This week on Be Afraid, we bring our season of horror to a close just as everyone imagined it would end—with a Christmas special. Join us as we share scary ghost stories and tales of the glories of Christmases long, long ago. Whenever or wherever you may be listening, Happy Holidays, from the Be Afraid family to yours.
