Episode 09 - Dead Man's Hole

Howdy folks! We're back in Texas exploring the aptly named Dead Man's Hole in Austin. In our country's second largest state, it's no wonder that there are plenty of haunts to discover off the beaten path.

Episode 08 - The Queen of the Gulf

We're taking a trip south to explore Galveston, TX and the Grand Galvez hotel! With almost 200 years of history, there is plenty of energy here to attract visitors of all walks of life (and beyond). And a big thanks to Dan D, 222smama, and Marsha from Get Off the Couch for their trip reviews that we share in today's episode!

Episode 07 - Betty & Barney Hill

This week, Desirae takes us through Franconia Notch in New Hampshire to learn about Betty & Barney Hill, and their out-of-this-world encounter from September 1961! We can't say exactly how we would react in a situation like this, but we have a feeling few could live up to the calm curiosity that Betty showed that night and in the weeks that followed.
