This week's episode plunges into the mysterious depths of the creepiest and most haunting swamp locations. As two investigators who often find us immersed in swamp-like settings, we thought it would be thrilling to spotlight some of the most spine-chilling places brimming with paranormal activity.

In this episode, we delve into the eerie Great Dismal Swamp, Manchac Swamp, Honey Island Swamp, and Bear Creek Swamp. We'll uncover tales of ghostly apparitions, chilling urban legends, a Bigfoot-like cryptid, and a bizarre event from 2014, where 21 porcelain dolls were discovered impaled in one of these swampy areas.

Beyond the chilling accounts, we’ll explore the fascinating history behind these locations, share some personal insights, and ponder the forces that may make these swamps hotspots for paranormal occurrences. It's an episode packed with mystery, intrigue, and spine-tingling stories that you definitely don’t want to miss!


Small Disclaimer/ correction: In the episode we state that Drummond was the first governor of North Carolina which isn't entirely true. Drummond was the first governor of the Province of Albemarle which is now part of North Carolina. This was done under the Lords Proprietors in the 1600s during the colonial period before North Carolina was a state.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage

Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
