August 16, 2023 Through a Window: Stories of Spirits in Liminal Spaces
Welcome to the finale of season 8!

There are so many superstitions surrounding windows that imply that they are portals to the spirit world, controlling what energies come and go. But is there any truth in that?After I share true stories where people have looked through a window and caught a glimpse into another realm, I’ll let you decide.

First, I narrate a story about a person who moved into a house that had a history of misfortune. Then, I tell the tale of a college student who had a run in with a nosy neighbor. And finally, I speak with tarot reader Matt Bruce about the various apparitions he’s seen in his life.

July 05, 2023 The Dream Girl and the Dark Figure: Stories from America's Most Haunted Colleges
For those of you who attended college, what was that story that everyone knew? You know, the one you tell all the incoming freshmen to freak them out. The one that you’re almost certain isn’t true - but tell everyone about it anyway. Of course, with stories like these, it’s usually best to take them with a grain of salt. But what if you had experiences that aligned with these rumors? That proved they may not have been completely fictional after all? In today's episode, I speak with people who had.

First, I speak with Adam Murray about his unnerving experiences while attending Chestnut Hill College. Then, Anonymous shares her shocking encounter at Kent State University.
