The sound quality is awful and the hosts voice is so monotone that I’m not sure if it’s just AI? There’s way too much rambling going on and no expression which makes it so hard to focus on the stories.
I have been listening since 2022 and it still scares me just as much as it did when I listened to my first episode.
My only issue, and I don’t think it’s a show issue, is that I have been unsubscribed 3 times. I’ll be excited to listen and I can’t find it so I search it then I have to refollow.
I love Kevin from Liverpool. I been listening to him for years and a lot of stuff he said over the years I’m not so much but on a recent episode he had a episode called holy demon this is irresponsible and dangerous of him.

He doesn’t care about misleading people encouraging them to go into darker stuff. So if you have young ch... more
I enjoyed this podcast many seasons ago but lately it just seems overdone. The stories seem very embellished, sometimes childish in nature, and always include some kind of demon. Not my cup of tea.
I’m new to the show. I love a paranormal spooky ghost story! I listened to the last episode first, the relic. and I was blown away! Can’t wait to listen to more episodes
