The Let’s Read Podcast has garnered a lot of attention for its content largely on account of it being user-generated. The stories that feature in the podcast are true experiences that are sent in for curated episodes regularly. The host, Joel AKA Mr Read, has an important part to play in the fact that these stories stick with you long after you are done listening. His mellow and sombre tone makes for an engaging listen that draws you into the world of nightmares and horrors.

With a mix of creepypasta and truth, the American podcast has created a strong community on social media platforms. It has made for a great source of information, creativity, imagination and true stories that make for the chunk of the good material that is being put out. Like most horror story-based podcasts, the experience of listening to the narrator is what counts; Joel has managed to produce some spine-chilling stories with an edge that keeps you on your toes.
