Reverie True Crime
535 episodes - English - Latest episode: 3 months ago - ★★★★★ - 280 ratingsReverie means to daydream but sometimes when we zone out, our anxiety and intrusive thoughts can creep in. We might start to think about our anxieties and worst fears. Sometimes we get caught up in obscure thoughts about disturbing events occurring, or that have occurred, in the world. As humans, we can naturally become curious about these horrible happenings in life.
Paige narrates stories of crimes, sits down and talks with victims' loved ones, chats with other podcasters, survivors, and occasionally tells haunting, creepy stories. She is passionate about all aspects of these true stories. Shedding light on the dark, terrifying things that have happened, and still happen in the world, is very important to her.
Paige hopes that through these stories she can bring awareness to injustices, important issues, and evil deeds that have taken place all around the world.
