    Used to be great.
    Season 1 listener This show used to be amazing. I’d say after season 15 it just lost its touch. Older seasons used to give you chills and the WOW factor. But now most stories drag on and you’re left wondering “how is this a horror podcast?” Long drawn out boring stories. Also they now always have to put a very biased political stance in quite a few shows. Any story narrated by Erika Sanderson is just terrible. She ruins every story and her voice is annoying.

    Been a listener for years I absolutely love all the stories and especially the cast! The Halloween episodes and the Christmas ones are great too. Keep it up.

    Earlier seasons far better
    Another review states season 8 and earlier is far better content, I agree. I also agree the creator of the show was far more responsive at an earlier time. The new model for subscription is horrible and those of us that have paid for earlier seasons (roughly $20 a season) lost all access to this content, and yes, absolutely no response when reaching out and asking for access to these seasons. It’s great you want to implement a new system, but it shouldn’t penalize those of us they paid for access in the past. The audio files should be accessible to those of us that made this investment. Content all bleeds quality as time went on. Earlier stories were excellent, very difficult to find that same quality in then recent years.

    Love it
    This is my favorite podcast. I listen to other horror podcasts but every time I am about to listen to this one I get extra excited I just know I am going to get creeped out. And I love that each episode has a bunch of stories and that they are pretty short and get to the point pretty fast. So I get a lot of enjoyment from just one episode. Keep it going! Never stop!

    Content and Management Issues - Give This One a Miss
    With the move to a new subscription based model, I would not recommend this podcast any longer. This is compounded by the appalling lack of response from the creators regarding the loss of the previously purchased seasons. Over the years I purchase every season, happy to support a creative outlet I enjoyed. I have been unable to access those purchase for months, the creators do not respond, and the best case scenario is I will eventually have a limited time to download my purchases before losing access forever. At this point, I am only paying for a subscription to (hopefully) download these missing episodes before unsubscribing forever. I considered unsubscribing when the podcast aired a Kurt Cobain conspiracy theory fanfiction as "entertainment," but ultimately decided not to. There is a concerning lack of editing to the stories, many of which drag on far too long, and a willingness to engage in tasteless rewrites of real tragedies that I find concerning. Elisa Lam. Oklahoma Girl Scout murders. Kurt Cobain. It's gross and irresponsible.

    I have been listening to No Sleep Podcast for over 10 years. It was the very first horror podcast I found and have been a fan ever since. Love all of the voice actors.

    Spectacular
    I don’t even know what to say…I’ve been listening to this show for years but it still blows my mind. Everyone is just so TALENTED🖤

    By all that is evil!! This is an incredible story!! Would love to hear another 🖤💋 Don’t stop David Cummings!!
  • Hoghag
    Creepy yet comforting podcast, perfect for Halloween and all year round
    I really like the Tales from the Void interviews which have recently been added to this podcast. Hopefully will get a chance to see the show at some point. There is a huge catalogue of stories and not all manage to keep my attention, but occasionally there is a story that sends a shiver up my spine. Anyways I really appreciate this show and the crew. I’ve tried listening to a bunch of other horror podcasts and only this one and Lore appealed to me.

    Used to be a lot better than they are now.
    I really enjoyed and looked forward to each episode as they came out, but sadly as time went on the stories have become more and more dull as each season passes. It’s barely even horror now, it’s not scary and it reminds me if anything of a romcom. Some of their episodes genuinely used to get me a little spooked, but anymore they’re just not good and I sadly can no longer recommend this podcast. The older seasons, I’d say from S8 and backyards are worth listening to.
  • JustinLover!!!!
    Great Podcast!
    Keep up the great work! & thank you for all the hard work that goes into each production

    Season Pass Holders Screwed
    Explain to me why those of us who PURCHASED a season pass are now six months without playability and the admins will not answer a single email. It’s astonishing and kind of gross from a customer service perspective. Respond to emails, for crying out loud. Radio silence for folks who paid is not acceptable.
  • shamecock
    The best
    Honestly the best horror story podcast out there. My only gripe is that I wish the episodes were longer. I get the season pass deal and patronage but still, some of us can’t afford it and longer episodes used to be a common occurrence. Thanks for the work you all put in, great job.

    Binge Worthy
    Bro if yall like spooky stuff. This is it. So glad to have found y’all. And the wolf spider episode was super epic. Actually, every episode is epic. Totally love all the voice actors. Every single one. Keep up the great work. I have so many more stories to binge. ❤️❤️Makes my work day fly by Watch out for the fairy circles! 🦄🧚🧚‍♀️

    Woke by season 11
    Enjoyed the early seasons, but unfortunately it gets lame and woke as time goes on.

Specially please tell Nicole Good Hello and to let you know, I am still out here and my son and I still love her very much!! Love Momma Hippie!
  • Brylah
    David Cummings, you sold out.
    Why let people own previous seasons (that they already purchased but are “temporarily unavailable”) when you can force them into continuously paying for seasons by “subscribing to a premium”, right? NoSleep has become its own horror story of the modern day subscription ploy and its actually extremely disheartening to those who have been fans since 2011 and who have spent over $100.

    Best podcast ever!
    Idk where to begin I kinda discovered it late . I swear to god I was having nightmares so vivid I couldn’t sleep then first I discovered CTFDN and then this it’s been sleep saver ? (Is that even a word) I was scared to sleep and now I jut put this app on with timer and I sleep like a baby , I mean how does that even work? I’m listening to scary story to get sleep from scary dreams! I love everything about it and every cast member , now I get anxious if they don’t come up is that weird? I just want to say thank you!!

    No sleep podcast
    I love this podcast, Peter Lewis is my favorite voice actor.
  • theninetyandnine
    It’s getting better
    I’ve always loved this podcast, but season 21 is so very well written, acted, and produced it’s like a whole new tier of quality. the AI episode is one I’m definitely going to share with certain people in my life. My funereal hat is off to you, No Sleep. Especially David Ault. Love that guy.
  • Chuckles the Clown pt 2
    Quality of the stories has dropped.
    Look this podcast has never been 100% perfect but overall the stories have been griping and interesting. Worth listening to. This current season has been so dull and hard to listen to. The stories have no discernible meaning and the characters are contrived. In agreement with another reviewer, most stories lack a solid ending and kind of just trail off like an ellipsis. Also, how does have author have initial for a primary name? Every author is like JP jones or EL Smith. Cmon man.
  • GGrannyOg
    The season pass isn’t permanent
    I spent a hundred dollars on the first 11 and when it stopped working they won’t even respond. Don’t buy the season pass until they resolve this!
  • JennyTbull
    One of the best podcast out there!
    I have been listening for years! If you are looking for a spooky listen with great voice acting give this podcast a try!
  • ladyhawk!!
    Favorite horror story podcast!
    You are hands down the best horror story podcast, I love it and have listened for many years, so u can imagine my surprise when I saw u had a few one star reviews. When I read them, it was even more surprising because it wasn’t about your content at all, but rather the paying listeners unable to access content they had previously paid for?! Shame on you! I was going to sign up for your paid content but not now. That’s awful. You would have a five star rating if it wasn’t for that! I would clear that mess up and quickly if I were u. Just sayin.

    No sleep is losing its grip!
    No sleep used to be good, but now it’s just smoke and mirrors. The stories are just cheap, just hastily thrown together, without any endings anymore, and they have no thought to closure anymore, because it doesn’t take any talent to write horror with out an ending, so they are just cheap thoughtless rifts, no longer providing closure. Open ended stories, provide no entertainment and or sense. Any halfwit can write this 1st grade school nonsense. Your stories used to provide closure, but now you think you can, because you have some short lived fame, which is waining fast, that you can shovel this swill out and call it what you will. You need to find real writers of horror, and stop with these, lame stories that you dispense over and over, that are more of the same ol same, empty lines of dribble!
  • Stacy49
    Love this show been here since 2017!
    Absolutely love this show so much! Started listening to it my Sophomore year of college. It got me through so many long commutes. And now at work I enjoy listening to it during my lunch. Truly an amazing show with talented voice actors. The improvements and growth this show has had over the years truly incredible. The audio for this show is one of my favorites and don’t even get me started on the quality of the stories. A show worth listening to!
  • DuckNRun Heights BKNY
    Dishonest with quality stories/actors on the decline
    Been listening for 5 years, paid hundreds for content. Can’t access over a hundred dollars worth of content I paid for, 0 response from the podcast and they blocked me when I asked about it on the Facebook page. I’ve never had content I paid for stolen from me and then the company just ignores the customers. Wouldn’t recommend the podcast either, it goes further downhill every season. Good voice actors left and stories are mediocre at best. Definitely wouldn’t pay for anything with them. Surprised they’re this sketchy as a long time listener.
  • BurntBlonde
    Amazing!
    This podcast has the BEST stories and the best voice actors! I wish this was an anthology on Netflix or Shudder. Love it so much! So much talent, the best stories!
  • ProfPoppycock
    Denied access to previously purchased seasons
    Can’t access seasons 3-13 that I PAID FOR INDIVIDUALLY prior to their recent “Tier System”. This has been ongoing for several months now, still with no resolution.
  • Budgiemom456
    Maybe I shouldn’t have looked at the pictures!
    Gave me nightmares for 4 years, 11 months, 26 days, 3 hours, 58 minutes, and 42 seconds just from looking at the pictures! 😰
  • Dannie Review This
    Updating review for season 21
    Long time subscriber! So far season 21 has been so good! Can’t wait to see what else you all have planned this season
  • Rokursoxoff
    Locked out of purchased content
    Cannot access the package that I paid over $120 for. Can’t get anyone to respond to emails. Feels pretty messed up that they can take away content that was already purchased.
  • KingFR3AK
    Best Pod I’ve found
    This podcast is easily the best I’ve found, I started listening in 2021 during long work shift and this pod made those shifts melt away. I’m now on my second run through of the podcast and gotta say it’s really awesome going back to the beginning and being able to hear just how far the cast has come since the start. If you want a good podcast to come back to and you like stories that make your hair stand up than you found it. If I could I’d give it 10 stars
  • Katerton
    Such a good podcast
    I absolutely love this podcast! It has introduced me to so many different authors, I love the how to survive camping series. It’s such a well thought out channel and well worth the subscription.
  • P_Martinez15
    8 years and counting!
    This podcast is my favorite of all time. I have been listening for years and I just can’t get enough. I drop all other podcasts when David releases a new episode. Thank you for giving me way too many things to be afraid of. ❤️
  • SammiG..
    My favorite horror podcast
    I love the narrator and his voice acting. The stories are always amazing. So are the voice actors music.
  • Bamon0
    Locked out purchasing premium content
    Can’t access previously purchased seasons. Haven’t heard or seen an update on if or when I’ll gain access, even if to download it off their old site and host it myself. Emailed and no response. No response or update on any official channel. Absolutely ripped off. Beware the scamcast
  • Mad Megh
    Love this podcast!
    The story “Listen Right” in season 17 reminded me why I love horror podcasts. I cannot recommend No Sleep enough! I started listening in 2011 to help me stay awake when I worked night shift and I am a lifelong fan. The stories have always been excellent, but the producing has only gotten better!
  • Tmg3971
    Classic!
    The granddaddy of them all!! Voices and quality are top notch!!!
  • skinnypup
    Very hit and miss
    Earlier seasons were great but the past 5 or so not so much. The stories are bland and predictable. The actors are all very one-note. They play the same characters over and over in every tale. They have no sense of character acting at all. And David Cummings is not a good voice actor at all. He always plays it like a cartoon character with horrible accents. And the female characters are always so whiny and helplessly crying constantly. It’s so annoying and kind of insulting. The production value is good though and every once and a while you’ll get a good story but it’s few and far between.

    No Sleep: Still creepy after all these years….
    Congratulations on yet another season of keeping me up Sunday nights sans sleep.
  • voodoo808
    It started it all
    This podcast show started my love for form of entertainment. David and his talented cast for me are the best. When I think of the horror genre they are the same as the greats like Stephen King and Dean Koontz. I hope that this review helps in a small way to repay the many many times this podcast has helped me through some tough times. Keep up the great work, your show helps more than you can ever know.

    David!
    Love every episode, a new-ish fan so I’ve been working my way backwards. Really love DC’s voice, thank you for the entertainment
  • caitbyerly
    Love you, but…
    I’ve been listening for years. I love y’all so much. So, so much. But as a southerner, the attempt at a southern accent hurts me every single time😂
  • iamleonap
    Chills (in a good way)
    What an incredible collection of stories, voice actors, themes, music and sound art, diversity and inclusion. This podcast has been a comforting cornerstone for me for years and it just gets better and better. Thank you!
  • jack'd is over
    Is it me or is this podcast awful now?
    Been a fan for years but like other reviews have stated the recent episodes all feel really boring and not scary at all. At this point I can’t remember the last time I didn’t tune out or skip stories all together. It’s mostly become background noise which is sad because I used to love this podcast. I hope the story quality picks up next season.
