Summary
Most high school ghost hunts end with screams, laughter, and late-night coffee—but rarely with something truly paranormal.
For Nolan Emerson, one of those adrenaline-fueled nights turned into something far more chilling: a real encounter with the unexplained. That experience left a mark on him and ultimately shaped his future.
What started as a teenage thrill-seeking adventure became a lifelong passion for paranormal investigation, taking Nolan from abandoned spots to some of the most infamous haunted locations in the world — including the Conjuring House.
In this episode of The Grave Talks, Nolan shares the story of that first encounter, the moment he realized ghosts were more than just legend, and how it launched him into years of exploring famous and residential hauntings.
Join us as we trace Nolan Emerson’s journey from a curious teen on a dare to a seasoned investigator chasing answers in the shadows.

| 1:07.3 | Well, that's interesting because from an early age, I'd say probably around four or five, I always just gravitated towards the, you know, spooky, strange, dark stuff. |
| 1:20.5 | Like from four years old, five years old, I was watching Nightmare on Elm Street and Chuckie and scream and all these type of movies. |

| 2:19.1 | The piano at my grandpa's house would play by itself. |
| 2:23.1 | TVs would turn on and off. |
| 2:24.4 | And I remember one time specifically, me and my brother were outside on the street right in front of my grandpa's driveway, |
