Summary

Poltergeist burritos, haunted pants, divine toast, and a skeleton named Orge — it’s another delightfully deranged Inbox of Oddities! From Tucson to Milwaukee, the Freak Family shares spine-tingling tales and wonderfully weird coincidences. One listener’s burrito unrolls itself in a supernatural act of culinary shame, and another’s Alexa picks fights with vintage corduroys. There’s also a toast that channels either Jesus or Kenny Loggins (jury’s still out), battery-free toys that come to life, and a heartwarming letter from a medium who first saw a ghost in bright blue coveralls at age ten. Plus, we learn about Kat’s evolving Chambord cocktails, Brian’s possibly undead venison, and a listener’s lifelong confusion about the Poconos being tropical. It’s proof that the Freak Family never disappoints — from supernatural snacks to spectral fashion choices, this Inbox is packed with laughter, goosebumps, and glorious absurdity. This Box contains the following ingredients: paranormal stories, listener submissions, Box of Oddities podcast, ghost encounters, funny paranormal podcast, spooky listener stories, BOO effect, haunted objects, and weird coincidences.
