Podcasts about objects

When Kristy and her young family moved into her mother-in-law's house, nothing about it seemed unusual. The home wasn't known to be haunted, and life settled into the familiar routine of raising small children. But before long, little things began happening that were easy to dismiss on their own. Strange sounds at night. Objects that never seemed to stay where they were left. Moments that felt unsettling, but never quite convincing enough to call paranormal.Everything changed when her young son began talking about someone only he could see. He insisted a woman visited him after everyone else had gone to bed, describing her the same way every time. He never seemed frightened—only concerned that she looked lonely.As more unexplained moments unfolded inside the house, Kristy began wondering whether children really can see what adults can't...or if something had been quietly sharing their home all along.#GhostStory #HauntedHouse #Paranormal #TrueGhostStories #HauntedHome #Spirits #Supernatural #AfterMidnight #RealGhostStory #GhostEncounter Love real ghost stories?

Episode 5480: Changing America's Election To Stop Fraud; MAGA Objects

Nobody in the family called the old Colorado cabin haunted.They just quietly agreed there were certain rooms nobody liked being alone in.Over the years, relatives, friends, and visitors all seemed to have their own experiences. Someone would hear footsteps outside a bedroom window. Someone else would wake up to the sound of voices coming from another room. Objects disappeared and reappeared. Guests occasionally mentioned strange things at breakfast, only to discover they'd described something other family members had experienced years earlier.What makes the cabin so unusual isn't one dramatic encounter. It's the fact that the stories span generations.For as long as anyone can remember, people have arrived at the cabin, experienced something they couldn't explain, and eventually realized they weren't the first person to notice it.#RealGhostStories #HauntedCabin #ColoradoHaunting #FamilyGhostStories #ParanormalExperience #Hauntings #TrueGhostStory #UnexplainedPhenomena #HauntedPlaces #ParanormalActivityLove real ghost stories?

A broke private eye rides south to explain away a little girl's imaginary friend, and walks out of a pine-country farmhouse convinced the old man pushing her on the swing has been dead for years.EPISODE PAGE (includes list of sources): https://weirddarkness.com/noir-oldmanonsutterlaneTRANSCRIPT: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/2p84f78kTHE REAL CASE BEHIND THIS STORY: In February 1989, Andy and Lisa Wyrick moved into a brick ranch house on Swint Loop in Ellerslie, Georgia, a small town in Harris County about a hundred miles south of Atlanta. The land had once been an antebellum plantation, and the previous owners had walked off and left the house abandoned long enough for it to go to auction. The following month, the Wyricks' three-year-old daughter Heidi began describing visits from an elderly man she called Mr. Gordy — silver-gray hair, dark suit, top hat, shiny black shoes — who pushed her on the backyard swing. Not long after, a wounded man she called Con appeared at the front door, a bloody bandage on his arm and blood soaking his shirt.Both were eventually tied to deceased local figures. James S. Gordy had run a real estate company in Columbus, Georgia, served for years as Sunday school superintendent at Ellison Methodist Church, and was connected to the Swint Loop property as executor and caretaker before his death. (His death year appears inconsistently across sources, with some citing 1972 and most citing 1974; either way, he died well over a decade before Heidi was born.) Lon "Con" Batchelor had lost his hand in a cotton gin accident as a teenager, returned home in bloodied clothing with his arm in bandages, and died of cancer in 1957. Heidi, who could not yet read, picked Gordy out of a blind photo lineup and walked directly to his grave among hundreds of headstones in a local cemetery. She identified Batchelor — whose name she'd heard as "Con" — from a family photograph brought to the house by Catherine Ledford, who had previously owned the adjacent property and knew the family history.Beginning in 1993, the activity escalated sharply. Heidi and other family members began seeing a black, hooded, faceless figure that moved through the house, stood in Heidi's closet, and appeared at the foot of her bed. Objects moved on their own; a kitchen chair pulled itself from the table in front of two witnesses; scratches appeared on Heidi and her father Andy across consecutive nights. The Wyricks' second daughter, Jordan, born February 3, 1994, later began reporting interactions with an unseen child. Parapsychologist Dr. William Roll — an Oxford-educated psychologist who had spent eight years researching at Oxford before building a scientific reputation studying haunting phenomena — investigated the case. He recorded an electromagnetic field spike to over forty milligauss in the parents' bedroom against a residential baseline near one-tenth of a milligauss, found elevated positive ion concentrations near Heidi's room, and tied her perceptions to environmental sensitivity and documented seismic activity in the Columbus region. He could not explain the scratches. Roll also traced a reported family history of psychic sensitivity across several generations, extending back to Lisa's mother and to land in north Georgia along the Trail of Tears route.Roll brought in medium Amy Allan — later known to television audiences through The Dead Files — who walked the property under blind conditions and identified three entities in the back rooms: two older men and a faceless dark presence. A second psychic, brought in separately by the family, named the same three entities in the same locations and identified the fireplace as a portal. Years of mounting medical bills kept the Wyricks in the house long after they wanted to leave. After Heidi was found suspended upside down above her bed by an unseen force, they sold the property when she reached her mid-teens. She reported seeing apparitions in the homes that followed.Andy Wyrick died in 2012 at age 45; no cause of death has been widely reported. Dr. William Roll died the same year, in February 2012. Heidi Wyrick married a man named Aaron, relocated to Columbus, and built a career in the medical field. She stopped seeing Mr. Gordy around age eight but still reports seeing the dark figure, and has said in interviews across many years that not a day passes when she doesn't wish the events had never happened. The case was featured on Unsolved Mysteries in 1994, profiled in the Discovery Channel's 2002 documentary A Haunting in Georgia, and served as source material for the 2013 film The Haunting in Connecticut 2: Ghosts of Georgia. Heidi's aunt Joyce Cathey published a firsthand account in The Veil: Heidi Wyrick's Story.WeirdDarkness® is a registered trademark. Copyright ©2026, Weird Darkness.Originally aired: June 28, 2026

In this episode, Roman and historians Heather Ann Thompson and Elliot Williams tell the story of the sharpened screwdriver: the object at the heart of the 1984 Bernhard Goetz subway shooting. In a difficult moment in New York City, four Black teenagers were transformed in the public imagination into armed criminals. What follows is a gripping account of how misinformation takes hold, how fear shapes public opinion, and how one narrative can ripple outward – echoing through decades of similar cases that continue to unfold today.

When Karen and her husband brought home a beautiful antique table from a rural antique store, they never imagined it would become the center of a growing mystery.At first, the strange incidents were easy to dismiss. Objects appeared where they shouldn't be. Furniture seemed to move on its own. Family members occasionally reported seeing figures in the house. None of it was dramatic enough to prove anything, but it was enough to leave them uneasy.The real turning point came when Karen's skeptical brother offered to take the table home. Certain the family was blaming an innocent antique for a series of coincidences, he happily added it to his own house.Then the same unexplained activity started happening there.As the strange events followed the antique from one family to another, both households found themselves asking the same unsettling question: was the haunting attached to the house—or had something come home with the table?#HauntedObject #HauntedAntique #ParanormalPodcast #RealGhostStories #HauntedFurniture #GhostStory #ParanormalEncounter #UnexplainedActivity #HauntedItems #TrueParanormalStories Love real ghost stories?

At first, it was easy to dismiss.A pastor heard voices on the phone when no one else was in the room. A light fixture fell and shattered—twice. Objects appeared to move on their own. Then an elderly woman began walking the hallway every night.Still, they tried to convince themselves there had to be a reasonable explanation. But some houses seem determined to make themselves impossible to ignore.The longer the family stayed, the stranger the activity became. What started as small disturbances slowly escalated into something that felt personal, as though whatever occupied the home wanted its presence acknowledged.Then one afternoon, a glance into a mirror revealed something standing directly behind him. Less than a week later, the family was gone.#RealGhostStories #HauntedHouse #ParanormalPodcast #GhostStories #TrueGhostStory #HauntedHome #SupernaturalEncounter #ScaryStories #ParanormalActivity #UnexplainedEvents Love real ghost stories?

In this inspiring episode, Mike C-Roc sits down with multi-hyphenate entrepreneur and creative visionary Ianthe Mauro—actress, writer, teacher, candle designer, product curator, podcast co-host, and founder of Gan Aden Farms tallow skincare. As the Founder and CEO of Objects with Purpose, an eco-luxury candle brand featured in the Oscar Swag Bag, The Today Show, HGTV Frontdoor, USA Today, The New York Times Magazine, and carried in over 200 stores nationwide, Ianthe shares the journey of building a purpose-driven brand while staying true to herself.The conversation goes far beyond business, diving into Ianthe's upbringing surrounded by accomplished musicians and intellectuals, including her father's connection to legendary composer Leonard Bernstein. She reflects on being raised by deeply loving parents, the impact that foundation had on her life, and why gratitude, love, and light remain the guiding principles behind everything she does. Ianthe also opens up about her lifelong passion for acting, the realities of Hollywood, and the difficult decision to walk away from an industry that often treated artists as products rather than storytellers.Throughout the episode, Ianthe shares powerful lessons on authenticity, resilience, creativity, and embracing a life that doesn't fit into a single box. She discusses balancing entrepreneurship with motherhood, becoming a creator with purpose, and why following your own path—rather than conforming to expectations—can lead to the most meaningful success. This episode is a heartfelt reminder that our greatest impact comes when we fully embrace who we are and create from a place of intention, service, and unapologetic self-expression.Website:Ganadenfarms.co https://www.instagram.com/ianthemauro/

Tell me your favorite episode for the 6th anniversary show! In the 18th century, a French astronomer who was a regular comet hunter kept finding things in the sky that weren't comets, but they also weren't stars or planets.  So, he created a list of these objects, not because he was trying to catalog the night sky, but rather to help other comet hunters avoid these common objects. It turned out his list consisted of some of the most incredible objects inside and outside of our galaxy.

Washington and W. E. B. Du Bois, Roman and Imani uncover how a single object became a gateway to literacy, self-determination, and an enduring debate about what education, citizenship, and freedom should mean in America.

For years, the strange activity in the Chicago townhouse came and went in cycles. There were footsteps when nobody was upstairs. Objects disappeared and reappeared. Long stretches of calm were followed by periods where the house seemed determined to remind the family it was still there.Most of the time, Dorothy's father insisted there had to be a reasonable explanation. Her mother wasn't so sure.Then came a sweltering summer night when a sleeping cat suddenly reacted to something no one else could see. Within moments, the entire house was awake, a family was searching for answers, and one terrified teenager was left trying to make sense of an experience she would never forget.Decades later, one detail still stands out above everything else: whatever happened that night felt personal. And it left her convinced that whatever had entered the room wasn't there for her.#RealGhostStories #HauntedHouse #ParanormalEncounter #GhostStory #TrueHaunting #ChicagoGhosts #ThingsThatGoBumpInTheNight #ParanormalActivity #HauntedBedroom #UnexplainedExperiences Love real ghost stories?

A screw. A stuffed possum. A shoe-sizing device. What could any of these objects possibly tell us about the history of the United States?When we think of historic artifacts, we tend to picture the extraordinary: Abraham Lincoln's pocket watch, the original Kermit the Frog, Martin Luther King Jr.'s draft of the "I Have a Dream" speech. But the story of America can just as easily be found in the everyday objects that shape our lives.In this bonus episode, Lizzie sits down with Roman Mars to talk about his new series, A History of the United States in 100 Objects. Together, they explore how ordinary things can reveal distinctly American stories.Guests: Roman Mars, host and creator of 99% Invisible To pitch your object to Roman's team, write to 100objects@99pi.org

Ten years, 500 shows, countless guests. To celebrate our anniversary, we're releasing a special four-part series looking back at the evolution of L&D. In part one, Ross G and Ross D are joined by friend-of-the-show Julie Dirksen to revisit our early years. We discuss: whether L&D has yet become 'evidence-based' dumb ideas we fall for, get over, and fall for again evidence-based orthodoxies which we once believed, but now aren't so sure about. During the discussion, we referenced the Mehrabian fallacy, problems with the forgetting curve, and how psychologst Anders Ericsson improved his memory by forming connections with running times. In 'What I Learned This Week', Ross D referenced A History of the United States in 100 Objects, a podcast collaboration between the BBC and 99% Invisible. He wants you to know that his description of the 'screws' episode is inaccurate. Ross G discussed the carrier pigeon-based social media app Roost. Next week, we'll be revisiting our second Era: The pandemic years.

He had always considered himself more of a skeptic than a believer.Then he and his wife moved into a modest Cape Cod-style home and began noticing small things they couldn't quite explain. Shadows at the edge of their vision. Objects turning up in strange places. Motion lights activating when no one was near them.At first, he treated it all like a puzzle. His wife was less amused.The activity became harder to dismiss when the lights began turning on in sequence, almost as if someone were walking through the house. Then a casual conversation with a neighbor gave the mystery a name—and suddenly, the strange path through the home seemed to make a lot more sense.#RealGhostStories #ParanormalPodcast #GhostStories #HauntedHouse #TrueGhostStory #ParanormalEncounter #MotionLights #GhostChild #UnexplainedMystery #HauntedHomeLove real ghost stories?

When her family moved into an old farmhouse in Oregon, the strange activity seemed easy enough to dismiss. Objects disappeared, unsettling feelings lingered in empty rooms, and her parents occasionally heard what sounded like a child running and laughing through the house long after everyone had gone to bed.At first, they assumed there had to be a logical explanation.But as the months passed, the incidents became harder to ignore. The activity seemed to center around one of her younger sister's favorite possessions—a clown doll nobody could remember buying and a bedroom her father suddenly became very uncomfortable entering.What happened next convinced her parents that whatever was in the farmhouse wasn't going away.Not long afterward, they made a decision many families would never consider: they packed up, left the house behind, and never looked back. #RealGhostStories #GhostStories #ParanormalPodcast #HauntedHouse #HauntedFarmhouse #CreepyDoll #PossessedDoll #TrueGhostStory #ParanormalEncounter #UnexplainedMysteryLove real ghost stories?

No other American colony projected such extensive power with so few people. We recount how the French explored the vast northern region they called “Canada” for decades in pursuit of furs and the Northwest Passage, but repeatedly failed to plant a lasting colony in the harsh and forbidding land—until they found in Samuel de Champlain a leader with the shrewdness and grit to overcome the severe cold, the vast distances, and the treacherous politics of the Saint Lawrence basin. We trace the growth of Quebec from little more than a warehouse in the frozen wildnerness to a thriving town, controlling the most critical gateway into the continent and serving as the hub of a lucrative trading network, a vast constellation of mission towns and outposts (including the Christianizing experiment known as Montreal), and most importantly, a formidable indigenous alliance system that dominated the continenet from the Atlantic to Lake Superior. Finally, we consider the disasters of the mid-1600s, including deadly epidemics and warfare with the Five Nations, that brought Canada's most important allies to their knees and threatened to wipe the colony off the map.

In 1861, one man and a “gas bag” filled with hydrogen sparked America's obsession with going higher, farther, into the unknown. In this episode, Roman and journalist Jack Hitt tell the story of Thaddeus Lowe — showman, scientist, and dreamer — whose balloon flight from Cincinnati went wildly off course and straight into the Civil War. Lowe pivoted to create the US military's first aerial reconnaissance unit, a precursor to the Air Force, and today his legacy spans generations— stretching all the way to the dark side of the moon.

What do Civil War pension files reveal about one of history's most successful slave rebellions? Historian Edda Fields-Black joins Roman to trace a story of fire, flight, and freedom — beginning on a South Carolina rice plantation in 1863, where a Union raid liberated over 700 people in a single night. By unearthing Black soldiers' testimonies buried in military pension applications, they resurrect not just the raid, but the lives and communities it transformed.

Chris grew up hearing stories about an apartment his parents rented when he was a baby.At first, the stories sounded almost harmless. A Christmas tree that somehow lit up after being unplugged. Strange little incidents that were easy to dismiss individually.Then the activity became harder to explain.Objects appeared to move on their own. Rooms felt wrong. And one experience frightened his mother so badly that she grabbed her infant son and fled the apartment without even stopping for shoes.The strangest part came years later. Long after the family had moved away, new tenants kept asking the same question his parents had once been asked themselves: Had anything unusual ever happened in that apartment?#RealGhostStories #ParanormalPodcast #GhostStories #HauntedApartment #TrueGhostStory #ChristmasGhostStory #ParanormalEncounter #HauntedHome #UnexplainedMystery #ThingsThatMoveOnTheirOwnLove real ghost stories?

In the early 20th century, nothing quite fit — fire hoses couldn't connect to one another, football teams played with different balls, traffic lights meant different things in different states. Then World War II exposed the deadly cost of incompatibility, and the US quietly imposed a single solution on production lines across the world: the 60-degree screw. Roman Mars and historian Daniel Immerwahr tell the story of a hidden industrial empire, built one standard at a time.

The old apartment building had once been a school before being converted into rentals, but Karen didn't think much about that when she moved in.At first, the strange activity felt easy to explain away. A misplaced set of keys. A movie mysteriously turned off. Objects left in places she didn't remember putting them.Then the voices started.One afternoon while recording video at a friend's house, everyone in the room heard someone clearly say Karen's name—even though no one else was there. Moments later, the camera seemed to catch a shadow moving down the hallway.After that, the activity inside her apartment became harder to ignore. And years later, Karen still isn't completely sure whatever was there ever truly left her alone.#RealGhostStories #HauntedApartment #ParanormalPodcast #GhostStories #ShadowFigure #TrueGhostStory #SpiritEncounter #HauntedBuilding #VoicesFromBeyond #ParanormalExperienceLove real ghost stories?
