Jim Harold's Campfire

1d ago

A summer camp filled with unseen laughter. A hospital where night shifts bring encounters no one can chart. A family home that feels heavier the higher you climb. This Campfire episode moves through places where something lingers after lights go out, footsteps echo without a source, and ordinary locations take on an unsettling second life. From playful disturbances to moments that stop people cold in their tracks, these stories blur the line between comforting and deeply unnerving. These stories will stay with you long after the fire burns low.

A late-night challenge in an empty bar leads to a moment that feels frozen in time, raising the kind of question that sticks with you. It’s the perfect gateway into an episode where ordinary nights and familiar places quietly give way to something far stranger. As the stories unfold, listeners will hear about homes that seem to react to change, unsettling activity that builds over time, and deeply personal signs from loved ones that arrive when they’re needed most. There are moments that feel comforting, others that are deeply unnerving, and a few that blur the line between coincidence and something more. Join us for this edition of Jim Harold's Campfire!

A longtime homeowner starts noticing small things that don’t add up, the kind of quiet disturbances that make you wonder what changed after years of normal life. That moment sets the tone for a run of stories that move between the unsettling and the strangely comforting, from unexpected visitors during medical emergencies to eerie late–night moments in the wilderness. You’ll also hear about shared dreams that line up a little too well, old houses that seem to hold on to more than memories, and people who find themselves face to face with something they can’t quite explain. Settle in as callers try to make sense of the moments that stayed with them long after the lights came back on. It's all on this episode of Jim Harold's Campfire!

Not everything that visits in the night comes through the door. We open with a chilling case of sleep paralysis involving shadowy figures, unseen forces, and encounters at the bedside that raise the question of what walks beside us when we slumber. From there, the stories expand into a wider tapestry of strangeness, from out-of-body experiences to uncanny glimpses of another time and place. Listeners will also hear about objects moving on their own, electronics behaving with impossible timing, signs from passed loved ones, and even an angelic figure arriving when hope felt thin. Some moments are frightening, others awe-filled, and all of them suggest that the world is stranger and more layered than it appears. Settle in and decide for yourself what’s real, what’s mystery, and what might be waiting just beyond the edge of sleep. Stay Spooky.

A caller shares a chilling roadside legend about a phantom haunting the Oregon coast, while another describes coming face to face with something so dark it looked like a hole cut out of the universe. Another tells of a series of dreams that seemed to predict real-life events long before they happened. We hear a moving story about a horse whose spirit may still be watching over its owner, a supernatural collectible, and UFO encounters from the skies over the U.K. Together, these true tales show that the unexplained doesn’t go on vacation after Halloween. It’s all around us, every day of the year. BETTERHELP This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp. This is a paid advertisement. Give online therapy a try.

We start with a chilling tale of a childhood spent in a house that refused to rest quietly. From trembling beds to shadowed visitors, this story reminds us that sometimes the past doesn’t stay buried within old walls. Then, we journey across the pond for a museum visit that turns unexpectedly dark, where centuries-old stone seems to hold on to more than just history. From haunted homes to spectral pets, unnerving dreams, and even a strange sight in the skies, tonight’s callers deliver a full spectrum of the unexplained. Whether it’s something that reaches from beyond—or a mystery written into time itself—you’ll be left wondering what truly lingers in the places we think we know. Stay spooky and settle in for another unforgettable night around the Campfire. BETTERHELP This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp. Give online therapy a try.
