With Halloween night beginning in only a matter of hours, everyone wants to listen to scary, spooky stories. If you love ‘Criminal Minds’ or ‘CSI: Crime Scene Investigation’ these podcasts are for you.

Crime Junkie
Led by hosts Ashley Flowers and her friend Brit, “Crime Junkie” covers all the crimes you’ve never heard of. Each episode begins with Ashley telling the story of a murder, a missing person, or a mysterious death. As she dives deeper into the mystery, holes begin to form, or stories start to not add up. Most of the episodes cover unsolved mysteries, allowing listeners to come up with theories themselves. Many episodes are also used to advocate for unsolved cases. “Crime Junkie” can be found on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Pandora, and Amazon Music.

Serial Killers
“Serial Killers” is perfect for anyone who enjoys formal-styled podcasts. Hosts Greg and Vanessa detail the life of notorious serial killers from their early childhood all the way to their crimes and capture. Listeners can learn more about infamous killers such as Ted Bundy and Jeffrey Dahmer or discover criminals they’ve never heard of like Richard Rogers and Charles Albright. Most stories are a two-part series, with each episode being about 45-minutes long. “Serial Killers” is a Spotify Original by Parcast.

Morbid
True crime isn’t just murders and disappearances. “Morbid” covers everything from typical crimes to supernatural stories and crazy cults. Hosted by autopsy technician Alaina Urquhart and Ash Kelley, this show provides a unique perspective on each story. With a very casual tone and humorous side conversations, listeners feel like a part of the show. Some episodes also include guest speakers or stories submitted by fans themselves. “Morbid” can be found on Wondery.com, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Amazon Music.

Dateline
Most people know “Dateline” as a television show on NBC, but they also have a podcast that covers the same gripping stories that were originally aired on TV. Each episode includes the story of the crime, along with interviews with those involved in the case. By following the investigation, listeners can feel the excitement of each case. Episodes range from 30 minutes to over an hour and can be listened to on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Google Podcasts.
