  • Whispers from the Ouachitas - Granny Witches, Yarb Doctors & the Old Mountain Ways
    Jun 1 2026
    A little something different this week. Carman Carrion just got back from four days in a cabin on the Ouachita River near Hot Springs, Arkansas—and she didn't come home empty-handed. In this special shorter episode, there are no dramatized retellings. No fictional reenactments. Just a folklore field report from the deep hollers of the Ouachita Mountains, told the way it might've been told on a porch a hundred years ago. Pull up a chair and listen in as Carman shares what she learned about the old mountain ways—the folk magic, healing traditions, and dark whispers that have lived in these ancient hills for generations: 🌿 The Granny Witches who could "blow fire" out of a burn with a whispered verse 🌱 The Yarb Doctors who knew which roots healed and which roots killed 🦉 Death omens, haints, and the signs the mountains use to warn the living 🌙 Planting by the moon, persimmon seeds, and the woolly worm's winter forecast 👁️ The Wampus Cat, the Snawfus, the Hidebehind, and the ghost lights that still float through the trees 🏚️ Why old porches were painted "haint blue"—and what it was meant to keep out This is the folk practice the academics call Ozark and Appalachian folk magic. The locals just called it the way things were done. Most of it is fading now. But some of it… some of it is still very much alive. So pour yourself something warm, settle in, and let the mountains whisper.

  • Nure-onna - The Snake Woman Who Steals Children
    May 25 2026
    Deep in Japanese coastal folklore lurks the Nure-onna, a terrifying yokai that appears as a beautiful woman in a white kimono—until she reveals her serpentine lower body. This "wet woman" haunts beaches, rivers, and tide pools, using an enchanted baby bundle to trap victims or stealing real infants from their mothers. Discover the chilling legend of a predator that weaponizes maternal instinct, the regional variations from Shimane to Niigata, her partnership with the ox-demon Ushi-oni, and why this ancient warning about stranger danger remains relevant today. #Freaky Folklore #Nureonna #JapaneseYokai #CoastalLegends #SnakeWoman #JapaneseFolklore #Yokai #BabyStealer #JapaneseHorror #UrbanLegends #Mythology #CreepyTales #HorrorPodcast #Folklore #JapaneseMyths #SupernaturalCreatures #WetWoman #ShimanePrefecture #MonsterLegends #Eeriecast EXPLORE MORE SPINE-CHILLING CONTENT: Freaky Folklore: https://www.eeriecast.com/podcasts/freaky-folklore Carman's Crypt (Original Horror): https://www.carman-carrion.com/ Deadly Intent (True Crime): https://www.carman-carrion.com/ Destination Terror: https://www.eeriecast.com/podcasts/destination-terror ________________________________________ SUPPORT THE SHOW: Patreon (Ad-Free + Bonus Content): https://www.patreon.com/c/CarmanCarrion Buy Me a Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/carmancarrion ________________________________________ CONNECT WITH CARMAN: Website: https://www.carman-carrion.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@CarmanCarrion Twitter/X: https://x.com/CarmanCarrion Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/carmancarrion/ ________________________________________ SUBSCRIBE & REVIEW: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0uiX155WEJnN7QVRfo3aQY iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/freaky-folklore/id1550361184 Your support helps bring you more terrifying tales. ________________________________________ DISCOVER MORE HORROR: http://eeriecast.com/ https://www.carman-carrion.com/ ________________________________________ THE CRYPT SHOP: https://the-crypt-shop-2.myshopify.com/ ________________________________________ MUSIC CREDITS: Music and sound effects provided by: CO.AG, Myuu, Jinglepunks, Epidemic Sound, Kevin MacLeod, Dark Music, and Soundstripe.

  • Incubus - The Medieval Sex Demon Still Haunting Bedrooms
    May 18 2026
    The male demon that visits women in their dreams, stealing more than just sleep. Handsome, seductive, and deadly—the Incubus is the dark counterpart to the Succubus, and his victims wake up exhausted, violated, and sometimes pregnant with something that shouldn't exist. #Incubus #Succubus #DemonLover #Cambion #Merlin #MedievalDemonology #SexDemon #FreakyFolklore #DarkFolklore #ChristianDemonology #MalleusMaleficarum #WitchTrials #SupernaturalSeduction #DemonicPregnancy #NightDemon #ForbiddenDesire #ParanormalFolklore #DemonMythology #Mythology #HorrorPodcast #FolklorePodcast #AncientDemons #MedievalLegends EXPLORE MORE SPINE-CHILLING CONTENT: Freaky Folklore: https://www.eeriecast.com/podcasts/freaky-folklore Carman's Crypt (Original Horror): https://www.carman-carrion.com/ Deadly Intent (True Crime): https://www.carman-carrion.com/ Destination Terror: https://www.eeriecast.com/podcasts/destination-terror ________________________________________ SUPPORT THE SHOW: Patreon (Ad-Free + Bonus Content): https://www.patreon.com/c/CarmanCarrion Buy Me a Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/carmancarrion ________________________________________ CONNECT WITH CARMAN: Website: https://www.carman-carrion.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@CarmanCarrion Twitter/X: https://x.com/CarmanCarrion Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/carmancarrion/ ________________________________________ SUBSCRIBE & REVIEW: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0uiX155WEJnN7QVRfo3aQY iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/freaky-folklore/id1550361184 Your support helps bring you more terrifying tales. ________________________________________ DISCOVER MORE HORROR: http://eeriecast.com/ https://www.carman-carrion.com/ ________________________________________ THE CRYPT SHOP: https://the-crypt-shop-2.myshopify.com/ ________________________________________ MUSIC CREDITS: Music and sound effects provided by: CO.AG, Myuu, Jinglepunks, Epidemic Sound, Kevin MacLeod, Dark Music, and Soundstripe.

I have been searching for more podcasts that are paranormal, supernatural, and spooky that cover urban legends, lore, and encounters with the unexplained (as well as explaining more about the history behind such), and Freaky Folklore is definitely one of my favorites! For me, it's the kind of podcast I love to dim or turn off the lights, or light a candle, to listen to and imagine myself possibly encountering something so strange to ask myself what my reaction would really be in whatever situation it is. Definitely worth listening to!

Amazing Spooky/Strange Podcast

Each week is a new story of a creepy legend or recent cryptid. They have a story for each of the creepy creatures as well as information about them.

Amazing storytelling and informat

First off, with the exception of one episode, is more artful with words than to have to use the worse of words.
Second, I love starting with a story, half way thru give all of what she could find related, then continue the story!
Third, IT'S GREAT!!!

Mixes both stortelling with as much fact as she can, verifyable or only folklore!
