Ep 243: Your True Halloween Stories Part 1

 

 
“The tarot is sacred.”
— Chilean-French avant-garde filmmaker, Alejandro Jodorowsky
 

Description:

Astonishing Legends is all about fascinating and mysterious topics. And within that category, the details we cover can be unsettling or downright terrifying. But you may not realize that some of the most chilling and creepy accounts we've ever encountered have come from our listeners! We've received thousands of emails over our eight years of podcasting, and we appreciate and value every one of them. We realize that it takes no small amount of courage to send such personal anecdotes to strangers out in the world, becoming vulnerable to ridicule or scorn. So to honor that conviction and trust and show our tremendous gratitude to our audience, we're proud to present your scariest true stories in three parts. Also, because the Spooky Season is upon us, and most of us enjoy a frightening Halloween tale, what better time to hear about the weirdness of our world? So we invite you to settle in, lock your doors and windows, suspend any disbelief you might have, and enjoy these narratives as entertainment, evidence, or cautionary tales. However you choose to consume them, if the urge to publicly debunk strikes you, please respect that our storytellers insist these reports are genuine. They really did happen to someone. Remember that sometimes the most chilling thing you can see at the beginning of any work of horror fiction are the words, "Based on a true story."

Send us your scariest true stories for Halloween! 🎃👻👽😈😱

We’re looking for the scariest, spooky true stories you know, and we’re asking you to write them out and send them to us via email at astonishingcontact@gmail.com. Specifically looking for stories that fit in the vein of our show – ghosts, hauntings, cryptids, strange encounters, and UFOs are all in play. Scary is the theme. The story should have a little “meat” to it, meaning we’re looking for impactful anecdotes. We’ll feature the most chilling for our Halloween episodes, but if your story doesn’t make it this time, don’t fret, we’ll keep it on file! Thanks!
