When winter settles in and the world grows quiet, strange things start to stir. In this year’s TFD Christmas Special, we’re sharing true ghost stories and creepy encounters to haunt your holiday and prove they aren’t always filled with Christmas cheer. You’ll hear about a haunted apartment in Ohio where a ghost learned to coexist with its tenants, a chilling brush with the so-called Death Angel (or Mothman as Christian calls it), and heartfelt tales of spirits who return when the season feels loneliest.Sharing ghost stories is the annual Christmas tradition round these parts—where fireside storytelling meets the unexplained, and endless tangents. Perfect for fans of true paranormal experiences, christmas ghost stories, and eerie holiday tales that linger long after the lights go out. So pour some nog, dim the lights, and settle in for a Christmas podcast that’s equal parts strange, tragic, wonder and whimsey (okay maybe not whimsey, but it's a good time either way). Merry Christmas from The Freaky Deaky—where even the ghosts come home for the holidays. 👻🎅Thanks for all your support and laughs over the years. We hope you all have a wonderful Christmas, and Happy New Year. ------TIME STAMPS:0:00 - Coming Up: Christmas Ghost Stories!2:36 - Don't Call Christian an Atheist3:00 - Festivus: The Airing of Grievances7:55 - Christian Is Upset There's No Eggnog8:30 - ((STORIES BEGIN HERE, YOU IMPATIENT ANIMAL))8:31 - STORY: The Hot & Cold (Katy Perry) Ghost16:10 - James Wan: True Haunting Series on Netflix18:20 - Paranormal Shows and Docs Have The Worst Names19:20 - STORY: The Death Angel29:07 - No Shade, Arkansas, Sorry30:10 - BUTTERSCOTCH GANG CHRISTMAS INTERMISSION31:00 - Christian's Stuck on Mothman (Mothmen, too) For Some Reason33:17 - STORY: The Wholesome Husband36:00 - An Interesting Visual37:15 - Christian's Dumpster Fire Stories Note37:20 - STORY: The Premonition Dream39:55 - Indrid Cold & Richard Gere's Butt Gerbil40:30 - I Guess Christian Canceled Marilyn Manson42:11 - The Passion Of The Christ Now, I Guess?43:50 - Saw Eggnog in July, Didn't Get It (For Shame Reasons)45: 30 - STORY: It's a Ghost Baby, Baby47:30 - Trailer Talk49:15 - STORY: The Cartoon Rabbit Ghost53:25 - Christian Bores Us With A Boring Facts of Life Anecdote???55:04 - Christian Admits Ghosts Are Real (Thank You, Vesna)56:41 - Merry Christmas, Butterscotch Gang ____________________________________________+PRODUCERS: Eric Long, Daniel Heng, Anthony M, Marlene Olmos +BECOME A PRODUCER: http://bit.ly/3WZ3xTg+BUY A $9 SHOUT-OUT: https://holler.baby/thefreakydeakyThe Twilight Zone meets Mystery Science Theatre 3000 meets an uncomfortable Thanksgiving dinner conversation with your in-laws.

If you’ve ever woken up in the middle of the night and felt like something was standing there watching you, you’re not alone. Across the world, people are quietly sharing stories of shadowy figures at the foot of their beds, strange apparitions crawling across ceilings, and encounters that waltz across the line between nightmares and waking life.  Tonight, we’re diving into real shadow people encounters—true stories of unexplained figures, sleep paralysis visitors, and paranormal experiences at night that have left people shaken long after the lights come back on. Some of these tales come from childhood bedrooms, others from drug-induced altered states, and some from ordinary homes where the unexplainable simply walked in uninvited.-----TIME STAMPS:0:00 - Coming Up: Shadow People!1:04 - Intro2:01 - Thirst Quenched Via The Power of HALFDAY2:57 - Been A Sad Couple of Weeks5:28 - Fresh FRIGHTLINE Merch6:34 - STORY: Shadow At The End of the Bunkbeds12:28 - End of the Open Mind Era 15:20 - Christian's Never Seen The Santa Claus? 16:45 - Invoking Creed 18:34 - Returning to the Story…21:43 - STORY: The Lizard Shadow 26:30 - Trolls Scare Christian 28:00 - Shoutout Morgan Lauren 29:30 - Sweet Dreams / Easter Eggs 30:00 - Busch Gardens Sheikra Roller Coaster 31:00 - STORY: Cold Hum of the TV 38:53 - Baby Hitler 40:00 - Why Demons Don't Go After Christian 46:05 - PTSD Mom Texts 46:30 - Pick Your Own Adventure 48:00 - STORY: Shadow People and M*th / Shoutout shadowpeople.org53:30 - Can We Pierce The Veil While Under The Influence?57:06 - Outro  ____________________________________________+PRODUCERS: Eric Long, Daniel Heng, Anthony M, Marlene Olmos +BECOME A PRODUCER: http://bit.ly/3WZ3xTg+BUY A $9 SHOUT-OUT: https://holler.baby/thefreakydeakyThe Twilight Zone meets Mystery Science Theatre 3000 meets an uncomfortable Thanksgiving dinner conversation with your in-laws.

Every story brings a different angle on the fear that creeps in at night, and by the end you might think twice before turning off the lights.Be sure to stay til the end for a very important, and albeit quite sad, announcement regarding the future of the show.

Some connections defy explanation—especially the ones we share with animals. In this episode, we explore a series of true stories where pets seemed to know things they couldn’t possibly know: showing up at the exact right moment, reacting to events before they happened, and even a horse that can tell the future. These aren’t just quirky coincidences—some of them are hard to shake.From dogs that grieve before the news arrives to cats that sense illness or danger without warning, the stories we’ve gathered challenge what we think we know about animal instincts. Whether it's something ancient, emotional, or something else entirely, these moments hint at a deeper intelligence we’ve only just begun to understand.

What really happens on the night shift, when the world goes quiet and you're the only one left awake? In this episode, real people share unsettling experiences from hospitals, nursing homes, event centers, and even the Alamo—where things don’t always stay where they’re supposed to. You’ll hear about voices with no bodies, figures that vanish into walls, and strange happenings that make seasoned workers question what they’ve seen.These are firsthand accounts—told plainly and without drama—from people who weren’t looking for anything paranormal, but found it anyway. Whether it’s a call light going off in an empty recovery room or someone climbing into bed when no one else is home, every story is grounded, believable, and just unnerving enough to stay with you long after it ends.We'll see you on the inside... ------TIME STAMPS:0:00 - Oopsie No Monologue1:23 - Theme Music2:43 - Welcome Back / Nightshift Horror Stories 4:03 - Shoutout Harris of Calm History & Marcus!

There’s something undeniably strange about secondhand things—an energy that clings, whispers that trail behind lace curtains, and cold spots that aren’t tied to faulty vents. You think you’re getting a good deal: a vintage photo, an antique shawl, a porcelain cat. But what if those items come with something… more? A shadow that moves without light. A face that shows up in photos you didn’t take. A voice that only speaks when you’re alone. Thrift stores, estate sales, garage finds—these are the forgotten graveyards of energy. You don’t just buy objects here… you inherit stories. And sometimes, you bring those stories home. From haunted textiles to time-warping heirlooms, tonight we’re opening the box on real-life tales of cursed items, chilling attachments, and ghostly encounters born from the shelves of your local Goodwill.

Some things don’t want to be seen… but they still show up. In a flicker of motion at the edge of a stairwell. In the sound of knuckles tapping from inside the walls. In a face that looks familiar—until it doesn’t.You tell yourself it’s nothing. A draft. A dream. Old wiring. But what if it isn’t? What if that shadow you all saw wasn’t a trick of the light? What if the alarm that won’t stop isn’t broken—but trying to warn you?Tonight, the stories are quiet, but they don’t stay that way. They reach. They follow. They watch.

There’s something timelessly unsettling about a painted smile. Clowns, once symbols of laughter and childlike wonder, have taken on a much darker reputation in recent decades. Behind the greasepaint and oversized shoes, we find something far more sinister—a twisted mockery of joy that has wormed its way into our collective nightmares.From dark carnival tents to desolate country roads, the image of the killer clown has become a modern myth stitched from real terror, folklore, and the unexplained. In this episode, we’re peeling back the colorful mask to expose the shadows beneath. These are stories not just of murder and madness, but of fear itself—where comedy curdles into cruelty, and facepaint hides something monstrous.So lock your doors, dim the lights, and prepare yourself.

They say curiosity killed the cat—but what about the curious who tempt the unknown with whispers in dark hallways, or solitary games played at midnight?In this episode, we’re diving headfirst into the chilling world of paranormal rituals—those spooky internet dares and whispered playground legends that promise access to hidden knowledge, other dimensions, or ghostly encounters. These aren’t just campfire stories—they’re based on *real* accounts, with *real* consequences. Or are they? From the Midnight Game to the unsettling Three Kings Ritual, we’re peeling back the layers to uncover what really happens when you push beyond the veil.We’ll hear from those who dared to try these odd rituals, explore the origins of these bizarre games, and examine the patterns that link them all. What drives people to play these dangerous rituals? And what does it mean when the line between belief and reality begins to melt away? Tonight, we invite you to light a candle, turn off the lights, and join us… but fair warning: not everything that answers back is friendly.

*Folks, this IS a Tangent Heavy episode. So if you're someone vehemently against taking the scenic route, you will almost certainly not enjoy this episode (or 90% of this show if we're being honest). Toodles.*There’s something about urban legends that sticks to the skin. You hear them once—around a campfire, at a sleepover, whispered down a darkened hallway—and they never quite leave you. They're the stories we half-believe, even when we swear we don’t. The ones we dare each other to test, knowing deep down that something might be listening.This week, we’re pulling back the curtain on some of the most infamous legends that have haunted us for generations. But these aren’t just stories told to scare. Behind each one lies a sliver of truth—a real event, a real person, a real moment in time when the ordinary world cracked open and let something else in.From a killer lurking in lovers' lanes with a hook for a hand, to a man in a rabbit suit wielding an axe in the woods of Virginia… from ghostly girls who vanish from car seats to the blood-soaked face you might just see staring back from your mirror—these tales didn’t come from nowhere. And tonight, we're digging up the roots.So sit back, Settle in, And remember—every legend starts with someone, somewhere, who swears… it really happened.We'll see you on the inside…-----TIME STAMPS:0:00 - The True Stories Behind Urban Legends1:03 - Intro2:23 - Let's Talk Urban Legends 2:46 - Support The Show, Share & Socials4:56 - Did You Have a Local Urban Legend?

This week, we’re talking the Versailles Incident in France, Liverpool’s Bold Street glitches, the Kersey Village mystery, and a vanishing hotel in Montélimar. These aren’t tall tales—they’re backed by witnesses, investigators, and evidence so weird it’ll make you wonder if time’s just a shaky house of cards waiting to collapse.  Two women strolling Versailles in 1901, suddenly surrounded by 18th-century nobles in powdered wigs. A cop in 1996 Liverpool dodging 1950s vans on a street gone retro. Three kids in 1957 stumbling into a medieval village that shouldn’t exist, and a hotel vanishing—photos and all—after a night’s stay in ’79 France. We’ve got firsthand accounts from stunned teachers, cabbies, and cadets—people who didn’t sign up for this—plus locals and researchers trying to piece it together, all asking: what the hell just happened? I’ve got questions for you too, because I want your take on this madness—is time bending, breaking, or just messing with us? Whether you’re a believer ready to chase these glitches or a skeptic daring the universe to prove it, you’re in the right place.

Hey folks, before we dive into episode 250 (250!?), please read the title of the episode. With that information fresh in your mind, you need to decide if this is a topic that will trigger you or send you into a blind rage in the comments. If the answer is 'yes', then maybe sit this one out. If the answer is 'no', then enjoy the episode. You’re sitting alone, and suddenly a voice cuts through the silence. It knows your deepest fears, your hidden shame, and it won’t shut up. It’s not a friend, not your conscience—it’s something else, taunting you, day after day. For millions of people with schizophrenia, this isn’t a thought experiment—it’s their reality. But here’s the kicker: what if those voices aren’t just a glitch in the brain? What if they’re something… more?Thanks for 250 weeks of weird. We'll see you on the inside..-----TIME STAMPS:0:00 - Schizophrenia & The Supernatural0:36 - THEME MUSIC1:55 - You know right now if you'll like this episode or not, y'know?2:23 - TRIGGER WARNING: SPOOKY WORDS & FEELINGS INSIDE!3:39 - Overstimulated 6:23 - What Is Schizophrenia? 6:33 - Christian's a Lil Nervous 7:23 - Wilson Van Dusen & Jerry Marzinsky  8:33 - Emanuel Swedenborg Paved The Way9:33 - Lower-Order Spirits, Correspondences & The Battlefield For Your Mind10:53 - Marzinsky: Psychotherapist NOT Psycho Therapist 11:33 - An Amazing Journey Into the Psychotic Mind 12:23 - Spiritual Parasites That Feed Off Pain14:23 - Voices That Thrive on Fear 14:53 - Sherry Swiney's "That's A Lie" Method16:23 - Invaders, Not Hallucinations  23:23 - Controlling Intrusive Thoughts 28:03 - Western vs. Eastern Ideologies  30:48 - Religious Scriptural Correlations Around the World 32:23 - Christian Has The Hottest of Takes 42:13 - Schizophrenia vs. Spiritual Awakening Ted Talk (In Facebook Group)42:43 - Reddit Stories & First Hand Accounts42:56 - STORY: I Heard The Voices Too…50:49 - STORY: Uncontrolled Psychics 51:49 - STORY: The Whispering Demon55:23 - Shaman Weighs In On Western Medicine  56:03 - Psychosis v.
