    S6, E13: This Angel Has Holly Wings

    This Christmas, Shadow Carriers turns its gaze to a beloved New Orleans holiday figure with a story far deeper than his cheerful grin. In this special holiday episode, we uncover the origins of Mr. Bingle and the artists, dreamers, and craftsmen who brought him into being. Through history, memory, and a touch of seasonal magic, we explore how one character came to embody the spirit of a city and why his legacy continues to linger each winter. _____________________________ Please be sure to like us on social media:  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/shadowcarriersInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/shadowcarriersIf you like what you hear and want to buy your storytellers a drink, you can catch us at @shadowcarriers on Venmo.

    S6, E12: Room Service

    In a city where the veil between the living and the dead is paper-thin, even luxury comes with a ghost or two. From the restless spirits of the French Quarter’s grand hotels to the lingering echoes in forgotten boutique guest rooms, we check in to some of New Orleans’ most haunted lodgings - and uncover the stories that never quite left. Part of our Four Shadows series, featuring original music by West Coast rapper and producer Tommy Jordan. _____________________________ Please be sure to like us on social media:  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/shadowcarriersInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/shadowcarriersIf you like what you hear and want to buy your storytellers a drink, you can catch us at @shadowcarriers on Venmo.

    S6, E9: A Streetcar Named Owl

    The iron wheels of the New Orleans streetcars have carried generations through the heart of the Crescent City — and not all their passengers have been among the living. Along the clattering tracks of St. Charles and Canal, whispers of vanished conductors, spectral riders, and echoes of tragedy linger in the night air. This haunting journey through the city’s veins is underscored by an original soundscape from West Coast artist Tommy Jordan, created exclusively for our Four Shadows series. _____________________________ Please be sure to like us on social media:  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/shadowcarriersInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/shadowcarriersIf you like what you hear and want to buy your storytellers a drink, you can catch us at @shadowcarriers on Venmo.
