S2, Ep. 1: Haunted Saginaw and Lights On

October 01, 2022 10:00 - 19 minutes - 27.1 MB

Season 2 is all about movies, documentaries, and tv series dedicated to Paranormal Activity.  To kick off this season I present a look at Steve Shippy's Haunted Saginaw film series.  But before we get into that, I have another chilling paranormal encounter of mine to share with you.

Season 2 - Ep. 7: Mary and the Poltergeist

October 01, 2022 10:00 - 1 hour - 94.3 MB

On my season 2 finale, I have a very special guest for you.  Season 2 has been all about paranormal activity and investigation.  A very important component to most of these films and documentaries is the presence of a psychic medium somewhere in the mix.  Well, I'm very fortunate to have a dear friend who has been blessed with psychic and spiritual gifts, Mary Cassaday.  After my interview with Mary, I'll be talking about the one film that set the standard for haunted house films in the 1980...

Season 2- Ep. 6: Paranormal TV and Lukes Tale of Terror

October 01, 2022 10:00 - 1 hour - 100 MB

Shows like Ghost Adventures, The Dead Files, Paranormal Caught on Camera, and Destination Fear would take paranormal investigation to new heights, and bring such amazing pieces of evidence forward to shake the foundation of non-believers.  Before we get into that, I get to follow up with a great friend of the family, Luke Sochacki, to share his stories of growing up in a haunted house.

October 01, 2022 10:00 - 14 minutes - 20.3 MB

The Blair Witch project reinvigorated the world of found footage films and set the stage for future films like Paranormal Activity, Cloverfield, and others.  The Blair Witch was portrayed as a local legend; just like the Michigan Dog Man, and the Torch Lake Monster.  I'll give you a little info about two Michigan local legends that will have you looking over your shoulder when you're out in the woods or swimming in the lake.

Season 2, Ep. 4: Insidious and Ouija Boards part 2

October 01, 2022 10:00 - 13 minutes - 18.6 MB

Season 2, Ep. 3: Paranormal Activity and Ouija Boards

October 01, 2022 10:00 - 25 minutes - 34.5 MB

No film series has made me jump more than Paranormal Activity.  I spent more time trying not to leap out of my seat than actually paying attention to the plot of the movies.  I try to connect the dots between all these films for those like me who were so terrified that the story meant nothing at the time.  Before that, I'll tell you about a high intensity encounter my friends and I had playing with a Ouija Board.
