[@MrTheoreoguy]

I love these long videos. You never know what kind of stories you're going to get- true crime, first person perspective, history, etc.

[@Phoenix-mh5eo]

Man I'd seen that Sanders family story on I Survived and as soon as I started to hear the story my eyes started welling up. Breaks my heart. What an absolutely heroic father. RIP Jim Sanders, you are surely missed by your family.

[@elle_heat]

Time to being lulled to sleep by spookiness combined with Joel's soothing voice. 💚

[@StarOfArtemis]

I do the same, just occasionally even though I’m totally tuned out I’m jerked awake by some horrifying story. They’re always creepy, but some are straight up nightmare fuel

[@susanhowe163]

😊For whatever reason I can't leave a comment on this channel. I didn't get the big bump nor anything else like that. All I need to say is PLEASE LOSE THE BACKGROUND SOUND. PLEASE 🙏 🙏! I LOVE ❤️ ❤ YOUR CHANNEL AND YOUR STORIES ARE REALLY AWESOME BUT THE BANK NEEDS TO GO.. I USED TO WEAR MY HEAD PHONES WHILE I WORK AND I CAN'T DO THAT WHEN THE SOUNDS ARE ON.

Joel has one of the best narrating voices ever.❤ I have 3 channels I listen to regularly with great narrators. This is by far my favorite. I have had people suggest other channels, but the way they read is like nails on a chalkboard.

[@ZombieSazza]

The rabbit mask r@pist story is intense, and honestly I’m glad OP and her mother got some closure, and he ultimately got karma. Doomed to a fleshy prison where he struggles to survive, fully aware but unable to do anything, the perfect hell for monsters like him.

[@g1rl_veteran]

Definitely

[@TeddyLovesAxl]

💯 🎯

[@thenothing2786]

Oh my goodness that was an INCREDIBLE story. It should be a movie. I wouldn’t want to drudge up the emotional destress but an artistic interpretation of that story could have a powerful impact on people who know victims that have been through similar traumatic events. That’s why I am a creator. Artistry for the sake of empathy.

[@jaimedreamsx]

If only it was reserved just for monsters like him, but unfortunately innocent people suffer from it too

[@enslaved1]

[@shawnbbunbbbybbb3942]

In the story about the cop that robbed the guy first mistake never file a complaint especially not at his own precinct. Find out the number for internal affairs and go through them it’s probably still risky but definitely better then just filing a complaint with cops that r gonna go straight to him and tell him and protect him

[@mayagreenwald293]

The one about the horrible boy who abused his parents and animals was awful. Like why didn’t anyone do anything to help the poor parents. like a bunch of people knew he was abusive. I don’t know how he was able to get away with that so long.

[@darkangelprincess101]

I was pregnant with my first child when I first heard stories of people luring or kidnapping pregnant women just to steal their unborn baby. In one of those stories the mom was lucky to survive and eventually got her baby back. But I'm overly paranoid and regret watching those videos as it gave me a new fear

[@fredthechihuahua]

This is my number 1 of 2 top story channels, amongst the dozen or so I follow. I'm sure most of y'all follow the same ones as me, so there's no need to cross advertise. Love the work you do to produce content that we can listen to, man. ❤

[@ollivergalaxy6785]

Hell yeah, I love these. I've been watching older ones the past couple weeks so this is great

[@keepfloatingg]

Love listening to these at work

[@littlewitchleo]

Am I the only one who back in elementary school when it was time for you’re classroom to go to the library for reading time or whatever would chose a audio book and just sit on a bean bag and listen to the story with headphones in ( big wired headphones since it was the late 90s early 2000s lol )? Listening to these reminds me of back at those times and it’s a comforting feeling

[@DynamicOwl13]

I didn't have that option back in the 90s but I did try to narrate my goosebumps books on a recorder lol

I like it when he reads the real third-person stories (like the first one in this video). I don't like the first-person stories as much because most of them seem to be from pretentious Karens making up stories about walking down the street and being looked at the wrong way and then feeling "violated' for the rest of their lives (pathetic)

[@vfa9761]

​​@@th-sd6niou sound bitter and I hope you heal

[@slicedbread5692]

​​@@th-sd6ni have been saying this for a long time. I have posted the same comment basically word for word. I can't stand the stories like "I was on the bus and a big scary man was also on the bus and he was wearing a scary black hoodie. I put my keys in my hand cuz I was gonna gouge his eyes out. He got off the bus 15 stops before me, but I don't know what his intentions were. My blood ran cold." Thankfully I've been hearing less and less of those. The actual verifiably true stories about real people are the best.

[@Unstrict]

​@vfa9761 how is it bitter to not want to hear the same thing over and over again lol. Ive been listening to these since about 2015 and it's easier to pick out unique stories

Best Narrator on the Planet.

[@jeannel2515]

I am a long-time subscriber and absolutely love your narrations. I just wanted to give you the correct pronunciation of two words from two separate stories. The Wisconsin town of Keshena, where the drug-laced Halloween candy showed up, is pronounced Kuh-shee-nuh. In the Le Loyon story, the French word 'Le' is pronounced Luh, not Lay. This is not to be confused with La, which is exactly as it sounds. Le is the French masculine for 'the', and La the feminine. When you pronounce it Lay, that is actually Les, which is the plural of Le or La. I'm not trying to be a jerk with this comment, I'm just giving a helpful hint for the future. Keep up the awesome narrations, and I look forward to the next episode .

[@ValkyrieofNOLA]

I follow a select few horror narrators, and you are by far one of the absolute best! The quality of your voice, the storytelling skills and the authenticity of the characters makes you stand out from most others!

Beautiful illustration of the child holding the makeshift flashlight

[@gebruederflausch]

For the case of Karina Robertson... It's really weird for the prosecutors to say it falls under that state law & that there's no way to know if the child was born dead or alive. 1st, the child was born via C section, only that it wasn't done by doctors. 2nd, they can check the child's lungs. If there's air, then the child did breathe after being born. Therefore, that baby should be considered human. The suspect's intent were both to make the mom give birth & to kill her at the same time. Weak & lazy prosecutors! If she was charged with the death of that baby, it is sureball death penalty & the family will get the justice they truly deserve. Also, this story collection is my top 1 favorite. 🖤💀🖤
