Summary

We're talking all about the haunted Sloss Furnaces in Birmingham, Alabama, which are host to a confusing cast of ghosts...is their main bad guy even historically real, or just made up for their haunted house attraction? We look at the history and the seasonal spooky offerings they have there now! This episode is a tie-in with our other podcast, Ghost Adventures Adventures, where the most recent episode has Zak Bagans and crew hitting up the Furnaces themselves.
