In this episode, we step into locations where the echoes of childhood linger long after the children themselves have vanished. These aren’t stories of monsters or malevolent spirits; they’re the stories of children who have stayed behind in places like a century-old dance hall where tiny desperate hands might tug at your clothing while you sip your drink. There’s a Gettysburg orphanage whose basement echoes with the sobs of childre...

In this episode, we follow the trail of the Grey Lady across time and continent, piecing together accounts, archival whispers, and the strange common thread that binds her to the living. We find her in libraries, castles, and hotels. Her presence drifts across centuries and oceans, from a palace in Britain to the echoing corridors of an American high school. Witnesses speak of a woman in pale mourning silk, her features blurred as ...

Welcome to our third episode where we take an in-depth look at a location with far too much history to cover in a regular episode. This week, we’re unlocking the iron gates of one of America’s most infamous prisons: the Ohio State Reformatory in Mansfield. Once home to thousands of inmates (and a few Hollywood cameras — hello, The Shawshank Redemption) this looming Gothic fortress has earned a reputation as one of the most haunted ...

What better way to celebrate spooky season than with two real haunted houses as told by those who lived it. First, we visit Northwest Chicago where in 1970, Ed and Marsha Becker bought a two-flat apartment to start their family. What they found instead was decades of tragedy, strange chills, objects moving on their own, and an unseen presence that grew stronger with every month they stayed. From floating kitchen appliances to a fai...

Tucked away on a quiet hill in Staten Island stands the Kreischer Mansion—a Gothic relic with a past so grim it refuses to stay buried. In this episode, we revisit Portals to Hell and their unnerving investigation of this historic home where the line between residual memory and intelligent haunting blurs uncomfortably thin. As Jack Osbourne and Katrina Weidman peel back the layers of the mansion’s sordid history—arson, mob murders,...

This week, we’re diving into the wonderfully bizarre world of cryptids where folklore meets the downright unbelievable. First, we travel to the windswept Isle of Man in the 1930s, where a talking mongoose named Gef supposedly made a family’s farmhouse his home, leaving behind one of the strangest legends in paranormal history. Was Gef a ghost, a hoax, or a creature from somewhere beyond the ordinary? Then we head to the murky backr...
