By the end of the evening, perceptions of reality have been altered, relationships have been damaged, and the guests are forever changed.
Three people who were there tell the shocking, funny, and hauntingly tragic story of The Séance.

Walkthrough Haunted House

Is this house Haunted?

Walk_small Commentary: Halloween? Asking owners why they think their house is haunted, and concluding... Aired ATC 7-14-04

Abe Lincoln's Security Check

From WHRV | Part of the Halloween Haunts series | 02:02

Abe Lincoln's Security Check

Halloweenhauntspodcast_small A haunting tale of how one President continues to walk the halls of the White House, and how even from beyond the grave he continues to watch over his beloved country.

Showmen's Rest

From Shannon Heffernan | 05:13

A tragic train crash, a memorial to circus folk, and a graveyard haunted by elephants.

Thumbelephant_small Forest Park is the last stop on the Chicago?s blue line subway. Famous for its plethora of graveyards, this suburb is also the final stop for many Chicagoans. In a place with more dead residents than living ones, one particular grave site catches visitor?s attention: Showman?s Rest, a graveyard for circus performers from around the world. The story of the graveyard goes back to a tragic circus train wreck in 1918. Good for Haloween or Memorial Day (with some edits to tweak the theme).

Listening in the Dark

From Icebox Radio Theater | Part of the Listening in the Dark series | 54:45

Ready for some good old-fashioned scares this Halloween? Then the Icebox Radio Theater is ready to deliver with a trio stories designed to chill you even if you don't hail from icy climes as we invite you to join us for:

Listening in the Dark!

Listeningdark3_small

First, when a writer researching a haunted house is warned to beware of the murderer who once lived there, he never thinks to look for danger inside his own tape recorded notes.  The IBRT's Jeffrey Adams stars in the terrifying six-minute short, 'Background', honored with an honorable mention by the Ogle Awards for excellence in Fantasy and Horror Audio.
Next, a story from the frozen world of Northern Minnesota.  When a man goes to his fishing shack, unaware of the winter storm bearing down on him, it will take all of his strength and super natural forces to save him from 'The Thing on the Ice'.  This full-legnth tale of terror was the IBRT's top rated show of 2009.
And to top things off, with Halloween nearly over, Christmas cannot be far behind.  So we thought it fitting to wrap up our night of chills with the Ogle Award winning short, 'Up on the Rooftops which simply must be heard to be believed.
Altogether, this special runs a tight 54 minutes, and is designed for those chill-loving listeners looking to add some real scares to their Halloween.  Perfect for airing after the Trick-or-Treaters go to bed, or even - dare we suggest it - At Midnight!
