Haunted or Hoax

Surprise! We are back after a lot of delay with episode two of this season. The world is a mess and so are we, but this week we bring you a 'castle' in Colorado. Instead of princes, kings, and happily ever afters we have headless nuns, children ghosts, and cursed paintings. A lot is going on at the castle but is it all just the minerals making us see things or does it have legit origins? We'd appr...

Boo! Did we scare you? Don't be, it's just us! This week we actually recorded in person in our favorite city of Savannah, Georgia. But...we didn't talk about a location there.

We'd appreciate it if you took a mo...

PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT KRISTEN HAD TO EDIT THIS EPISODE SO FORGIVE HER. New York is the place to be if you want sad mental institutions with haunted halls. Utica is no exception. With its history of patient deaths, living conditions, and a horrific crib, it’s no wonder this place is said to be brimming with spirits. But is it really haunted by ghosts or just the awful memories of the sick?  We'd a...
