CONTENT WARNING: Discussion of child death, car accident, & griefIn 1957, two sisters were killed in a tragic car accident in a small English town. A year later, their mother gave birth to twins. What happened next is either the most insane series of coincidences in history, or proof that we don’t understand death at all.This episode dives deep into one of the most documented and disturbing reincarnation cases ever recorded. We’re talking birthmarks in impossible places, kids recognizing locations they’d never been to, spontaneous memories of a fatal accident, and predictions made before birth that actually came true.I’ll walk you through the entire story - the tragedy, the bizarre rebirth, the mounting evidence, and yeah, the skeptical explanations too. Because honestly? Even the rational arguments can’t fully explain what happened to the Pollock family.Fair warning: this one starts dark and gets progressively weirder. We’re covering child death, trauma, and some genuinely unsettling details that’ll have you questioning everything you think you know about consciousness and the afterlife.Whether you’re a believer, a skeptic, or somewhere in between, this case is absolutely wild. And spoiler alert - I’m telling you upfront that I believe something unexplainable happened here. But you can decide for yourselfGrab a drink, get comfortable, and prepare to have your mind absolutely blown.This is the story of the Pollock twins.REFERENCES & RESOURCES**Primary Sources:**- Stevenson, Ian. “Twenty Cases Suggestive of Reincarnation” (1974) - University of Virginia Press.

The Goldfield Hotel stands as Nevada’s most haunted building - but the real story is far stranger than any ghost tale.Deep in the Nevada desert sits a four-story monument to greed that’s been abandoned for 80 years, yet refuses to stay quiet. The Goldfield Hotel was built during the last great gold rush of the American West, when mining magnate George Wingfield ruled an entire state and 20,000 fortune-seekers flocked to a town that shouldn’t exist.But when the gold ran out, something else moved in.From the infamous Room 109 where chains drag across floors in empty rooms, to “The Stabber” who lunges at visitors with phantom knives, to voices of children echoing from abandoned mine shafts beneath the basement - the Goldfield Hotel has earned its reputation as one of America’s most actively haunted locations.We separate the documented history from the manufactured folklore, exploring how a cattle driver turned gambler became Nevada’s most powerful man, why this opulent hotel was built on top of mining graves, and what happens when paranormal investigators capture footage that defies explanation.*Content Warning: Discussions of suicide, violence, and disturbing paranormal phenomena*-----Resources & ReferencesHistorical Sources- "Nevada Historical Society Archives" - George Wingfield papers and Goldfield documentation- **Esmeralda County Records** - Hotel construction and ownership documents- **Goldfield Historical Society** - Local history and firsthand accounts- **University of Nevada Special Collections** - Mining era newspapers and photographsParanormal Investigation Reports- **Ghost Adventures (2008)** - Original documentation and video evidence- **Ghost Hunters Investigation Files** - Audio recordings and temperature readings- **Nevada Paranormal Research Society** - Ongoing investigation reports- **Independent researcher documentation** - Multiple EVP recordings and witness testimoniesKey Publications- *“George Wingfield: Owner and Operator of Nevada”* by Elizabeth Raymond- *“Nevada Ghost Towns & Mining Camps”* by Stanley Paher- *“Goldfield: The Last Gold Rush on the Western Frontier”* by Sally Zanjani- *“Haunted Nevada”* by Janice OberdingDocumentary Sources- **Travel Nevada Tourism Board** - Official historical documentation- **National Register of Historic Places** - Architectural and historical records- **Nevada State Historic Preservation Office** - Building preservation reports- **Local newspaper archives** - Tonopah Times-Bonanza, Goldfield Chronicle (1900s-1940s)Verification NotesAll paranormal claims presented are based on documented witness testimonies, published investigation reports, and recorded evidence from credible paranormal research organizations.

Listener discretion advised.*Deep in the Connecticut wilderness lies the abandoned ruins of what might be America’s most cursed settlement. Dudleytown was founded in the 1740s by families carrying a supposed generational curse from Tudor England - and for nearly a century, tragedy after tragedy struck its residents until the entire community was abandoned to the forest.In this episode, we dive deep into the dark history of this notorious ghost town, from the political executions that allegedly cursed the Dudley family line, to the mysterious deaths, disappearances, and psychological breakdowns that plagued the settlement’s residents. We’ll explore the documented accounts of colonial-era hauntings, the modern paranormal investigations that captured ghostly figures on film, and the reason why this Connecticut forest has been completely closed to the public for over 50 years.Was Dudleytown the victim of a supernatural curse, or just a failed settlement whose tragic history spawned one of New England’s most persistent ghost stories?

And I'm thoroughly convinced it’s actively hunting people, not haunting.We’re talking 30+ documented deaths since the 1950s. People having dreams about a canyon they’ve never heard of, then driving hundreds of miles to die there. Cult activity in the 60s-80s with animal sacrifices and occult ceremonies that might have cursed the place. Cars breaking down at impossible rates, electronics going haywire, phantom apparitions, and temperature drops that defy science.This isn’t your typical ghost story - this place is a predator. From the woman in white on the bridges to YouTube investigations gone wrong, Turnbull Canyon is actively calling people to their deaths. And the light at the end of the tunnel? Is the incredible Survival Story of a Young Woman. TRIGGER WARNING!!  - This episode is not recommended for minors, this episode contains discussions including assault and murder of humans and animals & some of the content may be disturbing.

Don Julián Santana found a dead child in the canals back in the 1950s, and what started as a simple memorial became a decades-long obsession that created one of the world's most genuinely haunted locations.This isn't your typical tourist trap ghost story - we've got consistent paranormal reports spanning decades, dolls that move on their own, whispers of dead children, and electronic equipment that goes haywire for no reason. Plus, Julián himself died in the exact same spot where he found that first girl's body 50 years later. Coincidence? I don't fucking think so.If you're into true hauntings, Mexican folklore, or just want to hear about a place that'll make your skin crawl, this episode is for you. Fair warning though - after hearing this story, you might never look at dolls the same way again.---**References & Resources:**• Mexico City Tourism Board - Xochimilco official documentation• "Haunted Places: The National Directory" - Dennis William Hauck• Atlas Obscura - Island of the Dolls entry• Paranormal investigations by Ghost Adventures (Travel Channel, 2014)• Documentary: "The Island of Lost Dolls" - Destination Truth• Local boat operator testimonials - Xochimilco Tourism Collective• Mexico News Daily archives on Don Julián Santana• Smithsonian Magazine feature on Xochimilco UNESCO site• Academic paper: "Death Customs and Folklore in Mexican Culture" - Universidad Nacional• EVP recordings archive - International Ghost Hunters SocietyHello to all my fellow wanderers of the weird... the curious collectors of the uncanny... the strange and unusual souls who feel most at home in the shadows.

Plus, I’ll tell you exactly why I think this forest might actually be alive - and hunting, not haunting. Fair warning: this episode will make you question everything you thought you knew about reality.-----# References & Resources**Primary Sources:**- Archaeological findings: Starčevo–Kőrös–Criș Neolithic settlement (6500 BC)- Emil Barnea UFO photographs (August 18, 1968)- Scientific soil analysis reports of Poiana Rotunda clearing- Electromagnetic anomaly documentation from Cluj University studies**Key Locations:**- Hoia-Baciu Forest, Cluj County, Transylvania, Romania- Poiana Rotunda (The Round Clearing)- Valea Lungă archaeological site- Cluj-Napoca Ethnographic Museum vicinity**Documentary Sources:**- Featured investigations: Ghost Adventures, Destination Truth, Expedition X- Local folklore collections from Cluj-Napoca region- Romanian paranormal research archives- Multiple eyewitness accounts spanning 1960s-2025**Note:** All information presented is based on documented reports, scientific studies, and verified eyewitness accounts.

This lighthouse off the Oregon coast is absolutely insane - and I mean that in the most terrifying way possible. We’re talking about Tillamook Rock Lighthouse, but everyone calls it Terrible Tilly because, honestly, what else would you call a place that’s basically a death trap perched on a rock in the middle of the Pacific Ocean?So picture this: it’s 1879, and someone thought it would be a brilliant idea to build a lighthouse on this tiny, wave-battered rock that’s constantly getting demolished by 100-foot waves. The construction alone killed multiple people, and that was just the beginning. The lighthouse keepers who got stationed there? Let’s just say their job description should have included “must be okay with potential death by giant wave or complete mental breakdown.”I’m talking about keepers getting swept into the ocean, supply boats that couldn’t even reach the rock for months at a time, and storms so intense that waves would crash over the entire 130-foot structure. These guys were literally trapped on a rock with no way off, watching the ocean try to kill them every single day. And the stories of what happened to some of these keepers… honestly, you’re going to need to hear this.Trust me, after this episode, you’ll understand why Terrible Tilly earned its nickname and why it’s considered one of the most haunted and dangerous lighthouses in America. This is lighthouse horror at its absolute finest.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​**RESOURCES FOR FACT-CHECKING & REFERENCE:**- Oregon Historical Society Archives- U.S. Lighthouse Service Records- Coast Guard Historical Records- Maritime Accident Reports (1879-1957)- University Research Papers on Tillamook Rock- Local Newspaper Archives (1879-present)Paranormal Investigation Reports (2000-present)Hello to all my fellow wanderers of the weird... the curious collectors of the uncanny... the strange and unusual souls who feel most at home in the shadows.

Built over 17 years by the ambitious George Clarke IV, this neoclassical masterpiece was once the largest private home in America - and it’s been scaring the shit out of people for over 200 years.From the mysterious family curse that supposedly doomed all women who lived there, to the 2013 Ghost Hunters investigation that captured some of their most compelling evidence ever, Hyde Hall has it all. We’ll explore the Clarke family’s rise and fall, the mansion’s near-demolition in the 1960s, and the documented paranormal activity that includes full-body apparitions, responsive phenomena, and infrared camera evidence that still can’t be explained.Whether you’re a believer or a skeptic, the sheer volume of documented paranormal reports from this architectural wonder will leave you questioning what’s really happening in those 50 rooms overlooking Otsego Lake.Resources & References**Primary Sources:**- Hyde Hall Official Website: www.hydehall.org- New York State Parks - Hyde Hall Historic Site- National Register of Historic Places documentation (1986)- Clarke Family Papers Archive (Cornell University)**Television & Media:**- Ghost Hunters Season 9, Episode 16: “Hyde and Seek” (SyFy, October 30, 2013)- Haunted History PBS Documentary (2014)- Various paranormal investigation reports and EVP recordings**Books & Articles:**- “Hyde Hall: A Guide to the Mansion and Its History” - Friends of Hyde Hall- National Historic Landmark designation documentation- Regional historical society records and publications**Investigation Groups:**- The Atlantic Paranormal Society (TAPS) - Ghost Hunters team- Orange County New York Paranormal- Friends of Hyde Hall paranormal documentation files**Additional Information:**- Philip Hooker architectural documentation- Cooperstown Chamber of Commerce visitor information- Glimmerglass State Park resources**Visit Hyde Hall:**- Tours available May-October (check website for current schedule)- Special “Hyde & Shriek” ghost tours in October- Private paranormal investigations by appointment- Located at 267 Glimmerglass State Park Road, Cooperstown, NY*All paranormal claims presented are based on documented reports and eyewitness accounts.
