This week on Hysteria 51, we’re serving up a double feature where folklore meets… fecal science. First, we head to rural India, where a woman dodges an arranged marriage by leaving behind a perfectly curated “I turned into a snake” crime scene: a 1.5m shed snakeskin, her jewelry, and clothes arranged like a supernatural mic-drop, sending the village into full naagin panic while police gently remind everyone they’re hunting a person, not a serpent.

Then we hop across the globe to Nantucket, where the island’s wastewater has been tested and the results are basically: “Historic charm, hydrangeas… and cocaine markers popping above national and regional averages.” Because nothing says coastal getaway like your sewer system quietly yelling, “PARTY’S NOT OVER.”

Hit play for weird news, wild choices, and the kind of reality that makes you ask, “Are we okay as a species?” (Spoiler: probably not.)
