Episode 60: Listener Stories 4

Thu, 14 May 2026 00:01:00 -0600

This week we're diving into listener stories featuring phantom pets, aggressive spirits, and the kind of paranormal chaos that makes you reconsider every moment you ever thought you were alone in a restroom.

We'll hear about a possible ghost cat lurking around, a shadowy figure that may have physically thrown an object hard enough to injure someone, and a terrifying (maybe hilarious?) bathroom encounter involving a ghostly hand interrupting an already vulnerable moment.

Episode 59: Florida Man Chronicles - Dolphins, Missing Men, & Coral Castle

Thu, 07 May 2026 13:46:08 -0600

This week on Anxious At Bedtime, we enter the lawless dimension known only as...Florida.

First, we dive into the unbelievable story of a Florida man who vanished only to return claiming a dolphin named Geral kidnapped him and forced him to help build a hidden underground city beneath the ocean.

Then somehow things get even weirder as we investigate Coral Castle, the bizarre monument built by Edward Leedskalnin, a tiny man who somehow moved multi-ton stones completely aloe while claiming he knew the same secrets used to build the pyramids.

Anti-gravity? Ancient knowledge? Kidnapper dolphins? Just another Thursday in Florida.

Grab your tinfoil hats and emotional support alligators because tonight we're discussing the absolutely bizarre.

Episode 58: Ask Cash 1

Thu, 09 Apr 2026 15:53:11 -0600

In the very first Ask Cash episode, nothing is off limits. Are you planning a proposal? A demon summoning? Adopting a new pet? Join us as Cash weighs in on it all, in his own way.

Expect honesty, chaos, unexpected wisdom, and at least one moment where we both question why we thought this was a good idea.

It's funny. It's unfiltered. It's slightly concerning. And it's officially the start of Ask Cash. We're probably fine.

Episode 57: The Adam and Eve of Alien Abductions Pt 3

Thu, 26 Mar 2026 14:33:33 -0600

What happens after an encounter like that?

In the final part of our Betty and Barney Hill series, we follow the story beyond the night on the road and into the years that came after.

As the Hills tried to move forward, new questions began to take shape. Strange illnesses. Lingering fear. Additional sightings that made it harder and harder to dismiss what they experienced.

We explore the physical and emotional toll the encounter may have taken, including Barney's declining health and death, and the life Betty continued to live in the shadow of that night.

We also take a closer look at Betty's now famous star map, the growing attention surrounding their story, and how their private experience became one of the most widely known and debated abduction cases in history.

Because for the Hills, the story didn't end when they got home. And it didn't end when the memories came back. In many ways, it never ended at all.

Episode 56: The Adam and Eve of Alien Abductions Pt 2

Thu, 12 Mar 2026 00:00:00 -0600

In Part 2 of our Betty and Barney Hill series, we dive into the hypnosis sessions that uncovered the missing hours from that strange night in 1961. From the dinner party where the Hills first shared their story to the investigators who began asking questions, this is the chapter where they mystery deepens and the details of the encounter finally begin to emerge.

Wed, 25 Feb 2026 00:00:00 -0700

We're back.

After some time away, we're returning to the microphones with one of the most famous and unsettling stories in paranormal history. But before the lights in the sky, before the missing time, and before the hypnosis, there were just two people.

Betty and Barney Hill.

In part 1 of this two parter, we're going back to the beginning. We explore who Betty and Barney were, how they met, and the romantic road trip that would unknowingly cement them in paranormal history forever.

Episode 54: Black-Eyed Children

Thu, 30 Oct 2025 22:44:07 -0600

This Halloween, we're diving deep into one of the world's eeriest legends, black-eyed children. From chilling 1980s sightings to theories linking the phenomenon to tragic murders of the 1960s, these pale, black-eyed visitors have haunted the woods and internet forums alike for decades.

Join Monica and Cash as they unravel real reports, folklore roots, and paranormal theories behind this haunting mystery. Why do so many witnesses describe the same thing? And why do the stories always begin with a knock at the door?

It's our Halloween special, and yes, we're in costume for this one! You can watch the full video episode on YouTube to see our spooky fits and all the eerie expressions that didn't make it into the audio version.

Episode 53: Listener Stories 3

Fri, 24 Oct 2025 19:57:43 -0600

This Halloween season, we're tucking you in with true tales that'll make you sleep with one eye open. From a ghost that steals cabled and remotes to a mimic pretending to be someone's mom, these stories are the perfect mix of eerie, intimate, and unexplainable.

You'll hear from Nova, one of the original co-creators, about the night she saw a woman drenched in blood, and a listener whose wife somehow knew what happened in his recurring nightmares, but won't say how. Plus, a husband's chilling encounter on a dark rural road that might not have been entirely human and a ghost that seemingly enjoys a good rocking chair.

So grab a blanket and settle in, it's our October Listener Story special.

Episode 52: Haunted Objects For Sale 2

Thu, 16 Oct 2025 22:19:56 -0600

This week, Monica and Cash tumble down the haunted rabbit hole of online listings for cursed and possessed objects, but things get weird fast. One listing vanished right in the middle of recording. One bear named Fanny just wants to play video games. A clown doll refuses to reveal the spirit inside it. And one mysterious doll has Monica eerily close to clicking "Buy Now."

Join us as we explore the scary, the absurd, and the possibly possessed corners of the internet, where every "pre-loved" item might just love you back a little too much.

Episode 51: Whispers from the Ranch

Thu, 09 Oct 2025 18:12:48 -0600

This week, we take you to one of Idaho's most haunted historic sites, Stricker Ranch. Once a lonely stop on the Oregon Trail and now home to more than just memories. Armed with our mics, curiosity, and the Ghost Tube app, we revisit our past ghost hunts at the ranch. What started as a calm history chat turned into something else entirely... Let's just say, by the end, we didn't end the episode, the ghosts did. And Monica almost peed her pants.

Episode 50: Skybound Secrets

Thu, 02 Oct 2025 14:01:39 -0600

From the deserts of Arizona to the jungles of Papua New Guinea, reports of giant winged creatures refuse to die. Are modern pterodactyls gliding through our skies, or are these sightings just misidentified birds and folklore reborn? We dive into the legends, pterosaur eyewitness accounts, and mysteries that keep the skies alive with speculation.

Episode 49: Phantom Clowns

Wed, 17 Sep 2025 16:16:32 -0600

*Contains spoilers for the movie Clown in a Cornfield

In this episode we're diving into one of the creepiest pieces of American folklore: the phantom clown sightings. From the terrifying reports of clowns trying to lure kids into vans in 1981, to the strange echoes in 1991, these eerie encounters blur the line between urban legend, mass hysteria, and something much stranger lurking just out of sight.

We'll unpack the history of clown panics, explore how these sightings connect to the mysterious "phantom clown" phenomenon, and even draw some chilling parallels with Clowns in a Cornfield. (Yes, we finally got to talk about it, technical issues be damned.)

Are these just trick of fear and imagination, or do phantom clowns belong alongside cryptids and ghosts in the catalog of things that go bump in the night?

Wed, 03 Sep 2025 16:29:12 -0600

We finally visited Zak Bagans' Haunted Museum in Las Vegas, and we have thoughts. In this episode, we break down our entire experience, from the objects and atmosphere to the ghostly encounter (just one!) and whether it lived up to the hype. We share the good, the bad, and the repulsive. We're being brutally honest about it all. Haunted or hype? Let's talk about it.

Episode 47: What The Mountain Unleashed

Wed, 27 Aug 2025 00:01:00 -0600

The ash has barely settled from Part 1's dive into the 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens, but the story isn't finished yet. Because some people believe the mountain didn't just unleash fire and destruction... it unleashed something alive.

In this episode, we meet the legendary Batsquatch, a winged cryptid with glowing red eyes, blue fur, and a knack for terrifying unlucky hikers and pilots. We'll dig into reported sightings, the bizarre details that don't quite add up, and how this monster managed to flap its way into modern pop culture with a hazy IPA brewed in its honor.

Episode 46: The Mountain Is Unleashed

Wed, 13 Aug 2025 14:34:05 -0600

On May 18, 1980, Mount St. Helens unleashed the most catastrophic volcanic eruption in U.S. history. In this first part of our two-part series, we explore the mountain's eerie lore, the warning signs no one could ignore, and the morning when an entire face of the volcano collapsed in the largest landslide ever recorded. We'll take you inside the chaos, destruction, and four tragic deaths that became part of the mountain's story. Next week, we'll trade geology for the bizarre as we dive into a cryptid that was came from the eruption.

Episode 44: Listener Stories 2

Sat, 19 Jul 2025 16:30:30 -0600

First of all,

Baddies > Haggies.

In this chilling installment of listener stories, we bring you five true tales from people just like you, who encountered the paranormal and lived to tell the tale about it (barely).

First, a mysterious voice calls out at just the right moment, saving one listener from what could've been a deadly fall. Then, an intimate evening is rudely interrupted by an uninvited chaperone...who doesn't take the hint and follows the author home. We also hear from a renter who unknowingly moved into a house haunted by the dark aftermath of a Ouija session gone wrong.

A parent shares the story of their child, who seems to have a rare and eerie gift: the ability to see other people's trauma in a ghostly form. And finally, a woman's terrifying sleep paralysis experience leaves us wondering if what happened in the night was truly just a dream... or something far more real.

Turn out the lights, grab a blanket, and remember, we're probably fine.

Fri, 11 Jul 2025 22:38:44 -0600

What do you get when you mix a robotic hamster-owl, a made-up language, and a government ban? A Furby. In this episode, Monica and Cash dig into the bizarre and unsettling history of everyone's favorite cursed childhood toy. From real life horror stories and tech conspiracy theories to the NSA's paranoia and a possible paranormal connection, we ask: were Furbys haunted...or something worse?

Episode 42: What Are You Waiting For

Thu, 03 Jul 2025 16:37:16 -0600

In this killer-good episode of Anxious At Bedtime, Monica and Cash dive into the 1997 teen slasher classic I Know What You Did Last Summer. Monica gives a dramatic (and slightly unhinged) retelling of the plot while Cash adds his signature commentary and deep sighs.

We break down everything from the iconic killer's rain slicker to the movie's biggest scares, and of course, rate it on our Anxious Scale, from "We're Fine" to "Turn The Fucking Lights On" (1 to 10 lights, naturally).

You'll also hear some behind-the-scenes fun facts and our personal survival kits- three things we'd take into the movie world if we had to face off with a hook-wielding murderer.

Lock your doors, dim the lights (or don't), and press play, because someone knows what you did last summer.

Episode 40: Dudleytown

Fri, 20 Jun 2025 11:53:06 -0600

Nestled deep in the woods of Connecticut lies the ghost town of Dudleytown, a place so steeped in darkness that it's been erased from maps and sealed off from the public. Was it doomed by a centuries-old curse, plagued by madness and death, or simply swallowed by the forest itself?

It it all just legend? Or is something truly watching from the trees?

Episode 39: Beavers With Parachutes

Thu, 12 Jun 2025 00:12:04 -0600

In one of the most delightfully unhinged chapters of American wildlife history, Idaho once parachuted live beavers into the wilderness. Yes, actual beavers. With parachutes.

In this mini episode, we dive into the true story of how post-WWII suburbia clashed with beaver behavior, the legend of Elmo Heter (Idaho Fish and Game's most chaotic genius), and how one brave rodent named Geronimo became the world's first skydiving beaver.

We laugh a lot, because it's truly absurd, but we also unpack the ecological brilliance behind these fluffy little ecosystem engineers and why we should all respect the beaver hustle.

Disclaimer: No, we don't condone throwing animals out of planes, parachute or not. This was a real program in the 1940s, and thankfully, wildlife relocation has come a long way since then.

Wed, 28 May 2025 00:01:00 -0600

We're back! This special mini episode marks our return, and though it's shorter than usual, it's filled with something we all need right now: hope. Join us as we explore the mysterious and miraculous stories of the Butterfly People, angelic figures reported by survivors of the devastating Joplin tornado. Whether you believe in miracles or just need a reason to look for light in the rubble, this one's for you.

This episode is lovingly dedicated to Katt Morris, Cash's mom. May she rest gently and be forever remembered.

We would also like to make a correction. In the episode, Monica says the tornado was an E5. It was an EF5.

Important Update from Cash & Monica

Mon, 05 May 2025 20:08:54 -0600

We're heartbroken to share that Cash's mom is missing. She left her home around 1am without her phone, wallet, medications, or cane, and hasn't been seen since. We've shared all the missing person information on our social medias. If you're able to share or keep an eye out, it means the world.

Thank you for understanding. We love you. We'll be back when we can.

Episode 36: Don't Forget To Say Goodbye

Thu, 01 May 2025 22:30:57 -0600

Is it just a game... or a gateway? In this episode of Anxious At Bedtime, we had our ChatGPT conjure eight terrifying tales of Ouija board encounters - each one darker, stranger, and more unsettling than the last. From cursed packages to whispering walls, nothing is off-limits once the planchette starts to move. So, light a candle, hold your breath, and don't forget to say goodbye. Because you never know who's listening.

Wed, 23 Apr 2025 17:28:40 -0600

In this chilling episode of our Ouija series, we're diving into the real stories - the ones that kept people awake at night long after the board was packed away. These aren't urban legends. These are firsthand accounts of Ouija board sessions that went way too far, encounters with entities that didn't leave when the game ended, and the lingering effects that followed. From shadowy figures to ominous messages that came true, these tales might make you think twice before asking, "Is anyone there?" Spoiler alert, someone usually is.

We'll walk you through how to mentally and energetically protect yourself, and cleanse your space (and the board), and the worse places to break out the planchette. Plus, we get into the fascinating, and slightly chaotic, Blindfold Theory - is your subconscious the one spelling out messages, or is something else moving the planchette? Light a candle (or don't, idk), don't forget to say goodbye, and remember... we're probably fine.

We'll tell you how the mysterious death of Ouija board mogul William Fuld was blamed on the board itself - and how its co-creator, Helen Peters Nosworthy went from being one of the board's biggest supporters to warning people of its powers. Grab your favorite blanket, light a candle, and remember: we're probably fine.

But for all the bizarre and horrifying treatments, some medical experts of the past were surprisingly close to real breakthroughs, despite having no idea how things actually worked. Were they just lucky, or was there something eerily intuitive about their methods? Join us as we explore the fine line between medical madness and accidental genius.
