Scary Sea Stories You’ll Never Forget — Real Encounters From the US & UK

Episode 12 — Scary Sea Stories You’ll Never Forget

The ocean hides more than shipwrecks and storms. In this chilling episode of The Layton Files, we dive into real encounters from people who’ve seen and heard things no one can explain out on the water.

From strange shapes rising beneath fishing boats, to voices echoing across empty coves, to sightings of impossible creatures near lonely coastlines… these stories will stay with you long after the waves go quiet.

Every tale is told in a documentary-style format, with immersive sound design and a focus on real eyewitness accounts. If you love eerie maritime mysteries, unexplained sightings at sea, and the darker side of the deep this one’s for you.

Featuring:

• True sea encounters from the US and UK
• Atmospheric storytelling grounded in real experiences
• A tense, cinematic tone from start to finish

Listen with headphones… and maybe keep the lights on.
