8 Spooktacular Podcasts and Audiobooks the Whole Family Will Love

1. Escape the Haunted House

Escape the Haunted House, a brand new Pinna original, takes audio entertainment to a whole new level. Now, your kids can interact with the audio by answering “yes” and “no” at intervals throughout the story. Can you escape the haunted house before it’s too late? If you guys enjoy Escape the Haunted House, check out the other two titles in the series — Escape the Marshmallow Dream Forest and Escape the Sinking Ship.

2. Grimm, Grimmer, Grimmest

Hosted by Adam Gidwitz, storyteller extraordinaire, the delightfully creepy fairy tale retellings in Grimm, Grimmer, Grimmest will entertain the whole family — young and old alike. These are perfect for the weeks leading up to Halloween when you want to celebrate the spooky season by finding on-theme audio to listen to at home or on the go. Bonus: there are enough episodes to keep you busy from now ‘til Halloween (and beyond!).

3. Fast Fright Thrillers

When time is short and you need a quick listen, check out Fast Fright Thrillers. Each story is 5 minutes or less — just long enough to pique your interest and leave you wanting more. These short stories work wonderfully for car rides down the street or transition times at home. Careful, or your kids will want to binge the whole season at once!

4. The Creeping Hour

A horror anthology like The Creeping Hour is exactly what you need to get your family in the mood for Halloween weekend. The Creeping Hour is hosted by three friends, affectionately known as the Creeps, who listened to so many scary stories they turned into monsters themselves. How’s that for a spooky synopsis? Check out The Creeping Hour on Pinna.

5. Origins Unknown

When strange things start happening in the town of Copper Heights, it looks like it’s gonna be up to the kids to save the day. Join 16-year-old Max Emmerson and his friends as they try to figure out who — or what — is haunting the residents in their small town. Can they solve the mystery before it’s too late? Listen to Origins Unknown to find out!

6. Ghost Stories Series

Pinna has a new series of books out perfect for the month of October. Really, kids love ‘em year round, but they’re extra fun to listen to when you’re gearing up for Halloween. This audiobook series is called Ghost Stories and there are 5 titles in the set.

Monster on My Roof is a classic children’s book that tells the story of Billy, a kid who is scared to go to sleep at night because he’s hearing strange noises coming from his roof. Is it a monster? Will Billy finally get a good night’s rest? Listen along to find out.
