Scared To Death

Room 1009

Dan takes us to downtown Dallas, across from Union Station, to an old hotel that’s changed names so many times it’s like it keeps trying to hide from its past. Room 1009 doesn't seem to care what the hotel is called, though. Stories of encounters with its ghosts remain unchanged. The room allegedly has a long, sordid history of murders and suspicious deaths tied to it. Then we explore the lore of the elegant Adolphous Hotel. It’s been collecting tragedy since the first month it opened. On the nineteenth floor, guests still report hearing a woman sobbing like her heart is breaking in real time. Lynze starts off with a possible Grim Reaper sighting on the night of a confirmed death. Then, we head to Key West AKA Bone Island, for a ghost tour with an actual ghost. Lastly, on a long drive home after a long week of work, a man encounters someone who seems to have wandered out of their final resting place.  Do you want to get all of our episodes a WEEK early, ad free?

The Woman of the Woods

Dan gets us going with an unsolved paranormal mystery double headed this year! A  nursing student who crashed her car on a lonely New Hampshire highway in the middle of a winter night seemingly vanished . Locals whisper that Route 112 is haunted by “the Woman of the Woods,” a figure seen walking the tree line before other strange crashes and disappearances. Did Maura Murray step into the forest that night to somewhere the living can’t follow? Then we explore the story of Barbara Bolick, who  took a short day hike and in less than a minute she was simply… gone. Then Lynze kicks off 2026 with three tales. The first, a strange man in a large house is giving a group of teenagers the scare of a lifetime. Next up, a grown adult experiences a very private and very noisy encounter with a bathroom ghost. Lastly, what is keeping someone awake, late at night, just outside their window? Do you want to get all of our episodes a WEEK early, ad free? Want to help us support amazing charities?

The Face Peelers Of Peru

Dan takes us to Peru for our last stories of 2025. We begin in the  Amazon, where indigenous villagers say seven-foot-tall armored beings with glowing yellow eyes drift through the trees at night, freezing their victims in place and taking “samples” of skin, fat, and organs. Then we go beneath the city of Lima, to a maze of tunnels stacked with the bones of tens of thousands of colonial dead, arranged in spirals and pits like macabre artwork. Tourists and locals alike report getting lost in the darkness of the San Francisco Catacombs - hearing whispered prayers from sealed passageways and more, suggesting that the catacombs maybe aren’t just a museum, but instead, a place where the dead still watch the living who dare to enter their final home. Then, Lynze wraps up 2025 with two tales. Her first is really, really creepy. A New Year's Eve scare to ring in the new year. Then, a terrible idea for a first date leads to grave encounter.  Do you want to get all of our episodes a WEEK early, ad free? Want to help us support amazing charities? Join us on Patreon!
