    In tonight’s dead letter, a listener recounts a childhood filled with unexplained phenomena in their 1940s Michigan home. From persistent footsteps and unsettling noises like dragging chains and hammering to a menacing presence in their bedroom, the haunting escalated over the years, driving them to seek refuge upstairs. But even then, the activity followed, with something heavy repeatedly stomping on the cast iron cover of the well room just outside their window. Pers

    44: The Beginning that Never Ended
    Sep 2 2025
    In tonight’s dead letter… Listener, Isla recalls a childhood park trip in Australia where she and a friend went exploring after her mom’s car broke down in the bush. They wandered too far from the car and observed a void-like, spear-bearing figure on the bank. The bush fell silent and the wind carried songs in an ancient language as they fled back to the car without looking back. Years later Isla still feels watched whenever she strays off the path.

I really enjoy the stories covered on this podcast. I’ve not only been entertained but learned much I didn’t know before. Topics are certainly creepy and intriguing but I love that they cover the historical side of things and theories as well. My favorite podcast of all time!

Entertaining and Informative

Amazing results with only three seasons. I've been able to open my mind to "Everything" I do now.

Awesome

This is by far the best podcast I've ever listened too. The episodes are amazing. There are single episodes but some of my favorites are the ones where they DEEP DIVE on a topic. Meaning multipart episodes at least an hour a piece, so well researched. Lots of topics; Astonishing isn't only paranormal! Legends can be human too, and even episodes you may not think will be up your alley have a way of sucking you in. Epic banter between the Hosts (Scott and Forrest) , it's clear they are such good friends and people. The research crew are great, Tess and the arch do such a fantastic job. Their fb page is the best run group I've been in, it makes for a great community experience. There are so many episodes already out so if you're looking for a binge, you're in luck!

Excellent show! A show I can re listen to again and again. It's clear that they love what they do, and even on the episodes that I don't expect to love the topic, they find a way to reel me in.

The Guys Rock- Well Researched and Presented

Been following this podcast for most of a year now, it's a great show, funny and entertaining, plus I love the level of detail they go into with these topics and the compassion they bring to the real human elements behind most legends.

Definitely recommend.
