Today’s episode features a short marriage, a suspicious death, a doctor who wrote “everlasting faint” on a death certificate, and a murder trial that took a wild turn. We’re heading to Greenbrier County, West Virginia, w

Brown lady, Brown lady, what do you see? I see a Colonel shooting at me! Where exactly? You're not in Kansas Dorothy (that's the ghost btw), you're in Raynham Hall in Norfolk England! Where the ghost is active, the men a

This week we’re heading to Florida and taking the elevator down into the history of the Sunland Training Center. A place that started with hopeful intentions, but somewhere along the way the whole system seemed to drop a

We are back with season six! Thanks for letting us take a break, we're ready to jump back into the ghost tour trolley. Metaphorically. This week we talk about McRaven Mansion in Mississippi. We have a lot of owners haunt

For our final episode of the season, we limp our way across the Atlantic to Chillingham Castle, a medieval fortress that spent centuries collecting war trauma like it was a hobby. Sitting on one of the most violently con

Our lives have been as chaotic as this location. We mind travel to California (not Tennessee) to talk about the infamous Winchester House. It's massive and confusing floorplan was a strange comfort to your two hosts who

Happy Halloween! In honor of FOUR years of Ghosts and Ghouls we decided to take a trip to Salem and get a little witchy. We talk about The Witch house, supposedly haunted and with a family curse. We discuss horoscopes, f

Brrrr it's cold in here, must be some ice crusted spirits in the atmosphere! Anyway, we're in Idaho talking about a very cool (heh) location called the Shoshone Ice Caves. Apparently the spirit of an Native American Prin

If you’re a long time listener you’ll know that we usually take an annual pilgrimage to one of the most haunted cities in the US. This year is no different! We headed to Savannah, GA this episode but with a twist. We dro

Shhh! Keep your voice down, this is a library. Or at least this is an episode about the Hutchinson Public Library. A haunted one at that though it seems like there is a little bit of main character syndrome going on with

It's a night at the museum, but one about mental health, not mentalist like Kristen may have thought. We've got a potential new Bingo game in the making so make sure you make a note of our favorite disease this episode.

We're back! To kick off season 5, we’re heading to Monte Cristo Homestead. An elegant Victorian manor in New South Wales with a not so elegant past. There’s a wealthy railway tycoon, a reclusive widow, some very dead chi

This season's last episode is fire- and Sloss Furnace is the match. In this episode, we dive into the molten-hot history of one of Alabama’s most infamous landmarks. From convict labor and brutal working conditions to wh

This week we ferry over to Sheffield Island Lighthouse off the coast of Norwalk, Connecticut. We shed light on stories like which lighthouse keeper dropped dead mid-sentence, and why a flaming steamboat disaster might be

Boo! Did we scare you with our chaotic posting schedule? Never fear, we haven’t ghosted you. This week we are clicking our heels three times to end up in Kansas where a paranormal investigator and seeming skeptic Becky p

We're back with part two of the tower of terror...eerr... Tower of London. We've got escapes, people losing their heads, polar bears, wine...what more could you ask for?! We'd appreciate it if you took a moment to help o
