Common Mystics – Détails, épisodes et analyse

On this episode of Common Mystics, Jen and Jill investigate a ghost story from the town of Stoughton, WI… but what they uncover is far more unsettling than the legend itself. In November of 1925, Saxe Hoverson, a respected local official, died after falling from the third floor of the Grand Hotel. At the time, the incident was quickly labeled a suicide. Case closed. Or so it seemed. But when you place that official explanation alongside the reality of the era—Prohibition, bootlegging, and the quiet reach of organized crime into small Midwestern towns—the story begins to feel less simple. Was Saxe Hoverson’s death a personal tragedy—or did it intersect with forces far larger than one man? And if the truth was never fully spoken, could that explain why the story still carries energy nearly a century later?

On this episode of Common Mystics, Jen and Jill stumble into a surprising connection to the infamous Salem Witch Trials of 1692. What begins as an investigation in Imlay City, Michigan quickly turns into something much bigger when the sisters uncover a local story tied to an ancestor from Salem, Massachusetts. From there, one curious rabbit hole leads to another, across the Atlantic and deep into history, as they unpack how and why witch trials ever became a thing in the first place. The journey ultimately lands on the original trial transcript of Susannah Martin. But it’s one accuser in particular, Jarvis Ring, who really grabs their attention. What unfolds next is unexpected, fascinating, and nothing short of astounding.

On this episode of Common Mystics, Jen and Jill reveal a remarkable story about the "enemy aliens" imprisoned at Fort Oglethorpe, GA, during World War I.* After the U.S. entered the war, German civilians were detained without evidence, deemed too dangerous to remain free. Some were targeted because of their knowledge, intelligence, or influence. Despite the circumstances, the detainees formed a thriving community with a rich culture. Tragically, many faced grim outcomes.
