    Ep. 52 On Location at Shaker Cigar Bar, Podcast Birthday Special

    One year ago, Creepy Shit was just an idea. Today, we're on Location! To mark one full year of this podcast. Im sitting inside one of America's Most Haunted bars - Shaker's Cigar Bar in Milwaukee, WI - with a man who has owned and breathed this building since the 1980's, Bob Weiss And this place has layers, boo We're talking a building built on top of a cemetery. A prohibition-era speakeasy and brothel run by the Capone brothers. A sixteen year old girl named Molly Brennan who never made it out of the third floor. Human Bones found inside the wallsduring a 2001 renovation. Documented paranormal residents and a barstool that Jefferey Dahmer used to call his.  Bob has spent nearly 40 years inside this building. In this episode, he walks us through all of it - the documented history, the unexplainable reports, and the personal experiences he's had.  This is the episode I've been working toward since day one. I hope it hits you the way it hit me. Time to press play

    Ep. 51 Old House Woods - Summer Series Kickoff ft. Macabre Monday

    There is a 50-acre patch of woods in Mathews County, Virginia that has been terrifying people for over 300 years — and the paper trail to prove it goes all the way to a federally funded government archive at the University of Virginia.  Old House Woods is one of those locations that makes you question everything, because the witnesses aren’t anonymous internet strangers. They’re named. They’re dated. They gave their accounts to newspapers. And the history underneath those accounts — pirates, Revolutionary War gold, a royal governor who went rogue, Blackbeard operating miles away, a plantation built on a burial ground that caught fire and put itself out — is all on the record.  This week, I'm joined by Ale and Tom from Macabre Monday to dig into one of the most layered, most documented, and somehow most overlooked haunted locations in America. Phantom ships. Skeleton soldiers in armor. Treasure that was never recovered. And a storm ghost who rises above the trees to scream warnings at fishermen. Welcome to Old House Woods. Don’t say we didn’t warn you. PS. This is just the beginning - This is the official kickoff to our Summer Series of Woods, Roads, Lakes and Lighthouses & More. Are you ready? Press Play

    Ep. 50 H.H. Holmes: Murder Castle, The Haunting & The Man Who Couldn't Sleep

    Everyone thinks they know the story of H.H. Holmes — America’s first serial killer, the Murder Castle, two hundred victims, trap doors and gas chambers. But what if most of that was invented? In this episode of Creepy Shit, we go full deep dive on H.H. Holmes - pulling from historical records, newspaper archives, and court documents to separate verified fact from the yellow journalism myths that have dominated this story for over a century. Because here’s the thing: the documented truth is scarier than the legend. We cover it all! This is not your average H.H. Holmes episode. No exaggeration. No inflation. Just the records — and the haunting that followed.

    Ep. 49 The Immediate Haunting of American Airlines Flt. 191

    We’re diving deep into America’s deadliest aviation disaster and the absolutely wild paranormal activity that started within HOURS of the crash. I’m talking about American Airlines Flight 191, the DC-10 that fell from the sky at Chicago O’Hare on May 25, 1979, killing 273 people in thirty-one seconds of pure hell. But here’s where it gets really messed up: the passengers never left. We’ve got phantom knocking on doors, ghostly figures reeking of aviation fuel asking for help, mysterious radar blips of planes that don’t exist, and a warning voice that’s been helping air traffic controllers prevent disasters for decades. Airport employees are seeing passengers in outdated clothes trying to catch flights that will never take off, and residents near the crash site are dealing with security systems going haywire because spirits keep opening doors that aren’t there. This isn’t your typical ghost story - this is 270+ souls who were interrupted mid-journey and are still trying to get home. From the maintenance f**k-up that caused the disaster to the ongoing hauntings that’ll make you think twice about flying through O’Hare, we’re covering it all. Trust me, don't listen to this if you are about to step onto a plane.  References & ResourcesPrimary Sources:- National Transportation Safety Board Final Report: American Airlines Flight 191 (December 21, 1979) - Chicago Tribune archives and victim profiles (1979-2024) - American Hauntings Investigation records - Aviation Safety Network crash database Paranormal Documentation:- Haunted Places directory: American Flight 191 Crash Site - Aviation employee forum testimonials (anonymous sources) - Mobile home park resident accounts (1979-2010s) - Air traffic controller unofficial reports Historical Context:- McDonnell Douglas DC-10 maintenance records and procedures - Federal Aviation Administration investigation files - O’Hare International Airport expansion documentation Additional Reading:- “Ghosts of Flight 191” - American Hauntings archives - Aviation maintenance safety protocols post-1979 - Electromagnetic field studies of crash sites - Trauma psychology and collective memory research *Note: Many paranormal accounts come from unofficial sources due to airline industry policies regarding supernatural reports.

    Ep. 47 The Ganster Ghosts of Wabasha Street Caves: Minnesota's Most Haunted

    Okay, so imagine getting your wedding photos back and finding THREE GHOSTLY FIGURES standing behind a kid at your reception. Now imagine those figures are probably the gangsters who got murdered there in the 1930s. Welcome to the Wabasha Street Caves in St. Paul, Minnesota – where John Dillinger used to dance, Ma Barker planned heists, and apparently some mobsters never got the memo that the party’s over. This week I’m diving into one of the most well-documented haunted locations in the Midwest. We’re talking bullet holes still visible in the walls, an actual unsolved gangland murder, newspaper archives, historical photos, and HUNDREDS of witnesses reporting the same phenomena for decades. Plus there’s this wedding photo that tour guides still show people that’ll make your skin crawl. But here’s the twist – you can literally book your wedding there RIGHT NOW. It’s a functioning event venue with swing dancing on Thursday nights. How f*****g cool is that? I’m breaking down the full history: the French mushroom farmers, the Prohibition-era speakeasy, the “safe city” deal between gangsters and corrupt cops, the night someone asked the band to leave early (spoiler: not good), and why these particular ghosts seem obsessed with being nice to kids. Whether you believe in the paranormal or not, this story is *wild*. And it’s all documented, all accessible, all verifiable. Come for the gangster history, stay for the phantom jazz music and the guy in the Panama hat who keeps disappearing through walls.

    The Sausage King of Chicago: Murder, Dissolution & the Ghost that Never Left

    In 1897, Adolph Luetgert — Chicago’s self-made “Sausage King” — became the center of one of the most disturbing and sensational murder cases in American history. When his wife Louisa vanished on the night of May 1st, police followed the evidence straight to the basement of his northwest side sausage factory. What they found there changed criminal justice forever — and allegedly left something behind that never quite left. This week on Creepy Shit Podcast, we break down the fully documented, court-record-verified story of the Luetgert murder case: the lye vat, the bone fragments, the engraved ring, the forensic anthropologist who took the stand in one of America’s earliest uses of forensic science in a murder trial, and the two trials that captivated an entire city. We also get into the ghost sightings that started almost immediately after the crime — the white figure at the fireplace, the watchmen who ran, the twice-relocated house, and the basement that still makes people uneasy today. No embellishment. No invented details. Just the real, documented, deeply unsettling truth — which, as always, is scarier than anything we could make up.
