  • Clontarf Castle Ghosts & the Irishness of Dracula
    Feb 8 2025
    Talking Strange is on the road in Ireland, with host Aaron Sagers collecting history, spooky stories, and folklore along the way. This episode, he's staying at the Clontarf Castle Hotel and connects with historian, author, and storyteller Dennis McIntyre. The modernised hotel has a castle structure dating back to 1837, and there has been a castle on the site since 1172. Clontarf Castle is also near the site of the epic 11th Century Battle of Clontarf, and near the site of the assassination of the First High King of Ireland Brian Baru. The area is also where Dracula author Bram Stoker lived for the first several years of his life. McIntyre — who runs guided tours with Dublin North Bay Tourism, and is the author of Bram Stoker and the Irishness of Dracula — tells us of the ghosts of the castle, as well as the "Ghost Room" where he grew up, and then shares his thoughts as to why Dracula deserves more attention for its Irish connections. Then, Aaron shares some of the ghost stories her learned from his own stay at the Clontarf Castle Hotel — but nothing too terrifying that it should prevent you from staying in, considering it's quite lovely luxurious and the only castle you can sleep in near Dublin.

  • AI Aliens with Dimitri Coats
    Dec 5 2024
    Musician and filmmaker Dimitri Coats — guitarist for the punk supergroup OFF! and frontman for Burning Brides — joins host Aaron Sagers to discuss his punk rock sci-fi comedy feature film Free LSD, which he wrote, directed and stars in, as well as his own paradigm shifting experience with potential extraterrestrials. Receiving comparisons to Repo Man, Free LSD also stars OFF! singer Keith Morris (from the bands Black Flag and Circle Jerks) in the lead role, and other musicians David Yow (The Jesus Lizard) Autry Fulbright (And You Will Know Us By The Trail of Dead), DH Peligro (Dead Kennedys), as well as Jack Black, Dana Gould, Chelsea Debo, Chloe Dykstra, James Duval, Barry Del Sherman, Chris D., E.R. Ruiz, Gill Gayle, Davey Havok, and S.A. Griffin. MORE ABOUT FREE LSD Keith, an elderly sex shop owner, falls for a younger woman who visits his store looking for a gift. When their relationship turns physical, Keith's failure to perform leads him to a strange erectile dysfunction doctor who offers hope in the form of an experimental drug. The experience gives Keith much more than renewed manhood. It also provides a glimpse into a parallel universe where he is not only the singer of the band OFF!, but also the target of an advanced AI species that will stop at nothing to prevent the group from making a new album, which holds the key to an awakening of human consciousness. _______________________________________________________________ Talking Strange Paranormal Show with Aaron Sagers is a weekly paranormal pop culture podcast featuring celebrity and author interviews, as well as learned experts in all things strange and unexplained.
