Episode notes
For over 600 years, monks climbed 600 hand-cut stone steps to live in total isolation on a jagged rock in the Atlantic — hunting God at the edge of the world. Then, without a single written explanation, they vanished. Tonight we climb Skellig Michael's stairway into a storm, a missing brother, and a wordless song rising up from the sea that the monastery was never meant to hear. Real history, real deaths, and a mystery no historian has ever solved. #DestinationTerror #SkelligMichael #HauntedIreland #TrueHorrorHistory #HorrorPodcast #TruecrimeCommunity #HorrorStories #ParanormalPodcast…

Flatwoods West Virginia - The Flatwoods Monster
On September 12, 1952, a glowing object dropped from the sky over Flatwoods, West Virginia. A group of boys, a mother, a young National Guardsman and a dog climbed the hill to look. They ran back down describing a ten-foot figure with a blood-red face, a pointed hood and glowing eyes, gliding toward them out of a foul mist. Was it a visitor from another world, or a startled barn owl having a very bad night? In this episode of Destination Terror, we visit the Braxton County hills to dig into the witnesses, the investigators and the skeptics behind the Flatwoods Monster. Our story tonight is a…

Bodie, California — Take a Souvenir, Pay the Price
High in the hills east of the Sierra Nevada sits Bodie, California. It was once one of the most lawless gold rush boomtowns in the West, and today it's the most famous ghost town in America. Its buildings stand frozen in time, with dishes still on the tables and goods still on the shelves. The town has one rule: take nothing. Visitors who pocketed a nail, a shard of glass or even a pebble have reported illness, accidents and a run of bad luck, and every week the park receives apology letters with the stolen items rattling inside. On this episode of Destination Terror, Carman Carrion tells an…

LA NORIA – The Ghost Town That Still Rings Bells
Deep in Chile's Atacama Desert — the driest place on Earth — sits the abandoned ruins of La Noria, a saltpeter mining town founded in 1826 and left to rot when the industry collapsed. What remains is a roofless church, a cemetery of thousands of cracked and leaning crosses, and a legend locals repeat without hesitation: the dead of La Noria don't stay buried after dark. This episode, we trace the town's brutal real history — forced labor, child death, and a burial ground the desert keeps trying to give back — alongside the story of a woman who came looking for one name in a hundred-year-old…

Fouke, Arkansas — The Beast That Walks Out of Boggy Creek
Something seven feet tall has been walking out of the Arkansas swamp for over a hundred years. It leaves footprints with only three toes. It's been shot at more times than anyone can count — and it always comes back. This is the Fouke Monster. Deep in the Sulphur River bottoms of southwest Arkansas, the little town of Fouke shares its backyard with the Beast of Boggy Creek — the three-toed, red-eyed swamp Bigfoot that terrorized the Ford family in 1971, inspired the cult classic film The Legend of Boggy Creek, and still gets called in to the county sheriff to this day. Host Carman Carrion —…

The Haunted Moonville Tunnel - Ohio's Ghost That Still Stops
Deep in the most heavily forested county in Ohio, a brick tunnel stands alone in the woods with a dead town's name still carved above it — and a lantern that swings in the dark for trains that stopped running decades ago. This is the true history of the Moonville Tunnel, the ghosts of the vanished coal town that surround it, and the operating order a real railroad reportedly issued in 1981 telling engineers to look right at the phantom light and pretend it wasn't there. Then stay for an original horror story set inside the tunnel — because the legend has one thing backwards about what that…

Rainbow Valley - The Frozen Dead of Everest's Death Zone
Above 26,000 feet on Mount Everest lies the death zone — where the air can't keep you alive and the cold won't let the dead decay. This is Rainbow Valley, the stretch below the summit named for the bright jackets of the climbers who never came down. This week on Destination Terror: an original story of two climbers, and a brother who won't stay buried — wrapped around the chilling true history of Everest's frozen dead and the valley of color that waits below the summit. Until we meet at our next destination. #Everest #RainbowValley #DeathZone #MountEverest #FrozenBodies #DestinationTerror…

The Death Road - Bolivia's Most Dangerous Highway Has a Terrifying Secret
Bolivia's North Yungas Road has a nickname it earned in full: the Road of Death. A single-lane ribbon of dirt and stone clinging to the Andes, with a wall of rock on one side and a two-thousand-foot drop into fog on the other — no guardrail, no shoulder, no mercy. It was carved out by prisoners of war in the 1930s, and for seventy years it killed by the hundreds, until it became the only road in Bolivia where you drive on the left, so you can watch your own wheels decide whether you live. But the people who bury their dead along it will tell you the danger isn't only the edge. It's what…
