12. Police UFO Sighting- Louisville Jan 07, 2021

11. Where the Heck is Daniel Boone Buried? Dec 31, 2020

Show notes

Boone was a great explorer, not a savvy businessman. But where are his remains? Missouri? Kentucky? Both? Neither? We’ll probably never know, but it makes for a great story.

10. HAUNTED- Old Talbott Tavern & Jailer’s Inn Dec 28, 2020

Show notes

Jesse James. The Dungeon Room. Ghost babies. Bourbon. What doesn’t Bardstown have? I can’t wait to stay in The Jail Cell. Maybe I’ll do a follow up episode.

9. Edgar Cayce- The Sleeping Prophet of Christian County Dec 24, 2020

Show notes

Head trauma or god-given talent!? Who knows. His life story is pretty wild. No matter what you believe, his contributions to holistic medicine are real. This episode highlights the chain of events in Edgar Cayce’s life that labeled him the father of holistic medicine.

8. Meat Shower- Bath County Dec 21, 2020

Show notes

An unexplained event that occurred in Bath County, KY. Scientists couldn’t determine why it happened or how it happened. Just that it did. (It was probably vultures or a weird veggie-like substance.) A butcher named Frisbee even sampled the mystery space meat.

7. Kentucky UFO Abduction- Stanford Dec 17, 2020

Show notes

Three women from Liberty thought they were going to have a laid-back birthday dinner in Lancaster. They were in for much more. Like burning eyeballs and antisocial parakeets. Also how great is the name Dr. Leo Sprinkle?

6. Southern Exposition- Louisville Dec 14, 2020

Show notes

Just history- no haunt! An amazing event took place in Louisville in the 1880s that changed the course of the city’s industrial role in our country. Huge structures were built and visitors flocked from all over the world to take part in the Southern Exposition.

5. Murder on Chestnut St- Louisville Dec 10, 2020

Show notes

Charles Brownfield made a lot of bad decisions. Like getting married the same day he met his wife. Or gambling away an inheritance. But it gets way worse. Anything can happen... it’s the 1880s!

4. A Grave Mistake- Octavia Hatcher Dec 07, 2020

Show notes

Octavia Hatcher married a prominent Pikeville businessman in the late 1800s. They were so excited to start a family and live a long happy life together. Things didn’t go as planned.

3. Jane Crawford Didn’t Have Twins Dec 04, 2020

Show notes

Ephraim McDowell comes to the rescue in the 1800s of a woman misdiagnosed with twins. What she was actually carrying in her belly was way more menacing than the idea of two extra mouths to feed!
