13 True Crime Podcasts to Batter Your Eardrums This Holiday Season.

If spending time with the in-laws this holiday season is grinding you down, then you’re going to need some true crime podcasts to keep you sane.

Here are 13 true crime podcasts to batter your eardrums this holiday season. All have appeared on other true crime podcasts lists throughout 2022.

Always Time for True Crime

Host, Julia Dow, has always been interested in true crime – the cruelness that some humans are capable of.

Always Time for True Crime was created in February 2020 and strives to share cases that are less well known. You won’t hear Jon Benet or Ted Bundy on this podcast!

Reverie True Crime

Reverie means to daydream but sometimes when we zone out, intrusive thoughts can creep in. We might start to think about our anxieties and worst fears. Sometimes we get caught up in obscure thoughts about disturbing events occurring, or that have occurred, in the world. As humans, we can naturally become curious about these horrible happenings in life.

Paige narrates stories of crimes, sits down and talks with victims’ loved ones, chats with other podcasters, survivors, and occasionally tells haunting, creepy stories. She is passionate about all aspects of these true stories. Shedding light on the dark, terrifying things that have happened, and still happen in the world, is very important to her.

Paige hopes that through these stories she can bring awareness to injustices, important issues, evil deeds that have taken place, and the scary reveries around us that hide in plain sight.

You can email case suggestions and even your personal paranormal/strange and/or crime related stories to ReverieTrueCrime@gmail.com.
