This week I sit down with Ricky Dick or known by many as 'Gravely MacCabre' the Head Caretaker at my favorite haunted house in the city, The Castle Blood. Castle Blood has been in business for 30 years. The Castle is an interactive, story intensive haunt that allows the guest to participate, and still get the shit scared out of them along the way. From puzzles to riddles to magic, the Castle is full of awesome surprises. I sit down with Ricky and we talk about everything from how he fell in love with Halloween, to how he got started on this interesting path he's carved out for himself, to how he continues to make the Castle such a unique experience every year. I've been attending annually for as long as I've known about Castle Blood and I've never been disappointed. The passion from all the actors and the attention to detail within the Castle are exceptional and the exact reason why Castle Blood is still going strong after three decades. I hope you enjoy our conversation as much as I did. - I cannot urge you enough to check out Castle Blood at: - 100 Shoonmaker Ave Monessen, Pa 15062 - WWW.ILLCALLYOURIGHTBACK.COM - THIS PODCAST IS PROUDLY SPONSORED BY TURNER DAIRY FARMS - Follow us on Instagram - illcallyourightback Follow us on Twitter - ICYRBpodcast Like us on Facebook - I'll Call You Right Back Podcast

#95 Angelmakers- Songs For Female Serial Killers What is it about serial killers that makes us interested in them? My Netflix account is full with documentaries about them. Thousands of books have been written about them. Even I, at a young age was obsessed with all the information I could find. Why they did what they did, and more so, HOW could they do it. In my lead up to Halloween I found something happening in Pittsburgh that I felt was the perfect fit. Angelmakers- Songs For Female Serial Killers written by Molly Rice and Rusty Thelin from Real/Time Interventions that shows at the new Aftershock Theater in Pittsburgh. Men get enough of the spotlight in this area. Fish, Bundy, Gacy, Gaskins, Gibbs, or my personal favorite, Holmes. ( The Devil in the White City: Murder, Magic, and Madness at the Fair That Changed America is the best book, folks) There isn't as much spotlight on women as there are on men, so it is interesting that Real/Time Interventions decided to create a true crime rock concert to showcase some of these women. The show runs October 25th to November 11th. I for one can't wait to gain some new perspective in their troubled lives. The show will feature an all female band, comprised of both local and international talent including- Milia Ayache, Michele Dunlap, and Zorahna. After all, #everyonederservesonesong Go check my previous episode on Castle Blood, if case you missed it, and stay tuned for True Spooky Stories of Pittsburgh Part III!

#94 Castle Blood Pittsburgh has it's fair share of horror attractions, ranging from hay rides, to scare houses, forrest trails, and much more. I have not, however, found an attraction that combines all of my favorites things into one... until now. Castle Blood was introduced to me recently by a fan on my Facebook page. He suggested that the experience was right up my alley, boy was he right! The attraction combines immersive theater, escape rooms, AND haunted houses all in one. Didn't think it was possible? Neither did I. Some may say the only draw back of Castle Blood is it's location. It's "home" is located in Monessen, a short 45-50 minute ride from downtown Pittsburgh. I for one, think it makes it a destination, a planned journey, an adventure. When an event is located right in your city, sometimes it is easy to say "Well, I know it is there. We will go next year!" I think one of it's charms is where Castle Blood is located. While they are trying to revitalize it, Monessen is a forgotten industrial town. Hard to think that Frances McDormand was born there with what it looks like today. Most of the building are vacant, overgrown with foliage. The coke furnaces are still running, so the air seems thick. Hardly anyone walked the streets as we drove up on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. I know this all sound unappealing, but it makes for a perfect spooky experience. Castle Blood is located in a 100 year old old funeral home. (How grand is that?) While this location is relatively new for them, Castle Blood has been operating for over 20 years. I arranged a podcast and tour with owner Ricky Dick. Ricky has been in this industry since the age of 16. He walked us through the house without giving too much away (since I was planning on coming back) The front room gave me legit goosebumps as the original parlor and viewing room. The rest of the space is disorienting, intricate, fun, and spooky. The actors are there with you as teams of 8 take the challenge of getting through various rooms. It really is all of the things I love in one! Tune into this episode as we walk through Castle Blood! This episode is sponsored by Levity, Pittsburgh's premier sensory deprivation experience.
