    The Sign from Aokigahara, Japan’s “Sea of Trees”

    Send us Fan Mail Historian Kathy Kelly shares the story of a hauntingly ordinary artifact: a camera-warning sign from Aokigahara, Japan’s “Sea of Trees” (often called the “Suicide Forest”).

    Haunted Real Estate: “Buyer Beware – Ghosts Included”

    Send us Fan Mail This week, Traci Stein invites her husband Jason “Doe” —a real estate pro with 30+ years of experience—on for his first-ever interview… and let’s just say he’s seen things that *don’t* show up on a home inspection. Together, they unpack the strange intersection of paranormal activity + home buying: the childhood moment that still gives Jason chills, the long-running “activity” in Traci’s family home, and the Jersey Shore purchase that came with a little extra… personality. You’ll also hear what they did to reset the energy (from rituals to renovations) and the surprising question:  Do you have to disclose a haunting when you sell? Traci breaks down New Jersey’s disclosure gray zone and the famous court case that basically made ghosts a legal problem.

    Jersey Devil & Baal: Why “Devils” Have Horns, Hooves & Tails (Season 3 Premiere)

    Send us Fan Mail Traci + Kathy kick off Season 3 of Curious Explorers live from The Showroom in Asbury Park, NJ during the Jersey Devil Fable Festival—and investigate a  paranormal pattern: Why do so many “evil” beings come with horns, tails, and cloven feet? They trace the look back through myth and religion — from Pan (a god, later villainized), Azazel (a fallen angel), and Baal (a god later recast as a demonic king—and suddenly trending). Then they turn to the Jersey Devil, the Pine Barrens’ most famous resident, and unpack how his imagery evolved—and why this 1700s story has a surprisingly "political" origin. We also take a quick side trip to explore the viral AI-generated “demon-in-the-clouds” image on social media that reignited Baal (and Antichrist) speculation online.
