This week we head to the Centennial State - Colorado to discuss some strange and spooky places! First, Kenzie talks about the bizarre sightings and occurrences from people living or visiting the San Luis Valley. People have reported feelings of unease, being watched, and possible extraterrestrial encounters. Next, Lauren takes us through the hauntings in the ominously named, Black Forest. A small town hidden among dark trees where more than just humans reside. Join us as we venture into a state where UFOs lurk above and spirits roam below.

We’re back to our regularly scheduled programming and heading to the Garden State — New Jersey! First, Kenzie dives into the eerie legends surrounding Shades of Death Road, where countless travelers claim to have witnessed ghosts, strange mists, and unexplained phenomena. It’s definitely a “road less traveled” for a reason. Then, Lauren shares the heartbreaking story of Gary Grant Jr., a young boy who vanished after being seen with a friend and was later found not far from home. Despite multiple suspects and years of investigation, his case remains unsolved and deeply haunting. Join us as we journey through New Jersey’s chilling mysteries!

-

As the case is still unsolved, anyone with information on the case is urged to call detectives at 609-909-7666 or call 609-909-7800 or visit the Atlantic County Prosecutor’s Office website

We’re headed to the Keystone State — Pennsylvania! We share two vastly different stories that have the same eerie question: are they fact or fiction? First, Lauren dives into the chilling case of Miranda Barbour, a young woman whose shocking confession blurs the line between truth and tall tale. Then, Kenzie unravels the legend of the Squonk, a pitiful creature said to wander Pennsylvania’s hemlock forests, weeping over its own less-than-desirable appearance. But when cornered, the Squonk’s sorrow takes an even stranger turn—and you’ll have to listen to find out what happens next. Join us as we investigate whether there’s any truth behind these heartbreaking stories.

We’re wrapping up our last Spooky Special of the year—and this one’s all about castles! First, Lauren takes us to the Czech Republic to explore the eerie Houska Castle. Beyond the spirits said to haunt its ancient halls, legend has it that hidden deep beneath the chapel lies a gateway to hell itself. Then, Kenzie heads to Ireland to uncover the chilling secrets of Leap Castle. With centuries of bloodshed and betrayal, it’s no wonder this fortress is overflowing with restless spirits. Join us as we wander through stone corridors and uncover the haunting histories behind some of the world’s creepiest castles!

This week’s October Spooky Special is extra special — we’re sharing cases that were brought to us directly by the victims’ families. First, Kenzie tells the story of Janice Lillie, a loving mother and pillar of her community whose life was tragically cut short in November 1991. Though there was a conviction, some pieces still don’t quite fit. Is this case truly solved, or is there more beneath the surface? Then, Lauren shares the story of Faithe Ely — a young woman who seemed to be turning her life around when she died in what was reported as a hit and run. Or was it? Questions surrounding Faithe’s cause of death continue to stir doubt about what really happened that night. Join us as we dig into the details, unravel the clues, and seek answers in these haunting cases.
