Fairground Frights: 7 Carnival Nightmares

Here come the lights, the laughter… and the dread. “Fairground Frights” is a bumper-pack of seven horror stories from Weekly Spooky that turns the carnival midway into a gauntlet of cursed curios, vengeful spirits, and wishes you’ll regret the second you make them. Step into a clown’s funeral where the punchline won’t stay buried. Duck into a toy store after dark, where smiling dolls sharpen their grins. Beat an unbeatable arcade cabinet that might be playing you. Get lost in a mansion’s velvet-dark corridors, run afoul of a man named Jerry who won’t stay down, bargain with a devil you didn’t mean to summon, and tour a museum of artifacts that should never be cataloged.

If you love horror anthologies, creepy clowns, haunted attractions, cursed objects, and theme-park terror, this episode’s for you. It’s perfect for September chills and Halloween build-up—packed with creepy carnival vibes, midnight-movie mood, and the kind of campfire storytelling that makes you keep one eye on the shadows. New to Weekly Spooky? Start here: it’s a self-contained thrill ride with killer pacing, atmospheric sound design, and seven complete, binge-worthy tales. Hit play, throw on your headphones, and let’s go get lost on the midway.
