The Hands Resist Him20 Aug 202400:23:35

Laurah is recovering from Covid. Thanks for your patience! 

Back in 2000, one of the first viral “haunted” Ebay auctions listed an allegedly cursed painting titled The Hands Resist Him; it was alleged to spark all kinds of supernatural activity, which surprised exactly no one who’d gazed upon the spooky work. But was it actually plagued by any sort of ill-luck or tied to true ghostly activity?

The Nightcrawlers16 Apr 202400:18:04

Back in 2007, the world was thrilled to discover there was a new cryptid—or alien—or something—on the scene: The Fresno Nightcrawler. And even better, it was absolutely adorable (as long as you have a fondness for walking pants). But what evidence exists for this mysterious new creature?

The Lights20 Jul 202100:22:22

Nearly every region of the United States has its own lore surrounding supernatural “lights” that have no clear source—the Ozarks are no exception. Unlike most other phenomena, though, the Spook Lights of the Ozarks resist the usual explanations.

Introducing In God We Lust20 Apr 202100:06:44

A woman named Becki is lounging by the pool at the Fontainebleau Hotel when she decides to proposition a strapping pool attendant. Go on a date with her...and her husband. What begins as an unconventional proposition will soon throw them all into the international spotlight. And that’s because the couple is none other than Jerry Falwell Jr. and his wife Becki, two of the most powerful figures in Evangelical America.

Wondery presents In God We Lust, hosted by Brooke Siffrin and Aricia Skidmore-Williams of Even the Rich. A story of an alluring sex scandal, power, money and a very public fall from grace. When word of their affair fell into the wrong hands it led to political extortion and a public outing that brought Jerry Falwell Jr.’s empire crashing down.

Premium Preview: The Bureau26 Mar 202400:25:59

In the 1960s, one hopeful British psychiatrist hoped he could prevent disaster—not with science, but with the supernatural. For a number of years. Dr. John Barker’s “Premonition Bureaus” collected psychic visions with a single goal: stopping tragedy before it could strike.

Trailer: Introducing One Strange Thing04 Aug 202000:01:33

One Strange Thing digs deep into the forgotten experiences of everyday Americans... with a single unexplainable element: a house that bleeds, or a lost ring that turns up on another continent, or a mysterious hum.

This isn’t true crime, or tall tale, or dry history. It’s whimsy — with a hint of edge. Real stories of entirely normal people, save for one strange thing.

Subscribe now to get Episode 1 right when it releases on September 8th, 2020.

The Wolf Girl19 Mar 202400:25:48

Some say that a werewolf once lived in Georgia -- a young woman, Emily Isabella Burt, who was born roughly 20 years before the Civil War. Sound like an unusual set up for a lycanthropic tale? We thought so, too.

The Symphony06 Feb 202400:17:19

Classical music composers throughout time have envied Beethoven’s output — and the fact that his ninth symphony, with “Ode To Joy,” was such a juggernaut. But there’s an old superstition about composing ninth and tenth symphonies in Beethoven’s wake… and there’ve been enough deaths involved that the prospect of a curse is worth considering.

In the late 19th century, in the Northwoods of Wisconsin, the hodag—a monster that sprung up in the tall tales of local logging camps— made its national  debut when one was supposedly captured alive and put on display at a county fair. We are very sorry we missed it.

The Night Before26 Dec 202300:28:08

For two hundred years, a very famous poem has heralded the holiday season, and for some, the arrival of Santa Claus—but perhaps less known is the mystery it brings along with it. Whether you know it as “‘Twas the Night Before Christmas” or “A Visit from St. Nicholas,” there’s more to this one than mice and stockings and ho ho ho.

Our friend Lanie hosts a show that we think you'll love, Strangers. We'll let her take it from here — but if you like what you hear, find It's Haunted... What Now? wherever you listen. Or, connect with the show on Twitter @podcast_haunted, Instagram: @Itshauntedwhatnow, or at hauntedpod.com.


The Loch Ness Monster, affectionately known as Nessie, is one of the world’s most elusive and intriguing creatures. The first written account of the monster dates back to 564 A.D., and sightings have continued to be reported throughout the centuries, with the most famous being the 1934 “surgeon’s photograph.” Despite numerous investigations, the mystery surrounding the Loch Ness Monster persists, with conflicting theories about its identity and existence. In this episode, we delve into the history and lore of the Loch Ness Monster, exploring the various accounts and scientific theories surrounding this elusive creature.

Re-Release: The Genius12 Dec 202300:26:29

Laurah’s out sick; please enjoy a re-release of one of our favorite episodes. 

A Washington man named Jason Padgett loved partying, muscle cars, and getting buff at the local gym, and would have been content to live his life singing karaoke and chasing girls--until a fateful attack changed his worldview. . . quite literally. When he woke up the next day after receiving serious blows to the head, Jason realized that he could see things that others couldn’t. And he didn’t know what to make of them.

The Angel14 Nov 202300:23:17

A cemetery in Iowa City is famous — not really for anyone laid to rest there, but for a statue. The Black Angel is mysterious and otherworldly — and her metamorphosis, both physical and in legend, leaves us with a lot of questions.

The Devil31 Oct 202300:30:04

The Pine Barrens of Southern New Jersey gave birth to one of America’s most famous cryptids—a beast known as the Leeds Devil. Of course, you might be more familiar with the moniker “The Jersey Devil”—whether or not you know much of the history of how the creature has come to haunt the northeastern imagination.

Listen Now: New Podcast “Ghost Story”23 Oct 202300:09:18

Tristan Redman is a journalist who doesn’t believe in ghosts. But weird things happened in his teenage bedroom – weirder than normal. When, years later, he discovers subsequent occupants of his family home say they have been visited by the ghost of a faceless woman, he’s curious. It just so happens that the house Tristan grew up in is right next door to the house where his wife’s great grandmother, Naomi Dancy, was murdered – killed by two gunshots to the face. Could there be a connection? Tristan decides to investigate and soon finds himself where no son-in-law should ever be: delving deep into his wife’s family history asking questions no-one wants answered.

The Witch17 Oct 202300:25:39

The Bell family was prominent and well-liked by their neighbors in Robertson County, Tennessee. So when an apparent spirit manifested in the Bell home, people believed them. And when that so-called witch pivoted from conjuring snacks to causing young lovers to break up, and a patriarch to pass away suddenly… people had questions.
