It's easy to do – if you don't mind living with a ghost or two. (Tokyo Ghosts) *** Cryptozoologists are abuzz right now about recent sightings of a creature seen in the lakes of Connemara in Ireland. The creature is rumored to be up to 30 feet long, with a mane of hair running along its back. Is it a yet undiscovered species of fish? A giant eel? A cousin to the Loch Ness monster in Scotland – or even perhaps a living dinosaur? No one has yet been able to answer the question – but this August, monster hunters from around the globe are coming together in Ireland to try and find answers. (The Giant Eels of Connemara) *** High school teacher Pamela Smart fell in love. Unfortunately, she fell in love with a 15-year-old student… and that is only the beginning of this horrible story. (High School Homicide) *** Weirdo family member, Josh Marinkovic, tells an eerie true experience that would shake anyone to the core. (Oh, He's Not Home) *** For decades, mountain hikers have been reporting strange things happening on Mount Everest while scaling to the top. Weird events and encounters that could only be described as supernatural. (The Paranormal of Mount Everest) *** Jody smiled at the children playing in her backyard. She didn't know them, they were probably the neighbors' kids. At least that's what she thought at first until she began to notice something disturbing about those children. (Phantom Children of Guilford) *** Dealing with the paranormal is already unsettling. What if you were to learn that the supernatural has actually been feeding on you? (Supernatural Feedings) *** Newlywed couples planning a trip to Venice envision romantic walkways and Renaissance art. What they don't expect to find is an island that is illegal to set foot on… and for good reason. (Black Plague Island) *** Weirdo family member Ber Bella shares an experience her grandmother had on an icy road. (Angel On Black Ice) *** Sometimes a prisoner is let free, with experts of the opinion he has been completely rehabilitated. Sometimes they are right. Often they are wrong. And in the case of Jack Unterweger – releasing him was the worst thing that could ever have been done.

Weird Darkness: Stories of the Paranormal, Supernatural, Legends, Lore, Mysterious, Macabre, Unsolved

IN THIS EPISODE: In 2016,  there was something of a folk panic in Yorkshire, northern England, following reported sightings of an eight-foot werewolf with a very human face. It's known as the Beast of Barmston Drain – but most people call him “Old Stinker”. (Old Stinker) *** A man in Louisiana has a magnetic personality. Not for the ladies… but for the paranormal. (Paranormal Magnet Man) *** A truck-driver was not prepared for what he experienced one summer night at a tiny truck stop in the middle of nowhere... hardly the place where one would expect a ghost… if that's what it even was. (Phantom of the Truck Stop) *** No animal had ever made such sounds. Neither the lions of East Africa nor the angry bulls. At times, it sounded like a veritable herd of wild beasts orchestrated by Satan had formed a hellish choir. And that was only a small part of the demonic possession of a girl named Clara. (Demonic Possession In South Africa) *** Want to live on the cheap in Tokyo, Japan? It's easy to do – if you don't mind living with a ghost or two. (Tokyo Ghosts) *** Cryptozoologists are abuzz about recent sightings of a creature seen in the lakes of Connemara in Ireland. The creature is rumored to be up to 30 feet long, with a mane of hair running along its back. Is it a yet undiscovered species of fish? A giant eel? A cousin to the Loch Ness monster in Scotland – or even perhaps a living dinosaur? No one has yet been able to answer the question – but recently monster hunters from around the globe came together in Ireland to try and find answers. (The Giant Eels of Connemara) *** For decades, mountain hikers have been reporting strange things happening on Mount Everest while scaling to the top. Weird events and encounters that could only be described as supernatural. (The Paranormal of Mount Everest) *** High school teacher Pamela Smart fell in love. Unfortunately, she fell in love with a 15-year-old student… and that is only the beginning of this horrible story. (High School Homicide) *** Weirdo family member, Josh Marinkovic, tells an eerie true experience that would shake anyone to the core. (Oh, He's Not Home) *** Weirdo family member Cass tells her story of a disturbing dream, a sick friend, and the temptation to sell her soul in order to save her.

Max Booth III and I talk at length about our instant infatuation with the film Love Lies Bleeding, as well as a few other topics we somehow meander into, such as potential cannibals in Indiana, definite cannibals roaming railroad tracks, and my total ignorance about what constitues "nu metal."About the Show: Conversations with creative guests, broadly, but not strictly about one of three possible subjects:I LOVED THIS! - In which the guest gets to gush about a story they are absolutely in love with.Author's Commentary - In which the guest author talks about deleted scenes, changed characters and other alterations they've mad to one (or more) of their stories.Studying the Scares - In which the guest picks a moment from a work of horror (or, perhaps, the entire work, if they just can't narrow it down) so we can talk about what makes it so effective and memorable, as well as the influence it has had on them.Theme Music: "Mysterious Blues Guitar Logo" by Remstunes - used with Envato LicenseLead-in Music: "Everything You Know is a Myth" by Crypt-of-Insomnia - used with Envato LicenseCut-in Music: "Mystery Clock Suspense" by Crypt-of-Insomnia - used with Envato License Hosted on Acast.

On this week's Tuesday episode,  prepare to be swept into a whirlwind of horror, tension, and intrigue as we explore the nerve-wracking narrative of Max Booth III's "We Gotta Do Something". From a family barricaded in a bathroom due to a tornado warning to a father's desperate reliance on alcohol, this compelling novel leaves us with more chills than thrills. Get ready for a deep-dive into the grim reality of an ordinary family finding themselves in extraordinary circumstances, battling their own demons, and wrestling with the unnerving tasks they are forced to undertake.We further delve into the dark and twisted characters, their relationships and the disturbing incidents that occur within the confinements of a bathroom. The biting of a family member by a rattlesnake, the father's alcohol-induced visions, and the bizarre turn of events make this a gripping and hair-raising tale. Join us for this thought-provoking and spine-chilling episode of the Book Fix, where we unmask the haunting realities of family dynamics under extreme stress, fueled by paranoia and desperation. Listen in, if you dare, to this rollercoaster of suspense and horror, and hopefully you don't view your own bathroom in a whole new, eerie light.Support the showbecome our Patron ♡ https://www.patreon.com/BookFixbuy us a book ♡ https://www.buymeacoffee.com/thebookfixBusiness Inquiries: thebookfixpodcast@gmail.comfollow us on Tiktok! ♡ https://www.tiktok.com/@thebookfix

Well, great news for you and probably only you: we have launched a podcast dedicated to SOV (shot-on-video) horror movies titled Decayed Tapes, which will have a home right here on the GHOULISH Podcast Network. Join our hosts, Max Booth III and Miguel Myers, as we explore the under-appreciated world of shot-on-video horror sleaze created by low-budget filmmakers and sometimes genuine psychopaths. Our first episode went live earlier this week: a 2+ hour long conversation about… Video Violence! Please consider subscribing to the show via your favorite podcast app and rating/reviewing on iTunes. If it's not already on your preferred app, please give it another day or two to properly generate, then check again. Sometimes brand-new podcasts can take a minute to show up everywhere.

He's here to talk about his new collection of uber-dark stories, Abnormal Statistics.These tales are pitch black, treacle-thick pieces of clotted nastiness. Bad things happen to lots of people, most frequently children (but never dogs). Many a mind is tortured and many a tooth is sucked (!!) Max and I talk about how these stories reflect his own disjointed childhood. We talk about awful true crimes and why he's addicted to information that is bad for him. We also try to pin down precisely what it is about human teeth that seem so universally unnerving… plus some references to my favourite creepypasta stories.This is the best bad time you'll have this week.Enjoy!Abnormal Statistics was published by Apocalypse Party on March 23rd Other books mentioned in this episode include:The Haunting of Camp Winter Falcon (2022), by Jonathan RaabThis Appearing House (2022), by Ally Malinenko“The Whimper of Whipped Dogs” (1973), by Harlan EllisonSupport Talking Scared on PatreonCome talk books on Twitter @talkscaredpod, on Instagram, or email direct to talkingscaredpod@gmail.com Support the show

It's dark, bleak, weird, and concerningly autobiographical.Michael David Wilson is the founder of This Is Horror, and the main host of the This Is Horror podcast. He's been a crucial contributor to the horror book world for over a decade, with his website, podcast, awards, and his own writing. As this is a crossover episode, the format is slightly different. Michael often leads the conversation. but don't worry! There's still plenty of me. Also, after the main discussion, there's about 17 minutes of weird, and likely offensive, outtakes. This is the first of two episodes covering Max's book. We had so much to say that we needed to break up the conversation over multiple recordings. This means that, in the near future, you'll be getting more talk about the stories in this collection, and probably more bragging about our longevity in the business. This podcast is about supporting our beloved creators, and so here is your opportunity! ABNORMAL STATISTICS is available now, so pick up a copy, and check out other publications from Max's publishing company Ghoulish Books. While you're at it, Michael has a couple books out that are available for purchase, so please check them out and buy them as well! And don't forget to check out the This Is Horror podcast, with almost 500 episodes to choose from. I'd guess I appear in about five of them, if that helps.Thanks as always for listening!

Ok everyone get comfortable and strap in for this wild ride of an interview! The guys got to talk to the writer/screenwriter of the movie "We Need To Do Something" currently streaming on HULU. Max was an absolute freaking blast and neither of the guys were prepared for the peak inside Max's brain. They dig into the behind the scenes of movie making and how a movie goes from paper to film, including a glimpse of where these insane ideas even come from. Also get an inside look of Max's publishing company Perpetual Motion Machine and its offshoot Ghoulish Books along with some fantastic personal stories from the man himself. The guys really enjoyed having Max on the show and hope that everyone else enjoys listening to this wild ride!!!!

As the box office finally begins to be resuscitated, albeit largely with the help of the comic book movie crowd, straight-to-streaming films now seem to either cater to cinematic schlock addicts or art film dorks, and the latest from the IFC Midnight imprint, We Need to Do Something, falls in a strange but intriguing gray area between the two. The first feature narrative from director (and known indie producer) Sean King O'Grady, scripted and based on a novella by up-and-comer Max Booth III, the bottle episode-style story of a dysfunctional family stuck in a bathroom after a mysterious storm is as fun as it is disturbing. But, as the saying goes, perhaps there were script problems from day one. Whether it be characters that seem to serve no other function than a vehicle for body horror or plot contrivances that distract more than they entertain, how does a small project like this with an uncompromising and borderline disgusting vision (arguably to a fault) wind up available to everyone with a Hulu subscription? And where does it go from here besides the annals of scary movie obscurity?
