Encounters x291 - Urban Legends Experienced in Real Life

As you go in search of the spookiest haunted houses and mazes this fall season, we caution you to be ware of one in specific. Should The No End House be in your area… you should NOT go in. This Urban legend/Creepy Pasta was originally uploaded on June 30, 2011 and is credited to Brian Russell .  Is $500 dollars worth a life of endless torture, unknowns and mind F**ks? We'd say not. But as the story goes, there's a house that appears in odd locations all over the world. When it appears or why it appears is not known and the only way to find it is stumbling upon it or being told by a friend. That's what happened to David. His college friend, Peter Terry sent him an ominous message on AIM, after being MIA for days. At first David thought Peter was back on drugs, as he'd battled with addiction for quite some time... but then, David decided to check the house out for himself. He should have trusted his instincts and never entered the benign looking house in the middle of the woods because the NINE ROOMS he endured would forever torture him and change the course of his life there on. The No End House is believed to have nine rooms and the story goes that NO ONE has ever completed all nine rooms... if you do, you receive a reward of a measly $500. This episode details Davids experience as he took on each room and the horrors that each room contained. Would you try to find the No End House? Watch the Video Version on YouTube. In addition to this haunted house of horrors, Corinne recounts her experience of the April 9th, 2024 Total Solar Eclipse.

Divination practices have been around since the beginning of humankind and have served as methods to guide us to our higher purposes, connect with spirit, guide us through difficult times and to strengthen our own inner resolve. If you are like us, and you too are beginning your journey into the occult as a baby witch and want to learn and enrich your own practice, this episode might help. While there are many different methods of divination, this episode focuses on Tarot and Oracle Cards/Readings. We'll admit, we didn't know the differences for a long time... but it's never too late to learn. We'll dig into the history of Tarot, the origins, the conspiracy and the evolution to what we know it as today. At inception, tarot cards had absolutely nothing to do with the paranormal or divination... they were instead, a game. Playing cards! Each deck was hand painted and owning a deck symbolized your high status. So how then, did they become a part of divination practice? A conspiracy theory! A frenchman named Antoine Court-de Jabolais linked Tarot cards to the Lost Book of Toth... an ancient Egyptian God linked to wisdom, writing and magic. He theorized that the messages of the Lost Book to Toth were hidden in Tarot Cards. Simultaneously and unknowingly, a man in Paris, Jean-Baptiste Alliette was developing a deck of Tarot cards to utilize for the occult with themes related to the Book of Toth. All alligned with the rise of spiritualism, Tarot cards became common place in mystical and occult practices. While Tarot developed into a form of divination, Oracle has always served as such, but the cards themselves are much more new age than Tarot cards. The first set of Oracle cards were developed by a revered psychic in the early 19th century, Madame Lenormand. Oracle cards are deeply personal, an expression of self, of creativity and of spirit. They vary in imagery, number of cards, shape of cards and meanings. A Traditional set of Tarot Cards consists of 78 cards divided into two groups - the major arcana and the minor arcana. Oracle Cards on the otherhand, have no set number or meaning. Story begins at 00:07:20 We mentioned a couple of specific decks in this episode, they are listed and linked below: Claire Goodchild's Decks Cat Tarot Southern Gothic Oracle Literary Authors Oracle Deck A great source to learn more about Tarot is the App Labryinthos DECK TO NOT BUY! - from listener story - The Occult Tarot (which we will not be linking) We highly recommend that you watch the Video Version on YOUTUBE - you get to see our faces and reactions, catch glimpses of Leia and the photos we reference throughout the episode!

Encounters are always filled with surprises, but this week brings a surprise you might not see coming... Tweedle Dee & Tweedle Dum. You'll find yourself laughing one second, and cringing in terror the next. Imagine a floating Cheshire-like, teethy, horrifying smile haunting you and your roommates. Imagine falling into an ominous pit used for dark sacrifices in the deepest of the woods. Imagine a ghost watching TV with you and being visited by aliens. Not everyone has to imagine, because some of you have experienced these encounters yourselves. This episode is a reminder not to use a ouija board and will tug at your heartstrings and make you want to stop at that random restaurant on the side of the road when your sister randomly suggests it.

Beware of scams… and beware of haunted objects, ESPECIALLY the objects discussed in this episode. Greg and Dana Newkirk are the world's only full-time paranormal investigators. They have spent their lives collecting and caring for cursed artifacts, possessed dolls, and other mysterious artifacts believed to exhibit supernatural activity. They also joined Two Girls One Ghost on their first ever paranormal investigation at The Conjuring House and have become our paranormal idols. We chose a couple items from their haunted collection to share with you in this episode... but something DID NOT want to be talked about and so, we must warn you: THIS EPISODE MIGHT HAUNT YOU because it haunted us. The following are the haunted items from Greg & Dana's collection that we speak about... or attempt to: The Well of Intentions, The Little Liar Painting, Smiley the Clown, The Corrupted Testament, The Black Hen Planchette and the Conjuring Crystal. Check out the Newkirk's LIVE ON TOUR from September 11th through November 1st: In this incredible live show, join the Newkirks on a journey through the history, folklore, and true-life accounts of supernatural encounters with objects that seem to possess a life of their own. You’ll learn the untold truth about famous paranormal cases like The Amityville Horror, discover why the infamous Dybbuk Box is scarier than the demon it's rumored to imprison, and tag along as Greg & Dana reveal how they broke the curse of the Catskills Crone, as featured in their haunting new documentary film The Unbinding! But this show isn’t just about sharing terrifying true stories. You’ll also come face-to-face with iconic haunted artifacts from the archives of the Newkirk Museum of the Paranormal, using what you’ve learned about ghosts to help Greg and Dana manifest two new, eerily familiar spirits.. with nothing but the power of your mind. https://www.newkirktour.com/ @pals_animal_life_savers https://www.facebook.com/palscats/ https://palscats.org/ Have ghost stories of your own?

We've all heard of the Salem Witch Trials, the deadliest witchhunt in colonial North America... but few have heard of the Witch Trials of Winnsboro, South Carolina. It was 1792, exactly 100 years after the Salem Witch Trials, and something mysterious and malicious was brewing down South. Cows were dying, people were levitating and others were being transformed into animals without their consent. The townspeople of Winnsboro, South Carolina, was certain that their small farming community was being destroyed by a WITCH. 77 year-old Mary Ingleman was the first to be accused... by her very own son. What then followed was numerous other accusations and a horrific trial held illegally by the townspeople at the farm of Thomas Hill. What ensued was a horrific example of falsely accused witches and wrongful convictions and treatment of innocent souls. But it did leave us wondering... is the devil hot? Like, he for sure has chiseled abs and somehow always appears to be doused in baby oil, right? Have ghost stories of your own?

Content warning: abuse and suicidal ideation. Hauntings are unpredictable. Hauntings are like sticking your hand into a mysterious box that you've found on the side of the road while blindfolded and wearing noise cancelling headphones. Hauntings are like a box of chocolate that has been sitting in the sun and exposed to earthly creatures and elements. Some hauntings are delightful and pleasant. Some, scary and unpleasant. This episode is simultaneously terrifying, hopeful, nightmare inducing and sweet.  From a Haunted Alpaca Farm, to a Goblin in the backseat of a car, to rambunctious Ghost children who lived in a funeral home, to horse farms and so much more.  Why stop there? While we adore reading listener stories, we also love throwing ourselves into the wild and experiencing hauntings first hand... so in this episode, we share with you a portion from Sabrina's Youtube Livestream, a conversation with the spirits of Marblehead's Old Burial Hill Cemetery... and the ghosts were ACTIVE.
