Guide to the Unknown

by Bloody FM

Creepy pop culture! The paranormal! Horror movies!  Every week, siblings Kristen and Will have light-hearted convos about dark stuff. Listen for urban legends, haunted places, and stupid humor from two millennials who've seen Scream one thousand times and love ghost stories (even though they're not always sure an actual ghost is involved).  It's audio comfort food for fellow horror nerds and curious scaredy cats alike.

"Guide to the Unknown" is the perfect blend of spooky stories and sibling humor! Kristen and Will make each episode feel like a fun chat with friends, covering everything from ghosts to urban legends with wit and real research. It’s the perfect mix of chills and laughs — highly recommend for anyone who loves a good mystery!

Wonder & Whimsy · Oct 2024

Guide to the Unknown is genuinely one of my favorite podcasts of all time. Will and Kristen’s banter reminds me of the kind of banter I might have with my friends. Phrases such as “wet puppetry” and “scarmuto” are now part of my regular lexicon and I cannot thank y'all enough. I come for the spooks and stay for the laughs. Keep up the great work yall!

caroline 1018 · Oct 2024

Laugh out loud funny! Brother & sister team are informative and hilarious. I’m not even a horror fan, but I love listening to them talk about anything. They have a wide range of topics. They are both natural storytellers, and crack each other up in the most endearing way. Please never stop the show! You both get through every day when I need an escape from reality!

Mysteries & True Crime! · Oct 2024

These siblings make me laugh so hard! I listen to them at the end of the day to relax and laugh my worries away. Love their chemistry and when they make fun of each other kills me! I also was obsessed with American dolls like Kristen growing up and dressed up as Laura Inguals Wilder as a child and relate to their nerdy personalities with childhood. It’s like hanging with two siblings who get me. Keep it up! You make people’s days better🥰
