Today's podcast will feature three stories that all involve people who were trapped with no way out. The audio from all three of these stories has been pulled from our main YouTube channel and has been remastered for today's episode. The links to the original YouTube videos are in the description. The first story you'll hear is called Escalation, and after you hear this story, you'll likely never feel safe on an escalator again. The second story you'll hear is called Volunteer, and it's about a swimmer who mysteriously goes missing in a lake, which prompts a local man to come in to help. And the third and final story you'll hear is called The Messiest Place, and it's about a disappearance inside of a hospital that nobody can explain. But before we get into that story, if you're a fan of the strange, dark, and mysterious delivered in story format, then you've come to the right place because that's all we do, and we upload four times a week: Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Fridays. So if that's of interest to you, please replace all of the Follow button's toilet paper with duct tape. Okay, let's get into our first story called Escalation.
