Hist-eerie Podcast

What makes a ghost? According to legend and lore, a ghost is created from sudden death, regrets, despair, and murder. There are no ghosts created from happiness. Or are there? In this long-awaited Christmas holiday episode of the Hist-eerie podcast, "America's Ghost Storyteller" Diane Ladley, introduces you to a most unusual haunted house in Savannah, Georgia; filled with a large family of ghosts who happily abide together forever in their own little piece of Heaven on earth. 

Rated PG-13, not for younger or more sensitive listeners due to graphic descriptions of certain dark historical events and facts.



Special Note to You From Diane: "Hi there! Just a note to say that while this episode features some (deliciously dark!) traditional Christmas music and mentions Christmas specifically, please be assured that its message is intended to warm the hearts of people of all faiths, or of no faith at all, during this most magical, supernatural time of year."

Award-winning "America's Ghost Storyteller", Diane Ladley, presents a thrilling work of audio fan fiction in honor of HBO®'s GAME OF THRONES television show and George R.R. Martin's novels. Remember Old Nan, the elderly woman who told the boy Bran such bone-chilling scary stories of the Night King, Corpse Queen, Mad Axe, and others? Diane re-tells Old Nan's stories (northern Scottish accent and all!), spinning those terrifying legends that sprang from George Martin's deliciously fearsome imagination. Listen, and you'll feel as if you're the boy Bran Stark himself, huddled in his bed as Old Nan does her best to scare the wits out of him...and succeeds.

Ghost children. No other paranormal entity is more desperately tragic and heart-rending to our emotions—or more capable of freezing the blood in our veins—than that of a child haunting the site of their death. Saddest of all are the ghosts of children who had been abandoned by their parents and society, left into the cold, indifferent care of orphanages and foundling hospitals from ages past. At their best, such places throughout history were comfortable and clean, where the children were given simple education, trained for future work, and properly fed. At their worst, orphanages were their own circle of Hell. This episode of Hist-eerie—the second in a three-part series—explores the innocent children who were condemned in life by society's most callous doctrines...and whose ghosts condemn us after their deaths.

Would you live in the most paranormally active house in the U.S.? Where more people have died and more ghosts haunt it than any other single family home in the nation? You'd have to be nuts. Yet some people would do anything to live there. Because it means they'd be the world's most powerful person. The address is 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington D.C. The White House. On this episode of Hist-eerie, Diane Ladley, "America's Ghost Storyteller", will slip you past the Secret Service on a private ghost tour inside the mansion that has terrified presidents for centuries.

Something evil lurked within the steel and iron body of the World War I German U-boat, the UB-65. Frightened sailors named it both haunted AND cursed—but how? In this one-year anniversary episode of Hist-eerie, Diane Ladley, "America's Ghost Storyteller", separates fact from fiction behind one of maritime history's most terrifying legends with, "The Cursed WWI German U-boat, UB-65". The ill-fated submarine was forged in the hellish fires of war to wreck devastation upon Germany's enemies. Did some supernatural entity turn Hell back on its creators and crew? Now at rest in its eternal grave at the bottom of the sea, the doomed submarine's tally of bizarre deaths stands at 56 men...and counting. Because its deadly curse lives on!

One ordinary person can change history, for good or bad.  And those are only two examples *that we know of*.  How many heroes—or villains—are there throughout history who we don't know about?  I would like to present a case of one such unknown hero, who changed the course of world history...and who still haunts his ancestral home.

A great wave of paranormal activity rose in the aftermath of Japan's cataclysmic 2011 earthquake and tsunami.  Did these ghosts float up from the watery depths of the survivors' traumatized subconscious?  Or were they real?  Vanishing hitchhikers, crisis apparitions, imprinted residual haunts, and even demonic possessions, are in this month's powerful Hist-eerie episode, "Ghosts of Japan's Tsunami".
