Easy Bake Coven Elise Giordano + Halee Rae

Coven, this week is a big one for halee and Lisey. It's rare that we're wrong... and it's even more rare that we would admit that we're wrong. But this week we may just be ready to admit that we were wrong about orbs! After hearing a spooky and intriguing tale, halee took a deep dive into orbs and found that the blurry 'orb' photos we see online are truly misrepresenting this fascinating phenomenon. In today's episode we'll take a trip all around the world to hear about spooklights, will-o'-the-wisps, and all kinds of mysterious lights with possibly otherworldly origins. Are they the spirits of deceased loved ones, trying to communicate? Are they portals to another dimension? Are they the bellies of owls who have consumed too much bioluminescent fungi? Tune in and you be the judge!
Happy Haunting! 

Do you dream of finding old bones? Have you ever thought about joining your favorite podcast on a bone hunting expedition? Does the mere thought give you  a boner? Dude, same. Maybe one day. In the meantime, join us as we uncover the latest bone-chilling,  ooky spooky news. Okay, enough bone puns. They're not humerus. STOP. This week we'll talk about a potential human sacrifice made to a family of sasquatch, pirate bones uncovered in the UK, the world's worst niece who brought her dead uncle to the bank and potential AI imagery used in a true crime documentary. Halee has her tarot read fireside on the beach and learns she's destined to remain the bad bitch that she is. Happy haunting! 

Where today stands a charming tourist town, Jerome, Arizona was once the "wickedest town in America." Bordellos and saloons served up drinks and disease to the miners who frequented them. And when the mines inevitably became too much, the smelter spit them out with the trash - literally. Jerome's streets run red with blood, harboring memories of the past in every nook and corner. We'll uncover ghosts inside the Connor and Grand Hotel, formerly the United Verde Hospital. Elise provides her own on the ground research after enjoying an ooky spooky ghost tour inside Jerome's very own cemetery. Tune in to learn all about America's "first ghost city" and learn why Jerome holds a special place in Elise's heart. Happy Haunting! 

It's hard to Live, Laugh, Love when there's just so much bullshit going on, Coven! Ruby Franke's husband claims Jodi Hildebrandt is actually possessed by the devil. Don't do Satan dirty like that! Rogue sasquatches turn out to be really tall runners who move more fluidly than most? And slippery thieves pelt bananas at a helpless attendant (who we'll discover isn't so helpless through the help of a little reading comprehension.) Things get a bit frisky as we uncover reports of shaved cats in the UK, and a rogue saw blade reminds us all that death is truly lurking around every corner. Happy Haunting!  

In the late 1970s, a strange group of folks arrived on Vashon Island, WA. Seemingly overnight, 60 men, women and children set up military tents and portapotties and got to work transforming 58 acres of pristine coastal forest into a religious commune.  Under the direction of their charismatic leader Lou, and his surly wife Mary Lou, the Wesleyan Cult built homes and a life for their community on their private compound.  Rumors swirled around town as islanders wondered what this new group was up to. As we find out this week, it was much weirder and more sinister than anyone could've imagined.
In this week's episode, we have the absolute honor and privilege of interviewing Deb Donner, survivor of the Wesleyan Cult. Deb will walk us through her experience with the cult from the beginnings of the group, to the cult fleeing Illinois and arriving on Vashon, all the way to her courageous escape. Please join us in bearing witness to Deb's incredible story of survival and strength.
Happy Haunting! 

Coven, this is the week of people on their worst behavior! Starting with a modern day witch and her crystal ball (of meth) and ending with a variable potpourri of the worst parents we’ve ever heard of, our faith in humanity may be wavering. We learn about Elise’s pedo high school teacher using AI to victimize children, and we get updates on a few recent stories we’ve covered. Before things get too dark, we revisit a trusted favorite- our dearest Bigfoot. You know Elise is excited. Tune in for all that and more on this week’s news roundup!
Happy Haunting!
