In the very first episode of Accidental Paranormal, Maggie dives into the strange, the historical, and the downright unexplainable.

This episode starts in Waikiki, where Maggie stayed steps away from the Moana Surfrider, the infamous hotel tied to the mysterious poisoning of Jane Stanford, co-founder of Stanford University. A quiet night turns uncanny when someone, or something, sits on the edge of her bed at 3 AM.

Then Maggie reads two chilling ghost stories from Reddit:
A haunting encounter inside a grandmother’s house
A terrifying tale from Thailand that blends culture, spirituality, and the unseen
