Weekly Spooky: Scary Stories and Horror Fun Every Week!

Looking for Valentine’s Week horror that isn’t cheesy romance? This Weekly Spooky compilation is pure anti-Valentine’s Day energy: first dates from hell, toxic love, jealousy, betrayal, revenge, and monsters that don’t take “no” for an answer. Perfect for a date-night scare, a breakup binge, or anyone searching for love gone wrong horror stories and scary stories for Valentine’s week—without the cute stuff.

Tonight’s lineup (in order):

• Till Death Do Us Part — by Rob Fields — A wedding day should be sacred… but in Strickfield, vows can become a curse, and the aisle can turn into a locked-room nightmare.
• Party in the Woods — by Joe Solmo — A flirty night out in the dark feels harmless—until the woods answer back and the party becomes a panic sprint for survival.
• First Date — by Rob Fields — A long-simmering crush finally gets its shot… and everything about it feels off, like the universe is setting a trap.
• Dead Ahead — by Joe Solmo — A couple makes one terrible decision on a lonely road—and learns the consequences don’t end when the headlights fade.
• Love Conquers All — by Joe Solmo — Teen lust, cruelty, and peer pressure crack something open in the dark… and whatever steps through wants devotion on its own terms.
• Roxie — by Charles Campbell — A chance encounter turns into fixation, and the line between romance and ruin disappears one heartbeat at a time.
• Cesspool: A Love Story — by David O’Hanlon — Rich-kid poolside drama, a dangerous crush, and something beneath the water that’s ready to feed.
• Suspended — by Rob Fields — Attraction becomes leverage, power flips fast, and Strickfield’s hallways prove love can be used like a weapon.

New here? This episode stands alone—just press play.

What’s scarier: falling in love, or realizing you fell for the wrong thing?

A fog-thick highway. An empty box truck with no traction. One split-second swerve… and you’re tumbling off the road into trees, glass, blood, and a headlight that can’t cut through the gloom.
What happens next isn’t a simple winter driving nightmare—it’s a survival horror encounter in the woods below the berm, where the fog feels alive, the air reeks of death, and something huge moves on two legs like it owns the night.

Trapped in a wreck, hurt badly, and invisible to everyone rushing past overhead, you’ve got only a few options: climb, hide, or pray the thing outside doesn’t find a way in. And if it does… the real terror isn’t the crash. It’s what came to the crash.

If you love creature features, roadside horror, winter driving scares, and tight first-person survival stories with a vicious final sting… buckle up.

A remote Arctic camp. Tents standing open in the wind. A half-finished mitten, needle still threaded—like someone stood up mid-stitch and never returned. The legend of Angikuni Lake is one of the most chilling “vanishing village” mysteries ever told: an Inuit camp along the Kazan River corridor in Nunavut—found eerily intact… but empty.

In the campfire version, everything is wrong in the most cinematic way: food left behind, supplies untouched, dogs silent on their lines, and even a grave disturbed—stones set carefully in place, yet the body gone. Then come the rumors that push the story over the edge: strange lights over the tundra, a presence in the winter sky, and the unsettling feeling that whatever happened didn’t flee in panic… it simply removed the people.

Tonight, we tell the story as it’s been repeated for decades—cold, vivid, and terrifying—then we ease back into daylight and examine how a single newspaper mystery can snowball into “fact,” why records don’t always match the retellings, and how to treat Inuit life and northern history with respect while still delivering a killer scare. If you love unsolved mysteries, UFO folklore, Arctic survival horror, and legends that feel like they could be waiting just beyond the edge of the firelight… this one’s for you.
Inside this episode:

• The legend, full volume: the empty camp, abandoned sewing, and “life paused mid-breath” details
• The dogs: the image that became the story’s anchor
• The grave: why that moment turns “abandoned” into “impossible”
• Lights over the ice: how the tale mutates into UFO/abduction folklore
• The reality check: what holds up, what doesn’t, and why the legend persists
• A responsible landing: keeping the chills without turning real people into props

We’re telling that story tonight.

Unknown Broadcast slips into your Weekly Spooky feed with classic old-time radio horror stories, radio suspense, and vintage OTR mystery—the kind of tales that start with a simple temptation… and end with someone realizing they should’ve left well enough alone. 

• 💎 Leave Well Enough Alone — A marriage, a growing doubt, and a trail of jewelry that turns love into obsession… until the truth hits like a knife you never saw coming. 
• ☠️ The Diary of Doctor Pritchard — A doctor with a reputation… a chemist’s bottle… and a poison that doesn’t forgive. The kind of evil that smiles politely while it pours the dose. 
• 🚂 The 415 Express — A cold report, a hot trail, and a train heading out with more than passengers aboard… including the answer to missing money and a name you won’t forget. 
• 🪙 Glass Dime — A rare coin vanishes, a reward goes up, and suddenly everyone has a reason to lie. When something’s worth thousands, it can cost you everything. 

Four stories… and every one of them proves the same rule: the moment you reach for more, something in the dark reaches back.

Snowed-in slasher horror, murder mystery, and winter survival terror collide in BANNED!—the complete 4-part horror miniseries binge. When a brutal blizzard traps a packed horror convention inside a remote ski lodge in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, the weekend refuses to shut down… even as the atmosphere turns tight, paranoid, and dangerously claustrophobic.

This is a full compilation—all four parts back-to-back—built for listeners who love classic slasher vibes, locked-room tension, backstage convention chaos, and that stomach-dropping feeling of realizing help isn’t coming. The hallways feel longer at night. The crowd feels less friendly by the hour. And somewhere in the lodge, someone isn’t here for autographs… they’re here for payback.

Expect snowbound suspense, creeping dread, and relentless momentum as the storm seals the doors and the lodge becomes its own little world—one where every knock, every announcement, and every distant footstep could mean you’re next.

Hit play for the perfect cold-weekend binge—and tell me, my spookies: which part made you check your locks?

• A Plant Called Death — by Bruce HaneyA couple hikes deep into the Pacific Northwest hunting a legendary bloom with a strange cycle… and discovers why some myths survive by warning people away.
• Stay Hungry — by David O’HanlonA documentary crew tracks Colombia’s infamous “cocaine hippos,” only to realize the river has new rules—and the biggest thing in the water isn’t the only thing hunting.
• The Hellhowler — by Joe SolmoParanormal investigator James Becker takes a client’s “I’m being hunted” claim seriously—because something out there really is answering the call, and it’s closing in fast. 

**My spookies—**which story hit you the hardest… the waterfall, the bloom, the river, or the hound?

Winter slasher horror, murder mystery, and survival terror collide in the final chapter of BANNED! as the High Point Ski Lodge disappears under a relentless blizzard and the Horror Snow-In reaches its breaking point.

With the body count climbing and the storm sealing every road out, the killer’s plan shifts from lurking to finishing—dragging the weekend toward a confrontation nobody can walk away from unchanged. Headliner Vickie Valentine is pushed past her limits as something dangerous inside her threatens to surface, and the lodge’s desperate leadership makes choices that turn panic into chaos.

Part 4 delivers the payoff: reveals, reckonings, and a snowbound endgame where the truth finally steps out of the shadows… and the word BANNED stops being a message and becomes a sentence.
