In this episode, two listeners from Oregon share the kinds of dreams that don't fade with the morning light. One recalls a chilling encounter with a mysterious, wide-brimmed figure who silently peers through a bedroom window watching after driving down her Grandparent's road. The other finds herself speaking with a woman who calmly exchanges what if feels like to die. These aren't nightmares in the traditional sense, they are quiet, lifelike and deeply unsettling. The most disturbing part...they felt true! Join us as we explore what happens when dreams mimic reality just a little too closely and linger long after we wake.

Episode Summary: Creepy Dolls – From Childhood Toys to Haunted Horrors
In this spine-chilling episode, Christine and Kim dive into the eerie world of creepy dolls. They kick things off by exploring the origins of dolls, from ancient artifacts to beloved childhood toys. Then, the conversation takes a darker turn with stories of infamous haunted dolls hanging from trees south of Mexico, Robert the Doll, the mischievous figure behind countless cursed tales; Annabelle, the supposedly demon-possessed Raggedy Ann locked away by paranormal investigators; and Chucky, the fictional killer doll who became a horror icon. Along the way, Christine and Kim share their own unsettling experiences and personal histories with dolls—some nostalgic, others downright unnerving.

Whether you’re fascinated by the supernatural or just creeped out by porcelain eyes that follow you across the room, this episode is not for the faint of heart.

Special Thank You:

Sally the Doll

The Pacific Crest Trail (PCT) is such a vast and challenging trail, and hearing about missing hikers like Kris Fowler, David O'Sullivan, and Chris Sylvia adds an intense and emotional layer to the story. The PCT spans such a diverse range of terrain, 2650 miles and it’s easy to see how it could become perilous.

Join Dave (one of our partners), Christine, and Kim as they provide valuable perspectives on both the personal side of hiking and the critical role of search and rescue. Their insights help paint a vivid picture of the dangers of the trail as well as the camaraderie and culture that exist among hikers.

A special thank you to Andrea Lankford and her amazing book Trail of the Lost

Join us as we explore an iconic and historic building located in southern Oregon filled with rich history, spooky tales and a very, very large basement. Witness describe parts of the building as "a step back in time" which once housed a furniture/hardware store, a pharmacy, medical staff and a five n dime. Shop keepers have witnessed shadows, strange appearances and writings on the walls, objects moving, lights turning on and off and unexplained feelings of never being alone. 

A very special thank you to Alicia for loving ghost stories as much as we do and for sharing your time with us--let's do it again! Also, to the maintenance man (left unnamed) who was more excited to talk about the heating and air than anything spooky!
