  • WEREHYENA – Deadly Laughter in the African Night
    Jun 30 2025
    Across the moonlit savannas and highland forests of Africa, where shadows dance between acacia trees and ancient stone outcropping, a sound pierces the darkness that chills even the bravest hunter's blood: the maniacal laughter that signals the approach of something far more terrifying than any natural predator—creatures that walk as men by day but hunt as demons when darkness falls, their jaws crushing bone and sinew while their human eyes gleam with inhuman hunger.

I love how the narrator's voice adds to the stories vibe! They are great to listen to and honestly spook me out. I love the history aspect to it and how the story is also very spooky. All around in my humble opinion this is a great podcast if your into being intrigued and spooked!!

I have been searching for more podcasts that are paranormal, supernatural, and spooky that cover urban legends, lore, and encounters with the unexplained (as well as explaining more about the history behind such), and Freaky Folklore is definitely one of my favorites! For me, it's the kind of podcast I love to dim or turn off the lights, or light a candle, to listen to and imagine myself possibly encountering something so strange to ask myself what my reaction would really be in whatever situation it is. Definitely worth listening to!

Amazing Spooky/Strange Podcast

This podcast is good and rather creepy
It is done well but not overdone and cheesy

Using words like alleged and the like

I recently found this and I really enjoy it, especially love listening to it while going on long hikes are my night walks. Hope to get more Asian monster collection episodes as well as Mexican/ South American monsters.

Great find

at one point it specifically mentioned no cell service in the house, later a character texts from the house and gets an immediate response. just a funny little continuity error but I'm looking forward to seeing this podcast improve in the future.

fun but room for improvement
