I enjoy the podcast, but I prefer Derek’s more regular voice: it feels like I’m listening to Batman. The stories are creepy and engaging enough being told in a more natural voice. It’s almost comical now and it feels like he’s trying WAAY too hard. I do enjoy the podcast and think the merch is...Read full review »

One of the best podcasts ever! Real stories from REAL PEOPLE. It’s what I been craving and searching for a long time!

This is by far one of the best Paranormal shows I listen to. Derek is a fantastic host, I listen as I work and everything I have listened to so far is so interesting, I love the way the shows are put together and the Hometown Specials are my favourite. Keep up the great work Derek! From the UK ;)

Cool stories called in by listeners, Derek gives his thoughts and commentary, sometimes with news clips involving the story itself, something similar, or a possible explanation. I love listening while I’m at work or in the car.

People telling their own stories are always more spooky and interesting. Love this podcast!

So professionally done. Easy to listen too. Love it

I absolutely love the format of this show. It’s extremely well produced too. The hour + long episodes always fly by.

My absolute favorite cryptid podcast. Derek and his team have knocked it out of the park with this show. Reminds me of when I was a kid listening to Coast to Coast AM. Keep up the great work.

Great and varied content. Every podcast is meaty and I love that it’s as wide as it is deep. Derrick’s voice is perfection and he must spend a lot of time researching to offer possible explanations or substantiation of listener contributions. Bravo!

Thank you for amazing content! You do such a good job! Your voice it perfect for this. Just wanted to let you know it’s 10/10

I am so glad I found this! If you love hearing real life stories about everyday people’s eerie and unusual encounters with the paranormal, Sasquatch and UFO’s then this is definitely for you. I love the format with people calling in their stories and the host’s narration really sets the tone....Read full review »
I am the real Brigit via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 05/12/23
I just listened to the latest Mirrored Man Special Part 2 episode … not trying to sound like a fanboy but, holy s#!+ that was a complete package! Epic listener calls aside, I think the MAU team has cranked it up a few notches! I’ve actually stopped listening to other podcasts because they...Read full review »

This podcast is a favorite! I discovered it fairly recently, so I’m enjoying bingeing episodes. I love listening to people’s experiences.
Mbrohms via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/11/23
Love this podcast! It’s great hearing the first hand accounts of the spooky stories. Derek’s voice and cadence really give the show a dramatic eeriness that lends to the spookiness of the show. I enjoy the fact that he makes a family friendly show the kiddos can listen too. Highly recommend to...Read full review »

I’ve been listening from the beginning and I love it
Jeeze12345 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/02/23
Derek has a unique style, presentation, and quality that cannot be duplicated, puts me in mind of Robert Stack in the original Unsolved Mysteries. To hear the encounters from the real people is genuine and also unsettling when you sometimes hear the fear in their voice, and that’s what also...Read full review »

Absolutely love this podcast. I started with the new ones, listened to a few and decided to start at the beginning. I’m caught up already, listening all day at work, every day. I love the newer fried vocal effect and slower cadence of Derek’s voice (compared to earlier seasons), it really...Read full review »

MAU IS the best podcast … period . Another amazing episode from MAU. You don’t have to be a “ Believer “ just listen once and I’m pretty sure you will be hooked . Derek would never call the caller a lier , people call in and record the encounter. Then Derek will discuss what other explanations...Read full review »

This is my go to paranormal podcast
falileaf via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 04/25/23
I tried. I really tried. Nothing wrong with the content or the stories from call-ins. I listened to four different episodes spread seasons apart in the hopes the audio would get better, but every episode heavily features the host making horrible noises with his mouth that the mics pick up way too...Read full review »

While driving from the Hudson Valley to Brooklyn I needed something spooky to listen to that would compliment the early morning drive. Monsters Among Us has a fun take on paranormal and bizarre accounts from around the states. Host Derek Hayes does a great job with the format and flow. I can’t...Read full review »

This is a great podcast. Very entertaining and family friendly.
skullymomma via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/20/23
Great podcast I enjoy his format, keep up the good work Dereck. I was watching the comedian Matt Rife and he was wearing a monsters among us tee shirt, you must be doing something right if a famous comedian is wearing your merch on stage.
Biscotti454 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/16/23
Great format, logical reasoning when examining these reports. Keep up the good work!
Legends of Mordor via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/14/23
So happy that I found this. The format is great and the callers are all “handled with care” to promote a stimulating and welcoming environment. For someone who has had spooky events their entire life and have always thirsted for others’ experiences, this show is a healthy addiction. Keep up the...Read full review »
GermanTanks via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/14/23
This show is entertaining yet oddly calming. Love the stories and “call-in show vibe”. If Unsolved Mysteries and Coast to Coast created a love child, it would be MAU. If I may, I’d like to give an episode theme suggestion… Guardian Angels. They’re not monsters, but it might suit the right...Read full review »

The best podcast I listen to on loop all the time … love it
malinta62 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/06/23
I like the stories but when he jumps back on to put in his two cents I always have to turn the volume down, feel like he could do a little more volume balancing.
viola$13 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/31/23
Well…I have to say I’m very impressed & I’ve been listening nonstop since I found it! I found your podcast about a week ago and I’m already on season 4! I listen during the day while “working”(at home) I listen in bed while I fall asleep… while I walk my dog… basically I’m hooked like you...Read full review »

LOVE LOVE LOVE everything about this show! From the audio, to the format of callers telling their own story, to the type of content, I could go on and on. Not sure how I even came across this podcast but I’m so glad I did! I listen to it daily and am a Patreon subscriber! Every episode leaves me...Read full review »
aksbscwywo via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/29/23
This is my favorite spooky podcast and I look forward to it every week. My only criticism is that the host complains so much about needing time off and being overworked. Are we supposed to feel guilty for listening? I’m not sure what his intentions are there.
Longdog_82 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/29/23
This is such a fun podcast to listen to and enjoy the stories!
@m4gunny_ via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/23/23
I did like this podcast but the smart mouth host didn’t like that I called the caller crazy for believing in little green men.Rehab is what they need.🤮👿👎one star he gets. Mar 21,2023.
snackapoo via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/21/23
This is a great podcast! There’s always so much variety but Derek does a great job bringing a theme to the shows. There is a lot of trust here which says a lot seeing as how not everyone is open to the paranormal. I love to hear about the research that happens behind the scenes as Derek tries to...Read full review »

What happened? I look forward to a new show every Thursday but………where did you go?
06hog via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/16/23
I enjoy the format of the show. Derek does a great job handling the calls. I’m grateful the podcast exists. I’d give it 5 stars if the accompanying audio effects were left out (or at least diminished significantly) when a caller submits their story. These audio effects befuddle the content. It is...Read full review »
Cersanthemum via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/16/23
Derek Hayes has the best suiting voice for this genre of podcast, having people call up and tell their stories first hand and even reading some out for the people who don’t like to call. The way he sets his episodes up and narrates everything is hands down perfect. If you read this review you...Read full review »
ShannonMitra via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 03/13/23
In my top podcasts if this category. The host does a fantastic job generating thrill drawing in the audience to the stories. The editing is the perfect amount, stories are hand selected and I really appreciate the rational explanations possible behind the callers calls. Some may be explainable,...Read full review »

I am extremely picky about podcast content, host voice and variety. This hits all those and it helps me make it through a long work day. I absolutely love it and I highly recommend giving it a listen! -ldasch from IL

ChristopherGibson via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/04/23
Hear me out, I listen to a lot of podcasts, and this one is probably in my top 3. People call in, share creepy stories from around the world, and some stories are just jaw dropping. 10/10 podcast. Only podcast that can maybe top it is the Confessionals.

Love this podcast! Im also caught up and I’m sad I won’t be able to binge anymore, keep up the great work MAU team! 👽👻
