Some hauntings whisper. Others walk straight through your living room in the middle of the night. But the one in this episode… speaks. It starts with footsteps no one can explain — heavy, deliberate, pacing outside a closed bathroom door when only two people were home. Footsteps that sounded exactly like her… even though she was on the opposite side of the house. But the real shock comes hours later, when a simple bedtime routine with a Google Home device derails into something far stranger. A familiar command. A familiar response. Then suddenly… a voice that doesn't belong to any programmed setting. A tone that feels warmer, older, almost personal. And a message no algorithm should know. Was it a glitch? A prank? Or the unmistakable attempt of someone — or something — trying to reach across the divide? #ghoststory #paranormalactivity #hauntedtech #googlehomeghost #realghoststoriesonline #hauntedhouse #supernaturalencounter #ghostvoice #smartdeviceglitch #paranormalstories #ghostencounter #creepyfootsteps Love real ghost stories?

Some houses are dark even in daylight. For Jennifer, her childhood home wasn't just old — it was alive. Built over a century ago in Pennsylvania, the family home carried generations of tragedy, loss, and suffering. Jennifer remembers the nights filled with unseen footsteps climbing the stairs, the paralysis that gripped her as strange sounds echoed in her room, and the constant dread of being alone after dark. She grew up believing maybe it was all in her head. Until her brother proved it wasn't. Years later, when the house sat empty and abandoned, he broke in to watch TV — just for a bit of quiet. Then a woman's voice called from upstairs: “John, come upstairs… come to your room.” The problem? He didn't have a room there anymore. Now, years later, Jennifer still wonders what lived in those walls. Was it tied to her family's generations of pain? Or had something darker simply made the place home? #RealGhostStoriesOnline #HauntedHouse #TrueHaunting #ParanormalExperience #GhostStory #FamilyHaunting #AbandonedHome #HauntedPennsylvania #DarkEnergy #SupernaturalEncounter #RealGhostStory #GhostlyEncounters Love real ghost stories?

Caller Brandy from Austin, Texas, delivers a chilling story that mixes grief, music, and the unexplained. After moving from California and working exhausting overnight shifts, she tried to grab sleep during the day. But her rest was broken by phantom footsteps racing across laminate floors. Each time she called out — silence. Each time she checked, only her sleeping dog. Then, days after Tom Petty's death, her mom's phone suddenly started blasting one of his songs — no caller, no alert, no reason. The timing was uncanny, especially since Brandy admits she took Petty's death extremely hard, as though she'd lost someone she truly knew. The crew unpacks this story with a mix of empathy and fascination: how artists can shape our lives so profoundly that their passing feels personal, why music often feels like a bridge between the living and the dead, and whether this was a coincidence or a ghostly farewell. From Merle Haggard to Suzanne Somers, they tie in their own moments of pop culture grief and the paranormal echoes it can leave behind. This is a segment that hits both heart and spine — a ghost story, yes, but also a meditation on how loss lingers.

It's Boyle's final night at his Sydney place.
A message from Pastor Matt!
“amused myself by visiting Lhassa...looked in at Mecca” [FINA] The Great Hiatus, as the interval between "The Final Problem" and "The Empty House" is known, has inspired a great deal of speculation and interpretation, thanks to Sherlock Holmes's brief and tantalizing account of his time away. Edgar Smith took it on in his famous essay (as referenced in Episode 334), but Don Pollock took aim at the fawning acceptance in his own analysis in a 1975 issue of The Baker Street Journal.

In this deeply personal episode, I talk about launching my second bird into the world… my 18-year-old daughter, Marley. It was an emotional goodbye for the both of us that triggered all sorts of thoughts and feelings as a mom. Pride. Grief. Gratitude. And regret…for all the things I wish I'd done over the years before she left.In this episode, I open up about the challenges I'm encountering as I learn to raise adult children as a single mom (yes, I said it), the silent ache of letting go, and the surprising ways I'm healing in the process. Hint…one of the ways may or may not be a HUGE surprise party for this daughter of mine who *said* she never wanted to be celebrated (but deep down that's all she craved).From co-parenting and sacrifice, to throwing that goodbye surprise party of a lifetime, I'm slowly learning to let my kids become who they are, and I'm sharing it all. This isn't just a life update. It's a love letter to motherhood, growth, and choosing to celebrate even through the heartbreak.PS.

“I cannot emphasize how good it feels to, first of all, have some great circulation, AND not need a heating pad on my uterus all the time, which apparently just sucked in heat.
