Got a true encounter? A family legend that refuses to die? A place you still won’t drive past at night? Send it.
Two Brothers Two Agendas lives for listener stories, especially the kind that start normal and end with someone quietly changing the locks. Paranormal, cryptids, conspiracies, weird crime, cursed objects, strange towns, suspicious woods, and “this should not be happening” energy… we want it.
What we’re looking for
- Paranormal (hauntings, poltergeists, sleep paralysis, weird voices, shadow people, time slips)
- Cryptids (sightings, tracks, screams in the woods, “that wasn’t a deer”)
- Crimes (unsolved, suspicious, folklore-adjacent, documented if possible)
- Conspiracies (local cover-ups, patterns, “everybody knows but nobody says it”)
- Cursed Objects (dolls, antiques, gifts you regret, anything that brought a vibe and kept it)
- Mysteries (disappearances, unexplained events, missing time, unanswered questions)
- Weird (glitches, coincidences, liminal encounters, the unclassifiable)
- Other (if it fits the show but not the labels)
- Fictional (original stories welcome, just label it clearly as FICTION)
What makes a story usable
Details. Not perfect writing. Not dramatic flourishes. Details.
If you can, include:
- Where it happened (city/state, or general area if you want privacy)
- When it happened (year, season, time of day)
- Who was there (just first names or “my friend,” totally fine)
- What you saw/heard/felt (in order, start to finish)
- Anything that changed afterward (repeat activity, dreams, injuries, electronics, pets reacting)
- Any proof (photos, audio, police report links, news articles, screenshots)
- Also, if you have anything that enhances the story, send it. Photos, sound clips, video, links, anything. (Just tell us in your message that you have proof, and we’ll follow up to collect it.)
Write it like you’re telling a friend what happened and you want them to believe you.
You can stay anonymous
If you want us to change names, locations, or identifying details, say so up front. We can protect privacy while keeping the story intact.
Not a fit
- Hate content or harassment
- Doxxing or posting personal info about people who didn’t consent
- Fake “creepypasta as true” submissions
- Anything that encourages harm or illegal activity
Permission + how we use submissions
By submitting, you’re saying:
- This is your story (or you have permission to share it)
- You give us permission to read it on the show, edit for length/clarity, and change names/details if requested
- If we want to feature it in a bigger way, we may reach out for follow-up questions
We won’t paywall your story, and we won’t claim it happened to us. We’ll credit you however you want (name, first name only, or anonymous).
Want your story featured sooner?
Help us help you:
- Use the category dropdown and include key details as needed
- Be as precise as you can, and don’t make us have to “fact check” things. If you say it was a real and a news station covered it, we’re going to look that up. If it’s a fictional story, please say so, we would still love to read it; it could potentially be featured on Phreak’s Bedtime Stories.
- Keep it in one message (or one doc link)
- Include the key details up top: location + date range + what happened
Submit below
If your story makes Kamen squint and makes Phreak grin, congratulations. You’ve done something deeply unsettling and we appreciate you for it.
