In this wild episode, Heaven surprises Jonathan with a special guest: our friend Corey from the Good Chat with CW podcast. We’ve been on Corey’s podcast a few times, so it’s way past due that Corey come on Ope, A Ghost and tell us about his experiences at some of New England’s most famous haunted locations. Stay tuned for Paranormal News, and Heaven takes us on a visit to the Bull’s Head Inn in Cobleskill, New York where poltergeist activity abounds. Some say it’s the ghost of Mrs. Grace Stea...

The Midwest hides its darkness well — tucked between cornfields, covered bridges, and quiet main streets. But if you know where to look, the past refuses to stay buried. In this week's episode, we venture deep into the heart of America to investigate two locations where history and horror walk hand in hand. Our first stop is Billie Creek Village, a living history museum just outside Rockville, Indiana — home to over 30 historic buildings, three covered bridges, and more than a century's worth...

Do you hear that? That slow, rhythmic creak — is it a wheelchair finding its way down an empty corridor, or a gurney that’s been still for decades? Tonight, we're walking into two abandoned hospitals where the past refuses to stay quiet. First, we visit Aradale Lunatic Asylum in Victoria, Australia, where the case of one patient was so extraordinary that the state passed legislation specifically to confine him to its grounds. It seems even death couldn't change that. Then we cross the Pacific...

Once again, it’s time to pack up the Ope, A Ghost van and set out on another haunted road trip. This time, we’re heading to Atlanta, Georgia—but some roads are better left untraveled. Our stops in the ATL begin at the site of the deadliest hotel fire in American history where some victims remain, even if history has forgotten. We’ll wander through a park that may not be officially haunted, but it will definitely creep you out. Next, we’ll make our way to a historic mansion on Peachtree Street...

Some things go together so well they've come to define the concept of togetherness Peanut butter and jelly or Bonnie and Clyde come to mind, but this isn’t one of those times. In this episode, we explore two completely unrelated locations with only one thing in common: they're both haunted. First, we travel to St. Paul, Minnesota, where the elegant Forepaugh's Restaurant plays host to the spirit of Joseph Forepaugh himself, still wandering the dining room in formal attire. New brides, conside...

It’s our 3 Year Podiversary! To celebrate, we’re bringing you a Film vs. Fact episode where we examine the true story behind a haunting and compare it to the “based on a true story” film adaptation. In this episode, we again wade into the Conjuring Universe to examine The Conjuring 2. We’ll explore the film’s treatment of the famous Enfield poltergeist case and determine how much reality made it into the film. As it turns out, the answer is more than you think. Guy Lyon Playfair’s book T...

Welcome to another classic haunted house story. In this episode, we recount the experience of Cindy Sarro and her home in Caseyville, Illinois, where a dark presence began to assert itself, driving her from the house in just two months. Then we travel to south-central Indiana and the historic Whispers Estate. There’s a lot of legend surrounding the former doctor’s office and home of Dr. John Gibbons and his family. Visitors report unexplained footsteps, physical scratches, and a looming shado...

Some say first responders have seen everything—but did you ever imagine that “everything” might include the paranormal? In this episode, we delve into the eerie encounters of paramedics and police who have faced more than emergencies in the line of duty. Hear the spine-tingling account of a rookie paramedic haunted by ghostly children, and discover what happens when the dead themselves dial 911. Relive the unnerving moment when seasoned officers come face-to-face with an Ontario poltergeist a...

Welcome to Part 2 of our Film vs. Fact episode for The Conjuring: Last Rites. This time we’ll examine the real story behind the film, weighing the film’s most unsettling moments against eyewitness accounts and the Warrens’ own claims. What really happened at the Chase Street duplex in 1986—and what details were softened, altered, or left out entirely? For one, the alleged haunting occurred longer than the film suggests. What else did the film get wrong? The Haunted by Robert Curran with Jack ...
