The Whaley House; A Case Study into Residual Hauntings

In today’s episode, I will be exploring the idea of residual energy, natural earth energies and how this combination can influence what become known as hauntedplaces. I will be using one of the most talked about houses in The United States as a case study. This house has officially been crowned the most haunted house in America. Not only by public opinion, but also by the California Chamberof Commerce.

Water Babies of Cannon Beach with a Side of The Bandage Man

Back in September of 2024, a friend tag me in the commentssection of an Instagram Reel with the comment quote “Have you heard of this?? Sounds gnarly” unquote and I was immediately intrigued. The reel was creepy, dark, unsettling and it had my Spideysenses tingling. Due to my obsession with all things strange and unusual, there are very few urban legends or local haunts that I have not heard about. But they are out there. So, when something like this reel comes into my consciousness, I am drawn to find out more. In today’s episode, I am going to deep dive into an urbantale that is finding its ways out of the corners of the internet and into our collective hive mind. Have you heard of the Water Babies of Cannon Beach? And what do you know about The Bandage Man of Highway 101?

Houdini vs. Spiritualism

In this episode, I am going to explore the second half of Harry Houdini’s life mission.

In the next few episodes of The Dark Side of Lightwork, I will offer a short series exploring some of the things from the paranormal world that piqued my curiosity, and scared me deeply at the same time.   The second topic in this series is about one of the first books I had ever heard of that came with dire warnings against its use. Best case scenario, you conjure a demon, worse case scenario, you die after reading it. Have you heard of the Necronomicon?
