Summary
Missouri is steeped in paranormal history, from the ghost of Jesse James and his brother Frank to the eerie halls of Lemp Mansion in St. Louis. Beyond ghosts, the state is also home to sightings of Shadow People, UFOs, and the mysterious legend of Jim the Wonder Dog. Our guest, Jason Offutt, has spent years uncovering Missouri’s supernatural side. Having grown up in a haunted farmhouse himself, he has written extensively about ghostly encounters and unexplained phenomena in the region. In this episode, we dive deep into Missouri’s haunted history and explore the legends that continue to intrigue and terrify. This is Part Two of our conversation.
