We cannot guarantee that you will not be cursed after listening to this episode, we can guarantee that you will have a great time and enjoy every minute of listening though. 

Yes, we've been gone for over a month, yes, we missed you too, Yes, it was because Alissa was cursed.

She shared her tales of insane calamity that have ensued these past few weeks. 

Britt dives into stories of cursed tombs including the curse of King Tut’s tomb, the cursed tomb of King Casimir of Poland, and the unproven but certainly possible curse of Qin Shi Huang.

Alissa shares curses about given by upset tenants, cursed necklaces, paintings, and cars. 

Curses everywhere!

In this week's episode its Britt's turn to take over the show and warm Alissa's cold little heart with touching tales of loved one's reaching out from beyond the grave.

From dead birds and shiny dimes to red cardinals and fluttering butterflies, there are many signs and symbols that folks associate with a visit from their deceased loved ones. Britt shares the object that her dad leaves behind to let her know he is close by and some of the unusual places she has found said object. This leads Alissa to startling revelation of her own.

Britt continues to charm and chill with a tale of an evening visitor looking for someone with a familiar name and a sign from the dead 40 years in the making. She wraps up the episode with an absolutely spine-tingling tale of a nurse whose young patient alerts her to the presence, and names of some spirits she could not possibly know. 

This episode reads like an edition of Chicken Soup for the Soul. So, snuggle up, settle down, and enjoy.

SkeleTales is shaking it up this week with an Alissa only episode. This was completely planned and not due to Britt reading any text messages wrong.
Alissa brings to the table bone rattling tales that take place over the phone. These phantom phone calls will have you gasping with goosebumps.
She shares a story about mysterious calls for Tanya. Who is Tanya? No one will ever know because she mysteriously disappeared from the scene of an accident that happens right near the home of the calls.
The next tale has our writer still scratching his head as a mystery caller calls his mother from his number to say "John (her husband) is dead". Not only is John not dead, but the call never shows on their phone as being placed.
When a 911 dispatcher receives a strange call with moaning, a tv, and strange crackling, they immediately send out officers. Upon their arrival however, nothing is at the house as there isn't a house there at all, as it had burned down years prior.
When your mother calls, it's usually a familiar sound, but when your mother's familiar voice calls you and she's recently passed, what do you do. Find out why this deceased mom was talking about June.
Lastly, Alissa ends with a story of nightly 3am phone calls with a creepy voice talking on the other end. If this isn't creepy enough, we learn that half the time, the phone wasn't even plugged in.
Oh and ducks, crows, and rotatory phones.

Join the party of a lifetime where kids remember their past lifetimes and are kind enough to share.
We hear a tale about a young boy who remembers when he was a 50 year old man being in the twin towers during 9/11.
Alissa shares a fascinating tale of a young lad who was given a necklace in his past life only to miraculously find it in his current life.
Britt shares a devastating story of a kid who remembers drowning as an adult. She remembers that she had a baby of her own, a dog, a husband and a friend who watched her drown.
Speaking of drowning, Alissa found a child who was certain they were a passenger on the Titanic when it sunk all those years ago. Ironically, they actually had relatives who had drowned onboard the ship.
Speaking of past life family members, Britt shares a tale of a young baby who is very likely the reincarnate of her great great aunt. She remembered her parents who just happened to be her mom's great grandparents.
When a little boy keeps telling everyone he is actually a little black girl, his parents are not only supportive but ask all the questions and do the right thing by telling us their story.
Britt takes a dark turn when she shares a tale of a young boy who is so grateful for her current mommy because his old mommy STABBED him to death. 
Alissa finished the episode about a story of a child who remembered how they died in a huge tornado in their past life. They were able to tell their name, where it happened, and when it happened, the best part is all of it actually did happen just like they said!

This will make you feel a lot better about missing out on your spring break vacation this year.

The ladies share tales of vacation horrors of the likes you wish to never encounter.

Alissa starts off the episode with a story of a young kid vacationing on the Texas coast in Galveston. He's awoken by a young girl sharing a bed with him and his brother. He thinks it's his little sister and tells her to get up. She listens and leaves the bed.
The next morning he discovers his sister was never in his bed.
We then discover that the Hotel Grand Galvez, is littered with paranormal happenings including one such tale of 90 orphans who were killed by a hurricane in the early 1900s and who like to regularly stay at the hotel.

Britt shares a story from the Mermaid Inn in Rye of a person just trying to go to sleep and a ghost who refuses to let this happen. Noise machines turning on and off, squeaky beds, hangers jangling, wardrobes banging, and handprints appearing on the pillow.
Eventually they learn the trick for the following nights, just get drunk.

You think after you go on vacation to a haunted place, you'll be safe once you're home. Well, Alissa has a story that will have you believe otherwise. 

Britt tops off the night with a tale from Byron when he visited Niagara Falls back in the 60's. It involves a little girl's dog, an Uncle with a great New York accent, and a dramatic twist of fate.

Looking for an excuse not to go to work tomorrow?

We got you covered. 

These tales from the workplace will make you too freaked out to possibly even begin to think about going to work ever again.

Our first story begins in the 70’s where a young man finds a great job in Chicago but right before he’s meant to leave, he has a terrible accident and is unable to go. Fate stepped in though because his would-have-been boss turned out to be none other than John Wayne Gacy.

Alissa leaves our jaws on the floor with her stories from Pascagoula, Mississippi. They involve time warps, ghosts, ufos, folklore, and more! 

Britt regails a tale of a Hallmark store from the 90’s and a bored, possibly lonely dad who just can’t get enough Precious Moments.

While cleaning a locked hallway, we hear in Alissa’s story, how they are greeted with a young child dressed in dated clothing. Was it a ghost or a kid really good at breaking into late night empty hallways?

Britt breaks all of our hearts and makes us rush to turn on the lights when she shares a tale of someone working in a lab at Virginia Tech who encounters a spirit from the tragedy that took place there in 2007.  

The evening is wrapped up with a horrifying and kind of delightful tale of a real estate photographer who photographs all sorts of haunted houses but one basement in particular really give him the goose bumps.

In honor of St. Patrick's Day this week's episode brings tales of murder,  mystery, mayhem and hauntings from the on the Emerald Isle of Ireland. And may be one story from a nearby Isle. 

There is nothing more Irish than a haunted pub and Cavanaugh's Pub in Dublin may be the most haunted of them all. Built adjacent to a cemetery, digging up dirt from the graveyard and throwing it against the side of the pub is a favorite pastime of customers. It may come as no surprise that this bar is haunted AF. 

The ghosts of Northern Ireland are a bit more agressive and have been known to slap the bejesus out of people. At least that's the ghost that haunts 91 Beechmont Grove's favorite thing to do. She is described as a Victorian woman wearing a black dress and she does not mess around.

The Maiden Tower isn't just a rad name for an 80s hair band, it's also the name of the brothel run by accused  witch Dorcus "Darkey"  Kelley, the focus of Britt's second story. According to legend, Darkey got mixed up with a a member of the Hellfire Club, a devil worshipping secret society for18th century playboys and it cost her her life. To this day she is seen quietly walking the streets of Dublin.

And then for the last story, it's just a hop skip and a jump over the pond to the Irishish country of England and a pub with links to Jack the Ripper. Something unholy is happening in the basement and one bartender isn't sticking around to find out what the entity wants.

Happy Saint Patricks Day and Top of the Evening to you!

Alissa travels the globe to come to the land of Britt, aka Portland, so the team decides to share the haunts of the town that somehow involve a lot of strippers, prostitutes, and scary little girls.

In this episode, you’ll hear a first person story about a strange encounter near an iconically creepy location, The Witch's Castle and the dark past that haunts the lands today.

Another iconic haunted location is McMenamins White Eagle Saloon that is littered with ghosts and paranormal activity. One such story involves a lurking cowboy shadow that enters a couple’s room as they try to sleep.

We hear of an evil farm boy who chases an unsuspecting Portland girl in her car only to discover this farm boy has been dead for over 100 years.

The Lone Fir Cemetery in Portland is notoriously haunted with the living and the dead. We hear of a story about a possible ghost or man on PCP, a person dressed in goth attire berating cemetery guests, and apparitions of Emma Merlotin, a murdered prostitute who is seen carrying a hatchet, the weapon that was used to kill her.

The evening is topped off with a story of a haunted aquarium store here in Portland with the EVP of a little girl to prove it.
