Noir Frequency

Noir Frequency

Noir Frequency is a late–night transmission about fear, folklore, and the stories we tell ourselves when the lights go out. Each episode follows the places where myth, history, science, and paranoia overlap. We open case files and campfire tales side by side, tracing how belief moves through culture: playground dares, classified memos, urban legends, declassified experiments, and the strange things our minds do in the dark. Tune in, follow the signal, and stay long enough to let the questions sink in. Support the signal: ⁠https://patreon.com/noirfrequency⁠ ⁠https://noirfrequency.com

What if everything you see, feel, and know is not real?
In this episode of Noir Frequency, we descend into the unsettling depths of the Simulation Hypothesis.

Beyond the familiar thought experiment lies a labyrinth of darker possibilities—where questions of meaning, morality, and control begin to erode the ground beneath us.

Who might build such a world, and for what purpose? What happens when belief in the simulation becomes a tool f...

In the late summer of 1977, in a modest council house in North London, a single mother dialed the police—not to report a break-in, but something stranger. Something ancient. What followed would become one of the most documented, divisive, and disturbing hauntings in modern history.

This episode enters the charged stillness of 284 Green Street, where knocks in the night, flying objects, and a voice that did not belong to a child tran...

In this episode of Noir Frequency, we follow the shadow of Bloody Mary—from her whispered beginnings in candlelit parlors to the flickering screens of modern folklore. Part myth, part mirror, she reflects more than fear. She reflects us.

We explore the deep roots of this ritual: Victorian divination, adolescent rites of passage, and the psychological mechanisms that make mirrors feel haunted. We trace her many faces—queen, witch, vi...

This episode opens the declassified trail behind America’s Cold War psychic spy program and the Soviet push into “psychotronics.” From Stanford Research Institute to Fort Meade, from Ingo Swann’s remote viewing sessions to Nina Kulagina’s alleged psychokinesis, we follow the paper, the money, and the fear that kept Project Stargate alive for two decades.
You’ll hear how Soviet rumors of telepathy and mind control triggered a U.S...

You’re alone. Exhausted. Near death.
And then—someone is with you.

In this episode of Noir Frequency, we follow the footprints of the “Third Man”—through Antarctic expeditions, solo climbs, shipwrecks, grief, prayer, and m...

They always promise salvation. They always begin with the end.

From Jonestown to Heaven’s Gate to the Order of the Solar Temple, apocalyptic belief has been the cornerstone of some of the most infamous cults in modern history. In this episode of Noir Frequency, we explore why end-times prophecy is so effective at drawing people in—and how it’s used to control, isolate, and ultimately destroy.

We dive into the psychology of doomsday, ...

They remember it too—just like you. A logo that looked different. A quote that was never said. A man who died… twice.

In this episode of Noir Frequency, we dig into the strange phenomenon known as the Mandela Effect: shared false memories that seem to rewrite history for entire groups of people. Is it just a quirk of human memory, or a sign that something deeper—something stranger—is at play?

From psychological studies to simulation ...

You wake in the dark, frozen. There’s something at the foot of your bed. Watching.

This episode of Noir Frequency explores the phenomenon of Shadow People—dark, silent figures reported across centuries and cultures. From sleep paralysis to folklore, pareidolia to djinn, we trace their shape through science, myth, and the blurred edges of consciousness.

Are they hallucinations sparked by a stressed brain in low light?

Or have we always...

The Satanic Panic wasn’t a fringe conspiracy—it was a national movement, powered by fear, media, and the illusion of protection.

This episode of Noir Frequency traces the panic from its origin in Michelle Remembers, through the McMartin preschool trial, Dungeons & Dragons, heavy metal, horror films, and into today’s battles over books, identity, and speech.

We explore how real crimes were used to justify imagined conspiracies, ho...

    Betrayal Season 5

    Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
