Welcome to “The Hauntological Society”, the podcast where the eerie meets the absurd, and the eerie gets a good-natured side-eye. Each week we venture into the shadowy corners of reality to Explore ghosts that go bump in the night, the UFOs that refuse to leave us on read, and the cryptids lurking just out of focus on your smartphone photographs. From Bigfoot’s questionable fashion choices to alien abduction etiquette, we tackle the weird, the wonderful, and the wildly implausible with curiosity, wit, and just enough skepticism to keep it interesting, and trust is its going to get weird!
