  • 37 | Finding a Door That Shouldn’t Exist: Real Horror Stories
    Nov 10 2025

    TL:DR - Real Horror Stories featuring a tenant in Japan that found a door that shouldn't exist, and a resident living in a shady part of town receives phantom knocks at the door every day at 3:15 am. There are places in your home you never expect to feel fear — Most nights, those spaces mean nothing. But on rare occasions, they become stage and spotlight for something… watching. Something waiting for you to notice.Tonight, we pull back the veil on stories that unfold within the so-called safety of our own walls — tales of things that knock when no one is there, or hide behind locked doors that were never supposed to open. Whatever you believe about ghosts or the unexplained, these stories will leave you checking the locks twice… and maybe leaving a light on in the hallway.STORY TIME STAMPS:3:52 - STORY 1: The Vanishing Knocker 15:41 - STORY 2: The Locked Door Incident

  • 36 | Haunted Dolls You Shouldn't Mess With...'Allegedly'
    Oct 6 2025

    Welcome back to Sleep With The Lights On! To kick off the new season of SWTLO with Haunted Dolls You Should FEAR! We're back, and better than ever (except for the camera focusing malfunction that isn't fixed until Vol. 39. Sorry bout that.)There’s something about a child’s toy — the glassy stare of a doll, the eternal grin of a puppet, the way they always seem to be watching even when no one’s around. We tell ourselves it’s just the design. Just cheap plastic molded into something cheerful. But sometimes... the smile doesn’t feel so friendly. Sometimes a toy isn’t just a toy. And sometimes... your child’s imaginary friend isn’t imaginary at all.Tonight, we step into rooms that haven't changed in decades. Rooms with toys still resting where they were last played with. We’ll open the lid on old toy boxes that were never meant to be opened. And if you hear whispering in the shadows when the story ends — don’t worry. It’s probably just your imagination. Probably.We'll see you on the inside…STORY TIME STAMPS:3:27 - STORY 1: Charlie On The Shelf15:10 - STORY 2: Letta Me Out: Letta The Haunted Doll

  • 35 | Glitch In The Matrix: Time Slips & Head Scratchers
    Jun 23 2025

    There are moments in time, caught in the eerie silence of a farmhouse, the hum of a subway, or the innocence of a childhood game, where the fabric of our world seems to warp, bending into shapes we cannot fathom.What lurks in these shadows, these brief, unsettling breaches where time and space conspire to confuse and bewilder? It's as if the very essence of our existence whispers secrets, only to snatch them back into the ether, leaving us with nothing but the chilling echo of something... other.------TIME STAMPS:3:04 - STORY 1: Stone Tape Glitch 8:13 - STORY 2: The Subway Glitch13:41 - STORY 3: Hide and Never Seek------
