  • Highly Entertaining

    This is quickly becoming one of my favorite podcasts. It is a remarkably well researched deep dive into some of histories most famous (and obscure) spooks, specters, cryptids, and creepies. With a healthy dose of humor, sketicism, some fantastic guests, and the ocasional old timey radio play Least Haunted brings its unique voice to a new topic every other week. Check out the latest episode or hop on the backwards carousel of time to chek out the archive.

  • May not be full of ghosts but it is full of laughs and facts!

    This podcast is my go to whenever I need to listen to something that will make me both laugh and think. Cody and Garth are quick witted and treat every epsiode with as much enthusiasm as the very first episode and don't get me started on how creative and amazing the holiday episodes are. I look forward every other Friday to a new episode!
