Episode #15: Paranormal Tools, Part 1/The Southend Werewolf

This week, Jen pulls out the paranormal toolbox and gives us the lowdown on pendulums, dowsing rods, and Ouija boards—what they are, how they (supposedly) work, and all the weird ways they’ve caused ghost hunters to argue with furniture. Spoiler: don’t ask a Ouija board if it’s friendly.   Meanwhile, Em takes us on a wild ride to Southend, England, where a man was allegedly possessed by a demonic werewolf spirit. Priests were called, things got bitey, and nobody came out of it with their dignity fully intact.   It’s a mix of ghost gear and werewolf weirdness—and as always, we’re only here to stir the pot (not summon anything, we swear).   🔮 Stay Connected: Follow us @inmyhauntedera on Instagram and TikTok for behind-the-scenes pics, creepy memes, and upcoming episode teases.    📩 Got a spooky story?
