Ghost City: The Podcast

Let us know who you want to hear next!

Something about Gettysburg keeps pulling people back. Maybe it is the history, maybe it is the grief still embedded in the landscape, or maybe it is the feeling that the past is not fully past when you stand where thousands died. In Part 1 of this two-part conversation on the Ghost City Podcast, Tim sits down with Ghost City Tours Gettysburg manager Andy Andrews to explore the experiences that convinced him the paranormal is real. From a childhood spent near battlefields to early ghost hunts with cassette recorders and raw EVP sessions, Andy explains why direct voice responses can feel far more convincing than photos in an era where AI makes visual evidence harder to trust.

We also dive deep into some of Gettysburg’s most haunted locations, including the Hoffman Mansion, the Cashtown Inn, and the battlefield itself. Along the way, we discuss shadow figures, doors moving on their own, unsettling basement energy tied to Civil War medical history, and what it feels like to witness a full-bodied apparition with your own eyes at places like Triangle Field. If you are interested in Gettysburg ghost stories, Civil War hauntings, EVP evidence, and real paranormal investigation, this episode lays the groundwork for an even deeper dive in Part 2.

Ghost stories are easy to binge. Living with the subject matter for decades is something else entirely. We sit down with Steve Gonsalves from Ghost Hunters to talk about what paranormal investigation looks like when the cameras are off: the sleepless nights, the intrusive memories, and the emotional weight that can hit you days later when a case finally sinks in.

We also get nerdy about the parts of the field that are changing fast. Steve shares how conversations with physicists and geophysicists have shaped his thinking on residual hauntings, frequency, energy, and vibration, plus why serious consciousness research is making the “impossible” feel less dismissible than it used to. From debunking common misreads like orbs to questioning shadow phenomena, the goal is the same: filter noise, keep your standards high, and stay honest about what you do not know.

Then we step right into the AI problem. Deepfakes and synthetic media can poison paranormal evidence overnight, but AI can also be a powerful tool for evidence filtration, pattern recognition, and analyzing huge datasets like environmental readings and time-based activity. We talk gear myths, why many people misunderstand EMF meters, and a wild EVP experiment involving a vacuum sealed box that raises bigger questions about how electronic voice phenomena might work.

If you’re into paranormal investigation, Ghost Hunters, EVPs, haunted houses, or the science behind the unexplained, you’ll walk away with new frameworks and a few new questions to argue about.

Some ghost stories are fun until you stand on the ground where they started. We talk with Ed Bolden-Greer, an Appalachian storyteller, horror writer, and festival creator, about why the Bell Witch still feels “different” to people who’ve been to the land and why that feeling matters more than arguing over perfect facts.

We trace Ed’s path from the ministry to healthcare to running a massage school, then hit the burnout wall that so many people recognize from the shutdown years. Horror becomes more than a genre, it becomes a creative outlet and a way back to himself. We get into why humans are natural storytellers, how technology can flatten real connection, and why live storytelling brings energy you can’t fake through a screen.

From there we head straight into Appalachian folklore and cryptids: the warnings you grow up hearing, the reason “don’t whistle in the woods” keeps getting passed down, and how creatures like the Wood Booger sit in the same cultural neighborhood as Bigfoot. We also dig into paranormal investigation as a tool for wrestling with faith, experience, and the question of what it means when a place doesn’t feel empty.

Ed also breaks down his two podcasts, Ravens Vail (scripted, sound-designed, ongoing horror universe) and Cracked Cauldron (unscripted, talk-heavy, and not for the censor-happy), plus what people can expect at HorrorFest in Knoxville with vendors, panels, music, and storytelling shows.

She calls herself “the creepy girl with the dolls” online, but Kelsi Davies is far more than a viral paranormal creator. We sit down and trace the story from the beginning: a childhood filled with funerals, vivid dreams, and the unsettling feeling of knowing the dead were still present while everyone else insisted they were gone. That confusion turns into a mission as she builds a community for people who’ve had psychic, mediumship, or clairvoyant experiences and never knew who to tell. 

We go deep on haunted dolls, especially Lola, the doll Kelsi says carries an intelligent presence that responds through spirit boxes, REM pods, and other ghost hunting tools. Kelsi shares how she thinks “hauntings” work, from residual energy to spirits choosing objects as a kind of vessel, and why she believes consciousness can fragment rather than simply disappear. If you’ve ever wondered how a paranormal investigator separates vibe, imagination, and evidence, this conversation stays honest about uncertainty while still pushing for validation. 

Then the episode widens into bigger questions: why skepticism can be healthy, why intuition seems to show up more often in women, and what it’s like to investigate some of the most haunted locations in the US. We also talk about vivid nightmares, sleep paralysis, and the idea of involuntary astral projection, plus Kelsi's plant medicine experiences that reshaped her view of reality and purpose. Along the way, we connect the paranormal to consciousness, spirituality, and the modern pull of technology that leaves many people craving something deeper.

Most paranormal talk stops at scary stories. We wanted something more useful, so we brought on Chris and Jenn Talley from the New Orleans Paranormal Society to get specific about what actually works when you’re doing real paranormal investigation in New Orleans and what can go wrong when people copy TV tactics. We get into accuracy and ethics in haunted history, why the ghost tour industry still spreads myths, and how respect for the dead can change the results you get with tools like spirit boxes, EMF meters, SLS cameras, FLIR, and thermal cameras.

Chris and Jenn share how repeat visits build a relationship with a location, why music can be a powerful trigger for interaction, and what they call the Vlad method for testing responses. We also talk about the Andrew Jackson Hotel, childlike activity, and a long-term case involving “Paul,” including what a crossing attempt can look like when you take the human story seriously. Along the way we challenge the “everything is a demon” narrative, discuss attachments, cleansing after investigations, and the difference between negative energy and fear-driven storytelling.

Then we zoom out into the big question: what are ghosts, really? Tim lays out a consciousness theory that treats consciousness as a field in the universe that brains receive rather than create, and we explore how that idea could connect to paranormal phenomena. All of it ties into why they’re building New Orleans Paracon (July 31 to August 2 at the Crowne Plaza): an education-first paranormal convention with panels, workshops, vendors, and nightly investigations in the French Quarter.
