The Ghost Story Guys

This week we open the book to the mundane, the inexplicable, and the harrowing, but even in the darkest places, we're reminded that we're never alone. Content warning on this one, the third story comes from a survivor of spousal abuse and deals with that particular time in their life, so if that's something you struggle with, consider stopping after story #2.

Ghost Story Guys patrons have access to more than 40 episodes of "Book of the Dead." Find out more at Patreon.com/GhostStoryGuys

A midnight religious service turns into something much darker for one Los Angeles-based listener, and that's just one of the fantastic listener stories on this episode. Other stories take us to a mysterious frog-strewn road in Wisconsin and the deserts of Afghanistan, inspire conversations about cryptids like the Enfield Horror and a deep dive into the best of Hammer horror. The guys are together again after a month and it's good to be back

Our sixth season begins with Paul's triumphant return to the microphone after beating Covid and a special episode format! To celebrate the new year (and Paul being back), the guys explore the story of one family's fight to stay sane in their new, haunted house. In a series of events dating from the early 1980s to the 1990s, the family is subjected to sleep suffocation, orbs, shadow creatures, and a whole lot more.

This story is loosely based on "Grave's End: A True Ghost Story", by Elaine Mercado, published in 2001 by Llewellyn Worldwide. Now out of print, used copies can be found via Amazon and ABE Books.

It's time for a trio of listener stories, beginning with the comfort of a lifelong spirit guardian, and ending with a sighting in the cold night which suggests there are far worse things out there in the dark than we ever anticipated.

Also on this episode: better living through chemistry, the Sheffield Night Hoser, and a brand new T-shirt design has landed.

On this show we generally are of the opinion that demons don't exist, but for the creature spotted by one of our listeners, it's an uncomfortably apt description. Also on this episode - shadow men climbing out of your closet and across the ceiling, a trip to New Orleans, and, as promised, Those Who Watch You Sleep.
