Ep. #2. The Full Moon at School

In this thrilling second episode of Once Upon a Scare, Lucy and Charlie return to school… but something feels different. Their senses are sharper, their bodies are buzzing with strange energy, and even their dog Churro knows something is wrong. The full moon is only hours away, and their secret is getting harder to hide. When a mysterious Shadow appears in the hallway — stretching like smoke and watching their every move — the twins realize they aren’t just dealing with new powers… they might be being followed. Things go from bad to worse during the school camping trip. Scary stories, crackling campfires, rustling trees, and the glowing full moon make it nearly impossible for Lucy and Charlie to stay in control. Every sound feels too loud. Every shadow looks too real. And somewhere deep in the forest… something howls back. Will the twins keep their werewolf side hidden from their classmates? Can they survive a full moon in the woods? And what is that shadow that keeps appearing? Find out in this suspenseful, funny, and magical adventure — packed with mystery, midnight danger, and the strength it takes to stay human when your inner wolf wants out. Stay tuned until the end for Mia’s special message… and a hint of the spooky secrets coming in Episode 3!

The Howling Secret

🌕 Once Upon a Scare — Spooky Stories for Brave Kids Welcome back, brave listeners! In this brand-new season of Once Upon a Scare, Mia takes us on a mysterious, howling adventure to a rainy little town where nothing is as ordinary as it seems. Lucy and Charlie are just two regular twins living on Hollow Creek Lane — until strange things start happening. They can smell cookies that haven’t even baked yet… hear whispers from streets away… and on one stormy night, everything changes. 🌧️🐾 With their loyal pup Churro by their side, the twins uncover a chilling family secret that’s been hidden for generations. What begins as a spooky mystery soon turns into a full-moon transformation — complete with claws, fur, glowing eyes, and a whole lot of laughter. But being a werewolf isn’t all howls and midnight runs… it’s about courage, family, and learning how to be brave — even when your paws are shaking. 👀 Are Lucy and Charlie ready to handle the moonlight magic that runs in their blood? Tune in to find out — because once the howling begins… there’s no turning back. 🎙️ Episode Theme: Family secrets, bravery, and the magic of transformation 🐺 Next episode: The Full Moon at School

Trina Omaira – The Apure River Tamer

Legend says that deep in Venezuela, the Apure River roars— a wild branch of the Orinoco, swollen with rain, swirling with whirlpools, sharp-toothed piranhas, and caimans with jaws strong enough to snap a tree in half. Even the bravest men feared to cross it. But in 1932, in the town of San Fernando, a girl only ten years old accepted a challenge no one believed possible: to swim across the furious river and survive. Her name was Trina Omaira Salerno—and her story became a legend. With her father following nervously in a canoe, Trina plunged into the raging waters. She fought the twisting current, slipped past the dreaded piranhas, and outpaced the snapping jaws of caimans. For half an hour she battled the river, while the whole town stood on the banks, holding its breath. And when at last she pulled herself onto the far shore—soaked, trembling, but alive—the people of San Fernando erupted in cheers that rose louder than the river’s roar. 👻 Gather close, because tonight on Once Upon a Scare, we tell the incredible legend of Trina Omaira—the child who tamed the river.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
