Happy Spooky Wednesday! Are you involved in a family business? So is the famous actor Dan Aykroyd!

It turns out all that ghost hunting jargon used in the Ghostbusters movies comes from a place of experience.

Happy Spooky Wednesday, you beautiful people. You’ve heard of the Bermuda Triangle and the Alaska Triangle, but did you know there’s a Bennington Triangle? 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

Happy Spooky Wednesday! Our story this week is a drama nerd's dream! 🎭 Brittany is diving headfirst into the world of theater superstitions. 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

Happy Spooky Wednesday! This week Kala's going to tell us all about the Magnolia Hotel in Seguin, Texas. Built in the mid-1800s as a two-room log cabin. It quickly became a hotel, stagecoach stop, and social hub of the area.

Happy Spooky Wednesday, friends!This week Brittany is bringing you the story of the Vardøger - a kind of spirit or paranormal experience (depending on who you ask). Often confused with things like déjà vu, it makes you feel like you experienced something before it happens! It’s described as a precursor spirit.

Happy Spooky Wednesday, everyone! Have you ever heard a local legend that grows so wildly over time that no one knows its origins? That's what we're talking about this week with the legend of Char Man in the Ojai Valley in California. While most of the origin stories seem to be born from the horrific 1948 wildfire, the story of why Char Man exists varies from tale to tale. The one thing they can seem to agree on is that there is the ghost of a strange man who chases the locals away from his bridge
