If you know the paranormal, then you know that California's Mount Shasta is a hot spot for high strangeness of all kinds, but did you know the rest of the state is just as strange?

The Haunted Seaside Nov 30, 2021

Show notes

There has been a LOT of water happening out here on the west coast and so for this episode, we thought we'd run with it and see what kinds of horrors the seaside harbors. The answer is: plenty. From a screaming spirit who needs help which can't be given to an unusual hitchhiking couple on the road to a beachside town in India, there's no end of the high strangeness of the The Haunted Seaside.

Also on this episode: Brennan reaches a stalemate with gravity, Paul sets bathtime rules, and a fistfight almost breaks out over Bigfoot

Visions of the Time Fish Nov 16, 2021

Show notes

The most exciting stories are the ones that connect across different times, locations, and people, and on this episode we have not one or two but three different occasions where that's happened. Shadow people will menace, dreams will be shared, and if you look quickly enough at just the right time, you'll catch a vision of the Time Fish lording over it all.

Also on this episode: Paul as the new Duke, Brennan vs. birds, and one weird trick to banish your self doubt

Show notes

From the Vermilion in Ohio to the Ganges in India, one thing you can rely on rivers to do is provide us with tales of high strangeness. On this episode we explore tales of disappearing boatmen, chained entities terrorizing those unfortunate enough to cross them, a dark spirit emerging from the jungle, and so much more.

The Uncovered Well Oct 05, 2021

Show notes

You find an uncovered well beneath your house - what do you do? No, this isn't a line from Zork, this is the conundrum faced by a listener in a story on this episode. October is listener story month, and you guys delivered, from the aforementioned well to a Swedish getaway, to TWO different stories of encounters with the plaid people. Halloween is inbound, and you can feel it.

Also on this episode: we lose our minds in the C segment, and you'll never look at a picnic table the same way again.

The Owl & the Glass Sep 21, 2021

Show notes

Do owls and glass make any sense together? Absolutely not, and neither does anything else that happened to us on this recording. With stories ranging from a spectral little girl in a blue dress to an invisible force throwing a mirror off the wall, the stories on this episode cover a lot of ground, and that's before things get weird in the studio. You'll have to listen to find out what the hell I'm talking about.

Also on this episode: Paul Bestall - Celebrity Podcaster, Brennan's back on the road, and the thunder rolls

Mysteries of Hawaii, with Lopaka Kapanui Sep 07, 2021

Show notes

What does it take to be considered a master storyteller? On this episode, Lopaka Kapanui, THE Hawaiian Ghost Story Guy, shows us how it's done as we read from his beautiful, haunting book "Mysteries of Hawaii." From the Night Marchers to spirit trails to the Menehune, Lopaka walks us through his home state's rich tapestry of folklore as we laugh, and maybe even cry just a little. This is one of our best shows yet.

In Case of Haunting, Break Glass Aug 24, 2021

Show notes

Somewhere in Modoc County, California there sits a motel that will forever put you off staying in room 4 - any room 4. In Bayonne, New Jersey, a horrible horn sounds, but can only be heard by a select few. When the world gets weird, your only weapon is to get weirder, and on this show we do just that.

Also on this episode: perfect seasons of TV, The Relationship Guys, and the lame kind of Plaid Person Vote for GSG in the Paranormality Magazine awards!
