IN THIS EPISODE: It's Thriller Thursday – and this week I'm bringing you three tales of fiction. I'll share a short story that has been described as "one of the most famous and frequently anthologized stories in American literature" – it's “An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge” by the legendary Ambrose Bierce, from 1890. I have a classic creepypasta from 2016 that many people mistakenly believe is a true story because it is so well written. It's “The Strange Case of Edmonson Kentucky” by Joe Terrell. But first, it's a short story of fiction as told by one of the hardest-working writers I know, as she is always posting new stories on Facebook: Christina Skelton. It's a story from April 2020 titled simply, “The Ghost Bus”.YOUTUBE TIME STAMPS…00:00.00.000 = Introduction/Show Open00:02:08.463 = “The Ghost Bus” by Christina Skelton00:12:56.446 = “An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge” by Ambrose Bierce00:37:19.785 = “The Strange Case of Edmonson, Kentucky” by Joe TerrellSOURCES AND REFERENCES FROM THE EPISODE…“An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge” by Ambrose Bierce: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/uu4acekx“The Ghost Bus” by Christina Skelton: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/phupb8p4“The Strange Case of Edmonson, Kentucky” by Joe Terrell: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/sdtru243Weird Darkness theme by Alibi Music Library. = = = = =(Over time links seen above may become invalid, disappear, or have different content.

If you live in parts of the South Hills or the East End, getting around by bus or on the T might be pretty easy for you. But that's not true for big portions of our city and county. Today we're with the grassroots advocacy group Pittsburghers for Public Transit to talk about our regional provider, Pittsburgh Regional Transit, including what PPT loves, what data shows isn't working, and the group's vision for what public transit could be here in the Burgh. Thanks to our guest, PPT's executive director, Laura Chu Wiens, and check out their upcoming event, Transit Worker Appreciation Day on Monday, March 18.

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING. The top of the episode story involves lore surrounding the old Athens Asylum, once found in Athens, Ohio. The asylum was absorbed by Ohio University after it closed down, and some wonder if the spirits that allegedly once haunted the asylum now haunt the campus. Then a shorter story set in Barbados. We'll explore the mystery of the old Chase Vault. Did a bunch of coffins move around on their own, not once but several times, in the early 19th century? The back half of the show provides some head scratchers! The first tale would seem to be about an entity that continually shows up in a young mans that he thinks he has a connection to but then, at the end, we learn an additional detail that makes him wonder otherwise. The final tale has Dan and Lynze questioning multi-verse. Was there a glitch in the matrix one late night, last fall? You decide.HAUNTED HALLOWEEN SHOW!

SCARED TO DEATH IS EXPLICIT IN EVERY WAY. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHILE LISTENING.The first of Dan's stories this week is the more documented of the two. Dan will be taking everyone to the late 1930s, and to the Greater London area of England, to examine the haunting of Alma Fielding. In 1938, Alma Fielding, a 34-year-old housewife in Thornton Heath, a southern suburb of London, went to the press complaining of a poltergeist having invaded her home. Many, many people witnessed intense paranormal activity centered around Alma. The second story is the tale of a 19th century South Carolina woman who seems to have suffered an incredibly tragic death when she was accidentally buried alive. Does the ghost of Julia Legare still haunt her family's tomb on Edisto Island, South Carolina? Lynze's portion of the show is made up of four small stories: a skin walker, a ghost, a self driving school bus and the woman in the mirror! Enjoy!

Episode 226: Catching the Ghost Bus! In this episode, Dan and Josh are joined by DryBar comedian Luke Thayer. Luke has a weekly show at the Comedy Cellar in New York City, and headlines at venues all over the country. Luke tells Dan and Josh the story of the time he had to venture down to the great state of Texas and host an ‘Oscars for Real Estate People'. He also tells a bonus story about making a Rumplestiltskin deal with a time-keeping showrunner who ends up sending him on his way without a ride home. Thankfully there was a ghost bus to pick him up! You don't want to miss this episode. Luke tells us that the "bumbing of bombing" correlates to where you are in your comedy career - if you know yourself, and you've been in the business long enough to have confidence in your material, it hits differently than at the beginning. Learn about what you can control in a gig, and what you can't - it's the. Art. of. Bombing! Plus more! Please rate and review.

FINAL EPISODE IN BUS GHOST , GHOST BUS
On November 14, 1995, a dark and possibly stormy night, a young man boarded the last bus heading to Beijing's Fragrant Hills in Haidian District. If the stories are true, it was a bus ride he would never forget. This super-short episode of the China Untold podcast is a relatively well-known Beijing ghost story, often called ‘the last bus to Fragrant Hills.' There are many variations of this story, but I have chosen to stick with the most common incarnation to keep this episode concise.
In this week's episode, the guys and gal discuss Super Nintendo World's opening, Falcon and the Winter Soldier, real Hip-Hop, and a possible Ghost Bus. Enrique and the guys enter the Kumite to discuss the movie “Bloodsport.” Follow us on Instagram and Twitter: twitter.com/gungfusuperbros instagram.com/gungfusuperbrospod --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

In the fifth episode of our 13 Nights of Frights we explore an urban legend of Beijing that warns against taking the last bus of the night. Join us as we discuss this popular urban legend and find out just why the next bus stop may just be your final destination. Listener discretion is advised.
We're back, but definitely not in Neptune. As Veronica battles through the Black Lodge, we get buckets of exposition and forward plot movement. Meanwhile, Keith guest stars on his own show and Wallace and Logan get some quality time. We're very here for Wallace in best friend mode!
This week we talk about two urban legends featuring a ghost bus. The Beijing ghost bus, also known as the bus to fragrant hill and the Mexico ghost bus heading to Toluca from Ixtapan de la sal. We also talk about the Bell Witch, who turned out to be more of a ghost than a witch after all. Enjoy!_______Kate is a psychology graduate, while Abbie is a film scholar, specialising in Horror.

This week we're joined by Dr. Kari Watkins, Associate Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Georgia Tech and co-founder and "Chief Motivator" of OneBusAway, an open source platform for real time transit info. Kari talks about her research into the role of technology in the evolving transit experience, possible "dangerous futures ahead" - such as zero-passenger vehicles - and the "best future" of high capacity transit on dedicated right of way, fed by robust bike and sidewalk networks and TNCs for low density areas, all supported by timely information and payment - mobility as a service. Also check out Rail~Volution for information about this year's conference starting Sunday.

Segment 1- Mindie Kinsale – County Cork – off the coast of southern Ireland Kinsale isn’t a thin place… sometimes you need to relax and rejuvenate and have fun. Most lovers of thin places and liminal spaces also love history and stories of local people – heroes, villains – and Kinsale is very rich in history that impacted the evolvement of society in the western world with the famous “Battle of Kinsale.” Kinsale has two historic forts, Charles and James Forts. And so many other bits of interesting history. Kinsale is of my favorite towns for relaxing. I love the vibe. The town is clean, vibrant It’s an art and foodie town. The people are friendly. It’s totally walkable and everywhere you look is color and light. When you go to Kinsale a good way to get your bearings is to go on a tour guided by Don or Barry – on Don and Barry’s Historic Strolls. I was lucky enough to get an interview with Barry when I was in Kinsale recently. segment 2 – guest interview Barry Moloney – Don and Barry’s Kinsale Historic Stroll Don and Barry’s Historic Stroll in Kinsale offers a walking tour full of history and interesting information about this seaside town in County Cork. SEGMENT 3– Kinsale ghost tour There are a few consistently operated ghost tours in Ireland. Being the owner of a ghost tour company here in the states, I always like to see what other companies and groups do when crafting and putting on a ghost tour. I’ve been on the ghost tour in Belfast and the Ghost Bus in Dublin. Both were great experiences through very different. Kinsale has an interesting ghost tour. The term Ghost tour is so subjective. It can have multiple definitions in people’s minds. People can perceive ghost tours as anything from paranormal investigations to history walks to people dressed in character leading a theatrical performance. Kinsale ghost tour is that kind of ghost tour – a performance and it’s quite comedic. Two actors, Brian O’Neill and Don Herlihy dress in character and lead their group of guests around the historic Kinsale town center and recount stories of ghosts and historical figures in way that keeps the guests’ attention and keeps guests laughing. This performance is so well done. And there are some elements of surprise. The tour starts at Kinsale’s oldest tavern - the Tap Tavern, which has been owned by Brian O’Neill’s family since 1886. His mother, Mary O’Neill still owns it today and she and Brian manage the operations. Mary is often there when guests gather for the ghost tour. I had the pleasure of meeting her while I waited to speak to Brian. The tour takes about 90 minutes. It covers all the interesting parts of the town and it is very entertaining. An evening well spent. Don’t miss it if you’re in Kinsale. Kinsale Ghost Tours http://kinsaleperformanceevents.com/hentertainment/ghost-tout/ SEGMENT 4 – Ardmore in County Waterford Ard Mohr means Great Height Ardmore: Great Height – blog post by Mindie Burgoyne A seaside resort and fishing village. It’s near Youghal in the south of Ireland – not too far from Kinsale or Cork City. Ardmore is a thin place. I guess I sense the thinness of a place on the approach. Maybe there’s something about the round tower, maybe something about the old ruins. But as you climb the hill to the old monastic ruins you get a jolt of something when the round tower comes into view. It’s a seaside town with a beautiful beach and sheltered bay. It’s a resort town for tourists with stunning views of the bay and a cliff walk above the town. There are also ecclesiastical ruins in Ardmore are associated with St. Declan, a 5th-century saint who established this monastic community here on a hill at Ardmore… in fact the name Ard Mor – means “Great Height.” The devotional stops in Ardmore are traveled by pilgrims and associated with St. Declan. They include the ecclesiastical ruins up on the hill, a holy well, and a large stone on the beach. According to one of the Lives written about him, St. Declan was born in this region and later went to Rome and became a bishop. He left Rome and returned to County Waterford - - to Ardmore with plans to build a monastery. However, he left without his bell. A bishop’s bell was similar to his crozier. A symbol of his authority. But because Declan was so special and so blessed, the angels set his bell afloat on a stone that traveled all the way across the sea to Ardmore. It still sits on the beach. It’s a large stone sitting atop two smaller ones and the stone is said to have curative powers for those who crawl under it. That would be a task. But these old legends were begun in a different and told to people who have a different perspective. Thinking patterns were very abstract. The meaning of the story was rooted in the understanding that an object could connect people in this world to the powers and graces of the eternal world. Maybe that connection brought healing. Maybe it brought wisdom. But being close to these sacred monuments elevates our awareness and spiritual vibration. I’ve stood by that stone and thought about the stories and all the pilgrims who have stood in the same place. I’ve even found one small stone in the shape of a heart on that rocky beach around St. Declan’s stone that I brought home with me. Holding it in my hand 3000 miles away from Ardmore can take me back there in my mind. There is value in these thin places. From the stone on the beach, the pilgrims travel up the main road where there is access to a path that turns into a gorgeous cliff walk. On the path is St. Declan’s Holy well. It is a beautiful spot. The well has clean water (also said to have curative powers) and a little shrine has been built around it with stone. It has an opening for the well and then three stone crosses atop. Actually, that’s only two now. The crosses were said to represent Calvary. One cross on the left for the unrepentant thief, a high cross in the middle to represent Jesus and a cross on the right to represent the repentant thief. Sadly, the cross representing the unrepentant thief has vanished. The locals say it was stolen. … which is ironic. Farther past the well is a pathway that winds along the cliffs with spectacular views of the bay and ocean. Then atop the hill behind the village are the remains of an old monastery. The buildings date back to the eighth century and were placed atop the site where Declan had his monastery in the 5th century. Those building – likely made of wood are long gone. The oldest of the ruins is St. Declan’s oratory which is said to have been erected overtop the remains of the saint. There is also a 12th century round tower which is in beautiful shape. It’s about 100 feet high, which is typical for round towers. Human remains were found facing east below the Ardmore’s round tower, which indicates that it was built over graves in a graveyard. There’s a sorrowful tale associated with the round tower. It was a refuge for Irish being pursued by English forces. About 20 of them were holed up in the tower on various floors. They surrendered and were all hanged. There’s also a roofless 13th-century church ruin with a giant 8th century carving from an earlier church attached to the gable wall. The carving nearly spans the width of the gable wall and the designs are similar to what you see on high crosses. There’s an image of Adam and Eve, Gift of the Magi and of the Judgement of Solomon. These were likely used for teaching the local people about the faith. I stood in front of the Gable wall and pointed out the carving to my tour group and they like most visitors, thought the carvings were beautiful. But when I told the story of the Judgement of Solomon to the group in front of the carving, there was a moment of transformation. I said … "You remember the story. Two women claim to be mother to the same baby and they go to King Solomon to get him to resolve the matter. King Solomon said, since you two can’t agree, I will cut the baby in half and give each of you a share. He called for his swordsman to do the deed and one of the women cried out, 'No. Don’t. The child is not mine.' And pointing to the other woman said, 'She is the real mother.' Solomon in his wisdom knew that this woman who was speaking had to be the baby’s rightful mother because only a mother’s love would be so unselfish as to sacrifice her own her own happiness and endure almost unbearable sorrow in order to save her child. So, Solomon made his judgment and gave the child to the woman who cried out. At the end of the story, the etched images in the gable wall seemed to have so much more depth, meaning. There’s something about marrying the spoken word of a sacred story to a physical image that represents the story. Something greater than the sum of those two elements grows. It becomes an experience. One of the guests said she imagined the artist, what he was thinking as he carved those images so long ago - - and she wondered if he ever imagined people would be admiring his work ten centuries after he carved it. It was such a powerful moment for all of us. Inside the church ruins in a little niche is a very well-preserved ogham stone. This is a tall stone with old Irish writing that consists of etch marks along the sides. These were often personal inscriptions… the name of the person etching the stone – a mark of memory to leave behind. Ardmore may not be one of the top sights that pilgrims seek out, but it’s every bit as powerful as the other sacred sites. Thank you for listening to the Thin Places Travel Podcast.

EPISODE 84: GHOST BUS OF PHILADELPHIA The urban legends of Philadelphia tell of a ghost bus that roams the city with no destination. It is drawn to sadness, desperation and offers you a ride when you are lost in despair. Some never get off! Make sure to bring exact fare: your tears. Horror host T. Fox Dunham may have seen this bus while walking the streets of Philly after enduring oral surgery as part of his long battle with cancer. He tells the story on episode 84 of What Are You Afraid Of? Horror & Paranormal Show: The Ghost Bus of Philadelphia. Also Phil Thomas and T. Fox Dunham hang out, talk about classic horror movies and how to deal with a demonic haunting. Renowned psychic and spiritual teacher Angela Thomas returns for part two of her popular interview as part of the show’s Psychic Spring segment, and she shares a scary tale of an encounter with a possessed person. So, if you see a bus with no destination and a ghostly driver, don’t get on! Of course, it may be your only escape.
