Episode 45 - Civil War Ghosts - The Battle of Shiloh

Episode 53 - Case Files - The Wind and Stone

In this case file episode, Christy and Kathy revisit The Wind and Stone in Lone Wolf, Oklahoma, a historic and antique amusement park and racetrack in the Quartz Mountains that now operates as a campground and event center, and review its layered history including Native ceremonial grounds, a former Army post, and a fatal July 4, 1964 racetrack accident that killed a four-year-old spectator. They outline reported activity—items falling from shelves, people feeling touched, a ghostly girl and a young woman seen on the grounds, voices, shadow figures, and doors opening and closing—while noting a security “orb” video likely caused by an insect on the lens. Across two investigations, they capture a childlike “mama” EVP outdoors, experience an unexplained door closing in the dorm hallway, observe lights switching on upstairs in the A-frame, record possible EVPs (“get/keep back,” “yeah”), hear loud knocks, see cat ball activations, and document an unusual whistling sound during an Estes session. Christy shares psychic impressions of a helpful male tied to the property, a dark-haired young girl linked to a fire, a playful child named Anna in the conference building, and a transient WWII-era military spirit.

Episode 52 - A Year of Questions, Doubts, Discoveries... and the Occasional Eye Roll

On their one-year anniversary episode, Christy and Kathy reflect on how the podcast grew from 2:00 AM debates, and their goal of balancing psychic and skeptical perspectives across case files, cryptids, and broader “abnormal” topics. They thank listeners and share statistics such as the top countries that have downloaded episodes. They answer questions and discuss popular episodes (Episode 1, Kendall’s, The Psychic, and an EVP episode), and favorites, key disagreements (photos, orbs), compelling EVPs (“din-din,” Beatty Mansion), disappointing cases, scariest locations, misconceptions, equipment skepticism, hot takes, and invite emails, stories, and future topic requests.

Episode 51 - Automatic Writing

In this episode, Christy and Kathy explore automatic writing—writing perceived as guided by spirits, the subconscious, or other external forces—and debate paranormal versus psychological explanations like the ideomotor effect, dissociation, cryptomnesia, and altered states. They trace the practice chronologically from ancient Chinese fuji spirit writing and the Oracle of Delphi’s trance traditions through medieval mysticism and occult associations, then to the 19th-century Spiritualist movement (including the Fox sisters) and prominent figures such as Pearl Curran (Patience Worth), Blavatsky, Swedenborg, Andrew Jackson Davis, Hildegard of Bingen, Helene Smith’s alleged Mars communications, and William Stainton Moses. Christy shares her own investigation experience with hand-controlled writing and both discuss potential dangers, spiritual protections, and listener outreach for stories.

Episode 50 - Civil War Ghosts - The Battle of Antietam

In this episode, Christy and Kathy continue their Civil War Ghost series on Antietam National Battlefield in Sharpsburg, Maryland, pairing battle history and eyewitness testimony with modern paranormal reports and skeptical explanations. They outline Antietam (Sept. 17, 1862) as the deadliest single day in American military history—and trace key phases from the Cornfield and Dunker Church to the Sunken Road (“Bloody Lane”) and Burnside Bridge. They discuss intense casualty figures, post-battle uses of Dunker Church, and Gardner’s photographs, then review hauntings like phantom gunfire, gunpowder smells, footsteps, whispers, shadow figures, vanishing soldiers, singing, blue orbs, and marching, weighing residual versus intelligent hauntings and psychological priming. They close with a Memorial Day tribute, invite listener stories and emails, and preview their June 19 one-year anniversary/50th episode with a bonus show and optional listener Q&A reading request.

Episode 49 - Cryptid Files - The Slenderman

In this episode, Christy and Kathy open another cryptid file featuring The Slender Man. They contrast the well-known 2009 origin—Eric Knudsen (“Victor Surge”) creating unsettling Photoshop images and captions on the Something Awful forum—with a darker “Watcher in the Woods” concept and the idea that Slender Man “feeds” on attention as modern folklore blurs fiction and plausibility. They outline traits that solidified through collective online storytelling (tall, faceless, suited, tentacle-like limbs, forests, children, “slender sickness”) and cite Marble Hornets as a key expansion. They discuss alleged sightings in California, England, Germany, Arkansas, and Ohio with skeptical explanations, and cover the 2014 Ouachita stabbing case, its insanity verdicts, releases, and later escape attempt. The episode ends with a call for listener story submissions.
