Live From The John Proctor House with Barb Bridgewater & Friends Jun 21, 2021

Show notes

Barbara Bridgewater saw the John Proctor House on the morning news and was fascinated. She knew she had to try to purchase it. She contacted the agent & put in an offer. The rest is history. She bought it for the historical significance of it. She didn’t know that it had spirit energy (haunted 👻). Today we have something a little different for you. Today we are recording from the John Proctor House. Why does that name sound familiar? You might be asking yourself, If you’ve read Arthur Miller’s The Crucible, a fictionalized version of Salem’s infamous witch hysteria, you may be familiar with Proctor’s story. Joining Barb is show friend, author Rebecca F. Pittman and Salem tour guide Courtney Buckley. Plus an all new Ghost Report from Lisa Morton!

Don’t Mock The Dybbuk Box with Jason Haxton May 03, 2021

Show notes

Today’s guest is Jason Haxton. Jason is the former Dibbuk Box owner and is the Director of the Museum of Osteopathic Medicine in Kirksville, Missouri. He has studied American antiques and ancient artifacts for the past 26 years, collected and researched Mayan pottery for his thesis in the humanities, and has lectured on art history, paranormal & ancient art for 6 years at a mid-size liberal arts university. After he bought the dybbuk box, he launched a website that consolidated claims about the cabinet called "dibbukbox.com" that reportedly received hundreds of thousands of hits and created what has been described as an "internet legend". In 2004, Haxton sold the rights to the story to a Hollywood production company. The subsequent film The Possession, produced by Sam Raimi, was released in 2012. In 2011, he wrote a book about his experiences called the Dybbuk box and Haxton later gave the cabinet to Ghost Adventures star Zak Bagans to display in his museum. In 2018, rapper Post Malone claimed a string of bad luck was caused by his contact with the cabinet. So, How and why did Jason acquire the dybbuk box? What happened to him while he had it? What does he have to say to those who call it a hoax? Does he have any other haunted artifacts? All this and a brand new Ghost Report from Lisa Morton on this week's episode of Ghost Magnet!

The Dead History With Jennifer Jones Apr 26, 2021

Show notes

This weeks guest is Jennifer Jones. Jennifer says she read a quote that said everyone has at least one weird friend, and if you don't know who it is, it's probably you. That pretty much sums up her life. She’s always been a weirdo and proud of it! When she was about 8 or 9 years old, she saw what she can only describe as your typical shadow person apparition. From that point on, she was hooked on all things paranormal and creepy. Since 2006 she has been actively investigating and researching the history behind haunted places, urban legends, and high strangeness in general. She started her blog The Dead History in 2012 and since then has written the book The Ghosts of Ogden, Brigham City, and Logan, UT and also recently included in the all-female paranormal journal, The Feminine Macabre. When she’s not researching and writing she can usually be found at home making creepy miniatures. All this and an all new Ghost Report with Lisa Morton on this week’s episode of Ghost Magnet with Bridget Marquardt.

The Stanley Hotel's Resident Paranormal Investigator Callea Sherrill Apr 19, 2021

Show notes

This weeks guest is Callea Sherrill. Callea is probably best known for her role as Resident Paranormal Investigator at the legendary Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, Colorado. While working at the hotel, she appeared on numerous TV shows and radio programs including Ghost Adventures, Ghost Hunters Academy, and Coast to Coast Radio. She grew up in a house with activity which led to her interest in the spirit world and, eventually, to an active involvement in the study of the paranormal. Over the past 15 years, she has traveled across the country investigating many of the more famous haunted locations. The Stanley Hotel has come up many times on our show and I am excited to get more into it today with someone who probably knows it better than almost anyone! All this and an all new Ghost Report with Lisa Morton on this week’s episode of Ghost Magnet with Bridget Marquardt.
