In this haunting episode of the **222 Paranormal Podcast**, we step back into the shadowed corridors of America's antebellum South—where grand architecture, wealth, and history intertwine with tragedy, trauma, and lingering spiritual echoes.

Antebellum homes are often admired for their sweeping columns, elegant staircases, and timeless Southern charm. But beneath the polished wood and historic beauty lies a far more complicated past. Many of these estates were built on the backs of enslaved labor, and with that reality comes a legacy that some believe never truly left.

In this episode, we explore several Southern homes with reputations for intense paranormal activity—locations where both former owners and enslaved individuals are said to still be present. Witness accounts describe unexplained footsteps pacing long-empty halls, disembodied voices drifting through locked rooms, and sudden cold spots that appear without warning. Some investigators have even reported shadow figures standing at the ends of hallways, watching silently before vanishing into darkness.

One of the most chilling stories discussed centers on a historic home that suffered a devastating fire. According to local legend, during the blaze—and in later years during reported paranormal experiences—witnesses claimed to see human-like figures moving within the flames themselves. Apparitions appearing inside fire is an especially unsettling phenomenon, suggesting that whatever energy remains tied to the location may be replaying moments of trauma or catastrophe. These sightings raise questions about residual hauntings, emotional imprints, and whether extreme events can leave permanent echoes in the environment.

We also take time to examine the duality often found in these historic locations. While some reports focus on former owners—figures in period clothing, stern presences, or footsteps on upper floors—other accounts describe sightings believed to be tied to enslaved individuals who once lived and worked on the property. These encounters tend to be quieter but no less powerful: faint singing where no one is present, figures seen near former quarters, or sensations of being watched accompanied by overwhelming emotion.

As always, the conversation moves beyond simple ghost stories and into deeper questions. Are these manifestations intelligent spirits, residual energy, or psychological responses to historically charged locations? Can trauma—especially repeated over generations—leave an imprint strong enough to replay itself decades or centuries later?

Adding to the episode's atmosphere, a listener-submitted story brings a personal and unsettling firsthand experience into the discussion. Real accounts like this continue to blur the line between folklore and lived experience, reminding us that the paranormal is often most powerful when it intersects with everyday life.

This episode of the **222 Paranormal Podcast** doesn't just explore haunted houses—it examines how history, memory, and human experience may shape what we encounter in allegedly haunted spaces. Whether you believe these encounters are spiritual, environmental, or psychological, the stories connected to antebellum homes remain some of the most emotionally charged and deeply compelling in paranormal research.

Join us as we walk through candlelit hallways, listen for echoes from another era, and ask the question that always lingers in historic places: does the past ever truly leave—or does it simply wait to be heard?

For centuries, stories of lost treasure have whispered through history like unfinished confessions—fortunes buried in secret, riches swallowed by the sea, and artifacts that vanished under suspicious circumstances. In this episode of the **222 Paranormal Podcast**, we dive deep into the world's most infamous *lost treasures* and the eerie legends that surround them.

From pirate gold hidden on remote islands to royal jewels that disappeared during revolutions, these treasures aren't just missing—they're *guarded by mystery*. Many are said to be protected by curses, strange phenomena, or unseen forces that prevent them from ever being recovered. Explorers report disembodied voices, sudden storms, equipment failures, and even shadowy figures appearing near dig sites. Coincidence… or something far older watching over what was never meant to be found?

We explore legendary enigmas like the **Lost Dutchman's Gold Mine**, where countless treasure hunters have vanished in the Arizona desert. We examine the chilling theories behind **Oak Island's Money Pit**, a location so strange it has claimed lives while offering only cryptic clues. We also journey into sunken realms—lost shipwrecks rumored to hold unimaginable wealth, including vessels that disappeared without a trace, leaving behind only ghost stories and unanswered questions.

But this episode isn't just about gold and jewels—it's about *why* these treasures remain lost. Are they simply victims of time and geography, or are some discoveries actively being prevented? We discuss theories ranging from ancient traps and secret societies to paranormal guardians and time-slip phenomena. In some cultures, treasure is believed to become "alive," choosing who may find it—and who must never return.

As always, we blend historical accounts with eyewitness testimony, folklore, and high-strangeness speculation. Whether you're a skeptic, a believer, or someone who just loves a good mystery, this episode will leave you questioning how much of history is still hidden… and whether some secrets are safer buried.

Turn down the lights, put on your headphones, and join us as we uncover the **Lost Treasures of the World**—where riches vanish, legends endure, and the past refuses to stay silent.

Tonight, we're joined by Cyn Shrader Hill — author, paranormal investigator, and a chronicler of what happens when death gets close… and then hesitates.

Cyn is the author of Death's Doorstep: Near-Death Experiences, Angel Rescues, & Spirit Warnings, a collection of firsthand accounts from people who stood at the threshold of death and felt something watching, intervening, and in some cases, turning them back. These are not polished stories of comfort or light — they are fractured moments where time bends, reality thins, and unseen forces make themselves known.

As a longtime investigator with Elk Valley Paranormal, Cyn has spent years documenting hauntings, encounters, and phenomena that refuse to stay neatly categorized. What makes her work unsettling is not just what people experience — but the consistency of how they experience it. The warnings. The presences without faces. The overwhelming sense that death is not random… and not entirely ours to choose.

In Death's Doorstep, Cyn explores angel rescues that feel less like miracles and more like interruptions, spirit warnings that arrive with urgency rather than comfort, and near-death experiences that leave survivors forever altered — more intuitive, more isolated, and sometimes afraid of what they now know.

Tonight, we're not asking whether the afterlife exists.

We're asking who controls the boundary… who decides when it opens…

and what it means when someone comes back with the feeling they were never meant to stay.

In this episode of the 222 Paranormal Podcast, Jennifer and Joe sit down with Ryan, paranormal researcher, investigator, and host of the Trapped Souls Podcast, for a dark and thought-provoking conversation about the unseen forces that may linger long after a place is abandoned.

Ryan shares what first drew him into the world of paranormal investigation and how his curiosity evolved into hands-on research inside reportedly haunted locations. We explore his approach to investigating the unknown—balancing skepticism with open-mindedness—and why some locations seem to hold onto emotional and spiritual energy far longer than others.

Throughout the discussion, Ryan opens up about chilling experiences from investigations, moments that challenged his understanding of reality, and encounters that stayed with him long after leaving the location. We also dive into the emotional impact of paranormal research, not just on investigators, but on witnesses and property owners who must live with unexplained activity.

As host of the Trapped Souls Podcast, Ryan has created a platform where investigators, teams, and everyday people can share their experiences without fear of ridicule. We talk about the stories behind the podcast, the investigations that left the deepest impression, and why Ryan believes some spirits—or energies—may still be trapped between worlds.

This episode explores haunted locations, lingering spirits, investigative methods, and the big question at the heart of paranormal research: when something doesn't move on, what does it want? Whether you're a seasoned investigator or someone fascinated by the unexplained, this conversation pulls you deep into the shadows of the paranormal.

Space is often described as silent, empty, and lifeless—but astronauts tell a very different story. In this episode of **222 Paranormal Podcast**, we explore the chilling and unexplained sounds, sightings, and encounters reported by astronauts and cosmonauts while orbiting Earth and traveling beyond it. These are not secondhand stories or urban legends. They are firsthand accounts from trained professionals who were never meant to experience fear, mystery, or the unknown while in space.

Listeners will hear about the strange "music" heard during the Apollo missions—unsettling whistling and electronic tones picked up while astronauts were on the far side of the Moon, completely cut off from Earth. Was it radio interference, or something far older and more intelligent than we've been told? We also discuss repeated reports of knocking, tapping, and scraping sounds coming from outside spacecraft, despite no visible debris or mechanical explanation.

The episode then dives deep into UFO encounters in orbit. From astronaut Gordon Cooper's lifetime of UFO sightings to unexplained objects pacing space shuttles, changing direction, and accelerating at impossible speeds, a pattern begins to emerge. We examine controversial NASA footage, including the STS-48 incident, and the mysterious "Fast Walkers" tracked by military radar—objects that enter Earth's atmosphere and return to space at will.

But the mystery doesn't stop with objects and sounds. Some astronauts and cosmonauts have reported hearing voices, seeing shadowy figures, or sensing a presence while alone in space. Others described luminous beings and profound spiritual encounters that blurred the line between science, consciousness, and the paranormal.

Is space truly empty, or is it a thin veil separating us from something ancient, intelligent, and observant? Could UFOs be interdimensional rather than extraterrestrial? And why do so many astronauts wait until retirement to share what they experienced beyond Earth?

This episode challenges everything we think we know about space exploration and invites listeners to reconsider humanity's place in the universe. Once we left the planet, something may have noticed—and it may still be watching.

What happens when the human mind doesn't just dream—but relocates?

In this chilling episode of 222 Paranormal, we explore one of the most unsettling and emotionally powerful phenomena in modern paranormal research: people who enter comas and experience entire alternate lives—sometimes spanning years or even decades—before waking up in their original bodies.

These are not fleeting dreams or disjointed hallucinations. The individuals featured in this episode describe fully realized realities complete with families, careers, emotional bonds, routines, and a continuous sense of time. For some, waking up was not a relief—it was a profound loss. They grieved spouses and children who never existed in this world, yet felt more real than anything waiting for them in the hospital room.

We examine four deeply disturbing cases, including a man who lived ten years with a wife and children during a coma, only to wake up minutes later in real time. Another story follows a woman who emerged from her coma with a completely different personality, claiming she had already lived—and completed—another life. Doctors struggled to explain her sudden changes in behavior, emotional detachment, and unexplained knowledge.

The episode also explores medical cases in which coma survivors describe experiences that resemble full reincarnations, including living entire lifetimes from birth to death. One of the most haunting stories involves a child who returned from a coma speaking and thinking like an adult, insisting he had already lived a full life and now felt trapped in a body that no longer fit who he was.

Throughout the episode, we discuss scientific explanations such as altered consciousness states, closed-loop neural realities, and trauma-induced personality shifts—while also diving into more unsettling paranormal theories. Could these coma lives be glimpses into parallel timelines? Astral travel? Past or future incarnations? Or is consciousness capable of leaving the body entirely when the physical mind shuts down?

This episode challenges everything we think we know about identity, time, and reality itself. If consciousness can leave the body and return changed… then where do we really go when we're unconscious?

And perhaps the most terrifying question of all:

What if this life is someone else's coma?

*** Do you have a Shared Death Experience you would like to share in a video? Joe is looking for guest for an upcoming series. ***

For decades, the Ouija board has been one of the most controversial objects in the paranormal world. Sold as a simple parlor game in toy stores, yet whispered about in haunted houses and horror stories, the Ouija board sits at the crossroads between curiosity and fear. In this episode of *222 Paranormal Podcast*, we dive deep into the history, myths, and real-world experiences surrounding this infamous spirit communication tool.

Often referred to as a "talking board," the Ouija board dates back to the late 1800s, emerging during the height of the Spiritualist movement. At a time when séances and spirit communication were becoming popular, the board promised a way for everyday people to communicate with the other side. But was it ever meant to be harmless entertainment—or something far more dangerous?

Throughout the episode, we explore how Ouija boards are believed to work, including theories involving subconscious movement (the ideomotor effect) and spiritual explanations involving spirit attachment, portals, and entities masquerading as the dead. Many paranormal investigators and religious leaders warn that Ouija boards act as open invitations, allowing anything—or anyone—to come through. Others argue the board is only as dangerous as the intent of the users.

We also discuss chilling real-life encounters shared by investigators, listeners, and witnesses—stories of unexplained activity, shadow figures, sudden personality changes, and long-term hauntings that began with a single Ouija session. Are these coincidences, psychological reactions, or something darker? The line between belief and experience becomes blurred as patterns begin to emerge.

The episode also breaks down common Ouija rules and warnings often passed down in paranormal circles: never play alone, never play in a graveyard, always close the session properly, and never ask certain questions. But do these rules actually offer protection, or are they folklore meant to give users a false sense of control?

As always, *222 Paranormal Podcast* approaches the topic with open minds and grounded discussion—respecting both skeptics and believers alike. Whether you see the Ouija board as a harmless game, a psychological tool, or a genuine gateway to the unknown, this episode will make you think twice before placing your hands on the planchette.

So the question remains: are Ouija boards simply reflecting our subconscious minds… or are we inviting something unseen to step into our world?

In this chilling episode of the 222 Paranormal Podcast, Jen and Joe Shortridge journey into the shadowy edges of history to uncover some of the world's weirdest discoveries—finds so strange, so unsettling, that they blur the line between science, the supernatural, and the unknown.

We begin with the Antikythera Mechanism, an ancient device pulled from a Greek shipwreck that behaves like a ghost in the archaeological record. This intricate system of gears could predict eclipses, planetary movements, and cosmic cycles thousands of years before such knowledge should have existed. Some believe its creators were guided by lost knowledge, celestial beings, or even spirits of ancient astronomers who understood the universe far better than we do today. Was this device a tool… or a message from a forgotten intelligence?

Next, we explore the haunting mystery of the Atacama Humanoid, a tiny six-inch body discovered in the Chilean desert. With an elongated skull, unnerving facial features, and bones aged far beyond its size, this being has sparked whispers of alien hybrids, interdimensional entities, and spirits bound to the land. Locals in the Atacama have long spoken of "star people" and desert guardians—was this discovery physical proof of those legends, or something far more unsettling?

From the desert, we descend into darkness at Lovelock Cave in Nevada, where ancient legends tell of red-haired giants known as the Si-Te-Cah. Oversized tools, massive footprints, and burned remains suggest a violent end to these towering beings. Paranormal researchers believe the cave may be spiritually charged, possibly haunted by the restless spirits of giants who perished in fire, leaving behind echoes that still linger in the stone.

The mystery deepens with the Voynich Manuscript, a centuries-old book written in an unrecognizable language and filled with illustrations that feel more dreamlike than earthly. Some psychics claim the manuscript carries residual energy—that it was created through automatic writing or channeled knowledge from nonhuman sources. Is it a spellbook, a coded grimoire, or a guide meant for minds not yet ready to understand it?

We then turn to modern mystery with the Montauk Monster, a bizarre creature that washed ashore near a location infamous for secret experiments and paranormal lore. Was this an undiscovered cryptid, a biological experiment gone wrong, or something that slipped through from another realm? Its sudden disappearance only adds to the fear that we weren't meant to examine it too closely.

Throughout the episode, Jen and Joe also touch on other eerie discoveries—the Baghdad Battery, impossible maps, ancient tools trapped in stone—each one whispering the same chilling message: history is not what we've been told.

Join us as we question reality, explore haunted discoveries, and uncover the unsettling truth that some things were never meant to be found.

In this chilling and informative episode of the 222 Paranormal Podcast, Joe and Jen sit down with Patrick, a passionate caretaker and historian connected to the Historical Gilchrist County Jail, one of Florida's lesser-known but deeply intriguing haunted locations. What begins as a conversation about preservation and history quickly turns into a deep dive into unexplained encounters, lingering spirits, and the emotional weight carried by a building that once held pain, punishment, and forgotten stories.

The Gilchrist County Jail, built in the early 1900s, has stood for generations as a symbol of justice, confinement, and human suffering. Patrick shares the rich history of the jail—who was housed there, how prisoners lived, and how the building transitioned from an active jail to a historical site. But as many paranormal investigators know, places with intense emotional energy rarely fall silent when their official purpose ends.

During the interview, Patrick recounts firsthand paranormal experiences reported by staff, visitors, and investigators alike. From unexplained footsteps echoing down empty cell blocks to voices heard when no one else is present, the activity inside the jail appears intelligent, persistent, and deeply tied to its past. Objects moving, cold spots, and shadow figures are all part of the jail's unsettling reputation.

Joe and Jen also explore the emotional side of investigating historic locations like this one. Patrick speaks openly about the responsibility that comes with preserving not only the building, but the stories of the people who lived and died there. The conversation touches on respect for the dead, ethical investigation practices, and why some spirits may choose to remain behind.

As the discussion unfolds, the team examines whether the jail's activity could be residual energy replaying traumatic moments—or something far more aware. Patrick offers insight into moments that made him question what he thought he knew about the paranormal, including experiences that occurred in broad daylight and in the presence of multiple witnesses.

This episode is a must-listen for fans of haunted jails, historical hauntings, and real-world paranormal investigations. Whether you're a skeptic, believer, or somewhere in between, the stories coming out of the Historical Gilchrist County Jail will leave you questioning what truly remains when the doors finally close.

Listen now and step inside a place where history never stopped speaking.

In this week's episode of the 222 Paranormal Podcast, we dive deep into the mysterious and powerful world of the mojo hand — one of the most iconic tools in Hoodoo and American folk magic. You've heard it in blues music, seen it referenced in Southern folklore, and maybe even spotted one tucked away in an old attic or antique store. But what exactly is a mojo hand? And why do so many people believe it has the ability to change someone's luck, protect against harm, or alter the course of a person's life?

We explore the origins of mojo hands, tracing them back to the spiritual blends of African, Native American, and European traditions. Traditionally made from red flannel and containing a carefully selected collection of roots, herbs, stones, coins, personal items, or written petitions, a mojo hand is believed to be more than an object — it is treated as a living spiritual tool that must be fed, respected, and kept hidden from others. Once touched or opened by someone else, the mojo's power is said to fade… or even turn against the owner.

This episode takes listeners into the heart of blues culture, where musicians like Muddy Waters and Lightnin' Hopkins famously sang about keeping their "mojo working." We explore why so many blues legends depended on these magical charm bags and how the tradition shaped parts of Southern music and identity.

We also share compelling stories from folklore and modern encounters, including the unnerving tale of a gambler whose luck skyrockets — until someone touches his mojo hand and his life unravels in days. You'll hear accounts from listeners who've found mojo bags tucked behind walls or under floorboards, along with chilling experiences that followed. We also uncover darker uses of mojo hands such as hot foot spells, hexing bags, and graveyard-consecrated charms meant to bind, confuse, or torment.

Throughout the episode, we break down different types of mojo hands — love hands, money hands, protection hands, and more — and discuss how rootworkers historically crafted each one with intention and spiritual purpose. We also examine why mojo hands are still widely used today, how genuine rootworkers create them, and why mass-produced versions are considered both disrespectful and powerless.

As we close, we reflect on the deeper meaning behind these charm bags: the belief in personal empowerment, the connection to ancestors and heritage, and the mysterious blend of psychology, intention, and spiritual energy that continues to draw people toward folk magic.

If you've ever found or used a mojo hand — or have your own experiences with magical objects — we invite you to share your stories with us. This is one episode where the supernatural meets culture, music, and mystery… so keep your mojo working and stay spooky!
