Coven, there has been so much happening in the news, and we have been waiting patiently to cover it! The recurring theme this week seems to be 'things we'd love to watch a TV show about' - from a meltdown happening at an Antarctic research base, to an exorcism at 30,000 feet, there's plenty to discuss. We'll talk about the mysterious circumstances around Gene Hackman's death, and learn about how Aaron Goodwin very nearly went on a permanent Ghost Adventure. There's all that and so much more on this week's episode! 

Happy Haunting!

Last week, we joined the Donner Party on the first half of their journey from Missouri to California. When we last left them, they were camped out by Truckee Lake in the Sierra Nevadas, and snow began falling on their camp. The group could not know then what that snowfall meant, and the sad fate that would await them in the coming months. In the final installment of our Donner Party series, we will learn about the brutal winter of 1846, as the group fought for survival amid 20 feet of snow and unimaginably harsh conditions. We'll learn just what humans are capable of when faced with the worst adversity one can think of- both the good and the bad parts of humanity on display. And we'll learn about the strength this group mustered in the face of unthinkable suffering. This one is certainly not all sunshine and roses, but we'll do our best to find a laugh or two when we can, and a few lessons along the way! Lisey ends this episode on a bright note, sharing exciting news of some new furry additions to her family (and maybe a little insurance policy for those long, cold Alaska winters?) 

Happy Haunting!

In the spring of 1846, over 500 covered wagons set off from Independence, Missouri, headed West towards a new life. They could not fathom the difficulties and harsh conditions they would encounter along their journey, and this was especially true for one group of pioneers, now infamously known as the Donner Party. Most have heard salacious headlines outlining the gruesome atrocities committed by the group, but not many know the equally fascinating story of the beginning of their journey. In part one of this two part series, we’ll learn about the first 7 months of their crossing, from Illinois to the foothills of the Sierra Nevadas. We’ll hear the details of the brutal challenges they encountered on the Oregon Trail, and one fateful wrong decision that would come to cost many human lives. With equal parts wild history and silly banter, this is an episode you won’t want to miss! 

Happy Haunting!

It's Valentine's Day, coven! And nothing says true love like a woman saving herself from her abuser. The story of Lorena Bobbitt is a muddled one, evoking images of an angry, jealous woman who exacted her revenge by cutting off her husband's penis. The true story, however, is much more sinister. John Wayne Bobbitt, while quite simple-minded, was anything but innocent. In the words of Cell Block Tango, "He had it coming," just not in the way he hoped. Tonight, we'll explore John and Lorena's short and rocky marriage, dig into John's extensive history of abuse, and discover what Lorena did with that penis after she cut it off. We'll talk about each of their subsequent trials and learn where they are today in the aftermath of a case that rocked the nation. Happy Haunting!

What a week it's been, y'all. Tonight's episode focuses on mental respite in the form of laughter, and we invite you to escape from the real world for just a moment and join us for silliness... and maybe too much wine. This week we cover all manner of ridiculous news, from sasquatch hunts tearing apart marriages (surprisingly neither of ours), to finding out just what happens when you consume too much cheese. We'll talk Turkish UFOs, egg-related crime, and stupid vampire castle hats. Come laugh through it all with us! 

Happy Haunting!

Coven, you've heard us share our constant worry that we're both dangerously susceptible to joining a cult. This week, we're really putting our strong will to the test as we cover arguably the coolest cult we've ever heard of. It's got the first female truck driver in Brazilian history, it's got aliens, it's got astral projection, it's got super rad outfits, and it has friendly Jesus. What more could we ask for? In the 1950s, Neiva Chavez Zelaya had been suffering for years from disturbing visions and overwhelming out of body experiences that she couldn't explain. Eventually, she sought help from psychics and spiritual healers, and learned to harness what would become extraordinary gifts. She used these gifts to heal the poor and sick, and grew a following that would number in the hundreds of thousands. Will we soon count ourselves among those followers? Tune in to find out!
Happy Haunting!

There’s no shortage of disappointments this week, but perhaps none so great as the realization that one woman was not, in fact, dating Brad Pitt. An $855k disappointment to be exact. And then there’s the gal who was reported dead while she was still very much alive, a man whose face was set ablaze during surgery and a train full of anti-tank missiles delivered to our favorite Swedish furniture store. You just can’t make this stuff up. Happy haunting!

In July 1969, the United States beat the Soviet Union in the decades long Space Race, taking one giant leap onto the surface of the moon. Neil Armstrong’s steps would go down in history as one of mankind’s greatest achievements. But there are those who question whether it happened at all. Was our technology really up to the task? Or were we fighting a losing battle against the Soviets, desperate to hold on to our reputation? We’ll explore the history of the Space Race and the two brains behind it all - Wernher Von Braun and Sergei Korolev. One a former major in the SS and the other a former prisoner of the Gulag. Both would use their knowledge of rocket science to advance space travel in ways we’d never before seen. We’ll dig into conspiracy theories started by technical writer Bill Kaysing, and examine photos from the landing that people love to pick apart. In the end, we’ll tell you where we each land. Strap in for a fun episode uncovering one of America’s greatest conspiracy theories. Happy Haunting!

Happy New Year, coven! We're starting 2025 off with a bang (Lisey wishes) as we continue our ongoing cryptid series and cover Louisiana's Honey Island Swamp Monster. This one is a real treat, as we dig up firsthand accounts of sightings of this elusive creature. First spotted in the 50s and 60s, he rose to local fame in the early 70s. But has he really been seen for centuries, just called by many different names? Or is he an invention of an avid hunter who wants free reign over good hunting territory? You know we'll share our strong opinions! Join us as we toast to the new year, and partake in some witchy rituals that will surely bring us all happiness and prosperity in the coming year. 
Happy Haunting!
