  • 13. The Story of the Fox | Grief & The Paranormal
    Dec 24 2024

    As we continue exploring the hauntings of New England, I wanted to take a step back to tell you about an experience I had in Salem a few years ago. An experience that truly changed my life, and has been a reference point in my journey with spirituality, the paranormal, and grief. This is the first episode where I'm going totally off script -- I wanted to just talk. And what ended up happening is I talked a lot about grief and how being an investigator has helped me in grieving the loss of my mom.

Its entire roof is a Ouija Board, it is home to the largest Tarot Card, and it is full of haunted objects.
