Approximately 5 years ago, huge portions of the worlds population walked into their homes and locked the doors behind them. We waved at loved ones through windows, donned our masks, hoarded our toilet paper and used Clorox wipes on everything, including containers of Clorox wipes. We were all trying desperately to avoid Covid, which many of us got anyway and most of us have gotten since. It was a strange and sad time for the world but it was when our little podcast got some of the most fascinating stories we've ever heard. This week, Haunted AF is recognizing this difficult anniversary by revisiting some of our favorites from the very first weeks of lockdown. They aren't all scary, but they were definitely a way to feel connected while we were isolated.

Get ready for some of the wildest stories you've ever heard!

Haunted AF will not be releasing a video or companion blog next week because we're looking back at some of our best stories from the Covid shutdown. Make sure you listen to that but we'll be back to normal on March 20th. In the meantime, don't forget to send your scary stories to [email protected] so we can use them on the next Haunted AF!
