Strange Talk S4E18 Ep. 118 Echoes of the Asylum_ Spirits of Trans-Allegheny with Copperhead

As the clock strikes 9pm, the shadows lengthen, and the airwaves fill with whispers from the past. This week on Strange Talk, Alyx talks strange with Copperhead, a seasoned paranormal investigator and ghost tour guide from the infamous Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum—one of the most haunted locations in the country.

With years of firsthand encounters inside the asylum’s decaying halls, Copperhead shares the ghostly tales and restless spirits that still linger within. From shadow figures to unexplained voices, we uncover the stories that make this asylum a hotspot for the supernatural. And, of course, we’ll finally answer the question—why does Copperhead always carry a cigarette on his tours?

Even after the mics were off, we couldn’t stop talking—swapping ghost stories for another two hours. Don’t miss this one, and if you ever visit Trans-Allegheny, be sure to request Copperhead for your tour—if you’re brave enough, the spirits of Trans-Allegheny seem to help Copperhead in his quest to show people the ghosts there.
Tune in for an episode filled with haunted history, chilling encounters, and the lingering echoes of those long forgotten. But be warned… some spirits don’t like being talked about.
