About this listen

What if the past refuses to stay quiet, the phone won’t stop ringing, and something with yellow eyes waits at the end of your street? We dive into three chilling, first-person accounts that test our nerves and our logic: antique clocks that roar to life in unison despite being unwound, a possible call from beyond a grandmother’s grave, and a relentless, burnt-faced figure that seems to feed on a household’s pain. We open up about our show’s changing direction, why the fun of fear matters, and how to keep curiosity sharp without falling for every shadow.

The clock story hits like a timebomb—mechanical relics suddenly synchronized at night. Is it temperature, vibration, or a house becoming an instrument? We unpack the mechanics and the meaning, because the scariest part isn’t just the noise—it’s history waking itself. From there we tackle grief and technology with a question that splits the room: if your loved one calls from a number that shouldn’t exist, do you answer or call back? Between carrier glitches and genuine anomalies, we talk through how to evaluate what you hear without dismissing the comfort, terror, and intimacy in that moment.

Then we face the burnt-faced man, a yellow-eyed presence that appears to grow stronger amid abuse and conflict, only to recede when healing begins. Whether you see an attachment feeding on negativity or a mind under siege from trauma and sleep disruption, the pattern matters. We trace the timeline, compare folklore with psychology, and share practical ways to investigate responsibly: document conditions, invite multiple witnesses, and treat storytellers with respect. Along the way, we trade notes on local legends like Pittsburgh’s Green Man and tease our next steps in the field, including plans around Haunted Hillview Manor and guiding safe, thoughtful investigations.
