Today we join the cool kids and check out the Indiana State Sanatorium!

One of the newer locations to be found to be quite rife with paranormal weirdness, this location spans quite a bit of acreage with several buildings and creepy steam tunnels for you to check out!

A poltergeisty laundry room, a spirit that loves to run up and down stairs, and a very crabby man in the biggest building on the property is what you'll likely find here.

We love a good location that puts money back into the building's care, and the chance to really uncover new paranormal activity really can't be beat!

Widely considered one of the finest 14th century castles in Scotland, Balgonie Castle is also considered to be one of the most haunted locations in the U.K. as well!

What with a skeleton found under the floor in 1912, and about 600 years of fighting prior to that, it's really no wonder! Join us in meeting Green Jeannie, a boisterous pup, and floating heads. Hahahaha!

But really.

In sad news, Carrie dashes Laura's hopes of them buying Balgonie House. Also in Scotland, but not the subject of today's show.

The lesson here is don't drive through the Arizona desert at night. Ever.

We are back!! And we have missed you all so much!

We kick off our new format of SEASONS with one of the most famous locations in America - Bobby Mackey's Music World.

Starting as a slaughterhouse and spanning many incarnations since then this location has a portal to hell - maybe with a head in it, maybe not, we sure don't know - a warning sign that they are not responsible for any ghost beat downs you may receive, and some of the best country music west of Las Vegas! Wait, what?

This week Carrie tells you about a CIA report that was done in 1983 and declassified in 2003 about the potential ability for humans to enter an altered state of consciousness and be able to transcend space and time. It’s also got a connection to “Lucky Girl Syndrome,” and that amazing Reticular Activating System (RAS) we all have. Carrie teaches us how thoughts really can become things, and you don’t want to miss it!

Come with us to one of the most haunted places in America. Known for one of the most famous battles that inspired the phrase “Remember the Alamo,” this mission in the Texas desert is the heart of San Antonio. From lost children looking for their parents, to the 6 guards that appear to still be guarding the building, to a bullet ridden Davey Crockett, to the “Duke himself - John Wayne, there is no shortage of spirits here. Unfortunately, as a National Landmark and Texas Shrine, paranormal investigations are forbidden along with any equipment for detecting the phenomena. Saddle up and let’s go to the Alamo!

Arguably one of the most dangerous jobs to do, the resulting hauntings here are something straight out of a horror movie. And ones that may send you to the hospital and/or kill you.

Welcome to our new release days!

This week we take everyone to Cambria County, PA and the Cresson Sanatorium and State Prison.

This location has had many incarnations over its lifetime, and with each it's left behind a energetic echo throughout this vast complex.

This episode is dedicated to its 4 mule garage.

This week we take you to a wonderfully historic hotel in upstate New York - The Shanley Hotel!

Our dear friend, Anthony Simonelli, joins us this week and tells us all about the hauntings at this hotel built in 1845 that saw an awful lot of drama in its day. From a bordello to a speakeasy to deaths of children to hitmen still trying to rough people up in the afterlife - The Shanley is your new bucket list location. Except for the room with all the dolls. No thank you.

Welcome to part 2 of our recap of the ParaPsyCon IV at the Ohio State Reformatory! For today's sit down we chat with Greg & Kathy Feketik, founders of Tri-C Paranormal and the folks who put on this amazing annual event. We discuss exactly what it takes to put on an event of this size, how much planning goes into it, and how long it takes. We also chat about the amazing experiences they've had being part of the volunteer paranormal group that runs all of the spookier aspects of visiting the reformatory! Please give a warm HoaH Family welcome to Greg & Kathy!

Come and sit down with us as we chat with the most amazing people that were apart of, and created, the amazing ParaPsyCon IV at the ICONIC Ohio State Reformatory this past May 2023. There is so much to unpack with this event that we had to split it into 2 parts. Today we chat with the incomparable team of B.O.S.S. Paranormal (Brave Ohio Spook Seekers) who were vendors, like us, at the paracon. And to 2 of the paracon volunteers and tour guide volunteers at OSR. Folks who know the ins and outs of one of the most recognizable and spectacularly haunted penitentiaries in the country. Then join us in 2 days for part 2 of this recap as we sit down with Greg & Kathy Feketik - founders of Tri-C Paranormal, and the folks who put on this amazing weekend long event at OSR. Ladies and gentlemen, a warm HoaH Family welcome for Randy, Holly, Bill, Courtney, Gary, and Christina - new friends and family of the podcast!!

This week we go back in the archives and re-release one of our favorite topics - spiritualism and the Ouija board.

In this episode we discuss the creation and rise of spiritualism and the awful thing that is the ouija board. From the rise of the Fox Sisters, to dating tips, to ouija board demons - we break it all down. Also, Carrie makes it clear she hates all of this. Multiple times. We hope you enjoy the first episode, we're quite proud of it - technical hiccups and all!

You've seen her on the show filling in for us when needed, and she runs things behind the scenes here at HoaH too. So we had to give her her OWN episode!

Sit down with us as we talk all about Reiki, of which she has reached Master level - what it is, what it can do, how she does it, and how you can become a Reiki master yourself!

We also discuss the other hats she wears, her take on paranormal investigating and just what the heck a "celebrity handler" actually IS.

For more information on learning and becoming certified in Reiki, we recommend (no she is NOT a sponsor of this podcast):

This week we are joined by our guests Jason Roach and Zach Bennett, who did a paranormal investigation of the Trivette Clinic with Carrie a couple months back!

It's a great example of what being a paranormal investigator actually does. Collect audio and video recordings, review with the group, discuss the captures, debunk what can be, etc.

A couple of us have some tech issues, but that's the name of the game, things just happen. So sit back, check out what we captured during the investigation and let us know YOUR thoughts!

This week we take a look into the life of Father Gabriel Amorth, the Vatican's Chief Exorcist. We are joined by Erin Bush, who is filling in for Laura this week as she is on vacation in Mexico eating all the tacos. Jerk.

This man inspired the new film "The Pope's Exorcist" which has folks feeling all kinds of things about it. Come with us as we look into the life of the real priest, and his experiences. We also look at how the director of one of the most terrifying films in the world, "The Exorcist", William Friedkin, was able to meet Fr. Amorth and witness a real exorcism himself, 43 years after he terrified generation after generation.

Grab whatever protects you as we get into some seriously skin crawling things. And, spoiler alert - we are not living in a Sam and Dean Winchester/Supernatural world.

ekb* is back this week to take a deep dive with us into the Hawaiian legend of the Night Marchers.

They rise from the ocean, float along the ground with no feet, holding torches, blowing into conch shells, bang on drums, and insist you mind your own damn business. Seriously, hit the ground when you hear those drums.

We also discover what happens when 3 ADHD folks come together for an internet show. Turns out it's the same thing that happens when 2 do, except that - hey look! A quarter!!

This week we bring you an episode we released to our former Patreons from our Conspiracy Theory series!

Today (released the last week of 2021), Carrie tells us all about the most bizarre mass hysteria cases throughout history.

This week in part 2 of our series on H.H. Holmes we sit down with this great-great grandson, Jeff Mudgett.

Join us as we discuss with Jeff his search to prove Holmes was the even more infamous serial killer, Jack the Ripper, the potential links they have, and where he's at with the quest today!

This week we are revisiting the Ohio State Reformatory in celebration of our first paragon being held here next weekend 5/20-21, 2023! Built in part by inmates, this building holds the Guinness Book of World Records for the largest free standing cell block in the world. But as with all good things, that is not its only distinction. It's also one of the most haunted locations, not just in Ohio, but in the country. Here you will hear screaming, moaning, cell doors slamming, feel the rush of people running past you when you're alone, have your hair pulled, and be groped by dead inmates. It's not the best time, and we get to spend 3 days here. What were we thinking? Grab a drink to soothe your nerves and follow us into The Hole!

We are back, guys!! We have missed you so much! As today is Coronation Day for King Charles III, we are bringing to you the ghosts of the British monarchy! We've got Queen Elizabeth I, Henry VII, Anne Boleyn, the 9 Days Queen and so many more. With all the strife and bloodshed, this group was bound to continue their reigns into the after life. We also have a few changes to the show to tell you about and, our first convention is just TWO weeks away! Settle in, dear friends, adjust that fascinator, grab a cup of tea, and let's get to it.

Join Carrie and our guest host Erin Bush as we dive into the legend and history of Easter Island!  

One of the most remote islands in the world, with the most iconic stone carvings was a flourishing Polyneisian oasis. So how did the land become so barren and the population die out so fast?  

This episode is run by tiny furry overlords.

This week Carrie tells the true origin of popular phrases such as "saved by the bell", "dead ringer", "having a wake", and "blowing smoke up my a**".  

And we begin our Monday Sweary Affirmations!

This week Carrie goes it alone, as Laura is on vacation, and we all quickly find stepping into Laura's polished and perfect shoes is no easy feat. So...  

Come with us to Spike Island in Ireland! For 1300 years the island was used as a monastery, military fort, housing, and a prison on four separate occasions. None of those prison set ups went well. Had they, we wouldn't be talking about it.  

Join Carrie as she tells us of the consistent reports of a British Soldier who is frequently shot at, a hooded black entity that terrified inmates for decades, and she shares compelling photos taken by visitors to the site that is now a popular tourist attraction!

As we close out 2022 we finally introduce you to someone we've often referenced, talked to, and blamed for things in the show. Please give an awesome HoaH welcome to "erin, write that down" erin k bailey!!

Since erin is a native Hawaiian, we asked her to pick the topic for this holiday episode. And she chose Madame Pele, the Goddess of Volcanoes and Fire, and the creator of the Hawaiian Islands.

Her story and history is fascinating. People who have encountered her, or seen her face in the lava consider themselves blessed she had shown herself to them. But if you incur her wrath... woof, look out! 

Break open the bubbly and settle in as we do a deep dive into Kilauea!

In this final week of 2022, Carrie tells Laura about the super bizarre, and still unresolved story, of The Blood House on Fountain Drive.

It appears that Krampus is not the only game in town that doles out punishment to naughty children that Santa doesn't visit.

This week we tell you about 4 other beings that you REALLY don't want coming to your house. One who slices children's bellies, one who's got little "lads" that do everything from steal your food to sniffing your doors - what? One who appears as a scarecrow stalking you on lonely roads, and one whose name Carrie can't pronounce for the life of her. But that doesn't stop her from trying.

Grab a warm cup of cocoa and let us tell you what else can happen if you don't get your life right.

In an episode released on our former Patreon page, this week Laura tells us all about the cursed Hope Diamond!

A treasure of India, and stolen from a statue of one of their Gods (bad idea) this mega bauble brings mega problems to those who touch it. Its history is vast and goes back a minute or two. Through 2 royal dynasties, diamond buyers, and one VERY unfortunate postal carrier, not many have escaped this sparkler unscathed.

While we're a little divided on whether or not it's cursed, what we do agree on is that armadillos are a threat to mankind. And THAT, my friends, is the real story.

This week Laura shifts FAR away from the heart warming stories she's been bringing us on Monday, and goes right for the gore.

Welcome to the week, folks. And double check your water.

This morning, Carrie tells us of "The Man With Two Faces".

Today we take you on a field trip to California State University, Channel Islands. Except that it used to be a mental hospital. And now it's haunted with all of those poor, sad, experimented on souls. And we're not trying to enroll.

From haunted dorms that were former patient rooms to a "Scary Dairy", this institution of higher learning has way more on its curriculum than is found in the class catalog. 

Grab a buddy's hand and welcome to orientation.

This week we virtually travel to South Africa and tell you all about the Castle of Good Hope!

This week Laura tells about the wild phenomenon called Foreign Accent Syndrome. 

The result of a brain injury, but still not entirely understood, this condition is kinda scary.  

Sit with us to kick your week off right and truly weird!

This week we virtually travel to NYC and the infamous Dakota. Many will know this as the building where John Lennon lived and was murdered in front of in 1980.  

But it has a supernatural history to it as well. From a happy little girl in a yellow dress to John Lennon's "Crying Lady Ghost" to Lennon himself. We also discuss a possible curse attached to the building.  

Come on in and let's see how the other half lives!

Since we're visiting Europe this week, Carrie brings us the crazy story of The Dancing Plague of 1518.  

What started an odd curiosity of a woman who began dancing and dancing and dancing - utterly unable to stop, soon became an epidemic that had hundreds of others joining her in this massive marathon rug cutting!  

We explore the fascination of this tale that has spawned books, movies, poems, plays, and albums.  Strap on your boogie shoes and let's jive!

This week we hang out with author Jason Roach and discuss his new book "The House On Dead Man's Curve".  

Inspired by his own life experiences, this fictional story is a must read! Join us as Jason tells us all the goods, the scariest location he's ever investigated, and who he met that had Laura fan girling a tiny bit.  

Come check out out merch pre-sale at hoahpodcast.com/shop - now extended through October 31st!

This week Laura has us discussing all the changes that will occur since Queen Elizabeth II has passed away, and the new succession of her son, the new King Charles III.   

From currency, to passports, to Constitutions of the countries within the Commonwealth. There's a lot to unpack and we're glad we don't have to do any of it!  

Join us as we see what's in store for the new era of the British Monarchy!

As we prepare for our trip to London and Paris next week, in honor of that - today we bring you a former Patreon episode of our True Crime series!

Join us as Laura tells all about one of the most infamous, and still officially unsolved murderers - Jack the Ripper! She dishes on the details of the crimes and the top suspects that police have considered. 

Sit back, try to relax, and let's do some detecting!

This week's weird history is all about the Numbers Stations that began during the Cold War.  

What are they? Why are they? Who are they? We have all the questions and absolutely zero answers. 

Can you debunk this crazy phenomenon? Let us know!

We can't get enough of Gettysburg, folks. So we're heading back to tell you all about the Farnsworth House!  

A home, a civil war headquarters, and a hospital, this small farmhouse has far more than just bullets within its brick walls! From a child's ghost that likes to check things out, to a midwife who likes to tuck people in, join us for this spooky tale and pray no one sits on the edge of your bed watching you sleep.

But to kick this week off, Laura tells us about a little known pair of lovers, whose dedication to each other ran long past death.

Make that coffee with a triple shot, settle in, and have the week you'll have! 

This week we stay in Ohio for this sister episode of Fairfield County Infirmary, and tell you all about Madison Seminary!

Once a home for displaced widows and children of men who died in the Civil War it eventually lost its way and became a place where being a woman wasn't the safest thing to be here. We quickly go from a female Union spy we all want to be like when we grow up, to tales of murders to neglect and everything in between, this place has the reputation of being one of the most haunted buildings in Ohio. 

We also dish on our trip to Gettysburg. What are you waiting for get on in here. We've got scary dolls!

This week Carrie delves into Supernatural Laws. Yes, actual legalities that can land you hefty fines, or even jail time!  

No better way to start the week, folks. Let's keep it safe out there.  

Enjoy, and have the week you'll have.

Come with us to Ohio and the Fairfield County Infirmary!  

Open for 170 years there was nothing but goodness and light. The end.  

Just kidding. There was a dungeon. And an orphanage. Next to each other. We'd leave it at that, but that's not how we roll.   Grab your favorite Raggedy Ann doll and let us tell you EVERYTHING.

This Monday Laura takes us down the rabbit hole to the world of legit Mad Hatters!  Far from being the affable, tea party having gems in Alice in Wonderland, she discusses the real cases of hatters turning mad.  

Happy Monday, have the week you'll have.

This week we travel to Norfolk, England and the gorgeous and historic Raynham Hall! 

Owned by the same family for generations, apparently all named John and George, its glamour and stature is a sight to behold. But is there another, more mysterious and possible malevolent sight you may see as well?  

Join us as we discuss the wild history of the Hall and the validity of its sole apparition haunting it - The Brown Lady.  

Also, our merch shop is open! Come grab your HoaH gear! Sale runs now through Sept. 30th!  Hoahpodcast.com/shop

This week we discuss one of the most famous haunted objects - Peggy the Doll.

Peggy came to the attention of the paranormal community when a researcher posted her photo and video on Facebook, causing over 80 people to claim they had some form of physical and mental ailments befall them, by simply looking at her images.

Possibly housing the angry tormented spirit of a woman from the Holocaust, this doll now requires a release of liability to be signed when you go to see her in person at Zak Bagans Haunted Museum in Vegas.

Settle in for a wild tale and let us know - are you brave enough to visit her?

Carrie is unsettled and creeped out the whole time, Laura tries to silence her new puppy, and our merch pre-sale is happening NOW. Please support us and go get some HoaH gear!!

Laura is off galavanting the globe - as she does. So this week we are bringing you one of our Patreon true crime episodes - New York's most fantastic murder - the murder of Michael Malloy!

We'll be back with a doozy of an episode next week, full of ALL the content warnings. Until then, grab a drink and settle in as Carrie tells us all about the amazing Irishman who simply wouldn't die.
