Episode 36 of The Dancing Toaster take us to Campbelltown, Australia. In 1826, farmer Fred Fisher vanished. Weeks later a terrified witness claimed Fisher’s ghost sat on a bridge and pointed toward a creek. A police search uncovered Fisher’s buried remains, and neighbor George Worrall was convicted. This episode unpacks the facts behind the legend, and how folklore welded itself to a murder case, and why the annual Festival of Fisher’s Ghost keeps the story alive. Along the way, we compare similar “ghosts for justice” tales like the Greenbrier Ghost of West Virginia. We'll weigh evidence against rumor, and explore a biblical lens for how hidden truths can come to light.

In episode 35 of the Dancing Toaster we dive into the case of: The Enfield Poltergeist.

It remains one of the most infamous paranormal cases in modern history. In the late 1970s, the Hodgson family of North London found themselves at the center of a storm of strange disturbances—knocks that followed from room to room, furniture sliding on its own, toys flying like shrapnel, and the chilling voice of “Bill Wilkins” speaking through eleven-year-old Janet. Investigators, neighbors, journalists, and even police officers witnessed events they could not explain, while skeptics pointed to trickery and stress within the family. Was it a haunting, a hoax, or something darker masquerading as the dead? The case became so iconic that decades later it was dramatized in The Conjuring 2, cementing its place in pop culture and introducing the haunting of Green Street to a new generation. But behind the Hollywood spectacle lies a much more complicated, and perhaps more sinister, reality. In this episode of The Dancing Toaster, we dive deep into the chaos of Enfield, peeling back the layers of deception, grief, and spiritual danger that made it a story still debated to this day.

In Part 2 of Esther Cox and the Great Amherst Mystery, we return to Nova Scotia to examine the disturbing aftermath of one of the most controversial hauntings in North American history. Esther’s life spiraled after a traumatic event, followed by violent poltergeist activity, mysterious voices, and messages from unseen forces. But was she truly possessed, or simply used by those around her for money and fame? This episode explores biblical parallels to Esther's case, including the spirit of divination in Acts 16, the dangers of Mesmerism, and the spiritual implications of trauma. What happened to Esther may have been more than psychological. It may have been a spiritual war with no one to fight for her.

We explore the origins of The Dancing Toaster, the Max Payne-inspired narration, and the pastoral heart that beats behind every chilling episode. This isn’t just about ghost stories, it’s about reclaiming the supernatural worldview the Bible never gave up. If you’ve ever wondered how horror, humor, and holiness could mix, this is the episode for you. Come meet the man behind the toaster.

What started as a creepy eBay listing from a Portland seller in 2003, The Dybbuk Box, became one of the most infamous haunted objects of the 21st century. But what if the real danger was never inside the box at all? In this episode, we trace the full story from its original eBay listing to the viral legend it became, uncovering layers of folklore, Jewish mysticism, and theological error along the way. Was it a cursed relic, a clever hoax, or a spiritual snare built from belief, fear, and ritual? This episode examines the Dybbuk Box’s strange legacy through a biblical lens and asks a sobering question: can a lie become a doorway?

In Episode 31 of The Dancing Toaster, we dive into the eerie true story of Don Decker, a Pennsylvania inmate who walked out of jail for his grandfather’s funeral—and seemingly brought a supernatural storm with him. What began as a quiet act of compassion unraveled into an unexplainable series of paranormal events involving levitation, water pouring from ceilings, police officers witnessing impossible rainfall, and crucifixes that burned on contact. Was Don a victim of demonic possession, unresolved trauma, or something more sinister— something that moved with him from house to pizza shop to prison cell? With eyewitness testimony from law enforcement, landlords, and clergy, this episode explores one of the strangest modern hauntings on record and asks the question: what happens when a broken heart becomes a doorway for something dark?

In 1950s Greece, a hilltop monastery promised healing, holiness, and hope for the desperate. But inside its whitewashed walls, Mariam Soulakiotis—known to her followers as Mother Mariam—was running something far darker. Torture disguised as penance. Starvation sold as salvation. With nearly 500 deaths linked to her cult-like regime, Soulakiotis remains one of history’s most sinister religious figures. In this episode of The Man-Eating Toaster, we peel back the veil on the so-called “Nightmare Nun”—a woman who wore the cross like armor and turned faith into a weapon.
