Mother's Day Ghost Stories: The Ubume, Crybaby Bridges, and the Paranormal Power of a Mother's Love

Haunted Summer Camps | The Ghost of Big Moose Lake, Johnny Sweetheart, and the Girl at Moon Lake

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2488970/fan_mail/new] A third of summer camps in America have banned ghost stories. But the ghosts were already there — in the lake, on the shore, in the mist over the water — long before anyone invented a story to tell in the dark. In this episode, we're diving into three real hauntings at real camps, backed by documented deaths, named witnesses, and decades of consistent firsthand accounts. Big Moose Lake, New York: In 1906, a young woman named Grace Brown was murdered on the water by the man she trusted. She never left. For 120 years, employees and guests at Covewood Lodge have reported extinguished flashlights, a vaporous girl on the staircase, and a single wet footprint on the dock before sunrise. Every July 11th, the anniversary of her death, a scream carries across the lake. Camp Wandawega, Elkhorn, Wisconsin: Before it was a beloved historic summer camp, Wandawega was a speakeasy and brothel run by a madam named Orphan Annie. In 1942, a Chicago man known as Johnny Sweetheart committed murder, kidnapped a woman at gunpoint, and fled to a Wandawega cottage, where he died in a rocking chair with his own revolver in his hand. Decades of guests have seen him wandering the far shore of the lake in the mist, a bowler hat, a mournful expression, still searching for something he cannot find. Moon Lake, Utah: Nobody knows who she is. A small girl, around seven years old, soaking wet with blue lips, has been approaching lone campers and hikers along the shore of Moon Lake for decades. She asks for help. Then she vanishes. The details never change across unconnected witnesses spanning generations of summers. Plus, our Somebody Told Me segment features a Key West listener whose family has been visited by the Hat Man across three generations and two states — same posture, same hat, same red eyes in the dark.

The Most Haunted Seaside Town in America: Cape May, New Jersey's Ghost Stories

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2488970/fan_mail/new] What if almost every building in your favorite beach town had a ghost? Welcome to Cape May, New Jersey, one of America's oldest seaside resorts and, according to paranormal researchers, its most haunted. Hosts Andi and Feliz trade Key West sunshine for the  Victorian streets of Cape May, where two centuries of history, a catastrophic fire, and generations of devoted vacationers have left more than memories behind. This episode covers: * Hotel Macomber's Room 10 — A loyal guest named Irene Wright checked in every summer for decades. She still does. Staff and guests report moving furniture, slamming doors, a trunk dragging up the stairs at night — and a captured EVP of a woman's voice saying "I'm still here." * Congress Hall — Burned twice, rebuilt twice. Today guests report phantom children, a mournful "Watery Spirit" who leaves puddles behind, and full-body apparitions in 18th-century dress. * The Southern Mansion — Esther Allen ran a Prohibition-era speakeasy here and clearly never wanted to leave. Guests report gardenia perfume, rustling petticoats, and Esther spotted dancing in the gardens. * The Emlen Physick Estate — The most haunted building in Cape May, home to three generations of spirits — and ghost dogs. Cape May's hauntings aren't about tragedy. They're about love — and the places we love so much, we never want to leave. 📬 Send us your paranormal stories: youtwoscaremepodcast@gmail.com [youtwoscaremepodcast@gmail.com] 🌐 youtwoscaremepodcast.com 📱 TikTok @youtwoscaremepodcast, Instagram @youtwoscareme_podcast & Facebook: You Two Scare Me Podcast Join our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/cw/YouTwoScareMePodcast You Two Scare Me is a paranormal and folklore podcast hosted by Feliz and Andi, recording from Key West, Florida.

Duendes, Lost Children, and the Spirit of the Amazon | You Two Scare Me Podcast

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2488970/fan_mail/new] Four children survived 40 days alone in the Colombian Amazon after a deadly plane crash — and the indigenous searchers who found them believe a forest spirit called the duende had been hiding them all along. In this episode, Feliz and Andi dig into the true story behind the Netflix documentary The Lost Children, the ancient folklore of the duende, and what happened when elite Colombian special forces started making offerings to a forest spirit from Black Hawk helicopters. We break down the origins of the duende, a shapeshifting creature that appears in the folklore of Mexico, Belize, Guatemala, Colombia, and the Philippines, and explore why the same spirit is described as both a child-stealing predator and a fierce protector depending on who you ask. We also get into the moment that changed everything: an indigenous leader named Don Rubio, a sacred ayahuasca ceremony called yagé, a vision of a tiger moving through darkness into light, and a prediction that the children would be found that day at 3:00. They were. We also hear a local Key West ghost story from the dad of one of Andi's students involving twin girls, a sea captain, a floating apparition in a white dress, and a construction worker who ran out of a Fleming Street house so fast he left his shoes behind. Plus, we open the episode talking about the Edgar Allan Poe pop-up speakeasy at the Key West Theater and a sea turtle release at the beach. It is a full episode. Topics covered: duende folklore, Latin American paranormal, Colombian Amazon, The Lost Children Netflix documentary, ayahuasca and yagé ceremony, indigenous spirituality, Operation Hope, Key West ghost stories, Fleming Street haunting, paranormal podcast, true ghost stories, cryptids, forest spirits, supernatural encounters.

The Green Children of Woolpit: Medieval Mystery or Alien Encounter?

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2488970/fan_mail/new] Dive into the shadows with Andi and Feliz on the You Two Scare Me Podcast as they unravel the baffling tale of the Green Children of Woolpit. This medieval mystery from 12th-century Suffolk, England, recounts the sudden appearance of two children with strikingly green skin, speaking an unknown language, and refusing all food except raw broad beans. Explore the historical accounts from William of Newburgh and Ralph of Coggeshall, whose independent writings lend an eerie credibility to this bizarre event. What caused their green hue? Why did they only eat fava beans? And where did they truly come from? Andi and Feliz delve into various theories, from the grounded to the unhinged. Could it be a case of hypochromic anemia among Flemish immigrants, as proposed by historian Paul Harris? Or does the story hint at ancient folklore and a passage to an underworld, where beans are the food of the dead? Perhaps it's a coded narrative about racial difference and assimilation, as suggested by Jeffrey Jerome Cohen. For those who love the truly unexplained, consider the most out-there theory: an alien encounter. Astronomer Duncan Lunan suggests the children could be from a planet orbiting a red dwarf star, explaining their green skin and perpetual twilight home. Join the You Two Scare Me Podcast for a chilling journey through history, legend, and the paranormal. This episode will make you question everything you thought you knew about the unknown and unseen forces at work around us.

Mother's Day Ghost Stories: The Ubume, Crybaby Bridges, and the Paranormal Power of a Mother's Love

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2488970/fan_mail/new] Mother's Day ghost stories, maternal grief folklore, and paranormal legends about mothers who refused to stop loving their children even after death — that's what we're diving into in this special Mother's Day episode of the You Two Scare Me Podcast. We're covering three haunting traditions from three completely different parts of the world, and every single one of them is rooted in the same unstoppable force: a mother's love. We start in Japan with the Ubume, one of the oldest named female spirits in recorded ghost tradition anywhere in the world — a woman who died in childbirth and whose ghost kept buying candy for her living baby until someone finally found it alive in her coffin. Then we travel to the cold coastal fishing villages of Nova Scotia, where a paranormal concept called the forerunner describes mothers who felt their children die at sea before any news could reach them, and where grieving women have been seen walking the shoreline long after their own deaths. Finally, we bring it home to America's Crybaby Bridges, where urban legends, firsthand paranormal accounts, dark rituals, and centuries of maternal grief have turned isolated bridges in Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana, and beyond into some of the most enduring haunted locations in the country. In this episode: * The Japanese ghost legend of the Ubume and the Kyoto candy shop that still sells child-rearing candy in her honor * The Buddhist concept of Chi no Ike (the Lake of Blood) and why mothers who died in childbirth were believed to be spiritually punished * Japanese burial practices developed specifically to prevent Ubume hauntings * Helen Creighton's Nova Scotia forerunner tradition and the story of Jimmy, whose mother saw him in her doorway the night he died at sea * The ghostly woman still seen soaking wet along the Nova Scotia shoreline, decades after her own death * America's Crybaby Bridges — the legends, the rituals, and the firsthand accounts that are genuinely hard to explain * The Sleepy Hollow Road bridge in Kentucky, the baby powder ritual, and the much darker history underneath it * The Fudge Road bridge ritual in Ohio — and why saying "mama" three times in the dark is the most unsettling thing we've covered in a while This one is for every mother out there. The folklore agrees: there is no force in the world — or out of it — quite like yours. 🎟️ Spirits with Spirits Event — Saturday, May 16th at The Saint Hotel, Key West!
