Ep. 139: Medical Mysteries: Monsters in the Mind & Other Spooky Stories

What’s scarier than ghosts and goblins? The medical mysteries that hide in plain sight. In this year’s Halloween special, hear three true stories that sound like ghost tales but come straight from the pediatric ward. 

Each story unfolds like a mystery, with clues, red herrings, and real-life science behind the scares. 

Listen if you dare… and see if you can solve the cases before Dr. Wendy reveals the truth.
