Sinister with Josh Zeman

Sinister with Josh Zeman explores the place where true crime, horror, and urban legends overlap. Hosted by documentary filmmaker Josh Zeman, known for Cropsey, The Killing Season, and Sons of Sam, the show investigates the crimes, myths, and cultural panics that helped shape American fear.
Each episode breaks down crimes linked to myth and media. Listeners get deep research, real sources, expert interviews, and smart analysis on cases involving long term missing persons, possible serial offenders, cult activity, satanic panic, folklore, and the stories that shaped public fear.
Sinister is a deep dive into why certain stories stick, why some cases become myths, and why horror often starts with something painfully real.
If you love podcasts about true crime, folklore, cults, conspiracy, and the darker side of storytelling, Sinister is the place to explore all of it.
