Episode 10 — Fairies / The Loveland Castle
What if the creatures of fairytales weren't entirely fictional? A few years ago, Derreck witnessed something extraordinary outside his backyard window: a tiny, winged humanoid figure no larger than a dragonfly. Dressed in what appeared to be a leaf-like outfit, the mysterious being resembled a fairy straight out of folklore. But this wasn't Derreck's first encounter with the unexplained. As a child, he recalls seeing the apparition of a young girl through a sliding glass door, later discovering that a child matching her description had died at approximately two years old and was buried in a nearby cemetery.
Joining hosts Michael Paul and Mr. Curbs, Derreck shares his family's unusual connection to Loveland Castle in Ohio, including their ties to its founder, Harry Andrews. He recounts unsettling experiences involving his father's Boy Scout troop, including a mysterious entity with bulging black eyes spotted running up the castle stairs. From ghostly apparitions and fairy sightings to the legendary Loveland Frogman, could this historic castle and its surrounding area hold more mysteries than anyone realizes?
