Parafiend

Trans-Allegheny is just one of those notoriously haunted places we've all heard of. But why is it so haunted? What makes it so famous? Considering the awful abuse that happened within those sandstone walls paired with mental illness, it's no wonder you can still feel and see the trauma from that time.

The White House. It's a place we all know in the US.  It has a long history starting with our very first president. But did you know it is also super haunted? And not just haunted, but plagued by apparitions you wouldn't expect to find in one of the symbols of our country. You won't want to miss this wild and crazy tale. We also dive into two listener tales that we wish never to be a reality. For Video Evidence we watch a video that shows a great example of poltergeist activity in a home. We finish out the episode with a cryptid that loves to swing upside down on branches before snapping the necks of its prey.

Today we're talking about the creepy occurrence of ghost ships! Could you imagine coming across a boat and finding absolutely nothing wrong with it except the ENTIRE crew has vanished into thin air? There are more cases of this happening than makes us comfortable and honestly, we're a little bit afraid of getting on a boat and sailing across the ocean now.

The Colonial Park Cemetery is one of the oldest cemeteries in the United States. In fact, it was a thing before the US was. Between the area seeing massive bloodshed, illness, and other tragedies, it's not difficult to think that this cemetery is overrun with ghosts.  We also dive into two listener tales that are a combination of terrifying and more terrifying. For Video Evidence we watch a video that could possibly show a child entity and... a floating head? We finish out the episode with a cryptid that apparently has a straw for a tongue and has a hunger for unborn children.

Zombies are a combination of terrifying and intriguing. What makes us so interested in the reanimated dead? Where the hell did the idea of zombies come from? And the biggest question: Is it even possible for zombies to become a reality? We also dive into two listener tales that are just out of this world strange. For Video Evidence we watch a video that legit makes us cringe and think about the creeper from Waverly. We finish out the episode with a cryptid that is not only tragic in its past but cannibalistic in its present. Keep those mutant kids away from us. 

We couldn't get the link for this week's video evidence to post here BUT the video will be posted on our social media.

I think  Gettysburg  is a name that most of us in the United States knows. It was the site of the bloodiest battle ever fought in the Civil War. And like with most places with high violence, heavy turmoil, and massive bloodshed, it's also known as one of the most haunted locations in the US. Join us as we go through not only some history of Gettysburg and what took place there over 150 years ago, but also the ghosts that might still be sticking around.

Area 51... such an unusual and mysterious place. It's not just a super secret military base, but also somewhere that could house all the answers to our questions about what's in the universe. Are there really UFOs and aliens there? Or are we just holding onto a false hope? We also dive into two listener tales where one is just out of this world, and the other makes you thankful for potential forest spirits. For Video Evidence we watch an Isabell special that makes her heart swell. It might just be the answer to the question she's been worried about--will her cats stay with her forever? We finish out the episode with a cryptid that loves to not only breathe fake fire, but looks like a chicken/rooster. Weird combo. Way to go fire chicken.
