Every year around Halloween, Art Bell opened the phone lines to callers who had a ghost story to tell. I’ve enjoyed listening to those broadcasts for many years. More recently we’ve made it a Halloween tradition to play them with my kids on long car rides. Everyone gets pulled in by the stories and Art Bells’ iconic late-night radio voice.
This site started as a project for my own curiosity. I wanted to know what was in all those hours of tape. So I had software transcribe the 19 broadcasts it covers (1993 to 2013) and split them into 853 individual stories. Each story has its own page with a short summary, a few tags, and the audio clip, so you can hear the caller tell it.

A few notes:
The story summaries and tags are written by AI, and I have not personally checked all of them yet. I am sure there are some mistakes. But the audio is the real thing. Callers’ names are left off the site.
This is an independent hobby project, not connected to Art Bell, Coast to Coast AM, or anyone who created the shows. The recordings come from a community upload on the Internet Archive.
