In this episode, we wrap up our three-part Death Valley series by diving into the 2000 documentary Amargosa—and let's just say… we had thoughts.We get into Megan's slow burn experience with the film (it took about an hour to click… but when it did, it really did), while Amy was immediately charmed by its very specific “1970s educational film” vibe—grainy footage, questionable cinematography, and all. Somehow, this thing both feels amateur and also won an Emmy, which… we're still processing.But what really pulled us in wasn't the filmmaking—it was MartaWe talk about her resilience, her wildly difficult upbringing, her complicated relationships, and how she somehow came out the other side as this deeply optimistic, slightly woo-woo, fully committed artist who just… did whatever the hell brought her joy. Whether that was painting murals she didn't own, performing for empty rooms, or building an entire life in the middle of nowhere, Marta didn't wait for permission.So, grab your wildflower seeds and join us where… The Activity Continues.Content Warning:We didn't find anything we thought deserved a content warning, but we did swear.Chapter Markers 00:00:00 Hello/Intro00:17:00 Side Quest: School Movies from Our Youth00:28:15 Marta and the Animals00:29:00 Back to Wilget00:32:54 Marta Looking Toward the Future00:35:52 Question for Everyone00:38:36 Other Shows Featuring Amargosa00: 47:19 End creditsEpisode links:Amargosa: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0229976/ - you can watch on Amazon Prime ($) or Tubi (free)Weird Tales 4: The Ghosts of Death Valley Junction: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1783417/ (Tubi free)Ghost Adventures Season 2 episode 11: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1789274/Central California Paranormal Investigators: https://www.facebook.com/ccpifresno/Blog about films shown in school.

Recapping The Dead Files “Death Valley” (Season 2 Episode 19) which aired May 17, 2013.This is the first episode in our three-part series based on this episode of The Dead Files.In this episode, we switch things up and go back to our roots—Amy watches the episode and recaps it for Megan, who comes in completely blind (and highly caffeinated). What starts as a simple desert haunting quickly turns into a “wait… what is this place?” situation. We talk about the bizarre reality of Death Valley Junction—a “town” that is basically just one property, an opera house, and a hotel sitting in the middle of nowhere. Amy Allan is immediately overwhelmed, Steve asks the important questions (and misses a few obvious ones… looking at you, Dracula nails), and we spiral into discussions about scratches, ghostly bed-sitters, and whether older skin is just out here betraying us. There are tangents (of course), including our old recording habits, late-night exhaustion, and the realization that we've always been like this… we're just better at editing it now.Also: ring shots, reservoirs, and the very real possibility that this entire place is just… off. So, grab your coffee (before we have to take another break to refill it) and join us where… The Activity Continues. Content Warning: In this episode we mention suicide so trigger warning for those who need it. Also, we swear.Crisis Text Line is a global nonprofit organization founded in 2013 that provides mental-health support through text messaging.In the U.S., people can text “HOME” to 741741 to connect with a live trained crisis counselor.The service is free, confidential, and available 24/7.They support people dealing with things like anxiety, loneliness, bullying, substance use, self-harm, and suicidal thoughts.Also, while Amy and Steve's swears are bleeped on TV, ours are not.Chapter Markers 00:04:23 Hello!00:07:38 Content Warning & Housekeeping00:10:31 Segment One – The Set Up00:27:02 Side Quest: Knitting00:30:01 Segment Two – Diggin' Tru00:30:23 Side Quest: Bongos is Bahrain00:42:17 Segment Three – The Reveal00: 47:06 Next week00:47:06 Outro/DisclaimerrEpisode links:Property's Official Page: https://www.amargosaoperahouse.org/Amargosa at Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amargosa_Opera_House_and_HotelMarta Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marta_BecketSome nice photos of the opera house inside. https://www.theyellowdesk.com/single-post/2017/06/13/the-dark-beauty-of-the-amargosa-opera-house-hotel-part-iiAmargosa (2000) the movie https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0229976/ You can watch it on Tubi for free.TAC Woodpecker Ts: https://www.zazzle.com/woodpecker_headache_remedy_t_shirt-256058499501832692Or https://www.redbubble.com/shop/ap/176270054The Activity Continues is a paranormal podcast where soul friends Amy and Megan chat about true crime, ghost stories, hauntings, dreams, and other paranormal stuff including the TV show, The Dead Files.

You're not getting the full story. Not because it doesn't exist—but because it never makes it to you. In this episode, Rob Rosen and I break down how media narratives are shaped long before they reach your screen. We cover:Why some stories explode while others disappearThe pressure points behind media decision-makingHow “acceptable narratives” are enforced without direct ordersThe illusion of independent reportingWhat this means for how you interpret the worldThis isn't about left vs. right. It's about understanding the system behind both. If you want to think clearly in a manipulated environment—start here.  FROM HIS BIO: Rob Rosen is an award-winning investigative journalist, producer, and director with more than thirty years of experience in news and television. He created, directed, and served as showrunner of the investigative true-crime series Reasonable Doubt, which ran for five seasons and currently streams on Max. Thanks in part to the show's reporting, nine inmates profiled on the series were released, with some fully exonerated.  Rosen also created and directed the limited series The Infomercials That Sold Us starring Dennis Miller, now streaming on Fox Nation, and served as showrunner and executive producer of the long-running paranormal series The Dead Files, which ran for 15 seasons on Max.  He began his career in news as an Emmy Award-winning producer for KCBS in Los Angeles, and later worked as an on-air correspondent for the nationally syndicated program Celebrity Justice. Rosen is a graduate of the Boston University College of Communication and a member of the DGA and SAG/AFTRA.

This week we're recapping The Dead Files “Buried” (Season 14, Episode 11) which originally aired February 3, 2023. Amy and Megan close out their Ohio series with a case that somehow includes: teachers recommending paranormal investigators, a basement ghost who apparently runs a burial service, and one very stressed nine-year-old who just wants to go back to being a “playful boy.” Along the way, we discuss the truly wild moment when Kingston's teachers tell his mom she should call The Dead Files, debate whether ghost kids are ever a good sign (spoiler: absolutely not), and wonder why Steve always asks clients if they've been “taking any weed.” We also tackle the real mysteries of the episode, like why the show suddenly discovered drone shots, why Word absolutely refuses to learn how to spell Steve DiSchiavi, and how a ghost can apparently keep burying the same victim over and over while yelling “stay dead.” Plus: woodpecker headaches, ghost LEGO buddies, purse-strap demonstrations, basement dread, and a brief but passionate discussion about woodpeckers that absolutely nobody asked for. PonderIf a ghost is trying to keep their victim quiet by repeatedly burying them in the basement… does that mean the haunting is less about revenge and more about covering up a crime that refuses to stay buried?WitnessBoth Amy and Megan try to explain things that they have no business explaining.Weigh-InIf your child's teachers told you they think your kid is seeing ghosts… and suggested you call paranormal investigators…would you be relieved someone believes them, or immediately start looking for a new school? So grab your bird-watching book and join us where…The Activity Continues.  Content Warning: In this episode we mention child death in history (fire), so please consider before listening. But if you watch The Dead Files, you should be fine. Also we swear.Chapter Markers 00:00:49 Hello!00:01:33 Housekeeping00:02:53 Overview of “Buried”00:07:07 Segment One – The Set Up00:12:11 Side Quest: Woodpecker of a Headache00:16:29 Side Quest: Besties!00:24:57 Calling Editors of TDF00:26:21 Segment Two – Diggin' Tru00:44:58 Segment Three – The Reveal00:54:22 Research & Rabbit Holes01:07:13 Side Quest: Dances with Wolves01:08:18 Kent State Ghost Story01:11:59 Outro/DisclaimerEpisode links:East Cleveland Police in trubs: https://fox8.com/news/3-former-east-cleveland-officers-sentenced-to-prison/Molly Petelinker's grave: https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/160820037/molly-petelinkarLake View/Collinwood School https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collinwood_school_fireKent State Today: https://www.kent.edu/today/news/flash-kent-state-ghost-storyTop 10 most haunted places in Ohio: https://trip101.com/article/haunted-places-in-ohioOur Woodpecker Ts: https://www.zazzle.com/woodpecker_headache_remedy_t_shirt-256058499501832692Or https://www.redbubble.com/shop/ap/176270054Recommend a Dead Files episode for us to recap (Amy's spreadsheet): https://www.theactivitycontinues.com/recommend-your-favorite-dead-files-epsiode/The Dead Files Official Podcast: https://pod.link/1642377102 The Activity Continues is a paranormal podcast where soul friends Amy and Megan chat about true crime, ghost stories, hauntings, dreams, and other paranormal stuff including the TV show, The Dead Files.

And yes, Steve is once again diggin' tru the archives.But what we really found ourselves talking about? The baby.When a toddler becomes central to a paranormal narrative, things get complicated.

Recapping The Dead Files “Tangled” (Season 10, Episode 2) which aired June 22, 2013We kick off our Ohio Three-Fer with shadow snakes, basement rage, and a 19th-century commune that absolutely did not get good Yelp reviews from the town. This house isn't just haunted — it's rooted.Black vine-like tendrils creep through the land and into the living, and we unpack what happens when depression, history, and paranormal energy all tangle together.We talk Free Love backlash, Victorian motherhood (twelve children??), morphine, menopause vs. malevolent spirits, and whether tar water is a reasonable Amazon purchase or a sign it's time to move.It's eerie. It's layered. It's feral.Ponder: If negative energy can embed in land… can it spread like an infection?Witness: Steve calling the commune “woo woo crap” while literally working on a ghost show.Weigh-In: If Amy told you to spray tar water around your entire house — would you stay… or would you move?So, grab your tar water (don't miss a spot!), and join us where… The Activity Continues. Content Warning: We didn't find anything we thought deserved a content warning, but we swear.  Chapter Markers00:00:00 Intro00:05:55 A Word on AI00:08:45 Testing a New Format00:09:41 Side Quest: When You Wash Your Hair00:11:51 Spirit Breakdown00:15:16 Diggin' Tru00:16:38 It Takes a Village00:28:57 Parenting is Hard00:31:10 The Vines00:33:47 The Reveal00:34:33 Clients' Options00:39:34 Steve Getting Dramatic00:40:12 Unstable Ghosts, and Tables00:43:25 Paranormal or Menopause00:49:14 Additional Research Notes00:58:56 Disclaimer/Credits Episode links:Hudson Tuttle: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hudson_TuttleThe Museum of Talking Boards: https://www.museumoftalkingboards.com/tuttle.htmlCharles Latcha's Suicide Manifesto: https://evermore.imagedjinn.com/blg/9883/suicide-of-a-free-love-at-berlin-heights-july-16-1858/Tar Water on Amazon: https://amzn.to/4qEDcFoOur T-Shirts: https://www.zazzle.com/woodpecker_headache_remedy_t_shirt-256058499501832692Recommend a Dead Files episode for us to recap: https://www.theactivitycontinues.com/recommend-your-favorite-dead-files-epsiode/The Dead Files Official Podcast: https://pod.link/1642377102Amazon links could generate a small commission to us at no cost to you.  The Activity Continues is a paranormal podcast where soul friends Amy and Megan chat about true crime, ghost stories, hauntings, dreams, and other paranormal stuff including the TV show, The Dead Files.

This was a listener request from long-time supporter, Zoey! Thank you Zoey!Steve and Amy travel to rural Michigan to help a family whose dream home has become a waking nightmare. What begins as reports of footsteps, shadow figures, and unexplained injuries quickly escalates into something far darker. The basement of this home appears to be holding dozens of hostile, negative entities, including a powerful shadow figure with violent intentions.As the investigation unfolds, we talk about:·        A terrifying concentration of negative spirits in one location·        Physical injuries, scratches, and life-altering accidents·        Trauma, PTSD, and how past abuse may intersect with paranormal experiences·        The psychological vs. paranormal question (and where it breaks down)·        Why doors, stairs, and basements are never just architectural features on The Dead Files·        Also don't forget the side quests: Minnesota weather, headaches, and sleep socks (yes or no?)It's disturbing. It's emotional. And it raises one big question:How the hell do you end up with fifty bad dead people in your basement? So, grab your footie jammies, and join us where… The Activity Continues. Content WarningsThis episode contains discussion of:·        Childhood sexual abuse·        Suicide·        Miscarriage / infant loss·        PTSD and trauma·        Self-harm·        Physical injury and medical trauma Listener discretion is strongly advised.

Recapping The Dead Files “Am I Crazy?” (Season 1 Episode 6) which aired 2011. This week, we kick off Season 7 by revisiting “Am I Crazy?”, a case that asks a familiar question with an uncomfortable twist: is the homeowner losing her grip on reality, or uncovering a long-buried truth no one wanted exposed?In Great Falls, Montana, Kelly believes she's being contacted by the spirit of Valeria Gibson, a woman erased from the historical record and dismissed in death as “hysterical.”Through dreams, intuition, and a growing pile of unsettling clues, Kelly uncovers a story that doesn't match the official version, and medium Amy Allan corroborates that story.As Steve Dischiavi digs for missing blueprints, vanished records, and suspicious inconsistencies, a pattern emerges: when women tell the truth, history has a habit of calling them unstable. But three women—Valeria, Kelly, and Amy—tell the same story across time.She's not crazy. She's just not being believed.So… is this a haunting? A cover-up? Or both?So, grab your Nespresso, and join us where… The Activity Continues. Content Warning:We didn't find anything we thought deserved a content warning, but we will use colorful language.

It's the end of another wild and weird year on The Activity Continues! In this season finale, Amy and Megan hunker down with cocoa, cozy blankets, and a healthy dose of sarcasm to look back on all things TAC 2025. We revisit our favorite moments, share clips from standout episodes, and shout out the listeners and Patreon crew who keep us (mostly) sane. Buckle up for haunted Minnesota, listener requests, out-of-context pig facts (yep, you read that right), gratitude for the lovely people we interviewed this year, and our ongoing quest for the perfect ghost story. There's talk of imaginary friends, spirit guides, investigating haunted hotels (with adult diapers and crystals, obviously), and a whole lot of gratitude for everyone who stuck around through the shenanigans. But don't get misty-eyed—this is just our season wrap, not a goodbye! We'll be back after a short break with even more ghostly antics, wild tangents, and haunted hijinks. So grab your spreadsheet, your “brave pants,” and maybe a crystal or two, and join us where… The Activity Continues. Content Warning:We didn't find anything we thought deserved a content warning, except that we use colorful language. The Activity Continues is a paranormal podcast where soul friends, Amy and Megan chat about ghost stories, haunts, dreams, and other supernatural and paranormal stuff including the TV show, The Dead Files.

This week we're recapping The Dead Files episode “House of Mirrors,” but — in true TAC fashion — we veer wildly off the rails in the best possible ways. We also talked about Megan's full-blown Oregon Chai obsession, Amy's unexpected backyard cryptid sighting, whether possums are adorable or demonic, why yelling at ghosts never works, and the ongoing “tree burial vs. cremation vs. body farm” debate that absolutely will not die. We talk of the upcoming season finale, listener suggestions for new investigations, potential paranormal podcast crossovers, and haunted places within road-trip distance that the TAC crew could visit in 2026. Prepare for tricksters, history, side quests, and a whole lot of laughing at the absurdity of it all. So grab your Oregon chai (trust us), get cozy, and join us…where The Activity Continues. Content Warning: In this episode we mention suicide by hanging (or was it?) and some child death in history. Also, while Amy and Steve's swears are bleeped on TV, ours are not. Chapter Markers00:00:26 Intro00:01:30 Content Warning & Housekeeping00:06:43 Segment One – The Set Up00:28:03 Segment Two – The Investigation00:44:08 Discussion of Hanging00:45:56 Segment Three – The Reveal00:56:34 Research and Rabbit Holes01:01:48 Outro/Disclaimer Episode links:Oregon Chai Tea Concentrate: https://amzn.to/4p4k3g3The Dead Files Official Podcast: https://pod.link/1642377102Amazon links could generate a small commission to us at no cost to you. The Activity Continues is a paranormal podcast where soul friends Amy and Megan chat about true crime, ghost stories, hauntings, dreams, and other paranormal stuff including the TV show, The Dead Files.

We sit down with psychic medium Patti Negri to explore Dollcraft, her new hands-on guide to inviting the right spirit, banishing the wrong one, and caring for doll vessels without wrecking your life. When a low-vibration hitchhiker shows up, she shares how to banish, reset, and re-establish boundaries—illustrated by the transformation of Patti's doll “Belle,” whose dark attachment gave way to a kind child spirit after a little dollcraft. The conversation moves beyond dolls into cleansing practices, and Patti issues a warning about over-using sage. We also seem to have finally found a perfect person to ask about spectrophilia, and with an open mind and great sense of humor, Patti talks about the pros and cons of having sex with ghosts. Our conversation offers cheeky (yet practical) tips and bold ideas about physical intimacy with a deceased loved one. In forecasting the rest of 2025, Patti invokes the dragon—an ancient, cross-cultural protector that “lives at the crossroads.” She explains how to create, feed, and task a dragon fetish to focus your will, protect your space, and attract opportunities. Homespun Haints is a huge collection of seven years worth of true, first-hand audio and video ghost stories.

Where Shadow People DwellEpisode 457 | October 13, 2025 In Tonight's Episode of Paranormal Mysteries...I'll be returning to the subject of Shadow People. For many experiencers, these entities invoke an unimaginable fear that rivals almost any other type of unexplained phenomena. In fact, since I began the show in 2017, the topic of Shadow People has been one of the most prevalent, and terrifying, types of experiences that my listeners share with me. And although most witnesses fully admit that they have no idea what these things are, or what their intentions might be, the one thing that almost everyone agrees upon is that they are malevolent in nature, and seem to feed off the dread that they conjure within us.(For a full transcript, visit https://paranormalmysteriespodcast.com/episodes)Episode 26 - Shadow People and The Hat Man: https://www.spreaker.com/episode/shadow-people-and-the-hat-man-an-introduction-026--16130496INFO & CONTACTWebsite: https://paranormalmysteriespodcast.comTell Your Story: https://paranormalmysteriespodcast.com/tell-your-storyForum: https://paranormalmysteriespodcast.com/forumSUPPORT THE SHOWPatreon: https://paranormalmysteriespodcast.com/patreonBuy Me A Coffee: https://paranormalmysteriespodcast.com/bmacPayPal: https://paranormalmysteriespodcast.com/paypalFOLLOW & SUBSCRIBEYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ParanormalMysteriesPodcastSocial Media: https://paranormalmysteriespodcast.com/linksPodcast Source: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/paranormal-mysteries--2321086My Wife's Podcast: https://paranormalmysteriespodcast.com/sleep-relaxation-podcastSOURCESHouse of Shadows Experience: https://www.liveabout.com/encountering-the-shadow-people-2596475Dread Central: https://www.dreadcentral.com/news/37655/exclusive-opening-the-dead-files-an-in-depth-interview-with-amy-allan/The Dead Files: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2012511/Art Bell: https://artbellarchive.org/Coast to Coast AM: https://www.coasttocoastam.com/Midnight in the Desert: https://archive.org/details/Art-Bell_Midnight_In_the_DesertDavid Weatherly: https://eerielights.com/

 A haunted country club, an unsolved murder, and a lot of side-eye at the ‘official story.'This week, we take a detour from The Dead Files and dip our toes into Kindred Spirits (Season 7, Episode 10): The Country Club Murders. Set at the eerily elegant Black Knight Country Club in Beckley, West Virginia, this episode delivers high paranormal drama, low lighting, and medium-level mediumship.A couple murdered on Lover's Lane. A doctor who may or may not have tripped to his death (hi, McCulloch). An explosion beneath the golf course. And Chip Coffey in a skull scarf. What more could you want?We discuss the hauntings, the history, the residual energy, and yes—the totally not-suspicious husband who was conveniently unaccounted for the night of the murder.

Recapping The Dead Files “Vengeance” (Season 10 Episode 1) which aired July 25, 2015. This week on The Activity Continues, Megan and Amy dive into The Dead Files episode “Vengeance” set in Albuquerque, New Mexico.When a woman inherits her family's beloved restaurant in Albuquerque's Old Town, she embraces her role as caretaker of both the business and its rich legacy. But after decades of whispers, sightings, and strange activity, they are ready for answers. Who still lingers in the historic building—and why? They're curious—and concerned about what, if anything, they should be doing for the spirits that still call the place home.As the team investigates, a dark legacy emerges involving an 1880s lawman with blood on his hands, a furious female spirit from the 1920s, and a violent, lingering energy that's hurting the living. Content Warning: In this episode there is quite a bit of talk about infant and child death, as well as botched hanging executions, so trigger warning for those who need it. Also, we swear.

What if face-planting onto a tile floor from three feet up turned out to be the most transformative moment of your life? For Jen Mitchell Love, a family law attorney with 19 years of experience, that's exactly what happened during what should have been a routine (albeit admittedly ill-advised) breathwork session in a steam room.Upon regaining consciousness with blood pooling around her, Jen received a visit from her ancestors, along with a clear message: "You have come here to do big things, and you need to do them!" What followed were five days of extraordinary experiences that completely transformed her perception of reality ("was that a glitch...in the sky?") and her life's purpose.After recognizing that the conventional divorce system destroys families rather than helping them heal, Jen transformed her legal practice into Solace Divorce Mediation. Now she guides couples through divorce as a soul journey, incorporating concepts of reflection, soul contracts, and inner healing into the legal process. Jen's story is ultimately about navigating life—do we externalize our problems, blaming others and circumstances, or do we look inward to discover the reflections that can lead to our evolution? Find more info about Jen, her book, and her work in the show notes for this episode, which live at HomespunHaints.com/fifth-dimension-divorceEpisode promo: The Activity Continues is a podcast where three soul friends talk about all things paranormal.

Recapping The Dead Files, Season 6, Episode 7: Afflicted (Aired June 13, 2015)In this powerful 150th episode, Amy and Megan revisit The Dead Files case titled “Afflicted,” where a single mother in Covington, Louisiana, pleads for help as her family is terrorized by a dark, unseen force. Physical attacks, emotional torment, and a terrifying presence have shattered their home—and possibly their lives.Steve DiSchiavi uncovers a turbulent past filled with addiction, heartbreak, and violent death. Meanwhile, Amy Allan encounters a demon-like entity that thrives on human suffering, especially addiction, and warns that it could claim a soul forever.

Well, well, well...if it isn't the consequences of one's own actions rearing their heads. At least two people in this story are getting their just desserts.In this episode, we head to Seattle to revisit one of The Dead Files' early cases—This time, Amy and AP dive into "Burned Alive", where a bar owner is dealing with vengeful mist creatures, a bathroom ghost, a possibly syphilitic protector spirit, and a religious woman ghost named Mary whose touch can literally kill you. So, that's fun.This Dead Files episode (S5 E7) originally aired June 13, 2015.We talk about the Merchant Cafe and Saloon—one of Seattle's oldest bars—and the heavy energy tied to its long, sometimes tragic, history. Highlights include:A wine rack catastrophe that even Steve can't rationalize.Some early 2000s mood lighting choices and Top Chef nostalgia.Theories about sepsis, pneumonia, and why paranormal illness may not be all that paranormal.And yes, the horrifying realities of mob justice in the 1800s. (Spoiler: it's not the fun kind of mob.)Also discussed: haunted dolls, ghostly health risks, Empress Gin color science, and a little behind-the-scenes peek on the making of our show.So grab your shaky lime and haunted barware, and join us—where The Activity Continues. Chapter Markers 00:00:00 Intro00:05:31 Hello!00:05:41 Overview00:09:10 Segment One – The Set Up00:45:26 Segment Two – Diggin' Tru01:04:07 Segment Three – The Reveal01:20:12 Outro/DisclaimerContent Warning: In this episode we talk about a horrific hanging that took place around the area.

Doll historian and witch Heather Green unpacks the mysterious world of haunted dolls, explaining how they function as portals for spirits rather than becoming possessed objects themselves. She draws on her extensive knowledge of doll history and the occult to help us distinguish between "inspirited" dolls that have absorbed energy over time, and "ensouled" dolls that serve as anchors for specific spirits.In this interview, Heather teaches us:• Dolls can be "inspirited" with energy from years of human interaction without being haunted• Most haunted dolls function as portals rather than possessed objects• Destroying a haunted doll can make the haunting worse• Tarot can be an effective tool for communicating with doll-attached spiritsHeather also hosts a weekly podcast called "The Witches Movie Coven," discussing films from a witch's perspective. Learn more about her at https://www.heathergreene.net, or in the show notes for this episode at homespunhaints.com.And remember, there's no such thing as a free kitten.The Activity Continues is a podcast where three soul friends talk about all things paranormal. Ghosts, hauntings, psychics, movies and TV shows (especially The Dead Files) and other spooky and spooky-adjacent things as well.We also like to interview people in the paranormal community as well as past Dead Files clients and other interesting people.Sometimes we even tell your stories.So, grab your beverage of choice and join us where… The Activity Continues.Support the show

This week, Amy and Megan dive headfirst into one of the darkest and most disturbing Dead Files episodes yet: Season 10, Episode 1 – “Taken.” Set in Mahwah, New Jersey (which yes, is north of NYC—who knew?!), this case features shadow people, child spirits, and one truly unnerving ghost bear creeping through the house… on tiptoes.The haunting centers on Jen, her husband Gary, and their four kids. What starts as “we think the house might be haunted” quickly escalates into “multiple demonic entities are trying to possess our children.” It's heavy, it's heartbreaking, and somehow we still find time to make jokes about Switzerland, snack breaks, and John Candy.Topics include:

We've managed to cobble together another themed Q&A episode, this week dealing with questions around Inheritance Tax, Trusts and Care planning. Lots for Roger and Pete to get stuck into! Shownotes: https://meaningfulmoney.tv/QA18  00:48  Question 1 Hi Pete, Hi Rog, Thanks for your ongoing work on the Podcast, I've been listening for many years and have learned a great deal from you both. Keep up the good work! My question is in relation to trusts. My parents, both aged 70, have recently got round to updating their wills, putting POA in place for finance and health and have been in discussion with a solicitor about putting a trust in place, primarily to safeguard their assets from being used up in the event of them having to go into care in later life. At present I believe their estate to be approximately £600,000 including their house which I would imagine is worth approximately £250,000. The rest is made up of savings. I don't believe their estate would be subject to inheritance tax so I don't believe this is the reason for setting up a trust. I have listened back to your previous episodes on trusts but I was wondering, firstly whether much has changed since these podcasts in relation to the general setting up and management of a trust? Secondly I wondered if you could explain the negatives to my parents putting the majority of their assets into trust, namely are there any ongoing fees, can my parents take assets out of the trust should they need to and what are the tax implications for the beneficiaries when my parents pass away? Would any of these things change in the period where only one of them has passed away? I appreciate this is a huge topic and you may not be able to address all of these queries but it appears they have been advised of the positive parts of this process but I would like to ensure we are aware of the potential pitfalls. Thanks once again! Jon 11:10  Question 2 Hi Pete and Roger, Still loving the show and I'm enjoying the current variation in format - keep up the fantastic work! My question relates to estate planning: My wife and I own our home (mortgage free) 50/50 as tenants in common. We have up-to-date wills, LPAs, expressions of wishes and "Dead Files" set up. Each half of the house will be left to our daughter as and when, with the appropriate "right to reside" wording in place for the remaining partner. We are both in our late fifties, so hopefully not needed for many years yet. The IHT side is fine as it's just numbers - allowances and values etc. What I can't quite get my head around is any potential CGT liability for our daughter following the second death. Not so much for the financial impact, as she is already comfortable in her own right (with my and - via the podcast - your encouragement over the years) and will inherit further monies when we pass, but more from a planning perspective. I have looked online and disappeared down several rabbit holes, but from what I can gather although she inherits half the house on the first death, essentially because the surviving partner continues to live in it and therefore any actual money can't be realised, CGT is only calculated from the date of the second death (assuming she sells the house at that point). Is this correct, or will her CGT liability on half of the value start on the first death and be based on (half of) the house valuation at that time, as obtained for that probate? Maybe I'm taking the planning a little too far, but I like to be prepared. These circumstances will be more and more relevant to families over time, I'm sure. Your usual wisdom and common-sense views would be very much appreciated (even if the answer is "...it depends!"). Thank you again for the information and humour the two of you provide each week - long may you continue! Best wishes, Glen 16:11  Question 3 Hi guys Thank you both for a great podcast, big shout-out to Rog because he gets missed off sometimes in these testimonials – genuinely wish I had found this podcast years ago. Have made so many past mistakes but now correcting them one by one! I have a question about care costs which I hope you could answer. My mum is suffering from late stage dementia and my dad who is her 24/7 carer is struggling to cope (they are both 80yo). I have PoA for my mum and am trying to involve myself more in her care plan going forwards. Care (in the home initially) is going to be required and I was wondering how this is paid for. My parents worked hard and have reasonably large savings and investments in both their individual names and in joint names and the extent of these means they would have to pay for care. What we are not clear on is whether money or investments in my mum's name would ONLY be used to pay for her care or whether jointly held money or investments would be used or whether anything in my father's name would also be used to pay for care? I've tried to find the answer to this online but cannot find a clear answer so remain confused! Also are there things that we should be doing to manage this better – end of life planning, trusts etc etc? My dad worked incredibly hard to provide something to his grandchildren and he is actively putting off getting help and harming himself for fear that he won't be able to pass something down to his grandchildren – this is incredibly sad and feels cruel. Any advice that you could give would be much appreciated. Keep up the great work David R 23:30  Question 4 Hello Pete & Roger, Firstly I want to say thank you so much for all the work you do to teach all us mere mortals how to navigate the world of personal finance. I have a question: Everyone talks about merging finances with a partner and then having children. I am in my mid 40s and my children are early 20s. I have a partner and I hope to move in with him one day (he has no children) I might move in with one of mine. How do I protect what I currently have and ensure that goes to my boys? He has considerably more than I do and I don't expect him to support or pass anything on to my boys. I understand I don't want to do a mirror will but would I do a “prenup”? We aren't getting married. Is there a cut off point “moving in day” where everything after that is split 50/50 with the new partners? Or am I over thinking this? I have been through one divorce and don't want to again but I do want to protect what is mine for the sake of my boys. Any advice would be very welcome. Thank you and keep up the AMAZING work. Kind regards, Carla. 28:56  Question 5 Hi Pete, Roger, Nick, Ruth and everyone else in your fantastic team. I have a few questions around a niche scenario that I can't find answers to online. I'm hoping you can point me in the right direction. My parents-in-law were convinced to transfer their home into an asset protection trust in the past before I met them (more than 10 years ago, as I think that's relevant). They were told it would help avoid having to pay care costs. They now know this was never going to be suitable for them, and are looking to mitigate the damage. I suspect the names McLures Solicitors, Jones Whyte, Andrey Robertson and Cynthia Duff might be depressingly familiar to you. The ownership of the house was changed to tenants in common, and each of them transferred their half of the house to a separate trust. So there was the Mr M trust and the Mrs M trust. The trusts were set up such that Mr M and 2 financial advisers were the trustees of the Mr M trust; Mrs M and the 2 financial advisers were the trustees of the Mrs M trust. The trust deed gave the settlors the right to add or remove trustees during their lives. When I started to look at this, I felt there were 3 stages to resolve this: 1. Change the trustees to a more sensible arrangement. 2. Update the land registry with the correct trustees. 3. Decide whether to end the trusts. I knew the first 2 steps were going to need a solicitor, who my parents-in-law found. However, the first 2 stages have now been resolved. So, they're now looking at the final stage - deciding whether to end the trusts. It's clear their current solicitor isn't going to be right for them for this part. I think the disadvantages to leaving the trusts in place are: - If either of them need care in the future, I don't think the trusts will make any difference in the local authority's means assessment. - The property is likely unmortgageable if they should need any kind of equity release in the future, for example to pay for care. - Neither trust has been registered with HMRC due to the original solicitors ceasing trading. There might therefore be a tax charge/penalty charge, and an obligation to file periodic tax returns for the trusts. Their preference is to wind up the trusts, but are there any pros to leaving them in place? And are there any cons I haven't thought of already? Knowing that "should" is a dirty word in financial advice, I'm trying to find out whether ending the trusts might have any drawbacks or tax liability. My understanding is that they each transferred their share of the property to the trust when the house was valued at £X. If the trusts are ended, they'll receive the property back at a value of £Y. My questions are: - Is there any tax liability, based on the difference in property value between £X and £Y? - Could they be entitled to any tax reliefs based on their circumstances? - Are there any other drawbacks you can think of that we might not have considered? I know you can only give general information and guidance, but I couldn't work out an answer to this myself. I couldn't even work out which type of professional they should speak to - a solicitor, accountant or financial adviser. I'd be really grateful if you could point us in the direction to get some personalised help. Many thanks, Mathew 33:55  Question 6 Hi Pete, Roger, As a long-time listener and viewer of your channel, I appreciate your insights on keeping costs low, investing in global funds, ensuring tax efficiency, and the benefits of long-term investing. My wife and I have recently become a grand-aunt and grand-uncle. Rather than giving the usual presents, we'd like to do something more practical by investing regularly (£100/month) for our grandniece—after all, there's no better time to start long-term investing than from birth. Likewise, we're comfortable investing 100% in equities, given the long time horizon. On the surface, I suspect you'd recommend a Junior SIPP or a Junior ISA. However, the challenge is that she (and her parents) are French citizens, living in France and paying taxes there. While I appreciate that you focus on UK matters, are you able to provide any pointers on how we could invest in a low-cost global fund for her under these circumstances? Many thanks for your time and any guidance you can offer. John

A Haunted Hotel and a Horrible History

In this special bonus episode, we're taking a break from our usual recap format and diving into something a little different—and very local. Join Amy, AP, and Megan as we explore some of Minnesota's most haunted hotspots, packed with gangster lore, underground speakeasies, and a few spirits (of the ghostly kind).

Part 2 of our Practical Magic Two-ferThis week we are finishing up our discussion of The Dead Files “Shop of Horrors” (Season 13 Episode 5) which aired August 21, 2021. Episode 144 was the first half, this is the second.We talked about other things too like walking through spider webs, intention vs perception, and flirting with a ghost.This episode was split into two because we talked for almost two hours about this case. The reason being that we also covered another show the same clients were on called “A Haunting” so basically, we're recapping two shows at once! This is part two.

Do you make up words and then stick to them when challenged? We sure do! This week we are discussing The Dead Files “A Widow's Revenge” (Season 8 Episode 4) which aired May 27, 2017.  This week we relearn what it feels like to really like one of the people in the episode, then find out they might not be so great.

And he hates those curtains. We talked about how to get your potassium, some ideas for making versatile chicken dishes, and asked the question, can ghosts be narcissistic? So, grab your Thesaurasus, and join us where… The Activity Continues. Content Warning: In this episode we mention Child death in history (likely SIDS), and really horrible treatment of enslaved people.

This week we sat down with Beverly McChesney, Universal Channeler, Reiki Master, and psychic. She came to us through Spirit Mechanix and we've been so looking forward to speaking with her. We talked about so many fun things: Healing, gratitude, animal communication, and past lives. She also shares a manifestation secret! She also talked about how she knew she had abilities (poor Tammy), her time at a horse farm, and her husband the Dragon Meister! So, grab a chili dog, and join us where… The Activity Continues. Note: AP was unable to join us for this one. Content Warning: In this episode we mention pregnancy, miscarriage and abortion briefly. Also deaths of family pets (old age, and hit by vehicle) so trigger warning for those who need it. We didn't even swear much because we didn't tell Beverly head of time that she could.

This week we are discussing The Dead Files “The Uninvited” (Season 9 Episode 6) which aired March 10, 2018. We also talked about heart issues, Steve's empathy, and confusing storytelling.Also, the word of the day is Dubious, and we got the appendix part wrong! (It's on the right side.) So, grab your Dream Catcher, and join us where… The Activity Continues.And may every sip of coffee taste as good as the first sip of the day.  Content Warning: We didn't find anything we thought deserved a content warning, other than some colorful language. The Activity Continues is a paranormal podcast where soul friends, Amy, Megan, and AP chat about true crime, ghost stories, haunts, dreams, and other paranormal stuff including the TV show, The Dead Files. Our recaps are full of reoccurring jokes about reoccurring tropes. We also occasionally do interviews with people from the paranormal world, with the goal of learning from others. We think you'll really benefit from the things these people have to say. Sometimes we get a little scientific. We enjoy trying to come up with possible explanations for some of the things that the clients experience. But this by no means indicates that we do not believe the clients or are invalidating their experiences. We do believe. This episode was recorded on January 13, 2025, and released on February 13, 2025. Chapter Markers00:00:00 Intro00:00:39 Hello!00:01:45 Content Warning & Housekeeping00:02:51 Overview00:05:04 Segment One – The Set Up00:33:33 Segment Two – Diggin' Tru00:54:19 Segment Three – The Reveal001:10:44 Next week01:12:05 Outro Episode links:The City of Slaughter: https://cityofslaughtersky.org/Articles from the trialhttps://www.newspapers.com/article/the-courier-journal-will-morrison-guilty/9128009/https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-courier-journal-self-defense-will-mo/9128354/Heart Disease and Family History: https://www.heartfoundation.org.au/your-heart/family-history-and-heart-disease Uterine Fibroids: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2214911223000966Coronary Thrombosis: https://www.healthline.com/health/coronary-artery-disease/coronary-thrombosisThe Dead Files Official Podcast: https://pod.link/1642377102 Disclaimer:This podcast is in no way affiliated with Warner Brothers, HBOMax, the Travel Channel, Painless TV, or the TV show The Dead Files or any of its cast or crew.

This week we are discussing The Dead Files “Ghosts of Deadwood” (Season 3 Episode 11) which aired January 10, 2014. We also talked about the Wild West, belief systems, pickled eggs, and what happens when you swing a hammer. So, grab your duster and join us where… The Activity Continues. And remember, never sit with your back to the door. Audio Note: Apologies for the plosives. We were using different mics and forgot to use pop filters. Tried to fix it in post, but I couldn't catch them all. Content Warning: In this episode we mention suicide, death by hanging, so trigger warning for those who need it. Also, while Amy and Steve's swears are bleeped on TV, ours are not. The Activity Continues is a paranormal podcast where soul friends, Amy, Megan, and AP chat about true crime, ghost stories, haunts, dreams, and other paranormal stuff including the TV show, The Dead Files.
