Bomb cyclone over North Carolina… Ambience. This week's episode covers the major coastal storm as heard from the coastal plains Carolina (i.e., my twin's house). Her recording (thank you!) captured wind, snow, and birds sheltering nearby. I also filled out the recording with added notes and sounds (I'm really into ambience with non-music motifs).And as everyone who has followed this podcast should know, I am a fan of fans. (We're starting with fans?) One distant summer night in Myrtle Beach, I sat bolt upright fast enough to catch the sound of an explosion in its negative phase. Light-headed and feeling each beat of my heart pulsating through my eyes and ears, my brain trying to re-engage consciousness.  I looked around in the dark. Ghostly echoes of thunder washed over me. The wind picked up and lashed raindrops into the window. A flash of light ignited the room, and I was staring into the pale visage of a little girl's face, wide-eyed.I screamed.This was the thunderstorm that ruined me for thunderstorms. I experienced the eye of Hurricane Hugo (Kershaw County, not Charleston), and my memories aren't as vivid of that hurricane as they are of that brief, terrifying Myrtle storm. I can remember everything from the moment I was ripped from my dreams to my father plugging in a large box fan next to my bed.After recovering from the face-flashing jumpscare, it was my twin staring at me—we summoned the courage to wander down the hall of the efficiency motel room to where my parents slept. We ripped them out of their sleep and beckoned them to look out the windows. The sheer unsettlement of the night sky—Do something.A blinding flash enveloped us in white. And just before the collection of sounds that make up thunder hit my ear, I swear I heard a sizzle rip by first. Sparks fell across the street from a power line. I backed away from the windows, reeling—the room's oven flashed and sparked with small tendrils of electricity.I shouted, “The oven's on fire,” because I had no idea how to describe what I was seeing.“The oven is not on fire,” my mother said, furious. And I can understand why; if she were writing this podcast description about the experience, it would be: waking to children screaming, a massive white light filling the room, a shattering thunderclap, and her son shouting “fire!”“Sometimes lightning can sneak in through the wires,” my father explained after sorting out what I had seen. And I was like, “Wait—it can get inside?!” urgently gesticulating toward the windows and the flashing forks of electric death.This is why I sleep with noise at night—preferably rushing wind, whether electric or naturally created. To drown out the possibility of hearing thunder.Essentially, all of what I have written so far can be boiled down to my trying to conjure a title for this week's episode. I wanted to offer howling winds as anxiety relief. And my beloved wife interjected that I should offer calm winds for anxiety, as people might not feel calmed by rushing wind. And I was like, “CALM WINDS DON'T CALM ME!”The argument eventually ended with accusations that I never do the dishes. Happy Valentine's Day! (Oh no wait that's next week)

De próbáljuk meg tovább kutatni. Ki tudja, mit találhatunk még?"En: László smiles, nodding almost imperceptibly: "Maybe you're right. But let's keep searching. Who knows what else we might find?"Hu: A hideg ellenszeletől nem zavartatva eltökélten térnek vissza a faluba.En: Unaffected by the cold headwind, they return to the village with determination.Hu: A titok szépsége összekötötte őket.En: The beauty of the mystery has bonded them.Hu: A Balaton varázsa ezután már nem csak mendemonda számukra, hanem egy közösen megélt élmény is.En: The magic of Balaton is now not just a rumor for them, but also a shared experience.Hu: Ágnes bátrabb lett, László pedig talán egy kicsit nyitottabb a csodákra.En: Ágnes has become braver, and László perhaps a bit more open to wonders.Hu: És ez mindkettőjük számára gazdagabbá tette a világot.En: And this has enriched the world for both of them.

When Jonathan Dickinson washed ashore in Florida in the late 1600s, history books told us to expect brutality, suffering… and cannibals.But what if that's not what actually happened?In this episode of This Is Legends of Yesterday, we unravel the strange contradictions surrounding Dickinson's shipwreck and his encounters with Florida's Indigenous people—who, according to his own account, treated him not as prey, but as a human being. So where did the cannibal legend come from? And why did this story become the version that survived?Join us as we question colonial narratives, separate fear from fact, and explore the uncomfortable possibility that history may have gotten this one very, very wrong.Ghostly? Not this time.Unsettling? Absolutely.True? You'll have to listen to find out.This episode of This Is Legends of Yesterday includes discussion of the following sensitive topics:-Slavery and enslavement-Racism and colonial violence-Dehumanization of Indigenous peoples-Cannibalism (historical claims and myths)-Descriptions of insects and arachnidsThese topics are discussed in a historical and educational context, but may be distressing or uncomfortable for some listeners.

Shepherdstown, West Virginia, may be small, but its history runs deep — and dark. Founded in 1762 along the Potomac River, it's one of the oldest towns in the state. On the surface, it's full of charm — brick sidewalks, historic homes, and the quiet hum of university life. But behind the beauty lies centuries of turmoil. Just three miles away, the Battle of Antietam became one of the bloodiest days in American history. When it ended, the wounded poured in by the thousands, turning every home, church, and business into a field hospital. Locals say the town was never the same — it seems that the ground itself remembers. Ghostly figures are seen near the riverbanks, whispers echo from the churchyards, and even Shepherd University has its share of unexplained encounters. Janet Hughes, owner of Shepherdstown Mystery Walks, knows these stories better than anyone. Through her tours, she reveals the layers of tragedy, resilience, and lingering energy that make Shepherdstown one of the most haunted towns in West Virginia. Is it history holding on—or something that refuses to let go? This is Part Two of our conversation.

Some stories don't arrive all at once. They surface slowly, across years, places, and moments that don't seem connected—until suddenly, they are. In this episode, one listener takes us through a lifetime marked by strange interruptions in the ordinary: nights where sleep refused to come until something unexplained intervened, roads and bridges that felt wrong long before anything actually happened, and workplaces where unseen presences seemed far too invested in how things were done. What makes this story unsettling isn't just the encounters themselves—it's how casually they slipped into everyday life, as if whatever was there never meant to frighten… just to be noticed. Helpful? Maybe. Judgmental? Possibly. Human? That's up for debate. This is a story about patterns, persistence, and the uneasy feeling that some forces don't fade with time—they adapt. And sometimes, the most unsettling encounters aren't dramatic at all. They're quiet. Routine. And very particular about how things should be. #RealGhostStories #TrueParanormal #HauntedLives #UnexplainedEncounters #ListenerStories #ParanormalPodcast #TrueGhostStory #EverydayHauntings #CreepyButTrue #GhostlyExperiences Love real ghost stories?

Hey there friends and weirdos! This week we take a trip up north to learn about some legendary Canadian ghosts. Does the angry spirit of a beheaded nun roam the streets of Miramichi looking for her severed head? Does the spectral form of a handsome fancy boy stalk the Dungarvon River in New Brunswick, "whooping" loud as hell in a ghostly rage? We discuss all this and much more!

From a ghost who returned a missing child only to reveal he'd been dead for years, to a bride whose body was found hidden in a chest fifty years after she vanished, these true Christmas hauntings prove the holidays have a dark side.IN THIS EPISODE: I'll share a few ghost stories that all center around the Christmas season. (True Tales of Christmas Ghosts) *** We'll look at a haunting in Rhode Island, where people claim to see a mysterious light every year at Christmas – and many believe it to be a ghost ship with a dark history. (The Christmas Light of Block Island) *** Even without ghosts, you can still have some terrible things take place at Christmas time – more than you might realize. You'll never hear the word “Christmas” the same way again after hearing some of what happened in history during the Christmas season! (Horrible Happenings at the Holidays) *** What is for many their favorite paranormal Christmas movie of all time was, in fact, a bust at the box office. It wasn't about a ghost though – it was about a desperate man, and an angel without any wings.

In “The Imposter”, a woman, despite having no theatrical background, is suddenly inspired to write a full-length play — with the ghostly help of a long-dead actor. When the play turns out to be a hit, she tries to take all the credit for it. But the real author's spirit isn't having it and demands that her name be removed from the marquee.  | #RetroRadio EP0571CHAPTERS & TIME STAMPS (All Times Approximate)…00:00:00.000 = Show Open00:01:30.028 = CBS Radio Mystery Theater, “The Imposter” (March 22, 1977) ***WD00:45:34.027 = Eleventh Hour, “Will” (1941-1946) ***WD01:14:24.935 = Escape, “Red Wine” (February 26, 1949)01:43:51.535 = Everyman's Theater, “This Precious Freedom” (October 04, 1940) ***WD02:11:07.323 = Murder By Experts, “Murder By Prescription” (July 11, 1949)02:40:34.581 = Exploring Tomorrow, “The Last Doctor” (February 19, 1958)02:59:01.191 = Faces in The Window, “Lightning Rod Man” (January 17, 1953) ***WD (LQ)03:22:41.516 = Dark Fantasy, “Debt From The Past” (January 16, 1942)03:46:52.517 = Fear on 4, “The Chimes of Midnight” (October 02, 1997) ***WD04:14:52.809 = 5 Minute Mysteries, “Broken Window” (1947-1950)04:19:55.490 = Tales From The Tomb, “Don't Drink With Strangers” (1960s)04:23:35.238 = BBC Ghosts From The Past, “The Boat Hook” (April 15, 1992)05:07:02.739 = Show Close(ADU) = Air Date Unknown(LQ) = Low Quality***WD = Remastered, edited, or cleaned up by Weird Darkness to make the episode more listenable.

Why does Christmas bring out the ghosts? This hour, we dig into the world of Charles Dickens and Mark Twain, and the Victorian obsession with spiritualism that shaped so many holiday tales.

In this episode of Lurk, we travel to the historic—and notoriously haunted—Crescent Hotel in Eureka Springs, Arkansas. Perched high in the Ozark Mountains, this grand Victorian structure has been many things over the past century: a luxury resort, an elite girls' school, and most infamously, a fraudulent cancer hospital run by the charismatic con man Norman Baker. Its long and troubled history has left behind more than just stories—it's said to be one of the most haunted hotels in America.We dive into the hotel's tragic past, exploring the legends and documented history that shaped its reputation. You'll hear about:Michael, the Irish stonemason who fell to his death during construction and still roams Room 218.The spirit of a young woman in white, believed to have been a student during the hotel's boarding school days.Ghostly nurses, mysterious figures in mirrors, and unexplained footsteps echoing through the old hospital wings.The chilling legacy of Dr. Norman Baker, whose “hospital” led to countless deaths—and whose former morgue remains a hotspot of strange activity.Through eyewitness accounts, historical details, and the hotel's most unsettling paranormal encounters, we uncover why the Crescent continues to draw ghost hunters, historians, and the curious from all over the world.If you've ever wondered what lingers in the halls of the Crescent Hotel after the sun sets over the Ozarks, this is an episode you won't want to miss.Subscribe & Follow:Don't miss future episodes of Lurk!

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! Once the height of elegance and power, Buffalo's Statler City Hotel was built to host the living—but it seems the dead refused to check out. Grand ballrooms now sit in silence. Chandeliers sway in still air. Security guards report footsteps echoing down empty hallways, voices drifting through rooms that haven't seen guests in decades. Some claim to see figures dressed in 1920s finery, appearing just long enough to vanish again. In this chilling episode of The Grave Talks, we step inside one of the most haunted landmarks in New York to explore the thin veil between history and the supernatural. Guest Conor Hawkins takes us beyond the locked doors, revealing untold stories of the Statler's past—its triumphs, its tragedies, and the mysterious energy that refuses to fade. Why do certain places hold on to their guests long after death? What makes the Statler's walls hum with life when no one is there? History never truly leaves. And inside the Statler City Hotel… neither do they. #HauntedHotel #StatlerCity #TrueGhostStory #HauntedBuffalo #ParanormalPodcast #GhostStories #RealHaunting #HauntedPlaces #TheGraveTalks #CreepyEncounters  Love real ghost stories?

A family's day at Sydney's Luna Park ended in flames when a Ghost Train fire killed seven people—including six children—but the last photograph taken before the tragedy has sparked theories of something far more sinister than an accident.IN THIS EPISODE: Some of the most unsettling of urban legends can take place in some of the happiest places on earth. Ghostly children swinging in a playground, phantom-like warriors coming out at night in beautiful Hawaii, but there's one I never heard of until just this morning that I had to look up… it has to do with a boy, a theme park, and a man with horns, (Damien and the Horned Man) *** In 1944 Dorothy Forstein came home from shopping and was attacked by an intruder, beat within an inch of her life. Nothing was stolen, no fingerprints left, no clue as to how the person entered the house to begin with. Dorothy recovered from her injuries… but years later she found her grim fate wasn't done with her. (The Disappearance of Dorothy Forstein) *** SETI, the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence is continually scanning the heavens on the lookout for life elsewhere in the universe. But is it possible that somewhere on another planet out there, those beings are doing the same thing – and could actually be watching us? Scientists say that not only is it possible, but they suspect it could be over 1,000 extraterrestrial space stations are watching our every move! (Are We Being Watched By Alien Space Stations?) *** Eighteen-year-old Ellen Lucas was to be married on October 3rd – but the evening of October 2nd she went out with her fiance, never to be seen alive again. Did a horrible accident destroy the chances of this couple's happy life together? A random act of violence? Or was it something even more sinister? (The Bridgeport Tragedy) *** She seemed the perfect American, even born to a US military doctor, graduating from a prestigious American college, and working tirelessly, doing her part to serve her country as a military analyst. What would cause this seemingly patriotic citizen to become a spy for the enemy?

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC! At the heart of Tuscaloosa, Alabama, stands the Drish House—a towering antebellum mansion said to glow with ghostly fire. When Dr. John R. Drish met a tragic end tumbling down the grand staircase, his widow, Sarah, was left with only memories… and a set of ornate funeral candles she cherished. But when those candles mysteriously went missing during her own funeral, something inside the house reignited—literally. For generations, locals have sworn to see flames flickering in the tower, dancing without smoke, without heat, and without explanation. Some say it's Sarah's spirit searching for her lost candles. Others believe it's the house itself, mourning what was taken. Join us as we uncover the mystery with Matt and Nika McCool, the current keepers of the Drish legacy, and ask: are those spectral fires a sign of lingering grief… or something far more dangerous?

Shepherdstown, West Virginia, may be small, but its history runs deep — and dark. Founded in 1762 along the Potomac River, it's one of the oldest towns in the state. On the surface, it's full of charm — brick sidewalks, historic homes, and the quiet hum of university life. But behind the beauty lies centuries of turmoil. Just three miles away, the Battle of Antietam became one of the bloodiest days in American history. When it ended, the wounded poured in by the thousands, turning every home, church, and business into a field hospital. Locals say the town was never the same — it seems that the ground itself remembers. Ghostly figures are seen near the riverbanks, whispers echo from the churchyards, and even Shepherd University has its share of unexplained encounters. Janet Hughes, owner of Shepherdstown Mystery Walks, knows these stories better than anyone. Through her tours, she reveals the layers of tragedy, resilience, and lingering energy that make Shepherdstown one of the most haunted towns in West Virginia. Is it history holding on—or something that refuses to let go? This is Part Two of our conversation. Get more information about her walking tours, at shepherdstownmysterywalks.com.

Here's what you'll hear in this episode: A closet door that kept opening… and a ghost whispering “get out” A record player spinning in a power-less house Ghostly buyers who vanished mid-showing A photographer who saw someone move — in an empty home The professor who researched ghosts and maybe became one Cold spots, angry basement doors, and haunted flip houses A house no one saw — and buyers who didn't last two months Key Quotes & Takeaways “I was like, get out… and the ghost said, get out.”  “I felt a cold, angry presence — then the door slammed in my face.”  “If you're going to stay, that's fine. Just stop turning the boiler on.”  “The professor just wanted his research archived. Once we did, the heat finally stayed off.”  “That was the only way she could've sold it… someone had to buy it sight unseen.” Leave us a review at http://ratethispodcast.com/hustlehumbly Get your FREE Database Template: http://hustlehumblypodcast.com/starthere Email Templates 101: http://emailtemplates101.com Agent Systems 101: http://agentsystems101.com All Resources: http://hustlehumblypodcast.com Submit your topic ideas and toasts to Team@HustleHumblyPodcast.com Music: Straight A's by Connor Price → https://connorprice.shop/ The Good Life by Summer Kennedy → https://soundcloud.com/summerkennedy/the-good-life Be The One by Matrika → https://uppbeat.io/t/matrika/be-the-one   Rate & Review the Show: Love what you hear?

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! The Brown Grand Theater in Concordia, Kansas, has always been a showstopper — but the most unforgettable performances may come from those you can't see. Built in 1907 by Colonel Napoleon Bonaparte Brown and completed by his son Earl, the theater's century-long history is steeped in legends of spirits who never left their beloved stage. Visitors report the lingering scent of Gertrude's phantom perfume drifting through the aisles, while Earl is said to still “run the show” from the other side. Then there's the mysterious man said to haunt the boiler room and the ghostly little girl in a blue dress who appears when the lights go down. In this episode of The Grave Talks, we speak with theater director Melissa Swenson and paranormal investigator Tonya Merrill about the unexplained events, spectral sightings, and chilling stories that make the Brown Grand Theater a hotspot for paranormal activity — and a place where the curtain never truly falls.

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! The Brown Grand Theater in Concordia, Kansas, has always been a showstopper — but the most unforgettable performances may come from those you can't see. Built in 1907 by Colonel Napoleon Bonaparte Brown and completed by his son Earl, the theater's century-long history is steeped in legends of spirits who never left their beloved stage. Visitors report the lingering scent of Gertrude's phantom perfume drifting through the aisles, while Earl is said to still “run the show” from the other side. Then there's the mysterious man said to haunt the boiler room and the ghostly little girl in a blue dress who appears when the lights go down. In this episode of The Grave Talks, we speak with theater director Melissa Swenson and paranormal investigator Tonya Merrill about the unexplained events, spectral sightings, and chilling stories that make the Brown Grand Theater a hotspot for paranormal activity — and a place where the curtain never truly falls.

Some haunted houses whisper. Others clap. In Topeka, Kansas, a family nicknamed their resident spirit “Fred.” Decades earlier, a man who lived there wasn't allowed to drink inside the house. He'd sit in his car at night with the radio on — until one night his heart gave out. His wife found him dead in the car. Years later, a twelve-year-old living in that same home began sensing a presence. One morning, after staying up late watching The Conjuring, he rushed to get ready for school when he heard two sharp claps echo from the dark entryway — identical to the chilling scene in the movie. He froze, peered around the corner… no one there. His parents joked that it was just Fred telling him to hurry up so he wouldn't miss the bus. That same storyteller later attended Benedictine College in Atchison — widely called the most haunted town in Kansas. One night, while driving past the infamous Sallie House, he snapped a photo of the dark home. In the top-left window, the image revealed a blurry figure of a woman watching the street. His friend, seeing it with his own eyes, slammed on the gas to get away. Whether it's a protective spirit named Fred or the ominous figure in the Sallie House window, these encounters prove Kansas has hauntings that are as real as they are chilling. #HauntedKansas #FredTheGhost #TrueGhostStory #HauntedHouse #RealHaunting #TheConjuringClap #SallieHouse #HauntedAtchison #ParanormalEncounters #GhostInTheWindow #CreepyEVP #TrueParanormalStories Love real ghost stories?

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! Welcome to Cambre House and Farm, perched high on a limestone bluff with a natural mineral spring flowing beneath it — a perfect recipe for supernatural energy. Built in the 1800s, this historic farmhouse looks quaint at first glance… until you realize the ghostly residents never moved out. Visitors report doors swinging open on their own, footsteps echoing in empty hallways, and the lingering presence of a young girl's spirit who some say still likes to play the role of flower girl. There's even talk of honeymooning spirits from over a century ago, still wandering the halls where they first pledged their vows. Rebecca Williamson, the current owner of Cambre House, who reveals the eerie legends and chilling firsthand encounters that keep the farm alive with stories of the paranormal. If you love true ghost stories, tales of real hauntings, and the thrill of walking where spirits still roam, this is the haunted wedding destination you never knew you needed to hear about.

Some hauntings start small: a shadow in the corner, a door left open, a faint sound in the night. But sometimes they build into something you can't ignore. In this unforgettable letter, a listener shares how his quiet home began to feel wrong, how his guitar strings vibrated with no one playing them, and how one night he clearly heard a voice lean close to his ear and whisper: “Groovy.” The word is bizarre. The moment is terrifying. And it's one of the strangest cases we've heard on the show. Tony, Carol, Todd, and Cathy dive into what makes this story so disturbing. They talk about how spirits can slowly pull people in, how attention fuels paranormal activity, and how “narcissistic ghosts” seem to feed off the energy of those who notice them. Carol shares her own haunting from Burlington, Iowa, where she felt a spirit grow too attached — so much so that she had to leave her apartment for good. This is the perfect example of a haunting that escalates. First, objects move. Then sounds appear. Then, suddenly, there's a voice so close it feels like someone is standing right behind you.

Imagine sitting in your living room while your family prepares dinner, only to see a glowing blue ball of energy rise from the floor, explode in the kitchen, and light up the entire house. That's what one caller describes in this chilling account. The family was left shaken as the light filled both the kitchen and the living room in a burst so bright it felt like daylight. The story doesn't stop with the orb. Strange sounds followed: old record-player music, ghostly horse bells, and footsteps that sounded like a dog climbing stairs — even though the family dogs were right there in the living room. It's one of the most vivid and unsettling paranormal encounters we've heard. Was this ball lightning, a rare but real electrical phenomenon? Or was it something supernatural that science simply can't explain? Todd recalls his family's story of a fireball entering through a fireplace, adding even more weight to the discussion. The group explores the intersection between natural phenomena and paranormal experiences — asking whether sometimes the two are one and the same. This is the kind of story that sticks with you: strange, visual, and impossible to dismiss. If you've ever seen mysterious lights or heard unexplained sounds, this story will hit home. #RealGhostStories #BallLightning #GhostlyOrb #ParanormalLight #HauntedHouse #CreepyStories #ScaryStories #ParanormalActivity #GhostStory #ParanormalTalk Love real ghost stories?
