And for the estimated 100,000 dead in Venice, most of them met their end on a small island just off the mainland. Poveglia. It became the site of hundreds of mass graves called Plague Pits, and the citizens of Venice claimed the island had become inhabited by ghosts and evil spirits.  But the City of Venice thought it would be a good idea to build an Asylum right on top.

Welcome Back to Honestly? Haunted. Abby and Erin are thrilled to bring you a brand new season of spooktacular episodes. To start off Season 2, they will be doing a tour of the Who's Who of Haunted in the European Union. And their first stop is the Houska Castle in the Czech Republic. A 13th Century Gothic Castle built into a cliffside with no access to water, removed from all major roadways, and defensive measures that face inside rather than out. That tells us one thing. It wasn't built to keep someone out, it was built to keep something in. We've got a new and improved Patreon with TONS of content!

Nestled in the Talamanca Mountains of  Costa Rica rests an abandoned Sanatorium. The decrepit structure had sheltered many lives since 1915 when it was built. It served as a ward for tuberculous patients, an asylum for the mentally ill, an orphanage, and even a prison. There can be a lot of darkness and negative energy associated with places like this, but for some reason, this place seems to bring people a great deal of peace when they visit. The caretakers of the property remind all visitors, respect these grounds, and they will respect you back.

Stalkers typically stalk other people right? That's what we always thought. Until we heard this story from Westfield, New Jersey, where a family's dream home was apparently someone else's too.  The Broaddus family was just looking to make a fresh start in suburban life, but what should have been a great experience turned into a nightmare. The family started getting terrifying letters that spoke of things hidden in the walls of their new home and made terrible threats against the family's young children.
