Hi Hello Welcome! I'm your host Emma and this is my podcast. If you want to listen to things that keep me up at night then this podcast might just be for you. This pod will include things such as Ghost stories, True crime, existential crises, and sometimes even just chatting.
Hi, Hello, Welcome! This is the Dead Awake Podcast and I am your host Emma. In this episode I am sharing my own paranormal experiences...at least what I can remember LOL. I do apologize that I have been away for some time but life was just doing its things and in that time I realized what I want for this podcast and while yes I want to be a great podcaster and upload atleast once a week, I am still getting the hang of things and id rather get my information out there with time and accuracy . Youll also notice that there is no video for this one but I promise that will not be a normal thing.
With all of that being said though...
If you enjoy spooky late-night thoughts—whether it’s true crime, paranormal encounters, or the strange and unexplained—then you’re in the right place.
Have feedback, episode ideas, or a story of your own you’d like me to share? You can always reach me at deadawakepodcast@gmail.com or DM me on Instagram @deadawakepod. I love hearing from you!

Hi Hello Welcome!
The disappearance of the Yuba County Five is one of the most chilling unsolved mysteries in American history. In 1978, five friends vanished after a basketball game in Chico, California.

In this episode, we explore:
Who the Yuba County Five were
The strange discovery of their abandoned car
Eyewitness accounts of mysterious figures that night
The haunting discoveries months later
Why this case still baffles investigators today
Was it an accident, foul play, or something even stranger? Let’s dive in.
