Scared-of-my-Shadow at Pennhurst with Alisa Sickora Kleckner!!!

In this episode, I beam down in the countryside outside of Boston to chat with the brilliantly talented Alisa Sickora Kleckner, costume maker extraordinaire and the creative force behind Scared-Of-My-Shadow, her leatherwork brand specializing in hauntingly beautiful creations for haunted attractions and horror entertainment. With three of her chilling pieces featured in my art exhibition, The Paranormal Realm: Beyond the Lore, Alisa shares how her passion for the uncanny fuels her artistry.We dive into the nature of fear and how confronting it through creative work can lead to powerful self-empowerment. Alisa opens up about her personal paranormal experiences, from growing up in a haunted 1700s home in rural Pennsylvania to the eerie encounters she’s had at Pennhurst Asylum during ParaCons. Plus, we explore the joy and connection that comes from sharing supernatural stories with loved ones.And you know we had to talk paranormal reality TV! Alisa and I bond over our love for Adam Berry and Chip Coffey, discussing not just the entertainment but also the importance of ethical ghost hunting. We unpack how respecting spirits and the spaces they inhabit makes all the difference in paranormal investigations.Alisa is so our people—creative, thoughtful, and absolutely amazing—and this coffee break was an unforgettable experience.
