Haunted Waters of the Holston River: Ghost stories from east Tennessee Sep 28, 2020

Show notes

When you look into the rivers, lakes, and streams near your home, what do you see lurking in the waters? Can water really carry the memories of the dead, and amplify their voices? Today, on the H Files, we’ll talk about some strange things in the Tennessee Appalachians that wander the banks of the waterways and lurk under the surface of its lakes. Would you swim in these waters, knowing what lies beneath?

The Confused Spirits of a Chicago Walk-Up: A true ghost story interview Sep 20, 2020

Show notes

Every city has its tragedies. Some are recent and present in our minds. Some sit in the distant past, mostly forgotten to us as we hustle along the streets to our jobs or our tourist destinations. Whether forgotten or not, these tragedies, these pieces of micro-history nestled within the alleyways or along the sidewalks, shape and mold the very fabric of the city itself. If you stop to look and listen, sometimes you can see how those events changed the place around you. If you stay long enough, you may even hear, see, or feel the ghosts of those who perished in those tragedies, whispering warnings, or trying, desperately, to figure out what went wrong.
In this episode, we speak with Andrea, a business owner who got more than she bargained for when she signed a lease for a new storefront with a tragic past.Want to hear more from Andrea?

The Most Haunted Cemetery (in the world): Bachelor's Grove Sep 14, 2020

Show notes

When I was a child, my mother told me that cemeteries were less haunted than anywhere else, because the souls in a cemetery are at rest. But are they?I’ve since learned that cemeteries, indeed, can be quite haunted. Particularly those cemeteries where every single dead resident has reason to be angry with the living.
On this H Files episode, we look at one particular place, right here in America, that claims some of the most bizarre hauntings you’ve probably ever heard of.
Today, on Homespun Haints.

It Still Follows You: A true ghost story interview Sep 06, 2020

Show notes

If you grew up in a haunted house, would you think it’s possible that something from your childhood home was still, somehow, with you? What if you continued to encounter something…unexplainable…at night, on a regular basis, years and years later? Could it be the strange playmates you had from your childhood, just wanting to hang out? Or could it be something a bit more sinister?Today, on Homespun Haints, we talk to Shaun, who’s had a series of strange events plague him since childhood. We’ll let you decide if they’re all random coincidences, or if they’re all, somehow, related. With guest Shaun Nigro, Co-host of The Writer's Block Podcast and co-founder of 8 Sparks Media.

Mirror, Mirror: The history of Bloody Mary Sep 01, 2020

Show notes

Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary...How many times did you have to say it before you saw her? She's just an urban legend, so why do we still get creeped out when we are alone at night, in the dark, and we can't hold our own gaze in the mirror? Even though many of us summoned her as tweens, egged on by the daring or mean girls in our group, she never actually popped out of the mirror to get us...but......something...happened. What if Bloody Mary does exist, within the neuroanatomy of our very own brains? Join us as we learn about how our brains manifest and reveal the monster within, today, on the H-files, brought to you by Homespun Haints!
