April 18, 2023 08:00 - 1 hour - 44.3 MBFor the first time in nearly a year, we're back to recording in-person at Zoey's dining room table — and something about this situation is making us unhinged! Welcome to the first of (at least) two truly chaotic episodes of Haunted Hospitality. We're kicking things off with one of Robin's longtime bucket list topics: the Battery Carriage House Inn in Charleston, South Carolina! (Now known as 20 South Battery.) This antebellum structure has two very well known ghosts: the Gentleman Ghost (Ro...
Ep 106 - Tales from Honey Island Swamp
April 11, 2023 08:00 - 57 minutes - 39.5 MBIn this week's episode, Zoey covers two spooky stories from Honey Island Swamp in Louisiana. This is a protected, 70,000 acre marshland home to all sorts of creatures and outlaws. First, she tells us about the Honey Island Swamp Rat Killings, a story of two men who were killed and their bodies robbed. This lead to multiple mobs formed in town as the people chased down the two men they believed to be responsible for their deaths. Content warning for lynching. Then, she tells us about the Ho...
Ep 105 – Witches, Mermaids, and the Three-Legged Lady
April 04, 2023 08:00 - 1 hour - 43 MBFor Haunted Hospitality's second pod-iversary celebration episode, we're exploring three stories of spooky ladies from the South! We get wild with our first segment, so skip to minute 43 for this content. First up: Four people were put on trial for witchcraft in South Carolina back in 1792. While this trial took place on a farm and wasn't actually legal, there were plenty of witnesses taking the stand. They accused Mary Ingleman, in particular, of some rather harsh tricks. On two separate o...
Ep 104 - The Ongoing Search for Jennifer Kesse
March 28, 2023 08:00 - 56 minutes - 38.9 MBIn this week's episode, Zoey covers the unsolved disappearance of Jennifer Kesse, a 24 year old woman who went missing from her condo in January 2006. Jennifer, who was known for always being in touch with loved ones, was reported missing on January 24th, 2005 around 3 pm after no one had heard from her since the previous night. However, because she was an adult, police assumed that she just got in a fight with her boyfriend and left. Eventually the Kesse family was able to convince the pol...

March 21, 2023 08:00 - 1 hour - 42.2 MBOn November 22, 1963, President John F. Kennedy rode in the backseat of a dark blue convertible through the streets of Dallas, Texas, where up to 200,000 people stood on sidewalks to get their glimpse of the President. The route was public knowledge, pre-planned to get as big of an audience as possible. The President would be running for reelection soon, and he wanted to ensure he had the Texas vote. Then, at 12:30 p.m., three shots rang out. In this episode, we cover JFK's assassination, t...
Ep 102 - The Queen of Country and Ghosts
March 14, 2023 08:00 - 49 minutes - 34.4 MBIn this week's episode, Zoey takes us to visit the Loretta Lynn Ranch. This 3,500 plot of land is home to the Queen of Country's home, plenty of things to do for those who like the outdoors, and ghosts! While Loretta Lynn was alive, she would have been the first to tell you that her house is haunted. She had one rule: don't mess with the ghosts and they won't mess with you. In this episode, Zoey shares all the juicy, ghosty tidbits that the family and employees offered up. And the Loretta L...
Ep 101 – Frights in the Wild 3: That Woman Was Definitely Following Them
March 07, 2023 09:00 - 51 minutes - 35.7 MBIt's time for another Frights in the Wild, where we scour the Internet for personal stories of people encountering creepy, scary, or generally hard-to-explain things out in nature. And boy, did this slate of encounters deliver! Both Robin and Zoey were scared to be alone after recording this episode. So if that's your jam, this episode is for you. From mysterious hunched over creatures that inspire a shared dream, to a years-long haunting in an abandoned cemetery, to a possible instance of ...
Ep 100 - Join us at the Partridge Inn
February 28, 2023 09:00 - 1 hour - 44.6 MBWow. 100 Episodes. We can hardly believe it. Thank you so much to everyone who continues to tune in and listen! This episode, we're excited to finally announce that we are recording on Location at The Partridge Inn in Augusta, GA. In our hotel room, Zoey shares her notes about Emily, the resident ghost, and other spooky locations around Augusta. But first, Robin shares a Something Spooky sent in by faithful listener, Abby. Thank you all again! We would never have gotten it this far witho...
Ep 99 - To the Memory of a Female Stranger
February 21, 2023 09:00 - 1 hour - 43 MBThe Female Stranger is one of Alexandria, Virginia's best known pieces of folklore. According to legend, a woman and her maybe-husband travelled from outside of the country to Alexandria in 1816, only for her to die from an illness a few weeks later. Though sad, this story wouldn't have lasted over 200 years if it weren't for one crucial detail: she and her husband were adamant that no one knew their names. Even her doctor and nurses were sworn to secrecy. After she died, her husband used ...
Ep 98 - The Podcast That (Allegedly) Solved a Murder
February 14, 2023 09:00 - 58 minutes - 40.5 MBIt's the dream of every true crime fan - being the one who finally puts the pieces together to solve a years old unsolved disappearance or mystery. And in this episode, we cover the case that was potentially helped by a Podcast to get closed for good. Tara Grinstead was a beauty queen and a high school teacher. She was well loved in her small down of Hawkinsville, GA. However, one day in 2005 she went home after a busy night out never to be seen again. Her car was still in the driveway of ...
Ep 97 – The Little Not-Green Men
February 07, 2023 09:00 - 1 hour - 47.8 MBHave you heard the phrase "little green men"? It had only been used in sci-fi until 1955, when 11 people in Kelly, Kentucky claimed that a spaceship landed near their farmhouse and a group of aliens tried to attack their home. Suddenly news stories were awash with the Suttons' tale of their extraterrestrial plight — with some taking it more seriously than others. Today, there's no consensus about what happened to the Suttons that night in 1955. Some people fully believe they fought with ali...
Ep 96 - What was that place called again? Oh, right. The Alamo.
January 31, 2023 09:00 - 1 hour - 46.9 MBIn today's chaotic episode, Zoey discusses the ghosts of the Alamo. Robin, knowing full well that Zoey planned to cover the Alamo, is shocked that there are ghosts. Apparently, Robin was giddy with the thought that Zoey was going to make this a historical podcast. Well, Robin. Too bad. Can't have history without ghosts, as Zoey always says. Though you do have to bear through some history taught by Prof Zoey. But don't worry, the ghosts are many and very close together. They include the peop...
Ep 95 – It's Like Stonehenge, But Not
January 24, 2023 09:00 - 1 hour - 48 MBAh, the Georgia Guidestones. How statuesque. How deeply problematic. The Georgia Guidestones were a truly odd conglomeration of granite that popped up in rural Georgia in the 1980s. According to the only two people who ever saw him, a well-dressed man came into Elberton, Georgia, in 1979 on a mission to spread 10 very specific opinions on how he thought people ought to live and interact with the environment. Apparently he decided this was less "letter to the editor" territory and more "carv...
Ep 94 - The Horrors of Donald "Pee Wee" Gaskins
January 17, 2023 09:00 - 1 hour - 48.4 MBThis week's episode is a tough one. We follow along as Zoey tells the story of Donald "Pee Wee" Gaskins, an infamous serial killer from South Carolina. Donald had a tough life, but he made it worse for everyone around him. He started his crimes when he was still a tween, and only ramped up as he made his way through life. Donald Gaskins claimed that he killed more than 100 people, but the police believe the number is more around 40. Either way it is a staggering amount. And murder wasn't h...
Ep 93 – Gargoyles and Perfectly Timed Ghosts
January 10, 2023 09:00 - 55 minutes - 38 MBRight beside the Alamo in San Antonio, Texas, the Emily Morgan Hotel looms 13 stories tall. Originally constructed in 1924, it got its start as a premier Medical Arts Building. And even almost 50 years since the building saw its last patient, there are still traces of that hospital today. From the inexplicable antiseptic smell on the former surgical floor to the memory of a nurse walking down the hall, the Emily Morgan Hotel seems to like holding onto the past. And we haven't even mentioned...
Ep 92 - Two Haunted Cemeteries in Savannah, GA
January 03, 2023 09:00 - 1 hour - 42 MBCemeteries. Ghosts. They seem to go hand in hand. Yet Haunted Hospitality has recorded almost 100 episodes, and not once have we talked about a Cemetery. So this week, Zoey brings in the new year by visiting the Colonial Park Cemetery and the Bonaventure Cemetery, both in Savannah, GA. The Colonial Park Cemetery is known for shadowy figures that dart between gravestones at night after the park is all closed and for housing a mass grave of Yellow Fever victims. And there may or may not be a...
Ep 91 – The Disappearance and Death of Nell Cropsey

The young couple had spent the evening with Nell's family sitting around the fire in the dining room, with her excited for her upcoming trip to New York and him checking his watch repeatedly the whole evening long. He had asked her to come outside and talk for a ...
Ep 90 - Death Follows Velma Barfield
December 20, 2022 09:00 - 1 hour - 43 MBYou've read the book "All My Friends are Dead" by Avery Monsen and Jory John, focusing on a little dinosaur that has lost all his loved ones. Well, for Velma Barfield, that book is reality. Velma Barfield grew up in rural North Carolina. When she was 17, she got married and had a happy life with her husband and two kids. But when both herself and her husband ended up with chronic pain that they self medicated through either drugs or alcohol, Velma's life was shrouded in Death. By the time ...
Ep 89 – Spiritualism, Séances, and The Thing
December 13, 2022 09:00 - 53 minutes - 36.8 MBSometime in the late 1800s, a whole bunch of people decided it would be cool to contact the dead on a semi-regular basis. This wasn’t just a fringe phenomenon. Folks like Marie Curie and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle were all about it. But no one was as all about it as Ben and Sue Allen. Twice or thrice a week, they’d host a séance in their Nashville, Tennessee home, inviting their circle of well-to-do friends to bear witness to Sue’s uncanny ability to contact the spirit world. These evenings in...
Ep 88 - Dying to Stay at the Driskill Hotel
December 06, 2022 09:00 - 56 minutes - 38.9 MBThis week's episode we really embody our podcast name by visiting a Haunted Hotel! None other than the Driskill Hotel of Austin Texas. This hotel is haunted by the owner, a couple of brides, a little girl slash devil, a President, and a long time resident, and Zoey tells you all about each one. As the longest operating hotel in TX, no wonder there are a few ghosties out to play. But first, as the weather gets slightly cold, Robin and Zoey share their Chilly Takes. TW: Suicide Sources: h...

November 29, 2022 09:00 - 58 minutes - 40.5 MBIn 1921, a ship called the Carroll A. Deering wrecked against the Diamond Shoals, a particularly dangerous area to sail in North Carolina's Outer Banks. Also called the Graveyard of the Atlantic, the long string of barrier islands has seen countless shipwrecks and wild waters, but the mystery of the Carroll A. Deering was the first of its kind. When a search party made its way to the ship, they found food left out in the kitchen, the steering equipment broken, and the crew missing. For over...
Ep 86 - Lost in the Smokies: Unexplained Disappearances in the Smoky Mountains
November 22, 2022 09:00 - 1 hour - 47.8 MBDon't you love it when you and your best friend have the same idea? This week's episode continues the collage of wild frights but with a more true crime twist. Zoey tells us about four different unsolved missing persons cases in the Smoky Mountains ranging from a 6 year old boy who disappeared without a trace to an 58 year old woman who may have ran off with a lover. But before we get hiking, Robin gives Zoey the most fair Southern Quiz to date and you'll be surprised about how many State ...

Pat Hendrickson, along with friends Norma, Howard, and Mark, concoct a poorly made plan to murder Orin for his money. Pat asked...
Ep 83 – USS Yorktown: Full Body Apparitions and One Heck of a Ghost Photo
November 01, 2022 08:00 - 1 hour - 47 MBThe USS Yorktown, also called the Fighting Lady, is a well-storied ship that served in World War II, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War before docking near Charleston, South Carolina, as part of the Patriots Point Maritime Museum. This ship is chock-full of history — and, of course, ghosts.

In this episode, ...
Ep 82 - Zoey Faces her Biggest Fear: Bunnies
October 25, 2022 08:00 - 50 minutes - 34.6 MBHappy Halloween! In this very spooky episode Zoey shares one of her biggest, and newest, fears: men dressed up in full Bunny fursuits. In this episode we cover the legend of the Bunny Man in Fairfax, Virginia. The legend is based on two real, and scary, stories of men in Burke Virginia in 1969 and/or 1970 who threatened locals while dressed like Bunnies. From there, the legend spread to outrageous and easily deniable stories, but it is very spooky. But before we get into that, Robin tells Z...

October 18, 2022 08:00 - 58 minutes - 40 MBLate at night in February 1946, Jimmy Hollis and Mary Jeanne Larey parked in a lovers' lane on the outskirts of Texarkana, a mid-size town that sat on the border between Texas and Arkansas. At 11:55 PM, a man in a white cloth mask approached the driver's side door and demanded they get out of the car, before attacking them. Both Jimmy and Mary Jeanne survived the encounter, but almost all other victims of the Phantom Killer — as he would come to be known — would not. In this episode, we dis...
Ep 80 - The Legend of the Chupacabra
October 11, 2022 08:00 - 52 minutes - 36 MBChupacabra literally means "goat sucker", and boy howdy is this cryptid aptly named. The Chupacabra is a vampiric beast with glowing red eyes, fangs, a long tongue with a sucker, wings, talons, and spikes. Or it might be a hairless dog. Who knows! In this week's episode, Zoey goes into the legend and the sightings of the infamous Chupacabra in her most popular cryptid to date. A beast that started in Puerto Rico in 1995, he's traveled the world killing livestock on his way. Zoey even shares...
Ep 79 – B!tch, I've Got Your Baby (The Legends of Bear Creek Swamp)
October 04, 2022 12:00 - 59 minutes - 41.1 MBOn any given weekend, young locals will gather on the dirt road that stretches straight through Bear Creek Swamp in Autauga County, Alabama. They don't just go there to party — they also perform a Bloody Mary-esque ritual. Legend says if you say the words, "Bitch, I've got your baby," three times, the woman who haunts the swamp will attack you. And unlike your typical Bloody Mary story where children at a sleepover try and fail to scare themselves, creepy things really do happen after they s...
Ep 78 - The Alday Family Tragedy
September 27, 2022 08:00 - 1 hour - 42.1 MBFor the Alday Family, the day was just like any other. The men worked on the farm, the women worked in the houses. They were a happy, church-going, good family that never got into trouble. But trouble found them, in the shape of Carl Issacs, Wayne Coleman, George Dungee, and Billy Issacs. These four men were recent prison escapees who targeted the Alday family for their gas. In this episode, Zoey walks you through the systematic murders of five family members and the court cases that came a...

With him was the body of seven-year-old René Duperrault, the youngest member of a family that had been traveling for the past week with Harvey and his wife on a ship called the Bluebelle. Once he was rescued and taken to the coast guard, Harvey told them how a storm swept in at midnight, breaking the masts and triggering a cascade of events ...
Ep 76 - The Party to End all Others
September 13, 2022 08:00 - 53 minutes - 37 MBTrue crime is back! In case you're new here, this is a True Crime and Supernatural show. It's been a while, but this week Zoey brings back the true crime element with the story of Tyler Hadley, a Florida teen with troubles.

Ep 75 – The South Has Castles and Those Castles Have Ghosts
September 06, 2022 08:00 - 50 minutes - 34.6 MBThe American South isn't known for its castles, but maybe it should be. In this episode, we explore three different southern castles and their spooky reputations. The Gassaway Mansion in Greenville, South Carolina is an interesting feat of architecture. This structure with its castle-like tower was built alongside the prosperity of the roaring twenties, just as its occupants felt the loss of the 1929 stock market crash. Rumors of hauntings have swirled around the mansion for decades, with m...

Ep 67 - A Patreon Sneak Peak: The Lizzie Borden Show
July 12, 2022 08:00 - 57 minutes - 39.5 MBHello, everyone! Zoey here. If you listen to the first five minutes of the episode, you already know this, but in case you haven't and are looking at the title saying "that isn't southern?" allow me to explain. For Robin's mental well being, we're not going to share all the details but it boils down to this. Robin got hurt in an accident, and while she's recovering, Zoey is taking the show *insert maniacal laughing here*. Things are going to be a little different for the next couple of epis...
Ep 66 - The Pyromantic Poltergeist of Bladenboro, NC

In the year of 1932, the Williams family became the talk of the town when, over a four day span, over 20 mysterious, source-less fires erupted throughout their home. Zoey goes over the details, or at least those still known almost 100 years later. Then together, Robin and Zoey discuss the internet's best theories on what these ...
Ep 65 - The Queen of Vodou
June 28, 2022 08:00 - 1 hour - 48.7 MBMarie Laveau — AKA the Vodou Queen of New Orleans — is as much a mystery to us in death as she was in life. Newspaper accounts of the time ricocheted between love and hate, respect and fear. But who was this woman, a descendant of enslaved people, with her thumb on the pulse of Louisiana power? If anything, Vodou was and is even more controversial than Marie — a misunderstood religion castigated in the press to stoke racist fear. In this episode, we dive into the history and culture of Vodo...
Ep 64 - Holy Ghosts and San Antonio's La Llorona
June 21, 2022 08:00 - 54 minutes - 37.8 MBZoey brings us to San Antonio, Texas to visit the historic San Fernando Cathedral. As the longest standing continuously functioning religious communities in the state of Texas, it has a lot of history. And with that history comes ghosts. It also helps that there are supposedly people buried in the walls, it holds ashes of Alamo soldiers, and a horse that was buried alive in the town square. With skulls coming out the walls and ghost monks worshiping from beyond the grave, there's quite a bi...

Instead, the mother had been strangled, the two daughters had been shot at close range, and it looked like the father had taken his own life. Police interviewed their family friend, Earl Bramblett, to see if he believed that ...
Ep 61 - Haunted Boozy Places Pt. 3: The Old Talbott Tavern
May 31, 2022 08:00 - 1 hour - 45.8 MBIn the Old Talbott Tavern's 243 years of existence, it's collected its fair share of famous visitors, legends, and things that go bump in the night. The first ghost stories you'll come across during a quick Google search are spooky for sure, but almost expected in a place like this: the outlaw Jesse James still roaming the halls, the former owner's wife hovering over guests in their bed as a Lady in White. But if you dig a little deeper, the stories get weirder, wilder, and above all: scarie...
