Our Boogeyman Turned Out to Be.... a Real Serial Killer

Hosted by Michelle Newman | Tell Me A Ghost Story In this chilling episode of Tell Me A Ghost Story, I'm sharing true paranormal stories from real phone calls, modern ghost stories about demon lambs, forest guardians, hurricane warnings, urban legends turned real, and unsolved disappearances. These are real ghost encounters told by the voices who lived them.🐑 John from Little Rock shares an uncanny childhood encounter with something he calls "demon lambs" on Spar Hill. At 11 years old, exploring a rural hill known for supernatural activity and will-o'-the-wisps, he lost track of time and found himself followed by lamb-like creatures with bright red eyes and snapping teeth. What started as one became three, closing in until he tumbled down the hillside to escape. This eerie story raises the question: what lurks in remote places where swamp gas and fireballs appear? A true ghost story about creatures that don't belong in our world.🔥 Jake, a fire lookout from Missoula, Montana, tells a haunting story from the Bitterroot National Forest. Working alone in an observation tower at 7,000 feet, he spotted a mysterious white light moving through the woods at 2 AM. Following it, he encountered a woman in a clearing surrounded by soft light, a ghost who led him deeper into the wilderness, fading as they walked until she brought him to a burned-out cabin where her family died in a 2008 wildfire. Her whispered "thank you" on the wind suggests she'd been waiting years for someone to remember them. This real paranormal story is a reminder that some spirits just need to be witnessed.🌊 Brenda from Charleston shares her encounter with the Grey Man of Pawleys Island before Hurricane Matthew in 2016. Standing on her deck as the hurricane approached, she saw a man in all grey walking the beach, the legendary Grey Man who had appeared before major hurricanes since 1822. The overwhelming sense of dread made her evacuate immediately. Hurricane Matthew destroyed her entire neighborhood, wiping her house off its foundation, but she and her neighbors survived because they heeded the Grey Man's warning. This supernatural story blurs the line between folklore and life-saving intervention.👤 Mark from Brooklyn tells the true crime story of Cropsey, Staten Island's boogeyman, who turned out to be real. The legend described an escaped mental patient with a hook hand living in tunnels under the abandoned Willowbrook State School. But when children actually started disappearing in the '70s and '80s, police arrested Andre Rand—a former Willowbrook janitor who was abducting children and living in the woods around the property. Mark and his friend encountered a man watching them from the trees weeks before Rand's arrest, and he still doesn't know if it was the real killer. This ghost story became a real paranormal nightmare when folklore and true crime merged into one terrifying reality.Each phone call in this paranormal podcast captures real ghost encounters, ghosts and hauntings, and true ghost stories that connect us through the unexplainable.
