I think the enjoyment comes from experiencing an adrenaline boost whilst in a totally safe environment. I love lying in bed at night and feeling my heart racing to a creepy story, knowing I'm tucked up in my house, {hopefully} hundreds of miles from the cryptids in these stories. For similar reasons & past experiences, I can't listen to tales about shadow people or haunted houses ... the "safe at home" element doesn't quite feel the same 😂
I just want to say how perfect your voice is for storytelling. I came across your podcast last week and have been listening to stories every day (during day lol) since. This is my new obsession. And I can't get enough
Skinwalker: "John, it's grandpa, I need you to let me in." Me: "I don't trust you. If you're really my grandpa, then what year did you retire from Bofa?" Skinwalker: "Bofa?" Me: "Bofa deez nuts! HA, GOT'EEEEEEM!"
I love the way your voice is clear and calm instead of trying to sound all gravelly and extra creepy. That's actually what makes the stories themselves more disturbing. My new favourite channel - I'm hooked.
That's a matter or opinion. There's the direct opposite view that people think the exaggerated voice makes the stories scarier. Hence why you have channels with hundred of thousand subs or even a million plus that are doing the literal opposite of you're praising
The story about beach camping near Forks: I live on the Olympic Peninsula and implore you NOT to bring your dogs on trails where they are prohibited. Especially if they’re off leash. It can damage the tail, spook natural wildlife (or get hurt by wildlife), and people almost never clean up the poop. I love my dog and she’s like a baby to me, but I’m not above the rules.
I used to bring my dog there off leash and the worst thing that happened was a couple of squirrels ran off with her leash at least i think they were squirrels..
Same lol. I’ve found 30 minute storys allow me to finish them then go to sleep while 40 minute storys I fall asleep around 30 unless it’s a very good story. U guys the same?
Same here. I've never had nightmares from them. I have had many dreams where I'm sitting and talking with someone who is telling me the story from the video.
Awesome! Gotta love your compilations Darkness, thanks a lot for the new video! I just love the story of My coworker has been replaced by something, it's creepy and unsettling AF and it has been one of my favorite stories from this year!😁😁
wow! super video. i've been perusing a few of them ever since i first found your channel. lol im obsessed with your content and have gradually got my other half into your videos as well, now we both cant get enough!
We live in the most southeastern part of wi. We have the dunes on the east part of property and the dunes are about 700 acres north and south. I've heard absolute silence in the woods around us. I heard my friends name being mimicked. She asked what it was I said say nothing let's go. There's other small things. Our property is definitely haunted things have gotten interesting since we started remodeling the house.
would like to hear some stories if you're wiling to share, i feel like sharing my experiences can be cathartic so me, this crazy stranger is always here to listen!
I know like damb dude are you okay? Bro has literally almost died like I think 17 times not just in these stories but I've heard his stories on other videos too

@@tonysburgers7223 it's a little annoying bc i don't wanna hear fake made up stories by the same person in multiple videos. ive heard their name in so many videos with their outlandish stories and encounters
@@ericami5642 Since you refuse to answer, I will assume that was an attempt at an argument, and will point out that the horses that were native to the North American continent, also went extinct around twelve thousand years ago. The Navajo have only been around for about 600 years, LONG after the American horses went extinct meaning their first exposure to horses would have been those brought over from Europe.
I saw the title and I got so excited! I don't scare easily and I know I will during this one! I'm going to check my doors and windows LOL I can't wait to watch it :-) good night :-) thank you for having a great voice, it sucks when the stories are awesome and the voice isn't soothing! You're doing great:-) Namaste :-)❤🎉
It's been a long hard day at work. Then I came out to a flat in the rain on my car with tires that I just bought new 2 days ago so yeah I need to lay back and relax while listening to this. Thanks for always keeping me chill and helping me relax and rest! ❤ love from North Carolina
That story with the dogs must've been written by a dog lover. That story made the Rake seem like a sucker. It has basically the same weapons as a dog but with arms and legs, but you're telling me your dogs were unscathed and just dominating the Rake.
hey. great video. i've been checking out a few of them from the day i first found your channel. lol im obsessed with your content and have gradually got my fiance into your videos as well, now we both cant get enough! thought i would also recommend another awesome resource i've been watching too. i found a bunch of amazing tips and hopefully your other followers find it useful too :)

This is the 1st time I've listened to your channel & I'm hooked already. As someone else in the comments mentioned, you speak in your normal voice which has a cool, calm, & collected cadence to it making you VERY easy to listen to. Unlike so many "creepy" channels where they go too far trying to sound scary or smart. I'm always thinking, "Bro, you really need to stop over, under, or mispronouncing standard English language words, what planet are you from & where did you learn to speak English, or have you ever listened to anyone else speak, like ever...EVER..watched TV, other channels? REALLY? Where the F did you learn to pronounce that word?" They sound 1/2 AI, 1/2 20 year idiot trying to come across as "intelligent".🙄 Your voice doesn't sound very old, but you do sound educated & are highly entertaining to listen to. Thank you for the time & energy required to create this incredible compilation. I'll be listening more after today. 🥰 From the beautiful PNW

I've gotten visits from Wendi's in my dreams before. After their visits regular food tastes like battery acid but you have to pull through the taste and eat normal food to quench the hunger/ thirst. After a month or two the bad taste left my mouth and I could taste food normally again.
Since watching all three horror in the high desert movies, i have been obsessed with Skinwalker stories! Also people commenting on the movie groups about their experiences living in the high desert! I live in the UK but i love reading about urban legends & folklore from different countries, but them movies creep me out, because its based on the conspiracy around the disappearance of Kenny Veach, other missing people & people’s scary stories about the high desert.
if they do go back he need's to make sure he doesn't take anyone with a heart condition and to only take friend's that can see properly, that way if anything goes wrong they'll all be able to escape, the first time it was lucky they did all escape real or not, I love listening to these stories as I crochet or spin yarn
So question for anyone who knows more then i does listening to these stories count as the same as saying skinwalker yourself is listening to these stories the same ? Like does it attract them ?
I love compilations. I just hit 'play' and listen for hours while I sit at my desk and work. Not many people get why I enjoy these stories so much.
I get it!
Maybe not many people you know, but alot of people DO understand. That's why so many of us come to listen to these stories.
I think the enjoyment comes from experiencing an adrenaline boost whilst in a totally safe environment. I love lying in bed at night and feeling my heart racing to a creepy story, knowing I'm tucked up in my house, {hopefully} hundreds of miles from the cryptids in these stories. For similar reasons & past experiences, I can't listen to tales about shadow people or haunted houses ... the "safe at home" element doesn't quite feel the same 😂
I love them because I too have experienced things and often wonder what else is out there

😂😂😂

They're not true tho

I love your stories and voice. I’m curious if you can add rain to the background
Some headphones you can add background noise too what your listening too
Ahhh I hate hate hate the rain background noises 😂 I find it so strange how something so little some people love and others hate so much hahaha
Moral of just about every story... if you see/hear something terrible in the forest, go home. Also, a tent is not a fortress. Go home.
Juicy munchie and crunchy , nice description 😂😂😂
If your dogs killed an unknown species why wouldn't you at least take a picture of the dead body or take a sample of it with you.
❤ awesome narrations thanks darkness ❤
Yo c Philly 100 how many encounters have you had mate? 😂
Love it and love your voice . Love the stories❤❤🇧🇻🇧🇻
These are my favorite!! ❤
How u gonna jump out of a steel truck into a tent?!! Id stay in the truck
Love your videos
Uwahhh more skinwalker stories yayy 😭😭 ain’t nobody who narrates them better!!!!
I wonder if that Navajo horse spirit is related to the Filipino creature known as Tikbalang. I mean since horses aren't even native to the Americas.

I don't know. I'm on the rake's side. Obey the "no dogs" sign next time.
They can try to take my pet, but my Cane Corso, Maximus, will make them into human confetti.
Of course I have 5 hours lol. This helps me sleep 😂
i am in leadville colorado camping listinging to these stories in the dark.
The first few stories are from the same person
Thank you DP, outdoors one of my favs. Werewolves and Dogman my #1

Omg, I don't know if this is new music or not, but I love it whatever the case! It's very creepy and scary!
THX YOU !
Why did you stop uploading episodes on the podcast????
Good old wendiboi's and skinnyboi's stories, easily my favorite horror stories along with dogman stories.

I am so sad it took me a year to see this, but I'm so happy that I found it right now❤❤❤❤❤
Simple words, but ty so much my favorite reader ❤️
I saw John Cena wearing Shia LaBeouf's skin
Human wearing human skins? Some old folklore claims this is a sign of a possible werewolf.

So question for anyone who knows more then i does listening to these stories count as the same as saying skinwalker yourself is listening to these stories the same ? Like does it attract them ?
I wonder that as well. May depend on your own energy, maybe not being afraid and worrying about attracting them helps? I don’t know
