Bus rides can be a kind of meditation. Unlike on a plane, it’s hard to get work done. And unlike driving, you don’t need to pay attention or do anything active. So it’s a great chance to sit back and listen to something you enjoy, such as a podcast. One very talented podcast creator is Joseph Fink, who has written and produced a number of thoughtful, narrative, and nonfiction podcasts that are totally binge-worthy, perfect for a long ride while looking out the window. Here are a few.

Welcome to Night Vale

As the first and most well-known podcast from Fink’s studio, Night Vale Presents, Welcome to Night Vale is a horror/fantasy/sci-fi story about a town in an alternate reality where things aren’t always as they seem. It’s told through fictional radio updates and features queer characters and relationships, voice actors, and original music.

I Only Listen to the Mountain Goats

In this conversational podcast, Fink collaborates with the creative force behind the indie rock/folk band The Mountain Goats, John Darnielle. In each episode they focus on a different song. They talk about the symbolism and driving force behind the music, what it’s meant to them and to others, and why this band has touched so many hearts. Each episode features an original cover of its song by a different artist.

Alice Isn’t Dead

Alice Isn’t Dead is told through the radio log of a trucker driving through the vast expanse of Middle America, searching for her missing wife. It’s another horror/fantasy/alternate future story, with a story as terrifying as it is addictive. It’s especially good for a long bus ride because the story imagery focuses a lot on what it feels like to be on the road.

If you’ve been driving for many years, you might remember the days when people would listen to audiobooks on CD or even cassette tapes to get them through long drives. Podcasts are the natural descendant of these media. As a relatively new format, many podcasts use creative methods like voice acting and sound production to tell a story, which is especially effective for the horror genre. Here are some of the best fictional horror podcasts to make your road trips a little spookier. Interestingly, each of these podcasts relies heavily on their uniquely American settings to make their stories work.

Alice Isn’t Dead

If you like a little horror and a lot of suspense, Alice Isn’t Dead is an amazing story to listen to. Told by a truck driver in a dystopian future America searching for her presumed-dead wife, Alice Isn’t Dead delivers thrills and chills in abundance. You’ll be binging every episode right up till the end. Most of it takes place on the road, so it’s particularly good for driving.

Unwell

Unwell is a self-described “gothic horror” podcast, set in a small town in middle America. It follows a young woman who comes home to care for her estranged mother. The small-town setting lends itself to classic haunted house/ghost town weirdness, with a large cast of characters both living and dead. The show uses voice actors and background noises to put you right inside its world.

Ghosts in the ‘Burbs

Unlike Unwell and Alice Isn’t Dead, Ghosts in the ‘Burbs is an anthology podcast with a slowly-unfolding narrative through-line. The narrator is a suburban housewife (playing herself) in Wellesley, Massachusetts, who tells the surprisingly haunted stories of her fellow suburbanites. Since each episode stands on its own, it’s a good option if you aren’t the biggest fan of binging. It’s also slow-burn on the intensity–the first few stories aren’t really scary, but by the 30th episode you’ll be gripping the wheel tight in fear.
