NEW TAPE LIBRARY - Early Access

Giving you guys a bigger early access window for once because I actually finished this video before my deadline!

In case people have joined since I did the last one of these, just a little bit of information on it. This is 'Scary Stories to Fall Asleep To (Vol 8)', a compilation of stories that have been sent to me by listeners of the show. There should only be an ad break right after the intro, and then one at the end of the episode. So stories shouldn't be interupted. There are no s...

NEW TAPE LIBRARY - Early Access

So, there's a few very strange UFO encounters I've been asked to cover a few times in the past. But because they were kind of short, they didn't really merit an episode all on their own. But the stories were so weird, so unique and so memorable, that I decided to do a deep dive into the topic of weird UFO sightings.

Hope you guys enjoy this one, throw your sceptic hats out the window and just enjoy the bizare ride...

Just a quick message to you all...

Have spent this morning catching up on comments from the newest video and it just made me think. Over the last 14 months or so this channel has gone from virtually no one watching it to such a huge audience. But I was thinking this morning that the thing I am most grateful for is that even with that growth, the regular community around this channel are just really great people.

I kind of always assumed as the channel grew I would have to stop interacting with commenters and that the p...

NEW TAPE LIBRARY - Early Access

So here it is. This collaboration has been in the works for a few months so pleased I finally found a story that seemed perfect to bring Peter in for. Hope you enjoy this one! Obviously decided it was a smart idea to follow up my longest ever episode with my second longest episode...

Night!

TOMORROW (at some point...when I finish it)

A brand new entry into The Tape Library. The second longest deep dive I have ever done and this one is on what was once voted the most haunted pub in England. As a special treat I will be joined by the wonderful Peter Laws to tell this creepy tale.

Obviously as a Patreon members you guys get it early, so will be on the 14th for you. This is another case where I will be finishing the episode and uploading it immediately for you guys so I'm unsure what time it'll drop right now. But you...

Exciting week

So, after the mammoth Gef episode I thought I would tackle something simple. A creepy and interesting story but one that would like be a more manageable running time for me to work on.

Unfortunately, some people on The Tape Library team are idiots (there is no team, I am said idiot) and have written another long one.

But luckily I have a special guest joining me to try and help tackle this epic paranormal encounter. It's a long planned collaboration so I'm really pleased it's...

The Cage

In slightly Tape Library adjacent paranormal news, a few of you have sent me messages telling me about this. The guys who run AmysCrypt have apparently purchased The Cage! So the dream of it becoming Tape Library HQ is dead (this is likely for the best haha).

Really interested to see what ends up happening with this. From my limited knowledge they seem like good eggs, hopefully it's a step in the right direction for actually preserving this infamous haunted house.

If you haven't ...

A note on true crime...

Hey all,

One request I often get is to feature more true crime related cases on the channel. I’ve answered this a few times now but I thought it comes up so often that making a post is a more helpful way to get my feelings on this across.

So I have covered a handful of true crime cases, it’s a topic I at least used to be really interested in (as I’m sure many of you are). But I’ve found that I don’t really enjoy making them as much and I also sometimes feel rather out ...

New Tape Library - Early Access!

So here we go, what we're now calling the 300,000 subscriber special episode. The Dalby Spook (AKA Gef the Talking Mongoose) is one of my all time favourite paranormal stories. It's just so goddamn weird!

It's one of those stories that I feel everyone looks at in different ways, it's totally ridiculous and can be quite funny. But when you really dig into it, it's got a really creepy underbelly to it.

Again this is another one I've wanted to do for ages, but I kept putting off b...

An update on the update...

After quite a few long days and a little less sleep, the next episode of The Tape Library is complete! So you won't have to wait until next week after all.

Got some thoughts on this one but I will share them in my next post.

I am exporting this as we speak and as I mentioned it's a feature length episode! So, it might take a little while to upload. This means your 24 early access window might be a little shorter than usual. But I will have it ready for you all within the next fe...

Update

The next episode of The Tape Library is due to drop next Thursday. I am doing everything I can to stick to that, however it's increasingly looking like this entry is going to be near feature length! So please bear with me if it ends up coming out early the following week. Regardless, I thought I'd drop you your first clue before the weekend.

Things are going to get very strange around here...

300,000!

So, over the weekend The Tape Library hit 300,000 subscribers on Youtube! Thank you all so much for joining me on this weird little journey. That is a genuinely mind-blowing amount of people.

If you haven't checked it out, I released an episode a few days ago on the stories surrounding the Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum and I'm currently deep into writing the next one. Which I should have with you all late next week. It's going to be a crazy one I can tell you that much...

Thank...

Now on Reddit!

Ello all. One of the lovely people in the community has just set up a sub-reddit for The Tape Library. Have already spoken to them about it, it's going to be a fan run space where people can chat about anything connected to the channels/stories featured. But I will likely pop in from time to time!
