They Don't Stay Dead episodes

  • Episode 41: Glenbarr Homestead and Werribee Mansion

    ***WARNING*** scary episode ahead...listen at your own risk.

    Is this our spookiest episode yet? It's certainly Brit's favourite episode to date.

    Alexa absolutely freaks Brit out with the tale of "The Crawler" and Brit spooks Alexa out for days with a haunting image of a priest...possibly the most convincing ghost ever captured on camera?

    As always, Alexa brings the goods with her not so horror movie "Horror Movie Review".

  • Episode 39: Parramatta Girls Home and St John's Orphanage

    ***Content warning: assault and sexual assault against minors***
    Hey Paranormies,
    This is a very bleak episode. We cover some heavy topics and this content may not be suitable for all listeners. If you choose to skip this episode but want to stay for the horror movie reviews, skip ahead to 40m and 47s.

    This week Alexa covers the horrifying history of Parramatta Girls Home and the truly remarkable survivors and Brittany find outs that maybe St John's Orphanage isn't as haunted as it's made out to be.

    Alexa gives a very entertaining horror movie review.

    This weeks episode we cover some haunted museums!

    We've got a story about a non-believer turned believer, ghosts that disappear into walls like homer in the hedges, and feet in formaldehyde...?

    It's spooky, it's historic, and best of all, it's silly.

    We hope you have a bottle of wine handy, cause you're gonna need to pour yourself a glass while listening to this ep. It's a ghost a wine pairing.

  • Episode 34: The Hauntings of Port Adelaide - Part 1

    Is this THE most haunted place in Australia? The sheer amount of haunted buildings in one location is so insane that we'll be covering it over two episodes. So settle in for part one of The hauntings of Port Adelaide. There's some opera singing at the police station, old men locking you out of your hotel room and many boys in the basement.

  • Episode 33: Lady in White and La Llorona

    It's a rootinest tootinest episode this week.

    In honour of women, we decided to cover some pretty gruesome female spirits.

    Underneath all that rage, grudges and murder are some fierce women who just want to love as much as they can...so much so that they kill innocent children. Won't somebody please think of the children.

    Among the chaos, Alexa tells us of the time she visited a museum in a desert where her and her friend were the only patrons...

    Buckle up Paranormies. It's a wild ride.

  • Episode 32: Lake George & Albany's Bays

    Do you like to swim?
    We're coming at you with some haunted waters this episode. There will be a little bit of mystery solving and a tragic tale. As well as a friendly ghost!
