    Love this Show
    The way the stories are told are gripping and keep you hooked. I also personally find the narrator’s voice very relaxing.

    Misleading
    If you like less than average creepy-pastas over true crime or true horror stories in general, this is the Podcast for you. I don’t think it’s right to say you are reading “True” or even “Allegedly True” stories when it’s blatantly obvious that a solid 90% of these stories are not. Most of them sound like they were written in a middle school creative writing class.

    NORMAL.
    Feel like I should talk about how your voice gives me feelings and how I know your life story though I’ve never met you and how I sleep in my basement with hundreds of pictures of you surrounding me like everyone else does. But that’d be weird. Just want to say I enjoy drifting off to the willowy grasping arms of slumber-land hearing about a 7 foot bipedal canine with the screaming face of a man stretched across it’s hairless fetid skull, because I’m totally normal.

    Great listen!
    I enjoy listening to this podcast while toiling away at my desk job. Great way to tune out office nonsense. Darkness Prevails has a soothing voice that makes my day a little bit easier.

    Darkness Prevails once more
    I have been a listener since 2018-2019 following your skin-walker stories on YouTube. This began the unhealthy but extremely entertaining addiction of going down the horror rabbit-hole. You are an incredible story-teller and I’m so glad you have been getting the content from so many amazing individuals willing to tell their stories! 10/10 stars DP even though I can only give 5/5.

    Amazing!
    I am a dog groomer and usually have headphones in to listen to things at work. I used to mainly listen to music but the past year I’ve been obsessively listening to this podcast. It’s my absolute favorite!!
  • Evan is nice
    Amazing 😃😃😃😃😃
    It’s phenomenal I’m so amazed by it’s not TO scary but it still can scare you.

    Weekly Listener
    Darkness Prevails brings to life each story submitted by his listeners. I must say these stories take the statement “My job is a nightmare” and run with it! Truly terrifying and you will tune in every week.

    Dogman or Werewolf?
    Hey all, First off I wanna say love the channel. Been following you guys for a while now. I came here to address some plot holes that were never addressed in the latest episode of Tales from the Break Room. Specifically Dogman vs The Farmhand. The first one is when he said passed out and woke up the next morning he said he slid his sleeve up and saw his watch and it read “6:07” But then later when he climbed the silo ladder he said he looked at his watch again and said it was almost 6am close to sun up, Contradicting what he said earlier about looking at his watch after waking up from being passed out. The last pothole that i noticed is several times throughout the story he called it a “werewolf” but the title of the story is the Dogman, which in Appalachian folklore is much much much different than a werewolf. I have lived in Appalachia all my life and out of all the stories and myths I’ve heard..there’s one thing that everyone agrees on. It’s that dogman is NOT a werewolf, So my question of the day is which was it? Was it werewolf or dogman?

    My Bed Time Podcast to Relax By 💤 I Love Being Frightened Sheet-less 🛏️ 👻🫣
    I never knew that I could find a podcast with a voice like his! The way I find the best Podcasts are b: a) favorite subject matter ☑️; b) the background sound production, professionalism and concert of theme of instrumentals and differentiation of tone of voice of the Podcaster to inflect the feelings of each character at the level of absolute PERFECTION TO MY EARS ☑️; c) story themes are ALWAYS consistent and EVERY EPISODE keeps me hanging on the edge of my bed while gripping onto my big dog like a life vest😳😳☑️; d) His voice is soothing while at the same time clear, personable to me, he pulls me in, and most of all the resonance of his voice relaxes me completely. My ear buds go right in, I put 15 more episodes into my queue, and get ready to be scared “SHEET-LESS” while I fall asleep with the volume on high, my big ginger dog right next to me and my 5 point seat belts securely fastened and I am down for the count in less then maybe …. 4-5 hours because I cannot miss one episode at all!!!!

    Not original stories
    Listened to the latest episode about the guy who worked in the pound and there was a dog there that killed its family in the end…it was taken from another podcast I listen to “Full Body Chills”
  • GREEKING OUT 4EVER
    W O W
    For starters the podcast is amazing and darkness prevails is an amazing host but no more guest narrators I kind of have to adjust to each host and it really takes away from the experience but other then that you eerie cast you are doing a great job hope to hear more shows (I listen to more than just this one eerie cast podcast)
  • Ljjiihj
    WIZARDDETECTIVE
    Keep these stories coming
  • J.Savage44
    Overall good show but could use less “compilation”
    Very good podcast overall, only downside is the compilation episodes, I feel like they are so many of them between “tales from the break room”and “unexplained encounters” that’s it’s made me lose interest in either podcast because it’s 5 hours of stories I hear a couple weeks ago, I get a little excited still when I see something new but if I see (compilation) in the title for the episode I don’t even waste my time anymore.

    Sleeping
    I love this podcast because I sleep like a baby and it’s like the narrator is so good and it’s just a really good podcast and it’s scary but not too scary which I really like so thank you whoever made this podcast
  • Ace Troy
    The new AI voice you guys are using repeats itself
    Very annoying and ruins the listening experience
  • Gords44
    Great podcast BUT….
    Please no guest hosts. The most recent female guest host does not speak clearly (very hard to understand) and it is very distracting from the story!!
  • Chase9291!
    Excellent Podcast
    This and The Redwoo should do a crossover of you haven’t already.
  • JJ12324
    Can’t get enough
    This podcast is seriously my absolute favorite. I loved your other show as well but the sound effects made it impossible for me to sleep..so this show gets played a lot.
  • Nixie730
    Your work weeks newest necessity.
    I honestly don’t know how I’ve ever made it through my work week without this podcast. Great narration and super captivating stories that’ll make your week a lot more tolerable.
  • Stefan Urquelle
    You’ve Tried The Rest….
    …now try the BEST paranormal podcast. It checks off all the boxes on your wishlist for best podcast of this genre. Effortlessly engaging storytelling.
  • JeepersGirl
    Allegedly Real 🙄
    This is an entertaining podcast with a majority of creative writing samples. Especially after they started paying for submissions. Worth listening to, but grain of salt required when it comes to truth.
  • #1Supporter❤️
    Confused
    I like this podcast, but in the past 2 episodes there has been another completely different podcast attached to the episode. We didn’t ask for that, it’s like trying to force up to listen to some podcast we don’t care about. If this continues, I’ll just unsubscribe.
  • misamisa96
    Stories repeating
    Found this podcast within the last month so I’m binging everything. I love the stories but I feel like I’m listening to the same stories over and over. I have to go back and make sure I’m not starting the same episode. And I also notice like others that it skips or plays back a certain part. It’s a little annoying.
  • 1265musiclover
    Best Podcast

  • ink_splatter
    LITERALLY THE BEST PODCAST EVER
    I’ve been listening to Tales from the Break Room, as well as Unexplained Encounters for a little more than a year, and I absolutely LOVE THEM. I’ve gotten my phone taken way because I was listening to this 24/7 lol, so I have a lot of episodes to catch up on, so that’s what I’ll be doing for the next who knows how long.
  • Blueskyclear
    Entertaining but fictional stories
    Kind of frustrating these are under “true horror stories” since most of these stories aren’t true but if you like fictionalized horror stories they can be entertaining.
  • Taffs555
    Amazing
    This and your other podcasts have become my absolute favorite! Great story teller & interesting tales! I re-listen to my favorite. Love this podcast. Thanks for doing all of your podcasts & please keep them coming!
  • downey ism
    So great
    I’ve been listening for a while it keeps getting better such a great podcast I would recommend to any horror fans!!!
  • JackR_409
    Absolutely the best
    It’s probably not the best idea to listen to podcasts while in class, but during my boring work day I always get a kick out of this and unexplained encounters and it can get scary, especially if you work the night shift…
  • chaoticenergycat
    Fantastic but
    Love this show but does anyone else have an issue with the audio skipping or jumping ahead or jumping back? It feels like the episodes got chopped awkwardly in editing or there may be a software issue but almost every episode skips in some way and I’ll miss out on hearing part of the stories or they continuously repeat the same part.
