    Ep. 426 - Fort Omaha Mar 10, 2022
    Show notes

    Metropolitan Community College in Omaha, Nebraska has a campus filled with historic buildings because this was once Fort Omaha. This fort's main purpose was to serve troops logistically during the Indian War era and is connected to the landmark Standing Bear v. Crook Case in 1879 in which Native Americans were legally determined as persons under the law. This location also was a place that conducted experiments with dirigibles at the Balloon School. There are multiple ghost stories from Fort Omaha as well. Join us as we explore the history and hauntings of Fort Omaha. The Moment in Oddity features a skeleton walled up at Fort Independence and This Month in History features five letters between John and Abigail Adams. Our location was suggested by David Young.

    Ep. 425 - Hannah House Mar 03, 2022
    Show notes

    The Hannah House in Indianapolis, Indiana was the family home of Alexander Hannah. This home was meant to be a place of refuge for runaway slaves along the Underground Railroad. Tragedy struck when a lantern that a group of the formerly enslaved people were using tipped over. A fire erupted and they were trapped in their hiding place and none survived. Their bodies were more than likely buried on the property. This event has led to hauntings in what is now a museum. Join us as we explore the history and hauntings of the Hannah House. The Moment in Oddity was suggested by John Michaels and features the oldest drawing of a ghost in Babylon and This Month in History features OK entering the national vernacular. Our location was suggested by Ed Jones and Sarah Silver.

    Ep. 420 - Ellicott City Jan 27, 2022
    Show notes

    Ellicott City is a suburb outside of Baltimore with a historic and shopping district that attracts visitors year round.

The city was named one of Trip Advisor's Top 10 Spooky American Getaways because this is quite the haunted town. Join us as we explore the history and hauntings of Ellicott City! The Moment in Oddity was suggested by Chelsea Flowers and features the Shell Cave Grotto and This Month in History features Dr. William Bryden as sole survivor of Kabul Massacre. Our location was suggested by Melanie Antonelli.

    Ep. 417 - Haunted Cemeteries 21 Jan 06, 2022
    Show notes

    We love our cemeteries around here. They are places of such peace and for many of us, strangely, a place of comfort. And as we have found, many have a spirit or two unable to let go of their terrestrial bonds. On this episode, we are going to share some of the burial practices of rural families at the turn-of-the-twentieth-century and some of the traditions that are still carried on in cemeteries today. We also have several more haunted cemeteries to share from Ohio, Oregon, California and Indiana. Join us as we share Haunted Cemeteries 21! The Moment in Oddity was suggested by Jim Featherstone and features The Italian Bride, Julia Buccola Petta and This Month in History features Francis Salvador becoming first elected Jew in the Americas.
