About this listen

SEASON 07 WILL BEGIN FRIDAY JULY 28TH

Unexplained is a haunting and unsettling bi-weekly podcast about strange and mysterious real life events that continue to evade explanation.

    In the shadows of Greater Manchester’s canals and waterways, some believe something ancient and malevolent might be lurking.

I actually really enjoy the narration. Apparently that's the reason for the down votes. it's undeserved.

this Podcast is extraordinarily boring in cadence and narration. It sounds like this guy is reading an inventory list

Good stories, but narration is boring in cadence.

The narrator's voice is so calm, it belies the words he's reading...Great podcast! Creepy, weird, and other "unexplained" things.

Audible makes it impossible to listen sequentially-- can you fix that?

King fans will love this! Either way, MUST listen

until I started listening to this. And the narrator is a bit dry for some but I would be as well if I knew all these weird things might have actually happened or definitely have.....I think he's more calming and he puts me to sleep.... don't think that's the intention though so try it out when you aren't sleepy. it's definitely worth a listen -lots of interesting stories.

never knew this much weirdness was out there
