Our 2nd Annual Boo Pod Halloween Special  

This week we are switching things up and celebrating Spooky Season with the Boo Pod Network. We are thrilled to be a part of this great network and to have the opportunity to collaborate with some amazing podcasts. The universal theme this year is Urban Legends. So we are presenting urban legends in and around Minnesota.

Amy P (AP) is telling us about Wendigos; Megan is covering Mishipeshu, another creepy creature; and Amy L is telling us all about Grey Cloud Island.

If you’re a Patron, your episode also includes the Kensington Runestone. If you want to become a Patron, please check us out here: https://www.patreon.com/theactivitycontinues

If you watch the video version, at about 53 minutes in look for an orb or something weird on Amy L’s screen.

Content Warning:

Cannibalism, animal abuse/death, suicide by fire in history. We didn’t find anything else we thought deserved a content warning, except that we use colorful language.

The Activity Continues is a podcast where soul sisters, Amy and Megan usually chat about the TV show, The Dead Files. Our other soul sister Amy (AP) keeps us in check with facts, figures, and other fun things. We talk about pets, true crime, ghost stories, haunts, dreams, and other creepy paranormal shit and sometimes we interview really cool people. Whether it be a paranormal professional, a Dead Files client, or a friend with wild stories.

So, grab your beverage of choice, hop in the car, don’t worry, Steve’s driving, and join us when… The Activity Continues.

This episode was recorded on October 16, 2023, and released on October 26, 2023.
