Spookalicious
I found Stephanie’s pod on the Darkcast Network. She does a great job of telling stories- and you can sense she cares about the subject manner. Can’t get enough of the spookalicious content!! Keep up the good work!
Sinister in the best way
So many episodes are cases I have never heard of the Heaven's Gate episode was my first, but I stayed for so many more
Steph approaches stories with sensitivity
You can tell Steph really cares about the stories she’s telling. She always finds interesting crimes I haven't heard of, and she approaches each one with so much sensitivity and empathy. She’s a great storyteller and I find her voice to be so soothing and relaxing!
