Encounters x296 - Ghost Stories with Wine Pairings

In this very special Encounters episode, we take the paranormal party to The Bottle Shop, a local wine store in Beverly MA, to record live among the bottles (and perhaps a few spirits of another kind 👻). With a specially curated wine tasting list designed to pair perfectly with each spooky segment, this episode blends vino and the supernatural for the ultimate haunted happy hour. Stories include: A listener whose recurring nightmare of a severed head floating in a lake suddenly becomes horrifyingly real when they later see the same face staring back at them in an antique mirror. One listener’s life path is altered for the better when she sees her own doppelgänger with a small child, causing her to re-think an unhealthy relationship. Alex, the ‘not haunted’ Bottle Shop owner shares a sleep paralysis haunting of his own. After moving to Gettysburg, one listener needs all the help she can get to calm the ghost soldiers who roam her home each night at 3am. Pour yourself a glass and join us as we uncork a night full of laughs, scares, and spooky-sweet pairing notes you won’t want to miss. Browse The Bottle Shop here. Watch the video version here.
