The Witch in the Woods is a family friendly horror podcast. The story follows four children as they seek out the witch in the woods on a dare. They befriend her and her familiars: a fastidious dog named Barnaby and a snarky cat named Grimalkin. To prove to their friends that they’ve visited the witch, Barnaby and Grimalkin tell them supernatural stories and spine-chilling tales. As Season One unfolds, the children find themselves trapped in a scary story of their own when faced with a supernatural threat. Will they be able to count on the witch to help them? Or does she have dangerous motivations of her own?Aimed at a middle grade/young adult audience and featuring classic tales such as The Hook Hand, The Vanishing Hitchhiker and Bloody Mary, this podcast balances laugh out loud humor with gasp out loud spookiness. It will have you and your children wondering: “Am I brave enough to be listening to this?" And "When does the next episode come out?”

My kids and I LOVE this show. When we discovered it, we quickly adopted the practice of listening to at least one episode per car trip. It’s a real shame that there haven’t been new episodes in so long. The characters were well conceived and the stories were a smart choice of spooky but appropriate. The show even inspired our Halloween costumes last year! Highly recommended.
This podcast is just a delight. It really takes me back to my childhood and the stories we told at camp and slumber parties. And with the added main story, there is a great new sort of mystery that we get to see develop along the way, while still getting some familiar (and not so familiar) spine-tingling stories.
Thoroughly charming framing of some well known, and not so well known, traditional campfire stories, urban legends, and ghostly tales. Adults will delight in sharing these podcasts with the tweens in their lives, preferably with the lights out!
What a fun story! I was pulled in from the first moments, and now I can’t wait for the next episode to drop! The storyline with the kids is so interesting, and the scary stories in between definitely remind me of trying to scare one another around a campfire. This podcast is awesome!
