Halloween week gets weirder than ever on The Box of Oddities as Kat and Jethro dive into the chilling mystery of electronic voice phenomena (EVPs) — and why some recordings might not come from the past… but from the future. 😱📼 From eerie predictions like “April 10th… fire” to spectral warnings whispered before tragedy strikes, this episode explores whether time-slipping ghosts are trying to send us messages across the timeline. Could hauntings be echoes from events that haven’t happened yet?
Then, Kat reveals the deeply bizarre legacy of Italian scientist Elfizio Marini, whose life’s work involved petrifying human body parts into polished décor — including a stone-fleshed table he gifted to Napoleon III. Because nothing says power and prestige like enjoying a sandwich over someone’s literal brains and lungs. 🍽️🧠
Plus:• The EVP anomaly caught in a recent crossover episode• The haunting physics behind retrocausality• Halloween traditions that make zero sense (looking at you, horse-skull caroling)• A peek behind the curtain of the final stretch of the fall tour 👻🎤
Whether you’re a believer, a skeptic, or a beautiful freak somewhere in between — buckle up. The future might already be haunting you.
