Some filmmakers chase fame. Some chase truth.
Larry Eissler III chases things that rattle doors at 3 a.m.
In this episode, we welcome the award-winning filmmaker, author, and historian from the Telly Award-winning Expedition Entity — a man who treats the American Midwest like a paranormal crime scene that never closed. Larry specializes in the hauntings most people drive past with the windows up and the radio loud.
We descend into the story behind The Séance and The Séance: Bloodlines, filmed at the historic Roff House, home of the infamous Watseka Wonder case. Yes, possession. Yes, séances. Yes, the kind of place where your EMF meter gets more action than your dating apps.
We also dig into Mark of the Trinity, unexplained activity tied to deeply rooted history, and his other projects like Psychic Speedrun and Ghost Clips and Chill, where the paranormal meets modern storytelling and occasionally stares back.
Then things get uncomfortably current.
Larry’s project Haunted By Likes explores the strange new world where ghost hunters battle algorithms as much as spirits. In an age of livestreamed investigations and viral apparitions, we ask the big question. Are people still looking for the truth, or just better lighting?
From the blood-soaked echoes of the Black Hawk War to spirits said to linger at historic landmarks, Larry brings a mix of research, respect, and just enough dark humor to keep you from sleeping with the lights off. Probably.
If you like your history haunted, your ghosts documented, and your afterlife with a side of sarcasm, this episode is waiting for you.
Just do not blame us if something follows you home.
