THE RETURN! Ep. 51 - The Tale of the Quiet Librarian

10/31/2023
Oh hey guys. What have you been up to? Anything to catch us up on because WE'RE BACK BABY! The last pod of #MonsterCast is a doozy and we've been anxiously awaiting releasing it. What better time than Halloween to bring back the creepiest show on the Network! Don't call it comeback....... except it IS! You've been asking and Sara and Jeremy RETURN with a brand new episode of #AreYouAfraidOfThePodcast. For the comeback episode they're picking up right where they left off in Season 4 of the series and taking a look at perhaps the biggest overreaction to noise of all time in The Tale of the Quiet Librarian. A library is haunted by the ghost of a former librarian who dislikes noisy children. This pod wrestles with big questions like is starving children to death a reasonable response to them making noise? What is in that notebook that makes you risk life and limb? When did sleevless mock turtlenecks become acceptable fashion? AND SO MUCH MORE! It's good to be back. Let's get spooky! THE TALE OF THE QUIET LIBRARIAN is available NOW on Paramount+.
