  1. The Origin of Ghosts

    FEB 26

    The Origin of Ghosts

    For thousands of years, humans across every culture on Earth have believed the dead don’t truly leave. In this episode of What Goes Bump In The Night, we explore the ancient origins of ghost belief—from prehistoric burial rituals over 60,000 years ago to the detailed spirit traditions of ancient Egypt, Rome, China, and beyond. Discover why early civilisations feared and respected the dead, how ghost stories spread across the world, and the psychological and emotional reasons these beliefs have survived every generation of humanity. Are ghosts simply stories born from grief and fear… or is there something deeper that has followed humanity since the beginning? This episode uncovers the global history, cultural connections, and chilling truth behind one of mankind’s oldest and most universal mysteries. Join us as we uncover the history, the science, and the unexplained encounters behind one of the most unsettling paranormal theories ever proposed. Because sometimes… the past doesn’t stay buried.

  2. The Stone Tape Theory

    FEB 19

    The Stone Tape Theory

    What if ghosts aren’t spirits at all… but recordings? In this chilling episode of What Goes Bump In The Night, we explore the terrifying possibility that the past never truly disappears. Deep within old stone buildings, forgotten halls, and ancient walls, something may still remain — not alive, but not gone. This is the Stone Tape Theory — the idea that moments of intense emotion, fear, and tragedy can become embedded into the very structure of stone itself, replaying decades… even centuries later. Are these echoes the voices of forgotten souls?Or is the building itself remembering? Join us as we uncover the history, the science, and the unexplained encounters behind one of the most unsettling paranormal theories ever proposed. Because sometimes… the past doesn’t stay buried.

  3. Cemeteries Are Dying — And We’re to Blame

    Cemeteries Are Dying — And We’re to Blame

    Cemeteries are disappearing, and the dead are being forgotten—but not because we stopped dying. We stopped visiting, stopped marking, stopped standing in the spaces meant to hold memory. In their place, ashes are uploaded, names are stored behind screens, and digital memorials replace the graves we once walked among. Tonight, we explore why traditional burial is fading, how cremation and digital remembrance are reshaping death, and what we lose when we leave the dead behind. Step with us into the silence, the shadows, and the spaces where something else begins to linger. Check out our Merch and Rep What Goes Bump! Shop Here: https://what-goes-bump-in-the-night.m...

    Deathbed Experiences

    Across cultures and generations, people have reported strikingly similar experiences in their final moments — visions of loved ones, sudden clarity after long decline, or peaceful transitions that defy easy explanation. In this episode, we explore the stories shared by families, caregivers, and those who have stood at the threshold between life and death. Through thoughtful conversation and grounded reflection, we look at what these experiences might reveal about the human mind, the dying process, and the ways people find meaning at the end of life. Whether you approach the topic from a spiritual, scientific, or purely curious perspective, this episode invites you to listen closely to the moments that often go unspoken.

    The Yuba County Five| America’s Winter Road to Nowhere

    In 1978, five friends vanished on a winter night after a basketball game in Chico, California. Months later, four were found dead in the Sierra Nevada under circumstances so strange they defy explanation—an abandoned car on a snowbound road, a trailer stocked with untouched supplies, and one man never found. Was it a wrong turn, a moment of panic, or something far darker? Join Trevor Jensen as we unravel one of the most baffling true mysteries in American history.

    The Devil's On The Run| Dan Rivera & Annabelle

    In this episode, we explore the eerie connection between Annabelle, the infamous haunted Raggedy Ann doll once kept in Ed and Lorraine Warren’s Occult Museum, and paranormal investigator Dan Rivera. Rivera, a senior lead with the Warrens’ New England Society for Psychic Research, helped bring Annabelle on the road for the “Devils on the Run” tour, where the doll drew massive crowds and viral attention. But in July 2025, during a stop in Gettysburg, Rivera was found dead in his hotel room—just hours after the exhibit. Authorities ruled out foul play, yet the chilling timing has only deepened Annabelle’s legend. Check out our Merch and Rep What Goes Bump!
