Haunted Vermont

In February ... Rachel Burton died at the young age of 21 years old. Her husband later remarried, however once his new wife fell ill. He blamed the disaster on the first wife, Rachel. He was afraid of her coming back for vengeance that he had her dugged up, and burned her organs at Jacob Meads Forge. You can listen to more about this on my talk with author, Tom D'Agostino. Or check out his book, "A History of Vampires in New England."

Robert is a 7th-Generation Vermonter, born in Rutland in 1958. I am a descendant of William Brewster of the Mayflower and count among my ancestors a Great-Grandfather, Great-Great Grandfather, and Great-Grandmother who were all artists.

I graduated from St. Michael's College in 1980 with two degrees, one in Fine Arts and the other in History. This, of course, rendered me unfit for employment, so I went on to get a Master’s in Art Education from Castleton University in 1985.

From 1981 to 2012, I was the art teacher at the Browns River Middle School. Since 1995, I have served on the Board of Directors of the Northern Vermont Artist Association, first as president and now as vice president. I am a founding member of the Vermont Comic Creators Group.

Paul shares his "Black Dot" story from when he was out working on Route 22A as a flagger for traffic control, when it was a clear blue sky, no clouds at all. It was a interesting scene nonetheless of what happened.

Champ – The little plesiosaur is a children’s book that tells the story of Champ, the sea creature who lives in Lake Champlain. The story begins with a young Champ finding himself alone and then his adventures along the Adirondack coast as he matures. The book is a combination of photos that I’ve taken and watercolors I created and merged to show a visual representation of our beloved Champ. Although the book reflects endless hours of work, I loved combining two passions, photography and watercolors. The story is based on stories I heard growing up, documented history and of course, a dollop of folk lore. I hope that you enjoy this endearing story of Champ and the art that I created to make our favorite lake creature come to life.

Failed baseball player Jason Dillon has just moved to the quiet, Vermont town of East Valley, but unfortunately, his timing couldn't have been worse. Though the entire twentieth century only brought eight notable storms to the Green Mountain state, Hurricane Ivana has just arrived with a special delivery—a tree through Jason's roof.
On his desperate trek to find help, Jason comes upon Sophia, a little girl who has been tied up and left in the woods. Despite his best intentions, Jason's attempt to help the child has interrupted the ritual of a neighborhood cult—a ritual that protects the town from an ancient demonic swine.
With all the roads leading out of town impassable, Jason and his few allies must not only escape the pursuing cultists, but somehow survive a curse that has left the majority of East Valley's population with an insatiable hunger.
Cultists, cannibals, and the demon itself must all be defeated if Jason and his friends are going to survive...

I scream, you scream, we all SCREAM for ice cream!
Burlington, Vermont has always been Phil's favorite place in the world. From maple syrup farms, to shimmering Lake Champlain, to Ted and Barry's Ice Cream, what's not to love? So when Phil's family decides to spend the summer visiting friends on the lake, he is thrilled. That is, until the twins, Fia and James, tell him all about the people who have mysteriously disappeared after swimming in the lake . . . and the terrifying beast said to lurk below its surface.
Phil isn't about to let some silly old legend ruin his summer (or his ice cream). But when an unseen creature in the water nearly attacks him, he has no choice but to team up with his friends to take down the lake beast once and for all--unless it gets them first!

Joining Paul on this Episode is Director, Austen out of Barre, VT. Looking to complete a short mystery video shoot at the Wilson Castle. It seems something may be wanting to put in their "pulls" as well.

Mia and Candice have also come onboard to talk about their little mishaps, or at least experiences. As the mishap could have been mistaken for something thrown, and not a "punch."
