    Unknown Broadcast | Black Magic, Killer Cargo & Classic Radio Terror: Four Old-Time Horror Stories

    Unknown Broadcast slips once more into the Weekly Spooky feed, carrying a midnight cargo of old-time radio horror stories, classic OTR suspense, supernatural mystery, occult terror, and dreadful little accidents that refuse to stay buried. Tonight’s transmission gathers four vintage nightmares from the shadowed side of the dial: black magic on a college campus, death crawling loose aboard a ship, a lonely woman’s diary curdling into terror, and a fatal road accident that becomes something far more twisted. The host is here. The tea is warm. The room is waiting. And if the stories sound like they were meant for you… well, perhaps they were. 🕯️ The Sending — A university lecture on ancient magic opens the door to something older than reason, as youth, power, and blood become part of a terrible bargain. 🐍 A Shipment of Mute Fate — A ship carries deadly cargo across the sea, but when that cargo escapes, every dark corner becomes a hiding place for death. 📖 The Diary of Sophronia Winters — A lonely woman believes romance has finally found her, but the pages of her diary begin to reveal a much colder, crueler destiny. 🚗 Blind Alley — A drunken accident, a hidden body, and a wealthy family’s secrets twist into a trap where guilt may not be the only thing waiting in the dark. Four classic OTR horror stories drift through Unknown Broadcast tonight… and somewhere between the static, the shadows, and the old radio glow, something may already be drifting back toward you. 🎧 LISTEN NOW and subscribe for spine-tingling horror stories every week! 🎉 Unlock exclusive bonus episodes and support the show on Patreon! 👉 WeeklySpooky.com/Join 📬 Contact Us / Submit Your Horror Story!

  2. Backwoods Horror and Road Trip Nightmares: 4 Scary Stories of Gas Stations, Ozark Terror, and Dead-End Towns

    1 DAY AGO

    Backwoods Horror and Road Trip Nightmares: 4 Scary Stories of Gas Stations, Ozark Terror, and Dead-End Towns

    Backwoods horror, road trip terror, gas station nightmares, isolated towns, Ozark creatures, and middle-of-nowhere survival collide in this brutal collection of four creepy horror stories. If you love roadside dread, rural secrets, desperate escapes, strange towns, and stories where one wrong turn changes everything, this episode is built to leave dirt under your nails and headlights in your nightmares. Tonight’s lineup takes you from a father-daughter road trip that veers into pure nightmare, to a security job in a town where something ancient is waiting beneath a church, to a vicious Ozark creature feature soaked in blood and panic, and finally to a gas station shift where the fluorescent lights hide something far darker than bad coffee and impatient customers. This is horror at the edge of the map—where the woods close in, the locals know more than they say, and the next stop might be the worst mistake of your life. • Strike-Out! — by Morgan Moore A spring road trip to see family turns catastrophic when a father and daughter break down at the worst possible place imaginable. Tense, nasty, and full of survival-horror momentum, this one feels like a childhood nightmare told with the pedal pinned down. • I Was Sent to a Small Town Where Strange Things Were Happening — by Michael Kelso A security specialist arrives in a remote New England town to investigate frightened workers and finds vanished people, forbidden tunnels, and something inhuman wearing a human face. This one leans hard into eerie isolation, old evil, and creeping dread. • Bite Me — by David O’Hanlon A reunion weekend in the Ozarks becomes a blood-soaked creature nightmare when something impossible starts feeding in the woods. Wild, fast, and vicious, it mixes backwoods horror with monster-movie chaos in the best way. • I Hate Working at the Gas Station After Discovering Its Dark Secret — by Michael Kelso A bitter overnight clerk, a missing coworker, corporate surveillance, and a horrifying secret tied to a distribution center turn a routine gas station job into full paranoid nightmare fuel. Funny, grim, and deeply unsettling. From lonely mountain roads to church basements, flea-ridden woods, and convenience stores where the cameras always seem to be watching, this collection is all about the moment a familiar place turns wrong and keeps getting worse. 🎧 LISTEN NOW and subscribe for spine-tingling horror stories every week! 🎉 Unlock exclusive bonus episodes and support the show on Patreon! 👉 WeeklySpooky.com/Join 📬 Contact Us / Submit Your Horror Story!

  3. Best of 2025 | Typhoid Mary: The Shocking True Story of New York’s Silent Killer

    2 DAYS AGO

    Best of 2025 | Typhoid Mary: The Shocking True Story of New York’s Silent Killer

    Typhoid Mary: The Shocking True Story of New York’s Silent Killer is one of the most eerie, gripping, and unexpectedly timely episodes of Terrifying & True. In this Best of 2025 revisit, we return to the haunting real case of Mary Mallon, the woman history would remember as Typhoid Mary—an apparently healthy cook linked to deadly typhoid fever outbreaks across New York and Long Island. At the center of this unforgettable historical mystery is a terrifying idea: what if the person spreading disease shows no symptoms at all? In the early 1900s, affluent households were suddenly struck by baffling illness. The homes were clean, the water was safe, and no one could explain why people kept getting sick. As investigators followed the trail, they uncovered one of the most chilling public health cases in American history—one involving invisible infection, forced quarantine, fear, stigma, and a woman who insisted she had done nothing wrong. This episode is one of the most engrossing Terrifying & True episodes of 2025 because it works on so many levels at once: as a historical true story, a medical mystery, a New York nightmare, and a disturbing ethical drama about freedom, blame, and public safety. It’s creepy not because of gore or violence, but because the threat is silent, intimate, and impossible to see. That makes this Best of 2025 re-air especially strong for discoverability—and especially worth revisiting. Inside this episode: The 1906 Oyster Bay outbreak that launched the mysteryGeorge Soper’s investigation into a hidden source of repeated typhoid casesMary Mallon’s confrontation, arrest, and forced testingThe quarantine on North Brother Island and the legal controversy that followedHer return to cooking under aliases and the second outbreak that sealed her fateWhy Typhoid Mary still matters today in conversations about disease, stigma, and public healthIf you’re drawn to historical true crime, dark history, medical mysteries, epidemic stories, New York history, and bizarre real cases that feel almost unbelievable, this is one of the strongest examples of what Terrifying & True does best. This Best of 2025 episode is a chance to revisit one of the show’s most unsettling and memorable stories—one that still feels unnervingly relevant more than a century later. We’re telling that story tonight. 🎧 LISTEN NOW and subscribe for spine-tingling horror stories every week! 🎉 Unlock exclusive bonus episodes and support the show on Patreon! 👉 WeeklySpooky.com/Join 📬 Contact Us / Submit Your Horror Story!

    Concrete Evidence: A Creepy Summer Job Horror Story About a House with Secrets

    A strange man. A summer job that sounds too easy. A locked shed. A half-built pink concrete house. And three teenage friends who slowly realize they may be helping a killer build something far more horrifying than a home. In this gruesome and darkly funny episode of Weekly Spooky, a group of broke teenagers near Toronto, Ontario are desperate for summer work when they meet Frank Chopski — a bizarre, wild-eyed stranger with a rusty truck, a creepy little pink teddy bear, and an offer that seems impossible to refuse. Ten dollars an hour just to clean old car parts and carry concrete blocks across a field? Easy money. But Frank is secretive about his locked shed. He never lets the boys inside. He guards his tools. He hauls out garbage bags, towels, saws, hatchets, and heavy handmade concrete blocks dyed a strange shade of pink. And as the summer drags on, the friends begin to notice disturbing details embedded inside the blocks they’ve been carrying by hand. What starts as a weird summer job becomes a horrifying discovery of body horror, serial killer madness, hidden evidence, and a house literally built out of secrets. If you love scary stories about creepy strangers, summer job horror, serial killer fiction, body horror, dark humor, disturbing mysteries, killer next door stories, and gruesome twist endings, this episode is ready to pour the concrete, smooth the edges, and seal something terrible inside forever. Come for the easy money, my spookies… but don’t look too closely at the walls.

    5 DAYS AGO

    This Week in Horror History | Friday the 13th, House of Wax & The Burning Camp Slashers — May 4–10

    This Week in Horror History for May 4–10 dives into a killer week of horror movie history, slasher movie anniversaries, cult horror films, horror comics, survival horror games, and classic monster adventure. This episode revisits the bloody legacy of Friday the 13th, the 2005 remake of House of Wax, the serial-killer comic-book mystery Nailbiter, the retro survival-horror game Crow Country, and this week’s Deep-Cut Spotlight: The Burning, one of the most brutal and underrated 1980s camp slasher movies. Inside this episode: May 7, 2014 — Nailbiter #1 A modern horror comic favorite from Image Comics introduces Buckaroo, Oregon—a small town with a terrifying reputation for producing serial killers. If you love crime horror, serial killer stories, creepy small-town mysteries, and horror comics, this one belongs on your radar. Where to read (U.S., this week): Image Comics, Kindle/Comixology, and collected editions from Image and major booksellers. May 6, 2005 — House of Wax The 2005 House of Wax remake brings glossy 2000s horror, slasher-movie chaos, and a gruesome wax museum setting together in one sticky nightmare. A cult favorite of the era, it mixes road-trip horror, trapped-tourist terror, melting bodies, and brutal setpieces. Where to watch (U.S., this week): Tubi; rent/buy on Prime Video, Apple TV, and Fandango at Home. May 9, 1980 — Friday the 13th One of the most important slasher movies of all time hits theaters and turns Camp Crystal Lake into horror history. From isolated cabins and doomed counselors to the birth of a franchise that would make Jason Voorhees a horror icon, Friday the 13th helped define the modern summer-camp slasher. Where to watch (U.S., this week): Paramount+; rent/buy on Prime Video, Apple TV, and Fandango at Home. May 9, 2024 — Crow Country The indie horror game Crow Country brings retro survival-horror atmosphere back with eerie puzzles, abandoned amusement-park dread, old-school tension, and modern genre polish.

Deep-Cut Spotlight — May 8, 1981: The Burning This week’s Deep-Cut Spotlight heads back to summer camp for The Burning, a grimy 1981 slasher packed with Tom Savini effects, campfire trauma, garden shears, and one of the most infamous raft massacre scenes in horror history. Overshadowed in the original slasher boom, it has since become a true cult horror classic and one of the essential 1980s camp slasher films. Where to watch (U.S., this week): Tubi, The Roku Channel, MGM+; rent/buy on Prime Video, Apple TV, and Fandango at Home. Birthday Roll: Lance Henriksen, David Keith, Kevin Peter Hall, and Meg Foster.

  6. Terrifying & True | The Fox Sisters Haunting: Behind Spiritualism’s Most Famous Ghost Hoax

    6 DAYS AGO

    Terrifying & True | The Fox Sisters Haunting: Behind Spiritualism’s Most Famous Ghost Hoax

    The Fox Sisters, Hydesville, and the birth of modern Spiritualism began with something terrifyingly simple: a knock in the dark. In 1848 Hydesville, New York, two young sisters, Maggie and Kate Fox, claimed they could communicate with a mysterious spirit inside their family farmhouse. What started as eerie nighttime rappings soon became a national obsession, drawing neighbors, skeptics, journalists, believers, and grieving families desperate for proof that death was not the end. The phenomenon helped ignite one of the most influential supernatural movements in American history: Spiritualism. But was it a true haunting… or one of the most consequential paranormal hoaxes ever performed? Inside this episode: The Hydesville Rappings: How strange knocks in a farmhouse became a chilling code from “the dead.”Maggie and Kate Fox: Two young girls caught between childhood mischief, family pressure, celebrity, and exploitation.Leah Fox and the Spiritualist Machine: How the sisters’ older sibling helped transform a local haunting into a public spectacle.Seances, Grief, and Belief: Why 19th-century America was so ready to believe the dead could answer.The 1888 Confession: Maggie Fox’s shocking public admission that the spirit rappings were produced by physical tricks.The Bones in the Wall: The strange 1904 discovery that seemed to vindicate the legend… until the certainty began to fall apart.This is not just a ghost story. It is a story about grief, faith, fraud, family, and the terrible human hunger to hear one more message from someone we have lost. Whether the Fox Sisters were frauds, victims, performers, believers, or all of those things at once, their story changed the way America imagined the dead. From a cold farmhouse in Hydesville, New York, to packed lecture halls and séance parlors, the Fox Sisters helped build a movement on one promise: ask the dead a question, and they might answer.

  7. Unknown Broadcast | Four Old-Time Radio Horror Stories of Fate, Prison, Murder, and Madness

    3 MAY

    Unknown Broadcast | Four Old-Time Radio Horror Stories of Fate, Prison, Murder, and Madness

    Unknown Broadcast slips once more into the Weekly Spooky feed with old-time radio horror stories, classic OTR suspense, vintage mystery radio, psychological terror, crime, fate, and uncanny dread. This transmission begins with The Lady Was a Tiger, a tale of false safety, hidden danger, and a man caught in a tightening web of murder, espionage, and betrayal, where home itself starts to feel like a trap. 🐅 The Lady Was a Tiger — What seems safe turns lethal, what feels like home becomes a prison, and danger wears a human face until it doesn’t. It has that deliciously sharp old-radio blend of intrigue, menace, and doom closing in from every side. 🕰️ Destiny — The shadowed voice promises “the amazing story of destiny,” and the tale leans hard into fate, inevitability, and the ruin waiting for anyone foolish enough to think he can outwit what is already written. It feels like noir with prophecy hanging over it. 🌹 Uncle Henry’s Rosebush — Rot, neglect, old rooms, and one impossible rosebush holding its place against the ruin around it. This one carries a graveyard stillness, a buried secret, and the creeping sense that something ugly has been tended with care for far too long. 👁️ The Horla — By the end, the night gives way to something stranger and more cosmic, as “phantoms of a world gone by” usher in The Horla. Madness, possession, and the fear of an unseen intelligence seep through this final story like poison through old walls. For listeners chasing classic OTR horror, vintage suspense radio, murder mysteries, psychological horror, supernatural dread, and eerie anthology storytelling, this episode is full of shadows that look human right up until they don’t — and some things are simply unknown to us, at least for a while. 🎧 LISTEN NOW and subscribe for spine-tingling horror stories every week! 🎉 Unlock exclusive bonus episodes and support the show on Patreon! 👉 WeeklySpooky.com/Join 📬 Contact Us / Submit Your Horror Story!

  8. Aliens, Time Rips, Cult Books, and Multiverse Terror: 4 Cosmic Horror Stories of Apocalypse and Weird Chaos

    2 MAY

    Aliens, Time Rips, Cult Books, and Multiverse Terror: 4 Cosmic Horror Stories of Apocalypse and Weird Chaos

    Cosmic horror, alien invasion nightmares, interdimensional warfare, occult terror, time-travel chaos, and apocalypse-driven weird fiction crash together in this wildly twisted Weekly Spooky compilation. If you love reality-breaking horror stories, ancient evil, multiverse destruction, cult books, and strange creatures from beyond human understanding, this collection delivers a full dose of bizarre, blood-soaked nightmare fuel. Tonight’s lineup moves from a New Year’s Eve time-rip disaster into a funeral where killer clowns play by rules all their own, then into a last-ditch battle to stop multiversal annihilation, and finally down a rain-slick spiral of crime, occult corruption, and a monster born from something that should have stayed buried. This one leans hard into weird horror: the kind where reality starts slipping, the rules stop making sense, and survival suddenly feels like a temporary condition. • Saint Jimmy — by Dan WilderA freak sound-based time-rip sends Jimmy hurtling through alternate timelines, self-inflicted paradoxes, and one gloriously deranged Y2K nightmare ruled by a leather-clad tyrant and his skeletal minions. It’s funny, chaotic, weird as hell, and loaded with sci-fi panic and end-of-the-world absurdity.  • The Fun in Funerals — by David O’HanlonA dead clown’s funeral becomes a grotesque midnight hunt when the mourners must satisfy an ancient code or face the return of something far worse than death. This one is savage, darkly funny, and drenched in monstrous carnival energy.  • Last Stand — by Rob FieldsWith Hellweaver closing in on the Infinity Core and the Reality Sphere in her grasp, the last heroes of the Battleguard gather for a doomed, universe-saving final battle. This is pure multiverse sci-fi horror spectacle with cosmic stakes and relentless devastation.  • The Last Days of Jimmy Flavor — by David O’HanlonA drifting burnout reinvents himself as “Jimmy Flavor” and gets pulled into a Vatican-backed theft, an occult conspiracy, and a nightmare pursuit involving ancient books, cult magic, and a gut-churning creature that refuses to stop hunting. Mean, strange, and desperate in all the right ways.  From torn-open timelines to infernal artifacts, undead clown law, and the collapse of whole realities, this compilation is all about staring into the impossible and realizing it is staring right back. 🎧 LISTEN NOW and subscribe for spine-tingling horror stories every week! 🎉 Unlock exclusive bonus episodes and support the show on Patreon! 👉 WeeklySpooky.com/Join 📬 Contact Us / Submit Your Horror Story!
