TW: This episode discusses suicide - In this emotionally charged episode of Paranormal Playback, Char, Lor, and Mel dive into Ghost Adventures Season 29, Episode 3 as the team returns to the Glen Tavern Inn, a haunted California hotel with a tragic backstory. The investigation centers around Patrick Smith, a psychic featured in a previous Ghost Adventures episode, who died by suicide three months after a chilling seance with the crew. Mel investigates the inn’s lore, debunking myths about brothels and beheaded cowboys, while the team critiques everything from Zach’s dramatics and fingerless gloves to the use of the word “synchronicity.” Despite the heaviness of the topic, the trio maintains their sharp humor, questioning whether the spirits, or the show’s editing, are to blame for the chaos.
