Step inside the grand theaters of the South… if you dare.
In this haunted history special, Bridgett Denise takes you into Charleston’s Dock Street Theatre, New Orleans’ Saenger Theatre, and Chattanooga’s Tivoli Theatre — three historic stages where the velvet curtains and golden chandeliers hide centuries of tragedy, scandal, and restless spirits.
From the fiery ghost of Nettie Dickerson in Charleston, to phantom piano music in New Orleans, to the usher who never left his post in Chattanooga, these theaters prove that sometimes the performance never ends. With chilling eyewitness testimonies, eerie folklore, and Southern Gothic history, this episode blurs the line between legend and reality.
For spooky season, Vivid Nightmares brings you double the chills: Haunted History Thursdays + True Crime Fridays.
So, take your seat, the lights are dimming… and remember not every seat in the house is truly empty.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
