Happy Spooky Wednesday, friends! This week, Kala is telling us all about the Pennhurst State School and Hospital in Spring City, Pennsylvania. This property is infamous for its controversial history and the ghostly tales that linger long after it closed. When it opened, Pennhurst was considered a model facility. When it closed, it was because Pennhurst violated the human rights of the people living there. Over nearly eight decades, more than 10,000 people lived at Pennhurst, any many died on the

Happy Spooky Wednesday, friends! We’re covering one of Kala’s favorite subjects this week: a spooky road! Kala is talking all about Zombie Road. This path in Wildwood, Missouri is renowned for its alleged paranormal activity and associated ghost stories. The trail, which was originally a road named Lawler Ford Road, is said to be haunted by various spectral figures, including Confederate soldiers, children, cranky old women, and industrial workers.

Happy Spooky Wednesday, dear listeners! If our subject this week sounds ominous, that’s because it is! Brittany tells us all about the Black Monk of Pontefract. The bulk of this haunting occurred in England during the 1970s and 1980s. This ordinary-looking home was plagued by extraordinary events brought on by an entity known as “Fred.” While the haunting seemed standard enough, it eventually escalated and seemed targeted specifically at the family's daughter. While the activity had come and

Happy Spooky Wednesday, everyone! This week we're diving into the controversy of Ed and Lorraine Warren. We've covered some of their most famous cases here on Left of Skeptic, but each time they seem to be tinged with a bit of disbelief. We'd love to believe that everything we're told is true, but when the Warren name is attached, we have to have our doubts. Ed and Lorraine's legacy is fraught with allegations of lies, abuse, and scandal. In this episode, we list two specific

After being ignored by the Catholic church, they turned to the only people

With just under 1,000 documented deaths in the prison's history, it is no surprise that some spirits still lurk here long after operations have stopped.

An old town has a lot of history, and that history can include ghost stories and local legends. Kala talks about three different locations in this Maryland city that are known by the locals to be a little spooky! The Middleton Tavern dates back to 1740 and is believed to be haunted by a few different ghosts. One has been spotted in the

But his family business has nothing to do with Hollywood, and everything to do with the supernatural. It turns out all that ghost hunting jargon used in the Ghostbusters movies comes from a place of experience.

In Southwestern Vermont, a string of mysterious disappearances happened between 1945 and 1950. With very few pieces of evidence, these disappearances remain unsolved. Could it be a portal, a Sasquatch-like creature, or Aliens? The disappearances have stopped, so this may forever remain unsolved!So while the Bermuda triangle got a lot of airtime

Happy Spooky Wednesday! This week we have two locations with very similar names. Inspired by her recent trip to the UK, Kala talks about The Golden Fleece in York. This old building is one of the most haunted inns in York, and the ghosts like to move furniture in the middle of the night. How annoying. And that brought her to The Golden Lamb in Ohio, where a man accidentally died after trying to show how someone could accidentally set off a gun… by accidentally setting off a gun into his stomach.

Happy Spooky Wednesday, dear listeners! When people think of ghost stories, they usually think of specific time periods. For example, the mid to late 19th century, when spiritualism was at its peak. Or the 70s and 80s, when Satanic Panic was spreading. But what if we told you that ghost stories go back much further than that? Brittany is about to tell you all some ancient ghost stories, and these stories are creepy! This is just further evidence that belief in the paranormal is nothing new... It's

Happy Spooky Wednesday, folks! We're talking about two of Kala's favorite subjects this week: witches and beer. For thousands of years, the process of creating beer and other fermented beverages was a household task, and so it was mostly done by women. By the Middle Ages, these women (called brewsters or alewives) were taking that excess foamy, golden liquid and selling it in the local marketplaces! #GirlBoss But eventually the men weren't as excited about their success, and that's

Thespians have always been dramatic (pun intended), and what brings more drama than whispered rumors of potential tragedy? So if you're going to be working on a stage production, be ready to hear all about what you can (and more importantly, CAN'T) do. Don't tell someone 'good luck.'

Happy Spooky Wednesday, dear listeners! We’re heading in a new direction this week and exploring conspiracy theories! Let’s start with the “mother of all conspiracy theories” and have Kala tell you all about the JFK assassination. Well, not all about it. This goes so deep that it would take too long. So instead she’s gonna tell you a lot about the JFK assassination. The 35th U.S. President, John F. Kennedy, was shot in Dallas over 60 years ago. Theories have swirled around this national tragedy for
