It was a dark and stormy night, the wind howled against the rain-speckled windows of Pierre's shed. Inside, three hooded figures gathered around a tea-stained table, pushed aside their podcast microphones and began an unholy chant. Lightning crackled through the brooding sky as, within the walls of the haunted chamber, the spookiest games were summoned forth.
That's right, it's Halloween week, and the Boys are back to recount the scariest moments of the year. Pierre's been haunted by late-night shopping anomalies, Sarah's spooked by their offshore adventures and Glenn's unnerved by revisiting his safe havens. Plus a long list of terrifying tales from the Discord.
But before all that, the Boys catch up on what they've been playing this week. Pierre has found such a Pierre game: maths and war. What more could the man want? Sarah's headed back to the 70s to get fired before things go awry and Glenn's got his adrenaline fix as he speeds around planets in a galaxy far, far away.
