56. Wine & Spirits: Shadow Spiders

59. The Real Ghosts Of... Centreville, MS: Part 3

REACH OUT ON THE HAUNTLINE! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2613544/fan_mail/new] In Part 3 of our Centreville, Mississippi series, we take you with us — literally — as we dive into one of the weirdest experiments we've ever done.   After uncovering the chilling history of Camp Van Dorn and running into a town full of silence and dead ends, we knew a typical paranormal investigation wouldn't cut it. So we turned to ritual, intention, chaos magic, and... the Randonautica app.   In this immersive, vlog-style episode, you'll come along as we pull cards from the Memento Mori oracle deck, activate a sigil, set our intention, and let Randonautica guide us to whatever — or whoever — might help us uncover the truth. What unfolds includes a long forest drive, a mysterious path through dense trees, and a random clearing that seems too intentional to be coincidence.   The deeper we go, the more surreal it becomes. From our Estes session the night before, where the main message was a repeated, urgent plea to "get the book," to the uncanny alignment of our oracle pulls and destination, something is clearly trying to communicate with us.   But what?   This episode is less polished investigation and more raw spiritual scavenger hunt. And while we didn't find the book… we're pretty sure it's still waiting to be discovered.   Follow along as we try to decode the breadcrumbs. And stay tuned for Part 4, where we reveal what came through during our Estes session... and the séance that ended everything with, of course, even more high strangeness.   👻 Got a theory or noticed something we missed?

58. The Real Ghosts Of... Centreville, MS: Part 2

REACH OUT ON THE HAUNTLINE! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2613544/fan_mail/new] In this second installment of our Centreville investigation, we step beyond the quiet decay of Moonshadow Manor and into a far more unsettling shadow: the alleged mass killing of Black soldiers at Camp Van Dorn.   Join us as we walk the place where the camp gates once loomed...an unremarkable roadside clearing today, but a site tangled in decades of rumor, grief, and contested memory. We trace the history of the camp, sift through research, and explore the story that has circulated.   This episode is an honest conversation about difficult history. We approach this topic with deep respect for those whose lives and legacies may be bound to this story, while also questioning how folklore, fear, and conspiracy sometimes entwine with fact.   You can view all the sources we referenced in our own research listed below.

57. The Real Ghosts Of... Centreville, MS: Part 1

REACH OUT ON THE HAUNTLINE! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2613544/fan_mail/new] What we thought was a haunted house investigation turned out to be something much bigger. In this first chapter of our Centreville, Mississippi series, we invite you into Moonshadow Manor—an eerie, forgotten home frozen in time, filled with personal items left behind and a palpable energy that seemed to know we were coming. Nicole walks the house while channeling impressions from the former occupants, and we begin to uncover breadcrumbs that hint at a much larger story.   But as the spirits stirred, so did the whispers of the town's buried past.   This isn't just a haunting. It's a haunting introduction.   Join us for this atmospheric prelude... and stay tuned for Episode 2, where the real mystery unfolds: a controversial military history, a missing regiment, and the lingering question—what really happened at Camp Van Dorn?     Find Moonshadow Manor on Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/themoonshadowmanor/] and book your stay at this beautiful home here!

56. Wine & Spirits: Shadow Spiders

REACH OUT ON THE HAUNTLINE! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2613544/fan_mail/new] In this episode, we're crawling into the void with a listener-submitted story that gave us full-body chills: shadow spiders. Yes, you read that right—spidery forms made of darkness, darting along walls and ceilings, skittering just out of reach of the light. We share the tale, then spin our own web of theories as we unravel the possible meanings behind these eerie entities. Are they spirit? Thoughtform? Interdimensional bleed-through? Grab your cleansing spray (and maybe a fly swatter) as we descend into the tangled threads of this strange and sinister phenomenon.   🔗 Check out the ParaPeculiar interview with Heidi Hollis that sparked this conversation here!

55. Wine & Spirits: Oops, I did it again...

REACH OUT ON THE HAUNTLINE! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2613544/fan_mail/new] We swear we were just trying to take a little pleasure trip. Just a casual getaway to New Orleans—eat some beignets, drink some cocktails, maybe talk to a few ghosts if they asked nicely. But surprise! High strangeness had other plans. In true "us" fashion, we accidentally booked a haunted location (because of course we did), and things got... weird.   In this Wine & Spirits episode, we're pouring a drink and recapping the whole New Orleans adventure,. We're sharing what happened, what we felt,
