The Tipsy Ghost

The episode where Lindsey brings us some true crime - some conman true crime! Yes, it’s another story with no murder! Meet John Darwin, and his wife, Anne. John meets Anne. John gets in debt. John goes missing and is declared dead. Anne gets looooots of life insurance money. Motive seems to be clear…until five years later when John shows up with “amnesia”. This story is wild, made more fun by how...

The episode where Sarah gives us our next favorite cryptid: The Kraken! Smorgasbord episodes are just the best. But first, Sarah has retaken the Enneagram test and now she’s a different number and Lindsey doesn’t know what to do with her life anymore. While she’s processing, we’ll dive into our story of the Kraken. And look, we’re not judging, but one of us thought this was a legit sea creature un...

The episode where Boydston returns to what she loves - aliens! These are alien experiences from various celebrities, and we’re going to pretend Boydston heard about them from Delilah, just because we love her. If you don’t know what we’re talking about, we just cannot. We also get an AI short story about our favorite horse, Sound, that is just ridiculous. www.thetipsyghost.com  Find us on Facebook...

The episode where we share our recent haunted investigation at Harris Kearney House in Westport (downtown Kansas City), MO. We thought we had seen all of haunted KC, but we were wrong! This house was built in 1875, is the oldest two story brick home in KC, and had history with the battle of Westport. We discover Lindsey is a secret architecture major, do some forbidden dancing, we take the greates...

The episode where Sarah brings us some true crime with a twist: no murder, yay! This is the story of conman Nick Rossi, and spoiler alert, he still sucks. Nick goes by many names, he died once but came back from the grave, and he’s not even very smart about his schemes, honestly. Sarah is going to tell us all about Nick escaping the USA and hiding out in Europe…because your crimes just go away if...

The episode where Boydston brings us one of our favorite topics: a cryptid! Meet the Snallygaster. And listen, we’re gonna apologize ahead of time for that title. There’s just something about cryptids that we cannot take seriously. The Snallygaster has an unusual name that we will literally never remember. We call him many names…Scallywag, Snellysnack… you get it. For all our nicknames, this guy i...

The episode where we celebrate our 200th episode with a paranormal story from Lindsey - the Screaming Woods in the UK. More formally known as the Dering Woods in Pluckley, this village is one of the most haunted towns in England with over 12 ghosts wandering around. The real gift in this episode though is all of our amazingly bad English accents, so you’re welcome. www.thetipsyghost.com  Find us o...

The episode where we return to Beattie Mansion in St. Joseph, MO. This was our second investigation back in February 2020, so we were overdue for a revisit! This time, we got the place to ourselves, so expect shenanigans. We sell Sarah to the spirits, the word beefhole is invented (I hate it), and emotionally hurtful spirits. Overall, the vibes were definitely off at Beattie for our return investi...

The episode where we discuss who would be the true Final Girl in a horror story. Bet you can’t guess who it is! Actually…you probably can, it’s pretty obvious of the three of us. This mini episode is our Christmas gift to you - just the three of us discussing our favorite horror movie tropes, and how long we’d last in a horror movie. Who will fall the most? Whose phone will give them away? And who...

The episode where Boydston brings us a local KC cult from the early 1900s. This is the story of the rise and fall of the “Adam God” cult. There’s a lot of fig leaves, geography talk, and revisiting some of our social media fails. We also discover, yet again, how we would get sucked into cults. I mean this cult doesn’t believe in working…I think that’s something we can all get behind, right?! www.t...

The episode where Lindsey brings us a Christmas legend from Iceland, the Yule Lads! It also comes with a side gift for the Sarahs: Lindsey is going to pronounce all these Icelandic words (or attempt to). She tries, bless her heart. And if you haven’t heard of the Yule Lads, strap in because this is a RIDE. There are 13 trolls who cause mischief in the nights leading up to Christmas and some are do...

The episode where Sarah kicks off our holiday season with the story of the other Santa Claus…Krampus! We make him sound a lot more fun than he really is, because that’s what we do. He’s got a cute little backpack (but no map), some sassy claws, and lots of The Office quotes (how can we not?!). Guys, we’ve found our new favorite Christmas Cryptid. www.thetipsyghost.com  Find us on Facebook, Instagr...

The episode where we share our recent investigation at Carriage House in Jefferson City, MO. This home has been revamped as an Air BnB and is just a hop, jump, and a skip away from our favorite MO State Penitentiary. So a house with some history right next to a haunted prison HAS to be haunted too, right?! We get some Phasmabox responses in deep voices, the spirits are over our shenanigans (typica...

The episode where Lindsey brings us some unsolved true crime, the Sarahs favorite. Just kidding, they hate it. This is the story of the Yuba County 5, aka the American Dyatlov Pass. It’s the story where we know how it’s gonna end (spoiler: not good), but the how and why are still very much up in the air. Unsolved mysteries are fun, right?! Thank you to Magic Mind for sponsoring this episode (and o...

The episode where Sarah brings us an unsolved mystery - Lindsey’s favorite and Boydston’s nightmare. This is the story of missing flight 2501 over Lake Michigan in Michigan in June 1950. We make too many jokes about the ATC here, and we will go ahead and apologize now for our multiple corny impromptu songs. Let us know what you think happened to this missing airplane - bad weather, or the Great La...

The episode where Boydston brings us a story from a place she recently visited - the Whaley House in San Diego, CA. Built in 1856 during the height of the Gold Rush, this house also served as an execution site, and was built on a graveyard. So you know, combine that with quite a few deaths that happened in the house and you have a recipe for a spooky-ooky house. The house was built by Thomas Whale...

The episode where we share our (kinda) investigation of the Basin Park Hotel in Eureka Springs, Arkansas! Listen, Eureka Springs is a spooky girl and has multiple haunted hotels, so we had to hit this place up too! Full disclosure, we didn’t really investigate but we did do a haunted tour, so evidence is gonna be limited here. We learn the history behind this hotel, all of the hoteliers who owned...

The episode where Sarah brings us some true crime with an evil giggle, scandalous ankles, and a whoooole lotta red flags. This is the story of Nannie Doss, a woman who murdered pretty much everyone around her between the 1920s-1950s. She became known as the Giggling Granny, and really the Grim Reaper followed her everywhere she went. It wasn’t her, guys, she just has really bad luck, ok?! We have...

The episode where Boydston brings us a cryptid from the Appalachians, per request! Guys, meet our new bff, the Wampus, aka Daddy Wampus (thanks Sarah, we hate it). The wamp has several origin stories, so Boydston will walk us through them all. There’s a booger mask (snot what you think), “make that noise with TTG”, and a cougar lady. Cryptids are fun, guys. www.thetipsyghost.com Find us on Faceboo...

The episode where Lindsey tells us the history behind one of our dream locations: Trans Allegheny Asylum in Weston, WV. Guys, this place is huge. She’s a beast. The hospital was in operation from 1864-1994…which is 130 years for those of you doing the math at home. We’re sure you can imagine the cruelty and despair that occurred in this hospital over the course of those years, which has resulted i...

The episode where we talk about the time we went to one of the most haunted hotels in the country, the Crescent Hotel in Eureka Springs, Arkansas. Tune in for Big Jesus, the Berlin Wall, and Bigfoot…oh and all of the evidence we captured! www.thetipsyghost.com Find us on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and TikTok @thetipsyghost Email us your stories at thetipsyghost@gmail.com Show your support when...

The episode where we share a little extra episode about some conspiracy theories involving the famous show, The Simpsons. Surprising nobody, Lindsey has never seen the show, but don’t worry, the Sarahs fill her in. If you’re not aware, the show kindaaaa predicts the future. Are the writers of the show from the future? Government intelligence? Lizard people? TBD. www.thetipsyghost.com Find us on Fa...

The episode where Boydston shares another true crime origin story: Megan’s Law. But first, the Sarahs reallllly gang up on Lindsey and her Hufflepuff heart can’t handle it. This case though is a story for Sarah because it’s a crime solved by dental records (per her request)! The tragic murder of Megan Kanka in 1994 resulted in this law that we are all familiar with that requires public notificatio...

The episode where Lindsey tells us of one of the most haunted roads in the world, the Stocksbridge Bypass in Yorkshire, England. But even spookier than this road: Boydston likes to sit and rock in the dark. We're just as unnerved as you. This road though is spooky. Nicknamed "Killer Road", it has a few spooky new friends and possibly fairies that hang out along the path. The road is...

The episode where Sarah brings us a paranormal episode from the Appalachians - Highland Hospital, in Asheville, North Carolina. This haunted hospital had a famous guest, Zelda Fitzgerald, wife to famous author F. Scott Fitzgerald. We’re gonna call him F. Sarah and Zelda have some similarities - mainly that they like to dance out their feelings. Buuuut Zelda spent a large chunk of her life hospital...
