What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

This podcast handles the cases with the utmost care and it is apparent that they earn the trust of the people they visit but also their listeners. The attempts to logically explain things is very appreciated. Not to mention the hosts voice is perfect for podcasts.

anneoftheshy · Dec 2024

Engaging with the subject matter with a skeptical but naturally curious eye, this pod delivers on both believability but also charm. The host’s inherent sense of wonder and respect for the material shines through with both him and his team. An education both on various spiritual and religious practices as well as downright fascinating (and well-told) extensively researched history appears in nearly all episodes. Judicious editing and scoring makes sure no episode is ever filler and will keep you riveted until the end. Would that all ghost podcasts be this good!

M. Lives · Dec 2024

The Night Owl is truly the gold standard for paranormal podcasts. Its investigations are fascinating (and often mind-blowing), however Stephen maintains an admirably honest and objective journalistic approach. High production values make for a vivid, compelling listener experience….but above all, Stephen’s storytelling is absolutely spellbinding!!! Hands down it’s the best writing (and delivery) in the paranormal arena, and right up there with the best of any podcast genre.

Pat in L.A. · Nov 2024

Exceptional production value and solid journalism. I found this podcast around Halloween of 2023, when I was in the mood for something spooky but not hokey, overly dramatic, or full of the hosts bantering (the worst!) and I wasn’t disappointed! I tore through all the episodes in no time. My favorite episodes were with Sara. But the other mediums do a good job. Like everyone else, The only ‘con’ to this series is that Stephen can’t churn out the episodes fast enough! My favorites have been the restaurants, bars, and Pioneer Farms was probably my favorite! I like hearing the experiences of lots of different people and the history of the places. I live in Ohio but have been to Austin a few times. This show makes me want to go back for a visit soon! Thanks Stephen and crew!
