Welcome to Tales from the Janitor — a spine-chilling plunge into America’s most unsettling urban legends, long-buried folklore, and shadow-drenched mysteries… all told through the mop-wielding perspective of your eerie (and oddly well-informed) custodial guide.

In this episode, we head into the haunted heart of New York — where the ghosts don’t sleep, the alleyways whisper secrets, and the pigeons… well, they might not be pigeons.

Every story is delivered with atmosphere, dread, and just enough dry humor to keep you nervously laughing in the dark. Whether you crave real ghost stories, bone-deep folklore, or eerie encounters with the unknown, Tales from the Janitor offers a uniquely chilling perspective from behind the mop bucket.

🎧 Why Listen? • Terrifying tales pulled from local history and whispered myths • A darkly humorous first-person journey with our cryptic janitor • Designed for fans of paranormal podcasts, immersive horror, and cursed urban tales

Each episode is free, but keeping the lights flickering and the ghouls growling takes time and support. If you like what you hear, consider: ⭐ Leaving a review 📤 Sharing with fellow horror fiends ☕ Donating a cup of ghost-repelling coffee

Thanks for tuning in… and whatever you do, don’t open the service closet behind the ice machine.

Disclaimer: The following audio drama contains loud noises, suspicious hot dog carts, haunted subway announcements, and one very talkative ghost in a Yankees cap. "Tales from the Janitor: New York Edition" is based on real-ish urban legends found buried beneath layers of pizza grease and bad attitude.

Remember: if a stranger in Central Park offers you a mysterious map, say “no thanks”... or say “yes,” but don't blame us when your phone loses signal and your socks go missing.

Proceed with caution, curiosity, and a MetroCard that probably won’t help

🪦 DISCLAIMER: LISTENERS BEWARE… AND BRING A MOP (AND MAYBE A BAGEL) 🪦

Welcome to Tales from the Janitor, the only show where New Jersey’s creepiest secrets finally get cleaned up—after everyone’s done screaming.

This episode takes us deep into the Garden State, where the tomatoes are juicy, the drivers are terrifying, and the Pine Barrens are home to a winged goat creature with anger issues. If your GPS reroutes you to Clinton Road, just pretend you don’t see the ghost kid throwing coins. He hates eye contact.

We’re talking urban legends, haunted highways, cursed diners, and things you probably shouldn’t touch without gloves. Paranormal? Definitely. Sanitary? Not even close.

Side effects may include: Nervous laughter, irrational fear of toll booths, and yelling “YO, WHO’S THERE?” into the void.

So grab a mop, salt your pork roll (not your doorstep), and pray you make it to Wawa before the hauntings kick in. 🕯️👁️

🪦 DISCLAIMER: LISTENERS BEWARE… AND BRING A MOP 🪦

Welcome to "Tales from the Janitor", the only show where history’s darkest secrets get swept under the rug—until now.

This episode takes place in New Hampshire, home to quaint towns, scenic forests, and things in the woods that definitely aren't wildlife. If you hear whispers in the trees, it's probably the wind. If something knocks on your door at 3 AM… well, that’s between you and whatever lives in your attic.

This audio drama contains chilling urban legends, historical oddities, and unsettling events that may cause involuntary shivering, suspicious glances at janitors, and an overwhelming urge to salt your doorstep.

If at any point your lights flicker, or your reflection smiles when you don’t… that's not part of the show.

You’ve been warned. Now, grab a mop—because some messes don’t stay buried. 🕯️👁️

Disclaimer

The following audio drama takes place in the eerie, sun-scorched deserts of Nevada, where the only thing more unsettling than the tumbleweeds are the things that might be lurking behind them. While we can’t guarantee you’ll encounter a ghost, alien, or cryptid (though the odds are high), we do strongly advise you keep your wits about you, especially if you’re traveling with a vehicle that has questionable air conditioning or a tendency to overheat. And remember, no matter how convincing the voices in your headphones may sound, it’s probably not the local crypt keeper trying to offer you a ride. Or is it? Enjoy the ride and don’t forget to lock the doors. Just in case. While we strive to deliver thrills and chills, please note that any resemblance to actual events, real people, or terrifying desert dwellers is purely coincidental, though if you happen to see something lurking in the distance, we highly recommend you don’t investigate further.

This audio drama may cause increased heart rates, nervous glances over your shoulder, and an irrational desire to sleep with the lights on. We are not responsible for any spontaneous urges to visit a creepy ghost town, attempt to summon desert spirits, or start Googling "Nevada paranormal hotspots."

Lastly, if you hear someone knocking at your door, it’s probably just a neighbor... or maybe it’s not. Either way, don’t say we didn’t warn you. Proceed with caution and enjoy the show!

Disclaimer: Attention, listeners!

Before you dive headfirst into the strange and mysterious world of Tales from the Janitor, we feel it’s our duty to warn you: you may encounter a few things that are... well, a little unusual.

This audio drama is a work of fiction, just like your friend’s wild “I totally saw Bigfoot” stories, but without the questionable Snapchat pictures. All characters, events, and locations are purely fictional. If you think you've heard these legends before... it’s probably because you’ve stayed up way too late watching spooky YouTube videos.

This show is meant to entertain, not to keep you up at night staring at the shadows in your closet (though, let’s be honest, that’s between you and your imagination). While the stories we tell come from the urban legends of Nebraska, we cannot promise that any of them are “real” or that the ghosts will offer you a cup of coffee during their haunting.

Also, Tales from the Janitor contains supernatural happenings, creepy noises, and, occasionally, a talking raccoon that might not be as friendly as it seems. We recommend listening with a sense of humor—and maybe a light on if you’re the jumpy type.

By continuing, you acknowledge that you’re entering a world where the strange is the norm, and the normal... well, it’s just not around here. Enjoy the ride and remember nothing you hear is likely to follow you home. Probably.
