Podcasts about urban legends

New Jersey might be famous for its beaches, turnpikes, and bustling cities, but beneath its urban centers and dense wetlands lies a dark underworld of bizarre creatures and urban legends. In this episode, we explore five of New Jersey's most baffling and terrifying cryptids:The New Jersey Gator Man: A six-foot, bipedal, armored reptilian terror stalking the stagnant pools and drainage ditches of Sussex County.The Hoboken Monkey-Man: The 1982 urban panic that gripped a city's school system and left children and police searching for an apelike phantom in the alleys.The Beast of Lake Hopatcong ("Hoppie"): A massive, 40-to-50-foot serpentine lake monster complete with a horse-like head and deer-like antlers that famously shrugged off a rifle round.The Jersey Devil: The undisputed icon of the Pine Barrens born from a 1735 curse, this winged, horse-faced horror has been terrorizing locals and making statewide headlines for nearly three centuries.The Mantis Man of the Musconetcong: An 8-foot-tall, semi-transparent insectoid entity near Hackettstown that moves like a praying mantis and vanishes like a ghost.Tune in as we break down the history, the sightings, and the high strangeness behind New Jersey's most infamous monsters.Have your own story?

Schon oft haben wir uns bei HOAXILLA den Geschichten aus den Appalachen gewidmet. Mothman, die Bell Witch oder auch die Skinwalker seien als Beispiele genannt. Aber was genau macht die Faszination dieser riesigen Bergkette aus, die älter ist als die Ringe des Saturn? Warum gibt es gerade hier so viele unterschiedliche Erzählmotive, und kann man erkennen, aus welchen Kulturen sie stammen? All das haben wir uns angeschaut und dabei auch einen Blick auf die aktuelle sozioökonomische Lage der Appalachen geworfen. Wie man uns unterstützen kann, könnt ihr hier nachlesen.

Der Backrooms-Film bricht alle Kinorekorde weltweit und anlässlich dieses Phänomens wollen wir einmal über den Film sprechen, aber ihn auch gegen die Creepypasta stellen und schauen, was übernommen und was geändert wurde, was uns gefallen und gefehlt hat und wir uns die neue Generation an Internethorror-Filmen wünschen. Zu Gast haben wir dafür Filmprofi Lenny vom FUNK-Kanal Cinema Strikes Back.

Kerzenlicht, Kristalle und Zaubersprüche vor der Kamera. Unter dem Hashtag #WitchTok floriert auf TikTok eine Subkultur moderner Hexerei. Die über fünf Millionen Videos haben inzwischen über 60 Milliarden Aufrufe. Die Themen der Social Media Hexen sind Geldsorgen, Beziehungen oder das „Verfluchen“ unliebsamer Zeitgenossen. Was nach harmloser Ästhetik aussieht, hat einen ernsteren Kern: WitchTok mischt jahrhundertealte Vorstellungen von Magie mit Wellness-Trends und Selbstoptimierung und trifft damit besonders bei jungen Menschen einen Nerv. Wir haben uns WitchTok ganz genau angesehen. Wie man uns unterstützen kann, könnt ihr hier nachlesen.

Copyright ©2026, Weird Darkness.Originally aired: August 29, 2023Every state in America is hiding something. Cross the country from Alabama to Wyoming and you'll find a haunted playground where swings move on their own, a vampire buried in a Colorado cemetery, a goat-headed man lurking under a Kentucky railroad trestle, and black-eyed children knocking on car windows in Texas. Some of these urban legends are pure fiction. Others have a disturbing amount of truth buried underneath them — which is exactly what makes them stick.This episode of Weird Darkness travels through all fifty states to uncover the eeriest tale each one has to tell. There's the Alaskan Triangle, where thousands have vanished without a trace, and the shape-shifting otter people the Tlingit say are responsible. There's Resurrection Mary, the ghostly hitchhiker still searching for a dance partner outside Chicago. There's the Villisca ax murders, an unsolved 1912 slaughter that turned a family home into a haunted museum. There's Mothman over Point Pleasant, the skunk ape in the Everglades, the Jersey Devil in the Pine Barrens, and Bigfoot stalking the forests of the Pacific Northwest.Cryptids and creepy clowns. Cursed roads and phantom trains. Witches, wendigos, and vampires. Alien crash sites and portals to hell. You'll meet the "watcher" who terrorized a New Jersey family through the mail, the Bunny Man of Virginia, Walking Sam on the Pine Ridge Reservation, and the Candy Lady of rural Texas. Whether these stories were born around a campfire or dragged out of something that really happened, they've survived because nobody can quite prove they're not true.So bolt your doors, lock your windows, and find out what's whispered about in your own backyard — because every state in the Union has its own creepy collection of urban legends, and some of them might be closer than you think.

Im 257. WildMics-Special ging es wieder um das Wünschen. Doch dieses Mal wollte unser Gast zunächst lieber über die philosophischen Implikationen des Wünschens sprechen. Es folgte ein wilder assoziativer Ritt, der von Gothic Rock der 80er in einem Opel Corsa über einen Gladiatorenkampf bis zum Tode zwischen Tommy und Alexander bis hin zur tieferen Funktionsweise des Holodecks ging. Verantwortlich für diesen Ritt war Erik Haffner. Diese Sendung wurde am 30.06.2026 aufgezeichnet. Zum Crowdfunding von Eriks Brettspiel Wie man uns unterstützen kann, könnt ihr hier nachlesen.

A deadly hit-and-run. A fisherman with a hook. A killer who refuses to let the past stay buried.Tonight at Dark Academy, we're celebrating the Fourth of July with a ‘90s horror classic: I Know What You Did Last Summer. We revisit the coastal slasher that helped define a generation, discuss what still works, what makes us yell at the screen, and why the Hookman remains one of horror's most recognizable killers.Then we examine the heartbreaking true story of Tony Parsons, a charity cyclist whose fatal hit-and-run led to a cold blooded cover-up.Next, we head to Virginia to untangle the still-mysterious Colonial Parkway Murders. Recent DNA evidence identified fisherman Alan Wade Wilmer as the killer in several cases, but lingering questions and unsolved murders continue to fuel speculation that another predator may still be part of the story.Finally, we gather around the campfire for our Final Fright and trace the evolution of The Hookman urban legend. From 1940s Lovers' Lane warnings to campfire tales, Hollywood slashers, and the age of AI, why has this story survived for nearly 80 years?So grab a flashlight, stay with your friends, and whatever you do…Don't stop on a lonely road.

Konstantin Raudive war zu Lebzeiten einer der bekanntesten Erforscher der Elektronischen Stimmphänomene (EVP) – jener rätselhaften Stimmen, die angeblich auf Tonaufnahmen enthalten sind, ohne dass eine natürliche Erklärung dafür vorliegt. 1974 starb er. Doch damit war sein Einfluss auf die Szene offenbar noch nicht beendet. Zwanzig Jahre nach seinem Tod soll Raudive mehrfach telefonisch Kontakt mit verschiedenen Personen aufgenommen haben. Unter scheinbar gut dokumentierten Umständen. Gläubige sahen darin den endgültigen Beweis für ein Leben nach dem Tod. Skeptiker sind nicht wirklich überzeugt. Was steckt hinter den angeblichen Jenseitsanrufen? Was sind EVP überhaupt, und warum hören Menschen in Rauschen und Störgeräuschen bedeutungsvolle Botschaften? Wir haben ganz genau hingehört.

Underwater Jaguars, unsettling and real urban legends (Faofao!), and Phantom Barber of 1942.

What was supposed to be a quiet fishing trip at a family lake cabin turns into a waking nightmare when a sound crying from the darkness draws them to the water's edge. In this chilling Creepypasta and True Scary Stories narration, deep woods silence, fog-covered lakes, and something inhuman lurking near the shoreline unravel everything they thought they knew. Perfect for fans of Deep Woods Horror Stories, Horror Stories, and Scary Stories, this tale builds relentless tension as curiosity becomes terror and the woods reveal a hunger that doesn't belong to this world. Listen carefully… some cries are meant to lure you closer.

STRANGE MYSTERIES Episode #15 !with Steve Stockton - MODERN FAE ENCOUNTERS -  In this episode, we leave the delicate, winged sprites of Victorian picture books behind and step straight into the unsettling, modern-day reality of the fae. These are not the gentle creatures of bedtime stories—they are erratic, territorial, and sometimes deeply predatory. From a harrowing, high-noon encounter with a child-hunting river dweller in the North Carolina Piedmont to an aggressive run-in with a leafy, hidden entity deep within the Mendip Hills of Somerset, we are counting down ten genuine, terrifying fairy sightings from recent decades. The old breed never truly left the woods. They are still out there, just waiting for the modern world to look away. --- * **The River Predator:** A summer afternoon turns into a fight for survival when an pale, needle-toothed entity stalks two young boys in North Carolina. * **The Brazilian Tree Entity:** Two rural witnesses watch an old, moss-covered form drop its disguise deep within the rainforest. * **The New York White Flyers:** A young child's nighttime encounter with ageless, floating figures outside a closed bedroom window. * **The Artichoke Man of Somerset:** A modern hiker accidentally disturbs a hidden sanctuary in the Mendips, drawing the raw fury of a leaf-like entity.

Perfect for horror enthusiasts, scary story collectors, and late-night listeners seeking immersive, cinematic storytelling.Inside this episode:• Mortal Eclipse — by Rob FieldsA powerful Master Vampire becomes dangerously human during a rare solar eclipse, leaving her vulnerable to enemies who have been waiting for the perfect time to strike.

As the bodies pile up, a bartender fights to survive a savage urban vampire attack that may not end when the sun comes up. • Stakes n' Shoguns — by Dan WilderOn New Year's Eve, a man hoping to watch a bloody samurai movie in a grimy theater finds himself trapped with drunken vampires, bat swarms, a disgraced priest, and something that may be Count Dracula himself. It's a filthy, funny, chaotic vampire nightmare soaked in grindhouse energy and midnight-movie madness. • Convenience Store Vampire — by Douglas WaltzA bored night-shift clerk at a convenience store meets a mysterious woman who appears without setting off the doorbell and slowly draws him into her strange, romantic, undead world. When violence erupts during a robbery, his ordinary life ends… and eternity begins. If you love vampire horror podcasts, scary vampire stories, bloodsucker fiction, supernatural romance, punk vampires, Dracula horror, midnight movie monsters, vampire attacks, and darkly funny horror, this compilation delivers a bloody mix of action, atmosphere, comedy, romance, and undead terror.

This is the stuff of Late Night Horror... The Walt Disney cryogenic frozen conspiracy has haunted Disneyland lore for 60 years—but what if the real horror is how a debunked myth became immortal? Henrique Couto investigates the supernatural folklore behind the legend: the 1960s cryonics craze that made it plausible, the tabloid lies about secret chambers beneath Pirates of the Caribbean, and how Walt Disney's official biography unexpectedly breathed new life into the urban legend. A chilling true crime mystery of myth-making itself and how weird experiences can keep an idea alive.

A terrifying vision, a terrifying UFO encounter, and evidence of the encounter buried in his arm – if true, Tim Cullen's story could change everything we think we know about extraterrestrials.EPISODE BLOG PAGE (includes sources): https://weirddarkness.com/timcullenREAD or DOWNLOAD the full transcript of this episode: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/433fftc2FEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: Tim Cullen's life changed forever after a chilling dream in 1978. It wasn't long after that he had bizarre encounters with UFOs, was abducted by aliens, and found a strange piece of metal embedded in his arm. Were these encounters real? If so, what secrets lie within the alien implant removed from his body? (The Alien Abduction of Tim Cullen) *** The life of Martha Place took a dark turn in 1899. Convicted of a brutal murder, Martha faced a horrifying punishment… she was about to become the first woman to be executed by the electric chair. (The First Woman in the Electric Chair) *** We'll look at a double-murder case where real crime collides with reality TV, resulting in real-life horror. (The Wife-Swap Murders) *** Steve's childhood was marked by inexplicable and spine-chilling encounters. Eerie breathing sounds, a manifestation at his bedside, being pushed down the stairs… all without a rational explanation. Even moving away wouldn't bring his paranormal tormenting to an end. (The Entity That Follows) *** The urban legend of "The Licked Hand” is a chilling tale that has been whispered around campfires and shared at sleepovers for generations, tapping into our deepest fears of invasion and vulnerability. But this isn't just any ghost story; it's a timeless warning about the dangers lurking in the darkness, waiting to infiltrate our homes and lives… and it even has a bit of truth to it.

Copyright ©2026, Weird Darkness.Originally aired: April 10, 2024This episode of Weird Darkness moves from a recovered alien implant in a Colorado man's forearm to the first woman ever sent to the electric chair, through the campfire legend of the licked hand, a Wife Swap family destroyed by one son's gunfire, and a breathing entity that stalked a boy from one English city to another.It opens with Tim Cullen, who dreamed on April 2nd, 1978 that he would be in a violent traffic accident, then lived it a week later on April 9th when his friend Ken Ruberg's car rolled over multiple times and left Cullen with a broken neck. Recovering in the hospital, he had a second vivid dream, this one of a UFO, and on May 30th of that year, while driving Highway 59 home from a checkup with his pregnant wife Janet, the couple watched a silent, glowing craft roughly 100 feet long hover over a pasture with two diffused lights — one yellow, one red — glowing at its rear. Cullen reported two more sightings along the same Yuma, Colorado stretch of road, one in 1980 and another in 1994 witnessed by his wife and three daughters, but the encounters faded from his mind until 1998, when he hit his thumb with a hammer and Dr. Mark Hubner at the Yuma Clinic spotted a piece of metal lodged in his forearm on the X-ray. Convinced the object was an alien implant, Cullen contacted Roger K. Leir, who surgically removed it on February 5th, 2000 in Thousand Oaks, California — a melon-seed-shaped fragment about 7 centimeters long, wrapped in a reddish-brown membrane, with a magnetic core that leapt half an inch off the table toward a magnet.From there the episode turns to March 20th, 1899, when Martha Place became the first woman executed in the electric chair at Sing Sing Prison in New York, a procedure so unfamiliar with a female prisoner that her executioners cut a slit in the black dress she had sewn herself to reach her ankles. Born Martha Garrettson in Millstone, New Jersey in 1849, she had been struck in the head by a sleigh at 23 and, her brother believed, never fully recovered. After marrying widower William Place and coming to hate her teenage stepdaughter Ida, she threw acid into the 17-year-old girl's face on February 7th, 1898, smothered her with bedding, and waited with an ax for William, whom she wounded as he stepped through the door. Governor Theodore Roosevelt refused to commute her sentence, and after the words "God help me," 1,760 volts ended her life at the age of 49.Next comes the urban legend of the licked hand, in which a girl left home alone with her German Shepherd reaches down through the night to feel a reassuring lick, only to wake and find her dog skinned in the shower and the words "Humans can lick too" scrawled on the mirror. The legend's roots reach back to an 1871 entry in The Diary of a Victorian Squire by Dearman Birchall, run through M.R. James's 1919 story "The Diary of Mr. Poynter," and surface in the film Urban Legend with its "aren't you glad you didn't turn on the lights" variant. Folklorists including Trevor Blank of SUNY Potsdam account for the tale's endurance, and its dread finds a real-world echo in Dennis Rader, the BTK strangler, who cut the phone lines at Marine Hedge's home on April 27th, 1985 and hid in her closet for hours before she returned.The episode then examines a double murder rooted in reality television, the case of the Stockdale family, who appeared on an April 23rd, 2008 episode of Wife Swap trading mothers with the easygoing Tonkovic household. Raised under a strict religious regime that banned video games, dating, and most contact with the outside world, Jacob Stockdale fatally shot his mother Kathy and his brother James in the head on June 15th, 2017 in Beach City, Ohio, then survived a self-inflicted gunshot. He pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity and tried more than once to flee the mental institution holding him, including a plan to hide behind stacks of books being carted out, but Dr. Arcangela Wood judged him sane at the time of the killings. Jacob ultimately pleaded guilty and received two consecutive 15-year terms, 30 years for the deaths of his mother and brother.The episode closes with an account written by UFO Insight's Marcus Lowth and told to him by a man he calls Steve, who first heard breathing beside his face at age three or four in 1970s Newcastle, England. The encounters escalated over the following years — an invisible finger shoving his cheek, the manifestation of a grey-haired man around 50 in an old-fashioned suit at his bedside, and a push that sent him tumbling down a full flight of stairs in daylight. When the family moved to a semi-detached house near Sheffield in Yorkshire, the presence followed, culminating one night around midnight when Steve, then eight or nine, felt invisible knees pin him to the mattress and unseen hands tighten around his throat until the grip suddenly released and the breathing drained away into the distance. It never returned, leaving unresolved whether the entity was a poltergeist drawn to a child, the lingering ghost of an old man, or something demonic that fixed on a person rather than a place.

Two months after walking away from the Tombstone feud a free man, Johnny Ringo was found dead against a tree with a Colt in his hand. He had survived the Hoodoo War, jail breaks, and a showdown with Doc Holliday — but no one can agree on what finally killed him.EPISODE BLOG PAGE (includes sources): https://weirddarkness.com/JohnnyRingoREAD or DOWNLOAD the full transcript of this episode: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/24j5xybkFEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: A gentleman gunslinger who could quote Shakespeare, Johnny Ringo was a mythic gunslinger who died a mysterious death befitting his legend. (The Mysterious Death of Outlaw Johnny Ringo) *** To his family and neighbors, Richard Kuklinski was the all-American man. To the mafia and his victims, he was the "devil himself" known as the Iceman killer. (The Mafia's Most Prolific Hitman) *** Wherever tragedies happen, urban legends settle. And for almost every urban legend, there is a road to take you there… a road often just as terrifying as the urban legend it takes you to. (Roads that Lead to Urban Legends) *** We'll look at the true story of a bar bouncer accused of killing his wife… which is odd, seeing as the incident took place before he killed a man while defending her honor. (A Broad-Shouldered Bully Was Wiener) *** Extraterrestrials come in all shapes and sizes if you believe what you see on television, film, and even online in the fringe conversations of UFO enthusiasts. The most famous of the aliens are usually depicted in the very realistic, humanoid form… the Greys. But what exactly are the Greys? And is it possible they aren't extraterrestrial at all? (What Are The Greys) *** We'll meet a man who has an amazing superpower. He is especially proficient at passing gas.

Copyright ©2026, Weird Darkness.Originally aired: November, 2021This episode of Weird Darkness travels from a gunfighter's unexplained death under an Arizona oak tree to a mafia hitman's freezer, a tour of the world's most haunted highways, a St. Louis hanging, a British flatulence performer, and the enduring question of what the Grey aliens actually are.It opens with Johnny Ringo, the Shakespeare-quoting outlaw and cousin to the Younger and James brothers, who survived the Hoodoo War of Mason County, Texas, a jailbreak, multiple murder charges, and a near-shootout with Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday on the streets of Tombstone — only to be found dead on July 13, 1882, slumped against a tree with a .45 caliber Colt in his right hand. The coroner called it suicide. Others pointed to the cartridges in his gun, the absence of powder burns, the odd position of his hat, and later confessions attributed to Earp himself, and called it murder. Biographers Jack Burrows and David Johnson weighed the same evidence a century later and sided with suicide, a quiet end for a man newspapers once misspelled into legend as "Ringgold."From there the episode moves to St. Louis in 1877, where Billy Wieners — a hulking bouncer at the Theatre Comique saloon, already out on bond for trying to kill his wife — shot assistant barkeeper A.V. Lawrence dead for insulting that same wife. The Missouri Supreme Court found nothing in the record to soften a verdict of deliberate murder, and after his sister Annie's commutation campaign failed to move Governor Phelps, Wieners hanged in the St. Louis jail yard on February 1, 1878, using his last words to warn other men away from whiskey.Next comes a road trip through the world's haunted highways: Zombie Road in Wildwood, Missouri; India's cursed Ranchi-Jamshedpur NH33, where 245 people died in three years and a woman in a white saree patrols the asphalt; South Africa's N9 with the hitchhiking ghost of Maria Roux; Australia's "Street With No Name" in Annandale; the werewolf sightings on Yorkshire's B1249; Malaysia's Karak Highway, where a creature was seen battering a husband's head against his own car roof; Scotland's A75 Kinmount Straight and its phantom animals; Long Island's Mount Misery and Sweet Hollow roads; the unearthed Hawaiian warrior bones beneath Oahu's H-1; Thailand's temple-haunting murdered wife on Chak Phra Road; and the ghosts scattered along old Route 66.The darkness deepens with Richard Kuklinski, the Gambino-affiliated contract killer known as the Iceman, who froze his victims' bodies in industrial freezers so the time of death could never be fixed. Convicted of six murders, he claimed hundreds, killing with cyanide nasal spray, ice picks, hand grenades, and his bare hands while coaching his children's barbecues and ushering Sunday Mass in suburban New Jersey. An ATF sting through his only friend, Phil Solimene, ended the run in 1986, and Kuklinski spent his remaining years giving prison interviews until his death in 2006 — a week after his wife Barbara declined, one last time, to lift the do-not-resuscitate order she had signed.The mood lifts with Paul Oldfield of Macclesfield, England, the performer called Mr. Methane, who discovered during a teenage yoga session that he could draw air into his colon at will and built a stage career on controlled flatulence — playing Phil Collins parodies, alarming Howard Stern, and logging 86 farts in a single minute for a 2018 Guinness World Records attempt, a talent the record book had refused to touch back in 1990.The episode closes among the Greys, the large-eyed, gray-skinned beings that dominate alien abduction reports from Betty and Barney Hill onward. Ufologists describe two castes — tall telepathic leaders and smaller cloned workers — originating in the Zeta Reticuli binary star system 38 light years away, harvesting human sperm and eggs to repair DNA ruined by generations of cloning. A rival theory holds that the Greys are not extraterrestrials at all but human beings from a distant future: taller, thinner, larger-brained time travelers returning to collect healthy genetic material from before whatever catastrophe awaits us.
