Stories of the Appalachian Mountains - Hoax or History?

This week on CMP, Lilly & I talk all about the Appalachian Mountains... 👀  This episode turned into such a fun conversation about Appalachian folklore, cryptids, old mountain stories, & the weird little warnings people have passed down for generations. Whether you believe any of it or not, the stories themselves are SO interesting. Also, some of the artwork you’ll see glimpses of in the background was done by Addie Fugate with @faeandfoxstudios  Go show her some love on her socials & check out her available pieces because her work is insanely cool!!

THAT WASN’T SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN…

In this short episode of Chasing Midnight, we’re diving into the accidents, experiments, & unsettling origins behind everyday things you thought you understood. From products that caused real harm, to inventions created out of fear, control, or even pure spite… the deeper you go, the more you start to realize: A lot of the “normal” things in your life were never meant to turn out this way. And once you know where they came from… you can’t really look at them the same again- good or bad. 🔗 Follow us on socials for B.T.S. photos and episode updates: 📸 Instagram, TikTok, Facebook → @ChasingMidnightPod 💌 Contact us: chasingmidnightpod@gmail.com

BUT HE MADE ME DO IT: The Slender Man Stabbing

Payton Leutner wasn’t supposed to survive… What started as a normal sleepover among three middle school friends in Waukesha, WI, took a dark and deeply unsettling turn that would make headlines in 2014. Drawn into the world of Slender Man, two girls became convinced that proving their loyalty meant carrying out the unthinkable. ••• This week on CMP, I tell you the story of how a Photoshop contest (turned internet legend) blurred the line between fiction and a sinister reality.

Cursed Slumber Party Games

Sleepover games were supposed to be fun… so why did they feel so cursed? In this episode of Chasing Midnight, we dive into the classic sleepover games many of us grew up playing: Bloody Mary, Baby Blue, Charlie Charlie, Cat Scratch, Light as a Feather, and more. We break down how these games are played, where they came from, and why they’ve stuck around for generations of brave (or bored) kids at slumber parties. The podcast episode focuses on describing the games and their spooky reputations. For the full experience, including us actually playing the games and reacting in real time, head over to our YouTube. Listener discretion advised, especially if you’re easily spooked after dark. 🌙 Night, night… love you._______________🔗 Follow us on socials for B.T.S. photos and episode updates:📸 Instagram, TikTok, Facebook → @ChasingMidnightPod💌 Contact us: chasingmidnightpod@gmail.com

WE INTERRUPT YOUR SCHEDULED PROGRAMMING

Imagine you’re watching TV late at night and suddenly… it’s not your show anymore. In this episode of Chasing Midnight, we’re talking about some of the weirdest and most unsettling TV hijackings ever—times when regular programming was interrupted by distorted voices, creepy imagery, religious messages, and people who clearly should not have been on the air. Some were meant to be jokes, some were meant to send a message, and some are still a complete mystery. Turn the lights down, don’t touch the remote, and hang out with us while we dive into the moments when someone else took over the screen. 🌙 Night, night… love you. _______________ 🔗 Follow us on socials for B.T.S. photos and episode updates: 📸 Instagram, TikTok, Facebook → @ChasingMidnightPod 💌 Contact us: chasingmidnightpod@gmail.com
