Episode 170: “We’re just astonished this whole time”

Happy Spooky Wednesday, folks! And a happy belated birthday to Kala’s Mom! We’re taking her listener request and starting the episode with a discussion of Grand Junction, Colorado! When Kala visited this city with her mom and aunt last July, she heard about one haunted location, but she had no idea how many more existed in the small city. Was there really that much nefarious activity in all these old buildings, or does the underground tunnel system mean that they all share hauntings? And Brittany talks about the real life story of The Herrmann House, the inspiration behind the horror movie classic know as Poltergeist! For over a month, this family was plagued by paranormal activity at the hands of a spirit they called “Popper”. Was there really a ghost? Was it the preteen child, Jimmy? Or was there a scientific explanation? We have no idea, but we have some theories! Editor's Notes:

Alternative title: “Leave Jimmy alone!”
