  • Saucer Full of Secrets - Castle of Spirits UFO Special (Part 2)

    Saucer Full of Secrets - Castle of Spirits UFO Special (Part 2)
    Dec 8 2025

    What if there's more to the UFO phenomenon than little green men? What if humanity has yet to grasp what it really means? In this episode, we peel back the familiar alien narrative to uncover stranger possibilities—psychological twists, folkloric echoes, and theories that feel more like riddles than answers. Along the way, we tell the story of the extraordinary national UFO wave of 1896–1897, when reports of mysterious airships made headlines from coast to coast and left the nation buzzing about strange visitors from outer space.

  • Beam Me Up! - Castle of Spirits UFO Special (Part 1)

    Beam Me Up! - Castle of Spirits UFO Special (Part 1)
    Nov 24 2025

    Cemeteries may be prime real estate for ghosts, but as Ghostkeeper Vince found out, they’re also great for sighting UFOs. During an early morning walk with Freya the Castle hellhound, Vince filmed something unidentified moving across the sky—no, not a frisbee, not a drone, and definitely not a runaway lawn flamingo. We roll the tape, hear Vince’s story, and kick around possibilities both ordinary and otherworldly.

    We also dust off the legendary Travis Walton abduction case and share a jaw‑dropping tidbit from one of Walton’s relatives that UFO enthusiasts will absolutely want to hear. Add in a couple of eerie UFO stories from the Castle archive, and you’ve got yourself a paranormal picnic of the third kind.

    And because one episode isn’t enough for all this extraterrestrial chaos, we’ll be back next week with Part 2 of our UFO deep‑dive. Subscribe to the Castle of Spirits Podcast on Apple Podcasts and Spotify, and beam yourself over to our official YouTube channel for video highlights and more haunted hijinks.
