America is filled with winding paths, abandoned roads, and trails that predate the arrival of European settlers.&nbsp; But few are as storied, or as haunted, as Missouri’s Zombie Road…

Ep 02: Missouri's Zombie Road

&nbsp; Sometimes, hauntings and legends spread like a game of telephone.&nbsp; The story starts out with the truth and, as it’s passed from person to person, it morphs and changes, picking up sinister and mysterious details along the way until it becomes a thing of its own.&nbsp; Whatever the truth is, all that the residents of the former town of Pere Cheney needed to know to prove that the witch’s curse was real was to look around at their dead.

Ep 03: Cursed Land--Pere Cheney, Michigan

Danger is inherent in the deep woods of the American landscape. Some places in America are famous for just one unexplained phenomenon or event, but Massachusetts' Freetown-Fall River State Forest is home to dozens of strange things of various types—from occult activity and murders, to cryptids, to physical locations with unexplainable “energies.”

Ep 04: Beware the Woods--Freetown-Fall River

In this episode, we discuss the Central Indiana Hospital for the Insane,&nbsp;now referred to simply as Indiana’s Central State Hospital.&nbsp;As you'll learn, just a few miles outside of downtown Indianapolis lies the skeleton of what was once a hospital of horrors. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Music Credits: Classic Horror 3 Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/ Zombie Hoodoo Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/ Come Play with Me Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/

Ep 01: Central State Asylum

Who hasn't heard a version of the haunted hitchhiker story? A driver on a dark, foggy road late at night comes upon a woman in a beautiful dress.&nbsp;Against his better judgment, the driver gives her a ride home.&nbsp;Eventually, the ghostly rider disappears, leaving the driver wondering who…or what, he just had in his car. Chicago’s Resurrection Mary is perhaps America’s most famous iteration of the haunted hitchhiker legend. But is there some truth to this particular tale? Records show that there may be more to this legend than fiction. &nbsp;  Music Credits:  &nbsp;  Classic Horror 3 Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License  Zombie Hoodoo Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License  Come Play with Me Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License

Ep 05: The Legend of Resurrection Mary

It began when John Bell witnessed a strange, unnatural creature which vaguely resembled a dog. It ended with Bell’s death.&nbsp; In the sleepy town of Adams, Tennessee on a small family farm, one of the most infamous American paranormal events occurred over a period of four years. From late 1816 to 1820, the Bell family was tormented by an entity that came to be known as the Bell Witch. Together, they experienced horrors such as seeing phantom animals, ghosts, hearing disembodied sounds, enduring physical torments and illness and, if the legend is to be believed…the eventual murder of the family patriarch, John Bell Sr. Music Credits: Classic Horror 3 Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License ...

Ep 06: The Bell Witch

As schoolchildren, we’re taught about the founding of America. Like most countries, we have a rich, fascinating, and imperfect history. Colonists came over from England and established settlements, often clashing with the residing Native Americans. Life was hard, full of starvation, disease, and conflict. We have preserved much of this history—you can visit Plymouth Rock and a replica of the Mayflower in Massachussetts today, or stop by Colonial Williamsburg in Virginia and tour historic buildings and reenactments of early American life. But for all of our preservation and knowledge of colonial history, we still have no idea what happened to the lost colony of Roanoke or its many residents, who disappeared without a trace by 1590.

Ep 07: Roanoke: The Lost Colony

Once a place for conquistadors, salvaging, and adventures, the railroad industry transformed Key West into the largest and most luxurious city in all of 19th-century Florida. Today, it’s a popular vacation spot, a place where the free spirited can go to unplug and get away from it all. But Key West is also a haunted city, and the La Concha Hotel with its many spirits are a large part of its ghostly atmosphere.
