December 29, 1972. A routine flight becomes an unspeakable tragedy when Eastern Airlines Flight 401 crashes into the Florida Everglades. Ninety-six souls perish in the dark swampland, their final moments a desperate struggle against fire, water, and alligators.

But for some of the crew, death wasn't the end of their duties.

Weeks later, Captain Bob Loft and Flight Engineer Don Repo began appearing on other Eastern Airlines aircraft, warning crews of danger, completing pre-flight checks, and even materializing in overhead bins. The airline attempted to silence the stories, stripping parts from haunted planes in a desperate bid to exorcise the spirits.

From the swamps of the Everglades to 30,000 feet in the air, this is one of the most meticulously documented cases of aviation hauntings in history. A story where grief, duty, and the paranormal collide at cruising altitude.

Listen now to discover why the ghosts of Flight 401 refused to stay grounded, and what still stirs in the skies above.

They were the most famous ghost hunters in the world. A husband and wife who claimed to battle demons, investigate possessions, and protect families from the darkness beyond. But every haunting has two sides.

In this special episode, we peel back the legend to uncover who Ed and Lorraine Warren really were. From their humble beginnings to their most infamous cases, we explore the uneasy space where faith, fame, and fear collide. Were they true seekers of the unknown, or storytellers who blurred the line between truth and performance until even they could not tell the difference?

From Amityville to Annabelle to the Enfield Poltergeist, discover how the Warrens turned the paranormal into pop culture and left behind a mystery that refuses to die.

In 1794, a stranger died in a farmhouse on the edge of the Virginia frontier. What followed became one of the most chilling, bizarre, and well-documented hauntings in early America.

Phantom horses galloped through the night. Objects flew across rooms. Fires sparked without cause. Clothing was clipped by unseen scissors into crescents, sometimes while still being worn. And then the voice arrived.

The Wizard Clip haunting was investigated in real time by clergy, skeptics, and even a Russian prince who had become a Catholic priest. Letters, court records, and land deeds remain. But the most important evidence vanished.

In this gripping episode, we unravel a supernatural mystery that changed lives, sparked conversions, and still defies explanation more than two centuries later.

Was it fraud, faith, or something far stranger?

Most shipwrecks leave behind ghosts. This one left behind something stranger.

In 1912, the Mayflower, a wooden steamer built for the quiet lakes of eastern Ontario, set out on one final trip before winter. Aboard were a small crew, nine passengers, and a coffin carrying the body of a young man named Herman Brown, on his way home to be buried.

As a sudden snowstorm swept across Lake Kamaniskeg, the Mayflower vanished beneath the water in under a minute. Nine lives were lost. Three men survived…by clinging to the coffin.

In this episode, we retrace the events of that harrowing night. How a trusted vessel became a death trap. How an elderly woman gave away her only life jacket so someone younger might live. How three Ottawa salesmen drifted for hours through freezing darkness.

This is a true story of loss, sacrifice, and impossible survival.

Deep in the wilderness of northwestern Ontario, where the forest swallows sound and the lakes stretch toward the horizon, stands a log castle. Not the ruin of a forgotten community, or the relic of a wealthy eccentric. This towering mansion of timber was built by one man. Working alone.

In this episode, we journey to White Otter Lake and step inside the haunting legacy of Jimmy McOuat. A man driven by a childhood curse, a lifelong loneliness, and a defiant dream to prove the world wrong. His creation, White Otter Castle, is part marvel and part mystery. Three stories tall, built by hand, it stands as a monument to obsession, resilience, and the heavy silence of solitude.

Yet the castle did not free him. Jimmy's mysterious death left unanswered questions, and for over a century, travellers to White Otter Lake have whispered of strange encounters, eerie sounds, and the lingering presence of its solitary builder.

Join us as we step into the wilds of northern Ontario and uncover the chilling legend of White Otter Castle.

At 9:04 a.m., Halifax was torn apart in an instant. One moment it was a thriving wartime city, the next, it was fire, thunder, and ruin. A fireball as hot as the surface of the sun ignited the harbour. Shockwaves ripped through homes and streets. A wall of water followed, drowning what the flames had spared.

In this second part of our two-part series, we return to the stories of Francis Mackey, Vincent Coleman, and Kaye Chapman as we explore the devastation that unfolded in the hours and days after the blast. Entire neighbourhoods vanished. Families were torn apart. The city would never be the same.

The scars of the Halifax Explosion were not only etched into people, buildings, and the landscape. Something less tangible was also left behind. For over a century, ghost stories have circulated through the city, many tied directly to that morning. At St. Paul's, a shattered window still carries the outline of a figure who looked toward the harbour at the fatal moment. At the Five Fishermen Restaurant, once a morgue overwhelmed with the dead, staff still hear voices and see a bearded man vanish into thin air. These hauntings are part of Halifax's inheritance. The spirits of December 6, 1917 linger, a spectral imprint of a tragedy that reshaped the city forever.

Step into the ruins, hear stories of survival, and of those that still linger.

On a crisp December morning in 1917, Halifax woke to calm skies and the quiet hum of a wartime city at work. Children hurried to school. Workers streamed into factories. Families went about their routines.

Out in the harbour, two ships moved slowly toward one another. One carried deadly cargo, volatile enough to erase a city. When they collided, a fuse was lit. At 9:04 a.m., Halifax was ripped apart in a wave of fire, force, and sound.

In this first part of our two-part series, we walk alongside the people who lived those ordinary minutes before disaster: the harbour pilot steering a ship of fire, the dispatcher tapping out his last warning, and the young girl whose small choice meant survival.
