About this listen

What started as late-night conversations about haunted places, unsolved mysteries, and eerie folklore turned into a podcast where we dive headfirst into the weirdest corners of the world—and the human mind

Each week, we bring our curiosity (and a healthy dose of skepticism) to stories that chill, fascinate, and sometimes disturb . From ghost towns to conspiracy theories, true crime to urban legends, we explore it all with open minds and a touch of dark humour

Whether you’re a believer, a sceptic, or just here for the stories, you’re welcome around our fire.
