imlazyyyyyy ,

As a fan of several true crime podcasts, it’s good to see some good content from the Philippines!

Well produced and well-researched as well. Also it’s no nonsense, straightforward storytelling, without the overly unnecessary banters that several true crime podcasts seem to suffer from. Looking forward to more episodes, and hope you get sponsors in the future. I’d be interested to support the podcast through Patreon :)

MORE STORIES PLEASE!!!!

I literally have to listen to this while the lights are on, or wait ’til morning! I was deadass scared, and gave me chills lol! Gather some more crime/thriller/horror stories, this is worth listening to!

M.Grys ,

My favorite!

This is the best true crime/horror podcast I’ve listened too, and nothing else comes close. I wish there are more episodes. Heck, I wish true crime podcasts are like this! I like how it’s narrated and everything is explained in details. Keep it coming, please.
