Ghosties, today we’re pinning up the first red-string threads in our three-part deep dive into Ed and Lorraine Warren. Before the Conjuring-verse turned them into paranormal icons, they were building a reputation piece by piece — through story, strategy, and a very specific kind of authority. We’re examining who they were before fame, how they positioned themselves in the paranormal world, and where the “trust us” narrative begins to become fuzzy. No final verdicts — just receipts, context, and the beginnings of a very deep rabbit hole.

Most people think hauntings are tied to specific places — old houses, dark basements, and creepy hallways. But this episode is about the kind that doesn’t stay put. The kind that shows up after you move, after you “start over,” after you swear you’re finally somewhere new. We’re digging into attachments, energy-feeders, emotional echoes, and the unsettling possibility that some hauntings aren’t about the house at all… they’re about you.

As the final seconds of the year slip into the shadows and everyone collectively lies to themselves about having a “chill” year ahead, we’re cracking open the tarot deck to ask the universe what’s really going on.

In this episode, we wander into the realm of tarot — that delicious crossroads of history, symbolism, intuition, and a little bit of “wow, that card didn’t have to drag us like that.” Then we pull a special New Year’s spread just for the podcast and all you ghosties to see what energy we’re carrying into 2026.

So grab your favorite mug, a cozy blanket, and your tarot deck — and let’s see what the universe has been dying to spill.

Episode Highlights:

🃏 From card game to divination tool: how tarot evolved from a 15th-century pastime into a modern mystical practice.

🕯️ What tarot actually is (and isn’t): symbolism, reflection, and storytelling — not fate, doom, or demonic fine print.

🎴 Breaking down the deck: Major and Minor Arcana, suits, court cards, and what they mirror in everyday life.

🔢 Tarot and numerology: how numbers shape the hidden narrative woven through the cards.

🔮 Our New Year’s spread: what the cards reveal about our growth, our trajectory, and the energy stepping into 2026.

So grab your favorite mug, a cozy blanket, and your tarot deck — and let’s see what the universe has been dying to spill.

The holidays glitter with lights and laughter, but tucked just behind the tinsel is something far older…and far less cheerful. Long before Santa climbed down chimneys, other figures crept through the snow — rattling chains, scratching at doors, and lurking just out of sight.

In this episode, we peel back the shiny wrapping paper and explore the darker side of winter folklore — the ones who don’t bring presents, the ones who punish, stalk, and remind us that the holidays were never meant to be safe.

Episode Highlights

😈 Why Anti-Santa Exists: The harsh realities of winter and the folklore created to keep order and control

⛓️ Krampus & His Kin: Chains, switches, claws, and the shadow lurking beside Saint Nick

👣 Wandering Watchers: Figures like Belsnickel, Perchta, and Knecht Ruprecht who judge, stalk, and punish

🐐 Monsters of the North: Gryla, her terrifying family, and the strange chaos of the Yule Lads

🪵 Mischief & Mayhem: Creatures that don’t just punish — they creep, steal, and disrupt everything in sight

So grab your hot cocoa, a string of lights, and maybe hide the naughty list… because not everyone who visits this winter is coming with gifts.

There are some houses that feel heavy the moment you step inside them — and then there are houses that feel like they’re still holding their breath.

In the quiet town of Villisca, Iowa, an ordinary home became the site of unimaginable violence. One night. One family. Eight lives taken in silence. Over a century later, the walls still seem to whisper, the air still feels charged, and the floorboards still creak like they remember who once walked across them.

In this episode, we step inside the Villisca Axe Murder House — a place shaped by tragedy, tangled in mystery, and rumored to be one of the most haunted homes in the country.

💀 Episode Highlights

🩸 The Night That Changed Everything: A peaceful town. A family asleep. An unspeakable crime that left more questions than answers.

🔍 Suspects & Silence: A traveling preacher, a vengeful businessman, whispers of a serial killer, and an investigation so chaotic the truth may have been buried forever.

🏚️ A House That Remembers: Moving objects, disembodied voices, shifting shadows, unexplained injuries, and the chilling sense that someone… or something… is still there.

🎙️ Voices from the Void: Firsthand accounts of whispers, footsteps, and children’s voices captured on recorders long after the house went quiet.

⚖️ Haunted or Heavy with History?: We explore whether the house is truly haunted… or if the weight of trauma and memory alone can echo for over a century.

So grab your flashlight, a lock for the door, and something comforting to hold onto, and step with us into the Villisca Axe Murder House — where the walls still speak and the night never quite ends.

There are cries that feel like they come from the throat of the earth itself. Not screams. Not warnings. Just pure, hollow grief carried on the wind and tangled in the rush of water. Some say it’s only a story. Others swear they’ve heard her with their own ears — a woman weeping along a riverbank with no one in sight.

In this episode, we follow the legend of La Llorona — born from colonization, shaped by loss, and carried across generations and borders. From ancient goddesses to riverside hauntings, from whispered warnings to modern encounters, we explore how one wailing voice became one of the most enduring spirits in the world.

Episode Highlights

🌊 A Cry Born in History: The roots of La Llorona in Indigenous spirituality, colonization, and cultural trauma

👣 Many Faces, One Wail: How the legend changes across Mexico, the Southwest, Central and South America

🌫️ Encounters at the Water’s Edge: Modern sightings of the woman in white and the chilling consistency of her stories

🎭 From Folklore to Film: How La Llorona moved from oral tradition to pop culture — and what was lost (or transformed) along the way

🧠 Ghost or Grief?: The psychology, symbolism, and collective memory behind one of the world’s most haunting figures

So grab your flashlight, something to ward off wandering spirits, and maybe stay far from the river tonight… and join us as we follow the echo of La Llorona — the weeping woman who never stopped searching.

There’s a kind of silence in the Bridgewater Triangle that doesn’t feel empty. It feels aware — like the ground is listening, like the air is remembering. The swamp holds its breath. The forest watches your back. Even the broken buildings seem to hum with something unfinished.

In this episode, we step into the haunted heart of the Bridgewater Triangle — moving beyond strange sightings and into the places where grief, history, and energy have soaked deep into the land. From whispering ruins to cursed ledges and restless roads, these are the locations that refuse to let their stories die.

💀 Episode Highlights

🌿 The Haunted Heart: A vast swamp and silent lake where shadows, voices, and phantom lights blur the boundary between living and lost.

🪨 Stones That Remember: Ancient rock formations tied to history, tragedy, and unexplained energy that refuses to fade.

🏚️ Echoes in Empty Places: Abandoned ruins, forgotten buildings, and institutions where sound, memory, and presence still linger.

🧗 Edges Between Worlds: Cliff sides and forest paths where disappearances, apparitions, and unexplainable pulls have left their mark.

🚗 The Road That Never Forgets: A phantom hitchhiker, a ghostly truck, and backroads where the past still calls out to passing headlights.

🧠 Haunted or History? We explore what happens when trauma, belief, and environment collide — and whether some places can remember all on their own.

So grab your flashlight, a good luck charm, and maybe someone to walk beside you, and follow us into the Bridgewater Triangle — where the land doesn’t just remember… it answers back.
