59: Ep. 59 Hell on Water: The Tragedies of Tevennec Lighthouse -Summer Series

Off the coast of Brittany, France sits a lighthouse that the French government officially exorcised. Tévennec Lighthouse has one of the most disturbing and well-documented haunted histories of any location in Europe — unexplained deaths, keepers driven to madness, ancient Breton mythology, and a paranormal history that stretches back centuries before the lighthouse was ever built. In this episode of Creepy Shit, we investigate the full history of Tévennec — from the Napoleonic shipwreck that killed hundreds on those rocks, to the twenty-three lighthouse keepers who couldn’t survive a single year on the island, to the ancient Celtic death mythology that claimed the island long before the French government ever did. Every claim. Every detail. Fully sourced and documented. Because the creepiest shit is always the truest.

58: Ep. 58 Cursed Waters: The Dark Truth of Lake Lanier - Summer Series

You think you know the Lake Lanier story. The haunted lake. The Lady of the Lake. The ghost town underwater. But I promise you — you do not know the half of it. Because underneath the ghost stories is a real, documented, devastating history that most people never talk about. A thriving Black community called Oscarville that was destroyed by racial terror in 1912. A county that maintained a White-only policy until the 1990s. Cemeteries at the bottom of a lake that were never moved. A woman’s body floating in a blue dress with no hands that sat unidentified for over thirty years. Seven people killed on Christmas Day. And a death toll of 700 people in less than 70 years — in a lake that is a fraction of the size of the bodies of water around it.  This week, I'm joined by Sarah and Mackenzie from Tea Tales & Talks to dig into one of the most complicated, most heartbreaking, and most undeniably haunted locations in America. Because some places carry weight. And Lake Lanier has been carrying centuries of it. Get ready for some creepy shit. DISCLAIMER** This episode discusses racial violence, lynching, and racial terror in documented historical detail.

57: Ep. 57 Englands Deadliest Forest & It's 2000 Year Body Count

Just outside one of the most populated cities on earth sits a 6,000-acre forest that has been collecting bodies — and secrets — since before the Roman Empire. Epping Forest isn’t just haunted. It’s a thousand-year crime scene layered on top of an Iron Age battlefield, a highwayman’s lair, and a gangland dumping ground. And that’s before we even get to the pond that locals say is *evil beyond measure.* In this episode of Creepy Shit, we’re diving deep into the true, documented, and wildly disturbing history of Epping Forest — England’s most dangerous woodland. We’re talking Celtic warrior queen Boudica’s last stand in 61 AD, Dick Turpin the real highwayman (not the romantic version — the murderous one), the Kray twins using the forest as their personal graveyard, a 30-year cold case known as the Babes in the Wood murders, a hill where your car rolls uphill with the engine off, and a pond with no location on any map that people say *pulls* you toward it. This one is packed with true crime, real history, paranormal activity, and the kind of dark folklore that will make you rethink everything you think you know about forests.

56: Ep. 56 The Bridge That Swallowed 844 Souls

In 1915, a ship everyone knew was dangerous capsized in the Chicago River — killing 844 people on their way to a company picnic. More deaths than the Titanic’s passenger list. 22 entire families, gone.  No one was ever held accountable.  And to this day, people standing on Chicago’s Clark Street Bridge report seeing faces in the water below. This is the SS Eastland disaster. And it’s been buried long enough.
