  The Stanley Hotel: Ghosts, Hauntings & The Story Behind Stephen King's "The Shining"

  Sep 15, 202638 min

  What if a hotel could remember everyone who ever stayed there? The Stanley Hotel in Colorado has welcomed guests since 1909, but some say not everyone ever checked out. In this episode, Lindsey and Nancy explore the history and reported hauntings of one of America's most famous haunted hotels. From mysterious footsteps and phantom piano music to Room 217 and the ghostly stories surrounding F.O. and Flora Stanley, we're separating the history from the legend. And then there's Stephen King. His stay at the nearly empty Stanley Hotel in 1974 inspired The Shining , forever connecting this grand Colorado hotel with one of the most famous horror stories ever written. But is the Stanley actually haunted? Or does something about an old hotel, filled with generations of memories, make us expect the ghosts to be there? Come check in with us. Just don't be surprised if something else checks in too. Keep in Touch Facebook Instagram Share Your Ghost Story: Inheritedhauntings@gmail.com Merch Enjoyed the episode?

  The Exeter Incident: New Hampshire’s UFO Encounter That Terrified a Town

  Sep 5, 202645 min

  61 years ago this month, something very strange happened just outside of Exeter, New Hampshire. On September 3, 1965, 18 year old Norman Muscarello reported seeing a large object with brilliant red lights near a farm in Kensington NH. What makes the story especially interesting is that when Exeter police officers arrived to investigate, they reported seeing the object too. And now, 61 years later, Exeter is getting ready for its annual UFO Festival this weekend. That made us think of an episode we did last year about the Incident at Exeter , so I thought I'd bring it back up for anyone who missed it, or anyone who's in the mood for a little UFO rabbit hole this weekend. It's one of those cases where you can keep asking the same question: What exactly did they see that night? And if you're anywhere near Exeter this weekend, the UFO Festival is happening downtown Saturday and Sunday 9/5-9/6/26 with speakers, activities, historical presentations and trolley tours to the original incident site.
