The Deadly Tea Podcast
The Deadly Tea Podcast ☕🖤
Hosted by Marie Zambrano & Savannah Zambrano—a duo who talks about everything (and probably overshares)—The Deadly Tea is where the darkest, most unsettling true stories come to spill. Paranormal encounters, real-life horror, small-town and out-of-town true crime, or that deadly tea everyone whispers about but never says out loud.
If it followed you, scared you, changed you, or made you question reality—this is your place. We only accept true stories.
