This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! PART TWOThe Gill House stands as a striking example of Victorian architecture and a reminder of Galion's prosperous past. Built by Bloomer Gill as a grand family residence, the home quickly became a social centerpiece—hosting lavish gatherings and welcoming notable visitors, including Andrew Firestone, Thomas Edison, and Henry Ford.Today, the distinguished guests are gone—but many believe something else has taken their place. Visitors and investigators report hearing children's laughter drifting from the attic and seeing shadowy figures moving through the halls. The most unsettling activity is said to occur in the basement, where disembodied voices, screams, and encounters with a ghostly figure known as “Johnny Cake” have been reported. After the home passed to the Talbott family, some believe Old Mrs. Talbott never truly left, making her presence known through tapping sounds and swirling mists. In this episode of The Grave Talks, we explore the Gill House's history—and what may still linger within its walls.#TheGraveTalks #GillHouse #HauntedOhio #VictorianHauntings #HistoricHauntings #ParanormalPodcast #HauntedLocations #UnexplainedEncounters #GhostStoriesLove real ghost stories?

About half a million Syrians living in Turkey have returned to Syria — just one in five. Although aid groups estimate many more will follow, it's a difficult decision, and many are wary of Syria's new leader and struggling economy. Also, a stretched polar vortex is bringing severe winter storm conditions to half the continental US, and is causing temperatures to plummet across even more of the northern hemisphere. And, Guinea-Bissau's minister of health announced Thursday that the country was halting a controversial Danish-led, US-funded trial of a hepatitis B vaccine. Plus, a groundbreaking Australian play has come to New York for a few weeks. It's called "The Visitors," and it tells an important piece of Australian history from an Aboriginal perspective.  Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices

In this episode of VISITORS, Sam delves into conversation with Captain Robert Salas, who recounts his extraordinary experience as a missile commander at Malmstrom Air Force Base in the 1960s (in our lovely state of Montana). During a night shift, Salas and his crew encountered a mysterious glowing object that disabled all ten of their nuclear missiles. This incident, which occurred amidst the Cold War tensions, raises questions about the relationship between UFOs and nuclear weapons. Salas shares his insights on the implications of such encounters and the ongoing secrecy surrounding military experiences with unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs). We also touch on the broader context of nuclear deterrence and the potential for extraterrestrial intervention in human affairs. Fun stuff!

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! PART TWOTucked into the quiet hills of Northeast Tennessee, Rugby is often whispered about as one of the most haunted towns in America. Founded in 1880 by renowned author Thomas Hughes, Rugby was envisioned as a utopian village—a place of equality, culture, and harmonious living far from the industrial chaos of England.But the dream didn't last.Disease, hardship, and tragedy soon followed. A devastating typhoid outbreak claimed the lives of many early residents, and the once-hopeful experiment slowly unraveled. Today, Rugby feels suspended in time. Its Victorian-era buildings remain remarkably preserved, its population hovering around just 75—depending, some say, on who you count.Visitors and locals alike report unexplained activity throughout the village: footsteps in empty rooms, voices carried on the wind, and shadowy figures glimpsed where no one should be. Nearly every building has its own ghost story, adding to the sense that the past never truly left.In this episode of The Grave Talks, we explore the lingering spirits of Historic Rugby Village with Miranda Young, uncovering why this quiet town may still be home to those who never moved on.For more information on Rugby, visit their website at historyhighwayshaunts.com or find them on Facebook at Historic Rugby After Dark.

Kate Adie introduces stories from Greenland, Colombia and Greece.President Trump has said the US needs to 'own' Greenland, to prevent Russia and China from taking it. Katya Adler has been in the capital Nuuk, speaks to Inuit women about the island's painful history of colonisation - and its now uncertain future.Colombia has also been attracting attention from Mr Trump, following the recent US operation in Venezuela. This schism is out of step with decades of US foreign policy, but an on-going war of words between Colombia's president, Gustavo Petro, and the US President on issues from migration to US strikes on fishing boats in the Caribbean, has put a strain on the relationship. Ione Wells report from Bogota.A hot-button issue for Japan's Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi is the problem of over-tourism. Visitor numbers have rocketed in recent years, leading to a rise in the tourist tax. But it's not a problem being felt everywhere in the country. James Innes-Smith travelled to one prefecture where efforts to bring tourists back have fallen flat.And finally, a landmark court case came to a close in Greece this week, in which a group of aid workers were put on trial after rescuing migrants from the Mediterranean. The 24 former volunteers have faced a range of charges, including human trafficking, money laundering, and facilitating the illegal entry of foreigners into Greece. Tim Whewell travelled to Lesbos, where he discovered how the migrant crisis that began in 2015 has shaped an entire community.Series Producer: Serena Tarling Production Coordinators: Katie Morrison and Jack Young Editor: Richard Fenton-Smith

I have been selling direct to the consumer in the wine trade for over 35 years. The industry certainly is not what it was; in some ways, better, in other ways,  not so much. I've seen it all...well, at least most of it.  The month and year I started with the Original Wine of the Month Club, my father was featuring a Romanian wine; mind you, Romania was still under Soviet rule. In this episode, I speak with Dr. Marinella Ardelean, expert on Romanian wine. I have to tell you, having Marinella Ardelian on the show took me back, and not just because she reminded me that the first Romanian wine I ever sold—way back in 1989—was a $2.50 Sauvignon Blanc from a winery called Premiat. There's something poetic about opening an episode by unearthing an old newsletter my late father wrote about that wine, especially since it was the same month I joined the family business. Wine really does have a way of sharpening your memory. The nose, the flavor, even the price tag—they stick with you. The conversation started with that kind of serendipity, but Marinella Ardelian quickly brought us to the present. She's based in Venice, waves the flag for Romanian wine, and has this bright, unfussy way of making big topics feel accessible. I love guests like that—insightful without being pedantic, and uncannily good at weaving personal experience into global perspectives. Right off the bat, she fine-tuned the narrative: Romanian wine doesn't need to come "back" to the world stage, it needs to stand in the spotlight it deserves, shoulder to shoulder with France and Italy. I'll admit, I never would've guessed Romania is now in the top six worldwide for vineyard acreage—and domestically, folks there are still drinking 30 liters a year! Sure, the numbers dance around a bit, but the underlying story is about a country with real wine culture. We spent a little time reminiscing about the communist days, when the government controlled everything and Vinexport was king. But the part that struck me most was her clear-eyed take on why Romanian wine isn't chasing the bottom shelf in America. "Romanian wines are not cheap," Marinella Ardelian declared, and she meant it. With high domestic demand and only a sliver of production exported, those who do ship overseas bring quality, not just volume. She's keen on stories and education—Romanian wine, she said, needs context, not just curiosity. This segued beautifully into the broader question of how a wine region markets itself. Marinella Ardelian made a compelling case: you can't just sell the wine, you have to sell the country. Romanian wine, for her, is inseparable from Transylvanian castles, farm-to-table food, and the dramatic scenery. I found that refreshing. Too often, we get obsessed with varietals and forget there's a living culture behind every label. She also explained that since the fall of communism in 1989, a whole generation of winemakers has embraced indigenous grapes like Fetească Neagră—known as the "Black Maiden"—with all the finesse of Pinot Noir and the spice of Syrah. That's the kind of local color I live for. And with the second generation now taking the reins and forming actual cooperatives (something even Armenia, my ancestral homeland, struggles with), you can sense something big is building. Wine tourism, she told me, is finally taking off in Romania. Visitors can ride horses, hunt mushrooms, and sip estate wines in places that wouldn't be out of place in Bordeaux or Barolo. That's the future—experience, narrative, and authenticity. If there's a takeaway, it's that Romanian wine is at a crossroads, one foot in ancient soil, the other in the modern world. Marinella Ardelian has a vision for both—and I left our conversation convinced it's only a matter of time before the rest of the world catches on. I can't wait to revisit this story in a few years and see how far it's come.   Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/wine-in-romania-meet-the-expert-and-wine/id1462215436?i=1000647229708 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/2kiWrgS5fH8p85I6iS6Gnp?si=McZCVWPEQ6W9T-3jfGGMCQ Wine Talks: https://www.winetalkspodcast.com/wine-in-romania-meet-the-expert-and-wine-comtessse-marinela-ardelean/

Until 1984, there was no road connecting the oasis of Siwa and its 8,000 Bedouin residents with the rest of Egypt. Lost deep in the desert near the Libyan border, the country's most remote oasis was long unknown to tourists. But over the past decade, videos of visitors floating in turquoise salt lakes, climbing the 13th-century citadel or wandering through palm groves have flooded social media.

The MIB. They appear without warning, dressed in black, knowing things about you they shouldn't possibly know — and they always deliver the same chilling message: stop asking questions, forget what you saw, or else.IN THIS EPISODE: The mysterious Men in Black… are they government agents? Time travelers? One man who experienced them first-hand has a different theory. And we'll look over a few separate incidents of people experiencing the Men in Black. (The MIB: I Knew They Were Evil) *** In spring of 2015, the Great Barrington Historical Society & Museum formally inducted the infamous Reed case of alien encounters. But is the Reed family alien abduction a valid historical fact - or UFO fan fiction? (Reed Family Alien Abduction) *** Weeping statues are nothing new, and believers claim they are miracles without much investigation. However, the Vatican proves them to be hoaxes almost 100% of the time. The latest is the statue of Our Lady of Guadalupe in New Mexico. Will this be the one that finally convinces the Vatican of a true miracle? (Weeping Statue) *** Had Leonarda Cianciulli's life not been so muddled by superstition, curses, and Romani fortune tellers, she may never have murdered at all. (She Turned Her Victims Into Soap and Teacakes) *** A family keep seeing black creatures in their home with no explanation of where they came from – or where they go. (Black Creatures on the Isle of White) *** On May 30, 1883, a stampede took place on New York's Brooklyn Bridge, killing 12 people -- all because of a bizarre rumor! But the bridge has always had a strange history. (Death On The Brooklyn Bridge) *** If humanity were to receive a message from an extraterrestrial civilization right now, it would be the single greatest event in the history of civilization. But according to a new study, such a message could also pose a serious risk to humanity. (If We Receive A Message From Aliens Should We Delete It Without Reading?) *** With as many people that pass on while being treated by EMTs, it should probably be no surprise that phantoms might be encountered in an ambulance. (Haunted Ambulance) *** There was no doubt that Thomas Joy was murdered by gunshot – but the witnesses all had different stories, as did the police. What really happened? (Who Shot “Tonce” Joy?) *** If you believe your house is haunted, it's best not to try and confirm it by using a Ouija board. Nothing good can come from that.

Visiting the Museum of Literature Ireland (MoLI) Dublin didn't earn its UNESCO City of Literature designation by accident. This is a city shaped – physically, culturally, and emotionally – by writers. Their words echo through streets, pubs, libraries, and public spaces, forming part of everyday life rather than sitting quietly on a shelf. One of the best places to understand how writers shaped Dublin – and why literature still matters here – is the Museum of Literature Ireland, known simply as MoLI. MoLI Exhibition; photo credit: MoLI, used with permission This article is based on podcast episode 3220featuring David Cleary, CEO and Director of the Museum of Literature Ireland (MoLI).Use the player below to listen or scroll to continue reading the article and get resource links. Why Writers Matter in Dublin In Dublin, writers aren't treated as distant historical figures. They're part of the city's identity. As MoLI director David Cleary explains, Irish literature captures people first – their voices, humor, contradictions, and daily lives – and that human focus is what gives Irish writing its global reach. The rhythm and cadence of Irish writing are shaped by history, by language, and by place. Even when written in English, the influence of Irish language and speech patterns gives Irish literature a distinct flow that feels different on the page. First copy of Ulysses What MoLI Shows That Other Museums Don't MoLI focuses on writers as people, not just their most famous works. Visitors see: Drafts, notebooks, and creative planning How writers developed ideas and structure The trial-and-error behind finished books A highlight for many visitors is the first printed copy of Ulysses, paired with James Joyce's handwritten preparation notes – a reminder that even the most celebrated writers wrestled with their work. A Broader View of Irish Writing Rather than focusing only on literary “greats,” MoLI shows the range of Irish writing: Poets, playwrights, novelists, and children's authors Irish-language and English-language writers Contemporary voices alongside historic figures Rotating exhibitions explore different genres and themes, reinforcing the idea that Irish literature is living, evolving, and accessible. MoLI from St. Stephen's Green; photo credit: MoLI, used with permission Newman House — Place Matters MoLI is housed in Newman House, a set of Georgian buildings dating to the 1730s. Writers didn't just pass through here – they studied here. Figures like James Joyce, Maeve Binchy, and Flann O'Brien walked these same floors. That connection between place and writing is intentional, the building itself reinforces how closely literature and location are intertwined in Dublin. Behind the museum is MoLI's reader's garden, with access to the Iveagh Gardens – a quiet, green space that encourages slowing down and engaging with words rather than rushing on to the next sight. Planning a Visit to MoLI Booking: Recommended but not required Time needed: 1–2 hours Experience: Self-guided Location: St Stephen's Green (easy to pair with nearby attractions) Visit the Museum of Literature Ireland website for more information and follow on Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook for more inspiration. MoLI works especially well as a flexible stop – something that adds depth to a Dublin day without feeling overwhelming. in the Long Room at Trinty College Three More Writer-Focused Stops in Dublin To continue exploring Dublin through its writers, consider adding: Trinity College Long Room – A visually stunning library tied to Ireland's literary heritage (only available with a Book of Kells Experience ticket) The Palace Bar – A longtime gathering place for writers and journalists Independent bookshops like The Winding Stair, where Irish writing is still very much alive MoLI makes it clear that Dublin isn't just a city with famous books – it's a city shaped by the people who wrote them. Visiting the Museum of Literature Ireland adds context to everything else you see in Dublin, from street names to pub conversations, and helps explain why words still matter so much here. The post Dublin – A City Shaped by Writers appeared first on Ireland Family Vacations.

Top Stories for January 10th Publish Date: January 10th PRE-ROLL: Kia Mall of Georgia From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Saturday, January 10th and Happy Birthday to Rod Stewart I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by Gwinnett KIA Mall of Georgia. Affordability a top concern as lawmakers prepare for Georgia legislative session Srim Academy to host series of free seminars for young parents Christkindl Market drove 77% increase in downtown Lawrenceville visitors All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: EAGLE THEATRE STORY 1: Affordability a top concern as lawmakers prepare for Georgia legislative session When Georgia lawmakers head back to the Capitol next week, it’s all about affordability—or at least that’s the plan. House Speaker Jon Burns isn’t mincing words: “We’re laser-focused on making life affordable,” he said Wednesday, pointing a finger at property taxes for crushing the dream of homeownership. “For too many families, it’s slipping out of reach. We’ve got to fix that.” Meanwhile, Senate Republicans are eyeing income taxes. A committee led by Sen. Blake Tillery wants to nix the 5.19% tax for individuals earning under $50,000 (or $100,000 for couples) and eventually scrap it altogether by 2032. But affordability isn’t just about taxes. Rising medical costs? A mess. The end of federal health insurance subsidies? A looming crisis. Burns says the House will tackle health care, focusing on keeping doctors in Georgia by expanding residency programs. STORY 2: Srim Academy to host series of free seminars for young parents Srim Academy, a Montessori school in Norcross, is kicking off a series of free seminars for young parents—because, let’s face it, parenting is hard. Topics? Everything from potty training and screen time battles to fostering independence and getting kids to actually move their bodies. The first session, “Fostering Your Child’s Independence: Lemonade, Ladybugs and Learning,” happens Saturday, Jan. 31, at 10:30 a.m. at 5511 Williams Road. Expect 90 minutes of practical advice, hands-on activities (think crafts and cooking), and maybe even a few lightbulb moments. Led by Srim’s seasoned faculty and guests from Gwinnett Building Babies’ Brains, it’s all about building confidence—for kids and parents. Bonus: giveaways! Details? Visit www.srimacademy.com or call 678-808-9813. STORY 3: Christkindl Market drove 77% increase in downtown Lawrenceville visitors Lawrenceville’s first year hosting the Atlanta Christkindl Market? A total game-changer. Nearly 371,000 people visited the market during its debut season downtown—more than double the attendance from its Buckhead days, even with fewer open days. And here’s the kicker: 159,500 of those visitors wandered over to the Lawrenceville Square, boosting local restaurants and shops by 77% compared to 2024. Free parking, shuttles, and a glowing Winterlight Walk helped draw crowds, with visitors from 48 states. Downtown businesses saw sales jump 5–30%, and vendors reported 20–30% higher sales than the previous year. The collaboration between the city and Gwinnett County was key, with County Chairwoman Nicole Love Hendrickson adding, “This event showed what’s possible when partnerships thrive.” Lawrenceville’s officially on the holiday map. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: Ingles Markets STORY 4: 2026 Beer Chaser 5K Registration is open Whether you’re a speed demon or a beer-loving stroller, the Beer Chaser 5K is calling your name. On March 7, Suwanee Town Center Park transforms into a St. Paddy’s Day celebration with a twist—running, sipping, and plenty of green. This isn’t your average 5K. Sure, it’s a Peachtree Road Race qualifier, but it’s also a beer lover’s dream. Choose your adventure: run straight through or stop at five beer stations along the scenic Suwanee Creek Greenway. Each station features a different Georgia brewery, so your taste buds get a workout too. Not into mid-run sips? No worries. Every runner (21+) gets a full beer at the finish line. And the party doesn’t stop there—StillFire Brewing is hosting an after-party with live music, food trucks, and 25 beers on tap. Registration starts at $55 for the straight-through option or $65 if you want those beer stops. Prices go up Feb. 1, so don’t wait. Oh, and don’t forget your festive St. Paddy’s Day gear—there are prizes for best costume, best group, and best kilt. Proceeds benefit Kiwanis Charity, supporting local causes like the North Gwinnett Co-Op and Children’s Healthcare. Details? Head to SuwaneeBeerFest.com/beer-chaser-5k/. STORY 5: Lanier Islands Resort looks back at 2025, forward to an exciting 2026 Lanier Islands Resort just wrapped up a big year—its 50th anniversary—and it’s clear they’re not slowing down anytime soon. Recognized as one of Georgia’s Best Vacation Destinations, the resort is leaning into its legacy while planning some exciting upgrades for 2026. Last year was packed: a new chapel and garden for weddings, a free summer concert series, the return of Magical Nights of Lights, and even a lantern festival that drew 4,500 people. Oh, and they snagged awards from The Knot, WeddingWire, and GolfPass, among others. Looking ahead? A $3 million refresh for Legacy Lodge, a revamped golf clubhouse, and Georgia’s first lighted Par-3 course. Plus, new events like a Fall Songwriter Series. Big things are coming. We’ll be right back. Break 3: GCPL Passport STORY 6: Rep. Andrew Clyde announces 2026 Congressional Art Competition Hey, high school artists in Georgia’s Ninth District—Congressman Andrew Clyde wants *you* to show off your talent in the 2026 Congressional Art Competition. Got a creative spark? Here’s your chance to have your work displayed in the U.S. Capitol for a whole year. Submissions are due Feb. 20, and the process is simple: send a digital image of your piece first, and if you’re a finalist, drop off the physical artwork by March 13. The theme? Anything that reflects North Georgia—think landmarks, industries, or even your school. Accepted mediums include paintings, drawings, mixed media, photography, and more. Just keep it two-dimensional, under 26x26 inches framed, and under 15 pounds. Oh, and no copying or controversial content—this is about originality. Questions? Call Clyde’s Gainesville office at 470-768-6520. Let’s see what you’ve got! STORY 7: Gwinnett Chamber introduces Elevate Business series The Gwinnett Chamber is shaking things up with the launch of the Elevate Business Series (EBS)—a fresh, expanded take on their long-running Small Business Series. Starting in 2026, this revamped program is all about helping small and medium-sized businesses level up with sharper insights, practical strategies, and tools to thrive. Why the change? Simple: demand. Attendance has been climbing, industries are diversifying, and businesses are hungry for deeper, more advanced content. “Elevate reflects how far we’ve come—and where we’re going,” said Megan Lesko, the Chamber’s Senior VP of Membership. The first event? Feb. 24, featuring Media Frenzy CEO Sarah Tourville on strategic communications. We’ll have closing comments after this Break 4: Sugar Hill Ice Skating Rink Signoff – Thanks again for hanging out with us on today’s Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast.

Links for the Show: Fondazione FS Italiane National Railway Museum Strada dell'Olio DOP Umbria  Via di Linari In this episode, Kimberly Holcombe and Tommaso share insights from their friends who recently traveled to Italy during the Christmas holiday. They discuss historical train routes, exciting activities like driving a Ferrari through Tuscany, and adventurous hiking and biking options. Join us in this episode for unique ways to experience Italy beyond the typical tourist paths. Key Points: Christmas in Italy: Venice was less crowded than Rome during the holidays. Italian locals gather in Rome for Christmas, making it more crowded. Venice had crowds during specific events like the Santa Claus gondolier parade. Uber Black in Rome: Friends used Uber Black successfully in Rome, despite previous reliability concerns with standard Uber. Uber Black offers larger, luxury vehicles with professional drivers. Historical Exploration: Friends regretted not researching the history of Italian landmarks before their trip. Tommaso suggests spending ample time before the trip researching historical facts so they are better prepared once there. New Travel Options for 2026: Historical Train Journeys: Italy's historic railways, managed by La Fondazione FS Italiane. Binari Sensa Tempo (Timeless Tracks): Offers dozens of itineraries across the country. The National Railway Museum is in Pietrasara, outside Naples.

The train features Centoporte (100 Doors) carriages from the 1920s to the 1980s. Sommeliers offer tastings of regional wines like Barolos. Olive Mill Trains: Frantoi Aperti (Open Olive Mills) trains run every weekend through mid-November. Organized by Strada dell'Olio DOP Umbria (The Olive Oil Road). Visitors can taste fresh extra virgin olive oil and learn about production. Guided tastings led by professional tasters are available on board. The route runs from Arezzo to other Umbrian towns like Spoleto and Assisi. Promotes mindful travel and reduces carbon emissions. Luxury Driving: Drive a Ferrari through the hills of Tuscany. Prices are around 4,000 euros per day, or 2,000 euros per person for two. Multi-day excursions include high-end hotels. Adventure Hiking: Via Di Linari: An ancient 93-mile trail through medieval monasteries, abbeys, and a national park. The trail snakes through Emilia-Romagna and the Apennine Mountains into Tuscany.

Hundreds of years ago, a group of Native Americans living along the lower Susquehanna River made an indelible mark on the valley. At what is now known as Safe Harbor, they made hundreds of carvings into the rocks found in the middle of the river.Animals, bird and animal tracks, directional symbols, teaching or storytelling images, humans and anthropomorphic images, spiritual symbols and geometric and abstract designs were painstakingly carved into the boulder strewn landscape of the river. From the banks of the river, the sites look like any of the rocks found in the river. But up close, these stunning petroglyphs offer a window into a fascinating culture that we still know very little about. Despite Native Americans being driven from their homes, villages and hunting grounds. Despite countless floods. Despite dam construction. Despite pollution. Despite industry. And despite man's constant need to exert his will over the river, these magnificent petroglyphs remain.Big Indian Rock. Little Indian Rock. Circle Rock. Turkey Track Rock. Eagle Rock and Conestoga Rock.Right in the middle of the Susquehanna River, as they have for hundreds of years. These sites are sacred spaces for Native Americans. The Safe Harbor Petroglyphs are a rare, direct connection to Indigenous peoples who lived along the Susquehanna River long before European contact.For many Native communities, these carvings are not just historical artifacts but living cultural expressions—messages left by ancestors that carry spiritual meaning. Their location along the river, a vital life-giving force, further reinforces their sacred nature as places of reverence, storytelling and ancestral presence.And unlike many pieces of indigenous rock art, they are accessible to the public. But that accessibility comes with a responsibility. These carvings are irreplaceable cultural and spiritual expressions created by Indigenous peoples, and even small actions—touching the rock, climbing on it, or disturbing the surrounding area—can cause permanent damage.Visitors also have a responsibility to listen and learn. Approaching the petroglyphs with humility means acknowledging that this site holds meaning far deeper than what we may fully understand, and that it represents living cultures whose histories and voices have too often been ignored or erased.On this episode, I speak with Paul Nevin. Paul is recognized as the leading authority of rock art of the lower Susquehanna River and is the author of the “A Guide to the Safe Harbor Petroglyphs.” Be sure to support our 2025 sponsors:Keystone Trails AssociationPurple Lizard MapsPennsylvania Parks and Forests FoundationSisters' SunflowersDiscover Clarion CountyGo Laurel Highlands Support the showVisit our website to learn more about the podcast, to purchase merch and to find out about our incredible sponsors.

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! Towering over Colfax, Washington, St. Ignatius Hospital stands as a silent witness to more than a century of human suffering, care, and unanswered questions. Built in 1893 as the first hospital in Whitman County, the building once represented hope and healing. Today, it's known for something far more unsettling.

Ghost Tour Director Val Gregory joins us to explore the long history and persistent paranormal activity surrounding St. Ignatius Hospital. From documented history to firsthand accounts gathered during tours and investigations, this conversation examines why the hospital continues to draw curiosity—and why its presence still feels very much alive.

In 1932, Dr. William Amos Trivette opened a modern clinic in the rural farmlands of Hamptonville, North Carolina. His dream was to bring advanced medicine to his community—but just six years later, his untimely death closed the doors on that vision. Over the decades, the building became a supper club, a detox center, a nursing home, and even a nursery. Yet through every new chapter, the same question lingered: who—or what—never left? Today, the Trivette Clinic is one of North Carolina's most talked-about haunted locations. Visitors report phantom footsteps, doors that move on their own, icy cold spots, and the laughter of unseen children.

In 1932, Dr. William Amos Trivette opened a modern clinic in the rural farmlands of Hamptonville, North Carolina. His dream was to bring advanced medicine to his community—but just six years later, his untimely death closed the doors on that vision. Over the decades, the building became a supper club, a detox center, a nursing home, and even a nursery. Yet through every new chapter, the same question lingered: who—or what—never left? Today, the Trivette Clinic is one of North Carolina's most talked-about haunted locations. Visitors report phantom footsteps, doors that move on their own, icy cold spots, and the laughter of unseen children.
