We are a group of friends who share a love of unexplained mysteries, true crime and ghost stories. Every other week we gather campfire style to share our favorite stories based on a spooky theme.
Shocktober is brilliant. Watching 31 horror movies in a month is a true challenge and a great way to steep in the Halloween season. What is not so brilliant about Shocktober is that most horror movies are TERRIBLE, and watching 31 of them makes you wonder if you even like them anymore. Halfway through the … Continue reading Episode 33: Shocktober
Get ready for our SECOND Halloween Special! This year we are taking on the enduring legend of Jack the Ripper! Each member of Peripheral researched a man we thought could have been Jack the Ripper and we each present our case. Our number one fan (sorry Devin’s mom, we love you), and former podcast guest … Continue reading Episode 32: Jack the Ripper Halloween Special!
We decided to take on an entire continent this week on Peripheral. It was no small feat considering that Australia is full of nightmares. Don’t believe us? NIGHTMARE ISLAND CHECKLIST: Sad history of aboriginal genocide and baby stealing. Once boasted the highest number of insane asylums per capita. Home to countless murderous mammals, reptiles, insects and … Continue reading Episode 31: Australia
In this episode of Peripheral we dug up our favorite stories about the mysteries of space and serve them hot and ready to your ears. We will sort of answer questions similar in tone to the ones postulated below: Did fuzzy aliens send zeppelins down to earth for the purpose of abducting humans? Have mysterious … Continue reading Episode 30: Space Oddities

Your butts should be held, and your y’alls should be ready for this, because we are going to pull some horrors out of the nightmare bag! We hope you enjoy … Continue reading Episode 29: Grab Bag II
The best part of an urban legend is that it doesn’t matter how ridiculous it is, it still gets under your skin. Does it make logical sense that saying a phrase three times into a mirror would conjure a ghost child? Of course it doesn’t. Will you wake up in a bathtub full of ice … Continue reading Episode 28: Urban Legends
No one likes being hassled. Unwanted touch or conversation can be annoying at best (a co-worker sharing an update of their hysterectomy scars while you wash your mug in the breakroom), or downright nightmarish (realizing the dude sitting behind you on the bus has been blowing air gently onto the back of your neck for … Continue reading Episode 27: Paranormal Attacks
Well, we have been dancing around this topic for 25 episodes. This week we are finally talking about serial killers. Get ready to hear about some severely broken humans who killed for a variety of terrible reasons. We have murderers fueled by lycanthrophy, plum cakes, prophetic dreams and REVENGE! We hope you enjoy it! … Continue reading Episode 26: Serial Killers
Paranormal reality shows are the perfect trash television. Nothing soothes a hangover better than watching dum dums in night vision, screaming and running from “ghosts.” The issue with our favorite ghost hunting shows is how prolific they are. Ghost Hunters has filmed over 200 episodes and has at least three spin off shows. Ghost Adventures … Continue reading Episode 25: Destination Hunter Facts
Well you knew this episode was coming, since our Peripheral family crest should have “STEEL BEAMS” written on it in Latin. Conspiracy theories are our jam. We trust no one and believe every subreddit. This week we hunker down in our nazi moon-base to broadcast our tales of weather control facilities, Illuminati bunkers, attempted … Continue reading Episode 24: Conspiracy Theories
