True Scary Story

In these creepy stories, Alan and Vicente Lopez recount a lifetime of unsettling, firsthand paranormal experiences from childhood, mostly centered in a small trailer where strange sounds, objects moving, shadowy figures, and unexplained sightings became routine. They describe a vivid encounter with a translucent man in a suit at age nine, repeated glimpses of a woman in white, an apparition that resembled their sister, and other eerie incidents that left lasting fear and changed how Alan sleeps to this day. You can find Edwin on TikTok, Facebook, and Instagram as @edwincovEditing and sound design by Sarah Vorhees Wendel from VW SoundStay in touch with us here: https://bio.scary.fm

It started with whispers in the dark and a figure in the bathroom mirror, but it grew into years of terrifying sleep paralysis, violent encounters, and dreams that felt more like messages from the dead.
