Explore every episode of the podcast The Deittman Files: a Paranormal Mystery

Upon researching the supposed ‘Rifts’ that seemingly follow Ash and his team, Dr. Deittman digs up a tattered, aged journal dating back to the days of the American Civil War. What do the ominous words of one Corporal Joseph Lutski have to do with the troubles that plague Ash? And could there be any truth to the dark ritual depicted within the yellowed pages of the journal?

Markus insists that Ash take a break from the paranormal and go do something relaxing while he sets off on his next case. With Eli as a stand in psychic, the two investigate a strange haunting in a suburban house. And Ash? Well, relaxing isn't exactly in her nature--so she loads Josephine into the car for a surprise retreat: Bigfoot Camp.

After Ash receives a call from a concerned Garrett, she and Markus set off to visit a location that's been the talk of the paranormal community: Broadhead Penitentiary. Was the recent livestream by amateur investigators staged? Authorities and the general public sure think so. In attempt to find out what really happened, however, Ash and Markus team up with some familiar--but not exactly friendly--faces. 

Josephine Salinas has a few skeletons in her closet, and it turns out she isn't who she claims to be.  How did she become the famous debunker she is today? Her upbringing with the well-known traveling Medium, Madame Costa, might have something to do with it...

When Dr. Deittman receives a call to investigate the family owned Barrett House in quaint little Lily Dale, he jumps at the chance to send his investigators to town that has been called the 'World’s Largest Center for the Religion of Spiritualism.' As the case progresses, however, it becomes clear that Dr. Deittman's over eagerness outweighed his research efforts, leading to a rather aggravating outcome... 

Markus and Ash set off to solve a strange mystery at an old retirement home--a location that a client hopes to turn into  housing , but only if the site proves safe enough to call contractors back in to finish the renovation work. The case takes a turn when a familiar face pops up, making the pair wonder who is really behind their paycheck...

Dr. Deittman's team is sent a recent news story about a team of paranormal investigators who supposedly disappeared while recording in the Broadhead Penitentiary, a reportedly haunted location only recently opened for investigations. Is the footage real? Or is it all a scripted and staged hoax, one planned by amateur investigators to gain internet clout?

Ready to dive back into the field (or at least, needing to collect a paycheck,) Ash sets off with Markus as they make a house call. A rather well-known doll collector has had a sudden 'uptick' in paranormal activity which has become too much for her to bear... 

After the explosive incident at Mortimer Montgomery's 'Maelstrom Mansion,' Dr. Deittman is forced to accept the fact that he no longer has much of a Stateside team.  While he works to resume business as usual, Ash lays comatose in the hospital, her soul struggling to returning to her body…

Join us for the premiere of "the Deittman Files" second season! Old characters meet new as the team sets off on fresh investigations, working to repair the damage done by their unwitting involvement in Mortimer Montgomery's scheme!

On the season finale of "the Deittman Files," Ash and Josephine venue back into the home of Mortimer Montgomery, a.k.a. "the Maelstrom Mansion," things take a deadly turn. Was venturing into a mad millionaire's mansion a misstep? Or will the two unlikely heroes save whatever is left of JB?

Before Dr. Deittman even started to begin to review his team's casework, he received a strange recording from Master Mortimer Montgomery. He filed it away, never feeling as if he had much in common with the eccentric occultist. With the recent revelations regarding the links between Mortimer Montgomery and Deittman's old friend Martin McGuire, however, Deittman has decided it's time to give the recording his undivided attention...

After losing track of JB, Ash and Josephine are forced to sideline any hopes of getting back to regular investigations. Following the advice of a very coffee-infused Garrett, the pair set off to infiltrate a manufacturing facility in hopes of learning the origins of the mysterious 'device' that caused JB to take such a violent turn...

Ash and JB meet up with fellow paranormal investigator Garrett before heading out to an old, abandoned coal-mining town. While they make a rather "bone-chilling" discovery in a decrepit church, the real horror comes from within the team...

When a mysterious box of tapes in a box dating back to the 1970's appear on Dr. Deittman's office doorstep, he cannot help but to listen...and to remember the supposed death of a supposed friend.

After taking a month long leave-of-absence, Ash returns to the office to find JB ready to set out on a solo investigation. Concerned about his well-being, she decides to dive back into casework and join him at a dilapidated orphanage. After confirming a connection to previous cases, Ash makes a call to cash in a favor...

Ash and JB set off to the grand estate known as Sea Spire Terrace to investigate the recent death of renowned author Christopher Calloway. What they hoped would be a working vacation quickly turns a stormy haunting with a race against the clock to save their client...

After considering the series of oddities littering his team's cases, Dr. Deittman is reminded of one of his own cases--one from many years ago. Though he has always prided himself on pioneering his field through science (and pushing the boundaries of said field with his experimental methods,) Dr. Deittman has never considered the realm of magic and rituals to be particularly believable. Perhaps, however, that is an naïve approach, considering all that he has seen for himself...

When a former Deittman consultant reaches out to Ash for an investigation as a personal favor, she finds herself reluctant to take his call. When he shows up at the team's office, however, she has little choice but to accept. JB and Ash join Eli, who is not only their client but a Post-Cognitive psychic, in an attempt to rid a local private school of a long-time haunting in hopes of putting a little girl's mind at ease. And, at the same time, Ash begins to notice a few threads that may connect to some of their other recent cases...

JB and Ash take a detour to attend a rural history seminar featuring the tale of a local urban legend, "the Bunny of the Bridge." To their surprise, they find that notorious skeptic Josephine is in attendance as well. Together, the group sets off to investigate the legend of themselves because surely there is safety in numbers... right?

While searching for information regarding his team's recent cases, Dr. Deittman stumbles upon an old journal hidden within JB's desk. To his surprise, the pages appear to hold the final days of a one-time famous boxer who fell off the grid to avoid murder charges. Does the journal tell the tale of small town supernatural occurrences? Or is it one man's descent into madness?

When Dr. Deittman's office receives a call from a small-town investigator, JB and Ash set off to check out a decrepit, old laboratory. Between a paranormal encounter and a structurally weak building, the team is reminded about how dangerous investigating can really be...

While out of town, Dr. Deittman's team receives an invitation from the elusive Mr. Montgomery to attend a sort of 'psychic soiree.' Dr. Deittman's new team lead, a researcher named JB, and his resident psychic, a pyrokinetic named Ash, ultimately RSVP on behalf of their employer. What should have been an evening of sipping cocktails and rubbing elbows with some of the most famous paranormal investigators unfortunately goes awry...
