December 22, 2025 The Tree: A Christmas Ghost Story
When I came up with the idea for "The Tree: A Christmas Ghost Story", I had no idea where I wanted it to go. But once I sat down to work on it, it magically seemed to write itself. After I finished recorded it, I realized that I had created something special -- a totally unique ghost story, maybe even a Christmas classic! So sit back, pour yourself a glass of eggnog, dim the lights, and prepare to be highly entertained. And to all of my listeners, my sincere wishes for a very Merry Christmas, and a joyous holiday season!

November 14, 2025 Creepy Kids
In this episode, I present three true paranormal stories about creepy kids. The kids themselves aren’t really creepy – it’s the situations they find themselves in that are. Two of the stories are really strange, and one is downright terrifying. But in all of these cases, we’re left wondering if the stories these kids told were true – perhaps because we as adults hope and pray ... that they aren’t.

Edgar Allan Poe's 'The Tell-Tale Heart' is considered one of the most terrifying gothic horror stories ever written -- a tale of murder, madness, and obsession.

So, turn off your lights, sit back, and prepare to be scared as I read the original, unedited, truly terrifying horror masterpiece, 'The Tell-Heart'.

September 21, 2025 The Conjuring 4: Last Rites - The Terrifying TRUE Story of the Smurl Family's Demonic Haunting
The newest film in the Conjuring franchise, 'The Conjuring: Last Rites', is loosely based on a paranormal investigation conducted by famed ghost hunters Ed and Lorraine Warren in 1986 - but the TRUE story is far more terrifying than the movie. The Smurls weren't experiencing a haunting in their home, they were the victims of a series of relentless demonic attacks. As you'll hear, these devilish assaults were truly horrific, and the rite of Exorcism had to be performed three times by Catholic priests. Join me as I share the truly frightening details of the Smurl family's battle against the worst demonic case the Warrens had ever investigated.
