    In this episode of Lurk, we travel to the historic—and notoriously haunted—Crescent Hotel in Eureka Springs, Arkansas. Perched high in the Ozark Mountains, this grand Victorian structure has been many things over the past century: a luxury resort, an elite girls’ school, and most infamously, a fraudulent cancer hospital run by the charismatic con man Norman Baker. Its long and troubled history has left behind more than just stories—it’s said to be one of the most haunted hotels in America. We dive into the hotel’s tragic past, exploring the legends and documented history that shaped its reputation. You’ll hear about: Michael, the Irish stonemason who fell to his death during construction and still roams Room 218.The spirit of a young woman in white, believed to have been a student during the hotel’s boarding school days.Ghostly nurses, mysterious figures in mirrors, and unexplained footsteps echoing through the old hospital wings.The chilling legacy of Dr. Norman Baker, whose “hospital” led to countless deaths—and whose former morgue remains a hotspot of strange activity.Through eyewitness accounts, historical details, and the hotel’s most unsettling paranormal encounters, we uncover why the Crescent continues to draw ghost hunters, historians, and the curious from all over the world. If you’ve ever wondered what lingers in the halls of the Crescent Hotel after the sun sets over the Ozarks, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.

    Ep 167 Death in the Devil’s Valley: The Horsesay & Hardisty Mystery

    In this episode of Lurk, we enter the vast and haunting expanse of the Nahanni Valley—one of Canada’s most remote wilderness regions and the source of countless legends, unexplained deaths, and chilling disappearances. Known ominously as The Valley of the Headless Men, the area has long held a reputation for swallowing travelers whole. (Listen to Episode 150 for more details into the mysterious Nahanni Valley) This time, we examine the mysterious fate of David Horsesay and Frank Hardisty, two outdoorsmen who ventured into the Nahanni simply to enjoy the wilderness and hunt. Experienced, capable, and familiar with the land, they expected adventure—not tragedy. But when the men failed to return, searchers uncovered unsettling clues that raised far more questions than answers. What happened to Horsesay and Hardisty in the valley’s deep, winding canyons? Was it misadventure? An encounter with something—or someone—dangerous? Or did they fall victim to the same eerie forces blamed for decades of strange deaths in the region? Follow us as we retrace their ill-fated trip into a land where the wilderness is unforgiving, the legends are long, and the truth—like the valley itself—remains shadowed.

    Ep 166 The Haunted Trail: New Hampshire Part 2

    Welcome back, Lurkers, to another bone-chilling stretch of our Haunted Trail series — where we trek the Appalachian Trail and uncover the dark legends, ghostly encounters, and mysterious disappearances that haunt its rugged path. In this episode, we pick up our journey at Flume Gorge in Franconia Notch, a place of breathtaking beauty — and unsettling energy.  From there, we follow the trail north through the White Mountains, where the wilderness grows darker and the legends more chilling.  Further along, the trail winds near the Presidential Range, where storms strike without warning — and where stories of spectral hikers, phantom lights, and the doomed climbers of Mount Washington blur the line between myth and memory. Finally, our journey descends toward the towns of Gorham and Berlin. This northernmost stretch of New Hampshire’s trail holds secrets that refuse to rest. So lace up your boots and keep your lanterns close — because on this leg of the Haunted Trail, every gust of wind and flicker of light could be something… or someone… watching from the trees. 👻 Listen If You Enjoy: Appalachian Trail ghost stories and disappearancesParanormal tales tied to real hiking routesAtmospheric wilderness storytellingSubscribe & Follow: Don’t miss future episodes of Lurk!

    Ep 163 Cursed Foundations: The Haunted Ram Inn

    Tucked away in the English countryside at Wotton-under-Edge sits one of the most infamous haunted locations in the world—the Ancient Ram Inn. Built in the 12th century, this former inn has a reputation steeped in chilling legends: pagan rituals, child sacrifices, demonic infestations, and restless spirits tied to the land itself. In this episode of Lurk, we explore the dark history and terrifying hauntings of the Ram Inn. From shadowy figures and spectral children to encounters with something far darker than ghosts, the inn has terrified visitors for decades. Paranormal investigators, skeptics, and thrill-seekers alike have all walked through its crooked halls—many leaving shaken by what they experienced. Is the Ram Inn truly cursed by the foundations it was built upon, or do centuries of fear and folklore fuel its reputation as England’s most haunted building?

    Ep 162 Pascagoula UFO: The 1973 Abduction

    In October 1973, two Mississippi men—Charles Hickson and Calvin Parker—claimed they were taken aboard a strange craft while fishing on the Pascagoula River. What they described was unlike any other UFO report at the time: robotic beings with claw-like hands, paralyzing fear, and a chilling medical-like examination. The story made headlines across the country, drawing the attention of law enforcement, journalists, and UFO investigators. Some dismissed the account as a hoax, but recordings of the men made in secret revealed something far harder to explain—their terror was real. In this episode of Lurk, we dive into the Pascagoula UFO abduction, exploring what happened that night, how Hickson and Parker’s lives were forever changed, and why this case remains one of the most compelling alien abduction accounts in American history. Join us as we unravel one of the strangest close encounters ever reported—the night visitors came to Mississippi. Subscribe & Follow: Don’t miss future episodes of Lurk!
