First of October’s many “gift stories” of the Halloween season, I think you should stick
With TV from now on your Podcast is poor and hate the USA stories which there have been many, sorry but true
Apple Podcasts1NEson30United Kingdom10 days ago - Great podcast
I listen during the day when going about my housework. There’s no way I’d listen to this podcast at nighttime. I’d be too freaked out! The host, Danny Robbins is really engaging and there’s excitement in his voice as he tells every story. I’ve had many paranormal experiences myself, so of course I am and always will be…team believer!

I truly enjoy each episode. I listen to them at least twice. They are packed with interesting facts and you get to listen to the POV of people who don’t believe in anything paranormal. I find that incredibly fascinating.

All the hammy narration and unsubtle, ‘spooky’ background music in the world can’t render these weak stories uncanny. It’s long past time this podcast was retired.
