That story, about the dude getting his dead dad's watch stolen, made me cry. My daddy died a few years ago and all I have is his necklace and wedding ring, so I can surely sympathize with this dude.
It made me sad too, reminded me of a ring I had that used to belong to my grandmother. I pawned it when I was at rock bottom addiction and I don’t think I’ll ever forgive myself for it.
My friends and I started hitching at about 12 years old, we are in our late 60's early 70's and not a single one of us ever had any troubles. We never wore shoes either!! Lol ✌
Story 5 is the perfect example of consequences of your actions. Even if you do something bad and don't get caught, you will remember what you did for the rest of your life and have to live with the guilt of it. I think back on bad things I've done and it hurts. This guy beat a man to death or close to it and now he's being tortured by the guilt. You have to be careful about the choices you make. You will have to live with what you did for the rest of your life.
You’re right. I could never hurt another human being deliberately. My consciousness will haunt me for the rest of my life. It’s just a dirty feeling inside that remains with you. That’s why I don’t disrespect people and treat them as I would want to be treated. However, I’m not naïve. I’m not trustworthy of people unless i grow to know the person. At my age, my best friend is my dog.
Joel….you are hands down, the absolute best narrator in all of RUclips land. You have been blessed with such a unique gift to tell every story that passes your lips as if you had experienced it personally. I’ve yet to find anyone that even comes close your talent. Anyways, I know you’ll probably never read this comment but bc your comforting voice has become my reliable bedtime companion, I felt it was time to let you know how appreciated you are. Thank you for all of your hard work and consistent uploads. You’re most def the “Gold Standard” in your field of expertise👍🏼
@꧁WupperElfe꧂ I didn't know that. Damn! I liked when the psycho wife kicked it! I should've known, real life miscreants never get natural justice, or so it seems to me.
Didn't he do a podcast last night, too? I'm not trusting myself because I'm really sick with a sinus infection and these sinus meds are making me dopey. 😂😭💀
You sound sick 🥺 I hope you’re feeling ok. I was so sick last week and didn’t sleep for two days and listened on Patreon non-stop. Thank you for helping me get through it with some semblance of sanity left
I've been debating on telling a story that happened to me years back. I've never shared with anyone but a few ppl. But I've nvr been able to tell the full story to anyone. I will try to find the time one day to do so. Thank you to those who've been brave enough to share their stories.
I’ve been hoping to do the same thing. I’m ready, but I haven’t had the time to sit and write it down. I write a lot of things off the top of my head but, my own story, I don’t want to do halfway. I’m an over the top perfectionist, when it comes to my own work. Maybe we should both just TRY doing it (if you haven’t). No pressure to hit, “send.” That would be one step closer. Good luck to you! I would definitely read yours.
Whenever I want to take a nap or fall asleep for the night you’re the first channel I run to, so this is perfect timing! Thank you so much for all that you do 💗
Story 5- close to home. After years of addiction I honestly found out, then "forgot" about the brutal murder of a friend. After I got sober I thought I would contact her.. which made me think about that crazy dream where she was dead... but a quick search confirmed it was no dream. I still feel guilty. she deserves to be remembered fondly. It's just unbelievable I blocked that... Hopefully I haven't "forgotten" anything else
Same… heroin. Many of us with SUD hold onto secrets in the dark recesses of our minds, where memories of unmentionable things done, witnessed, endured, learned about, &/or suspected from before we began our recovery are locked up tightly.
@@tdez6060 a close friend from high school was murdered by her neighbor. I heard about it when I was using.. and I just.. blocked it I guess. I thought I just had a vivid nightmare that she died.. it was like deja vu, finding out a second time she really was dead
@@RuinedTemple yeah.. I've had other memories come to the forefront of my mind.. just buried so deep I hadn't accessed them in years. It's scary knowing your perception of your life might not be an accurate truth 🤯
I live in the middle of nowhere. I LOVE the privacy , however we recently have had to install cameras because people have been setting up tents and attempting to live in our woods . They are included on my property ,and i wouldn't mind if they were staying far in the back. Ppl fall on hard times. BUT it became a problem when they decided to cross the line and start stealing and leaving needles and baggies all over the place. They dropped this stuff on my patio stealing planters . Fr planters for plants, wtf steals that? And runs off , or run stumbles off to the woods , dropping their nasty needles. Luckily , I live in a stand your ground state should they decide to break INTO my home. The sheriffs do nothing but tell them to leave. They came back. So cameras are up.
I completely agree with you. If those people set up camp in the far end of your property, kept the area clean and also kept to themselves without disturbing you, your family, and or property, then it wouldn’t be a big deal. But like always, people have zero respect for the next person especially when they’re squatting on your land, and so I don’t blame you for putting up cameras and tightening up your security. If it was me, and they had started to steal and leave their nasty needles and whatever else on my property, I would grab my shotgun and forcefully tell them to leave permanently. If the local sheriff and local law enforcement don’t want to do anything than I’d be more than happy to remove them from my land. Im sorry if I’m ranting a bit, it just burns me up when people push their luck, over stay their welcome, and just act downright completely disrespectful. I hope you haven’t had anymore problems with these squatting junkies and that you, your family, and property has remained safe. Hopefully you got rid of them. Anyways, I totally feel for your situation and I wish you all the best. Take care.
@@archangel5627 we actually had a bear and we have not seen anyone in a week 🤣 no they didn't get eaten. But they did get freaked out and took off. I'm sure they'll be back. But I will be prepared
Joel, thanks for being the best narrator out there. I broke my leg in several places last week and had to have surgery, so I’ve been completely laid up. It’s a blessing you’ve uploaded so many stories I can listen to while being gimpy lol… ♥️
Thanks again, for sharing, Joel.. so glad that I can listen to you at my leisure... No longer do I have to creep out your door and wait with my tape recorder.
That sounds about right. Everyone knows there's a huge gap in sentencing between races, but what they don't talk about much is that the sentencing gap between genders is SIX TIMES as big as the racial gap.
@Veladus - That has been studied many times and there are no discrepancies in sentencing between races. Generally, when you see someone online using an example of something like ‘this black person received 10 years for this crime and this white person only received 2 years for the same crime’, they’re ignoring that the person that got 10 had 5 prior felony convictions while the person that got 2 had none.
As always my favourite voice on the interwebs is buttery soft and soothing! Thanks again Joel for getting me through my second Covid infection. I can live without my sense of smell and taste, but not my hearing 🙌🏻. Team butter socks forever 😉.
The guy that got stabbed seems like such a sweetheart, though I have to disagree with his sentiment that his ex didn't deserve to die of COVID. Someone who is so cowardly that they'd drug their spouse and stab him in his sleep definitely does not deserve to remain on this Earth.
I agree. I wouldn't worry over her! All you could really say is she's now gone and nothing else sounds! It sounds like he did actually have some feelings for her.
@Nothing happens You can look at the death rate for this virus on the CDC official website and see that it is barely deadlier than the flu. they also got busted counting people who died WITH Covid as Covid deaths numerous times
You can also look at the US annual death rate and compare it to pre Covid era and see that it hasn’t changed. You can literally go look it up right now
Story 6 about the supposed lake of dead animals that seemingly vanished, is for me the most terrifying. It's obvious, if true, that there was some kind of corporate or government entity responsible. Despite if the story is true or not, the fact remains that mass corruption runs rampant at the highest levels of power. If you don't agree, then obviously it would be a waste of time trying to convince you otherwise. All I know is that those who hold all the money are the ones who control the world, and you don't become as wealthy as they are by being charitable and selfless. It's quite the contrary. The addiction to money, in my opinion, is far more damaging and dangerous than all the substance addictions combined, and will inevitably be humanity's undoing.
Joel I love you ❤️❤️ I literally just got into bed and now I have a fresh bedtime story as well . Thank you and get well soon I hear it ☺️ but , but you still sound amazing !
I have listen to tons of stories on this channel. Although many have made me feel some kind of emotion, mostly fear, anger, creeps, sadness, even relief. The story of the watch stolen in Mexico really almost brought me to tears. I love this channel and thank you all so much for the hours on end of stories to listen to from the time that I wake until I pass out. Lol
I just got a puppy who is still learning to adjust to being crated at night, and will whine and whine. I noticed that after I put on these videos, her whining quickly peters out. I don't know if this is a coincidence and training is going well, or if Joel has a miracle voice. I think we all know it's the latter.
Is.... That some american thing? Kinda reminds me of other things americans do to their pets (like bathing cats for no reason, or declawing) that are just horrible to most others but normal to them...
@@rogthepirate4593 Crating, when done right, is actually a good thing. It's their little den, where they feel safe. My dog loves her pen! Right now she's on my bed though.
@@rdred8693 I dunno, seems to me like the same effect could easily be achieved with a regular pet bed ... The necessity of what amounts to a cage is what I don't get.
The best thing about my morning is opening my RUclips app to find a new video. I don’t know how this slipped my routine but I’m glad it came up! Oldies are great to listen to, too!
I wish I could make it to the scary parts before I fall asleep. Not that I'm complaining, lifelong insomnia. Your voice has been a gift to my overall sanity. So thanks for what you do.
Great timing, I'm so addicted to your channel it's all I listen to now Thank you so much for your hard work and dedication ❤ Hope you feel better soon !!
The guy on the Alicia story must've really loved her enough to understand how she is and sympathize with her not seeing her kids even though she literally drove a knife to his chest
Hi there, everytime I watched video like that, even though I'm just a simple person, I always glorify & thank God, because I have never killed anyone in my whole life.
Abusees can't always łeave for fear they will be attacked AFTER they leave. Also, family court is a nightmare for some people. I left and divorced but I don't shame anyone who literally cannot go.
Thank you so much for all the quick new content! I usually listen to this while I go to sleep every night. Keep up the great work man. It's much appreciated from all your fans.
Omg. Do not give up or put ur life on hold for another. If it’s meant to be, it will survive anything. Even distance. If you aren’t the best version of yourself, you’ll never make anyone else, or yourself, happy.
Funnily enough, story 4 about "alicia" reminds me about a girl I live in my complex with who's the same just much younger from the sound of the narration 🥴 Found this channel by chance with the disturbing song backstory videos (love them, would love to see more!) And this channel is getting me entirely through my covid isolation. Cant wait to have a binge through the entire video backlog on this channel
I have to say, I have enjoyed listening to many of your story compilations and have given a 👍, but this is the first time I've commented. It's because I enjoy your narration so much, that I have to listen to more! You have the perfect narrative voice and I become so completely immersed in each story, that I just want more. Also, each story is thrilling and right to the point. I am so glad I found your channel. Thank you!
I'm always thrilled to discover new releases from you, Joel! You have covertly snuck your way into becoming one of my solid favorite narrators! You are easy to listen to! Thanks for entertaining our harmless twisted little minds...lol
I live in the literal wilderness in heavy timber in Montana and I definitely have middle of nowhere stories. I’ve been alone out here 10 days and it can wear on you.
In the 80's I often spent my winters, as the winter caretaker of a remote hunting lodge on the north sideof the Alaska range, in the shadows of McKinley. There were no roads, summer or winter. Fly in only. It was just me, a woman in her teens at the start, to early 20s and her 2 dogs. What I got from it was the knowledge that I was capable of dealing with anything that came my way without anyone to help me or do it for me. I also learned I don't need others to keep me entertained. I am happy and content with my own company. It has given me a strong core to build the rest of my life from. It is why this pandemic, quarenteen, and mayhem isn't making me a stir crazy mess. Take this time separated to look inside yourself. Assess the things that you like and dislike about yourself and use it to make changes that will bring you where you want to be.
These stories are not bedtime stories... Your great at telling your stories and as always they keep me on edge... Keep up the great work luv ur voice and scary tales....👍😊
You probably find me annoying but I’d like to say that you are one of my favorite narrators. My Mom passed last week and it has been so tough but these videos help keep my mind occupied. Thanks for all you do!
As someone who lives in the upper midwest like in story 6, it couldve been Hemorrhagic Disease in the deer; its a disease caused by certain biting flies, and it causes deer to get thirsty and drink a lot of water so a lot of dead deer are found in and around ponds and lakes. Not sure about if they fill them in or not, but we have two retention ponds behnd us and we have to call the wildlife foundation to get them to remove the dead deer around the ponds when they get the disease every few years. Hope that clears up some of the spookiness!
Story 4, the man that was attacked by his wife, he sounds like the most forgiving man ever, story 5, the storyteller ends with a message of hope. Will people ever learn to stay away from drugs?

"I decided to hitch hike"...the first .. sentence of something horrible...

Hitch hiking these days is just asking for a bad ending. You would have to be desperate or an idiot to do it.

I seriously thought that too. I was glad to hear the bitch died. She won't be out trying to further get in his head or harm their daughters!
I can finally fall asleep peacefully now I have my bedtime stories
😄 I think we are the crazy minority on here
@@abbi01 It's at least common enough that a lot of horror narrators put it in their title though!
The guy on the Alicia story must've really loved her enough to understand how she is and sympathize with her not seeing her kids even though she literally drove a knife to his chest
He's better than I am. I was married to an abusive narcissist too and had kids with him. I can't bring myself to forgive him for hurting my kids.
Absolutely amazing work! You are definitely the KING of bedtime stories in my eyes.. 🤩
Phantom Librarian is the KING Narrator…listen to his playlist on his channel. Thank me later
Hi there, everytime I watched video
like that, even though I'm just a
simple person, I always glorify &
thank God, because I have never
killed anyone in my whole life.
I’m obsessed w your content!!
A so agree you have the best narrating voices on You tube. Keep the story's coming thank you.😃😃
Just in time! I just started cooking dinner and love listening while I do so on my headphones.
Story 4, why can't people just break up/divorce/leave each other instead of trying to kill the other partner? Jesus, so glad she went to jail. 😧
don't want the spouse to take the kids.
Abusees can't always łeave for fear they will be attacked AFTER they leave. Also, family court is a nightmare for some people. I left and divorced but I don't shame anyone who literally cannot go.
Yes, yes, yes, thank u!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much for all the quick new content! I usually listen to this while I go to sleep every night. Keep up the great work man. It's much appreciated from all your fans.
You and Lazy are my top 2 favorites to fall asleep to. Thank you.
Hope you’re feeling better Joel! Keep up the great work! 😊
This RUclips channel gets me through work everyday 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Lovin' you Let's Read❤ Thank you for being here!!
Story #6 is going to drive me nuts!! I want answers!!
Glad to be off work making dinner and listening to Lets Read!!!!!!!!
Omg. Do not give up or put ur life on hold for another. If it’s meant to be, it will survive anything. Even distance. If you aren’t the best version of yourself, you’ll never make anyone else, or yourself, happy.
Funnily enough, story 4 about "alicia" reminds me about a girl I live in my complex with who's the same just much younger from the sound of the narration 🥴
Found this channel by chance with the disturbing song backstory videos (love them, would love to see more!) And this channel is getting me entirely through my covid isolation. Cant wait to have a binge through the entire video backlog on this channel

I have to say, I have enjoyed listening to many of your story compilations and have given a 👍, but this is the first time I've commented. It's because I enjoy your narration so much, that I have to listen to more! You have the perfect narrative voice and I become so completely immersed in each story, that I just want more. Also, each story is thrilling and right to the point. I am so glad I found your channel. Thank you!
I hope you'll get well soon! It sounds like you're sick but you're able to narrate so well nonetheless. Thank you for making these!
Out of all the places we could be right now we are watching this video god bless everyone and enjoy the rest of ur life hope it’s a good one
I'm always thrilled to discover new releases from you, Joel! You have covertly snuck your way into becoming one of my solid favorite narrators! You are easy to listen to! Thanks for entertaining our harmless twisted little minds...lol
I love listening to these while working.
The "never grow old" phrase feels like it's telling me that I'm gonna die young...
I don't understand that saying! The implications weird me out. 😖
@@candiedpandie stay youthful at heart
I hope the father met and found a new love to grow old with-he is an extraordinary human being
“I could feel the heat of his engine on my back”…either the homie can run real fast or that dudes truck is slow af.
Perfect. I have a 4 hour drive by myself from Phoenix az to heber ca. It’s getting dark. the road is mostly empty. This should be fun!
New subscriber here 🙋♀️ .... im addicted to these scary stories 😊
I live in the literal wilderness in heavy timber in Montana and I definitely have middle of nowhere stories. I’ve been alone out here 10 days and it can wear on you.

In the 80's I often spent my winters, as the winter caretaker of a remote hunting lodge on the north sideof the Alaska range, in the shadows of McKinley. There were no roads, summer or winter. Fly in only. It was just me, a woman in her teens at the start, to early 20s and her 2 dogs. What I got from it was the knowledge that I was capable of dealing with anything that came my way without anyone to help me or do it for me. I also learned I don't need others to keep me entertained. I am happy and content with my own company. It has given me a strong core to build the rest of my life from. It is why this pandemic, quarenteen, and mayhem isn't making me a stir crazy mess. Take this time separated to look inside yourself. Assess the things that you like and dislike about yourself and use it to make changes that will bring you where you want to be.
These stories are not bedtime stories... Your great at telling your stories and as always they keep me on edge... Keep up the great work luv ur voice and scary tales....👍😊
And just like that, my rainy day is complete!
You probably find me annoying but I’d like to say that you are one of my favorite narrators. My Mom passed last week and it has been so tough but these videos help keep my mind occupied. Thanks for all you do!
my mom passed too. hardest thing Ive ever been through. keep your head up 🖤
As someone who lives in the upper midwest like in story 6, it couldve been Hemorrhagic Disease in the deer; its a disease caused by certain biting flies, and it causes deer to get thirsty and drink a lot of water so a lot of dead deer are found in and around ponds and lakes. Not sure about if they fill them in or not, but we have two retention ponds behnd us and we have to call the wildlife foundation to get them to remove the dead deer around the ponds when they get the disease every few years. Hope that clears up some of the spookiness!
is this true ??
Then why did the friend avoid him so much? I really really want to know what happened.
Story 4, the man that was attacked by his wife, he sounds like the most forgiving man ever, story 5, the storyteller ends with a message of hope. Will people ever learn to stay away from drugs?
The best, best, best narrator by far! Hope you’re feeling better!
I like the narration of these videos
Thought provoking stories. Well. Done. Glad I found your channel. Thank you!
I'm so glad you're ok, you're a wonderful human being and an amazing husband to the right woman
Perfect timing for sleep
Your videos are always the ones I click immediately before any others! Thank you Joel!👻
I'm so happy, for today my birthday present showed up! Not 1 but 2, yes 2, hoodies! Purrdeep 2 & 3, just need the first. ❤🎉
Sending prayers
Thank you.
Come on everyone (let's read) and start (being scared) the 2 best narrator's in RUclips land that helps calm down my anxiety and have a good night's sleep
You’re wrong my friend….Listen to Phantom Librarian playlist…..Thank me later.
@@jwminor12 I'll give it a try but right now in my opinion they are but yeah I'll give it a go cheers 👊
Its really good .. I enjoyed it.. Thank you!
You gotta have the best narration on RUclips i like the way u don’t try to sound dramatic or try to act out what the person is feeling u sound cold hearted I guess
Not to sound like a creep… I noticed the other day you sounding like you were getting sick. Don’t get me wrong, I appreciate you uploading, you are my fav here and on chilling. Buuuuuut, I hope you’re taking care of you and feel/get well soon!🧸🎈💌
#5.. I bet he was working the 12 steps and this was a part of making amends..
Thanks for everything you do Joel. My favorite voice out there 😍
Your amazing, thank you for your hard work👏❤️
First video I listen to this week I've passed out before finding anything to listen to.
The guy in the Alicia story is a saint, wow. :( So glad his girls have him.
Scared a fun felling and it's even better when the 1 trying 2 scare ends up scared themselves.
I love your narrations, your voice is perfect for horror! I love all your content on RUclips and Spotify
Perfect. Night everyone. Creepy dreams.
This is awesome! Just discovered this page because I was listening to Sketchy Stories and when the video ended this one came on i love it!
