I would like to thank you for putting a human face on the vicims of the disapperances in Mexico. I've got a nephew (now missing over 4 years) and we've slowly come to the realization that we will never see him again (alive or dead). It's difficult when so many look away.

I can't put into words how much I appreciate your style in making these videos - no jumpscare noises, no creepy background music, no screams halfway through the videos that make your heart stop and give you a bunch of instant anxiety and panic. You're honestly the only narrator I could ever listen to and *actually* calm down while listeing to scary stories. Thank you so much for all your hard work and effort 🖤

"I just can't trust myself around women", almost immediately followed by, "can I come over?" might be the most sociopathic thing I've ever heard.

[uhhhopi]

literally was scrolling through your channel trying to find a video i hadn’t watched before but couldn’t find one, so the timing of this upload was absolutely perfect. looking forward to this one!! thank you :) sleep well everyone if you’re going to bed <3

As a Spanish man, the 1st story hurts me. My heart goes out to all my Latino brothers and sisters. Yahuah bless. Bendicion.

[simpindulgence]

Thank you for shedding light on what's going on in Mexico. There's only so much the mainstream outlets can broadcast. Stay safe, friend.

I'm eternally grateful to Joel for making the last 5 yrs of my insomnia so much better ❤️ he's truly the best narrator on YouTube

[derekrobertson]

Only Joel can tell the scariest stories that can scare us while calming our minds at the same time.

It’s crazy how corrupt Mexico truly is. Listening to the second story made me so grateful my family moved. They’re from Veracruz and that story just broke my heart.. knowing my loved ones could’ve undergone all that pain and trouble for no reason whatsoever is heartbreaking. It’s easier said than done but there needs to be an end to all that madness. How many more lives need to be lost for the sake of money and power. My heart truly goes out to any victims and their families❤

[purplepianoist]

Time to listen as I put my kids to bed! This is my biggest hack to staying calm no matter how long bedtime takes. Thank you for all your hard work Joel!

[alimartin]

I don't understand how people can trust going down south to Mexico on vacation. I am of Hispanic origin and I would never go on vacation nor trust any resort. I have heard so many horrible stories and even tourist homicide cases stories in the news.
It's scary.

Stories start at 1:39 if you wanting to quickly start relaxing

the way you pronounce “melbourne” gives my australian heart so much joy. 💕

“It’s not like I was just being nosy, and going through his stuff” ~ I was just being nosy, and going through his stuff. 😂

Can you narrate more paranormal stories? I miss them on your channel. And because of your voice, I come here often.

[robynsmith]

Joel, WOW, a 2 1/2 hour video?!?! Thank you, thank you, thank you! I have to look no further, YOU are the rest of my evening! Seriously, thank you SO MUCH for putting in all of the hard work and time into your channel so you can upload beautiful gems like this one for us! I hope you have a great night and are staying happy and healthy! 😁
Love from Texas ♥️🤠🌴

[mattyb]

Man I have a true respect for how much content you’re able to pump out. You’re a great narrator and have helped me get to sleep many times (no offense) love the stories. Keep it up!

[chrisgreene]

Best narrator among the competition. Your pacing while reading works

[rdac]

Your stories are so addictive that I need a let's read fix daily to be satisfied

"Yeah we found a dead mangled body of a person who was murdered but pity us, our romantic vacation was ruined"
So inconsiderate
