List Envy is back in the new year with a new slate of guests and lists. To get us back into the spirit, Mark called up previous guests Cat Turner and Tom Clabon to swap “scary ghost stories”, as is tradition, according to It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year, which is a Christmas song.

Mothman

Cat has an enclyopaedic knowledge of this cryptid, and covered him… it?… at great length in an episode of Cat’s Cabinet of Curiosities.

Cropsey

Cropsey was a New York urban legend, but according to a 2009 documentary, there may be some truth behind it.

Talking Angela

This smartphone app from 2012 had certain corners of the Internet aflutter, and forced the company who mae it to put out a rather unusual, and bold, statement.

Olivia Mabel

Spoiler alert: this one isn’t real, but it’s really spooky… apart from one dead giveaway. Good job on the website though.

The body under the bed

Turns out this common childhood fear might not be entirely unfounded. Try not to have nightmares, and also don’t let your dogs lick your hand sight unseen.
