Beskrivelse

What if one of the most terrifying movies ever made… wasn’t just fiction? In this episode of Inherited Hauntings, we take you deep into Georgetown, Washington DC, where cobblestone streets and luxury homes sit on top of something far darker. From the infamous Exorcist Steps to centuries-old buildings with chilling pasts, this episode uncovers the true story that inspired The Exorcist… and the eerie events that followed its release. We explore the Old Stone House, where visitors report an unshakable feeling of being choked… The former Lydia English School, once turned Civil War hospital, where trauma still lingers… The bizarre 10PM ghost of Foxhall Manor… And the unsettling mystery of Halcyon House, filled with hidden rooms, tunnels, and a past that feels almost intentionally haunted. But the deeper we go… the more one question rises to the surface: Did The Exorcist tap into something that was already there… or did it wake something up? This is more than a haunted places podcast. This is a story about history, power, and what happens when the past is never fully buried. 👻 Expect true spooky stories, real ghost stories, and one of the most unsettling paranormal podcast episodes we’ve ever recorded. 👉 Have you ever experienced something you couldn’t explain?

episode The Smurl Family Haunting and The Conjuring Last Rites Explained cover

The Smurl Family Haunting and The Conjuring Last Rites Explained

The Smurl haunting is one of the most infamous paranormal cases ever investigated by Ed and Lorraine Warren; a terrifying story involving violent attacks, disturbing manifestations, and a family who claimed their home was infested by something evil. In this episode of Inherited Hauntings, we break down the documented experiences of Jack and Janet Smurl, explore the Warrens’ investigation as described in their book, and compare the real case to The Conjuring: Last Rites. We also give our honest thoughts on the movie: what worked, what didn’t, and how it stacks up against the actual haunting. Whether you believe the haunting was demonic, psychological, exaggerated, or something stranger, this story remains one of the darkest chapters in modern paranormal history. Listener story?

Haunted Paintings and Ghost Photos: The Brown Lady, The Crying Boy, and the Art That Watches Back

Can emotion become trapped inside an object? Can a spirit become attached to an image? In this episode of Inherited Hauntings, we explore some of the world's most infamous haunted paintings and cursed works of art. From the mysterious photograph of the Brown Lady of Raynham Hall to the unsettling legends surrounding The Crying Boy, The Hands Resist Him, The Anguished Man, and the viral charity shop portrait that terrified multiple owners, we examine the stories, eyewitness accounts, and chilling claims that continue to fuel debate decades later. Some of these images have been linked to fires, ghostly apparitions, unexplained activity, and visitors who swear they felt something watching them. Whether these stories are paranormal, psychological, or something in between, one thing is certain: after this episode, you may never look at artwork the same way again. 👻 Have a paranormal story of your own?
