Our first Holzer Files Reaction: Grave Secrets

This week, Amy and Megan continue their experiment of rolling the dice and reacting to a paranormal show they've never pre-screened. Their random selection leads them to a haunted house, a mysterious bloodstain, a tragic family legend, and one very unsettling ghost whose preferred method of communication appears to be shushing people.

As the investigation unfolds, long-held local stories start to unravel, leaving Amy and Megan questioning everything they thought they knew about the haunting. Along the way, they spiral into discussions about nightgowns, muumuus, Blair Witch trauma, ghost-hunting gadgets, and whether some paranormal legends survive simply because they're too good for a town to let go.

Join us for haunted history, unexpected twists, and a healthy amount of paranormal tomfoolery.
