Join us for a deep dive into Hyde Hall, the massive 22,000 square foot mansion in upstate New York that might just be America’s most haunted location. Built over 17 years by the ambitious George Clarke IV, this neoclassical masterpiece was once the largest private home in America - and it’s been scaring the shit out of people for over 200 years.

From the mysterious family curse that supposedly doomed all women who lived there, to the 2013 Ghost Hunters investigation that captured some of their most compelling evidence ever, Hyde Hall has it all. We’ll explore the Clarke family’s rise and fall, the mansion’s near-demolition in the 1960s, and the documented paranormal activity that includes full-body apparitions, responsive phenomena, and infrared camera evidence that still can’t be explained.

Whether you’re a believer or a skeptic, the sheer volume of documented paranormal reports from this architectural wonder will leave you questioning what’s really happening in those 50 rooms overlooking Otsego Lake.

We are visiting our First Asylum on the show today - On the tranquil shores of Lake Winnebago, families picnic and anglers cast their lines into peaceful waters. But beneath the serene surface of Asylum Point Park lies one of Wisconsin’s darkest chapters—a story of institutional failure, forgotten graves, and spirits that refuse to rest.

Join us as we explore the haunting history of the Northern Asylum for the Insane, which opened its doors in 1873 and became home to some of Wisconsin’s most troubled souls. From the attempted assassin of Theodore Roosevelt to the hundreds of unnamed patients buried in unmarked graves hidden in the woods, this is a place where tragedy and the unexplained intertwine.

We’ll dive into documented paranormal encounters, including reports of a spirit named Rufus who still roams Sherman Hall, and examine the scandals that rocked the institution—including the 1934 death that triggered a legislative investigation and led to 30 dismissals. But this isn’t just another abandoned asylum story. Unlike most institutions of its era, Winnebago Mental Health Institute never closed its doors, evolving from a place of suffering into a modern treatment facility that courageously displays its dark past.

Is Asylum Point truly haunted, or does the weight of historical trauma simply leave an imprint that sensitive souls can feel? We’ll explore the evidence and let you decide.

*Content Note: This episode deals with historical mental health treatment practices and institutional abuse. While approached respectfully, listener discretion is advised.*

What happens when a trusted family funeral home becomes a house of horrors? In this episode, we dive deep into the shocking true story of Pasadena’s Lamb Funeral Home and the criminal empire built by David Sconce in the 1980s. From mass cremations cramming dozens of bodies into single ovens to black market organ harvesting and gold tooth theft, this respected funeral home hid crimes that would make your worst nightmares seem tame.

But here’s the kicker – with tens of thousands of bodies desecrated and families betrayed in their most vulnerable moments, paranormal investigators believe the spiritual fallout is still lingering. Are the restless dead still seeking justice at the former Lamb Funeral Home? We explore the documented crimes, the ongoing paranormal claims, and why this case represents one of the most disturbing betrayals of trust in American funeral industry history.

They’re windows into the injustices and tragedies that shaped American history.

Join me for a journey through places where the past refuses to stay quiet, complete with genuine folklore research, personal commentary, and the kind of stories that make you want to drive with your headlights on.

Deep in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin sits an eight-sided house with nine secret passages, underground tunnels, and 160+ years of documented paranormal activity. Built in 1856 by the town’s first mayor as protection against Native American attacks, the Octagon House quickly became a stop on the Underground Railroad—and apparently a permanent home for the spirits of the Brown family who lived there.

From spinning wheels mysteriously disassembling themselves to glowing eyes in the basement tunnels, this isn’t your typical ghost story. 

Featured as the second-most haunted house in Wisconsin on the History Channel, the Octagon House represents something darker about human nature—the lengths we’ll go to feel safe, and how trauma leaves permanent marks on the places where it happened.

Deep in Wisconsin lies Saint Nazianz - a tiny town with one of the darkest paranormal reputations in the Midwest. Founded in 1854 by German priest Father Ambrose Oschwald, this religious commune was meant to be paradise. Instead, it became something far more sinister.

When Oschwald died in 1873, houses shook across town simultaneously. His body never decomposed for 53 years. For over 150 years, Saint Nazianz has been plagued by supernatural reports including the abandoned JFK Prep School that investigators call one of Wisconsin’s most haunted locations.

Join me as we explore documented history, witness testimonies, and the ongoing mystery of whether this former religious colony remains cursed.

On December 29, 1972, Eastern Air Lines Flight 401 crashed into the Florida Everglades, killing 101 people in one of aviation's most tragic accidents. But the Flight 401 crash was just the beginning of this true ghost story. When Eastern Air Lines salvaged parts from the Flight 401 wreckage and installed them in other aircraft, airline employees began reporting something impossible – real ghost encounters with the dead crew members aboard other flights.

In this paranormal podcast episode, we dive deep into one of the most well-documented hauntings in American history. From Captain Robert Loft ghost sightings appearing in first class to Flight Engineer Don Repo's apparition staring out of overhead bins, these weren't vague supernatural experiences but detailed encounters with apparently solid spirits who continued trying to protect passengers even after death. Despite Eastern Air Lines' threats to fire employees who spoke about the Flight 401 ghost sightings, the paranormal reports persisted for 18 months until the airline quietly removed all salvaged aircraft parts from their fleet – and the aviation ghost sightings stopped.

Join Creepy Shit Podcast for this chilling tale of aviation tragedy, corporate cover-ups, and protective spirits who refused to abandon their posts. This true haunting story explores documented paranormal activity, ghost encounters on airplanes, and one of aviation's most mysterious supernatural cases. Perfect for fans of true ghost stories, aviation mysteries, paranormal investigations, and real haunting experiences.

Topics covered: Eastern Air Lines Flight 401 crash, Flight 401 ghosts, aviation paranormal activity, airline ghost stories, Captain Robert Loft ghost, Don Repo spirit encounters, aircraft salvage hauntings, corporate paranormal cover-ups, Everglades plane crash, documented ghost sightings, true haunting stories, aviation supernatural phenomena.

Today on Creepy Shit Podcast, we are exploring haunted salons – real haunted salons, and as an actual hairstylist of nearly 20 years, this episode is going to make you think twice about who could be standing behind you during your next salon visit.

We investigate two documented cases of paranormal activity in active beauty salons. First, the historic Dorris House in Grapevine, Texas, where salon owner Lauren Jackson experiences bottles of red nail polish mysteriously flying off shelves and lights turning on by themselves. Then we visit Jazz Hair Salon in South Shields, England, where owner Sheena Carmichael deals with unplugged dryers spinning on their own and a disembodied voice telling customers to "get out."

I'll share my own unexplained encounter from two decades behind the chair, plus explore why beauty salons seem particularly prone to ghostly activity. These aren't just ghost stories - they're documented experiences from professional businesswomen willing to risk their reputations by speaking about the unexplainable.

**Content Warning:** This episode contains some explicit language and descriptions of potentially unsettling paranormal activity.
