Podcast Extra Anormal

Hosted by Extra Anormal

Host Paco Arias interviews paranormal experts and storytellers to explore supernatural legends, real-life hauntings, and occult phenomena in Mexico.

The brief

A long-form interview show dedicated to the Mexican paranormal scene. Host Paco Arias acts as both a guide and a fellow enthusiast, blending horror-style thematic monologues with conversational interviews with other content creators, witches, and experts. The show heavily features listener-submitted stories and well-known Latin American legends, creating a space that is part investigative and part campfire storytelling.

Its deep focus on Mexican and Latin American folklore, combined with its community-building approach (addressing the audience as "familia"), sets it apart. The host's active participation as a storyteller, rather than just an interviewer, makes the show feel like a shared exploration of the unknown.

What you'll be asked on this show

AI-extracted from recent episodes · help us verify
How Extra Anormal interviews

Paco Arias opens not with a question, but with a long, atmospheric monologue to set the stage for the episode's theme. His first move with a guest is a warm, open-ended invitation to introduce themselves and their work, immediately establishing them as an expert for the audience. He probes for personal beliefs ("Do you believe in the paranormal?") and expert opinions ("What is your opinion on...") rather than just facts. Arias is not a passive interviewer; he actively shares his own theories and detailed stories, creating a collaborative dialogue. He often uses on-screen graphics as visual aids to pivot the conversation to new sub-topics.

Episodes begin with a dramatic, horror-style monologue by host Paco Arias to establish a spooky theme. He then brings in a guest for a relaxed, conversational interview, often referring to his audience as "familia." The show's structure blends guest expertise with listener-submitted stories and frequently promotes exclusive, uncensored content available on the host's official website.
