  • Ep.163 A Cave to the Underworld and a Haunted Opera House in Arkansas
    Jul 24 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    This week, we're in Arkansas! First, Kenzie gives us a two-for-one special with a murder and a haunted opera house. The King's Opera House in Van Buren has been a town staple since 1891, not just for artistic performances. The ghost of Charles Tolson is said to have haunted the theater since his murder in 1903, and only recently has the true story of his murder come to light. Next, Lauren shares stories from the ominous Blowing Cave in Cushman, Arkansas. This cave might have been used for secret parties during the Great Depression, or it may hold the entrance to a hidden underworld with human-like creatures. No one knows for sure! Dive deep with us into these spooky Arkansas mysteries!

  • Ep.162 Utah’s Cool Nature and Scary People
    Jul 17 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    This week, we are in Utah and with some very special guests! Kenzie’s mom was in town visiting, and was our honorary live audience while we recorded this episode! Unfortunately, our mics did not pick up what she said, so it might sound like we are talking to an imaginary person, but we promise, she was there! Later in the episode, our friend Juliana arrives, and it was great practice for future live shows! Lauren kicks things off by delving into the story of the controversial John Doyle Lee, a high-ranking member in the early days of Mormonism whose questionable decisions ultimately led to his excommunication from the church. Next, Kenzie shares the tale of the supposed curse on the 1956 John Wayne movie, The Conqueror. Is the movie really cursed, or simply a result of human error and negligence? Tune in for an episode filled with intriguing stories and a glimpse into Utah's cool nature and its more ominous characters.

  • Ep.161 Louisiana’s Spirits That Light Up The Night
    Jul 10 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    This week, we dive into the hot and sticky bayous of Louisiana! First, Kenzie shares the story of the corrupt business dealings of brothers Jean and Pierre Lafitte and the famous building where they are said to have operated. Now called Lafitte’s Blacksmith Shop Bar, it is believed to be a hotspot for spiritual activity due to its long history that predates the Revolutionary War. We also explore Le Feu Follet, or the "Will-o'-the-Wisp," the mysterious, ghostly lights that appear in the swamps and bayous of Louisiana, attributed to spirits or supernatural phenomena. The spirits of Louisiana are a force to be reckoned with!
