    Ep. 135 The Conjuring House

    Built in the 1730s, the Old Arnold Estate - aka the Conjuring House - has terrified and fascinated for generations. Made infamous by Ed and Lorraine Warren and the Perron family’s chilling accounts from the 1970s, the house exploded into worldwide legend after its creative‑liberty retelling in the 2013 film The Conjuring. But what really happened inside those walls? What was embellished for Hollywood? And will we ever know the full truth?In this episode, we dig into the history, the hauntings, and the unanswered questions surrounding the Harrisville farmhouse that refuses to fade into the past. And if hearing about it isn’t enough, you can now tour the property - or better yet, go GHAMPING, ghost‑camping in a tent under the same eerie night sky that’s watched over the estate for nearly 300 years.

    Ep. 127 It’s Giving Reincarnation

    Is it reincarnation? Something supernatural? A miracle? Or pure coincidence? Two compelling cases for reincarnation are the Pollock Twins and Corliss Chotkin JrThe Pollock twins are often cited as one of the most compelling modern examples of alleged reincarnation, because from the moment they could speak, they displayed memories, fears, and behaviors that eerily matched their deceased sisters. They recognized toys they’d never seen, described places they’d never been, and carried birthmarks mirroring the older girls’ injuries — as if their lives had simply continued in new bodiesCorliss Chotkin Jr., a Tlingit boy from Alaska, began describing memories and details that matched the life of his deceased uncle with an accuracy seemingly far beyond coincidence. From early childhood, he recognized people he could not have known and called them by their nicknames used by the uncle. He spoke with the same stutter and had birthmarks matching scars from that same uncleTo believers, these cases feel less like coincidences and more like souls finding their way back home.

During the Depression, people spent their hard‑earned cash just to see her.But the real twist came later: Celesta stunned the world by rewriting her own story and undergoing a dramatic transformation.

     “If sanity and insanity exist, how shall we know them?”That haunting question opens Dr. David Rosenhan’s landmark 1973 study “On Being Sane in Insane Places”—a psychological experiment that shooketh the foundations and shattered the world’s faith in psychiatryRosenhan and seven other pseudopatients faked a single symptom to gain admission to psychiatric institutions, only to find out getting in was easy… but getting out was a different story. They were all diagnosed with serious mental illnesses and kept institutionalized for weeksWhat happens when you pretend to be insane? What happens when the system can’t tell the difference? And who gets to decide what “sane” even means? This experiment pulled back the curtain and exposed the flaws in psychiatric diagnosis, the power of labels, and the chilling reality of being trapped in a system that couldn’t tell sanity from insanity. Was it brilliant? Controversial? Ethically murky? All of the above.

    How does one remain human in inhuman times? A question three girls face during their time in the resistance against Nazi Germany. The riveting and true story of three Dutch teenage girls - Hannie Schaft, Truus Oversteegen, & Freddie Oversteegen Based on the book Seducing and Killing Nazis—Hannie, Truus, and Freddie: Dutch Resistance Heroines of WWII - a non-fiction book that details the journey of three teenaged girls who faced the question: “Do we adapt or resist?” Freddie, Truus, and Hannie, while living in the Dutch city of Haarlem, made the decision to take up arms against Nazi Germany "because it had to be done." Their missions included seducing high-ranking Nazi officers gathering vital information for the resistance, luring them into the woods, and liquidating (killing) them. More than that, they also provided Jewish children with safe houses, transported illegal newspapers and weapons and stole identity cards for Jewish people and others in the resistanceLinks:https://www.amazon.com/Seducing-Killing-Nazis-Resistance-Heroines/dp/908300340XSend us Fan Mail
