Beskrivelse

We had an incredible time attending **FranknFest in Port Huron, Michigan**, where we had the opportunity to sit down with paranormal investigator **Heath Moore** from **Trapped Inside Paranormal**. If you love haunted history, real investigations, and locations with a dark past, this is an episode you won't want to miss. The **Old Licking County Jail** in Newark, Ohio, has become one of the Midwest's most talked-about haunted locations. Built in the late 1800s, the jail housed inmates for well over a century and witnessed countless stories of violence, tragedy, despair, and death. Like many historic jails, its walls have absorbed generations of human emotion, leaving many to wonder whether some of those spirits never truly left. During our conversation, Heath takes us through the fascinating history of the jail, explaining how it operated, what daily life was like for inmates, and why the building has earned a reputation for paranormal activity. He shares stories of former prisoners, reports of executions, and the difficult conditions that existed within the aging structure. Of course, history is only part of the story. Heath discusses some of the most compelling paranormal experiences reported by investigators and visitors alike. Shadow figures moving through empty cell blocks, unexplained voices echoing through deserted hallways, footsteps with no visible source, mysterious cold spots, and intelligent responses captured during investigations are just a few of the phenomena that have made the Old Licking County Jail a destination for paranormal enthusiasts from across the country. We also dive into Heath's experiences as a member of **Trapped Inside Paranormal**, discussing how the team approaches investigations with both an open mind and a healthy dose of skepticism. Rather than jumping to conclusions, the team focuses on documenting evidence, ruling out natural explanations, and allowing the history of each location to guide the investigation. One of the highlights of the interview is hearing Heath describe some of the most memorable moments he's personally experienced inside the jail. Whether you're a believer, a skeptic, or somewhere in between, the stories are fascinating and offer a glimpse into what makes this location so unique. As always, we also spend time discussing the importance of preserving historic buildings. Locations like the Old Licking County Jail are more than just haunted attractions—they're important pieces of American history that tell the stories of the people who lived, worked, and, in many cases, died within their walls.

episode Haunted America - The Driskill Hotel cover

Haunted America - The Driskill Hotel

Deep in the heart of Austin, Texas stands one of the most iconic and haunted hotels in America—the legendary Driskill Hotel. Built in 1886 by cattle baron Jesse Driskill, this historic landmark has hosted presidents, celebrities, politicians, and thousands of guests over its long and storied history. But behind its grand marble staircases and elegant Romanesque architecture lies something far more unsettling. In this episode of Haunted America, we uncover the chilling legends and documented paranormal encounters that have made the Driskill a hotspot for ghost hunters and skeptics alike. From the spirit of Jesse Driskill himself—still said to roam the halls of the hotel he built and lost—to the tragic story of the little girl whose laughter and bouncing ball are still heard echoing through the stairwell, the hotel is filled with unexplained activity that defies logic. We also dive into the infamous Room 525, where multiple tragic stories of heartbreak and loss have led to claims of ghostly brides wandering the halls in search of peace. Guests and staff have reported phantom cigar smoke, flickering lights, disembodied voices, and the feeling of being watched when no one is there. Is the Driskill truly haunted—or is it simply a place so rich in history and emotion that it refuses to let go of the past? Step inside… if you dare. Because once you check in to the Driskill, you may not be the only guest in your room.

Wicked Curious Radio - Where the Dead Still Sail

The sea has always belonged to the living and the dead. In this chilling live episode of Wicked Curious, we voyage into the haunted waters of New England to explore some of the region’s most enduring maritime legends: the Dead Ship of Harpswell and the fiery phantom known as the Palatine Light. For generations, sailors, fishermen, and coastal villagers reported seeing ghostly vessels emerging from the fog—ships with no crew, no voices, and no hope of reaching harbor. Was the Dead Ship of Harpswell truly a harbinger of death, appearing before a fisherman was lost at sea?  In the episode of Wicked Curious we’ll uncover other coastal mysteries from the waters of Casco Bay and beyond. Dim the lantern, listen for the foghorn, and keep your eyes on the horizon.
