  • Terrifying & True | Thanksgiving in a Haunted Wilderness: the Pilgrims, the Wampanoag, and the First Feast

    Terrifying & True | Thanksgiving in a Haunted Wilderness: the Pilgrims, the Wampanoag, and the First Feast
    Nov 17 2025
    Every November we hear the cozy legend of the First Thanksgiving—Pilgrims, turkey, and a peaceful feast in the New World. But the real story behind Thanksgiving is much darker. Long before it became a holiday, the land around Plymouth was a plague-ravaged, haunted wilderness, where the Pilgrims saw the Devil in every tree… and the Wampanoag saw spirits in every swamp.This is the terrifying true story behind the celebration we remember every Thanksgiving.In this Thanksgiving horror history episode of Terrifying & True, we go back to 1620–1630, when the Mayflower arrived in a New England already emptied by a mysterious European plague. The Pilgrims believed God had “cleared” the land for them. The Wampanoag wondered if the strangers from across the sea carried a curse. As November winds howled and crops failed, both sides read every storm, comet, and sickness as a sign from the spirit world.We’ll walk into Hockomock Swamp, the “place where spirits dwell”, where the Wampanoag said the powerful manitou Hobbamock gathered souls in the mist. We’ll stand with the Pilgrims on a freezing night, hearing “hideous and great” shouts in the darkness and wondering if it’s an attack—or a demon. We’ll sit inside Massasoit’s lodge as the Wampanoag sachem lies near death in 1623, while powwaws chant, English prayers rise, and a strange alliance is sealed when he survives.This is the side of Thanksgiving you don’t hear about in school: secret midnight burials on Cole’s Hill, raided cornfields, rumors that the English kept plague in barrels, and a fragile peace that led to that famous 1621 harvest feast—a celebration held under a sky both peoples believed was full of omens and spirits. The Pilgrims saw themselves as a chosen people in a howling wilderness. The Wampanoag lived with a new fear: that a foreign God might be stronger than their own.From these first Thanksgiving-era encounters grew a legacy of paranoia that reaches all the way to the Salem witch trials and King Philip’s War. The Pilgrims’ Thanksgiving miracle stories, the Wampanoag’s spiritual world of Kiehtan and Hobbamock, and the brutal reality of disease and hunger combined into one of America’s earliest haunted holiday tales. This year, as you carve the turkey, remember: the road to that “peaceful” feast was paved with ghost stories, curses, and fear.Inside this episode:The real first Thanksgiving: How a fragile truce, a desperate harvest, and a haunted landscape created the feast we still celebrate every November.Pilgrims in a howling wilderness: Why early settlers believed New England was a devil-haunted forest and read every disaster as God’s judgment.Wampanoag spirits and Hobbamock: The Native cosmology of Kiehtan, Hobbamock, manitous, and powwaws—and why English colonists called it “witchcraft.”Plague, providence, and plague barrels: The 1616–1619 epidemic, empty villages, and rumors that the English stored disease as a weapon.Omens, comets, and curses: From strange lights in the sky to disturbed graves, how both sides believed the land around Plymouth was full of warnings.Miracle rain and a dying sachem: The 1623 fast and gentle rain, Massasoit’s near-fatal illness, and the moments both peoples thought their gods had spoken.From feast to war: How this haunted decade laid the spiritual groundwork for Salem, King Philip’s War, and centuries of Thanksgiving myths.If you’re looking for a Thanksgiving episode that digs into the true horror behind the Pilgrims and the Wampanoag, this is your haunted holiday history—the dark story hiding behind the turkey and the pies.Support the show AND get delicious coffee for a creepy night in at 25% off using code “SPOOKY”https://savorista.com/discount/SPOOKY🎧 LISTEN NOW and subscribe for spine-tingling horror stories every week!🎉 Unlock exclusive bonus episodes and support the show on Patreon!👉 WeeklySpooky.com/Join📬 Contact Us / Submit Your Horror Story!Twitter: @WeeklySpookyFacebook: facebook.com/WeeklySpookyEmail: WeeklySpooky@gmail.com🎵 Music by Ray Mattis 👉 Check out Ray’s incredible work here !👨‍💼 Executive Producers: Rob Fields, Bobbletopia.com🎥 Produced by: Daniel Wilder🌐 Explore more terrifying tales at: WeeklySpooky.com

  • Unknown Broadcast | Echoes at Midnight: Stories of Dreams, Corpses, and the Old Country

    Unknown Broadcast | Echoes at Midnight: Stories of Dreams, Corpses, and the Old Country
    Nov 16 2025
    Ah, hello, my dear. You’ve wandered into Unknown Broadcast—your little doorway to old-time radio horror stories, classic OTR chills, and the hush of radio suspense that never quite died. Tonight, the dial slips and the past answers. Don’t fret if the voice sounds close; some things sit beside you when you press play. My dear, listen very carefully.🧳 The Old Country — A son returns across oceans and years, and the land remembers him better than he remembers himself. Roots grip deeper than bones; the soil keeps its own ledger of debts unpaid.🏃‍♀️ I Saw Myself Running — A dream catches you by the wrist and won’t let go; you are both the hunter and the hunted, the echo and the scream. If you wake, who exactly wakes with you?🌘 Nightmare — Midnight keeps an account of what you deny in daylight. The mind fractures, the hour stretches, and the dark helpfully supplies what you fear most.🚃 The Visiting Corpse — A traveler arrives who should not travel; a guest calls who should not call. Some visits, my dear, are not to be returned.Lean in. Unknown Broadcast draws its signal from the static between stations—vintage radio horror, ghost stories, mystery theater—all the strange company you secretly crave. When the knocks come in threes, don’t answer on the third. Not tonight, my dear.Stay with me in the glow of the dial—classic OTR horror stories still breathe here, and they remember your name.In this lecture, we explore the complex narrative surrounding Gabriel Carson, a successful strategic planner navigating the intersections of identity, legacy, and familial ties. The story opens with a dynamic interplay between Gabriel and his mother, revealing the generation gap and the cultural rift stemming from their immigrant backgrounds. Gabriel’s internal conflict emerges as his mother yearns for her past, presenting a contrasting perspective to his modern, corporate lifestyle filled with accolades and anonymity.The dialogue transitions into a deeper examination of Gabriel's roots, tracing back to his origins as Gavri Kaja. This transformation is pivotal, suggesting a desire to distance himself from his past as he climbs the corporate ladder. However, through conversations with his mother, who remains deeply connected to her heritage, we observe a tension between his ambitions and the silent call of his ancestry. Her insistence on him understanding their lineage highlights a significant theme: the inescapable pull of one’s heritage.As the narrative unfolds, Gabriel is swept away into a series of surreal experiences upon his arrival in Trieste, marked by encounters with mysterious figures like Volk, who appear to be tethered to his forgotten past. The atmosphere grows heavier with suspense as Gabriel is thrust into a historical context, paralleling the war-ridden backdrop of the past with his present-day dilemmas. These encounters force Gabriel to confront his identity and the unresolved issues regarding his father, Gavri Kaja, and the sacrifices made for survival and connection during turbulent times.The plot thickens as Gabriel finds himself entangled in a web of intrigue involving German soldiers and the village of Gorvan, his father's home. An unexpected twist brings forth questions about loyalty, betrayal, and the cyclical nature of history as Gabriel grapples with his father's legacy. The tension escalates with Gabriel being coerced into a position where he must either assert his newfound identity or succumb to the shadows of his ancestral influences.In the climax, Gabriel's internal struggle culminates in an allegorical confrontation with his past, leading him to recognize that his father's spirit lives on within him. The resolution prompts a transformative decision as he contemplates the weight of his choices and their impact on his future. The intricate tapestry woven throughout the lecture leaves listeners contemplating their own connections to heritage, identity, and the legacies they carry.Ultimately, this lecture serves not only as a narrative experience but as a profound exploration of self-discovery and the overarching themes of belonging that resonate through generations. Gabriel's journey reinforces the significance of understanding one’s roots while adapting to modernity, sparking a compelling discussion on the narratives that shape our identities and the familial bonds that persist through time.🎧 LISTEN NOW and subscribe for spine-tingling horror stories every week!🎉 Unlock exclusive bonus episodes and support the show on Patreon!👉 WeeklySpooky.com/Join📬 Contact Us / Submit Your Horror Story!Twitter: @WeeklySpookyFacebook: facebook.com/WeeklySpookyEmail: WeeklySpooky@gmail.com🎵 Music by Ray Mattis 👉 Check out Ray’s incredible work here !👨‍💼 Executive Producers: Rob Fields, Bobbletopia.com🎥 Produced by: Daniel Wilder🌐 Explore more terrifying tales at: WeeklySpooky.com

    Nov 14 2025
    This week on Cutting Deep into Horror, hosts Henrique Couto & Rachael Redolfi dive into Bitter Feast (2010)—a brutally underrated foodie horror thriller perfect for the Thanksgiving season. When a celebrity chef snaps after a vicious review, a simple cooking critique becomes a nightmarish showdown of revenge, obsession, and culinary torture.

    We break down why Bitter Feast has become a cult favorite for fans of chef horror, creative captivity stories, and Thanksgiving-adjacent genre films, and how its themes of burnout, public shaming, and internet criticism feel even more relevant today. From the dark humor to the escalating violence, this is a dish best served terrifying.

    We also explore its place in 2010s indie horror, the performances that make the tension simmer, and why this might be one of the most overlooked movies to add to your late-November watchlist.

    • The twisted charm of foodie horror and why it explodes during Thanksgiving

Absolutely disgusting that this podcast would spread an Urban Legend from the AIDS epidemic that stigmatized people with the disease. This perpetuates harmful stereotypes and marginalizes an already vulnerable population. Followed this podcast for a long time, not anymore. Grow up. Do better.

Offensive
