Summary

What happens when two fearless women take their passion for the paranormal and turn it into a mission to educate, thrill, and maybe even terrify—just a little? In this episode of The Grave Talks, we delve into the haunted world of Kayla Simonton and Beth Fontaine, founders of Eerie Excursions. With over 15 years of ghost-chasing experience, they don’t just lead tours—they open gateways to the unknown.

From spine-chilling investigations at Ohio’s famously haunted Poasttown Elementary to immersive adventures that peel back the veil between the living and the dead, Kayla and Beth guide people into some of the most paranormally active locations in the Midwest. Their tours aren't just about ghost stories - it’s an invitation to embrace the eerie... if you dare. Today on the Grave Talks, a conversation with Kayla Simonton and Beth Fontaine of Eerie Excursions. This is Part Two of our conversation.

Today on The Grave Talks, part two of embracing the Erie, a conversation with Kayla Simonton and Beth Fontaine of Erie excursions.

0:09.9

And this could be a question for both of you, but I'll start with Beth.

0:13.5

At a place like that, with it being a school, and I've heard on our other show, real ghost stories,

0:19.9

so many stories over the years about haunted schools and things that happen in a school.

0:25.1

What is it about a school setting?

0:27.5

You think that that lends itself to being haunted or having spirits there? Because it's like when you think about it, maybe did anybody

0:42.2

die there? Or what is it? Or is it that you're drawn back to a place where you were happy in your

0:47.7

life? What do you think? So that's definitely something that we believe. So there was never anyone that passed away in the school itself at Post Town.

0:57.8

There was a train accident that occurred behind the school and the land was used for a like a triage because there were no hospitals.

1:06.3

So we do know some of those people are there, but we also have, like you said, several children, several adults.

1:31.3

And that makes sense to me because I think especially someone who worked there like a teacher or even a janitor, because that was their identity.

1:41.9

Right.

1:42.9

What do you think, Kayla, after spending time at that location?

1:47.4

I definitely agree to what Beth was saying. And I think, like, a common question after us being there for

1:54.6

years that we get is, don't you guys ever get sick of going back to the same place all the time?

2:00.8

And I'm like,
