Haunted Houses & Cursed Finds Six Ghost Stories of Possession, Poltergeists, and True Terror

Author: Henrique Couto | Scary Stories & Horror Expert January 17, 2026 Duration: 2:08:30
If you’re craving haunted house horror stories, ghost stories, and paranormal encounters that escalate fast—this compilation is your next late-night listen. From a historic inn with a locked room and a German priest’s shadow, to an abandoned murder house that turns viral for all the wrong reasons… these tales spiral through possession, poltergeist chaos, cursed objects, and the kind of dread that follows you home.

Inside this compilation (in order):

Horror at the Hexagon House Inn — Bill Spears: A writer relocates to a booming Texas town for his wife’s health… only to discover Room 4 is not empty—and the past isn’t buried. Letters become evidence, and the haunting turns personal.
• The House That Killed Me — Bruce Haney: An “abandoned places” YouTuber chases the next big upload in rural Oregon—until child-ghost warnings, a cellar secret, and hungry predators turn content into a death sentence.
• Ghost Story — A.N. Onimus: A strange boy at the county fair leads two friends to a mansion that won’t let them leave—where time fractures, doors lie, and something in the dark learns their fear.
• Thrifting Fail - We’re now Haunted! — Bruce Haney: A $1 yard-sale bowl comes with a freezing presence and an angry artist’s spirit—until the couple realizes the haunting has rules… and the only way out might be to pass it on.
• Lucien Greyshire and the Ghost from Applebee’s — L.F. Falconer: A scarred party-producer who can see the dead recruits a teenage poltergeist—promising purpose, spectacle, and a darker “service” hiding beneath Halloween entertainment.
• The House in the Woods — Bruce Haney: A lost hike, a carved jack-o’-lantern, and a bonfire reveal a house that shouldn’t exist—where spiders wear human skin and desperation tempts a man to return.

Hit play, lock the doors, and tell me which one crawled under your skin the most.

Henrique Couto has spent years digging into the shadows, and in Weekly Spooky: Horror Stories & Scary Tales, he turns that expertise into a regular dose of dread. This isn't just a seasonal treat; it's a year-round exploration of the unsettling, released every Monday and Wednesday. You'll hear original tales woven from classic threads-the whisper of an urban legend, the creak of a haunted house floorboard, the grim history of a cursed object. Familiar monsters like vampires and werewolves get fresh, chilling life, while cryptids lurk in the margins of modern myths. Each story is crafted for a mature audience, blending dark humor with genuinely cinematic sound design that pulls you right into the scene, all leading to those satisfying, often shocking, twist endings. While the podcast naturally excels during the spooky season with special deep dives, the commitment to weekly frights means the atmosphere is always ripe for a scare, whether the subject is pure fiction, dramatic re-tellings, or tales ripped from true crime's darkest corners. Settle in for a journey where the familiar becomes frightening again, narrated by a guide who truly understands the mechanics of a good, lasting chill.
