    From Candle Magic to Demonology w/ Kalei Bogetti | Ghost City Podcast

    Let us know who you want to hear next! You can laugh about “voodoo candles” at a gas station right up until someone explains why they work and why they sometimes go wrong. We sit down with Kalei, known online as kaleiseesdeadpeople and The Crystal Patch, to talk about witchcraft, psychic mediumship, and what it actually means to “manipulate energy to create change” in a modern, practical way. We dig into intention as a real skill: why vagueness creates messy outcomes, how visualization and focus shape results, and what beginners should do first if they want to explore candle magic, petitions, cleansing, tarot, or spiritual protection. Kalei shares the unsexy advice that saves people the most pain: read books, learn foundations, and expect trial and error before you expect “big” manifestations. We also talk about her goal in this work now, helping people make decisions, feel grounded, and reconnect with loved ones through mediumship readings without turning spirituality into a performance. Then the conversation shifts into the paranormal world that pulled her in fast: 200 plus investigations, what she believes separates human spirits from something darker, and why she uses the word demon as “a non-human, negative, parasitic entity” rather than a purely religious label. Kalei walks us through the pattern she’s studying in demonology, how fear and negative energy can escalate experiences inside haunted locations, and why sometimes the smartest move is simply leaving the building.

    Can Consciousness Explain the Paranormal? w/ Serena DC | Ghost City Podcast

    Let us know who you want to hear next! Aliens, ghosts, consciousness, and the algorithm that decides what you see next all collide in this conversation with Serena DC, co-founder of Spark TV and creator of The Hybrids. We start with the question most people are afraid to ask out loud: what does it actually mean when someone claims they’re an alien hybrid or says they’ve had children with extraterrestrials? Serena walks us through why she made a documentary on the topic, how she presses for truth without instant cynicism, and why the sheer number of Goldilocks planets makes “impossible” a lot harder to defend than we think. From there, we zoom out into the deeper framework that quietly ties the paranormal together: consciousness. We talk about the brain as a receiver, intuition as a kind of signal, and a practical method Serena uses to get unstuck creatively and emotionally: ask a clear question, then literally listen for the answer. Tim connects that to his own work on a consciousness theory and to how AI tools like ChatGPT can train us to ask better questions, even while hinting that we may not need the “device” as much as we think. We also get into timeline shifting, mental health, and Mel Robbins’ Let Them concept as a surprisingly sharp tool for dropping anger and control. Finally, Serena breaks down Spark TV’s mission to modernise paranormal and consciousness content, fix the discovery problem that buries great creators, and prepare for a near future where disclosure and better evidence could flip the conversation from “is it real?” to “what now?” If you’re curious about alien hybrids, paranormal streaming, the consciousness field, and the next era of UFO and afterlife media, hit play, then subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave a review.

    The Human Side of Paranormal Investigation w/ Shari DeBenedetti | Ghost City Podcast

    Let us know who you want to hear next! Something grabs your ankles the moment you slide into bed. Your wrists get forced down. You try to yell, but nothing comes out. Then a perfect copy of your boyfriend appears at the foot of the bed, except the face is a blank, distant black. Shari DeBenedetti i doesn’t tell that story for shock value, she tells it because it’s the moment that pushed her from fear into a lifetime of questions. We sit down with Shari, a paranormal investigator of nearly 30 years and a familiar face from Ghost Hunters and Ghost Nation, to talk about what real fieldwork looks like when you care about evidence, people, and your own integrity. We get into debunking the everyday (electrical, plumbing, pests, health) and why calling everything “demonic” is not just lazy, it actively harms homeowners and cheapens paranormal investigation. Shari also shares a wild case tied to the Danvers asylum area, where activity centered on her partner, escalated over time, and forced a hard look at what “attachment” might really mean. Then we go deeper into the part most shows skip: research. Town halls, libraries, historical societies, neighbors, and the slow work of matching names and stories to experiences. We also talk about EVPs, tools like a Dead Bell device, and the strange pattern many investigators report: spirits might answer practical questions, but go silent when asked what the afterlife is like. If you’re into ghost stories with substance, paranormal TV behind-the-scenes honesty, and the human side of contacting loved ones, hit play.

    Honest Ghost Hunting and the Future of Paranormal Investigation w/ Ghost Trip Investigation | Ghost City Podcast

    Let us know who you want to hear next! A skeptic walks into a “haunted” pub expecting an easy laugh, and walks out with his worldview cracked open. That’s where our conversation with Adam and Dan from Ghost Trip Investigation begins, and it only gets bigger from there. We talk about how GTI grew from COVID-era TikTok livestreams into a weekly, five-hours-at-a-time grind that millions now watch, and why they insist on filming paranormal investigations live even when it means risking a totally uneventful night. We get honest about the uncomfortable truth behind ghost hunting: most of it is waiting, listening, and trying not to fill silence with nonsense. Adam and Dan explain how they keep viewers engaged without screaming through hallways or inventing “demons,” how they debunk suspicious moments in real time, and why “nothing happened” can actually be the strongest proof that a team isn’t staging evidence. We also dig into what they think they might be communicating with, from consciousness and survival after death to the stone tape theory and time-slip style ideas that raise more questions than answers. Then we go on the road. You’ll hear stories from Arizona (Jerome and Tombstone), culture shocks from their Texas run, and a deep dive into Yorktown Memorial Hospital and why its history still clings to the building. We also tackle the Annabelle conversation head-on: the aura people report, the negative EVPs Adam and Dan say they captured, and the nightmare aftermath that mirrors Tim's own experiences with darker-feeling cases. If you care about authentic paranormal content, community trust, and the future of ghost hunting beyond TV-style escalation, this one is for you.

    Ghost Hunters on Shadow Figures, Haunted Hospitals, and Real Evidence w/ Richel Stratton & Brian Murray | Ghost City Podcast

    Let us know who you want to hear next! A shadow in a hallway is one thing. Watching a “lab coat” figure glide out from a nurses station when the person you sent down the corridor is wearing black leggings is something else entirely. We're joined by Ghost Hunters standouts Richel Stratton and Brian Murray for a wide-ranging, brutally honest talk about what actually keeps investigators in the field after the adrenaline fades. We dig into the moments that started it all, Richel childhood encounter with a figure in period clothing and Brian’s first full-on sighting that left him researching out of fear and sleepless nights. From there we get into one of our favorite haunted locations, Old South Pittsburgh Hospital, including why it produces so many reports of shadow people, EVPs and apparitions, plus the recurring legend of the tall doctor often identified as Dr. Joseph E. Shelby. If you’ve ever searched for credible Old South Pittsburgh Hospital ghost stories, this conversation gets specific about what was seen and how investigators react when the gear is dead and the weird stuff still happens. Then we head to the Conjuring House and talk about what the cameras don’t always show: how a location can feel peaceful in daylight and “switch” at night, the sounds of voices and movement, rattling doors, beds being bumped, and the very human reality of getting spooked enough to want a buddy for a dark hallway. We also tackle the demon debate with a clear stance: not every aggressive entity deserves the label, and paranormal TV and viral videos often reward the loudest claim instead of the best evidence. We wrap with what they’re building now, including "Adventures With Brichel - The Road Trip" on Beacon TV, their podcast format, and why real on-camera chemistry is impossible to fake for long.

    From Lizzie Borden’s Kitchen to the People Behind Ghost Stories w/ Amy Bruni | Ghost City Podcast

    Let us know who you want to hear next! A handwritten meatloaf recipe from Lizzie Borden turns into a surprisingly deep question: can food be a more honest way to time travel than any EVP session? We sit down with Amy Bruni to follow that thread from haunted houses to historic kitchens, and it gets personal fast. Amy shares how 30 years of paranormal research and TV work on Ghost Hunters and Kindred Spirits shaped her biggest rule: don’t reduce people to the way they died. We dig into why the best investigations start with real history, genealogy, and the small details that made someone’s daily life feel like a life. That same philosophy powers her cookbooks Food to Die For and the new Cuisine to Kill For, where recipes from haunted locations connect to true crime stories and the lived experience behind the legend. We also talk about the modern paranormal media machine: why “demons everywhere” sells, why belief systems make people shut down, and why Amy thinks the scariest thing you can run into might be a living person, not a spirit. Add in motherhood, anxiety, and the pressure of helping families in crisis, and you get a candid look at what respectful paranormal investigation actually demands.

    Ghost Hunting, Haunted Tourism, and the Ethics of Evidence w/ Ghost Brothers | Ghost City Podcast

    Let us know who you want to hear next! The Ghost Brothers pull up in-house with us in New Orleans and the vibe is exactly what you want from a paranormal podcast: real friends, real stories, and zero pretending. Dalen Spratt, Marcus Harvey and Juwan Mass talk about how they got started as “fish out of water” investigators, why that honesty connected with fans, and what it’s like staying close after a decade of filming haunted locations while life keeps moving. From there we get into the messy middle of the paranormal world: the Annabelle doll panic, the Warren controversies, and why famous cases can contain truth while still being inflated into legend. We also unpack what “evidence” even means when you’re trying to be fair, especially when the Ghost Brothers describe an SLS camera moment that made the room go silent. That conversation naturally turns toward ethics, because haunted tourism and ghost hunting content can drift into treating real trauma like entertainment if you’re not careful. We also go beyond ghosts into the surge of cryptid curiosity. Tim shares two Bigfoot encounters, including footprint casts in remote Oregon and a roadside sighting that still messes with his head, and we talk about why people are hungry for mysteries like UFOs and Sasquatch right now. The bigger takeaway is simple: curiosity is worth protecting, and exploring the world beats living on a screen.

    Can Fear Create a Haunted Experience? w/ Jake Bruce | Ghost City Podcast

    Let us know who you want to hear next! Something weird happens when you spend enough time in “haunted” places: you start wondering how much of the fear is out there and how much is in your own head. Jake Bruce joins us to talk about building a career in ghost hunting on YouTube while staying honest, staying sane, and refusing to treat every noise as proof. We get into how he and his brother started by taking paranormal investigation way too seriously, why that can mess with your mental health, and what changed when he decided to lighten up and think more logically. We break down the psychology that sits under almost every EVP session and late-night walkthrough. Jake shares why the Velisca Axe Murder House felt oppressive even to a skeptical friend, and we wrestle with the uncomfortable question: do expectations make a location feel more haunted? From fear of ghosts to fear of the dark, we talk pareidolia, fight-or-flight, and why nighttime can turn ordinary sounds into “evidence” if you’re not careful. Then we go deep on Gettysburg history and hauntings. Jake explains why Gettysburg feels like a time machine, why it keeps pulling people back, and how he’s investigating famous Gettysburg ghost photos and that well-known “soldiers in the trees” video by tracking down original sources, cameras, film, and possible recreation methods. We also touch cryptids like Bigfoot and Mothman, what makes a claim believable, and where paranormal entertainment might be headed next as TV fades and YouTube evolves. If you like ghost hunting, haunted history, EVPs, skeptical debunking, and honest paranormal storytelling, this one’s for you.

    The Science Behind Skinwalker Ranch w/ Kaleb Bench | Ghost City Podcast

    Let us know who you want to hear next! A rocket climbs, a light appears, and the “normal” rules start slipping. We’re joined by Kaleb Bench from Secrets of Skinwalker Ranch to unpack what the team is actually doing when they say they’re running a scientific investigation and why they keep repeating the same experiments even when viewers think they have seen it before. When you only get 45 minutes on TV, context disappears fast, so we slow it down and follow the details. We talk through the ranch’s core tools and why they matter: rocket launches as repeatable stimuli, drones as measurement platforms, GPS anomalies that suggest timing or signal interference, and Erik Bard’s Metaframe system designed to catch rapid changes in light that standard cameras miss. Caleb explains the infamous moments people argue about online, including drones that drop after their systems believe they “moved” a mile instantly, strange blue orb-like streaks near rockets, and LIDAR scans that show interference patterns unlike other sites the same experts map worldwide. Then the conversation swerves into the stuff nobody expects, including a jawbone an expert matches to a juvenile direwolf and how “unknown DNA” results can be more about database limits than a clean debunk. We also get into the big, uncomfortable questions the data keeps forcing: is this human technology, a natural geophysical effect in the Uinta Basin, or something closer to non-human intelligence? And if the ranch reacts to energy, attention, and experiments, what does that imply about what’s watching and why it responds? If you’re curious about Skinwalker Ranch, UAP research, UFO sightings, electromagnetic effects, and how real-world field science works when the target won’t cooperate, hit play.

    Buying a Haunted House and Living With the Consequences w/ Ashley of Ghost Gossip Podcast | Ghost City Podcast

    Let us know who you want to hear next! A haunting is creepy, sure, but the real gut punch is the moment you realise telling the truth might cost you your credibility. Ashley from the Ghost Gossip Podcast joins us to talk about buying a haunted house without knowing it, renovating it anyway, and watching small, “explainable” moments turn into a pattern you cannot unsee. When her kids start reporting their own experiences, the story stops being a spooky anecdote and becomes a family problem that demands real choices. We get into what actually helps when a home feels spiritually charged: saging, prayer, intention setting, and the unglamorous work of boundaries. Ashley explains why she thinks the ritual matters less than the energy and behaviour behind it, and we compare notes on skepticism, partners who need proof, and why some spirits seem to push buttons on purpose. Along the way we talk mental health, trauma, hypervigilance, and how those life experiences might make some people more sensitive to shifts in a room, a mood, or a presence. Then we zoom out to the wider paranormal world: haunted hotels, road investigations, and the kind of evidence you cannot easily document, like feeling a hug at the Crescent Hotel or sensing a personality in a space. Ashley shares where she wants to take her show next with deeper haunted history research, including notorious locations like Missouri State Penitentiary, and why getting the history right matters as much as any ghost story.

    Ghost Adventures, Attachments, and Life After the Investigation w/ Jay Wasley | Ghost City Podcast

    Let us know who you want to hear next! You can feel the moment a “fun ghost hunt” turns into something heavier, and Jay Wasley knows that line better than most. Jay joins us from Ghost Adventures, where he’s spent over 16 years filming, investigating, and dealing with the part nobody sees: what follows you home. We talk candidly about the real risks of paranormal investigation, why dark cases can be an adrenaline rush, and why that rush can come with injuries, anxiety, and the slow creep of negativity if you don’t know how to reset. We also go beyond the haunted-location headlines. Jay shares how music became his most reliable grounding tool after intense investigations, how he watches for the warning signs that something feels “off,” and why creativity and nature can be a lifeline when you’ve been staring into the unknown. From there, we dig into belief systems, prayer vs meditation, intention, and why staying open-minded matters more than picking the “right” label. Then we get into the stories people ask about nonstop: Demon House in Gary, Indiana and Goatman’s Bridge in Texas, plus what makes certain locations feel uniquely dangerous and why beginners should not copy what they see on TV. We also explore a future where paranormal evidence is treated more like research, with shared databases, repeatable patterns, and smarter ways to connect the dots. If you’ve ever wondered what Ghost Adventures is like off-camera, what “attachments” really mean, or how to investigate without blowing up your life, press play.

    Mirror Scrying, Mediumship, and Paranormal Investigation w/ Third Eye Paranormal | Ghost City Podcast

    Let us know who you want to hear next! They’re filming a wholesome food show about local bakeries, and then two weeks later they’re back on camera helping people untangle real ghost stories. That contrast is exactly why this conversation with Third Eye Paranormal works so well. We sit down with Kim, Amy, and Chelsea to talk about what they actually do when the lights go down, the gear comes out, and someone decides to stare into a mirror on purpose. We get specific about mirror scrying and trance mediumship: what it feels like in the body, what they claim to see in the reflection, and why intention is the difference between a focused practice and feeling like something is happening to you at random. We also tackle the skeptical questions head-on, including how they sanity-check experiences, why confirmation often arrives at the end of a case, and how they balance curiosity with safety by staying grounded and working as a team. Then we go down the rabbit holes listeners love: thrifting for haunted objects, psychometry, “haunted doesn’t mean evil,” and what a spell candle is when you strip away the internet panic and focus on intention and symbolism. There’s also a haunted Airbnb moment, the name “Greg” repeating in real time, and even a detour into Bigfoot and the Bridgewater Triangle because paranormal conversations never stay in one lane for long. If you’re into paranormal investigation, mediumship, mirror scrying, haunted antiques, EVPs, and the real-life boundaries that keep it all manageable, you’ll get a lot out of this one.

    Dark History, Haunted Objects, and the Medieval Torture Museum | Ghost City Podcast

    Let us know who you want to hear next! Rats, fire, a metal cage, and a slow inevitability. That’s where we start, because medieval torture isn’t really “ancient history” when you can still trace its logic in the way societies talk about punishment today. We’re joined by Kim Ashmore, the general manager for the Medieval Torture Museum in Los Angeles, and we ask the questions most people avoid once the details get too real: what were these devices built to do, how did they actually work, and why did anyone think this belonged in a justice system? Kim walks us through the museum’s mission and why interactivity matters for historical learning, especially when the subject is execution tools and torture devices like the guillotine, Iron Maiden, pendulum blade, rack, and more. We unpack the courtroom purpose behind torture, the brutal incentive structure of forced confessions, and the way public fear shaped “order.” Then we go to the darkest corner of the map, comparing infamous methods like the Sicilian bull, torture by rats, impalement on a spire, and the bloody eagle, plus what it reveals about deterrence and spectacle. Because we’re Ghost City, we also can’t resist the haunted object angle. If trauma can imprint on places and things, what does that mean for a museum full of instruments built for suffering? We end by talking modern punishment, including solitary confinement, and where you can find the Medieval Torture Museum beyond LA, with locations in Chicago and St. Augustine.

    Behind the Paranormal Curtain: Ghost Hunting Lessons from Pennhurst Paracon | Ghost City Podcast

    Let us know who you want to hear next! Pennhurst Paracon is chaos in the best way: packed rooms, big stories, and that moment when a crowd goes silent because someone just shared something they have never said out loud. We pulled together the strongest clips from the celebrity panels so you can hear what seasoned investigators actually fear, what they have learned the hard way, and how they think about risk, respect, and evidence when the lights are off. Our panel highlights feature: Patti Negri & Jay Wasley Ghost Brothers Ghost Hunters Katrina Weidman Ghost Trip Investigation Thomas Winterton, Superintendent at Skinwalker Ranch Sons of Appalachia Project Fear Twin Paranormal Nick & Tessa Groff Rob Gutro, Pet Medium You’ll hear everything from a chilling Ouija board story that spirals into real danger, to haunted location talk that gets oddly specific, including why Old South Pittsburgh Hospital leaves people rattled. We also dig into practical ghost hunting habits like rolling cameras early, staying alert when you are leaving, and why “attachments” come up so often. When the conversation turns darker, guests share what certain places feel like in the body and how they reset afterward using grounding, prayer or meditation, salt baths, and intentional boundaries. Then we pivot into high strangeness with Skinwalker Ranch updates: drilling into the mesa, pulling out thin layers of metal described as forged, and wrestling with what it could mean when the data refuses to fit a neat explanation. We close on something unexpectedly human and comforting with pet medium insights on grief and the ways animals may reconnect through dreams, familiar sounds, and those small signs you notice when you are quiet enough to look.

    How to Tell Gettysburg Ghost Stories the Right Way w/ Andy Andrews | Ghost City Podcast

    Let us know who you want to hear next! Gettysburg does not need fake myths or manufactured scares. The history is already heavy enough. In Part 2 of our conversation with Ghost City Tours Gettysburg manager Andy Andrews, we dig into what it means to tell ghost stories in a town where the past still feels painfully close to the surface. Tim and Andy talk honestly about the problem with sensationalized hauntings, why historical accuracy matters, and how respectful storytelling can leave room for both documented history and genuinely unexplained experiences. From there, we step into the stranger side of Gettysburg. We discuss shadowy figures crossing public squares, phantom footsteps inside empty buildings, unexplained piano notes in locked rooms, and eerie moments at places like Little Round Top and Iverson’s Pits. The conversation culminates in one of the strangest encounters either of them has experienced: a cheerful man in mismatched historical clothing who appeared, held a conversation, and then vanished where there was nowhere left to go. If you are fascinated by haunted history, Gettysburg travel, Civil War ghosts, and the challenge of separating folklore from real paranormal experiences, this episode takes the story even deeper. ******* Watch this episode and more paranormal content by subscribing to our YouTube page! ******* Visit our website to schedule a Ghost Tour today!

    Gettysburg Ghost Stories, EVPs, and Civil War Hauntings w/ Andy Andrews | Ghost City Podcast

    Let us know who you want to hear next! Something about Gettysburg keeps pulling people back. Maybe it is the history, maybe it is the grief still embedded in the landscape, or maybe it is the feeling that the past is not fully past when you stand where thousands died. In Part 1 of this two-part conversation on the Ghost City Podcast, Tim sits down with Ghost City Tours Gettysburg manager Andy Andrews to explore the experiences that convinced him the paranormal is real. From a childhood spent near battlefields to early ghost hunts with cassette recorders and raw EVP sessions, Andy explains why direct voice responses can feel far more convincing than photos in an era where AI makes visual evidence harder to trust. We also dive deep into some of Gettysburg’s most haunted locations, including the Hoffman Mansion, the Cashtown Inn, and the battlefield itself. Along the way, we discuss shadow figures, doors moving on their own, unsettling basement energy tied to Civil War medical history, and what it feels like to witness a full-bodied apparition with your own eyes at places like Triangle Field. If you are interested in Gettysburg ghost stories, Civil War hauntings, EVP evidence, and real paranormal investigation, this episode lays the groundwork for an even deeper dive in Part 2. ******* Watch this episode and more paranormal content by subscribing to our YouTube page! ******* Visit our website to schedule a Ghost Tour today!

    The Truth About Paranormal Evidence, AI, and Ghost Hunting w/ Steve Gonsalves | Ghost City Podcast

    Let us know who you want to hear next! Ghost stories are easy to binge. Living with the subject matter for decades is something else entirely. We sit down with Steve Gonsalves from Ghost Hunters to talk about what paranormal investigation looks like when the cameras are off: the sleepless nights, the intrusive memories, and the emotional weight that can hit you days later when a case finally sinks in. We also get nerdy about the parts of the field that are changing fast. Steve shares how conversations with physicists and geophysicists have shaped his thinking on residual hauntings, frequency, energy, and vibration, plus why serious consciousness research is making the “impossible” feel less dismissible than it used to. From debunking common misreads like orbs to questioning shadow phenomena, the goal is the same: filter noise, keep your standards high, and stay honest about what you do not know. Then we step right into the AI problem. Deepfakes and synthetic media can poison paranormal evidence overnight, but AI can also be a powerful tool for evidence filtration, pattern recognition, and analyzing huge datasets like environmental readings and time-based activity. We talk gear myths, why many people misunderstand EMF meters, and a wild EVP experiment involving a vacuum sealed box that raises bigger questions about how electronic voice phenomena might work. If you’re into paranormal investigation, Ghost Hunters, EVPs, haunted houses, or the science behind the unexplained, you’ll walk away with new frameworks and a few new questions to argue about. Subscribe, share this with a friend who loves the weird, and leave a review with your own theory: what do you think we’re actually communicating with? ******* Watch this episode and more paranormal content by subscribing to our YouTube page! ******* Visit our website to schedule a Ghost Tour today!
