The Dark Side of Storytelling...

Echoes in the Dark: Original Stories, True Hauntings, & Horror Genre Explored is the podcast for people who sleep with the lights off but absolutely shouldn’t. Each week, we bring you original horror tales designed to make you question that noise in the hallway, dive into true hauntings that’ll make you rethink old houses, and explore the movies, lore, monsters, and cultural nightmares that shape the horror genre.

Hosted by John Keaser Jr.—with the occasional unhinged commentary from Macabre Bob—Echoes in the Dark blends twisted storytelling with research, realism, and just enough adult sarcasm to make your therapist concerned. Expect dark humor, creepy vibes, and the kind of honest reactions you only get when the host is running on caffeine, trauma, and questionable life choices.

If you like your horror atmospheric, your folklore unsettling, and your jokes a little too inappropriate for HR, welcome home. Some echoes whisper…
These ones bite.

    Winter changes things.
    The nights grow longer. The cold seeps into your bones. And the stories — the bad ones — come looking for you.

    In this Christmas Horror Edition of Echoes in the Dark, host John Keaser Jr. — writer, insomniac, and horror exhibitionist — trades tinsel and cheer for something far older, meaner, and far less forgiving.

    This episode dives headfirst into holiday horror, featuring:

    • A chilling Krampus creature feature that explores punishment, belief, and what happens when the season turns against you
    • Macabre Bob stepping in with his own darkly comic interludes and twisted holiday commentary
    • A brutal breakdown of six Christmas horror films — from cult classics to modern shockers — dissected with biting sarcasm, detailed play-by-plays, effects analysis, budget talk, and unapologetic reflections
    • And a reminder that sometimes the bells don’t jingle… they warn

    This episode contains explicit language, graphic horror themes, and adult content and is intended for mature audiences only.

    So, dim the lights. Lock the doors.
    And remember — Santa isn’t the only thing watching this Christmas.

  • We Wish You a Morbid Christmas

    We Wish You a Morbid Christmas a brutal bonus episode of Echoes in the Dark, where host John Keaser Jr. — writer, insomniac, and horror exhibitionist — rips the holiday cheer out of three Christmas horror films that chose violence over comfort.

    In this ranked breakdown, John delivers a darkly sarcastic, no-mercy deep dive into The Mean One (2022), Christmas Bloody Christmas (2022), and Christmas Evil (1980) — examining their kills, performances, cinematography, practical effects, budgets, and cult legacies.

    From public-domain slashers and neon-soaked robotic Santas to slow-burn psychological Christmas nightmares, this episode explores why Christmas horror works best when it strips away nostalgia and exposes what’s really underneath the tinsel.

    Featuring sharp commentary, detailed play-by-play analysis, and appearances from Macabre Bob, this episode is not cozy, not safe, and absolutely not for the nice list.

    🎧 Listener discretion strongly advised.

  • Winter of the Wendigo
    2025/12/11

    In Episode 4, John descends into the frozen nightmare of one of North America’s most chilling legends: the Wendigo. This creature isn’t your pop-culture antlered forest spirit—this is the real beast of Algonquin lore: a gaunt, skeletal predator born from starvation, desperation, and the darkest corners of winter.

    The episode opens as John sets the tone for a long, merciless season, then hands the mic to Macabre Bob, who—as always—shows up with inappropriate enthusiasm, terrible winter “safety tips,” and the subtle charm of a crypt keeper working the night shift.

    From there, we dig deep into the history, anthropology, and indigenous accounts behind the Wendigo:

    • How this creature became the embodiment of hunger and greed
    • Why winter is its hunting season
    • Real sightings and cultural stories
    • The chilling psychological phenomenon of Wendigo psychosis

    John’s dark humor and storytelling guide listeners through the legend while keeping the frostbite at bay. Expect sarcasm, shivers, and a side of existential dread.

    The episode wraps with a call to action, updates on Hopewell Hollow, and a reminder that the Hollow Shop is open for the brave. John also invites listeners to submit their novels or short stories for review and possible feature on the show—just email hopwellhollow1993@gmail.com
    .

    If you like folklore, fear, and frost-bitten monsters, “Winter of the Wendigo” is the perfect storm.
