Hey, pssssst— if you are looking for something to listen while washing dishes, I've got a list just for you,
● If you're into dark academia but with more trauma, less studying, mysterious British guys who emotionally malfunction, and horror stories that make you say “mood”. Try The Magnus Archives.
● If you’re into small towns where everything’s a little off (actually, a lot), radio hosts who are way too calm about it, and bizarre, inexplicable occurrences that are totally fine, then you’ve found your new home in Welcome to Night Vale.
Tune in, stay safe (or don’t), and remember:
the sheriff's secret police definitely aren’t listening.
● If you’re into road trips that go way off the beaten path, chasing something you can’t explain, and a haunting mystery that’ll make you question every car that drives by—
then Alice Isn’t Dead is your new obsession.
Buckle up, drive safely, and the people you’re looking for might be looking for you, too.
● Does the phrase “amnesiac eldritch horror with a thesaurus” excite you?
It does? Oh, you little freak.
Then you definitely need to try Malevolent. Also there is whimpering, male whimpering.
● Ever wonder what happens when you trap a bunch of dysfunctional coworkers on a spaceship with limited resources, a suspicious number of near-death experiences, and one emotionally complex AI? You get Wolf 359.
It’s like The Office—but in space, with more trauma bonding and fewer HR rules. Next time you're on a spaceship… check the air supply.
● Are you looking for unsettling horror, a sentient city and unreliable reality? Are you looking for a monotonous narration? Are you looking for I'm in Eskew?
● Have you ever wondered if your summer camp was just a little... off? Like, dangerously quirky?
Maybe it has a nurse with questionable credentials, several mental disorders, and an unsettling love for worms?
No? You haven't? Weird. Camp Here and There.
● Hello from the Hallowoods. A forest where the trees remember. Where silence isn’t empty—it's waiting.
The world as you knew it ended here. But the story? That’s just beginning.
Listen closely. You might not like what you hear.
● There are things that lurk behind the veil of normal. Objects that don’t follow physics. Creatures that don’t obey God.
They find them. They contain them. They pretend the world is still safe.
You were never meant to know. SCP Foundation.
● If you’ve ever clipped through reality and landed in a buzzing yellow hallway that never ends...
Congratulations. You’re already a traveler.
This guide won’t save you. But it might tell you what not to look at.
The Traveler’s Guide to the Backrooms. Mind the damp. And the screaming.
● Now, if you’re like me and sometimes can’t handle complex storylines, freeze up every time a new character shows up, or feel too lazy to open the wiki just to remember who that guy from episode 3 was? I get it.
Try Tales from the Breakroom, Unexplained Encounters or anything from Eriecast Network.
Enjoy the horrors and forget when the episode ends.
● Do you know Japan holds events where people gather to exchange scary stories? Cool, right.
God, I wish my country did too, since it doesn't I guess I have to listen to Kaiden: Japanese Scary stories.
● Do you like magic, dragons, daring quests… and unexpected romantic tension?
The Two Princes is a fantasy audio drama where two rival princes set out to save their kingdoms—and accidentally fall in love along the way. It’s got sword fights, sass, heartfelt moments, and enough gay yearning to power a castle.
If you’ve ever wanted a fairy tale that’s charming, funny, and unapologetically queer—this is it. Adventure awaits. So does Prince Amir. (And he’s very handsome.)
● Love and Luck podcast is a sweet, queer love story told through voicemails—with a touch of magic. Set in Melbourne, it’s about building love, community, and kindness. Short episodes, big heart, no tragic endings. Just good vibes and quiet enchantment.
● Maybe you are not looking for fiction but real things, true crimes, perhaps that send chills down your spine thinking how can humans be like this? as cherry on top?
Look no further for you are looking for Crimehub: A true crime podcast.
● What if vampires were less “terrifying monster” and more “dramatic queer disaster”?
All Vampires Are Gay is a bold, funny, and emotional audio drama that reclaims vampire lore with sharp fangs and sharper wit.
