In this episode, Tony Brueski digs into the haunted history of Harpers Ferry, West Virginia, which is one of America's most blood-soaked and paranormally active small towns. From the bloody conflict of John Brown’s rebellion to Civil War devastation, Harpers Ferry has been steeped in trauma, death, and inexplicable phenomena for over two centuries.  We’ll uncover the town’s chilling legends, hear about encounters with ghostly soldiers and shadowy figures, and examine the theories behind the area’s eerie reputation. Is Harpers Ferry truly a portal for the restless dead—or is something even stranger at work beneath the surface?

She doesn’t knock. She bursts through the front door like she’s been here a thousand times before—rushing upstairs, only to vanish halfway up. Six members of the same family witnessed her, but none could explain who she was or why she came. But this isn’t a ghost in a Victorian gown—this spirit was in a t-shirt and high-waisted shorts, like she stepped out of the late '90s.

From the time he was a child, Kevin Schmitz knew his world was different. Whether it was the glowing blue figure of his grandmother appearing in the dead of night or the unsettling energy of the haunted house he moved into as a teen, Kevin’s life has always been shadowed by the paranormal. But nothing could have prepared him for what came next. After a near-death experience in 2005, Kevin realized his connection to the spirit world was far deeper—and more intense—than he ever imagined. This is Part Two of our conversation.

When Roger and Carolyn Perron moved their five daughters onto a sprawling 200‑acre Rhode Island farm in 1970, the previous owner offered only one piece of advice: “Leave the lights on at night.”

 What followed became one of the most chilling real‑life hauntings ever recorded—later inspiring the blockbuster film The Conjuring. For nearly ten years the Perrons shared their home with entities from every fold of time: mournful children, unseen hands, and the vengeful spirit the family came to call “Bathsheba.” Doors slammed, beds levitated, and history itself seemed to bleed through the walls. In this episode, Andrea Perron—eldest daughter and author of House of Darkness | House of Light—recounts the true events the movie only hinted at: the séances, the midnight battles for control of a mother’s soul, and the moment they finally realized the dead were not leaving.

Join us as we step inside the old Arnold Estate—lights on—and discover what it means to “live among the dead.”

On this episode, we dig into the story of a young girl who spent her teenage years haunted by something, or someone, lurking in the attic of a quiet Pennsylvania home. Strange footsteps, invisible hands, and objects that moved on their own. She was the only one who noticed. The only one who believed it was real.  

But was this a case of heightened sensitivity—or a haunting that chose one voice to be heard through? From shaking beds to vanishing objects, we explore the terrifying line between psychological isolation and genuine paranormal activity. Something followed her through the years… and it may still be listening.

On this episode, Tony Brueski digs into the Omni Grove Park Inn’s fascinating history—from its 1913 construction by pharmacist turned developer Edwin Wiley Grove to its role as a wartime internment site and presidential retreat. Alongside tales of Hollywood glamour and undercover Supreme Court evacuation plans, he uncovers the origins of the Pink Lady—an enigmatic figure whose tragic demise on a fifth-floor balcony gave birth to a century of ghost stories.

Most children outgrow monsters under the bed—this kid just watched them relocate the landscaping. From a shrub that ripped itself out of the soil and strolled across the sidewalk to jump‑rope ghost kids politely waving from the bedroom wall, one Albuquerque duplex became a paranormal playground no adult ever noticed. Add a neon, see‑through Freddy Krueger peering from a floor heater, a mute clown perched on the backyard wall, toys battling gladiator‑style at 3 a.m., and a Lady in White who thought bath time was BYO‑specter, and you’ve got a childhood scrapbook no therapist could label “normal.”
