We start this week in New Zealand where a man goes ghost hunting in the supposedly very haunted former Napier Prison. Did he have an intense encounter with building's most infamous spirit?  Then, Dan shares three smaller tales:  first involves two people hanging out alone in a park at night,  having a very strange, dangerous, and disturbing encounter.  Then we get a creepy baby monitor story. And the lastly,  a series of confusing and disturbing texts between two people freaks us out! Lynze has her usual two tales this week. The first takes us to the middle of nowhere for a possible UFO encounter with lasting affects. Her second story brings us a haunted house that seems to be trying to tell someone something. Bad Magic Monthly Donation: This month we have donated $10,600 to Basic Needs, a non profit providing a lifeline to those in need during times of adversity.

The Gullah Geechee are descendants of West and Central Africans enslaved on the Sea Islands and coastal plantations. Isolated in these regions, they preserved a unique creole language and a rich spiritual folklore. For a long time, any ghostly apparition or sinister spirit in the Lowcountry was simply called a "haint," a term for haunt or ghost. But over time, people realised not all haints were the same. Gullah lore eventually classified the evil spirits into two categories: plat-eyes and boo-hags.The BOOKBY US A COFFEEJoin Sarah's new FACEBOOK GROUPSubscribe to our PATREONEMAIL us your storiesJoin us on INSTAGRAMJoin us on TWITTERJoin us on FACEBOOKVisit our WEBSITEResearch Links:https://genteelandbard.com/southern-history-haunts-folklore-journal/boo-hags-plat-eyeshttps://www.blacksouthernbelle.com/www-blacksouthernbelle-com-gullah-geechee-folk-rituals-hoodoo-voodoo-and-conjuringhttps://www.monstropedia.org/index.php/Plat-eyehttps://www.reddit.com/r/dogman/comments/1dz4act/i_learned_something_new_and_i_want_to_talk_abouthttps://charlestonterrors.com/boo-hags-haint-blue-vampires-of-the-lowcountry-the-paint-that-stops-them/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boo_haghttps://www.reddit.com/r/Paranormal/comments/ufxm0g/old_hag_sleep_paralysis_about_7_years_agoThanks so much for listening, and we'll catch up with you again on Thursday.Sarah and Tobie xx"Spacial Winds," Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licenced under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 Licencehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/SURVEY Hosted on Acast.

Tonight's Creepypasta draws from chilling true scary stories and urban legends, revealing what happens when a single streetlight exposes things that should never be seen. From a lonely window overlooking a quiet street, the narrator begins to notice figures that only appear beneath one flickering light—watching, waiting, and vanishing the moment darkness returns. This slow-burn horror story builds relentless tension through isolation, paranoia, and the fear of being observed, making it a must-listen for fans of unsettling scary stories where reality bends just enough to let something in. If you enjoy atmospheric dread, creeping mystery, and Creepypasta that lingers in your mind long after the video ends, this is one you won't forget.

Tonight's video delivers a chilling Creepypasta inspired by true scary stories and urban legends, following a late-night bus driver whose routine route turns into a waking nightmare. When a silent passenger exits the bus in the middle of nowhere, curiosity and concern lead the driver to follow—only to uncover something lurking beyond the road that was never meant to be found. This unsettling horror story blends isolation, creeping dread, and psychological terror, making it perfect for fans of scary stories where one bad decision changes everything. If you enjoy dark roadside encounters, eerie disappearances, and slow-burn fear that crawls under your skin, this Creepypasta will haunt you long after the last stop.

I thought id share a compilation with you all! YouTube isnt too fond of these anymore, so sharing it here!

22 year old Liam Toman went missing from Mont-Tremblant, Quebec in Canada on February 2, 2025. Liam was last seen walking towards his hotel after he was asked to leave a club in the Canadian ski resort. For some unexplained reason, Liam did not enter his hotel and walked behind it towards the road leading away from the resort where his wallet was found several months later. He never came back to his hotel that night and has been missing ever since.Contact us at: weeknightmysteries@gmail.comInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/weeknightmysteriesTikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@weeknightmysteries

When my best friend vanished in the woods, everyone feared the worst—until he suddenly returned, changed in ways no one would explain. In this chilling Creepypasta, I uncover the terrifying truth his parents are desperate to hide, and why no one is allowed to see him after dark. What begins as relief quickly spirals into dread as strange sounds, unsettling rules, and late-night encounters reveal something inhuman lurking beneath the surface. If you love True Scary Stories, unsettling Horror Stories, and deeply disturbing Scary Stories that blur the line between missing persons and supernatural horror, this nightmare will stay with you long after the lights go out.

It's the official day of romance (at least according to Hallmark Cards). Valentine's Day bring up feelings of love and adoration, moments of affection, gifts to show one's heartfelt emotions for another. But February 14th doesn't always bring the warm and fuzzies. Sometimes the day brings tragedy, heartbreak, or just something of the bizarre and strange.CHAPTERS & TIME STAMPS (All Times Approximate)…00:00:00.000 = Show Open00:01:10.731 = A Freak Love Story00:11:12.851 = Ghost Love Stories ***00:27:41.588 = Bloody Story Behind Valentine's Day ***00:32:00.771 = Show Close*** = Begins immediately after inserted ad breakHELPFUL LINKS & RESOURCES…https://WeirdDarkness.com/STORE = Tees, Mugs, Socks, Hoodies, Totes, Hats, Kidswear & Morehttps://WeirdDarkness.com/HOPE = Hope For Depression or Thoughts of Self-Harmhttps://WeirdDarkness.com/NEWSLETTER = In-Depth Articles, Memes, Weird DarkNEWS, Videos & Morehttps://WeirdDarkness.com/AUDIOBOOKS = FREE Audiobooks Narrated By Darren Marlar SOURCES AND REFERENCES FROM THE EPISODE…“A Freak Love Story” by Rachel Souerbry for Ranker.com: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/4kr4ep45“Ghost Love Stories” posted at NotebookOfGhosts.com: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/345vwf54, and BurroughsOfTheDead.com: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/4hcjbps8“The Bloody Story Behind Valentine's Day” by Avani Raj for ED Times: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/c759fnnyWeird Darkness theme by Alibi Music Library. = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =(Over time links may become invalid, disappear, or have different content.

The Chat Tonight scary story_s of the paranormal and extraterrestrials plus latest news

Behind the grandeur of New Orleans' infamous LaLaurie Mansion lies a chilling legacy of cruelty, paranormal hauntings, and the lingering memory of Madame Delphine's horrific acts.IN THIS EPISODE: IN THIS EPISODE: We're all familiar with, thanks to Stephen Spielberg, the concept of a close encounter of the third kind. That's when you not only see a UFO, but you also see the extraterrestrials. The fourth kind of encounter is when you are abducted. A close encounter of the fifth kind is when you communicate with the alien – either verbally or telepathically. But then there is a close encounter of the sixth kind – the kind of encounter not even die-hard Ufologists and lovers of anything extraterrestrial want to experience… because nobody comes back from it alive. (Close Encounters of the Sixth Kind) *** In 1908, Charles Luard found his wife Caroline shot dead at a neighbor's country house. But who killed her? (The Seal Chart Murder) *** Madame Delphine LaLaurie, made popular by Kathy Bates in TV's “American Horror Story: Coven” was a first class monster. A figure of high society, she was well known for her mistreatment of slaves. But no one knew just how sick she truly was. So much so that even after leaving the mansion and it burning down, there are still terrors taking place there, thanks to Madame Delphine LaLaurie, the Monster of Royal Street.

Tonight's Creepypasta delivers one of the most devastating true scary stories you'll ever hear. My Son Went Looking for the Skinned Man… I Found What's Left of Him follows a desperate father searching the woods for his missing son after the boy becomes obsessed with a whispered urban legend. What begins as a frantic rescue quickly turns into a horrifying descent into something far worse, as the truth behind the Skinned Man reveals itself piece by piece. This chilling horror story blends psychological terror with brutal discovery, making it a must-listen for fans of scary stories that linger long after the final word. Turn down the lights, listen closely, and be warned—some legends are real, and some should never be hunted.Part 1 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5tG9Fk66h5M

We head to the Arizona desert,  just a few miles outside of Tombstone, where there sits a small adobe ruin with a body count that defies belief. More than twenty men are thought to have been murdered on this small, dusty patch of land - and according to decades of witnesses, some of them have never stopped killing each other.

Sea monster tales have existed for thousands of years, with stories of giant squids and octopuses being especially common. But where's the last place you'd expect to find such a creature? The desert of Oklahoma, perhaps?IN THIS EPISODE: Tales of sea monsters go back millennia, tales of giant squids and octopus are particularly prevalent. But where is the last place on earth you'd expect to find such a creature? How about the desert landscape of Oklahoma? (The Oklahoma Octopus) *** Parental hostility drove a girl out of her home and into the arms of her cousin. As I'm sure you can guess, that was not a wise decision. (Kissing Cousins) *** I'll read a short passage from G. Michael Vasey's book, “Chasing the Goddess”, a chapter called “Strange Things Happen To Me”. *** Margaret Allen was hanged to death. But it's the strange life she lived and the odd nature of her crime that still interests people in her case. (The Hanging of Margaret or Bill) *** 12-year-old Gabriel enjoyed playing games with an online friend. But when he borrowed less than two dollars for an in-game purchase from this friend, then ignored his requests to continue playing, he found himself dying the most horrifying murder you can imagine. And despite law enforcement knowing who the murderer is, he is free now – and no one knows where to find him. It is a brutally horrible story you do not want children in the room for. (A Deadly Gaming Friendship) *** Being the victim of a stalker is terrifying – not knowing when or where the person might show up next, or what they'll do to you when they do show up. But there are those who have an even more terrifying situation – where the stalker follows them their entire lives, and there's nothing they can do to stop it – because the stalker is paranormal. (Phantom Stalkers) *** The 1725 newspaper headline read “Bloodsucker Devastates Village!” And thus began a great vampire epidemic.

What better time to tell four scary stories than...right between Thanksgiving and Christmas? Here's the flimsy pretext: after coming home from a so-so horror movie, Joey, Jack, and Pacey make like a Treehouse Of Horror and tell their own stories. What happened to Joey in the library? Jack when he was alone in the frat house? Pacey on an improbable drive home with Karen? And what scarifying tale did Grams hear from Jen? We go through them all in our latest podcast episode, if you're not too much of a fraidy-cat to listen!JOIN THE AWT CLUB

Dan brings us one, long tale today.  We meet a young woman who moved into an old San Francisco house with roommates and then began to  hear things. The more she hears, the creepier and more disturbing  things get. I don't want to give away any more than that. No lore, no historical set ups, just a deeply disturbing story. Lynze balances out the show with three tales the go from creepy, to creepier, to creepiest! We begin with two young kids creeping out their mom, then we go on to an uninvited visitor and wrap up with three friends needing to GTFO. Hope you enjoy!Crime Wave At Sea 2.0!
