Episode 37 - The Murders at Hinterkaifeck

I’m your host Kate and today’s story is a recommendation from Marissa. Hey Marissa! It takes us Germany in 1922 and is the unsolved case of the murders of 5 members of the Gruber-Gabriel family and their maid Maria Baumgartner. I do need to throw out a quick trigger warning that this story does include the deaths of minors. So as always, I won’t get into the graphic details of their deaths, but if that’s not something you’re ready to listen to, I completely understand and I’ll catch ya on another episode.

Episode 35 - The Winchester Mystery House

I’m your host Kate and today is all about a beautiful, but very mysterious house in San Jose, California. Purchased by Sarah Winchester in the late 1800s the once 8 bedroom farmhouse was renovated over the course of 20 years into a seven story, 160 room mansion. But this isn’t your normal HGTV makeover, or I wouldn’t be covering it on the show. This is…the Winchester Mystery House.

Episode 34 - The Enfield Poltergeist

I’m your host Kate and today’s episode is a very popular, but also very controversial haunting. The Enfield poltergeist tormented the Hodgson family in the 1970’s taking particular interest in 11 year old Janet. These events would be depicted in the movie the Conjuring 2, although, as usual, Hollywood obviously fabricated some of it. A large number of witnesses experienced the strange events in the home, still, many people are skeptical about what really occurred in that house.
