[@agent3557]

Already did ;) I love the idea of a night drive- night car rides have always put me to sleep - always been a lullaby so this is perfect for me ;)

[@alphooey]

“The Tall Man” was freaking scary. The whole imagery terrifying.

[@TheTapeLibrary]

I know right?! That one got me too

[@alg8181]

My uncle used to listen to Art Bell when I was a child, so I’m really looking forward to “night drive”. It will be awesome to listen to your new channel with my uncle, who I listened to Art Bell with all those years ago!

[@TheTapeLibrary]

I love this, hopefully you both enjoy it

[@sarahoshea9603]

I'm also always trying to full that Art Bell sized hole. They've got episodes of C2C, Midnight in the Desert etc. Here on KZbin but it's not the same. I've heard the good ones 100x Tape Library is about halfway there. Belief Hole is pretty close. This rly is good for napping tho, and I loved the one with the matching visuals of a car radio or somesuch

[@danieljohnson5595]

Art was the best!!!

Night Drive. Great name for the new channel. Thank God it's finally here! I have been squirming with anticipation ever since you first hinted about something you were working on in reply to a comment I had made. I absolutely love listening to the listener stories at bedtime because they're perfect for falling asleep to. Not because they are boring or anything, it's just because the stories are usually short and quick to the point so you don't really need to stay awake to hear what happens at the end of the video. I especially love the way the way you frame the stories with another sort of story. For instance, there was the episode where we were supposed to be on a train, in a compartment with a paranormal investigator and they are the one narrating the stories. Don't get me wrong, I love the full deep dive episodes too. I'm just excited because anything that means more content from this amazing channel is bloody great in my book. Thank you for all the extra work you are putting in just to entertain us all. All the best, Dude.

[@c.r.k.7162]

[@speedfreakjive8843]

Well-said. I wish the Tape Library all the success and happiness. Great content!!!😊

[@annak9646]

I’ve seen that tall man in Sutton park , Birmingham West Midlands by a lake - he was crouching looking down at something, I don’t know what and didn’t see me but I remember walking slowly and carefully so as not to break any twigs then just started running as soon as I could see the road again

[@AntMikMorado]

Smart...

[@beachcomberbob3496]

It's weird how parklands (here in the UK at least) have bizarre phenomena. Cannock Chase is another hotspot, and Cannon Hill Park in Edgbaston. It's like these large green areas have been left undeveloped for a reason. Maybe our forebears knew something we don't?

[@Tom-sd9jb]

The home counties definitely have some areas that have some sort of supernatural presence. It is weird. The woods of Ashridge estate in Hertfordshire has a couple of spots that creep me out even during the day. And the woods on the hills from Ivinghoe beacon to above Pitstone quarry are especially "off". Lots of history around that spot. I'd recommend a trip that way if you live close by!

[@Tom-sd9jb]

There is something about the midlands, dude. Rented a house in Newcastle-under-Lyme as a student and had a terrifying and memorable experience there. I might submit it to the channel.

[@mundoglory7071]

Thats interesting, I grew up in Sutton Coldfield, never heard any ghost or strange stories about Sutton Park. However I heard about a headless ghost somewhere down near New Hall hotel

[@shadowslayer2929]

11:45 There was a crooked man And he walked a crooked mile He found crooked sixpence And a crooked stile He bought a crooked cat Which caught a crooked mouse And they all lived together In a crooked little house

[@alphooey]

I’d forgotten that “nursery rhyme”. One of my Mum’s favourites. It’s weird what we tell our kids. Must admit I - kind of sadly - I didn’t continue the tradition of those nursery rhymes with my children.

[@N0tyoursunfl0wer]

So good, like always! Thank you 😊 and looking forward to the ride alongs 🥰 Off topic here, but I wanted to mention a story you may very well already be familiar with, "Clophill", I personally just came across it myself. It was very interesting, but rather short and sparce on the details. And I just kept finding myself hoping you'd be covering it too, it just feels like if there were anymore information, you would definitely dig it up 😉.
