Deep within the redwood forest of the Northern California coastline sits a town that is mostly unheard of. It is hidden by fog and hard to find, but once you get to this area, there is no leaving. Sandcastle is one of the many entrances to Purgatory and settles between the gateways of Heaven and Hell. Every day is a new day where crime is confused with the atrocities of the underworld. The preternatural creatures fight for the right of humans to live or die while science continues to confuse the human mind. The fight between good and evil begins in Sandcastle.Contact InfoEmail:spookyboo@scarystorytime.comPostal MailBoo Rhodes4300 BLACK AVE #5335PLEASANTON, CA 94566Call the show and leave a message or a story of up to 3 minutes707-SPOOKYB (707-776-6592)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spooky-boo-s-scary-story-time-horror-stories-of-sandcastle--2906730/support.
