IN THIS EPISODE: Are ghosts and shadow people the same thing? Author Jacob Shelton doesn’t think so – and gives us an in-depth essay behind his reasoning. (Ghosts And Shadows) *** In September, 1935, the Labor Day Hurricane obliterated the Florida Keys, killing hundreds. Even today, more than 83 years later, skeletal remains still continue to occasionally be found… as do some of their ghosts. (Ghosts Of The Labor Day Hurricane) *** Nathaniel Bar-Jonah was accused of murdering a child. Soon, his neighbors remembered the strange meat he'd given them years before. (Child Killer and Cannibal) *** Was the notorious Dr Crippen, convicted and executed in 1910 for the murder of his wife Cora, actually innocent? (Dr. Crippen and the Chamber of Murder and Horror) *** Two women decide to move into a flat together – but quickly find out they might have a paranormal third roommate they didn’t know about. (The Other Flatmate) *** In the wild frontier of the 1790s, Americans had much to be worried about. Drought, famine, being injured with no one there to get help for you, poisonous snakes, hungry wolves, even being scalped by bloodthirsty natives of the land. But nothing was so scary as… the Harpe brothers. You see, the Harpe brothers didn’t choose their victims – they simply killed anyone who got in their way, including women and children. (Two of the Outlaws of Cave-In Rock) *** “The Witch in My Dream” *** “The Old Hag” *** “The Aunt and the TV” *** “The Phone Call” *** “The Terrifying Vision of a Hanging Man” *** “The Tugging Ghost of Alabama” *** “The Return of the Living Dead” *** “The Sinister Dark Shadows That Haunt My Life” *** “A Thrill From Contacting The Dead” *** "Haunted Road" *** "Greenville’s Haunted Herdklotz Park" *** "Kitchen Poltergeist" *** "Lifted Off His Feet" *** "The Strange Tale of the Italian Bride - The Haunting Story of Julia Buccola Petta" *** "Castle of the White Lady"
