Creepin' It Real

In this very bittersweet episode, I will be doing my best to expose one last issue in the world of the paranormal; the lack of representation for female investigators on TV. This is an issue that I will putting more time into changing as I do my best to help transform this field. In the mean time, feel free to follow me on this paranormal journey via my new project, Ghouls Trip, that I have started with my friend and fellow female investigator, Hannah. Also keep on eye on the Creepin' It...

Mrs. H and her family found themselves moving into a home riddled with strange, unexplainable activity; from phantom footsteps to ghostly apparitions, it seemed to only get worse and worse. But the real cause for this haunting was unexpected, and this story serves as a reminder that you should never assume something is 100% paranormal. It could potentially cost you your life... instagram.com/creepinitrealthepodcast facebook.com/creepinitrealthepodcast mailto:creepinitrealthepodcast@gmail.com

The story of Elizabeth Bathory (the "Blood Countess") is one that gets told often among my fellow creeps. Even I was familiar with this story...or so I thought. After doing further research, I came across more details about the story of Elizabeth Bathory that don't get shared often in good detail... instagram.com/creepinitrealthepodcast facebook.com/creepinitrealthepodcast mailto:creepinitrealthepodcast@gmail.com

Dressing in costumes and going door to door for candy is something that most of us have done as children for Halloween, but have you ever stopped to wonder why we do it? instagram.com/creepinitrealthepodcast facebook.com/creepinitrealthepodcast mailto:creepinitrealthepodcast@gmail.com

As I mentioned in the previous episode, Halloween as we typically celebrate it used to be the Celtic "Samhain", so where did the name "Halloween" come from? instagram.com/creepinitrealthepodcast facebook.com/creepinitrealthepodcast mailto:creepinitrealthepodcast

Carving out pumpkins has been a long-time Halloween tradition, but are you aware of how it started? Why is it that we purchase large orange fruits and carve faces into them? Be sure to check out one of my new favorite spooky podcasts called Murder Mythtery; who's promo is featured in the begging of this episode! instagram.com/creepinitrealthepodcast facebook.com/creepinitrealthepodcast mailto:creepinitrealthepodcast@gmail.com

Did you know that witches actually spend much of their time CURSING Halloween candy? Well, according to Kimberly Daniels they do...but could this be true? Am I, a practicing witch, secretly cursing your Halloween sweets and treats? I guess you will have to listen to find out... instagram.com/creepinitrealthepodcast facebook.com/creepinitrealthepodcast mailto:creepinitrealthepodcast@gmail.com

Double, double toil and trouble! For the second part in my witch myths series, I will be going over the ingredients typically used by witches in movies and in books (such as human body parts) and explaining what they REALLY were... instagram.com/creepinitrealthepodcast facebook.com/creepinitrealthepodcast mailto:creepinitrealthepodcast@gmail.com

What's up creeps? For the first part of this mini-series I will be discussing the classic depiction of witches flying on broomsticks! I am sure you are aware that they were never actually flying through the sky...but the truth behind this depiction of witches and why we associate them with broomsticks might still surprise you! (I'll warn you, things get a little NSFW...) instagram.com/creepinitrealthepodcast facebook.com/creepinitrealthepodcast mailto:creepinitrealthepodcast@gmail.com

Vic Tandy was working in a lab at Warwick University when he began to notice strange paranormal activity going on around him. This wasn't too surprising, considering that not too far away was the cellar of the Coventry Cathedral where a similar haunting was going on. Vic, being a skeptical person, did some investigating around these hauntings and discovered the silent perpetrator behind them... instagram.com/creepinitrealthepodcast facebook.com/creepinitrealthepodcast...

After the sadness and intensity of episode 19, I decided to keep episode 20 a little more on the light-hearted side. (Just a little...) The Sallie House is one of my favorite haunted locations, but almost everything that you may have heard about this house is a lie. If you are interested in some of my personal encounters and evidence gathered at this location, check out my new blog https://ghoulstrip.blog which also contains much of the information I shared in this episode....

The story of Anneliese Michel is often regarded as one of the most terrifying real cases of demonic possession ever recorded. But if you ask me, the humans that were involved in this case were far more scary than any real demon could ever be, and the truth behind this young woman and her death is beyond heartbreaking... instagram.com/creepinitrealthepodcast facebook.com/creepinitrealthepodcast mailto:creepinitrealthepodcast@gmail.com

This is a very bittersweet episode for both Ivy and Kenzi! Ivy starts us out with one of her favorite modern ghost stories...the Dear David Twitter thread! Next, Kenzi talks about John and Wayne Carter, the two famous murderers/vampires from New Orleans! We also have some exciting news for a new upcoming paranormal investigation at a location we have covered and discussed numerous times on this podcast, and then end the episode with some slightly sad news...but don't worry! We will still...

Located in Kansas City is the beautiful Sauer Castle. But don't be fooled by its charm, because according to local legends it holds a dark past full of secrets, murder, and paranormal activity...or that's what they say at least. But what's the real story behind this small decaying Kansas City castle? Could it be haunted? instagram.com/creepinitrealthepodcast facebook.com/creepinitrealthepodcast mailto:creepinitrealthepodcast@gmail.com

What's up ghouls? We have a slightly different episode ready for ears, so buckle up! Kenzi starts us out with some spooky creepypasta vibes and reads us the Gregory Twitter thread.

It was 1692 in Salem, Massachusetts. Citizens of Salem were being prosecuted left and right for being accused of practicing witchcraft, or that's at least what everyone thought. But what you might not know is that this wasn't actually about witches or witchcraft at all, and a lot of people knew that. Although we don't know the absolute truth, we do have evidence supporting other theories, and the real motives behind these innocent killings might shock you......

The ghouls are finally back in the studio together again! For this weeks episode, we start off by discussing the current hoax that Annabelle ran away.(Seriously though Annabelle, if you are reading this, you can actually run away and come live with Ivy and her haunted dolls...) Then Ivy gets going on the history of the Lizzie Borden murders and the haunted happenings that occur inside the home! Next, Kenzie goes over the story of Countess Elizabeth Báthory and the Čachtice Castle! This one...

The Snedeker family moved into a home that was previously used as a funeral home. A series of terrifying paranormal events began to take place, so they asked Ed and Lorraine Warren for help. If you listened to episode 6 of this podcast, then these names might sound familiar because the Warrens were also involved with the Amityville Horror. So if they were involved in one fake story, could they have been involved in another? Was the Snedeker family actually being haunted?...

In this weeks episode, Kenzi goes over the lore behind Huldufolk: a.k.a. the Hidden Folk, which are very interesting and mischievous little elves from Iceland! (Sexy Gollum from Lord of the Rings is probably one of them...) Next, Ivy goes over the brief yet mysterious story of the Oakville Blobs, which were a strange clear substance that rained down over Oakville, Washington. Was it just weird poop and pee? Was it government testing? Who knows... instagram.com/twhpodcast...

Stull Cemetery, which is also known as the "Gateway to Hell", is a notoriously haunted location with many dark legends attached to it, including legends that involve Satan himself. This location is also local to me and it is something that I have known about ever since I was a kid, so you can imagine my surprise when I found out that everything I thought I knew about it wasn't true... instagram.com/creepinitrealthepodcast facebook.com/creepinitrealthepodcast...
