Episode #19: Haunted Lubbock/Belle Gunness

Jen takes us to Lubbock, Texas this week to talk about some of its most haunted spots — Hell’s Gate Bridge, the Pioneer Pocket Hotel, and Lubbock High School. Think ghost stories, local legends, and weird Texas energy.   Em dives into the story of Belle Gunness, one of history’s most unsettling killers. She didn’t just scam men out of money — she made sure they never left her farm alive.   It’s a mix of hauntings and true crime, which feels about right for us.       🛍️ Check out our new merch + 💀 join our Patreon for bonus content, stickers, and haunted shenanigans (links in bio).   MERCH LINK —> https://inmyhauntedera-shop.fourthwall.com/   PATREON —> https://www.patreon.com/cw/InMyHauntedEra     🔮 Stay Connected: Follow us @inmyhauntedera on Instagram and TikTok for behind-the-scenes pics, creepy memes, and upcoming episode teases.    📩 Got a spooky story?

Episode #18: The Nightmarchers/The Sallie House

WE’RE BAAAAAACK!!!   Em takes us to Hawai’i to talk about the Nightmarchers—ghostly warrior processions you really don’t want to cross paths with. Jen heads to Kansas for the Sallie House, a seemingly normal home with a seriously nasty reputation. Ancient spirits, haunted nurseries, and plenty of chaos in between.   🛍️ Check out our new merch + 💀 join our Patreon for bonus content, stickers, and haunted shenanigans (links in below and in bio).

Episode #17: The Pollock Twins Reincarnation/Encephalitis Lethargica

This week, Jen takes us to England for the story of the Pollock Twins—a case that’s often called the best modern example of reincarnation. After two sisters were killed in a car accident, their parents later had twin girls who seemed to remember details of a life they never lived. Creepy coincidence or proof of something bigger? Meanwhile, Em dives into encephalitis lethargica, the so-called “sleeping sickness” that left thousands of people trapped between waking and dreaming in the early 1900s. Some were frozen in place for decades, almost like living ghosts. Two different kinds of hauntings—one rooted in memory, the other in the body.   🔮 Stay Connected: Follow us @inmyhauntedera on Instagram and TikTok for behind-the-scenes pics, creepy memes, and upcoming episode teases.    📩 Got a spooky story?

Episode #16: The Vanishing of Tremont, Nevada/Paranormal Tools, Part 2

In this episode, Em dives into the eerie disappearance of Tremont, Nevada—a town that seemingly vanished without a trace. Was it a cover-up? A mass delusion? Or something stranger? Meanwhile, Jen breaks down the tools ghost hunters swear by: voice recorders, spirit boxes, EMF meters, and REM pods. What do they actually do—and do they really work? A town gone missing and the gear that might help us find what’s left behind. Let’s get into it.   🔮 Stay Connected: Follow us @inmyhauntedera on Instagram and TikTok for behind-the-scenes pics, creepy memes, and upcoming episode teases.    📩 Got a spooky story?

Episode #15: Paranormal Tools, Part 1/The Southend Werewolf

This week, Jen pulls out the paranormal toolbox and gives us the lowdown on pendulums, dowsing rods, and Ouija boards—what they are, how they (supposedly) work, and all the weird ways they’ve caused ghost hunters to argue with furniture. Spoiler: don’t ask a Ouija board if it’s friendly.   Meanwhile, Em takes us on a wild ride to Southend, England, where a man was allegedly possessed by a demonic werewolf spirit. Priests were called, things got bitey, and nobody came out of it with their dignity fully intact.   It’s a mix of ghost gear and werewolf weirdness—and as always, we’re only here to stir the pot (not summon anything, we swear).   🔮 Stay Connected: Follow us @inmyhauntedera on Instagram and TikTok for behind-the-scenes pics, creepy memes, and upcoming episode teases.    📩 Got a spooky story?
