    277 | Philip K. Dick’s Visions Are Still Terrifying People...

    His stories warned us about the future. He told us what was coming if we slept, and in our hubris we ignored the warnings and created the world we were afraid of. We were entertained. We thought deeply about the concepts. We found those we wanted to blame then we persecuted them. We often talk about reality here. Is any of this real? Today’s little journey into the nature of reality begins in a chair. It is made to be comfortable but it never is. If this is your first time hearing this story about this chair you may be envisioning something sinister, something painful, and your thoughts are moving in the right direction. Your version of this sinister chair might be a bit extravagant. And I assure you it is simple. Because in Philip K Dick’s reality it is simply a dentist chair, and a Pink Light. A light that opened his mind to a download of information. But where did it come from, and who sent it? Had he lost his mind, or was it a revelation illuminating a world that had been hidden to him and remains hidden to most of us? We'll see you on the inside..

    After Dark | Divine Security & A Floating Doll (004)

    Welcome back to TFD After Dark. In today's episode we're exploring moments when the unseen draws impossibly close. A man watches his sleeping partner silently mouth desperate words—only visible when he isn’t looking directly at her, suggesting an intelligence that exists just outside the reach of light. In a decaying extended-stay hotel, a woman encounters a faceless figure she instinctively recognizes as death, only to later witness what feels like a spirit’s final departure. These are not loud hauntings, but intimate ones, unfolding in bedrooms and stairwells where escape feels limited. Later, we continue with objects and instincts that defy reason. A child’s doll floats deliberately through the air, turning corners before dropping lifelessly to the floor, leaving no physical explanation behind. And on a dark walk home, a woman is guided by a calm, commanding presence that intervenes just in time to save her life. Together, these true stories examine protection and predation, the thin line between warning and terror, and the unsettling idea that sometimes what watches us isn’t there to harm, but to decide when to act. Stories: 0:00 - Christian's a Pervert 3:54 - STORY: Wide Eyed Mouthing 4:37 - Christian Has Mentioned p0rn 4 times Already… 12:56 - STORY: I Saw Death 17:16 - Computer Glitched Like Crazy.. 20:00 - Time 21:00 - God 22:45 - Hillary Clinton 23:58 - Roswell 28:00 - Found Our Way Back.. 28:02 - STORY: The Floating Doll 34:05 - God, again 37:14 - Wes Huff / Joe Rogan 39:44 - Obama 43:15 - STORY: Divine Security 53:32 - Christian Doesn't Understand This Entire Podcast has Been "Debate"… TFD: After Dark is where The Freaky Deaky shows its teeth. This series trades casual retellings for carefully crafted, third-person narratives. True stories rewritten with the pacing, tension, and atmosphere of classic horror fiction. Think less “read off a screen,” more slow-burn dread, where every detail matters and silence is used as a weapon. Each episode unfolds over an immersive, original soundtrack that carries across the series, pulling listeners deeper into the story until it feels less like a podcast and more like being trapped inside someone else’s memory. Uncensored and unapologetically intense, After Dark also explores true accounts that are too disturbing, too adult, or too psychologically heavy for the main feed. These are stories about obsession, fear, violence, grief, and the moments people don’t talk about in polite company. It’s refined, deliberate, and meant to be experienced late at night, alone, with the lights low and your guard down. Listener discretion is advised. This is NOT a show for little ones.

    In episode 1, we sit down and go over a few curious tales surrounding gnomes and duendes, to the uncomfortable yet oddly enchanting musical stylings of mariachi. Enjoy. (Heads Up: We recorded 3 episodes of TFD: The Musical last year before deciding that we wanted to change the entire format of the show itself to something that flows better.

More info on the revamped show will be coming soon.)

    Nightmare Fuel to Make You Feel Alive For Once In Your Life, You Monster (BGH #3)

    Folks, welcome back into another episode of The Butterscotch Gang Hang. Today we're treating those sweet sweet ear holes to the auditory stylings of pure unadulterated nightmare fuel, vis a vis some creepy stories. We also venture off into tangents unknown dissecting the origins of everyones mispronunciation of the word "Orangutan", as well as Christian mounting a full scale attack on people that wear sweatpants in public, somehow forgetting that his co-host and son-in-law of over 5 years exclusively wears sweat pants (or joggers if we're being honest) out in public. It's fine. We also touch on the N word, because why not?

    274 | The Majestic Wolfman: Freaky Listener Stories 13

    -// YouTube Memberships are live! Exclusive Monthly Shows, Early Access to Episodes, Extended Episodes & More. Available on YouTube, Spotify and Apple Podcasts //-We're back with another episode filled with true stories from YOU! Out in the middle of nowhere, strange things don’t announce themselves. They just show up. Something moves faster than it should. Something watches without making a sound. You hear footsteps, breathing, voices, then realize there’s no one there. These stories take place in fields, forests, farms, dorm rooms, and deserts where the dark feels heavier than it should, and whatever’s out there seems aware of the people watching it.There are no clean explanations here. Just moments that stick with the people who lived them. Creatures that don’t fit any category, lights with no source, shadows that stop at the edge of the room, and encounters that feel less like attacks and more like warnings. Call it Bigfoot, Dogman, ghosts, sleep paralysis demons, government tech, or something else entirely. All anyone knows for sure is this: something showed up… and it wasn’t supposed to be there.Thanks to the listeners that submitted their stories for today's episode!

    After Dark | My Grandma, The Devil (003)

    Welcome back fellow freaks and deaks, this month's TFD: After Dark centers on family, not as comfort, but as conduit. That's right, we're talkin' grannies. A Christmas gathering turns horrifying when a grandmother’s long-whispered occult practices surface in a violent, inhuman transformation that leaves one child protected by something unseen. Another story follows a funeral drive interrupted by three deliberate knocks from nowhere at all, forcing a grieving family to question whether death truly ended a lifetime of control. These encounters don’t rush toward terror; they let it emerge slowly, wearing familiar faces. The episode closes with darker humor and quiet mercy from beyond the grave. A grandmother’s disapproval manifests through locked doors and impossible timing, delivering a posthumous ultimatum that finally changes a life. And in a house believed to function as a spiritual crossroads, a small, inexplicable act—an object returned against all logic—suggests that not every presence means harm. Together, these true accounts explore inherited darkness, lingering authority, and the uneasy idea that family doesn’t always let go… even when it should.
