Summary

Off the coast of Maine lies a bleak, windswept rock known as Boon Island. For centuries, sailors have washed ashore here only to face madness, starvation, and the unthinkable. Desperate acts of cannibalism, whispers of spectral figures, and the lonely shadow of its lighthouse keeper’s ghost make Boon Island’s history as chilling as the Atlantic waters that surround it. In this episode, we dive into tales of survival gone horribly wrong, the tragic love story of a lighthouse keeper’s wife who may still haunt the rocky shores, and eerie encounters that make mariners swear the island is alive with restless spirits. Join us as we uncover its cursed legacy of cannibals, curses, and one heartbreakingly heroic lady in white. Watch the video version here. Have ghost stories of your own? E-mail them to us at [email protected] New Episodes are released every Thursday and Sunday at 12am PST/3am EST (the witching hour, of course). Corinne and Sabrina hand select a couple of paranormal encounters from our inbox to read in each episode, from demons, to cryptids, to aliens, to creepy kids... the list goes on and on. If you have a story of your own that you'd like us to share on an upcoming episode, we invite you to email them to us!
