We've heard so many scary stories involving Ouija boards over the years. Have you wondered why? What makes them any different than other forms of divination? Are they really as dangerous as many people say?
Well... Yes and No...

The Ohio State Reformatory aka the Mansfield Reformatory has changed a lot over the years, from its storied past to current haunts, this prison has sure seen a lot in its days, even after being closed for almost 30 years.
  So other than being the setting for the most miserable days of some people's lives, why is it haunted... especially since executions weren't done here?

Charles Scudder and Joey Odom were gay, dog lovers, homesteaders, and Satanists.  Unfortunately, a combination of those things can apparently get you killed in rural Georgia in 1982.

please note that a large part of my research revolved around the book "The Corpsewood Manor Murders in North Georgia" by Amy Petulla. you can find the book on Amazon and Kindle and is available on kindle unlimited. some parts were taken verbatim, simply because they were put in such an eloquent way,  it would be doing a disservice to the story by changing the wording. a huge thanks to author Amy Petulla for such a phenomenal book.

Christianity and Witchcraft don't seem to go together, but you might be surprised at just how well they do. I got to sit down and interview a Christian Witch, who is in fact my mom, and we got some of the tough questions answered.

We've all seen this iconic movie, but do you know the true story that inspired William P. Blatty to write the book then later the screenplay for this film?

After all of the feedback from Basic Witches, I wanted to put out this bonus episode to help answer a few questions that I've gotten. So what does Witch mean to you? Where does this power come from? This episode is strictly my opinion, and I look forward to hearing yours!
