    Your latest episode has nothing paranormal about it.

  • Going downhill fast

    I’ve been a listener for many years, listened to the whole backlog before it got stuck behind a paywall. In the last few months it seems like every single caller is talking about their religious beliefs, specifically Christian, and that is getting old very quickly.

  • I love this podcast so much. It's been a favorite of mine for years. I listen with my two young boys in the car all the time. The stories are spooky but not terrifying and no curse words so the kids can listen! I highly recommend!

  • The Best of the Best!

    I have played this pod at actual campfires, and given many of my family members nightmares for years to come. There are so many classic campfire tales covered in this pod, and a back catalog stretching back years! Jim is so lovable, and the Campfire community is just wonderful. I love this show.

Worse Than A Ghost - Jim Harold's Campfire 718
Q: Do you think it's possible they didn't recognize you because you were older?
It's possible, but I'd like to think that I could recognize their faces.
Haunted By A Djinn - Jim Harold's Campfire 716
Q: Do you think it was maybe like a time slip where you got a glimpse into another time?
Tiffany muses that recalling the experience now, a time slip makes more sense because the figure was focused and did not acknowledge their presence.

Q: Do you think it's from the butcher shop? Do you think it goes way back before that? What do you think?
I think it probably goes back before that.
