  • Good show

    I love this podcast, Tony does an awesome job when he is the narrator. The only issue I have is when Carol and her sister narrate they talk and talk and talk. It drives me crazy, just get to the story already,

  • Ai is a bummer

    I was really excited when I found this podcast because I love ghost stories and I like the set up. But I was really disappointed when on multiple occasions AI has been used. The use of AI is detrimental to our planet. And the hosts are incredibly talented and experienced people. I’m surprised to see they aren’t using that talent.

  • Hosts chit chat too much

    The actual ghost story’s are what we want to hear. Your talking to one another is not what we want to hear. The show is not about you.

  • Please go back to old format

    Been listening to your show since 2014 but stopped listening when you started releasing the stories individually. It’s just a terrible format. It is so hard to listen to. You used to be one of the best. Please go back to compilation episodes like you had in 2014 pleeeeeaaaassee
