Paranormal Postcards is back with haunted stories that range from unsettling hotel sightings to strange activity in a farmhouse attic. This volume pulls together stories that sit right on that line between “maybe there’s an explanation” and “absolutely not.”

We get eerie childhood apparitions, a story that turns a Disney trip into a nightmare, and the kind of personal paranormal experiences that stick with people for years.

The Axeman of New Orleans is one of those cases where the real history is already unsettling enough, and then the folklore kicks the door open with jazz hands. This week, we’re stepping into 1918–1919 New Orleans, where a series of attacks, limited forensic tools, frightened neighborhoods, and one extremely dramatic letter turned an unsolved case into a legend that still refuses to stay neatly in the true crime box.

⚠️ Content Warning: Historical violent attacks, death, and brief discussion of injuries.

👀 Sneak Peek

🪓 The Axeman attacks and why New Orleans residents were so afraid

🎷 The infamous letter claiming jazz music could spare people

🕵️ Suspects, theories, copycat possibilities, and investigation gaps

👻 How the case shifted from true crime into folklore and demon-coded weirdness

❓ Question for the Comments: Would you want to know who committed a famous unsolved case if you could never prove it?

EVPs, or electronic voice phenomena, sit right where paranormal investigation and human perception get messy: a voice appears on playback that no one heard in the room. In this episode, we’re getting into what EVPs are, where the idea came from, why ghost hunting shows made them so famous, and why people still argue over them.

We look at both sides: the believer case for possible spirit communication and the skeptical case for auditory pareidolia, suggestion, and plain old audio weirdness. Then we listen to real EVP examples and see what we hear before the labels, captions, and spooky context get in our heads.

⚠️ Content Warning

Brief mention of difficult family dynamics, anxiety around silence, and end-of-life language in a paranormal context.

👀 Sneak Peek

🎧 What EVPs actually are, and why they are different from disembodied voices

📼 The early EVP history behind Attila von Szalay, Raymond Bayless, Friedrich Jürgenson, and Konstantin Raudive

👻 How Ghost Hunters, Project Fear, and paranormal TV turned EVPs into must-have investigation evidence

🧠 Why auditory pareidolia and suggestion make EVPs so creepy, compelling, and wildly debatable

❓ Question for the Comments

Which clip stood out the most? What did you hear before we told you what it said? And does it sound clear, or do you just think it’s spooky audio chaos?

Not My Ghost, Not My Problem hits its 100th episode with a special Paranormal Postcards episode featuring listener ghost stories, paranormal encounters, haunted stories, and supernatural stories from the ghosties. To celebrate the milestone, Jen and Kelly bring Joel on for creepy submissions, a draft of a paranormal investigation team, and the kind of chaotic energy that somehow ends with the recording itself feeling haunted.

This episode is part celebration, part listener-story roundup, and part “did that seriously just happen on mic?” moment. From cemetery messages and protective spirits to Elias moving, strange sounds in Kelly’s house, and Joel fully losing it in real time, the 100th episode turns into exactly the spooky, skeptical, wildly unsupervised milestone this podcast deserves.

Mermaid legends and mermaid sightings have followed humans across oceans, cultures, and centuries, from ancient water spirits to sailors’ reports and modern shoreline encounters. In this episode, we look at why these stories keep surfacing, what patterns show up again and again, and why the ocean still leaves room for questions.

We’re talking ancient Assyrian myth, sirens, Mami Wata, rusalki, ningyo, selkies, the Kiryat Yam mermaid sightings, Zimbabwe dam reports, and one eerie night-fishing story from Reddit. Basically, are mermaids real, are people misidentifying sea life, or are we all just one weird splash away from spiraling?

👀 Sneak Peek

🌊 Ancient mermaid legends from Assyria, Greece, West Africa, Slavic folklore, Japan, and Scotland

🧜‍♀️ Modern mermaid sightings from Kiryat Yam, Zimbabwe, and remote shorelines

🎣 A creepy night-fishing story involving singing in the dark and absolutely no chill

The Green Children of Woolpit is one of medieval England’s strangest unsolved mysteries: two green-skinned children reportedly appeared near a wolf pit in 12th-century Suffolk, speaking an unknown language and refusing every food except raw fava beans.

In this episode, we dig into the historical accounts, the world these children supposedly stepped into, and the theories that try to explain them, from illness and lost Flemish children to fairy lore, underground worlds, and parallel dimensions. The weirdest part is not that there are theories. It is that none of them fully works.

⚠️ Content Warning

Mentions of child death and historical violence.

👀 Sneak Peek

🟢 Two mysterious green children appear in medieval Woolpit with no clear explanation

📜 Two medieval chroniclers record the story, but their versions do not fully match

🧚 Theories range from medical explanations and Flemish orphans to fairy realms, underground civilizations, and parallel worlds

Spirit attachment, haunted apartment, mimic voice, and protective paranormal warnings are at the center of this episode as Kelly’s daughter Emily shares what happened after she moved out of her haunted childhood home. In part two, her story shifts from growing up with unexplained activity to dealing with strange experiences in adulthood, including unsettling activity her boyfriend also noticed and moments that felt less like a haunting and more like a warning.

What makes this one hit harder is that the experiences do not seem tied to just one house. Emily talks through the possibility of a protective presence, the way activity seemed to react to her relationships, and two deeply unnerving situations where her instincts, or something around her, seemed to alert her to danger.

⚠️ Content Warning: Brief discussion of mental health struggles, death related to substance use, stalking fears, and possible attempted break-in.

Sneak Peak

👻 Emily shares what happened when the activity seemed to follow her after she moved out of the haunted house

🚪 Emily and others around her experience unexplained knocking, watched feelings, and a voice that seems to mimic her

⚠️ A presence that may be attached to Emily starts to feel less threatening and more protective, especially when danger is nearby

🚘 The episode builds to a terrifying encounter outside her apartment that changes how she interprets everything that came before

Growing up in a haunted house is one thing. Growing up haunted is another. In this episode, Kelly’s daughter, Emily, joins us to talk about what it was like growing up in her family’s haunted house, the strange activity that felt normal to her as a kid, and the early signs that whatever was there may not have been tied to the house alone.

From shadow figures and ghostly pets to the feeling of never really being alone, this is a personal family story about living with the unexplained. If you love haunted house episodes with real history, family perspective, and the unsettling possibility of a spirit attachment, this one sets the stage for all of it.

⚠️ Content Warning: Brief discussion of grief, trauma, mental health, and unsettling paranormal experiences.

Some mysteries stick around because they are terrifying. Others stick around because they are just plain weird. This one is both. In this episode, we’re digging into the bizarre footage that launched the Fresno Nightcrawlers into cryptid legend, plus the theories, the follow-up sightings, and the reason these strange little walking pants still have people arguing all these years later.

🎥 Watch the full episode on YouTube.

CONTENT WARNING: Brief discussion of stalking, attempted assault/abduction, and trauma.

Episode Highlights

👖 One piece of footage that is way too short and way too weird

📹 A second sighting that only makes the mystery messier

👽 Theories that range from practical effects to full-on alien nonsense

The Dixie House sits in St. Augustine with a history that doesn’t scream “haunted” at first glance — but the stories inside it do. We were told there are multiple spirits tied to the house, including a child spirit in the bathroom, a haunted doll kept sealed away, and even a possible portal. There’s also a claim that the house is connected to one of St. Augustine’s most notoriously haunted sites, which raises the question: is this place active on its own… or part of something bigger? So we booked a two-hour private investigation and went in.

🎥 Watch the full episode on YouTube.

Episode Highlights

👁️ The big claims: spirits, a doll, and a possible portal

🧰 The gear: what it’s designed to detect and what it can’t prove

🕯️ The investigation: what happened when we tried to separate creepy from credible
