Weekly Spooky: Scary Christmas Stories | Terrifying Tales to Creep Your Holiday

• The Weather Outside is Frightful: Deadly Christmas Hurricane!

  Looking for a chilling Christmas horror story with ghosts, storms, and a cursed secret? This holiday horror episode of Weekly Spooky takes you to the Florida coast on Christmas Eve, where there’s no snow—just black water, violent wind, and something in the dark that refuses to let go.Chet Miller is a grieving widower spending Christmas alone in Nokomis, Florida, the TV off and a vintage Christmas radio humming carols in the corner. When a sudden Christmas hurricane slams into the coast, he refuses to evacuate. He’s convinced his late wife is still with him in the house, and he won’t abandon her memory… or the mysterious leather journal he keeps close at hand. As the storm intensifies outside, the whispers inside his home grow stronger, and the line between grief and haunting starts to tear open.With floodwater creeping under the door, power lines snapping, and that old radio picking up voices it shouldn’t, Chet finds himself trapped between the rising storm and a presence that wants more than his company. Is it the ghost of the woman he loved, or something far older answering a desperate, dangerous wish? On this night, the biggest threat may not be the hurricane—but what he invited in when nobody was listening.If you love Christmas ghost stories, coastal horror, and supernatural thrillers where the weather and the haunting hit at the same time, this creepy Christmas podcast episode is the perfect dark companion for your winter nights. Turn off the lights, turn up the volume, and find out what happens when the weather outside is more than just frightful.The Weather Outside Is Frightful — by Charles Campbell🎧 LISTEN NOW and subscribe for spine-tingling horror stories every week!🎉 Unlock exclusive bonus episodes and support the show on Patreon!👉 WeeklySpooky.com/Join📬 Contact Us / Submit Your Horror Story!Twitter: @WeeklySpookyFacebook: facebook.com/WeeklySpookyEmail: [email protected]🎵 Music by Ray Mattis 👉 Check out Ray’s incredible work here !👨‍💼 Executive Producers: Rob Fields, Bobbletopia.com🎥 Produced by: Daniel Wilder🌐 Explore more terrifying tales at: WeeklySpooky.com

• This Week in Horror History | Turistas, Scalps, House of Dracula & Girls Nite Out

  The first week of December isn’t just for cozy rom-coms and twinkling lights. On this episode of This Week in Horror History, we dig into the spooky side of December 1–7, charting travel nightmares, cursed deserts, classic Universal monsters, and a knife-clawed college mascot turning school spirit into a bloodbath.We kick things off with Turistas (2006), the mid-2000s travel horror where a dream backpacking trip in Brazil plunges into organ-harvesting terror. It’s that “don’t get on the bus” era of horror, loaded with sweaty paranoia and the ugly underside of “exotic” tourism.From there, we head to the desert with Scalps (1983), a shoestring-budget curse shocker about archaeology students who dig on sacred land and unleash a vengeful spirit. It slipped quietly into limited December release but later clawed out a cult following on home video and streaming thanks to its gritty, regional DIY vibe.Then we turn back the clock to House of Dracula (1945), one of Universal’s last serious monster mash-ups. Dracula, the Wolf Man, and Frankenstein’s monster all converge on a tormented doctor who thinks he can “cure” them — and instead gives us a fog-drenched fever dream of capes, neck bolts, and mad science that feels tailor-made for chilly December nights.Our Deep Cut Spotlight goes to Girls Nite Out (1982), a campus slasher originally released as The Scaremaker. A college basketball win kicks off an all-night scavenger hunt, while a killer in the school’s bear mascot costume stalks the grounds with steak knives strapped to its paws. It’s pure early-’80s slasher energy — dorm drama, campus radio, locker-room stalking — that barely made a ripple in theaters but was rescued by VHS and, eventually, a boutique Blu-ray restoration.We also roll through a Birthday Roll for horror heavy hitters born this week — from Sean S. Cunningham and Tony Todd to genre-shaping talents behind slashers, supernatural sequels, and expressionist nightmares — and talk about how their work threads through the films we’re spotlighting.To wrap it all up, we land on a Weekly Recommendation that fits perfectly with early December: Edward Scissorhands (1990). It’s the ultimate snowy, suburban gothic fairy tale — pastel houses, winter loneliness, and a gentle “monster” whose ice-carved sculptures make the snow fall — ideal for horror fans easing into holiday mode without losing that eerie edge.This episode of This Week in Horror History is brought to you in part by Savorista — the spooky-friendly coffee brand serving bold, gourmet flavors in decaf and half-caf roasts so you can binge horror without wrecking your sleep.

• Terrifying & True | Dangers of a Victorian Christmas: Fires, Poisons, and Deadly Traditions

  A Victorian Christmas looks cozy on greeting cards—glowing candle-lit trees, shimmering tinsel, children gathered around the fire. But behind the snow-globe charm was a season of deadly house fires, toxic decorations, poisoned sweets, and experimental electric lights that turned “old-fashioned Christmas” into a very real nightmare. In this episode of Terrifying & True, we dig into the true history of how festive traditions nearly burned homes to the ground, poisoned entire families, and forced the world to rethink what “safe” even meant.Inside this episode:Candle-lit Christmas trees as ticking time bombs: How dry fir branches, open flames, and flammable Victorian fashion created instant infernos in parlors across Britain and beyond.Toxic snow, tinsel, and ornaments: From cotton “snow” that flashed into flame to lead-based tinsel and arsenic-dyed decorations that slowly poisoned anyone who touched or tasted them.Deadly toys and poisoned treats: The rise of arsenic greens, adulterated candies, and tainted puddings, and the chilling real-life stories of children who paid the price for “holiday cheer.”Early electric lights and new kinds of danger: How the “safe” alternative to candles—experimental electric light strings and overloaded wiring—brought shocks, sparks, and fresh fears to the Christmas season.From horror to reform: The fires, poisonings, and public scandals that pushed governments, scientists, and ordinary families toward modern safety standards, consumer protections, and fire codes that still save lives today.This Christmas, as you plug in your UL-listed lights and hang shatterproof ornaments, remember the people who learned these lessons the hardest way possible—and the ghostly echoes of Victorian Christmases that still haunt our holidays. We’re telling that story tonight.🎧 LISTEN NOW and subscribe for spine-tingling horror stories every week!🎉 Unlock exclusive bonus episodes and support the show on Patreon!👉 WeeklySpooky.com/Join📬 Contact Us / Submit Your Horror Story!Twitter: @WeeklySpookyFacebook: facebook.com/WeeklySpookyEmail: [email protected]🎵 Music by Ray Mattis 👉 Check out Ray’s incredible work here !👨‍💼 Executive Producers: Rob Fields, Bobbletopia.com🎥 Produced by: Daniel Wilder🌐 Explore more terrifying tales at: WeeklySpooky.com
