    Mar 11 2024
    On this episode of MITM Laura is joined by Mike from The Paranormal Road Trippers. Mike shares some of his very frightening encounters that he has experienced at work and during paranormal investigations. Some of these experiences have led to spirit attachments. Then Laura shares some of her own experiences at haunted places and the feelings of residual energy. During this recording there were many unexpected noises, including clicks and bangs and some possible disembodied voices. Some of those audio anomalies have been clipped and placed at the end of the episode. Are they possible EVP’s coming from the haunted objects that Mike owns?

    26: Christmas Deities and Devils
    Dec 23 2023
    On this episode of MITM Christmas Special Pt. 2 Laura and Aaron continue their discussion on the origins of Christmas.  They jump back in time and cover the evolving deities and devils of the winter season.  Going all the way back to Norse mythology and  Odin's Wild Hunt, the threat of Odin and his heathen followers hunting you down on a cold winter's and taking you back to the underworld if you did not stay indoors.  Laura and Aaaron theorize how Berchta, a beautiful germanic goddess, associated with winter time, could possibly be the origin story of the paranormal entities know as "women in white".  After the Christian church took over they demonized Berchta and turned her into Frau Perchta and she is know for being a horrifying "christmas monster".  Warning of other scary Christmas monsters such as Krampus, Yule Lads, Gryla, the Yule Cat, are told.  There are plenty of dark creatures that lurk in the winter time but there are also deities such as  La Belfana, an italian christmas witch, who flies through the night sky and brings presents for the children and cleans away negativity to allow for a fresh start of the new year.   The story of St. Nicholas is thought to be the origin story of Santa Claus.  Some stories involving miraculous miracles Nicholas preformed, are much darker than one would think.  Last but not least the Belsnickel is discussed, having roots in Germany, extending to Pennsylvania  brought over to America by the Pennsylvania Germans what is now known as Pa Dutch.

    25: Winter Solstice
    Dec 14 2023
    On this episode of MITM Laura and Aaron step back in time for MITM Christmas Special Pt. 1.  Winter solstice and the dangerous dark days of the past are discussed.  Laura shares the oldest winter tradition, Yule, dating back before the year 672, was celebrated and started by Norse Pagans in Scandinavia.  The pagans used ancient superstitions to keep their homes and themselves save from the evil spirits of winter, that could result in death.  Winter could be a dark scary time but in order to survive they needed to have hope.  The 21st of December marks the winter solstice, it marks the return of the sun, days start to become longer from this point on.  This was a time to celebrate and be with loved ones.  Burning Yule logs, drinking wassail, telling stories, decorating with evergreens, were all parts of the celebration.  

        Over in Rome, the Roman Pagans celebrated the ancient tradition of Saturnalia, known to share similarities with Yule, however the Romans got a little crazier than the Scandinavians.  Saturnalia consisted of a week long party, the whole social structure was turned upside down, slaves were treated as equals, a lower member of the family was put in charge for the week and their job was to act foolish.  Drunken celebrations and singing in the streets was all apart of this.  Eventually Christianity took over. These celebrations ended and Christmas began. However Yule is still celebrated today by pagans. There are clear ties to the ancient traditions and the Christmas holiday has adopted parts of it that are still done today.

       Aaron shares the evolution of Santa Claus through the years, dating back to the 1800’s. Some unexpected versions are discussed.
