
- 2:29:49but she's just as controlled AS i think.
- 2:29:52Speaker 4: She's older than, that because he always says he described and.
- 2:29:55Britch so it's probably could have been a woman who
- 2:29:59got turned into to a voodoo doll and then was
- 2:30:01passed around for centuries until it got into his.
- 2:30:03Speaker 2: Hands it could, be, YEAH i mean his mom was
- 2:30:05A it couldn't be something that it's attached to.
- 2:30:07Speaker 1: His mom or something with her witch practices as.
- 2:30:10Speaker 2: Well you, KNOW i think that this story too really
- 2:30:14rode that line well of like it wasn't so hammy
- 2:30:18and like so many cheesy, lines like there was a
- 2:30:20there was enough cheese in there for it to be
- 2:30:22kind of charming and, fun you, know like it. Was
- 2:30:26it was a nice light, read and then it would
- 2:30:27like peper in really like kind of like vulgarly like
- 2:30:31just violent. Moments and even the way that it wraps itself,
- 2:30:34up it doesn't linger too. Long it doesn't like completely
- 2:30:36kick the whole tone of the story out at the.
- 2:30:39Speaker 1: End it feels to. Punch it. Feels it feels like
- 2:30:43a good tone that it. Keeps.
- 2:30:46Speaker 4: Like sure it would be funny in, moments but they
- 2:30:48were never so much so that it pulled away from everything.
- 2:30:51Else and sure our setting is, spectacular like it's naturally
- 2:30:54kind of, campy but it never it never pushes that
- 2:30:57button too.
- 2:30:58Speaker 2: Hard, well it just like happened. It it didn't cheapen
- 2:31:01the environment that we were, in is WHAT I, yeah
- 2:31:03it doesn't overstay its welcome. Compliments it pretty well.
- 2:31:06Speaker 4: Well it did a very good balance between like having
- 2:31:10fun and also like taking itself.
- 2:31:12Speaker 2: SERIOUSLY i, think AND i, THINK i mean, EXACTLY i
- 2:31:15think he just nailed. IT i was just gonna, say
- 2:31:17even like the idea of like basically this fucking one
- 2:31:20piece character walking around and, stuff and never DID i
- 2:31:23think it was like so it didn't feel like fanfake
- 2:31:26like BECAUSE i feel like a lot of people in
- 2:31:27these stories it's like over explaining how like you, know
- 2:31:31robust and like exotic they, look or you, know like
- 2:31:34how kind of crazy they. ARE i think people get
- 2:31:37in the fanfake area to where it's, like, well he
- 2:31:38looks like this and this and. That but really it
- 2:31:41was pretty straightforward and it just like he bled, well
- 2:31:43like his character bled well into how he looks and
- 2:31:46how he, acts and it just was, REALLY i don't,
- 2:31:48know cohesive.
- 2:31:49Speaker 1: THROUGHOUT i just enjoyed. It it was a good. One
- 2:31:51it was a lot of.
- 2:31:51Speaker 2: Fun i'm really happy to also, TOO i think that
- 2:31:55each part was like a really nice like it JUST
- 2:31:58pasd really, nice Like i'm glad. That i'm glad that
- 2:32:01like halfway through it wasn't like this place is kind
- 2:32:03OF i need to start digging, in like he really
- 2:32:05didn't start digging intoll like part, five which once AGAIN
- 2:32:08i like That travis is not. Innocent travis is kind
- 2:32:11of just like at he pays for.
- 2:32:14Speaker 4: It in the, end like exactly Exactlyuences.
- 2:32:17Speaker 2: Travis travis is selfish because all he gives a fuck
- 2:32:19about is his. Paycheck And i'm glad And i'm glad
- 2:32:22that he gets his come up ins in the, end because,
- 2:32:24he like that kind of, character deserves. It the only
- 2:32:27death in the story Where i'm like, okay which and
- 2:32:29to be, fair they did show it early on is
- 2:32:31the girl who ran and called the cops, whatever because
- 2:32:34because they they do a great The Voodoo clerk does
- 2:32:37a great job with Making King creole, like oh, well
- 2:32:41he's kind of nice because he saved the, girl you.
- 2:32:44Know oh, well you know he does have a little
- 2:32:45quirks here and. There but then it's, like, no he's just,
- 2:32:48Evil like he's just an evil. Guy like one good
- 2:32:50thing you do doesn't justify the amount of horrible shit
- 2:32:54that you do as.
- 2:32:54Speaker 1: Well, so, oh in, all this is A this is a.
- 2:32:59BANGER i enjoyed.
