Pack your bags, we’re heading to Cape Town. The views are gorgeous, the history is messy, and the castle looks way too cheerful for what went down inside. We’ve got colonial drama, questionable decisions, a dungeon called the Dark Hole (subtle), and a governor who may have been taken out by karma mid-power trip.

Into the woods, it's time to go! Well actually the Black Forest. One of the most mysterious and mythical places in the world as far as we are concerned. We have moss women, headless horsemen, a terrifyingly tall man, and of course poor pronunciation and bad geography. Germany has some fascinating paranormal and cryptid tales lurking in those trees.

Today’s episode features a short marriage, a suspicious death, a doctor who wrote “everlasting faint” on a death certificate, and a murder trial that took a wild turn. We’re heading to Greenbrier County, West Virginia, where the history is dramatic, the investigation is questionable, and this story somehow ends up involving an exhumation, a courtroom, and a situation that no one saw coming.

Brown lady, Brown lady, what do you see? I see a Colonel shooting at me! Where exactly? You're not in Kansas Dorothy (that's the ghost btw), you're in Raynham Hall in Norfolk England! Where the ghost is active, the men are gross, and the history goes way back. Do we know how to pronounce things? Not really. Do we figure out roman numerals? Eventually! We're trying our best. So sit back, close your eyes, and astral project into this location with us! We'd appreciate it if you took a moment to help our podcast by rating and reviewing on apple and NOW on Spotify!

This week we’re heading to Florida and taking the elevator down into the history of the Sunland Training Center. A place that started with hopeful intentions, but somewhere along the way the whole system seemed to drop a few floors. Today the buildings are mostly gone, but rumors still have a way of rising back up. We'd appreciate it if you took a moment to help our podcast by rating and reviewing on apple and NOW on Spotify!

We are back with season six! Thanks for letting us take a break, we're ready to jump back into the ghost tour trolley. Metaphorically. This week we talk about McRaven Mansion in Mississippi. We have a lot of owners haunting this place from a highway man, to a former lady of the house, and maybe a whole family? We also have a murder, neck beards to discuss, and of course Civil War lore.

For our final episode of the season, we limp our way across the Atlantic to Chillingham Castle, a medieval fortress that spent centuries collecting war trauma like it was a hobby. Sitting on one of the most violently contested borders in British history, this place didn’t need ghosts to become unsettling, the documented history already chose violence.

Our lives have been as chaotic as this location. We mind travel to California (not Tennessee) to talk about the infamous Winchester House. It's massive and confusing floorplan was a strange comfort to your two hosts who have all but lost their minds toward the end of this season. The house's foundations are supposedly built on spirit stories. But what is other worldly and what is just weird? We try to find the line but dammit, the staircase to nowhere keeps getting us.We'd appreciate it if you took a moment to help our podcast by rating and reviewing on apple and NOW on Spotify!
