From abandoned roads hidden deep in Ontario to terrifying firsthand encounters with the unexplained, this episode dives headfirst into the legends and ghost stories that inspired her latest work.

K.G. shares how her fascination with the supernatural began in childhood and eventually led her to investigate some of the most haunted locations in Canada. One place stood out above the rest — the infamous Texas Road. Once a busy connector road, it has since become isolated and overgrown, earning a reputation for strange sightings, ghostly activity, and unsettling experiences.

During the conversation, K.G. recounts spine-tingling encounters from her investigations, including mysterious footsteps in the darkness, stones thrown from unseen sources, and the unforgettable moment when her missing car keys were discovered hanging from a tree branch. 

These chilling events became the foundation for Tales of Texas Road, as part of her Haunted Tales series.

We also explore the paranormal docuseries inspired by the book, now streaming on Bell Fibe TV 1 in Canada. The six-episode series combines eyewitness interviews, investigations, and dramatic reenactments that bring these terrifying stories to life.

If you’re fascinated by haunted locations, paranormal investigations, local legends, and real ghost stories, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.

What began as a terrifying moment in boot camp — when a recruit ran from the restroom claiming she’d seen a ghost — quickly opened the door to a deeper world of paranormal lore hidden within the squad bays and rifle range barracks known as the “white elephants.” Christa explains how these haunting accounts have remained remarkably consistent across decades of Marine training, with reports of shadowy figures, unexplained sounds, and an unsettling feeling that some spirits never left Parris Island behind. 
Joe and Christa also discuss why so many Marines seem uniquely open to the paranormal, and how ghost stories become part of the bond shared between veterans. 
More than just spooky campfire tales, these experiences connect Marines to the history, trauma, and traditions of one of the most legendary training grounds in the country.
If you’re fascinated by military history, paranormal encounters, and the stories that live on long after the lights go out, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.

Rachel shares the chilling childhood encounter that started it all — seeing her grandfather after his death at just ten years old — and how growing up in a Hispanic family from Argentina made conversations about spirits and the paranormal feel natural rather than taboo.

Together, Joe and Rachel explore how culture, family history, and personal experiences influence the way we understand hauntings and the unknown. Rachel recounts eerie moments from investigations, including a disturbing encounter inside a supposedly haunted Spanish-style home where an unseen presence tapped her shoulder while no one stood nearby.

The conversation also dives into the science behind hauntings, including the fascinating Stone Tape Theory — the idea that certain materials like limestone, quartz, and granite may retain emotional energy and memories from the past. Rachel explains why some locations seem charged with paranormal activity and how land, water, and environment may all play a role in supernatural phenomena.

From ghostly encounters to the intersection of science and spirituality, this episode blends personal stories, paranormal theory, and cultural perspectives into a thought-provoking discussion about what may exist beyond our understanding. Whether you’re a skeptic, believer, or somewhere in between, Rachel’s experiences will leave you questioning just how much energy the world around us may be holding onto.

Liz brings a rare perspective to the world of the unexplained, blending analytical thinking with deeply personal spiritual experiences.
Together, we explore how she balances skepticism and belief, what it’s like to investigate haunted locations while being sensitive to the energies around her, and how her scientific background shapes the way she approaches the paranormal.
Liz also dives into the hidden layers of religious history, discussing the lingering influence of pagan traditions within Christianity and what that means for how we understand faith today.
This conversation moves beyond ghost stories—into the nature of consciousness, belief, and the thin veil between worlds.
If you’ve ever wondered whether science and the supernatural are truly at odds… this episode might change your mind.

This conversation moves beyond ghost stories—into the nature of consciousness, belief, and the thin veil between worlds.
If you’ve ever wondered whether science and the supernatural are truly at odds… this episode might change your mind.

It’s a place that feels ordinary at first glance, but once you know the story, it’s impossible not to feel the weight of history pressing in from all sides.
Together, Joe and Rob explore what life might have been like in the 1870s—an era when railroads were both lifelines and looming dangers, and a single mistake could spell disaster.
They imagine the passengers, the chaos of the crash, and the haunting aftermath that lingered long after the wreckage was cleared.
Blending historical storytelling with firsthand experience, this episode captures that unsettling moment when the past suddenly feels very present—and reminds us that even the most unassuming places can hold the darkest stories.

Brett breaks down his approach to paranormal investigation—how he gathers evidence, what he looks for on a case, and why some places just feel different the moment you step inside. 

The conversation also digs into the deep cultural roots of Southern ghost stories—how local legends, historic trauma, and community storytelling keep these hauntings alive generation after generation. 

Whether you’re new to ghost hunting or already chasing spirits yourself, Brett shares practical tips for exploring haunted locations safely and respectfully—plus a few unforgettable moments from the field.

Now left to rot, its sprawling campus is a maze of crumbling buildings, broken windows, and eerie silence—except for the unmistakable signs that they’re not the only ones who’ve been there.
Then, the journey continues into the equally unsettling Vibra Hospital of Western Massachusetts, a more modern but no less haunting abandoned facility. With equipment left behind and rooms frozen in time, it’s a place that feels recently vacated… yet deeply wrong.
Throughout the episode, Rob shares what it’s really like navigating these massive, deteriorating spaces—from collapsing floors and hidden hazards to unexpected encounters and the constant reminder that trespassers come and go more often than you’d think.
This isn’t just about the thrill of the explore—it’s a real look at the dangers of urban exploration, the risks that come with stepping into forgotten places, and why respecting these locations matters just as much as experiencing them.

Danica and Guy share firsthand experiences from the field, revealing just how real—and dangerous—negative entities can be. But it’s not all fear and folklore.

From the mansion’s Gilded Age beginnings under Sylvester Knowlton Pierce to its darker boarding house years, they dig into the real history behind the legends—and why this place refuses to shake its reputation.
The conversation takes a turn into the future as they talk about their friend Kevin’s upcoming film, Secrets of Densmore Manor, which is set to be filmed inside the mansion itself.
They get into what makes the location perfect for horror, and how filming in a place with this kind of past might bring something extra to the screen.
From there… things spiral (in the best way). What starts as a haunted house episode turns into a full-on discussion about the current state of Hollywood—what’s broken, what feels manufactured, and why big studio films aren’t hitting the same anymore.
Joe and Rob lay out why they believe independent filmmaking is on the verge of a major comeback, and how passion projects, practical locations, and real stories might be the future of horror.

We also talk about Bryan’s work as a horror and supernatural author, including his book How to Contact the Living, and how folklore, paranormal experiences, and dark history influence his writing.

If you’re fascinated by ghost stories, ancient myths, and the deeper cultural history behind them, this episode is packed with legends, personal encounters, and the mysteries that still linger in Ireland’s landscape.
Grab a drink and join us as we pull back the curtain on Irish folklore, supernatural encounters, and the timeless stories that refuse to fade.

Rob and Joe dive into the historic roots of the Carriage Inn, tracing its place along Post Road and discussing how buildings like this once served travelers making their way through colonial Rhode Island. With age comes atmosphere — and sometimes stories that refuse to fade.
The conversation also turns to the night the team from Ghost Hunters — better known as TAPS — investigated the inn. What did they find? Did their evidence validate the local legends, or leave more questions than answers?
From warm hospitality to cold spots and unexplained imagery, this episode blends personal experience, regional history, and televised paranormal investigation into one unforgettable stop along the trail.
Pull up a chair, order a drink, and decide for yourself… is the Carriage Inn just historic — or still inhabited?

Rob walks Joe through the hospital’s history — from its early reform-era optimism to its decline, deinstitutionalization, and the eventual demolition of many of its original structures. But history books only tell part of the story.
Long before fences went up and buildings came down, Taunton State Hospital became a rite of passage for local teens. Rob shares what it was like exploring the abandoned buildings that once stood on the grounds — shattered windows, peeling paint, long echoing corridors, and the uneasy feeling that someone might still be watching from the shadows. And then there were the tunnels. Connecting parts of the campus beneath the surface, the underground passageways carried steam lines — and stories.
Rob recounts what it felt like descending into those dark, claustrophobic corridors as a teenager: the smell of damp concrete, the distant drip of water, the adrenaline of knowing you weren’t supposed to be there, and the creeping sense that the past hadn’t fully left.
Was it just teenage nerves in an abandoned asylum… or something else? Join us as we explore the layered history, the urban exploration memories, and the lingering legends surrounding Taunton State Hospital — a place where architecture, tragedy, and curiosity collided.

Often referred to as the Lady of the Ledge, her origins are tangled in loss, sorrow, and the dangerous edge where love may have quite literally gone over the cliff.
Next, the journey heads north to New Hampshire, and the haunting tale of Nancy Barton. After her lover steals her life savings and disappears, Nancy sets out into the wilderness in the dead of winter to chase him down. She never makes it back. To this day, hikers report strange sounds and unsettling feelings in the woods where she died—leading many to believe Nancy may still be searching.
The final story takes us to Rhode Island, overlooking Narragansett Bay, where the tragic life of Hannah Robinson unfolds. A young woman who eloped against her father’s wishes, Hannah’s love leaves her abandoned, impoverished, and gravely ill. When she is finally brought home to reconcile with her family, she asks to stop one last time at her favorite spot overlooking the water. She dies shortly after. Today, the Hannah Robinson Tower on Tower Hill Road stands as a memorial to a love that cost everything.
Three stories. Three broken hearts. And three places where love may still linger. This Valentine’s season, romance takes a back seat to tragedy—because some love stories don’t fade…

Rob explores the legend of Metacomet (King Philip), the significance of Profile Rock as a possible landmark and meeting place, and how it fits into the wider web of history and mystery surrounding the area.
The conversation branches into nearby locations heavy with lore and tragedy, including Freetown State Forest and Anawan’s Rock in Rehoboth, drawing lines between battle sites, sacred ground, and places that continue to carry an unsettling weight.
Blending historical context with regional legend, this episode examines how war, displacement, and memory have shaped the land—and why these places still resonate today. It’s a journey into the heart of southern Massachusetts, where history is etched into stone and the past never feels entirely at rest.

Along the way, the conversation breaks down key character arcs, examining why the show resonates so strongly on a human level, and how trauma, friendship, and loss are woven into the supernatural narrative.
The episode wraps with thoughts on the future of the Stranger Things franchise, possible spin-offs, and whether the series’ ending truly closed the door—or left it cracked open just enough to let something else through.

They unpack the chilling events of 1925, when Fawcett vanished without a trace, leaving behind questions that still haunt explorers and historians today.
The conversation also turns to modern discoveries. With the help of LIDAR technology and archaeological research, evidence is emerging that the Amazon was never an empty wilderness, but home to vast, sophisticated societies built on advanced agriculture and engineered landscapes.
Gold may have driven legends, but Z represents something far more unsettling—and far more human.

Being pulled from class into darkened rooms. Men in suits carrying briefcases. Headphones, strange frequency tests, logic cards… and a thick pink drink with no explanation.
Some even recall experiences they later identified as astral projection or heightened awareness—memories many say were buried for years.
Joe and Rob break down the documented, real-world purpose of the GATE program, separating fact from speculation, while also exploring how programs meant to identify gifted minds could be vulnerable to misuse.
Could intelligence agencies like the CIA have seen opportunity in a system already designed to isolate exceptional children? Or are these shared memories the result of misunderstood testing, childhood perception, and decades of silence?
This episode doesn’t claim answers—but it asks uncomfortable questions about education, secrecy, and how easily good intentions can be twisted.

But that’s just the beginning. From there, we dive into chilling, real accounts from people who wandered into digital places they never should’ve gone… in search of things they couldn’t obtain by any normal means.
We explore stories of hidden forums, strange marketplaces, unsettling chatrooms, and the kind of encounters that make you want to slam your laptop shut and leave the room. These aren’t ghost stories in the woods—these are modern, technological nightmares whispered by people who claimed to see something they can’t forget.
This episode is a stark reminder: sometimes the scariest things aren’t spirits in abandoned buildings or shadows in the forest… sometimes the danger is just a few keystrokes away.
Grab a drink, turn down the lights, and join us for a journey into the hidden underbelly of the internet—where curiosity often comes with a price.

Joe and Rob share stories of Marine Corps history, the symbolism of Tun Tavern throughout the centuries, and the plans to rebuild the historic tavern near its original site. From battles fought abroad to the brotherhood forged at home, the conversation blends military heritage, personal memories, and a deep respect for those who’ve worn the Eagle, Globe, and Anchor.
So pour a pint, stand tall, and join two Marines as they honor the place where it all began — Tun Tavern, the birthplace of the United States Marine Corps.
Happy Birthday Marines, Semper Fidelis.

He tells the story of Caroline Stickney, the elegant widow whose spirit is said to linger in Room 314, forever watching the mountains from her rocking chair. The piano that plays without a pianist, the footsteps echoing down empty corridors, and the mysterious figure seen gazing from a sealed window — each story paints a picture of a place where luxury and the supernatural coexist.
Set against the backdrop of the majestic but unforgiving White Mountains, Joe also touches on the deeper legends tied to the land itself — ancient spiritual energy, restless spirits, and the whispers that echo long after the guests have checked out.
So settle in, pour yourself something strong, and join Joe as he opens the door to the haunted history of The Omni Mount Washington Hotel — a place where the past never truly lets go.

With a deep respect for the home’s history, she recounts what she believes these spirits were trying to communicate — messages of loss, longing, and a desperate need to be remembered. Listeners will also get an inside look at the tools of the trade, as Heather explains the ghost-hunting equipment she used — from EMF detectors to spirit boxes and REM pods — and how each helped piece together the haunting puzzle of the Baker Homestead. Together, Joe and Heather explore what comes next in their search for Nellie Baker’s missing trunk, a long-lost family relic tied to the home’s most active spirit.
Could uncovering it finally bring peace to Nellie — and to the house itself? Step back inside the Baker Homestead, where history, heartbreak, and the paranormal intertwine — and where the story of Nellie Baker may finally be ready to reveal its final secret.

In this impromptu episode, Joe explores the eerie history of the 19th-century one-room schoolhouse and its unsettling proximity to paranormal hotspots like the Bridgewater Triangle, Anawon Rock, the Hockomock Swamp, and the Freetown State Forest.
From the blood-soaked legacy of King Philip’s War to whispers of spectral teachers and unseen children, the Hornbine School isn’t just a relic—it’s a crossroads of history and haunting.
What was meant to be a two-host show became a fireside tale of ghosts, grief, and the energy that lingers in old wood and older land.

The hosts also turn their attention to Westerly, Rhode Island, reflecting on the devastation of the 1938 hurricane and the lingering legends it left behind. With haunting tales tied to the storm’s destruction, they explore how history and tragedy intertwine to create ghost stories that still echo through the region.
As they swap stories of the supernatural and the struggles of filming in such unsettling places, Joseph and Rob also take a moment to look back at the podcast’s growth since its return from summer break, and give listeners a peek at what’s ahead—more haunted explorations, more guests, and more of the legends that blur the line between history and horror.

Rob digs into the insane practical effects and no-holds-barred brutality that sets Terrifier apart, while Joe looks at the film’s surprisingly low budget and how it managed to become a modern horror success.
We also explore how director Damien Leone's DIY approach, combined with David Howard Thornton’s terrifying performance, proves that independent creators can still make a huge impact in horror. For Rob, it’s a dose of inspiration—proof that even the most twisted vision can find its audience if you just take the leap.
Grimy, gruesome, and surprisingly motivating, this episode celebrates the terrifying joy of indie horror and the creators bold enough to bring their nightmares to life. Full spoilers ahead!

Joe shares his lifelong connection to the paranormal, growing up in a family home rumored to be haunted, along with encounters that shaped his obsession with strange places and unexplained experiences.
Joe also takes listeners on a brief journey to Pilfershire Abandoned Town Trail in Simsbury, Connecticut—an overgrown colonial settlement hidden deep in the woods—setting the tone for future episodes filled with on-location storytelling, history, and atmosphere.
