Girls And Ghouls

Happy Thanksgiving Week, friends! We're so thankful for you. And so thankful that this week's story list doesn't involve our homes at all. Because we're bringing it this week.We're traveling overseas and visiting one of the oldest standing buildings in England. You guessed it. We're going to the Ancient Ram Inn. And it isn't just old but brimming with darkness. And so many questions surround the innkeeper. Why was the darkness surrounding him so much? We want answers!Once we're done with that lovely trip, it's back to the US. California, to be exact. There lies Preston Castle, a beautiful estate with a not so beautiful history. Abuse and surgeries on the floor. Manhunts and beatings. And a young girl in a bell tower that won't mind scaring the ever living daylights out of you.Join the Group : Facebook.com/groups/girlsandghoulsMerch: girlsandghouls.comEmail us: girlsandghoulspodcast@gmail.com See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

After a week off, we're back with another episode that is a little milder than usual. Scary but at least you'll get a teeny bit of a breather.This week, we're heading to Georgia with Kirsten and she's sharing everything she knows about the famously haunted Fox Theater. This breathtaking theater isn't just home to the stars but to some love sick ghosts as well. And Kirsten would know since she was there.Erin's story has no location. Because she's covering the story of the Dibbuk Box. And this is no ordinary wine box. Trapped inside is something so dangerous, even the most fool hardy of individuals isn't willing to open it.Did I say this episode was mild? I may have lied.Have a story? Share it!

And let's be honest... there's no such thing as a boring ghost when you're in Georgia! This ghost isn't just insanely active but it's kind of annoying too.If you need a little more scare in your life, the Linda Vista Hospital in California will give you everything you need. Even a breathy growl on your ear as it shoves you out the door.Maybe you should keep the lights on.Join the group! facebook.com/groups/girlsandghoulsSend your stories! girlsandghoulspodcast@gmail.com See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Ready for more haunting tales of terror? Do you have your bravery pants on?This week, we're headed to Englad to meet with a Monk. But this monk isn't silent and he isn't particularly kind. He's lingering about, looking for his next victim and confident that he'll remove anyone in his path. Even if he is dead.Come back to the US for a trip to New Orleans. But don't use the oven because it hasn't been changed.

And so we're back, from a lovely week, to bring you nothing but nightmares. You thought last week was scary, this week is so much worse.Bad enough that I'm nearly willing to call this the cursed episode.This week, Kirsten is taking us on a journey to England where we're not going ghost hunting. We're going to see a creature so terrifying that it leaves nothing behind but grimaces on corpses.When you're done there, buckle up. We're heading to Gary, Indiana, where you'll visit the 200 Demon House. This is even scarier given when it happened.Take a breath. This is going to be rough.Join the Group : facebook.com/groups/girlsandghouls See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

October is here and we are all for it. The season of spooky. Of hauntings and mayhem. And it's our first October with this podcast!To kick of the season, Erin's channeling her inner terror and taking us to Brazil, where we'll meet a young girl plagued by a poltergeist that's out for revenge. This story has a tragic ending so bring your tissues. And maybe keep the lights on.Once we're done in Brazil, we're going to visit the Moffitt Family. This family had quite a nuisance of an entity living in their home. One that not only played pranks but required blood rituals. Not cool.Love this episode?

It's time for another spooktacular episode of Girls and Ghouls. This week is not just scary but downright weird.We're headed to Switzerland to explore The Joller House. And there's no shortage of creepiness here. Between boney fingers that caress you in the night and a woman lost in melancholy emotions, you're sure to feel a pang of sorrow for the poor Joller family by the end of this tale.But you'll perk right back up when you head back to the states for a visit to the Skirvin Hotel. Which really should be called the skeevy hotel, given that most of the ghosts that haunt this joint are after just one thing. And even the NBA players are safe from the advances made here!Send Us Your Stories! girlsandghoulspodcast@gmail.comJoin the Group: facebook.com/groups/girlsandghouls See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

All I wanted to do was get a good night of sleep. And this episode ensured that won't happen. Ever.Erin's taking us up north! We're going to visit the Seguin Light, which is the second oldest lighthouse in Maine. It's beautiful. Quaint. Surrounded by nature and a grey ocean.Oh yeah, and full of axe murderer ghosts and the nonstop music of a woman slowly driving her husband mad.When you've had enough of Maine, Kirsten's taking you to Missouri. But don't expect any rest. We're going to the Screaming House and it didn't earn it's name because of the soothing nature of the home.The monster inside would appreciate you not visiting.Join the Group!

Just in time for the coming fall weather, we're taking you on a fun journey over the border.This week, Kirsten's taking us the beautiful Banff Springs Hotel in Canada. But don't let the beauty fool you. This hotel has it's fair share of secrets. A bride that burned. A murder/suicide. A room that doesn't exist.And the souls that are there to remind you of the history.Once you're done in Canada, let's take a quit trip to Eerie Erie, Pennsylvania, where you'll find a cemetery. Not just any cemetery, though. This one comes with hell hounds, a witches circle and most terrifyingly, a mausoleum filled to the brim with blood drained corpses.Better wear a scarf.Join the group : facebook.com/groups/girlsandghouls See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Or will we?This week, we're going with Erin on a trip down memory lane. Vacation time meant lots of time to explore new haunted locations and The Knickerbocker was on the list. This haunted hotel boasts a lovely parlor as well as a ghost that demands his dinner. Oh, and someone that wants to shove you down the stairs.Kirsten keeps it in Pennsylvania and shares the terrifying story of the Smurl family. And the fact that this family lived in a home connected to their parents isn't the only thing that makes us scream!

Here we go, one more time. Everybody's feeling fine, here we go now!No, that has nothing to do with this week's episode. Literally at all. But it's stuck in my head as I type it and I thought I'd share.This week, we're chatting it up with some light-hearted celeb talk to get ready for a spooky and sensational episode about things that left me with my jaw dropped.We'll start this show off with a trip to Louisiana. Nope, we're not doing anything gross. Not gory gross. But instead, we're headed to the Myrtles Plantation, one of the most haunted locations in America. This plantation has been converted from home of a member of the whiskey rebellion to a bed and breakfast for those seeking a romantic weekend getaway.Or, ya know, a ghost in the mirror.Once we're done in the Myrtles, we're headed across the Atlantic to talk about Emily Sagee. And while she was a fabulous teacher, she wasn't known for her abilities as an educator. Don't get me wrong, Emily was a great teacher. But the twin she never saw that always tr

Can you believe it? Season One of Girls & Ghouls is wrapping up. We're stopping at 20 so episode 18 is feeling bittersweet.But we're not slowing down this time! This week, we're going on a journey to visit a ghost in Texas. Austin, in fact. We're donning our fanciest dress and stepping into one of the ritziest hotels known to man. The Driskill Hotel. This multi-million dollar hotel has brought celebrities and tourists alike but the fact that is was built during a time of cowboys and wild west means just one thing. You're absolutely going to find some happy haunters in your hotel room. And one of them might just be a bit of a ladies man, hoping to get some action while a pretty lady is in the shower.Once we're done with that whole gig, we're headed back to Pennsylvania. Because, ya know, Erin was in the mood for a stay-cation. We're going to the Poconos, friends, where we're going to visit a candle shop. One named... The Candle Shoppe. Apt!This old brownstone establishment won't just spook y

We're in vacation mode. Obviously. Because the stories we keep moving towards are 100% surrounding your travel destinations.What? Didn't you know that you could get travel advice from a paranormal podcast? This is more of a where not to go than a suggestion of places to visit!Kirsten's taking the lead this week and we're going on a luxurious vacation full of tropical breezes. Oh, and a creature that wants to eat you. Like, literally eat you. Hear the terrifying tale of an island that's tormented by an ancient spirit that isn't going for a jump scare but will attack you to the point that police don't even know how to handle the brutality.We're going to calm things down with Erin. In fact, we're heading to Oklahoma to a lovely little bed and breakfast called the Stone Lion Inn. It's a lovely little inn where you can rest, relax and get murdered.Oh, didn't I tell you? They host a murder mystery. Jeez, we wouldn't mix a murder up with this quaint little inn!But there is a mummy. Oh. And a ghost that just wan

Are you ready to have some fun? We're digging into two stories that you are going to be so intrigued by. We're talking less terrifying and more interesting this week.And disclaimer. There's no grossness this time around.You're welcome!This week, Erin's taking on Hollywood. Ever watched the movie, The Conjuring? Did you know it was based on a true story? But as per usual, the Hollywood version is even less scary than the reality of this haunted tale. Because while the movie DID accurately portray one poltergeist in this Rhode Island farmhouse, it totally forgot about all the other entities. Oh. And the fact that the house also serves as a portal of sorts. Want to spend a weekend there?We're taking it back to a forgotten time with Kirsten. Join us as she shares the story of Lake Shawnee Amusement Park in beautiful West Virginia. What, you haven't heard of it? No surprise since this park has been closed for years.Well, to the living, at least. Ghosts are still riding the rides and running through the d

It's almost time for summer vacation around Girls & Ghouls headquarters. Which means it's time for a ghostly vacation for your mind in this week's episode. That's right, we're headed around the world in an hour.We'll start in California aboard the incredible boat, the Queen Mary. Kirsten shares about this top class vacation ship turned battle ship and friends... the history is unbelievable. You'll almost forget that while this ship was bathed in luxury and is as popular as ever today... it's also occupying some guests that have never left. Including one that simply growls in your ear as you walk by. Don't worry, though! You can also find women waiting for the pools and dancing in the salon.The problem isn't the people. It's knowing which of them are alive. And which are dead.Once we're done on the Queen Mary, we're headed to Italy. Don't get too cozy, though, because we're skipping the vineyards. We're skipping the gondolas. We're not even stopping in Venice. Instead, we're headed to Poveglia Island.

Get ready to feel all the feels in this weeks episode. We're digging into some crazy stories on opposite ends of the emotional spectrum. And FYI, this episode is NOT for the faint of heart or children. Just saying.We're journeying back to New Orleans for a terrifying encounter with another home in the French District. And to make it even worse, it's a home that American Horror Story's Coven Season is based on. We're headed to the LaLaurie Mansion that was inhabited by one of the most notorious female serial killers, Delphine LaLaurie. This home was one that was full of death, despair, and tragedy, caused by an inhumane and evil woman. After the building was destroyed and subsequently repaired, there were some spirits unsettled that are quite accustomed to making themselves known. Even if it means calling your cell phone.Don't worry. We're bouncing right back from that tale of despair by heading to none other than the happiest place on Earth. That's right! We're going to Disneyland, folks! Kirsten is changing

There aren't many things scarier than a ghost. Except maybe a ghost that's out to get what was rightfully his and taken from him.This week's podcast is nothing but terror from both Kirsten and Erin. But as I write this, I'm realizing... Kirsten's story is nothing short of absolutely gruesome.Journey to the often spooky New Orleans with Kirsten to the mansion that has been dubbed the Sultans Palace. This incredible piece of architecture was the star of the street in its day but when it was occupied by a Turkish Sultan, things went downhill. Quickly. This story ends with a house full of blood, a hand in the yard and a city too terrified to even utter the occurrences that happened in this dwelling. And let's be clear. The Sultan isn't very happy either. And he's not shy about letting everyone know... Once we're done in Lousiana, we're coming back north for a trip to Baltimore, Maryland. In fact, we're going to be chatting about the hotel that Erin tried desperately to get Kirsten to visit when they las
