Girls Just Wanna Get Haunted

EP10 Seances, Scams, and Emotional Support Ghosts

Welcome to Girls Just Wanna Get Haunted, This week, Jasmine and Lacey explore the fascinating history of mediumship, from ancient spirit communication and the Fox Sisters to Victorian séances, spirit photography, and Harry Houdini's crusade against fraudulent mediums. Along the way, we visit famous Spiritualist communities like Lily Dale and Cassadaga and share our own experience receiving a reading from a medium. Were mediums gifted messengers, clever entertainers, or something else entirely? Grab a drink and join us as we dive into the strange world of talking to the dead.

Spooky Side Quests 01 Our First Paracon

Welcome to the very first episode of Spooky Side Quests, a new mini-series from Girls Just Wanna Get Haunted! These shorter, more conversational episodes take us off the beaten path and into the weird, spooky, and wonderfully strange places we discover along the way. From paranormal events to quirky museums, oddball shops, and roadside curiosities, Spooky Side Quests are all about the adventures that don't quite fit into our regular episodes. For our first Side Quest, we traveled to DeKalb, Illinois to attend our very first paranormal convention: Obscura Paracon. Held inside the castle-like Altgeld Hall at Northern Illinois University, the convention brought together paranormal investigators, psychics, vendors, authors, and enthusiasts for a weekend filled with workshops, shopping, and all things strange and unexplained. Join us as we share our favorite moments, and our first experience stepping into the world of paranormal conventions. Obscura Paracon - Illuminating the Unseen. Celebrating the Unknown.

EP09 The Egyptian Theatre: Ghosts, Growls, and Good Boys

Join us as we step inside the historic Egyptian Theatre in DeKalb, Illinois for a sold-out paranormal investigation. From the mysterious Lady in Green roaming the balcony to a heartbreaking spirit said to linger in the women's restroom, this investigation took us through dark dressing rooms, endless mirrors, unexplained knocking, and some surprisingly personal ghostly conversations. Did we make contact with a former performer named Gloria? Why did multiple investigators feel watched from the exact same corner of the theater? And how did Jasmine end up blindfolded on stage telling a ghost hunter he was a "good boy" during an Estes Method session?  Grab your favorite spooky snack and join us as we explore one of Illinois' most beautiful haunted theaters, where the history is rich, the spirits are active, and apparently the bathroom ghost has very strong opinions about who she's willing to talk to.  Research rabbit holes...

EP08 Lizzie Bordon and the Spice Girls

In 1892, Andrew and Abby Borden were murdered inside their Fall River home, and all eyes turned to their daughter, Lizzie. The evidence was strange, the rumors were relentless, and the trial became one of the most talked-about cases of its time. Lizzie was acquitted, but she spent the rest of her life carrying a reputation she could never outrun. Today, the Borden house is a museum and bed-and-breakfast, and Lacey toured it herself to bring firsthand details of the rooms where the story unfolded. In this episode, we look at the murders, the trial, and the life Lizzie tried to rebuild afterward, exploring why this case still holds such a grip on true-crime fans more than a century later.

EP07: Shakers Cigar Bar and its blonde loving ghost

Step inside Shaker's Cigar Bar, one of Milwaukee’s most talked-about haunted locations. Built in the late 1800s, the building has lived many lives, from a Schlitz Brewing cooperage to a Prohibition-era speakeasy tied to the Capone family, and a brothel with a long list of dark stories. In this episode, I break down its history and share my experience visiting during a ghost tour on March 15th, 2025, where I encountered unexplained activity from start to finish. Whether you’re a skeptic or a believer, this is one of those places that makes you pause and think twice. Research Rabbit Holes We Fell down...
