    Emily Paranormal: When the Unexplained Becomes Personal

    What happens when investigating the paranormal becomes more than searching for evidence—and the unexplained begins challenging everything you thought you understood? Host Doug Owen is joined by paranormal investigator and content creator Emily Waterson, known as Emily Paranormal, for a fascinating conversation about paranormal investigation, unexplained encounters, spirit activity, and the experiences that continue to drive her search for answers. Emily shares her journey into the paranormal, the experiences that shaped her interest in the unexplained, and what she has learned from investigating phenomena that don't always provide easy answers. Doug and Emily discuss the realities of paranormal investigation, the importance of approaching unusual activity with an open but critical mind, and the difference between experiencing something extraordinary and being able to determine exactly what happened. The conversation explores the personal side of investigating the unknown—the fear, curiosity, instinct, and uncertainty that come with entering reportedly haunted locations and confronting experiences that can challenge an investigator's understanding of life, death, and what may exist beyond it. From the United Kingdom to Idaho, two paranormal investigators compare perspectives on the unexplained and discuss why the search for genuine answers continues long after an investigation ends. • Emily Paranormal and Emily Waterson• Paranormal investigation in the United Kingdom• Personal paranormal experiences• Ghosts and unexplained activity• Investigating reportedly haunted locations• Searching for genuine paranormal evidence• Separating explainable events from the unexplained• Fear and instinct during paranormal investigations• Evaluating unusual experiences and evidence• Spirit activity and the possibility of an afterlife• Paranormal content creation• Why investigators continue searching for answers• Authenticity and credibility in paranormal investigation Subscribe to THE UNHOLY PODCAST for new conversations exploring hauntings, paranormal investigations, unexplained phenomena and the people searching for answers.

    Demons Exorcism and the Unexplained with Reverend Robert A. Du Shane

    What separates a haunting from something darker? When does unexplained paranormal activity cross the line into what some believe may be demonic—and who makes that determination? On this episode of The Unholy Podcast, Doug Owen sits down with Reverend Robert A. Du Shane, paranormal minister and Catholic demonologist, for a serious exploration of demons, exorcism, spiritual warfare, and the unexplained. Reverend Du Shane discusses his work investigating claims of demonic activity and why discernment is critical before declaring anything demonic. Not every frightening experience is a demon. Not every haunting requires an exorcism. Sometimes the most important part of an investigation is determining exactly what you're dealing with before attempting to confront it. Doug and Reverend Du Shane explore the differences between traditional paranormal activity and alleged demonic activity, the role of faith in paranormal investigation, the purpose of exorcism, spiritual protection, religious objects, and the dangers of investigators provoking forces they may not understand. The conversation also becomes personal as Doug discusses experiences from the year-long haunting documented in his true paranormal memoir, The Unholy Silence. As activity inside his family's Idaho home escalated, Doug sought help from the Catholic Church, ultimately receiving multiple house blessings while attempting to protect his daughters and understand what was happening around them. How do you distinguish a ghost from something potentially malevolent? What signs warrant serious concern? When should investigators back away? And what happens when conventional explanations no longer seem to account for what witnesses are experiencing? This isn't Hollywood's version of demonology. It's a conversation about faith, discernment, evidence, demons, exorcism, and the mysteries that remain unexplained. Topics include demons and alleged demonic activity, Catholic demonology, paranormal ministry, exorcism, spiritual warfare, discernment, religious protection, paranormal investigation, hauntings, unexplained phenomena, the dangers of provoking unknown entities, and Doug's experiences documented in The Unholy Silence. The Unholy Podcast explores true paranormal experiences, hauntings, investigators, researchers, witnesses, and the people willing to confront the questions most of us would rather leave unanswered.

    Lawrence Langdon & Jay Gridley NY PARANORMAL- When the Evidence Refuses to Be Explained

    Lawrence Langdon and Jay Gridley join host Doug Owen on The Unholy Podcast for an in-depth conversation about paranormal investigation, unexplained evidence, haunted locations, and those rare moments in the field when conventional explanations simply refuse to fit what investigators have experienced. Drawing from their work with NY Paranormal, Lawrence and Jay discuss the realities of investigating reported paranormal activity and the challenge of separating genuine anomalies from environmental contamination, coincidence, equipment interference, and human perception. They share their perspectives on evidence collection, firsthand experiences, and what happens when investigators have exhausted the ordinary explanations but are still left with something they cannot account for. Doug, Lawrence, and Jay also explore one of the central problems facing serious paranormal researchers: unexplained evidence does not automatically prove the existence of a ghost, but neither should compelling evidence be dismissed simply because it challenges conventional understanding. What do investigators do when a recording, experience, interaction, or piece of evidence survives scrutiny and refuses to become easily explainable? Whether you're fascinated by ghost hunting, paranormal evidence, haunted locations, spirit communication, or the continuing search for credible proof of the unexplained, this episode takes an engaging look at investigators who are willing to follow the evidence—even when it leads somewhere unexpected.
