review
I came across this show when I was looking up more info for La Siguanaba. I was immediately hooked! I found a podcast in which I can identify with the hosts and was fascinated by the many folk tales of Latin America. I did stem off to the other podcasts the Hosts have, Novelas cos cafecito (binged this one) and Historias Unknown, just for a bit. A majority of the lower star reviews complain about the giggling, joking, and side notes but I enjoy all those qualities Christina, Carmen, and MJ have brought to the show. Being scared by old folk tales and true crime is fine but when they joke around it makes it easier for my mind not to linger onto those things and I look forward to future stories. Keep it up ladies!

All over the place
This podcast has so much potential, but the fact that the “story telling” is all over the place is so frustrating. I love me some scary stories but the laughing the not making sense the unprofessionalism the stopping and making other comment's is crazy, the story doesn’t even make sense by the end I was super exited to listen but the I only got 2 episodes in and I couldn't listen anymore, how frustrating.

Love the trio!
Really enjoying the 3 of you together, and happy to see MJ back. Loved the hilarious banter and the giggles! It cracks me up when Carmen triggers a giggle fest out of everyone (including me!). 😂

My favorite podcast!!
I feel like I’m not even listening to a podcast because I feel like I’m sitting with 2 friends exchanging stories and making jokes! I love learning about these different legends, tales, and cases! I’m loving the new episodes about cults and exorcisms. It hits home because growing up as a Latina I always wondered why we have our sayings/myths, you girls explain the backstory to everything answering the questions I had since I was little. The chemistry you guys have is amazing you guys have me cracking up along and then I realize I look crazy since I work in a quiet environment and I have my headphones. Keep up the amazing work! I also love your other podcast Historias Unknown! Keep up the good work ladies your hard work is recognized and admired!🩷

Love love love
I enjoy this show. As an avid podcast listener I normally don’t enjoy all of the hosts chit chat on podcasts and just want the podcasts to get to the point…HOWEVER, it works for this show. I love the back and forth banter and I’m here for it! 🤣This is one of my go to podcasts to binge while working or doing chores. You both keep me laughing and like the host Wendy Williams used to say. You both are a “friend in my head”lol

Love the chemistry 🧪
I love these two - they bring the Espooky to every episode. I love their banter because it makes it seem like I’m hanging out with friends who are chatting about the paranormal. It also helps me feel closer to my own culture as a Mexican woman who doesn’t always get to be around mi gente. I love it.

I love everything about this podcast!
I was listening to the Pyramid and ufo stories episode and heard how someone left a bad review bc you ladies talk too much? So I immediately paused it and came to write my review because no latina slander will be allowed here lol. This podcast is so ADHD and I love it, a few of my relatives have ADHD so it’s very relatable to me. You guys remind me of my padrino who l sadly lost to Covid in 2020 💔 but he always loved telling my cousins, my siblings and me all crazy stories from back in el rancho, spooky paranormal stuff and even cartel stories (we are from Reynosa so yea 😅). Listening to y’all reminds me of sitting with my sisters and cousins back home and talking about the crazy stories that my grandpa and padrino would tell us. When I was little it would scare the crap out of me and he would always end the stories with a big laugh and say it was made up but I never believed him lol. Thank you for creating this podcast and keep being the way you are, Latinos we are loud and passionate and if people don’t like that then go listen to the boring podcasts. 🤎🤎

Love listening to them!
I love listening to these women, they make it feel like the conversations you would have with friends and family, the side tracked convos and kids in the background… just like having coffee and pan when the family gets together to share stories. I listen to them while working or doing chores!

Espooky podcast
I really enjoy listening to the podcast, it’s a mix of listener stories, and spooky Latin legends with a background/ history on them. They do chit chat in between keeping it fun and interesting, feels like you’re listening to stories with a group of friends, keep up the good work and stay espooky!

If you’re looking into spooky tales that focus on latino stories. This is the podcast for you ever since I found this podcast I’ve been binge hearing it. I love Cristina and MJs storytelling. 🤍

Enjoy the education, stay for the laughs
It’s enjoyable as i learn about new scary places. Enjoy that they can easily get distracted and start talking about something random and then come back. Similar how me and my friends converse.

Give us all the Espooky Tales you have!
I love listening to this show! I've always wanted to learn more about Latin American folklore, myths, and legends and this has helped a ton with that! Cristina and MJ have all the facts and make it all so entertaining!

The perfect combination
I was looking for Latin America legends and I found this podcast. Why is it a perfect combination? Because the same time I’m practicing my English listening skills I’m learning more about Latin America folklore. Though I’m from Brazil and we’re also in Latam, we barely hear stories from Spanish speaking countries so I’m learning a lot in here. Besides, MJ and Cristina are super cool. 10/10. Thank you guys for everything!

Espooky!
I love listening to MJ and Christina! My daughter and I listen every morning on our way to school and gives us something to talk about (she’ll be 13 next month). It feels like we’re listening to friends/family and we get spooked at times and other times laugh 😂Gracias!! Keep up the amazing work!

Extra Espooky
I love this show I love the convos and I love Carmen I can’t tell who’s who when their talking but I love the style it’s not spooky it’s more comedy for me helps me unwind when I’ve had a rough day

My review
I just love these amazing ladies and how I can relate to them being a Hispanic in a catholic household and hearing/seeing these spooky things and they’re are so funny.

Cristina and MJ are great storytellers!
I love these ladies! I love their storytelling style and the Latin American emphasis. The funny thing is I listen because of their conversations and style, the way they pull you into the story…even though I do not believe in anything espooky. 😂

Finally A Great LatinX spooky podcast
I’m so happy to have found a ghostly Latinx podcast. I always believed that Latino-America had the most spooky lore and I know I don’t know half of them. I’m glad you ladies are bringing them to light!

Excellent show!
It was an instant follow from me from the first show I listened. Cristina and MJ are so smart, funny, entertaining, and they have so much to share. Their voices are so comforting and I feel so at home, like when I was little, sitting in my bedroom, listening to family tell me stories.

Love it!
As someone who loves the paranormal, Espooky is wonderful. MJ and Cristina do a wonderful job telling Latin folklore, legends and paranormal stories. I am learning so many stories I never new before and virtually traveling to said countries. Thank you and keep it up!

It’s like I’m chatting with my primas!
Love Espooky Tales and Cristina and MJ. It feels like when I hang out with my cousins and we talk about all the stories our family would tell us growing up! But i especially love the history of all our folklore because I always wondered where these stories originate from.
