Beware, these scary stories will transform you! The Creeping Hour podcast is an 8-episode horror anthology series hosted by the Creeps, three friends who listened to too many scary stories and turned into monsters themselves. It was GBH’s first foray into the podcast arena for young audiences and resulted in countless lessons about podcast writing, production and distribution that have since informed projects in the GBH/PBS Children’s Media (8 and under) space.
