Anything Ghost is a podcast (audio show) where the host, Lex Wahl, shares listener submitted personal paranormal experiences (ghost stories). Lex then adds his original background music and effects to enhance to the creepiness of the listening experience.
Anything Ghost was the first of the personal-ghost-story audio shows when it hit the podcast scene in January of 2006—and it hasn’t stopped since. Over the years, Anything Ghost has developed a large dedicated audience…an audience for which, Anything Ghost takes full responsibility for the bedside lamp that’s left on.
These tales of supernatural suspense by Soren Narnia adhere to the most primal element of storytelling: a single human voice describing events exactly as it experienced them. The stories, stripped of even proper titles, spill forward as taut, uninterrupted confessions. Knifepoint Horror leaves nothing but the story’s riveting spine to compel and chill you to the core.
This horror podcast is intended to frighten and disturb you. The stories herein may contain explicit language and graphic themes that are not suitable for people under the age of 16.

The Stanford Storytelling Project is an arts program at Stanford University that explores how we live in and through stories and, even more importantly, how to deepen our lives through our own storytelling. Our mission is to promote the transformative nature of traditional and modern oral storytelling, from Lakota tales to Radiolab, and empower students to create and perform their own stories. The project sponsors courses, workshops, live events, and grants. In 2012, we created a new radio show, State of the Human, where we share stories that deepen our understanding of single, common human experiences—fighting, giving, lying, resilience—all drawn from the experiences and research of the Stanford community. Tune in every Wednesday at 5pm on 90.1 KZSU or download our podcast on iTunes.

True Story is a secret society of anonymous storytellers. In living rooms, attics, and vacant lots, on rooftops and around fires, people are gathering to tell each other stories from their lives.
Recordings from the True Story underground are more raw and revealing than you’ll find anywhere else. Since 2012, we’ve published the best of these on our podcast and on public radio.
