Lore Podcast: Soon to be TV Show

So I've been digging this podcast lately: LINK
The narrator, Aaron Mahnke, is a writer, so the narration is just well done. He uses great real world stories, keeps it short and efficient, and creates a pretty good atmosphere through sparse music.
So, first off, if you like ghost stories and weird things in history, give this a listen. He covers everything from old vampire tales and Robert the Doll to the Afterglow structure.
Well, it's also getting a TV show:
LINK
Which it COULD, maybe, be an Outer Limits of real stories. Super cool news.
They have to do it right however, because those setups can seem a little cheesy. Anyways, if you like horror stuff at all, or just good supernatural stories, give it a listen. Well worth it.
And while you're at it, you should listen to Welcome to Nightvale too, just start with Episode 1 and take it from there, no spoilers. Think if all the episodes of the Twilight Zone existed in a single town and they had a radio station......

Launched in March 2015 by Aaron Mahnke, Lore traces the cultural origins of legendary horror characters and myths such as zombies, vampires, and werewolves, based on eyewitness accounts, documented stories and historical events. The series will continue from that, combining narration, historical mixed media and cinematically shot scripted scenes.

It's his pacing too, he knows exactly when to pause, hesitate, etc.
