Dark Roots: Hauntings and Lore of the Black Forest, Germany | True Scary Stories

Episode | 29 min | May 4, 2025

In this week's episode, we venture deep into Germany’s legendary Black Forest – a place where folklore and fear walk hand in hand. Known for its shadowy woods and centuries-old tales, the Schwarzwald has long been home to myths of witches, werewolves, and spirits that dwell just beyond the path. From ancient legends of dark magic to chilling reports of modern-day sightings, we uncover the strange and unsettling history woven through the trees.

Ep 80

Extra | The Rutherglen Poltergeist | Scottish Haunting | True Scary Stories

Episode | 22 min | Apr 30, 2025

In this week's extra episode, we explore one of Scotland’s most recent paranormal cases - the Rutherglen Poltergeist. In 2016, a quiet suburban home became the centre of national attention when police officers and firefighters witnessed objects flying through the air, lights switching on and off, and a pet dog reportedly levitating. What began as a routine emergency call quickly escalated into one of the most compelling modern hauntings in Scottish history, leaving even seasoned officials questioning what they had seen.
