Donate to our October 2024 OVERCOMING THE DARKNESS campaign at https://weirddarkness.com/overcoming. Weird Darkness is narrated by professional full-time voice actor Darren Marlar. No A.I. voices are ever used in the show. IN THIS EPISODE: Imagine waking up and all you see is pitch black darkness. You’re cold, and if you’re not mistaken, you’re also naked. You try to get up and immediately bump your head, when you spread your arms your horrible suspicion is confirmed… you are enclosed in some type of box. A refrigerated box. Then you realize it… you’re in a morgue. But wait… aren’t you’re alive? How can this be? Even now in the 21st century, tales like this do happen – and they are just as terrifying as you imagine. I’ll share true stories of people waking up in the morgue. (True Tales of People Waking Up in a Morgue) *** Paranormal creatures that feed on the flesh of humans are known in legends and stories throughout the world. But some of the nastiest of those nighttime feeders dwell in the country and culture of Japan. (The Flesh Eating Revenants of Japan) *** One of our Weirdo family members tells of a childhood incident where a game of hide and seek ends in a game of scream and run! (The Floating Baby Doll) *** Two nursing students rent an apartment together. But then things get strange. Then scary. Then horrifying. Even a skilled paranormal researcher has no explanation as to what happened to them in that apartment. (The Thing That Went Clawing In The Night) *** On May 23rd, 2020 the city of Bryan, Texas had an incredible lightning storm. But what normally would be a fascinating experience, became utterly horrifying when seemingly out of nowhere, straight from the blackened sky, came what sounded like a woman screaming… and screaming… and screaming. I’ll share the story and the terrifying audio. (Screaming in a Texas Lightning Storm) *** You don't want to get too close to the tomb of Bloody Mackenzie at the Greyfriars Kirkyard - his evil spirit just might grab you by the throat.
