When I was little, my grandmother used to tell me stories, not calming bedtime parables, fairy tales, or the stuff of kid-friendly fantasy.

She told me horror stories, cautionary tales, the type of stuff that kept me up at night.

These were rumors and folklore about

grisly murders from parts of the country you're not used to hearing about.

Creatures with unfinished earthly business that stalked the woods at night,

spirits that possess children, otherworldly phenomena capable of inducing madness. Restless souls.

My grandmother eventually passed and I grew up, but these stories, they've stayed with me,

haunted me.

And this show, the thing you're listening to right now,

this is my chance to exercise them,

to get them out of my mind and into yours.

My name is Rodney Barnes, and every week I'll present a new harrowing story,

a new immersive world, and a new opportunity for you to question your safety and at times your sanity

for you to scream out as victims question their circumstances.

Don't just stand there.
