The host talks too much and just seems to rant, and there is way too many ads for such short episodes. I usually skip this pod bc of it and will listen if I have nothing else. It has potential!
Rebroadcast “classic” after rebroadcast “classic” then occasional new episode, then more rebroadcast. Why do podcast hosts work so hard to build a loyal audience and then just abandon both the concept and the audience?
Glynn’s beautiful, heartfelt storytelling at the beginning always sets the perfect vibe for this, sometimes legit terrifying, other times very funny, always intriguing, paranormal lore. Been a huge fan for years and I’ll never stop listening! Thank you for keeping the mystery alive ✨
The ads and Glynn’s introductory stories are getting out of control. I used to really like this podcast, but I’m finding myself fast forwarding through most of the nonsense in order to get to the stories. The actual stories are great, but the podcast as a whole has lost a ton of magic.
I heard one of these episodes on Old God's of Appalachia, and now Spooked is a favorite! I've listened to all the episodes in just over a month, I'm addicted. The host is great and the stories have a great variety; some are scary while others are weird, some are downright creepy while others are hauntingly beautiful.
