About this listen

In Almost True, we explore the mysterious space between fact and fiction — where truth blurs into rumor, and rumor becomes legend. Each episode dives into a story that's 50% real, 50% speculation — historical anecdotes, eerie coincidences, unexplained events, or strange urban myths that make listeners wonder: "Did that really happen?" With a tone that's mysterious yet grounded, every story invites the audience to question what they know, think critically, and enjoy the thrill of uncertainty.2025 Social Sciences World

Born from tragedy, the ritual has continued for over a century, with villagers believing it prevents further disaster. Whether collective trauma, superstition, or something more mysterious, the annual dance remains an eerie example of how the past refuses to stay buried.

Conflicting records, repeated details, and a haunting photograph raise unsettling questions about fate, repetition, and whether some lives escape death more than once.

  • The Lady Who Walked Through Time
    Jan 17 2026

    Episode 12 explores the mystery of a woman known only as "Elena," who appears in photographs and eyewitness accounts spanning more than a century without aging. Seen across different cities, eras, and historical events, she seems untouched by time and subtly out of place in every moment. Whether coincidence, illusion, or evidence of something far stranger, her repeated appearances raise a haunting question: what if some people don't move through time — but simply walk across it?
