The Grim is a podcast and blog that explores haunted cemeteries, dark history, and true ghost stories from around the world. Host Kristin blends historical research with immersive storytelling to uncover the secrets buried beneath the stones.

Kristin Lopes is the voice behind The Grim, weaving tales of haunted pasts with the help of her husband. By day she is a software engineer; by night, a wanderer of graveyards. At home, they are joined by three loyal hounds, bound together by a love for autumn nights, old stones, and the lingering echoes of the dead.

New episodes of The Grim are released weekly, with each episode dedicated to exploring a single cemetery and the haunting stories it holds.

You can listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, and most major streaming platforms. If you can’t find us let us know!

Every episode is rooted in documented history, though some stories include folklore, eyewitness accounts, and ghostly legends passed down through generations. We clearly separate historical fact from local lore in our storytelling.

Yes! Many of the locations we cover are open to the public. But please double check before visiting for hours and dates open.
