The Box of Oddities19 Des 2025

Inbox of Oddities #68

From roadside alligators and paranormal children to phantom music in office vents, this Inbox of Oddities is packed with listener stories that blur the line between coincidence, the paranormal, and pure “what the hell just happened?” Kat and Jethro share unsettling and heartfelt emails from the Freak Fam, including a young child casually chatting with a grandmother who passed before he was born, a mysterious 1940s ballad heard only by one overnight janitor, and a chilling brain-surgery encounter where a deceased loved one may have appeared in the operating room. You’ll also hear classic BOO Effects, eerie synchronicities, haunted roads in England, ghost tours gone strange, cursed dolls no one asked for, rats with impeccable comedic timing, and a very real reminder that quicksand is not just a cartoon problem. Add in Florida alligators, Canadian border misunderstandings involving shovels and tarps, creepy toys, and inexplicable moments that stop the second you notice them—and you’ve got an Inbox episode that delivers equal parts humor, heart, and goosebumps. As always, these stories come straight from listeners around the world and remind us why the weird finds us when we least expect it. Keep flying that freak flag. Learn more about your ad choices.
