A structure in Seguin, TX that is nearly as old as the state itself nearly became lost to history but thanks to its current owners, The Magnolia Hotel is being restored. From its beginnings as a two-room log cabin to its pre-restoration reputation as being a den for vagrants and drug abusers, the building has been a stagecoach stop, brothel, rental units, witnessed deaths and has even played a small part in the tragedy of a 12-year-old New Braunfels girl’s death in 1874.

One of THE most haunted locations in the U.S., the home at 508 N. 2nd Street in Atchison, KS is a mix of history, lore and demonic rituals conducted in the basement of the home. The most recognized residents of Sallie House are the Pickmans who moved into the home in 1993 and for nearly two years endured the wrath of a “man hating Sallie.” When Misfit Apparitions stayed the night last November, what they experienced at 12:50 a.m. is still irreconcilable to the team despite every effort to debunk what transpired.

Irish immigrant John McInteer made his fortune manufacturing equestrian harnesses and saddles before having his beautiful mansion built in Atchison, Kansas.  The home would be the final resting place for a man committing suicide and a violinist peacefully passing away in a rocking chair.  Misfit Apparitions recorded this episode live while investigating this amazing historical home.

An outdoor living history museum on 23 acres complete with 54 buildings from the early old west days of Wichita, Kansas.  27 of them are original and historic structures from the city and other areas throughout Kansas, brought to the northern bank of the Arkansas River.  And of course, if a structure had paranormal activity prior to its relocation to Old Cowtown Museum, then it just came along.

Situated approximately 75 miles southwest of San Antonio, Yorktown Memorial Hospital in Yorktown, TX  is described as being one of the most haunted locations in the state.  The 30,000 square foot, two-story building with a chapel, a full size basement and third floor living quarters served the town of Yorktown for 35 years.  Since its closing in 1986 however, stories of accidental deaths, an overaged, unsteady doctor and a double-murder began circulating.

In this second to last episode of season 1, we present what is hoped to be a regular addition to The Podcast beginning in season 2:  a story submitted by a listener about their paranormal experience.  We want to hear those real world stories and know others, even those with a passing interest in the paranormal, will want to hear them too.  If you have a story and wish to share it, please reach out to us.

Our first listener haunting is an interview with Karie from North Carolina.
