    168: Conflicting Stories & Missing Pieces (Death Valley #2)
    Apr 30 2026

    Research and Rabbit Holes for The Dead Files “Death Valley” (Season 2 Episode 19) which aired May 17, 2013.


    This week we’re back in Death Valley Junction—but this time, we’re going deeper. Like… five days of rabbit holes deeper.

    In part two of this three-part series, we leave the recap behind and dive headfirst into the history of the Amargosa Opera House and Hotel… and things get complicated fast.

    We uncover the origins of the property as a 1920s mining hub built to impress investors (for a booming industry that lasted… about three years), complete with dormitories, a cafe, a general store, and—yes—an infirmary that the show barely touched on.

    From there, we follow the story of how the place sat abandoned for decades before ballerina Marta Becket arrived in 1967 and quite literally adopted it—painting her own audience on the walls and performing for them when no one else showed up. (We love her. We would die for her.)

    But then… things take a turn.

    We dig into what may have really happened with Rich and Mary Lee—because despite what the show implies, it doesn’t seem like ghosts are the only reason they left. There are power struggles, conflicting stories, a very suspicious letter that may or may not have actually been written by Marta, and just enough missing information to make everything feel a little… off.

    So, grab your refrigerator yogurt (labeled it so Terry from accounting doesn’t take it) and join us where… The Activity Continues.

    Recapping The Dead Files “Death Valley” (Season 2 Episode 19) which aired May 17, 2013.This is the first episode in our three-part series based on this episode of The Dead Files.In this episode, we switch things up and go back to our roots—Amy watches the episode and recaps it for Megan, who comes in completely blind (and highly caffeinated). What starts as a simple desert haunting quickly turns into a “wait… what is this place?” situation. We talk about the bizarre reality of Death Valley Junction—a “town” that is basically just one property, an opera house, and a hotel sitting in the middle of nowhere. Amy Allan is immediately overwhelmed, Steve asks the important questions (and misses a few obvious ones… looking at you, Dracula nails), and we spiral into discussions about scratches, ghostly bed-sitters, and whether older skin is just out here betraying us. There are tangents (of course), including our old recording habits, late-night exhaustion, and the realization that we’ve always been like this… we’re just better at editing it now.Also: ring shots, reservoirs, and the very real possibility that this entire place is just… off. So, grab your coffee (before we have to take another break to refill it) and join us where… The Activity Continues.

    166: Yellow-Bellied Sapsucker Headache
    Apr 2 2026
    This week we’re recapping The Dead Files “Buried” (Season 14, Episode 11) which originally aired February 3, 2023. Amy and Megan close out their Ohio series with a case that somehow includes: teachers recommending paranormal investigators, a basement ghost who apparently runs a burial service, and one very stressed nine-year-old who just wants to go back to being a “playful boy.” Along the way, we discuss the truly wild moment when Kingston’s teachers tell his mom she should call The Dead Files, debate whether ghost kids are ever a good sign (spoiler: absolutely not), and wonder why Steve always asks clients if they’ve been “taking any weed.” We also tackle the real mysteries of the episode, like why the show suddenly discovered drone shots, why Word absolutely refuses to learn how to spell Steve DiSchiavi, and how a ghost can apparently keep burying the same victim over and over while yelling “stay dead.” Plus: woodpecker headaches, ghost LEGO buddies, purse-strap demonstrations, basement dread, and a brief but passionate discussion about woodpeckers that absolutely nobody asked for. PonderIf a ghost is trying to keep their victim quiet by repeatedly burying them in the basement… does that mean the haunting is less about revenge and more about covering up a crime that refuses to stay buried?WitnessBoth Amy and Megan try to explain things that they have no business explaining.Weigh-InIf your child’s teachers told you they think your kid is seeing ghosts… and suggested you call paranormal investigators…would you be relieved someone believes them, or immediately start looking for a new school? So grab your bird-watching book and join us where…The Activity Continues. Content Warning: In this episode we mention child death in history (fire), so please consider before listening. But if you watch The Dead Files, you should be fine. Also we swear.Chapter Markers 00:00:49 Hello!00:01:33 Housekeeping00:02:53 Overview of “Buried”00:07:07 Segment One – The Set Up00:12:11 Side Quest: Woodpecker of a Headache00:16:29 Side Quest: Besties!00:24:57 Calling Editors of TDF00:26:21 Segment Two – Diggin’ Tru00:44:58 Segment Three – The Reveal00:54:22 Research & Rabbit Holes01:07:13 Side Quest: Dances with Wolves01:08:18 Kent State Ghost Story01:11:59 Outro/DisclaimerEpisode links:East Cleveland Police in trubs: https://fox8.com/news/3-former-east-cleveland-officers-sentenced-to-prison/Molly Petelinker’s grave: https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/160820037/molly-petelinkarLake View/Collinwood School https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collinwood_school_fireKent State Today: https://www.kent.edu/today/news/flash-kent-state-ghost-storyTop 10 most haunted places in Ohio: https://trip101.com/article/haunted-places-in-ohioOur Woodpecker Ts: https://www.zazzle.com/woodpecker_headache_remedy_t_shirt-256058499501832692Or https://www.redbubble.com/shop/ap/176270054Recommend a Dead Files episode for us to recap (Amy’s spreadsheet): https://www.theactivitycontinues.com/recommend-your-favorite-dead-files-epsiode/The Dead Files Official Podcast: https://pod.link/1642377102 The Activity Continues is a paranormal podcast where soul friends Amy and Megan chat about true crime, ghost stories, hauntings, dreams, and other paranormal stuff including the TV show, The Dead Files.
