Cachtice Castle and Elizabeth Bathory Redux

2025/05/27

The Cachtice Castle lies in ruins in Slovakia, but was once a home to royalty. This then became a prison for Baroness Elizabeth Bathory. Her family was known for cruelty and she knew violence from the time she was a child. Legends claim that she grew up to become the "Blood Countess," a prolific female serial killer. But was she really that or has history given her a bad rap via a story concocted by people who wanted her power and possessions? The Castle is a magnificent, but crumbling structure

TGIY Ep. 9 - Ghosts

History Goes Bump: Ghost Tours For The Mind ·

2025/05/25

Ghosts. This is a topic with which the church does not like to deal. And this is whether people are asking tough questions like, “What is a ghost?” or asking for help with a haunting taking place in their homes. Most churches treat the topic as a whole with a couple of simple answers. These are demonic entities, and we shouldn’t have anything to do with spirits or ghosts don’t exist. But is that what the Bible has to say about ghosts? Main theme: Crazy For Thrills by Muse Music with Groove

History Goes Bump: Ghost Tours For The Mind ·

2025/05/20

George Bernard Shaw wrote in The Doctor’s Dilemma, "Life does not cease to be funny when people die any more than it ceases to be serious when people laugh." Death shows up in gallows humor often. There is indeed, humor in death. Many times it can found in cemeteries. On this Stones and Bones, we're talking graveyard humor. Intro and Outro music "Stones and Bones" was written and produced by History Goes Bump and any use is strictly prohibited. Check us out at: https://historygoesbump.com Other

2025/05/15

The Houghton Mansion in North Adams, Massachusetts was named for the family that commissioned its construction. Their biography is ripe for ghost stories with a tragic car accident leading to further deaths from broken hearts and suicides. The house then spent nearly a century hosting a chapter of the Masonic Order. The Masons have always carried an air of mystery around their organization with rumors of bizarre rituals, sacrifices and hidden knowledge. Many former Masonic temples and centers pop up

2025/05/13

Fort Edmonton is a settlement that dates back to the true beginnings of Canada becoming an official country and to Alberta becoming a province. This would be a series of trading posts that were built on the north bank of the North Saskatchewan River. It played a key role in history with both European settlers and the natives that lived on the land. Today, this is a cultural center and museum that reputedly has unexplained activity.

TGIY Ep. 8 - Mount Hermon and the Watchers

History Goes Bump: Ghost Tours For The Mind ·

2025/05/11

There are several important mountains in the area that we today call the Holy Land. Mount Hermon is one of these mountains and has been considered sacred for all of recorded history. This is where the fallen Watchers made their descent, not only from the heavenly realm, but a descent into sin that would land them in chains in Tartarus. The River Jordan’s headwaters launch from here, El lived here with his 70 sons and the Grotto of Pan stands at its base. This mountain is not discussed in mainline

One can't miss the S.K. Pierce Mansion in Gardner, Massachusetts. This magnificent mansion is a huge Victorian that takes up the whole corner of West Broadway and Union Street. The grand exterior makes it very inviting, but the ghost stories connected to this place might just make you think twice before entering. There are those that claim this home is the second most haunted house in Massachusetts. Some owners have been chased out by spirits. There could be more than a dozen spirits here and one of

Phantasmal Crime 44 - The Mysterious Death of Thelma...

2025/05/06

Old Hollywood and mysterious deaths seem to go hand in hand, whether it's the case of the Black Dahlia or the mysterious "suicides" of Marilyn Monroe and George Reeves. In the same vein as the mysterious suicides of the latter stars, comes the tale of the mysterious death of movie star Thelma Todd. It is a story that contains all the elements of a perfect Hollywood drama: fame, fortune, gangsters, love and betrayal. Was she murdered, did she die by accident or did she die at her own hand?

2025/05/01

We had the chance to visit San Juan Capistrano and the mission there, as well as the Los Rios Historic District in April 2025. The historic district still hosts three original adobe homes, along with quaint shops and distinctive eateries. Much of the mission is in ruins today, but the colorful gardens, swallows and beautiful interior of the Serra Chapel make this a mission not to be missed. And the main downtown of San Juan Capistrano has its bits of history alongside modern businesses. All of these

Haunted Boone Redux

2025/04/29

Boone, North Carolina is nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, in an area of the state locals refer to as the "High Country." Boone and the surrounding areas seem to be a hotbed for strange occurrences, tragic deaths, and hauntings almost as chilling as the mountain air. Two prominent locations that we covered from this town are Moses Cone Manor, featured on Ep. 62, and Appalachian State University, featured on Ep. 202. These locations are not only surrounded by beauty, but they

2025/04/27

Leviathan and dragons have already been featured in their own episodes, but they aren’t the only fantastical animals in the Bible. There are several mythic beasts in the Bible, from Behemoth to Ziz Shadai to Re’em, which are creatures so large, they appear to be mountains or block out the sun. Hebrew mythology elaborates on them, but was there more than just myth to these creatures? Did they exist? Do they exist?

Ep. 583 - The Life and Afterlife of James Dean

2025/04/24

James Dean's star burned bright, but fast. He starred in three amazing films, earning two posthumous Academy Award nominations, before his untimely death in 1955 at the age of 24. One can only wonder what heights his performances would've reached with that kind of trajectory. Dean loved speed and that would bring his ultimate demise. Perhaps because he had much still to do, his spirit still seems to be here. Join us for the life and afterlife of James Dean. The Moment in Oddity features the Rooftop

Stones and Bones Ep. 7 - Ye Olde Burying Grounds

History Goes Bump: Ghost Tours For The Mind ·

2025/04/22

On this Stones and Bones, we are focusing specifically on the cemeteries that name themselves Old Burying Ground. These Old Burying Grounds offer a snapshot of what life was like during the Colonial Period in America and they don't use the term "cemetery" in the name because the term wasn't in use yet. Garden cemeteries were a couple hundred years away from being planned, so many of these cities of the dead are haphazard and wild. And they were never considered hallowed, but rather, common.

Bonus: Haunted Deadly Waters

2025/04/17

Water can be dangerous for anyone, even the best swimmers in the world. Water has a cunning to it and when you add currents and rocks and other things, a mild brook can turn into a raging river. An ocean that regularly meets the beachline and recedes can become a tsunami that wipes out a city. Or it can become a great flood that wipes out nearly all of humanity as so many myths have recounted. Water and spirits go hand in hand. We've heard that ghosts can't cross water, but also that spirits can use
