Project Black Garden: A Monsters & Myths Podcast

High above the city, perched on cold stone towers and crumbling cathedrals—they stare down with hollow eyes. Twisted faces frozen in eternal screams. Wings outstretched. Mouths agape.

Gargoyles.

They were built to ward off evil… But what if the evil was already inside them?

Tonight, we descend into the shadows of history to uncover the truth about gargoyles. From ancient waterspouts to supernatural guardians, from medieval legends ...

In the forgotten corners of the desert, where the dunes shift like serpents and shadows whisper secrets older than time… something stirs. Tonight, we open the gateway to the realm of the JINN. Creatures born of smokeless fire, older than man, feared by prophets, and blamed for madness. They see you when you sleep. They follow you through the dark. And if you ever speak their name… they just might answer.

Welcome to Project Black Ga...

In the cold, deep waters of a Scottish loch lies a legend that refuses to die. For centuries, whispers of a monstrous shadow beneath the surface have chilled spines and sparked imaginations. Tonight, we dive into the dark folklore, eyewitness accounts, and scientific investigations behind one of the world’s greatest mysteries: the Loch Ness Monster. But beware, some legends don’t stay buried beneath the waves.

You came back. I knew you would.

It’s been a long time since the last recording and in that silence, the Garden kept growing. Now… the third season begins. And what I’ve uncovered, it’s bigger, older, and far more dangerous than the legends we thought we understood. These aren’t just myths anymore. They’re the truth.

Hidden records from a government division that officially doesn’t exist. Files my great-uncle left behind decades ag...

In the shadow of the world’s tallest peaks, something moves where no human should be. Silent. Watching. Waiting.

The locals speak in hushed tones of a creature older than the mountains themselves. Covered in white. Towering. And never far behind. They say it leaves no survivors… only footprints in the snow. Is it a myth born of isolation and cold… Or have we simply ignored the truth for too long?

Tonight, we follow the trail. But b...

First comes the buzzing. Then the pressure in your throat. And if you listen closely… you can hear them moving under your tongue. They don’t sting to kill. They sting to plant. Their young feed on nerves. They bloom inside your mouth like flowers made of hunger. Villages erased. Caves sealed and forgotten. Eyewitnesses driven mad. And behind every case... one constant: the Jawbreaker Wasp.

Tonight, we open the nest. We peel back th...

In the heart of the desert lies a doorway to the past. Sealed for centuries, untouched by time. But some doors should never be opened.

They called it a miracle of preservation. A marvel of ancient science. But beneath the linen wraps and golden masks… something else waited.

A tale of forbidden tombs, unraveling legends, and the deadly price of disturbing the dead. Beware the Mummy...

They walk where the living dare not tread. Echoes of the forgotten, shadows of regret, forever bound between worlds. Some seek peace, others seek revenge. But all of them… seek you.

Tonight, we invite you to listen closely. To the footsteps in empty halls, the whispers behind locked doors, and the cold breath on the back of your neck when no one is there.

This is ghosts.

Not legends… not imagination… but the restless dead that refu...

They say he comes when the world is asleep. When your mind drifts beyond the veil of dreams and your body lies helpless in the dark.

A shadow with no face. A weight on your chest. A whisper in your ear that isn’t your own. He doesn’t knock. He doesn’t ask. He takes.

For centuries, women have woken breathless, trembling, certain they were not alone. Some say it was just a nightmare. Others never woke up at all.

Tonight, we descend i...

They were here long before the first cities rose from clay. Before gods walked among men. Before the earth had a name.

They say the bones still lie beneath the hills. Too massive for any beast, too human to explain away. Whispers tell of beings taller than trees… eyes like burning coals… and a hunger that shook the heavens.

The old stories called them giants. Titans. Fallen gods. Monsters carved from the bones of the world itself.

...

They lurk in corners just beyond the edge of light. No eyes, no face. Only the shape of something watching. They visit when you're most vulnerable… paralyzed in your bed, unable to scream. Are they spirits… interdimensional travelers… or something far more sinister? Tonight, we step into the darkness to uncover the truth behind the watchers in the shadows.

Let us explore the myths, sightings, and terrifying truths of the Shadow Peo...

He has no face, yet every missing child swears they saw him watching from the trees. A figure stitched together by the internet’s darkest corners... born in pixels, raised in whispers, and now, lurking in your nightmares. Slender Man is more than a myth. He’s an infection. A shadow that spreads with every story told, every image shared, and every believer lost in the woods.

You think you’re safe because he was born on the internet?...

They say the dead rest in peace… but not all of them. Some walk among us... pale, silent, hungry. For centuries, they’ve hidden in plain sight, behind cold eyes and warm smiles. Feeding slowly. Patiently. Silently.

From the shadows of forgotten graves and the fog-choked forests of Eastern Europe to the neon alleys of modern cities… they stalk. Blood is their curse. Immortality is their prison.

Vampires.

You’ve heard the stories… bu...

They walk among us in the daylight: smiling, laughing, breathing, just like you. Their skin is warm, their voices soft. But when the sun dips below the horizon… the illusion fades.

Beneath the veil of flesh lies something far more terrifying… bones painted in colors of the damned, skulls etched with the spirits of the lost. They are the cursed children of the Nightbloom, bound by an ancient hex, doomed to hunt the living as night f...

They say she waits… in the dark… behind the glass. Her name is a whisper on the lips of the brave… or the foolish.

They say if you stand in front of a mirror, in the dead of night, and whisper her name three times… she’ll appear. A bloodied face. A vengeful scream. A chilling fate awaiting those who dare summon her.

What is it about a name that calls the dead? A forgotten queen drowning in blood? A witch seeking vengeance? Or somet...

From ancient folklore to modern nightmares, the Boogeyman has haunted our collective fears for centuries. He’s the monster under the bed, the shadow in the corner of your room, the thing you hear breathing when you’re supposed to be alone.

They say he’s just a story… a whisper in the dark to keep children in line. But what if the Boogeyman is real? What if he’s always been here, watching… waiting… hiding in the shadows just beyond ...

For centuries, they have haunted our legends… whispered through fire-lit tales and carved into the stone of ancient ruins. Some call them myths fantasies spun from fear. But what if the truth is far more terrifying? What if the dragons of old were real… and they never truly vanished?

But myths don’t leave behind scorched earth. Legends don’t carve their shadows into the bones of lost civilizations. And fear, real fear… doesn’t come...

Last season, we opened the first journal. We thought we were uncovering old stories — instead, we awakened something.

Now… more journals have surfaced. Pages soaked in blood, inked in desperation, hidden for centuries by those who knew too much. Each one pointing to monsters the world still refuses to believe in. But denial doesn’t make them disappear.

Welcome back to Project: Black Garden, A Monsters & Myths Podcast, Season 2:...

From the dark rituals of Haitian Vodou to the fast-moving terrors of modern apocalypses, we’ll uncover the origins, legends, and science behind the undead. Are they mindless monsters - or mirrors of our own fears and flaws?

Zombies. They’ve stalked our nightmares for centuries. Ancient folklore. Voodoo curses. Biological nightmares. Apocalypse warnings. They’re not just fiction… they’re a reflection of us. Mindless… ravenous… unst...
