Stories with Saint

On a quiet property in Pennsylvania, a married couple found themselves living in fear. Strange apparitions, unexplained activity, and a chilling local legend pointed to a witch believed to have cursed the land before being buried beneath a tree.

When paranormal investigator Steve Gonsalves and his team arrived, they expected to separate folklore from fact. But historical records uncovered something they hadn't anticipated, and the investigation soon took a turn that brought in cadaver dogs, forensic specialists, and even state police.

Known for his work on Ghost Hunters and Ghost Nation, Steve joins Stories with Saint to share an extraordinary investigation that challenges what we think we know about hauntings—and the stories we tell ourselves about the unexplained.

On a misty night in Asheville, North Carolina, Malorie Mackey and Elizabeth Saint set out to investigate Helen's Bridge, a location surrounded by local legends and stories of paranormal activity.

While filming the first season of Weird World Adventures, the two hoped to make contact with the mysterious woman said to haunt the bridge. But as the night unfolded, their equipment began producing responses that suggested someone else might have been trying to communicate.

It wasn't until they reviewed their recordings afterward that they realized just how much they had missed.

Host, producer, adventurer, and author Malorie Mackey joins Stories with Saint to revisit an investigation they experienced together, sharing the strange encounters, unexpected discoveries, and unsettling moments that continued long after they left the bridge.

You can watch Weird World Adventures on Amazon Prime Video, with a Tubi release coming soon. Malorie is also the author of Haunted Hikes of the Great Smoky Mountains, The Goth Atlas, and Secret Virginia: A Guide to the Weird, Wonderful, and Obscure.

While filming a paranormal investigation in Saginaw, Michigan, Steve Shippy found himself repeatedly drawn to a beautiful but ominous nineteenth-century mansion. One detail was particularly difficult to ignore: the burgundy awning above the entrance that simply read Funeral Home.

When Steve finally contacted the owner, he learned that the house had a disturbing history, and that the family who purchased it had experienced things so frightening they eventually abandoned their home.

Paranormal investigator, award-winning documentary filmmaker, television host, and recording artist Steve Shippy, creator of the Haunted Saginaw film series, host of Haunting in the Heartland, and featured in Paranormal Caught on Camera, joins Stories with Saint to recount what happened when he and his crew entered the property. What began as an investigation into the unexplained became an encounter with a danger none of them anticipated.

Years before appearing on Ghost Hunters, paranormal investigator Richel Stratton visited Malvern Manor in Iowa, where a simple act of kindness may have led to something she never expected.

During an investigation, Richel noticed that the clothing belonging to a former resident named Hank had been tossed into a drawer. So she folded his shirts and hung one in the closet.

A harmless gesture. Or so she thought.

After leaving Malvern Manor, strange things began happening at home. Missing time, conversations she couldn't remember, and unsettling experiences involving her young son left Richel wondering whether something had followed her home.

Richel joins Stories with Saint to share the story of an encounter that began with a few folded shirts and became a chilling reminder that sometimes, leaving a haunted place doesn't mean everything stays behind.

For years, author, musician and cryptid researcher Lyle Blackburn traveled the swamps and forests surrounding Fouke, Arkansas, documenting stories of the legendary creature associated with Boggy Creek.

Then one evening, something happened to him.

After hours spent moving through muddy swamp bottoms, searching for an unusual collection of animal bones, Lyle caught movement in the brush. At first, his mind tried to make it into something familiar: a hog, maybe even another person.

Then it stood upright.

Lyle joins Stories with Saint to tell the story of the encounter he describes as seeing a “living shadow”, and what happens when years of researching the unexplained suddenly become personal.
