Like listening to an old friend
I’ve found that podcasts are the best way for someone like me to enjoy a good horror story. That being said, I struggle to find a good horror podcast. Out of desperation one day I started searching for “Japanese horror podcasts” hoping for something based on Japanese mythology and lore, and what do you know? This was one of the first things that popped up! I know it’s not strictly “horror stories”, but when I played the first episode I lost myself in the sounds of the ocean waves and Terrie’s soothing voice. I felt like I was listening to an old friend. Next thing I knew I was 40 episodes in and a new subscriber to her Patreon page. If you are looking for a podcast that takes you to Japan and teaches you about it’s interesting language, history and lore as well as some of its creepier tales, then you’ve found the right podcast!
