In the final episode of season one, we travel back to where this incredible journey all began – at an unassuming tattoo shop on the Spider House grounds in Austin, Texas. In Episode 1, “ Ink, Coffee & Spirits”, Stephen and Sara investigated the story of Ray and the many unexplained experiences surrounding the Royal Legion Tattoo Shop. Sara shed some light on the spirit who haunted their shop, but what was not revealed was that Sara encountered several other Spirits that very same night on the grounds of the Spider House Café. These Spirits wanted to be seen but their stories were hazy and unclear at the time. Now, we are thrilled to guide you through one of the most interesting stories that has developed over the course of this past year. It centers around the many Spirits haunting the Spider House grounds, one of whom we call “The Man With A Box”. Throughout this year long journey, Stephen uncovers new fascinating stories, meets with past and present employees who share their personal experiences, and discovers new evidence that leads him and his team to believe that someone other than Christine may have been responsible for some of the unexplained happenings at Royal Legion Tattoo.Support the show

In the final chapter of “The Restless” series, Stephen, Sara, Alexis and Franklyn must put their heads together to figure out what’s really happening to this young couple in New Braunfels, Texas. With activity heightening, rather than subsiding after a small cleansing ritual, Stephen and the team fear they might have angered the spirit and put Amanda and Paul in danger. Join Stephen and the team as they gear up and travel back to confront this darker presence oppressing Amanda and Paul, discover new physical evidence that Franklyn has captured on video, and finally do what they can to enlist the help of a local Native American Medicine Man. This case takes the team back to New Braunfels two more times with the hope that they might provide peace for this family, help them regain control of their new home, and for once in their time here, get some rest.Support the show

In this episode, the Night Owl Podcast dives into unfamiliar territory, investigating, for the first time, a private residence in New Braunfels, Texas. It’s the home of a husband and wife who have reached the end of their rope. Recently having purchased the home, within weeks, the couple began hearing and seeing things they could not explain. Loud noises coming from their living room at night, full-bodied apparitions appearing in front of them, and even object levitation. The activity has continued to progress throughout their first year there, so much so that they are unable to sleep or feel comfortable in their very own home. Join host Stephen Belyeu along with two of his fellow ghost hunter friends, as he takes a road trip to New Braunfels to investigate these claims and see if they can provide the couple with any answers.Photo provided by @bentorresphotoSupport the show
