I am always looking for some good podcasts. I would love to find some stuff that have creepy/scary/horror undertones and am not having a lot of luck.

Some stuff that I would like to find would include:  
[ul]  
[li]People telling personal ghost stories/weird tales[/li][li]Something similar to “Morbid Fact of the Day”[/li][li]People reading Mortified style personal stories[/li][/ul]  
Anyone know of anything good?

It’s not quite what you’re asking for, but there’s [Pseudopod](http://pseudopod.org/), a weekly podcast of short fiction horror stories. I don’t listen to it myself since I’m normally not a fan of horror stories unless they happen to be really good (though I’ll happily gobble up the corniest fantasy and scifi). I tried a few episodes and was underwhelmed. But it’s something you might want to check out.

They talk about real life ghost stories and urban legends.

I’ve found some episodes really good some turn into typical podcast tedium.
