    Episode 205: Lizzie Borden took an axe...

    Happy Spooky Wednesday, everyone! For our second week of True Crime January, we are covering one of the most infamous murder cases in United States history. The Borden Murders in 1892 resulted in the infamous trial of Lizzie Borden. Even though she was acquitted of the crimes, a nursery rhyme asserting that she killed her father and stepmother followed her for the rest of her life and decades after her passing. And it seems like this infamy may be feeling the haunting in not one, but two different locations! Does her ghost really hop between the two homes? Or is it just people wanting to believe in a ghost because of a horrendous crime?

    Episode 204: Hiding from ghosts behind sofas

    Happy Spook Wednesday, everyone! And Happy True Crime January! This week, we are talking about The Cecil Hotel, which has... let's say... not the best history when it comes to the folks who have stayed there. But is it HAUNTED? A certain ghost TV show host by the name of Bagans-Liar-Liar-Pants-On-Fire certainly thinks it is, but let's see what Kala has to say about it. Editor's Note: The John Cusack movie is 1408, not 1308. I knew it sounded off...

    Episode 203: “Anti-Santa Shadow Daddy”

    Happy Spooky Holiday Wednesday, dear friends! We’ve got a Christmas spectacular for you this year! Kala talks about Mari Lwyd. This is essentially a creepy hobby horse used for drunken caroling. It’s every ex goth kid’s Christmas dream! Then Brittany tells the tale of Père Fouettard. This French Anti-Santa travels along with Old Saint Nick punishing naughty children. He basically looks like Santa, but kinda dirty and in black instead of red. An ex-goth kid’s Christmas dream. And we end the whole episode sharing some spooky Christmas Reddit stories that are sure to have you closing the blinds before you crawl into bed on Christmas night. We hope you all have a safe and happy holiday!

    Episode 202: "Let's all hold hands, here on the subway..."

    Happy Spooky Wednesday, everyone! We’ve got some classic Brittany and Kala stories for you this week! First, Kala brings on the ghostly transportation! The Phantom Train of Marshall Pass in Colorado hasn’t been seen in over 100 years, but it’s one spooky story you don’t want to miss. And the Silver Train of Stockholm may be more weird than scary, but it’s definitely interesting. Then Brittany does a call back to one of her absolute favorite subjects... Past Lives! While there is no earthly reason these children should be recalling events from decades before they were even born, they are adamant that they do. And the accuracy of their recollections means we have a hard time questioning them.

    Episode 201: “He sure is Naddi”

    Happy Spooky Wednesday! We’re starting out this week with a listener request about a very interesting museum: The Iceland Phallological Museum. You read that right. It’s a museum all about penises. One exhibit focuses on the “units” of different cryptids and folklore creatures. Now our question isn’t, “Are these creatures real?” Our question has become, “Are these weenies real?” And Brittany talks about the supposedly most haunted home in Jamaica, The Rose Hall Great House. According to legend Annie Palmer, the "White Witch of Rose Hall", is said to haunt the grounds of the former sugar plantation. She murdered her husbands and tortured enslaved people. But how much of the Palmer legend is true?

    Episode 200: "Wolf Mafia 2026!"

    Happy Spooky Wednesday! We are celebrating our 200th episode this week with special guests Kara Babcock and Stephanie Chow of Prophecy Girls: A Buffy Rewatch Podcast! In case you missed it, they joined us for our 100th episode, where we talked all about vampires. What goes best with vampires? Werewolves. These shapeshifting creatures look human by day, but on the nights where a full moon shines, their animal side takes over! These cryptids have been discussed for years, and the lore varies from culture to culture. We're here to discuss their origins, sightings over the years, and that burning question: "Why are werewolves so hot?"  We want to thank you all for being with us for 200 episodes! We can't wait for more!  ______________________________________________________________________ Kara's Book Recommendations: Bitten | Kelley Armstrong Grandmistress of paranormal fantasy Kelley Armstrong brings a werewolf story like no other. Elena is a werewolf trying to make it work with a normal human guy, but when her Pack Alpha summons her, she has no choice but to leave Toronto and travel to New York to confront him and the werewolf who bit her. Soulless | Gail Carriger First in the Parasol Protectorate series. This is an alternative Victorian England where the supernatural is not only real but openly acknowledged. As the series goes on, the protagonist ends up married to a werewolf member of the peerage. There’s some Alpha-type romance stuff happening. Autumn Bones | Jacqueline Carey Second in the Agent of Hel trilogy sees the protagonist at the vertex of a love angle with a werewolf and a ghoul, both hot as hell. This is one of the more explicit series I have read, and it’s a great story of Norse mythology meets the Midwest (Lake Michigan area). Kitty and the Midnight Hour | Carrie Vaughn The eponymous Kitty Norville is a werewolf with a midnight radio show. A member of an abusive pack, Kitty ends up in conflict with the local vampire Master, and all hell breaks loose. Sisters Red | Jackson Pearce Little Red Riding Hood retelling about sisters who slay werewolves. Scarlett and Rosie March are young when a werewolf kills their grandmother, leaving them orphaned and virtually alone in the world. Sam and Dean vibes, people. Empire of Wild | Cherie Dimaline Métis author Cherie Dimaline brings us a retelling of the legend of the rougarou. Set off the shores of Georgian Bay, this book is about a woman looking for her missing husband. Her latest clue is a charismatic cult leader whose machismo is as mysterious as it is deadly.

    Episode 199: "Go SPORTS!"

    Happy Spooky Wednesday, folks! We're going classic this week with a haunted university and hospital. Kala talks about the University of Portland in Oregon, which has several spooky locations on campus. If you head to the oldest building, you might run into the teenage ghost who drowned in the river. If performing arts are more your thing, you may run into the specter of a young girl who likes to hang out in the theater. If you go for a walk on the grounds, be prepared to hear the footsteps of an angry old man who did not like the Catholic Church. There's something around every corner here! Then Brittany tells us all about St. Alban's Sanatorium in Radford, Virginia. We all know the horrid story of all these old hospitals, but for this location that's where the horror ended, not where it began. The land was host to a terrible war and a preparatory school from hell. When a location includes THREE stories that could cause a haunting on their own, you know that the ghosts are really there.

    Episode 198: "Sky Drama"

    Happy Spooky Wednesday, dears! We’ve got extraterrestrials and the Wild Wild West for you this week. Kala talks about former United States President Jimmy Carter’s UFO experience, as well as the stories from past US presidents. Is the government really hiding something? If so, they don’t seem to be hiding it very well. Then Brittany covers Big Nose Kate’s Saloon in Tombstone, Arizona. Neither host is particularly thrilled about the description Kate has been given, but we both agree that Kate has lived an eventful and interesting life. Her life was so wild that it seems it couldn’t be contained within our mortal plane, because she (and some friends) have decided to stick around and bother poor service workers even after death.
