The Titanic has sunk, the band has stopped playing, and now we’re diving headfirst into the aftermath. From sensational headlines to deep sea dreams, we’re unpacking the chaos, conspiracies, and the hunt for that big boat at the bottom of the Atlantic. Grab your life vest, because this ride is just as wild as the iceberg that started it all.

Where were you on October 15th, 2009? Were you like Nicole, probably tuned into MTV’s Real World/Road Rules Challenge? Or like Noelle (and the rest of America), glued to the news, holding your breath as a silver, UFO-shaped balloon floated over Colorado with a child supposedly inside? Noelle brings us the story of the Heene family’s bizarre grab for fame that floated straight into infamy.

In Part Two of the Enfield Poltergeist, we unravel the bizarre final chapter of the haunting that captivated the world. We explore the unsettling family history of paranormal investigator Maurice Grosse and the eerie emergence of "Bill Wilkinson," the disembodied voice that chilled even the most skeptical minds. As the activity fades, we’re left questioning what was real, what was imagined, and what may still linger.

What began as an ordinary, semi-detached council house at 284 Green Street in Enfield, London, would soon become one of the most infamous haunted locations in the UK.  In part 1 we uncover the eerie beginnings of the haunting that shook a quiet London suburb in 1977. Mysterious knocks, levitating furniture, and terrified witnesses set the stage for one of the most famous paranormal cases in history.

This week, Noelle shares a story from 1943, when four young boys entered the woods in a small town near Birmingham, England, and discovered something horrific wedged inside the trunk of a tree. A year later, incriminating graffiti appeared, reading “Who Put Bella in the Wych Elm?”—a haunting question tied to a mystery that remains unsolved to this day.

Welcome to our 200th episode! ...sort of... This week we're taking a trip up north to CANADA, eh, as we dive into the mysterious Shag Harbour UFO incident of 1967. Canada’s most compelling and well-documented UFO case and what some call Canada's Roswell. From eyewitness accounts and official RCMP reports to military searches and deep-sea anomalies, we unravel the layers of this unexplained event.

In this episode, Noelle brings us the eerie and unsettling phenomenon known as "The Call of The Void"—that strange impulse to jump when standing near a cliff or bridge. We explore the psychology behind this paradoxical urge and discuss why it's more common than you might think. Join us as we discuss the mysteries of this haunting yet fascinating aspect of the human mind.
