Some encounters don’t announce themselves with screams or shadows. They arrive quietly—in the shape of a woman standing in a doorway, footsteps with no one to make them, or a figure from another century passing by as if nothing is wrong. These are the kinds of moments that linger long after the lights are back on, when you’re left wondering whether what you saw was impossible… or simply unnoticed until now.

In this episode, multiple firsthand accounts blur the line between history and the present, sleep and waking, the living and the dead. These stories don’t beg to be believed, and they don’t try to explain themselves. They just exist—unchanged, unresolved, and unsettling in the way only true experiences can be. Watch with the lights on.

We'll see you on the inside...

This week we're taking a look into the darker side of Ayahuasca in our first installment of Bad Trips—where visions turn violent, entities hijack the mind, and hours stretch into eternity. In this episode, we explore real experiences that went far beyond “spiritual healing”: encounters with predatory spirits, looping insanity, shapeshifting shamans, and the terrifying aftermath that left people questioning their sanity, their safety, and their place in the world. These aren’t your typical retreat stories. These are the ones nobody wants to talk about.

From clown phobia turned hellscape to Tetris-brain thought loops, Tim Burton creatures crawling from the void, and a chilling cultural warning about who Ayahuasca may truly be meant for—these firsthand accounts paint a picture of a medicine that can heal… or completely unravel you. If you're fascinated by psychedelic horror, spiritual misfires, and mind-bending supernatural encounters, this episode pulls back the curtain on the shadow realm of Ayahuasca.

We'll see you on the inside..

Nobody believes me, but I know what I saw. That's the theme of today's episode, where our storytellers share experiences that they cannot explain, making for some truly strange and mysterious listening.

Folks welcome back to yet another TFD episode. This week's episode dives deep into some fascinating short form true paranormal encounters, glitch-in-the-matrix moments, and unexplainable brushes with the supernatural that will leave you questioning everything you think you know about the other side.

From a grieving family experiencing a full-body ghostly apparition, to a teen who hears a blood-curdling scream while home alone, to a hiker guided through the wilderness by what can only be described as a spirit bear intervention, these stories come straight from real people who swear what they witnessed was no hallucination.

That being said, this episode is ALSO quite heavy on the tangents, as we explore the wildly gay side of Stranger Things, two very different Repo Man movies, and Christian's unabashedly feminist beliefs. If you're someone that gets antsy with anything other than story telling, please remember that your delicate, lil keyboard warrior self can find stories directly in the Time Stamps. Isn't that amazing?

Settle in.Lights low.Volume up.We'll see you on the inside…

Children Keep Seeing The Same Shadow Man… Why does the Hat Man show up for so many people? Is he just a fashionable shadow person? A warning? A death omen? A crossroads guardian? Or nothing more than a trick of the mind?
Tonight on The Freaky Deaky, we dive into one of the most chilling phenomena in paranormal history: The Hat Man. Across the world, people from completely different backgrounds describe the exact same shadow figure — tall, faceless, and always wearing a distinctive old-fashioned hat. He appears in doorways, gardens, kitchens, cemeteries… and sometimes, your bedroom (noice.)
Join us as we break down the stories, discuss theories, and explore one of the most widespread and disturbing shared paranormal experiences ever recorded.

When winter settles in and the world grows quiet, strange things start to stir. In this year’s TFD Christmas Special, we’re sharing true ghost stories and creepy encounters to haunt your holiday and prove they aren’t always filled with Christmas cheer. You’ll hear about a haunted apartment in Ohio where a ghost learned to coexist with its tenants, a chilling brush with the so-called Death Angel (or Mothman as Christian calls it), and heartfelt tales of spirits who return when the season feels loneliest.
Sharing ghost stories is the annual Christmas tradition round these parts—where fireside storytelling meets the unexplained, and endless tangents. Perfect for fans of true paranormal experiences, christmas ghost stories, and eerie holiday tales that linger long after the lights go out. So pour some nog, dim the lights, and settle in for a Christmas podcast that’s equal parts strange, tragic, wonder and whimsey (okay maybe not whimsey, but it's a good time either way). Merry Christmas from The Freaky Deaky—where even the ghosts come home for the holidays. 👻🎅
Thanks for all your support and laughs over the years. We hope you all have a wonderful Christmas, and Happy New Year.

If you’ve ever woken up in the middle of the night and felt like something was standing there watching you, you’re not alone. Across the world, people are quietly sharing stories of shadowy figures at the foot of their beds, strange apparitions crawling across ceilings, and encounters that waltz across the line between nightmares and waking life. 

Tonight, we’re diving into real shadow people encounters—true stories of unexplained figures, sleep paralysis visitors, and paranormal experiences at night that have left people shaken long after the lights come back on. Some of these tales come from childhood bedrooms, others from drug-induced altered states, and some from ordinary homes where the unexplainable simply walked in uninvited.

There are places where the veil feels thinner—where laughter echoes in empty forests, where shadows on the roadside burn brighter than the night around them, and where voices call your name though no one is there. Some of our listeners have stood in those places, and tonight, they share what they found waiting.
From strange lights and woodland whispers, to blacker-than-black beasts and the hag who leans close enough to breathe your fear, these are the kinds of encounters you don’t just remember—you carry them with you.
Volume 12 of our Listener Stories dives deep into the unexplained, the terrifying, and the beautifully bizarre. Settle in, turn down the lights, and join us as we explore true experiences from those who’ve brushed against the other side.
Huge shoutout to every one that shared their story for Volume 12!

It's that time again, folks. Coming in hot with more Halloween Horror Stories of the Creepy, Crawly and Cursed variety. Welcome to the 6th Annual Freaky Deaky: Halloween Spooktacular! This year’s theme is Creepy Crawlers, Haunted Homes, and Workplace Hauntings — a triple dose of the supernatural to keep you up at night. 🎃👻
Tonight’s chilling lineup includes:
🕷 Creepy Crawlers – From a biker’s late-night encounter with a pale, bone-thin cryptid stalking him through the woods, to a Kansas woman’s terrifying brush with a crawler lurking in a quiet park, these stories dive into the horrifying world of humanoid creatures that shouldn’t exist.
🏚 Haunted Homes – Step inside true haunted house tales: the Upside Down Man seen by multiple witnesses hanging from ceilings like some nightmare from the void, and a chilling post-funeral encounter where a grieving grandchild sees their grandparents return… but not as they once were.
💀 Workplace Hauntings – Even your job isn’t safe. Meet Frank the Barfly, a ghost who still makes his presence known in his favorite bar, and the phantom security guard who came back from beyond the grave to stop a break-in.
From cryptids in the forest to spirits that refuse to leave the places they loved, this Spooktacular is packed with stories that blur the line between the living and the dead.
🔥 If you love true scary stories, cryptid encounters, haunted house legends, paranormal mysteries and two grown men dressed up like a couple of weirdos be sure to follow and click the "More Like This" tab if you're listening on Spotify to check out our 2 other videos shows, Sleep With The Lights On and Frightline! Not on Spotify? Both are available on our YouTube channel as well @freakydeakypod
