Description

Join us inside the former home of author James Thurber—where a ghostly experience in 1915 inspired his short story The Night the Ghost Got In.

In this episode of Paranormal Is My Normal, we speak with Thurber House operations director Leah Wharton about the home’s unusual history, including:

  • Its foundation atop the former Ohio Lunatic Asylum

  • A tragic death in the upstairs bedroom

  • James Thurber’s chilling encounter that inspired one of his most well-known stories

We also:

  • Feature a dramatic reading of The Night the Ghost Got In

  • Conduct an EVP session inside the home

  • Reflect on what “activity” really means when investigating

Sometimes, the quietest nights tell the most compelling stories.
