  • Pulled by the Unseen: Maramec to Yeater Hall
    Dec 14 2025
    At fourteen, I was sent to a Missouri residential facility meant to “fix” me. But on a trip to Maramec Spring Park’s nearly forgotten 19th‑century cemetery, something far stranger happened—an irresistible pull from nameless graves that refused to let me go.

    Was it the spark of empathic abilities, a hidden tie to an ancestor at the old ironworks, or something else reaching across time?

    From there, we'll shift to a website listing about Warrensburg’s Yeater Hall at the University of Central Missouri, where the loyal spirit of Laura J. Yeater is said to still guard her beloved women’s dormitory. Cold spots, shadow figures, knocks from a padlocked third floor, and men feeling distinctly unwelcome all mark this haunting legacy—one now shadowed by the looming threat of demolition in 2026–2027.

  • Coasters, Coincidences, and Curses
    Sep 29 2025
    Amusement parks are a place of magic, of pure joy and reckless abandon. But what happens when the thrill rides hold a darker secret? From a childhood encounter that I managed to survive to a chilling premonition about a famous roller coaster, this episode delves into my family's history of uncanny experiences at fairgrounds and theme parks.

    Join me as we explore how these seemingly random mishaps began to reveal a startling connection to a sixth sense, and why a tragic accident that made national news wasn't a random event, but something I knew was coming all along.
