Hey hi! I literally start this episode by saying that I'm going to keep the yapping to a minimum, and guess how that went for me? This week, I am diving into the Brazilian poltergeist case that ended Maria Jose Ferreira's life. I also divulge an embarrassing childhood secret and weird lessons I learned at church camp.
Hey! Life is chaos and I'm gonna complain about it. Then I'll pay you back with a little story about the Ackley House, the first house to ever be declared haunted by a court of law.
Anyone still tuned in? Allow me to re-introduce myself and explain what I've been up to. After that, we'll dive into the story of Robert the Doll.
Hey, hi, hello! Welcome to a peek into my brain. I'm delirious after a day of educating the youths and I wanna yell at you about sharks. Specifically, the wild story of the 1916 Jersey Shore shark attacks. Should I watch Jaws?
Mayor of Yapville checking back in for duty. After a chatty little catch-up, we dive into the story of the infamous Linda Vista Community Hospital in Los Angeles, California.

Well, hello there! I almost feel like I need to re-introduce myself, it's been so long. We're kicking off the (second) return of Station 59 with the story of the McRaven House, the most haunted home in Mississippi. Bad luck seems to have followed this home since it was first built, and we've got a slew of ghosts to prove it.
You're not gonna want to miss this one! On today's episode, I am joined by Vinny Carbone, a paranormal investigator and lecturer with an impressive résumé. We discuss Amityville, the psychology of a haunting, the ups and downs of ghost hunting, and so much more!

We have a lot to catch up on! Besides my recent life, we're also going to discuss a ghost story. Today, I'm bringing you the horrifying tale of Pennhurst State School and Hospital. As usual, I have a lot of opinions about this one.
Sometimes life gets hard, but there's nothing that a good ghost story can't help with. That's what I'm telling myself at least. Today, we're going across the pond to talk about the Black Monk of Pontefract, the UK's most violent haunting. I really do love a good poltergeist.
I'm driving the babble bus today. The very spooky story of the very haunted St. Albans Sanatorium in Radford, Virginia comes along with bonus tangents about the history of psychiatric treatments, haunted houses, and my secret ghost-hunting wishes.

If I'd realized sooner that this was my 50th episode, I would've made a fuss about it, but anyway, hi!

Let's get into it.

You know in Disney's "Haunted Mansion" how there's just a zillion different ghosts all chilling in one spot? That's basically the Shanley Hotel. From a loving hotel owner to an angry child murderer and everything in between, the Shanley in Napanoch, New York is home to a whole cast of characters. Today, we're gonna get into as many as we can before the plague catches up to me again.

Today we're curing bad vibes with caffeine, and I can't decide if that's a good move or a bad one. On this episode, it's another compilation, as we deep-dive into three paranormal games/rituals that have gone viral online. I tell you all about the elevator game, the three kings ritual, and the Midnight Man, and go off on a couple tangents along the way, of course.

I’m really putting my story-telling skills to the test with this episode. Today, I decided to keep it local-ish with the haunting of the Sallie House in Atchison, Kansas. This is easily one of my favorite scary stories of all-time, and I’m so excited to share it with you! Dare I say this might be my spookiest episode yet? I’ll let you be the judge of that.
