  • Poor narration

    Listed to several October 2025 episodes and had to stop. Narration and background noises are very tinny and gave me a headache. Like nails on a chalkboard. Also couldn’t understand the narrator most of the time. Sounds like reading a book outloud in monotone.

  • Creepy tales

    I’m really enjoying the podcast. Love your accents guys and you do such a good job of telling these stories, some of which are classics and some are completely new to me. I’m really loving binging through older episodes even though I was first enticed by the Halloween countdown episodes. Keep it up!
