I love the new format! Look forward to each Wednesday’s release.
Episodes are well paced entertaining. While the stories are gruesome, the storytelling is calming.
The show was good when it focused on the spooky elements, but since the name change and the obvious change in direction, it’s been down hill and boring with paste and repeat kinds of stories since. Too much focus on the true crime element and the ever present obviously political mini rants within stories about the mistreatment of woman ( which I’m strongly against) hiding as spooky stories, this coming from a hard leaning liberal. After binging 80 episodes I’m unsubscribing.
What in the Chat GPT is this writing? At least this podcast is comforting in confirming that we’re still a ways away from AI being able to pull off good writing.
This podcast provides me the eerie and chill vibes of the past lores and haunts, at the same time entertaining to listen to as I do my homework! I think that this is an interesting approach to podcast if we are looking for thrill!!!
Love,
