Fear Daily

by Brennan Storr & Brandon Schexnayder

Fear Daily takes you into the shadows of the past, unearthing the 1990's most terrifying tales of monsters, madness, and life after death. Join us as we explore the ghost stories and supernatural encounters left on an old online bulletin board that continues to operate somewhere in an unknown part of the Pennsylvania Rust Belt - a time capsule of society's greatest fears. Written by Brennan Storr, creator of The Ghost Story Guys, and hosted by Brandon Schexnayder, creator of Southern Gothic... Fear Daily is guaranteed to be the stuff of nightmares.

What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Fear Daily has been growing on me. The quality of the stories and narration. Then along comes Dinner Party | Darlene. All I can say is wow, and thanks. I have replayed it three times already. Impressive. You skillfully communicate a lot of the scary in relatively short stories.

Steve in Santa Rosa · Jul 2025

These folks are absolutely incredible! Honestly, in the first few episodes, I genuinely thought the whole show was real 🤦‍♂️. The character development is so rich, and the subtle details in their interactions really draw you deep into the world of the story. It’s those small, authentic moments between characters that make it so immersive and believable.

I love the bite-size stories provided here- the perfect length to listen while I get ready for work or cook dinner. And it’s not just gory, horror- Making Friends ended in the most adorable thing ever 🥰

Kooks41011 · Mar 2025

I’ll admit I’m binge listening, so the common threads of the writing are more apparent than they would be otherwise, and the fact that the narrator is a man does impact this, but it’s vaguely misogynistic. Not always and not every time, but enough that, as a woman, I notice. Men treat women poorly and the tone is less than current (which I guess could be argued fits the 90’s feel). I would enjoy it more if the perspectives were more diverse and women were treated as equals and less as tropes. Otherwise, this podcast has some written gems and is amazing for updating everyday.
