What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

This is a great podcast especially to binge around Halloween or Fall/Autumn. While the intros are part of the artististry, the Ads are way too many, way too damaging to the listening experience. Maybe its meant to get people to pay, since the ads pay for free content, but they could at least match the show theme, otherwise they are way too many, too loud too distracting.

PoisonPenLetter · Sep 2026

Every single episode is as good as the next. Glynn Washington is an epic storyteller, and his voice makes this podcast so much fun! It’s vulnerable, spooky, amazing, and fascinating. The best thing ever is when I open up my podcast app and see a new episode of Spooked! Love love love the stories-Thank you!!!! It feels like a gift to have such an incredible show to listen to when you want to get lost a little scared, and prompted to think about the world in a much more curious way.

Sebchick · Sep 2026

Glynn’s beautiful, heartfelt storytelling at the beginning always sets the perfect vibe for this, sometimes legit terrifying, other times very funny, always intriguing, paranormal lore. Been a huge fan for years and I’ll never stop listening! Thank you for keeping the mystery alive ✨

justineverigin · Sep 2026

Always excited when a new episode hits my feed. The first person narrative is engaging and lends an extra sense of spookiness. But… as good as the stories are, Glynn’s intros and outros are the very best!

Snoslyde · Jul 2026

Long time listener and lover of this podcast. But the amount of ads has quadrupled. The entire episode is almost all ads. Also, I always fast forward through Glens ramblings, but now I’m spending more than half the episode skipping ads as well. It’s just not enjoyable anymore. Also can anyone actually explain Glens rambles? They never make any sense. They don’t apply to the episode or anything. Theyre not even stories you can follow. It’s literally a ramble.

Futurama7890 · Aug 2026

I’ve been listening to the podcast for about two years now and when I discovered it, I started listening from the beginning - pretty much binge it. The podcast started great but as time went by these intros have gone completely bananas… they are too long, some times on topic some times not, it feels like the creators are just trying to fill in time… I have stopped listening to the show all together because I had to spend too much time fast forwarding each episode to get to the story… too bad this show has changes so much, it used to be really good!
