Podcasts about ghost stories

Michael and Jess talk about the horror! We start with a little on The Menu and A Ghost Story for Christmas, then a little more on Ted Naifeh's first Courtney Crumrin volume, The Night Things, and then a lot on Alan Moore and Eddie Campbell's From Hell and Jack the Ripper in general. That finishes our 2025 of horror comics, so we also talk about our focus for 2026.

Pittsburgh's Congelier Mansion saw so much death — from a wife's bloody revenge to a doctor's gruesome experiments to workers found dead in the basement — that some believe the Devil himself reclaimed it in a 1927 explosion.IN THIS EPISODE: The dark and strange history of the Congelier Mansion in Pittsburgh is lost to time, but not to those who've heard the stories. (The House The Devil Built) *** A chance meeting brings two people love, then marriage… then jealousy and murder. (The Bitter Fruit of a Jest) *** He terrified citizens in Australia in the 1990s – suspected of at least twelve murders, and sentenced to seven life terms in prison. His name was Ivan Milat. (Serial Killer Ivan Milat) *** How can a young woman remember herself being old? (Hannah's Past Lives) *** A toddler plays with an imaginary friend – who ends up being his deceased grandmother whom he has never met. (Panteletas) *** In 1972 an aircraft crashed into the Florida Everglades - and has become one of the most famous aircraft flights in the annals of the supernatural. (Ghosts of Flight 401) *** A young girl is beaten and abused as a child, ignored by her family and schoolmates, and ended up crying each night alone in her room… although she was not truly alone. (Who Is With Me) *** There is no doubt that something puzzling did happen hundreds of years ago in Ireland. Scientists, historians and locals admit this particular place is shrouded in mystery. (Unexplained Phenomenon in Ancient Ireland) *** Skyquakes. Mistpouffers. Seneca Guns. The mysterious booms in South Carolina have many names, but no one knows what causes them. (Mysterious Booms in South Carolina) *** A man had apparently leapt off the roof of a building, committing suicide. That would've been the end of it, except that police found a note in the man's pocket with instructions on how to find the pieces of his girlfriend. (The Zach and Addie Murder/Suicide) *** No one paid much attention to Kaspar Hauser when he strolled into Nuremberg one morning in 1828. But that would soon change. (The Enduring 200 Year Mystery of Kaspar Hauser) *** When a man goes to prison, only to come home a year later and find his wife with another man, you know the ending already. (The Brown Tragedy) *** A woman's body was found in a secluded Texas home, sitting upright in a rocking chair in front of a mysterious altar.

In a time-honored tradition, even though I'm a few days late, here are some ghost stories to listen to, into the night. These stories were all told to me by folks I interviewed as I was working on a few books. I have no reason to think they are not true.

For our final episode of the season, we limp our way across the Atlantic to Chillingham Castle, a medieval fortress that spent centuries collecting war trauma like it was a hobby. Sitting on one of the most violently contested borders in British history, this place didn't need ghosts to become unsettling, the documented history already chose violence. We'd appreciate it if you took a moment to help our podcast by rating and reviewing on apple and NOW on Spotify!

A rushed arrest, a collapsing case, and a sensational trial that put everyone on display.Part Two picks up immediately after the arrest of Clifford Hayes, the first man charged in the Hall Mills murders. We break down how police built a case on a coerced confession, why it quickly fell apart, and how Hayes was cleared while Raymond Schneider was convicted of perjury instead. From there, the investigation lurches forward through botched evidence, unreliable witnesses, and a courtroom spectacle that culminates in the infamous 1926 trial of Frances Hall and her family. We unpack the prosecution's theories, the defense's brutal dismantling of key testimony, and how the trial ultimately left the case exactly where it started, unresolved, controversial, and haunted by what might have been done differently.Edited by Maxwell Holechek

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! Every town has a story everyone knows. A ghost that appears along a lonely road. A figure seen standing just beyond the tree line. Something that lives in the woods, the swamp, or the space people avoid after dark. We hear these stories growing up, pass them around like warnings or dares—but rarely stop to ask where they came from… or why they refuse to disappear. In this episode, we explore the uneasy space between folklore and fear with Micah Campbell, author of Urban Legends, Ghost Stories and Folklore. Together, we dig into the origins of the stories that shape our collective nightmares—urban legends, cryptid encounters, and ghost tales that feel too specific to be coincidence. Are they cautionary tales? Misidentified encounters? Or fragments of truth buried beneath generations of retelling? From vanishing hitchhikers to monsters lurking just out of sight, this conversation asks a simple question with uncomfortable implications: what if some of these legends started because something actually happened? This is Part Two of our conversation. #TheGraveTalks #UrbanLegends #Folklore #GhostStories #Cryptids #ParanormalPodcast #HighStrangeness #MonsterLore #TrueEncounters #Legends #Ghosts Love real ghost stories?

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Welcome to my final episode of 2025! In this episode you'll find a fantastic discussion with my good friend Mart, as we dive into a creepy addition to the BBC's Ghost Stories for Christmas! Mart was lucky enough to see this when it aired and that first hand experience is on full display in this episode. Plus, after a quick promo (Relatively Geeky Network), I'll chime in for a few minutes wrapping up 2025 and a peek at what's on tap for 2026!

This Christmas, Paranormal Activity takes a darker turn…Join Yvette Fielding for a chilling festive special as she tells two of the most enduring and unsettling ghost stories ever whispered by candlelight.Wrapped in winter darkness and steeped in tragedy, these are hauntings that refuse to rest no matter the season.First, Yvette revisits The Brown Lady of Raynham Hall, one of the most famous photographic ghosts in history.A sorrowful spirit said to roam the corridors of her Norfolk home, bound by betrayal, punishment, and a death shrouded in secrecy.What really stalks the halls of Raynham, and why has her presence endured for centuries?Then, across the snow-laden wilderness of Canada, we enter the grand yet ominous Banff Springs Hotel. Beneath its fairy-tale exterior lie tales of doomed brides, vanished families, and apparitions that appear when the hotel is quiet and the mountains close in.Guests check in… but some never truly leave.Perfect for listening by the fire, though you may want to leave a light on.A Create Podcast Hosted on Acast.

This Christmas, Shadow Carriers turns its gaze to a beloved New Orleans holiday figure with a story far deeper than his cheerful grin.In this special holiday episode, we uncover the origins of Mr. Bingle and the artists, dreamers, and craftsmen who brought him into being. Through history, memory, and a touch of seasonal magic, we explore how one character came to embody the spirit of a city and why his legacy continues to linger each winter._____________________________Please be sure to like us on social media: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/shadowcarriersInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/shadowcarriersIf you like what you hear and want to buy your storytellers a drink, you can catch us at @shadowcarriers on Venmo.If you've enjoyed this episode and want to support our work, become a patron of the podcast!

This Christmas, All Things Unexplained pauses the noise, the speculation, and the headlines to return to the most influential story ever told.Join Dr. Mounce and CJ (with all the best from Smitty) as we present the traditional Christmas story straight from Scripture—the angelic announcement, the journey to Bethlehem, the shepherds in the fields, the mysterious star, and the arrival of the wise men.The familiar tale is paired with a striking visual interpretation inspired by classic sci-fi and ancient-mystery aesthetics—inviting viewers to reflect on how extraordinary these events must have appeared to those who witnessed them over 2,000 years ago.Whether you experience it as a sacred retelling, a moment of quiet reflection, or a reminder that the story of Christmas has always been… unexplained, this special is our gift to you.From our family to yours—Merry Christmas, and stay curious.

The Christmas Eve ghost story is a fine old tradition associated with Victorian and Edwardian England, one that’s been making a comeback on both sides of the Atlantic. Since 2018, Bone and Sickle has enthusiastically embraced the custom. Our offering for 2025, is “The Other Bed” written by E.F. Benson in  1912 and read for us by Mrs. Karswell. Previous Christmas ghost stories are linked here in our website show notes  (2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022 , 2023, and 2024.)

This week, we're a day late and a few dollars short. The Creeps stay festive and hold a Victorian style feast on a millennial's budget. We try a classic tiny pecan pie from Walmart, interestingly decent Crisp Apple Jason Universe themed Angry Orchard cider, and just the weirdest stuff we could find at Aldi: iced soft gingerbread things and Spritz orange wine that finally opens around the ten minute mark. We think it's wine, we're not sure.Also, Kelsey talks about her solo trip to Martinsburg, WV. She visited Sumo Fusion, located at 1331 Edwin Miller Blvd. Their open daily - Mon-Thu 11-9:30, Fri-Sat 11-10, and Sun Noon-9:30. She tried incredible appetizers and enjoyed shrimp dumplings to her surprise.Matt's favorite special is back! This year's Christmas ghost story will be read by Kelsey. We've chosen The Phantom Toe by two initials or whatever. (Author unknown) The Creeps also talk about how bad that pumpkin ramen was, beloved Appalachian folktales, making punch, powdered sugar giving the Christmas spirit, the horror of getting buzzbombed off a buzzball, and the horror of beloved but now defunct restaurants.

Thank you so much for listening. If you have enjoyed it, Paul is releasing "Pocket Nightmares", a collection of 50 x 5-minute reads in 2026!   Thank you all for your continued support this year.

In this special crossover episode with the Sibling Library Podcast, Jeff and Julia discuss the history of the gothic Victorian era Christmastime ghost story, and we talk about British holiday journals, ghostly brides, moralism vs. horror, and of course, Charles Dickens, the father of the quintessential Christmas ghost story. Then, we will read a classic Victorian ghost story which may make your blood boil, as it does its antagonist. May you and yours have a scary Christmas!

This week we take a nostalgic walk down memory lane and piece together some of our past episodes on Christmas and holiday horror. We've covered so many different versions of holiday horror over the last few years, and we wanted to put together a mega-Christmas horror episode that highlights everything from the history of Yule and the pagan celebrations that pre-date Christmas, to the history of a Christmas Carol, one of the most famous ghost stories of all time, and different monsters from Christmas lore all over the world. Get Lunatics Merch here.

Pull up a chair, witches, and settle into the Solarium, that warm, herb scented pause between the dark and the returning light, where herb scented smoke and the laughter of friends keeps the night at bay.In this special Yule season Solarium episode of Back on the Broomstick, Laylla and Chelle invite you into a cozy, candlelit ghost tale swap that leans deliciously into the strange and unsettling side of winter magic. The scary ghost stories side of the sugar plum season. Laylla shares four chilling haunted doll stories. As she researched and recorded these stories, some truly odd coincidences began stacking up. Tech glitches, recording problems, and even something a little more personal.... decide for yourself whether it was coincidence or something else.Chelle then takes us deep into winter folklore with the dark and fascinating tale of Frau Perchta, a Yuletide spirit who walks the long nights judging the living, rewarding the diligent, and punishing those who stray too far from the old ways. Equal parts cautionary tale and seasonal myth, her story reminds us that Yule magic isn't all twinkle lights and cocoa. Sometimes it stuffs you with stones and straw if you don't do your chores.This Solarium episode is spooky, fun, and perfect for listening by firelight or under a heavy blanket while the wind rattles the bones of winter outside. Pour yourself something warm, maybe cast a circle for comfort, and join us for ghost stories that linger long after the candles burn low.Listener discretion and copious comfort items advised. And maybe don't leave your dolls uncovered tonight.Got a question? Send the witches a message here!Support the showWant to send us a letter?

Good morrow, honoured guest! We hope you slept well, and weren't kept awake by too many bumps in the night?For on today's episode of the Three Ravens Christmas Feast we're convening in the Haunted Library with one of the most exciting British folk bands working today.Lunatraktors, a.k.a. Carli Jefferson and Clair Le Couteur, have been making music together for over half a decade, releasing four ground-breaking albums and an E.P. that have earned them widespread acclaim, critical praise, and a passionate cult following.Yet how did the pair get started on their musical journey? And how do they feel, as dedicated pagans, when the world turns dark and churches fill up with people singing songs about Jesus?Because, as the pair explain, the kinds of festive music they like to sing and make speaks to something beyond religion, offering light in a gloom that can feel oppressive in its abundance, though rich with magic, mystery and half-forgotten traditions.Featuring thrilling versions of The Holly and the Ivy, Remember The Poor, Lully Lullay, Wassail and their brand new single, Yarrow, settle in for a journey through Christmas music both past and present - not to mention in that strange place in between, where room sounds guide rhythms, feet stamp, and voices soar like wild shaman wailing at the wind...We really hope you enjoy it, and to see you tomorrow in the Raven Tower for our Ghost Story for Christmas Eve, after which, on Christmas Day, we will be serving up a three course menu of episodes featuring:Dr Sarah Clegg, author of The Dead of Winter: The Demons, Witches and Ghosts of ChristmasTaffy Thomas MBE, author of Midwinter Folk Tales and the UK's first Storyteller LaureateTony Walker, author of Christmas Ghost Stories and host of The Classic Ghost Stories podcastPlus a new Christmas song from us!We promise spooky and heartwarming tales, weird Christmas history, Ben prancing about in jingly shoes, lots of surprises, and... well, just be sure to wear something loose-fitting, as there will be plenty to go round.Oh, and don't mind the spectral hands floating about the place.They're a gift from Baba Yaga...Three Ravens is a Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on a historic county, exploring the heritage, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?Learn more at www.threeravenspodcast.com, join our Patreon at www.patreon.com/threeravenspodcast, and find links to our social media channels here: https://linktr.ee/threeravenspodcastREGISTER FOR THE TALES OF SOUTHERN ENGLAND TOURProud members of the Dark Cast Network.Visit our website Join our Patreon Social media channels and sponsors Hosted on Acast.

In the winter of 1596, famine and desperation turn London's Newgate Prison into a place of cannibalism and despair.

When I came up with the idea for "The Tree: A Christmas Ghost Story", I had no idea where I wanted it to go. But once I sat down to work on it, it magically seemed to write itself. After I finished recorded it, I realized that I had created something special -- a totally unique ghost story, maybe even a Christmas classic! So sit back, pour yourself a glass of eggnog, dim the lights, and prepare to be highly entertained. And to all of my listeners, my sincere wishes for a very Merry Christmas, and a joyous holiday season!

Every year, goblin-like creatures called Kallikantzaroi stop sawing through the World Tree, crawl up from the underworld, and spend the twelve days of Christmas stealing babies, destroying homes, and terrorizing anyone unlucky enough to cross their path, pooping all over the place while they are at it.IN THIS EPISODE: If your kids think Elf on a Shelf is creepy – just tell them that kids in Greece and its surrounding countries are terrorized each Christmas for a full twelve days by nocturnal goblins that like to defecate all over your home! (The Defecating Christmas Goblins of Greece) *** The ghost of Mary, Queen of Scots makes her presence known on Christmas Eve, 1900… or does she? (The Tower of London's Christmas Eve Ghost) *** A serving of poisoned Christmas pie causes the death of Captain David Paye on Christmas day, 1882. But who had a motive? (A Christmas Poisoning) *** People worldwide have been celebrating Christmas for hundreds and hundreds of years – but not all of those years were joyous for everyone. For example, those who happened to be black living in America while slavery was still legal. What was Christmas like for them? (Christmas As a Slave In America) *** In that song, “It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year” there is the line “there will be scary ghost stories”… why on earth would a Christmas song have a line like that? We'll look at that song – and other Christmas songs – that are a lot darker than you might know. (The Darker Side of Christmas Carols) *** We're all familiar with the classic Christmas ghost tale, “A Christmas Carol” by Charles Dickens – but before that novel, there was another ghost story of Christmas, a purportedly true story. (A Ghost Story of Christmas) *** In 1897, Dr. Philip O'Hanlon was asked by his young daughter whether Santa Claus was real. His suggestion for her to find an answer has resulted in something so famous, it has practically become a meme. (Yes, Virginia, There Is a Santa Claus) *** December 16, 1965… Gemini 6 and 7 have just completed the first ever manned rendezvous between spacecraft, making history. But they were about to achieve another first in space exploration… and a first for Christmas!
