This week, Sophie’s “in prison” (allegedly), Cassie’s back from bum chaos, and we spiral into everything from weaver fish attacks on Irish beaches to the quicksand that will kill you, the lake that silently murdered thousands, a snake-handling cult that won’t stop dying, and why Bigfoot is basically a daddy issue. It’s a hot mess of creeps, chaos, and killer nature – just how we like it.Want the full episode ad-free, bonus creeps, and behind-the-scenes of Sophie’s “jail time”? 👉 patreon.com/thecreepdive Hosted on Acast.
