Show Notes
Routine is supposed to make life feel safe - the school run, the familiar streets, the predictable rhythm of weekday mornings. But for one exhausted young mother, routine becomes the perfect hunting ground for something that shouldn’t exist.
In this unnerving spooky story, a white van begins appearing behind the her car every morning. Not close. Not threatening. Just there — two cars back, turning when she turns, idling when she idles. At first, she rationalizes it. Then she tests it. And when the van follows her through three pointless right turns, the fear becomes impossible to ignore.
What follows is a slow, suffocating descent into obsession.
Was it a stalker? A vehicle with a fake plate? Or something that slips through the blind spots of ordinary life, feeding on patterns, waiting to be noticed?
For listeners who love slow‑burn paranoia, uncanny everyday horror, and stories where the mundane becomes monstrous, this episode lingers long after the engine goes quiet.
Not for kids - listener discretion advised.
