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.

On this episode we chat about our time in The Roff House, a horror con where we learned William Shatner's beauty secrets, True Crime news, our home town Chicago Pope, the difference between a hot dog and a polish sausage, our favorite M. Night Shyamalan movies, and so much more that we honestly can't list it all here!

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.
