For Officer Tucker, years of patrolling the lonely highways and forgotten backroads of rural Kansas have taught him that most late-night calls end with paperwork, not nightmares. But when a report of trespassers draws him to the charred remains of an abandoned grain elevator, he stumbles into something far older—and far more disturbing—than simple criminal activity.

This week on Drew Blood's Dark Tales, author Aaron Shotwell invites listeners into a waking nightmare where sleep becomes escape, time becomes meaningless, and one mysterious black pill changes everything. What begins as a desperate attempt to disappear from reality spirals into a vision of devastation so vivid, so disturbingly intimate, that it refuses to fade upon waking. As ruined cities, hollow-eyed survivors, and impossible figures emerge from the darkness, one man is forced to confront the terrifying cost of apathy—and the unbearable question of whether the future he witnessed was ever truly a dream at all.Listen on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@chillingtalesfordarknights/
When a skeptical horror enthusiast attends an underground Halloween event centered around a mysterious black passenger jet, he expects elaborate special effects, costumed actors, and manufactured scares. Instead, he finds himself trapped aboard an impossible flight that tears through the boundaries of reality itself—where every passenger carries hidden trauma, every corridor conceals unspeakable horrors, and every mile traveled brings them closer to something ancient, hungry, and waiting beyond the veil of existence. Fasten your seatbelt. There's no emergency exit on this flight.Listen on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@chillingtalesfordarknights/
What begins as a confusing awakening in a forgotten classroom quickly spirals into a waking nightmare no one can escape. Dragged into a secret underground institution known only as “Final School,” a group of strangers must endure a deadly gauntlet of twisted educational exercises designed to punish, break, and “correct” them for the failures of their past lives. Every classroom hides a new horror. Every lesson demands sacrifice. And every bell brings them closer to a graduation ceremony few will survive to see.Listen on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@chillingtalesfordarknights/
They thought they had pulled off the perfect crime. A remote house. No witnesses. No ties to the outside world. Just time, money… and a chance to disappear. But beneath the floorboards, something older waits. A hollow carved deep into the earth. A place where the lost are gathered. Where the guilty are welcomed. Where the living are broken, piece by piece, until nothing remains.Listen on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@chillingtalesfordarknights/
Out in the silence of the desert, there are no neighbors, traffic, or noise. So when something does break the stillness… you notice. At first, it's just music—faint, distant, almost forgettable. But as the night deepens, the sound draws closer, pulling one man into a mystery he cannot ignore. What he discovers will challenge everything he knows about his life, his memories… and the world itself.Listen on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@chillingtalesfordarknights/
Beneath a pitiless New Mexico sky, a young outlaw rides into the dead man's country and finds something far worse than the law waiting for him there.

As violence closes in and the road south grows darker, Drew Blood's Dark Tales invites listeners into a tale of ruthless men, impossible evil, and the thin line between survival and surrender.

Jerry from Rebel's Dark Tales of Appalachia YouTube channel, as well as Chris from Sasquatch Recon, are here to share some amazing stories from not only the South Mountains here in North Carolina, but also from South Carolina.In this episode, we dive into a series of strange and unexplained encounters that stretch across generations and landscapes, from the rugged woods of the South Mountains to the dark swamps of South Carolina.Jerry opens the conversation with chilling accounts rooted in local history, focusing on stories passed down by old-timers that challenge the often-repeated belief that Sasquatch activity in the area only began gaining attention in the late 1970s. One of the most gripping stories comes from Jerry's late friend Smitty, who recalled a terrifying 1971 squirrel hunting trip in Cleveland County after returning home from Vietnam.What began as a routine day in the woods with his uncle turned into something far more unsettling when they spotted a massive, hair-covered creature and later found themselves confronted and chased out by an aggressive seven-foot “hairy booger” that screamed, bared its teeth, and made it clear they were no longer welcome there.Jerry also shares several more recent encounters that suggest whatever has been seen in those mountains may still be there. He recounts a 2018 experience involving Uncle Jeff and his nephew Jake, who heard heavy bipedal footsteps in the dark, followed by guttural vocalizations, violent tree shaking, and a brief but disturbing glimpse of a hairy chest and mouth.He then describes a 2022 roadside sighting reported by an elderly couple who claimed to see a creature with glowing red eyes, along with a string of rock-throwing incidents involving a deer hunter, night hikers, a Jeep, and a pair of creek walkers named Ray and Vera. These encounters are paired with eerie whoops, growling howls, and the kind of escalating behavior that leaves little doubt something unusual was happening in those woods.Chris then shifts the conversation into the swamps of South Carolina, where an expedition took a frightening turn after his wood knocks and yells were answered by an unbelievably loud scream from deep in the distance. The sheer power of the sound, combined with the isolation of the swamp, was enough to make the group retreat. It is a tense and atmospheric ending to an episode packed with terrifying firsthand stories, regional lore, and the kind of encounters that continue to fuel the mystery of what may still be hiding in the forests of the South.Rebel's Dark Tales YouTubeSasquatch Recon YouTube Email BrianGet Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.Have you had a Bigfoot encounter, Sasquatch sighting, Dogman experience, or other cryptid or paranormal encounter?

On this haunting installment of Drew Blood's Dark Tales, Drew Blood ushers listeners into a windswept stretch of coastline where profit, pride, and old superstition collide.

Featuring Ryan G. Peacock's “I Can Never Return to the Ocean,” this episode promises maritime dread, creeping folklore, and the kind of deep-water terror that lingers long after the tide goes out.

We're kicking off a month of Shirley Jackson stories with All She Said Was Yes, a suburban take on the Cassandra complex from her collection Dark Tales. Boats, bad neighbors and psychics - IT'S AMAZING!
On this week's episode of Drew Blood's Dark Tales, author P.D. Williams delivers two unnerving tales of strange roads, false intentions, and the danger of assuming you know exactly what kind of world you're walking into. First, four blues musicians set out for Clarksdale and find themselves pulled into a night that feels increasingly wrong with every mile. Then, a smug online do-gooder goes looking for praise, gratitude, and easy content, only to discover that some acts of charity come with consequences he never saw coming. Darkly funny, eerie, and laced with menace, this is an episode about detours—moral, physical, and otherwise—and what may be waiting at the end of them. “Long Way” by P.D. Williams — When a group of traveling blues musicians heads for Clarksdale in 1936, a breakdown on a lonely Mississippi road leaves them stranded in the dark and far from help. As the men press onward through an increasingly unnatural night, what begins as a simple detour turns into a harrowing encounter with forces far beyond their understanding. A haunting blend of historical atmosphere, folklore, and cosmic unease, this story charts a nightmare journey into the unknown. “Kind” by P.D. Williams — Jared has built an online persona around public generosity, turning staged acts of compassion into content for clicks, praise, and profit. But when one of his self-serving charity stunts leads him into unfamiliar territory, he finds himself face-to-face with people who are not nearly as eager to play along as he expected. Darkly funny, sharp, and increasingly menacing, this story explores performative kindness, exploitation, and the danger of underestimating those you think you can use.

Jerry AKA Caser Rebel is back with a chilling look at the 1978–1979 encounters around Kaser, North Carolina, near the South Mountains and Carpenter's Knob. Witnesses including Minnie Cook, Sally White, the Price family, and Gay Smith reported a large black, hairy, humanlike figure prowling properties, killing animals, leaving tracks, and unleashing terrifying howls, screams, and strange yodeling wails.Drawing from reports documented by Robert Williams, who helped popularize the name “Knobby,” Jerry explores the possibility that more than one threat was involved, including an oversized black panther and a third track type he believes may point to a Dogman.The episode also dives into the fear of feral people in Appalachia, with accounts of eerie communication, violent encounters, a destroyed 1978 campsite, and a 2021 cave investigation that revealed a barefoot human track and signs of repeated human activity.Rebel's Dark Tales of Appalachia YouTubeEmail BrianGet Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.Have you had a Bigfoot encounter, Sasquatch sighting, Dogman experience, or other cryptid or paranormal encounter?

In this week's episode of Drew Blood's Dark Tales, a seemingly small obsession grows teeth.

When the sirens sound in Allister Valley, it's already too late to ask questions. In this haunting episode of Drew Blood's Dark Tales, listeners are invited into a quiet town with a rule everyone follows—but no one fully explains.

Drawn from the unsettling imagination of Ryan Major, this episode delivers a slow-burn descent into small-town horror, where grief is weaponized, familiarity becomes a trap, and survival depends on resisting the one thing that feels most human: answering when someone you love calls your name.

In this chilling new episode of Drew Blood's Dark Tales, vanity, desperation, and hidden menace intersect in a story that peels back the glossy surface of self-improvement to reveal something far darker beneath. When one man seeks a simple solution to his insecurities, he steps into the orbit of a charismatic “professional” whose charm is only the first layer of a far more unsettling reality.

When he discovers a charismatic SMP practitioner who promises a life-changing transformation, Matt jumps at the chance to reclaim his confidence. But once inside the walls of a rundown clinic, he finds himself entangled with a man whose charm masks something far more unstable. As the procedures grow stranger and the behavior more erratic, Matt realizes too late that he may have trusted the wrong set of hands. A tense, spiraling tale of insecurity, manipulation, and the terrifying cost of misplaced faith.

On this week's Drew Blood's Dark Tales, step beyond the veil of the ordinary and into a world where secrets fester in the dark, and what waits in the shadows may not be what it seems. From author J.G. Martin comes a chilling blend of cosmic dread and human fragility—a tale that asks what price we pay when monsters aren't the ones we should fear. Settle in, friend… tonight's story may just change the way you look at good, evil, and everything in between. “Judas” by J.G. Martin – Deep in the South American jungle lies a rusted, forgotten military compound—one that official records insist does not exist. When an investigator for a clandestine organization encounters a battered journalist at its gates, their uneasy alliance pulls them into a labyrinth of secrets, experiments, and things that should never have been created. With every revelation, the line between monster and savior blurs, raising unsettling questions about loyalty, sacrifice, and the true nature of evil. A tense and atmospheric descent into the unknown, this story lingers in the shadows long after the last word is spoken.

This week on Drew Blood's Dark Tales, the quiet rhythm of suburban life shatters under the boots of men in black. The streets are locked down, the houses boarded up, and a strange symbol gleams wetly in the dark. Somewhere beyond the barricades, something impossibly tall is moving—its footsteps like distant thunder, its hooded face hidden from the world. In the uneasy silence between storms, neighbors trade theories, soldiers mutter in a language no one recognizes, and the truth about the “Tall Things” begins to take shape. But in a town where the wrong glance could be your last, finding answers may come at a price far worse than ignorance. From J.G. Martin's Crooked Gospels comes a tale of creeping paranoia, unblinking eyes, and horrors too large to fit in the frame—where survival means deciding whether it's safer to run, hide, or look straight into the face of what's coming.
