Ep.211 OSTS Christmas 2025 25.12.2025

Happy Holidays, and we hope you all enjoy a lighthearted Christmas episode where we talk miracles, weather that is unseasonably warm, and one of our favorite new past times, mad libs!   Check out our affiliates: Javvycoffee.com Use code ORSO77605 to get 15% off every order.

Ep.210 Wyoming Frontier Prison 18.12.2025

We find ourselves back at another prison, but there's a reason we keep coming back. Some have had darker histories than others, but we gotta say, this one is pretty up there for atrocities. Like Kelsey will say. "I don't even blame them for haunting the place". So let's buckle up and jump in.   Check out our affiliates: Javvycoffee.com Use code ORSO77605 to get 15% off every order.

Ep.209 Natchez City Cemetery & the Witch of Yazoo City 11.12.2025

Mississippi, double the necessary letters for a word, and double the paranormal hotspots, apparently. We're checking out two cities today, because both stories were so interesting we just couldn't pass one up.  That would be like asking us to pick our favorite haunted child. We love them both equally, and have plenty of stories to prove it.   Check out our affiliates: Javvycoffee.com Use code ORSO...

Ep.208 Mass Psychogenic Illness 04.12.2025

We can barely believe it ourselves, but it's already December, and the top of the month which means another grab bag of an episode. This one has an over arcing idea, but we let it sort of bleed into adjacent territory. But it's ok, because all of it is equally stressful/frustrating. So grab your torch and pitchforks, cause we're going on a witch hunt for some answers.   Check out our affiliates: J...

Ep.207 Remington Arms 26.11.2025

Happy Thanksgiving to all celebrating, and welcome back to another riveting episode of "Or So They Say". You'll never believe this, but we're here today to talk about ghosts with you! Specifically in Bridegport, Ct.; she's not just a pretty face, but a haunted one too. Enough so that we're covering a group we swore we would stay away from because even they couldn't stay away from the haunts. There...

Ep.206 Russell Battery 20.11.2025

It's been a while since we've found ourselves on a military base, but they always seem to find their way back to us. This time we're all the way out in Hammond, Oregon longing for the coasts and the ghosts. And luckily this location has plenty of both. Alright, that's enough rhyming for one day. Enjoy the show!   Check out our affiliates: Javvycoffee.com Use code ORSO77605 to get 15% off every ord...

Ep.205 The Old Hospital on College Hill 13.11.2025

The name is long, but the history is longer. And tragic. Which is sad for them. But great for us. Cause that means ghosts! Well, hopefully anyway. And there's only one way to find out, so join us on another spooky adventure!   Check out our affiliates: Javvycoffee.com Use code ORSO77605 to get 15% off every order.

Twin Tangent 18: OSTS Halloween 2025 30.10.2025

It's TIIIIIMMMMEEEEEE! Halloween is here and we are thriving, but after a very busy month we've decided to treat ourselves, and hopefully you, to another fun filled Halloween twin tangent! This time we've got movies, mind reading, mad libs, and we really hope you enjoy the sound of nearly silent wheezing, cause this is LITTERED with just that.    Check out our affiliates: Javvycoffee.com Use code...

Ep.204 Eloise Asylum 23.10.2025

Another Thursday, another asylum, but that seems to just come with the territory, doesn't it? This time we're up in Michigan, and we've got a pretty lengthy history here, and even some documented tragedies on our hands, but will that make this place haunted?   Check out our affiliates: Javvycoffee.com Use code ORSO77605 to get 15% off every order.

Ep.203 The Mudd House Museum 16.10.2025

Kelsey doesn't like to consider herself a pessimist, more like a realist, and she'll call BS when she sees it. So did she call it this time on this location? Of course. Was she right? Of course not. We hate to be wrong, but sometimes it's so nice when we are. Give this one a chance, and make it to the end to see what we mean. Cause she's wild.   Check out our affiliates: Javvycoffee.com Use code O...

Ep.202 The Hoosac Tunnel 09.10.2025

We know we mention it all the time, but we should have learned after Tunnelton to not underestimate a location as simple as a tunnel. Who would have thought that the history of a tunnel could be one of the deadliest we've covered? This one's dark, and (luckily for us) very much haunted. So let's discuss.

Ep.201.2 The Conjuring House Pt.2 07.10.2025

You're seeing correctly, it's not Thursday, and this is not a duplicate episode, we're back in Rhode Island at the Conjuring House! We learned from our last episode (unsurprisingly) that there is a ton going on here, and one of the most notable paranormal teams out there seems to think so as well. Sam and Colby have a 4 part series covering this location, and every one of them is so packed we figu...

Ep.201 The Conjuring House 02.10.2025

It's the most wonderful time of the year! October is finally here, and we decided to kick it off big with one of the most recognizable haunted locations to those even outside of the paranormal realm, the conjuring house. This is a long one, but we feel it's worthy of that, and to be honest, we could have covered even more. Who knows, tis the season to give the paranormal community what they want,...

Ep.200 Happy 200th! 25.09.2025

Well, we made it, 200! Of course not without a few bumps, illnesses, and god knows what else along the way, but better late than never. So we tried to put together a little something special for all of you. If Kelsey doesn't lose too much sleep over it, you should be SEEING us, as well as hearing us talk about our "second" trip to the Indiana State Sanatorium. Here's hoping all the work was worth...

Ep.199 The Brown Palace Hotel 04.09.2025

We're back in good old Colorado. It may not be a small town this time, but the big cities still have some hauntings to share. We may have had some doubts about this place, but it always turns out ok in the end, and this one may run a little deeper than we initially thought it would.   Check out our affiliates: Javvycoffee.com Use code ORSO77605 to get 15% off every order.

Ep.198 Bonanzaville, North Dakota 28.08.2025

The location name: wild, the intro topics: unhinged, but the hauntings? Well, brother, we hope you're prepared, cause we sure weren't. We've always said some of the best stuff comes from where you least expect it, and we guess there's no where more unassuming than North Dakota. You're gonna wanna give this one a listen. Ps, happy belated 5 year anniversary to us, holy cow!!   Check out our affilia...

Ep.197 The Gill House 22.08.2025

Oh, Ohio, you've done it again. The history may be the run of the mill stuff at this point, but the hauntings didn't disappoint. This time we're following CjFaison and his experience of the house, and judging by the length of his episode, and now ours, it's hard to argue that she might be just a little bit haunted.    Check out our affiliates: Javvycoffee.com Use code ORSO77605 to get 15% off ever...

Ep.196 Gaines Tavern 14.08.2025

Is it a house? Is it a tavern? Is it a museum? Honestly, we don't know, but you know what we do know? She sure is haunted. So let's dive into the southern state of Kentucky, and see why this Walton city structure is seemingly crawling with ghosts.   Check out our affiliates: Javvycoffee.com Use code ORSO77605 to get 15% off every order.

Ep.195 Watts Family Home 07.08.2025

If we had a nickel for every time we've cried on this podcast in recent history, we'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it's happened twice. This one was to be expected though. This is part true crime, part unexpected haunting. This is a recent and very well known case, so we're sure you know some of the details of the murders, but what about what was left behind?   Check ou...

Twin Tangent 17:Feuds and Rivalries 31.07.2025

Every time a twin tangent comes around it feels like it's been long overdue. We've been itching to stray from our usual path, and we've landed on some good old fashioned band rivalries. Take a little walk down pop/punk/"emo" memory lane with us, and see why our favorite bands were duking it out behind our backs, and sometimes right in front of our faces.   Check out our affiliates: Javvycoffee.com...

Ep.194 Homestake Opera House 24.07.2025

Sometimes the spookiest of things are found in the most unexpected places. Take, for instance, the small city of Lead, South Dakota. We're not sure how we didn't stumble upon this location in the past, but we're glad we have now. Some things are almost too outlandish to believe, but maybe we should give this one a chance.   Check out our affiliates: Javvycoffee.com Use code ORSO77605 to get 15% of...

Ep.193 Brushy Mountain State Penitentiary 17.07.2025

Welcome back to the rolling hills of Tennessee. This week we are in the teeny tiny town of Petros, which apparently has a lot more to offer than would originally seem. Concerts and ghosts rule the streets here, and with a penitentiary with a history as dark as this, it's no wonder they're running rampant.   Check out our affiliates: Javvycoffee.com Use code ORSO77605 to get 15% off every order.

Ep.192 Omni Grove Park Inn 10.07.2025

We're back on the mainland of the United States, and we're hitting the ground running in Asheville, North Carolina. This is arguably one of the fanciest locations we've covered, the history and the numbers speak to that. They say money can't buy you happiness, but can money buy you paranormal activity? Let's find out.   Check out our affiliates: Javvycoffee.com Use code ORSO77605 to get 15% off ev...

Ep.191 Spooky 4th of July 03.07.2025

Well, it's (almost) the 4th of July, and we've decided to celebrate the best way we know how, by talking about spooky stuff. Turns out not even America's independence day is free from atrocities, otherworldly and otherwise. So join us as we talk about creepy clowns, creepy men, and creepy dogs. And just a heads up, that last one is a JUMP SCARE..   Check out our affiliates: Javvycoffee.com Use cod...

Ep.190 La Croix Virgin Islands 26.06.2025

Well, we've found ourselves at the end of our US territory run, and what better place to end it than in the Virgin Islands? We've never been there before, but honestly, after this episode neither of us would mind a little trip there, hauntings included. Speaking of hauntings, they've sure got 'em. It's just a toss up if they're gonna be, you know, helpful, harmful, or malevolent. Probably worth th...
