I’m running out of spooky stories. Help me out, what are some of your favourite spooky story podcasts?

I like narrative story style podcasts and dislike the style where there are multiple people bantering off-topic before discussing a spooky topic.

    Lore might be a good candidate - one narrator relaying stories from history that are dark or spooky in one way or another. It’s quite fun and well-produced.

    https://www.lorepodcast.com/

    Be warned that he approaches history from a folklore standpoint and will sort of tell you the spooky story version of what happened and how it impacts modern day pop culture - so if you compare one of his (fairly short) episodes on a well-docunented famous murder or something to a deep-dive series or book on the subject it will be missing information.

    I only know one, but it’s great: The Magnus Archives. Maybe you should list some you already know and like.

    If you’re looking exclusively for fiction, I love HorrorBabble. Classic and modern horror stories read by two great readers.

    If you’re interested in supposedly true stories, I like the Paranormal Mysteries podcast, it’s usually ghosts/aliens/cryptid/weird occurrences stories written in by the audience. With anything that’s written in, they can be hit or miss but I generally like it.
