Didn't anyone tell you? Podcasts are not for the faint of heart...

To kick off the start of spooky season, we're excited to release a very special episode filled with ghoulish tales told by the whole gang here at Dark Adaptation. Enjoy!

In the 1930s, Joe Ball was the owner of a tavern called the Sociable Inn located on Highway 181 near Elmendorf, Texas. The tavern was always busy – business was boomin’ – but Joe had a problem... He had a hard time keeping waitresses employed because they all seemed to find work elsewhere and disappear into the night. He had another problem – neighbours were complaining about the smell coming from his gator pit. That’s right. While the Sociable Inn was known for many things, like its fine brewskis and even finer waitresses, its most memorable feature was the alligator pit behind the tavern. Join us as we discuss "The Alligator Man", Joe Ball, and the wild case that surrounds him, his tavern, and of course, his gators.

Betty watched as Peter got out of bed and headed down the stairs. She heard him answer the door saying, “Yes? Isn’t it kind of late for this sort of thing?” She couldn’t make out the response of the person at the door – she just heard a strange voice that sounded to her like a woman impersonating a man. Suddenly, she heard a pop, then a thump, then silence. As she hurried downstairs to see what was happening, she heard a car outside speed off into the night, the screeching tires faded into the screech of her own terrified screams as she looked down at Peter, who was sprawled out on the floor, unconscious, with blood pouring out of his chest...
