    163: Organized Jellyfish in Egg Haba
    Feb 19 2026
    Recapping The Dead Files “Betrayed” (Season 2 Episode 13) which aired April 5, 2013 We talk mental health threads (this officially completes Amy’s accidental Three-Fer), basement dread, and why being six feet tall does not automatically make you immune to fear. Fred earns MVP Dad status, and we unpack how terrifying it must be to feel like you can’t protect your own kids from something you can’t see. It’s heavy… but it’s also Egg Haba, so we manage to spiral appropriately. Ponder: can ghosts have dementia?Witness: Megan having troubles saying New Jersey in a New Jersey accent.Weigh-In: Do you love Deviled Eggs as much as we do?So, grab your deviled eggs, and join us where… The Activity Continues. Content Warning:Discussion of suicide (historical), childhood illness, while Amy and Steve's swears are bleeped on TV, ours are not.

  • 162: Fifty Bad Dead People…in the Middle of Nowhere

    162: Fifty Bad Dead People…in the Middle of Nowhere
    Feb 5 2026

    Recapping The Dead Files “Satan’s Revenge” (Season 4 Episode 5) which aired August 9, 2014.

    In this episode of The Activity Continues, we dig into one of the most intense episodes of The Dead Files yet. This was a listener request from long-time supporter, Zoey! Thank you Zoey!

    Steve and Amy travel to rural Michigan to help a family whose dream home has become a waking nightmare. What begins as reports of footsteps, shadow figures, and unexplained injuries quickly escalates into something far darker. The basement of this home appears to be holding dozens of hostile, negative entities, including a powerful shadow figure with violent intentions.

    As the investigation unfolds, we talk about:

    · A terrifying concentration of negative spirits in one location

    · Physical injuries, scratches, and life-altering accidents

    · Trauma, PTSD, and how past abuse may intersect with paranormal experiences

    · The psychological vs. paranormal question (and where it breaks down)

    · Why doors, stairs, and basements are never just architectural features on The Dead Files

    · Also don’t forget the side quests: Minnesota weather, headaches, and sleep socks (yes or no?)

    It’s disturbing. It’s emotional. And it raises one big question:

    How the hell do you end up with fifty bad dead people in your basement?

    So, grab your footie jammies, and join us where… The Activity Continues.

    161: Am I Crazy? Or Is This a Cover-Up?
    Jan 22 2026
    Recapping The Dead Files “Am I Crazy?” (Season 1 Episode 6) which aired 2011. This week, we kick off Season 7 by revisiting “Am I Crazy?”, a case that asks a familiar question with an uncomfortable twist: is the homeowner losing her grip on reality, or uncovering a long-buried truth no one wanted exposed?In Great Falls, Montana, Kelly believes she’s being contacted by the spirit of Valeria Gibson, a woman erased from the historical record and dismissed in death as “hysterical.”Through dreams, intuition, and a growing pile of unsettling clues, Kelly uncovers a story that doesn’t match the official version, and medium Amy Allan corroborates that story.As Steve Dischiavi digs for missing blueprints, vanished records, and suspicious inconsistencies, a pattern emerges: when women tell the truth, history has a habit of calling them unstable. But three women—Valeria, Kelly, and Amy—tell the same story across time.She’s not crazy. She’s just not being believed.So… is this a haunting? A cover-up? Or both?So, grab your Nespresso, and join us where… The Activity Continues. Content Warning:We didn’t find anything we thought deserved a content warning, but we will use colorful language. I don’t see that changing.
