Featured Article: Venture into the Unknown and Unexplained with the Best Paranormal Podcasts


The paranormal genre is perfectly suited to podcasts, given how its ties to myths and legends are rooted in oral storytelling. In the same way that a campfire tale can give you goosebumps, the best paranormal podcasts are as much about performance and structure as the story itself. Some, like the gothic fiction of old, are purely imagined, while others offer a window into the unseen and unexplained pockets of our own reality.

Just checking in.

Great range of topics, from true crime to pop culture to random weird happenings. This is not a deep dive type podcast, more like a shallow swim. Just the right length for a short drive to work, not for long commutes or road trips.
But a good jumping off place to lead you to further research, or a great reminder of stuff you forgot about.

*and if you don’t like the middle, just skip ahead. Don’t write a bad review because you don’t like the check in.
If I could change one thing to give GT 5 stars it would be a solid sign-off/ ending. Most times I don’t know the story is over until the next episode begins.

Terrible Podcast and Hosts

Way way way too many ads for the amount of content.

The stories themselves are 90% background and filler.

The hosts are annoying. Not funny, talk too fast, and don't seem to care at all about their subject matter.
