Ready to pucker up from sheer creepiness? Ditch the cheery summer playlists and crank your earbuds—these tales will haunt your dreams. From phantom hands blocking elevator doors to severed pianist fingers humping keys in a jar, we’ve rounded up the nastiest, most head-scratching Korean urban legends your average tourist guide sniffs at. Think you can handle a blood-red diary dictating murder, dual assassins in black and white, or a grandmother’s angry spirit restless over an empty grave? Spoiler: you can’t. Tune in, but don’t say we didn’t warn you when you’re sleeping with the lights on tonight. 

Starting at just $5/month, you can get a lot of extra content, including the following:

• Early episodes

• Behind-the-scenes pre-ambles
