This week’s listener mail is about a 10 year old boy with a creepy story. Have a spooky story or question of your own (or someone you know)? Send your story or question to [email protected] and we might read it on the podcast. You could be on a future episode of Ghostly!

Pat explores the history of the 11th president. From a childhood with illness to unlikely presidential candidate, Polk led an extraordinary life.

Pat and Rebecca debate the paranormal evidence. Visitors claim to see apparitions, including a man in a dark suit and a shadowy figure. There are also pictures of a face that looks like Polk as well as a mysterious beam of light.
