I'm Still Here

from Spooky Story Time · host Mercury

What starts as a quiet evening becomes a slow, suffocating descent into dread when an African Grey parrot begins speaking in a voice no living person could produce. In this unnerving story, Apollo’s usual cheerful chatter is replaced by rasping whispers. Its behaviour shifts - pacing at night, staring down the hallway toward the perpetually cold guest room, warning not to look behind them. Every attempt at rationality fails: no carbon monoxide, no intruder, no tragic building history. Just a parrot who seems to be listening to something no one else can hear. And then, just as suddenly as it began, the voice stops. For listeners who love domestic horror, uncanny animal behaviour, and stories where the supernatural hides in the mundane, this episode delivers a creeping dread that settles under your skin and refuses to leave. Not for kids - listener discretion advised. ------------ Beth's Spooky Story Time is your new favourite horror podcast, best enjoyed alone with headphones.
