A dreamlike experience of curiosity and calm. Each episode has been so fun since I began listening. The mood is so well set depending on the content of the day;you feel the Library is a real place you've come into. Also, the episodes that tell a story within the Midnight Library universe are just as engaging, if not more so, than the regular episodes. It's so interesting to peak behind the curtain,as it were, into another moment beyond the enchanting tales from the Reading Room.
This is a spookily delightful podcast.
Miranda and Mr. Darling are a fantastic double act!
Love the stories told. What I particularly love is the ‘tongue in cheek’ humour alongside the poems that are recited.
If you want to be entertained and learn a fact or two, then this is the podcast for you!
Love the show can’t get enough you
I couldn’t get through an episode! The voice was really annoying, the podcast not captivating, but maybe little kids will enjoy it during Halloween 😊
Thank you for all the hard work in creating such anticipated and well enjoyed story sessions. The village has no idea…about anything really, but we do. So thanks.

The show combines gothic storytelling, folklore, and macabre history with theatrical narration and witty in-universe banter. Episodes center on haunted objects, mythic creatures, and historical oddities, often delivered as staged readings in a candlelit, reading-room setting. Unique features include crowd-pleasing humor, meta-commentary about the show, and regular sponsor/membership pushes that blend with the narrative. Fans can expect a rich, immersive experience that educates as it entertains, with a strong emphasis on atmosphere and storytelling craft rather than straightforward narration.
