The Dark Line
17 episodes Last Updated: May 14, 25
The Dark Line is a weekly paranormal podcast, releasing every Wednesday, where we invite listeners to share their true—and truly chilling—experiences with Ghostly Calls, Cryptid Sightings, Unanswered Mysteries, and the Unexplained.
Each episode features three voicemails from people who've witnessed something they can't explain. Some are terrified. Others are skeptical. But all are haunting.
Hosted by Sophia Thompson, a psychology-minded medical student, and Wylder Graves, a believer in ancient mysteries and the paranormal, the show unpacks each story from two distinct perspectives—scientific and supernatural.
Narrated by the enigmatic Damian Talbott, whose haunting tone sets the stage, The Dark Line blends mystery, mood, and meaning into an immersive audio experience.
Real people. Real locations. True encounters… and the strange space between—names withheld, identities protected.
Knocking when no one is there.Imaginary friends… who aren't imaginary.Strange lights in the sky, followed by hours that vanish.A ghost in a graveyard who just wants to be remembered.
These are just some of the types of calls that rang through the static… crossing the wire, and answered by The Dark Line.
