- Almost there but AWESOME!!!!
LOVE the topics, stories, narration, cadence... 8mins of yammer in the intro not relevant to the story isn't necessary. All the rest? Perfect!

Apple Podcasts5Ryland HannumUnited States4 months ago - Well researched programme
This podcast is excellent. Sarah is great at uncovering intriguing stories and scripting the programme to keep it pacey and engaging. I listen to a lot of podcasts and I don’t know how you manage to find so many stories that I haven’t heard before. The mother- son dynamic is unique too. Am I the only one who mutters out loud ‘yes I am’ in Toby voice when he is unable to join the podcast?

France4 months ago - Adorable meets Spooky
I love this! The host is a Mom who often includes her teenage son on many of the episode. They both have nice soothing voices and beautiful accents that match their personalities. It casts a wide net over the para/supernatural stories. Bringing us scary but in a comfortable, sweet way.
