461: Episode 461 - "Built Upon the Dead" - Chilling Tales for Dark Nights

About this episode

A young caregiver uncovers dark secrets hidden beneath an old house, leading to terrifying consequences.

Night after night, the old house waits. Its halls are quiet. Its owner is frail. Its secrets have slept undisturbed for generations. But beneath the floorboards lies a history no one talks about—a history hidden behind a locked basement door and buried beneath layers of brick, ash, and time. When a young caregiver begins hearing voices in the darkness and uncovering fragments of a long-forgotten tragedy, she finds herself drawn toward answers that should never have been sought. What she discovers threatens to expose horrors that have lingered beneath the house for decades, waiting patiently for someone to set them free. Join host Steve Taylor for a haunting descent into obsession, tragedy, and the terrifying consequences of disturbing the dead, in our latest episode.
