    The Musician That Made a Deal With the Devil
    Apr 23 2026
    A failed musician disappears… and returns months later as a master. This is the legend of Robert Johnson, the man said to have made a deal with the devil. Stories of haunted crossroads rituals and ghostly recordings that sound like more than one man playing, all surrounded Robert's life. Together, we'll explore the origins of the myth and the tragic reality behind it. Was it supernatural, or simply the cost of genius?

    Apr 17 2026
    In the city of Guaymas, Sonora, Mexico, Edwin's uncle has a small ranch that has been haunted by a commonly-found object in the desert: rocks. At odd times, rocks can be heard striking the roofs of his neighbors without an explanation. But that's not all. Sightings of ghosts and other entities have started surfacing since the phenomenon started. Could they all be connected?

  • The Black-Eyed Children of Abilene

    The Black-Eyed Children of Abilene
    Feb 26 2026
    On a quiet night in 1996, a routine stop to pay an internet bill turned into one of the most infamous paranormal encounters in modern history. Two children. Coal-black eyes. And a single chilling demand: let us in. Tonight, we uncover the origin of the Black Eyed Kids.
    In the spring of that year, journalist Brian Bethel experienced something that would spark one of the internet’s most enduring urban legends. After sharing his story online, others began coming forward with eerily similar accounts. Pale faces, monotone voices, completely black eyes, and an unsettling need for permission to enter.
    In this episode, we explore the original encounter, the wave of reports that followed, and the disturbing lore surrounding what have come to be known as the Black Eyed Kids.
    Are they demons? Extradimensional beings? Or something even stranger?

  • The Skeleton Saint: Faith, Delusion, and Crime

    The Skeleton Saint: Faith, Delusion, and Crime
    Jan 16 2026
    In this episode, we examine the disappearance of six-year-old Noel Rodriguez-Alvarez, a medically fragile child who was last seen months before authorities were alerted. What started as a routine welfare check turned into a disturbing investigation involving deception, alleged abuse, and a mother who fled the country just days after being questioned.
    But this story doesn’t end with a manhunt. As investigators uncovered the beliefs that the mother had, attention turned to a controversial and often misunderstood folk saint: La Santa Muerte. Through anthropology, history, and firsthand accounts, we explore whether this figure represents something sinister... or whether fear and cultural bias have distorted her meaning.
    This episode contains sensitive material and explores themes of child harm, belief, and justice. Listener discretion is strongly advised.

  • Ghosts in the Fog: A True Railroad Haunting

    Ghosts in the Fog: A True Railroad Haunting
    Dec 18 2025
    In the hills outside Philadelphia lies Duffy’s Cut, a stretch of railroad haunted by whispers, strange lights, and a century-old secret.
    What began as a ghost story passed down through generations slowly revealed a hidden chapter of American history involving immigrant laborers, fear-driven violence, and a truth deliberately buried. This episode explores how folklore, science, and persistence converged to give voice to the forgotten dead and asks whether the spirits were ever really silent.

  • The Ghost Sickness: True Documented Cases of Mass Spiritual Possession in Malaysia

    The Ghost Sickness: True Documented Cases of Mass Spiritual Possession in Malaysia
    Oct 17 2025
    Horror strikes in the schools of rural Malaysia as girls suddenly begin screaming, claiming that there are evil spirits around them. And in a shoe factory, more women (up to 30 at a time) begin acting strangely and displaying supernatural strength. In another case, a Chinese family in Malaysia begins experiencing a spiritual possession; something that only a bomoh, a spiritual healer, can help with. What makes these creepy cases so bizarre is that they were studied by psychiatrists through interviews, analysis, and professional diagnosis. Even to this day, they are considered to be cases of mass spiritual possession.

    In this horror story, we'll explore the forests and rivers of Mexico exploring stories of duendes, "the little people", that have haunted generations in Latin America. Where did these stories come from and were they always considered works of the devil? I'll uncover chilling accounts of stolen souls, colonial battles over indigenous spirits, and the survival of ancient folklore in the shadows.
