This week Amy is recapping “Double Jeopardy” which is from Season 4 Episode 7 of The Dead Files. This one involved the Glen Tavern Inn and its owner who is obsessed with the property.

Note: Megan’s mic was turned around again, so if the sound is tinny for you, just wait a little, it clears up. About 16 minutes in. 

We talk about Amy’s sweet little puppy murdering a rabbit, a new ghost story, and there’s an update on the Bathroom portal. Amy’s friend’s crazy ass dream. We also discuss being Blair Witched by a TikTok user and one way Amy can be lured into a van (and it’s not with a puppy).

This week Amy is recapping “Evil Comes Home” which is from Season 11 Episode 6 of The Dead Files.

Content Warning: Serial abduction, rape, and murder, dismemberment, suicide by hanging (in history). Amy talks about a friend who passed by drowning. Also, we swear. 

We also talk about Amy Allan in an old TV show and we speculate on the future of The Dead Files. We also talked about a LOT of other stuff. Ghosts chasing people up the stairs. Staying in the Overlook (Stanley) hotel. Can a ghost be in two places at once?

Do you lock the door to keep out the murderers, or unlock it so you can get away from the ghosts?

 

It should not come as a shock to any of our listeners, that we did not stay on track very well at all. This was a lesson in stream of consciousness conversations.

 

There was some discrepancy in this one related to what Amy Allan saw and who the show decided these ghosts were.

We practiced Astral Travel (practice is the key word, it didn’t work). What happens when empaths watch true crime shows. Potential serial killers in the Midwest and why won’t the police and news media cover it?

Last call to join our Patreon in time for our April Virtual Happy Hour! https://www.patreon.com/theactivitycontinues

Content Warning: Gruesome things done to slaves in the 1800s, a war, and rebellion. Also, we swear.

 We also talked about TV shows we’re digging, authors we like, some paranormal or at least mystical stuff that happened to us in the past week, and Megan’s damn laptop camera going goofy again (title of your sex tape---just kidding title of Megan’s memoir).

We get existential about Exit Points for a bit...

We also lightly touched on the hubbub in the paranormal world with people speaking out about a particular investigator. The things we said are OUR opinions only!

Megan talks about how she sabotages her own workouts (spoiler alert, it has to do with undies). Amy’s upcoming vacation ideas and Megan’s genealogy research.
