Last night, we rewatched A Nightmare on Elm Street—and let’s just say Freddy still does his job. Sleep is supposed to be safe, but tell that to the dream warriors who’ve met the Old Hag in Newfoundland, the kanashibari in Japan, or the Hat Man standing in the corner at 3 a.m. In this episode of Castle of Spirits True Ghost Stories podcast, the Ghostkeepers pull back the covers on centuries of sleep paralysis legends, shadow beings, and nocturnal visitors who blur the line between nightmare and reality. So grab your coffee and keep the lights on—we’re heading straight into the place where dreams bite back.
