Not My Ghost, Not My Problem

What if the dead didn't need to appear as ghosts? What if mysterious lights were spirits searching for lost loved ones, an Appalachian witch could turn people into horses, or that deer beside the road wasn't actually a deer? This week, Jen and Kelly explore three Appalachian legends: the Brown Mountain Lights, the Witch of Booger Hole, and the Not Deer. Behind the folklore are government investigations, accusations of witchcraft, an unsolved murder, and a modern cryptid whose origins trace back to the internet. We're separating the history from the hauntings, with our usual questionable humor.

⚠️ Content Warning: Discussions of murder, domestic violence, slavery, accusations of witchcraft, and violence against animals.

👀 Sneak Peek

- 🔦 The Brown Mountain Lights and what government investigators could (and couldn't) explain

- 🧙‍♀️ Grandma Thorn, the Witch of Booger Hole, and the murder of Annie Boggs

- 🦌 Not Deer: the uncanny cryptid and its surprising online origins

- 🔍 Where historical evidence ends and spooky folklore begins

❓ Question for the Comments: Have you ever seen a deer behave so strangely you wondered what you were looking at?

🎃 The broadcast isn't over. And neither is the nightmare.

Welcome back to Dead Air, a special two-part Halloween audio anthology brought to you by The Creators Collective!

When we last left our unfortunate podcasters, their Halloween broadcast from an abandoned radio station had taken a seriously sinister turn. The stories they were sharing were becoming terrifyingly real, an entity on the phone was learning more about them, and their chances of making it out alive were looking pretty bleak.

And after Brandon's failed escape attempt? Things are only getting worse.

But could a ghostly host from the past be the key to breaking the curse? Or is this broadcast destined to end in disaster?

There's only one rule: Don't stop broadcasting if you want to survive.

So grab your headphones, keep an eye on the shadows, and whatever you do, don't touch that dial. We're going back on the air.

🎙️ About This Collaboration

Deep beneath the Appalachian Mountains, abandoned coal mines hide dangerous tunnels, tragic histories, and stories of miners who may have never truly clocked out. This week, Kelly takes us underground for two chilling tales: The 24th Victim and The Whistle at Midnight. We're talking phantom miners, mysterious disappearances, impossible tunnels, and voices echoing from places no one should be. Meanwhile, Jen provides increasingly unhinged commentary and repeatedly questions why anyone would willingly stay in these places. Because apparently, hearing ghost miners calling your name isn't enough of a reason to leave.

⚠️ Content Warning: Mining disasters, death, disappearances, disturbing imagery, and discussion of mental health.

👀 Sneak Peek

- ⛏️ Three unsettling facts about coal mines, including underground fires that can burn for decades.

- 👻 A researcher discovers something deeply wrong inside Black Rock Mine.

- 🔦 Phantom workers, shifting tunnels, and a mysterious lunch pail.

- 📻 A security guard at Ravens Hollow hears a whistle, but nobody's supposed to be working.

❓ Question for the Comments: Would you spend one night guarding an abandoned coal mine, or is that paycheck absolutely not worth it?

Appalachia already gave us rules about whistling, looking, answering voices in the woods, and generally knowing when to mind our own business. Naturally, we responded by finding three Reddit paranormal stories about people doing their best while the mountains apparently ignored every reasonable boundary. We’ve got a honeymoon cabin outside Gatlinburg where voices start calling people by name, a West Virginia dirt road with an eight-foot white figure waiting near a fallen tree, and a bizarre, shadowy camper at Elkmont whose headlight does something lights are absolutely not supposed to do. Meanwhile, Joel arrives as Aunt Judith and becomes increasingly concerned about everyone involved, including us.

With Joel (FuelNeve) — paranormal creator, podcast host, and our resident “WTF are you still doing here?” commentator. Follow: IG @thefuelneve | TikTok @Fuelneve

⚠️ Content Warning: Mature language, sexual humor, drug and alcohol references, frightening paranormal accounts, and brief discussion of racist imagery.

👀 Sneak Peek

📞 A mysterious call somehow comes through at a remote Gatlinburg cabin with no signal

👻 A walk down Grandma’s dirt road ends with an eight-foot white figure near a fallen tree

🔦 A strange camper at Elkmont repeats the same unsettling routine before seemingly disappearing

📱 We attempt to establish whether looking through a camera violates the Appalachian rule about looking

❓ Question for the Comments: If you saw something strange in the woods through your phone camera, does that count as looking?

You’ve probably heard the warnings: don’t whistle in the woods, don’t answer when something calls your name, stay on the trail, and if the forest suddenly goes silent… leave.

But are the viral “Rules of Appalachia” actually old mountain folklore, or did the internet take a mix of traditions, safety advice, and spooky stories and turn them into one giant supernatural rulebook?

We’re kicking off October in Appalachia by separating documented folklore from modern internet horror. We dig into the cultural roots of Appalachian traditions, folk magic, Spearfinger, witch “stirrups,” alpha-gal syndrome, and the way social media helped reshape the region into a list of supposedly ancient survival rules.

⚠️ Content Warning: Brief discussions of death, slavery, and Indigenous displacement.

👀 Sneak Peek

🌲 Which viral “Rules of Appalachia” actually connect to regional folklore

🗣️ Why you supposedly shouldn’t answer a voice calling your name in the woods

🧙 Appalachian folk magic, Spearfinger, and witch “stirrups”

📱 How the internet helped reinvent Appalachian horror

❓ Question for the Comments: Which Rule of Appalachia have you heard before, and where did you first hear it?

The McCormick Family Farm story started with buried bodies, shifting accusations, and an investigation that left far too many questions unanswered. In the final part of our deep dive, we follow Michael McCormick’s story to its disturbing conclusion, revisit the effort to search the Colorado property for possible additional victims, and finally get to the reason this farm landed on our list in the first place: the ghosts. From shadow figures and unexplained voices to an apparition reportedly resembling Tom McCormick and an investigation by Portals to Hell, this is where true crime and the paranormal collide in one deeply unsettling place.

⚠️ Content Warning: Murder, kidnapping, suicide, suicidal ideation, and discussion of human remains.

👀 Sneak Peek

🔎 A retired detective reopens the McCormick investigation decades later

🌾 The possibility that additional victims were never found

👤 Shadow figures, unexplained voices, touches, and an apparition resembling Tom McCormick

❓ Question for the Comments: After hearing the history and the paranormal claims, do you think something is still haunting the McCormick Farm?

Michael McCormick offered investigators a deal: information about Herbert Donaho and the other bodies buried on his family’s Colorado farm in exchange for leniency. But as the graves were uncovered, Michael’s accusations against his father began colliding with his own involvement—and eventually with an entirely different confession. In Part 2 of our now three-part McCormick Murder Farm deep dive, we follow the bodies, the broken plea agreement, the overturned conviction, and the questions nobody could conclusively answer.

⚠️ Content Warning: Graphic discussion of murder, torture, mutilation, and human remains.

👀 Sneak Peek

🤝 Michael offers investigators information in exchange for leniency

🪦 More bodies are uncovered on the McCormick property

🕵️ His accusations against his father begin to unravel

⚖️ A murder conviction is overturned nearly two decades later

❓ Question for the Comments: Who do you think was telling the truth about what happened on the McCormick farm—Michael, Tom, neither, or some horrifying combination of both?

What happens when a property known for paranormal activity is also tied to one of Colorado’s most disturbing criminal investigations? In Part 1 of our now three-part deep dive into the McCormick Family Farm, we follow Michael Rexford McCormick from a stolen-truck investigation and two spectacular bail jumps to the deal that sent authorities searching for buried victims. Along the way, we examine the farm’s history, allegations involving its vulnerable workers, Herbert “Bert” Donoho’s disappearance, and a six-hour hotel standoff—plus enough chaotic banter to briefly make talking geese seem like the least threatening part of this story.

⚠️ Content Warning: Murder, suicide, suicidal ideation, substance use, and the exploitation of unhoused and vulnerable people.

👀 Sneak Peek 🚛 The stolen truck that connected Michael McCormick to a missing man 💰 Two million-dollar bonds—and two disappearing acts 🌾 Disturbing allegations about how the farm recruited and controlled workers 🚨 A stolen credit card, a Best Western, and a six-hour police standoff

❓ Question for the Comments: At this point in the story, do you believe Michael was telling investigators the truth?

Something may be lurking beneath the lakes of Oklahoma—and something else is wandering Pennsylvania’s hemlock forests, crying uncontrollably about its face. This week, we’re investigating two wonderfully bizarre lesser-known cryptids: the allegedly enormous Oklahoma Octopus and the tragically damp Squonk. We dig into where these stories came from, what evidence actually exists, and why a cryptid does not have to be biologically real to become culturally immortal.

⚠️ Content Warning: Brief discussion of drowning deaths and water-safety statistics.

👀 Sneak Peek

🐙 The suspiciously modern origins of the Oklahoma Octopus

😭 The Squonk’s tear-soaked place in Pennsylvania lumberjack folklore

🔍 Why cryptid stories survive even without scientific evidence

❓ Question for the Comments: Would proof of one cryptid make every other cryptid more believable?
