Long before pumpkins lit American porches, eerie turnips glowed across Irish hillsides, carved to ward off spirits during Samhain and inspired by the legend of Stingy Jack, the trickster doomed to wander the Earth with a single ember from Hell. As Irish immigrants brought the tradition to America, they found the pumpkin—larger, softer, and perfectly suited for carving—and the Jack-O’-Lantern was reborn. Over centuries, this symbol of fear transformed into one of community, harvest, and Halloween cheer, its flickering light carrying echoes of ancient superstition beneath its modern smile. Even today, every glowing pumpkin honors the ghostly traveler whose cursed light first shone across the Irish bogs.Episode Sources:https://www.theirishjewelrycompany.com/blog/post/the-origins-and-superstitions-of-the-jack-olantern-in-irish-tradition?gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=13177453168&gbraid=0AAAAAD9dF0mxHMnpTkHjaDqZNwOlvaWc1&gclid=CjwKCAjw3tzHBhBREiwAlMJoUorOXiOPP3Ebu1fiUbtICkUZNt5MP6biSNMrQ6xyD1ZsVws4SF5iyxoCKFAQAvD_BwEhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack-o%27-lanternhttps://www.history.com/articles/history-of-the-jack-o-lantern-irish-originshttps://carnegiemnh.org/the-jack-o-lanterns-origins/https://www.npr.org/2025/10/17/nx-s1-5576485/from-folklore-to-your-front-porch-the-history-of-the-jack-o-lantern

Step inside Manresa Castle in Port Townsend, Washington—a place where history and hauntings blur together. Built in 1892 by Charles Eisenbeis, the town’s first mayor, the castle has lived many lives: a grand family home, a Jesuit monastery, and now a hotel. Along the way, it has gathered stories of lingering spirits: a grieving woman said to have leapt from Room 306, a monk whose footsteps echo in the attic above Room 302, and even playful presences tugging at shoes or turning glasses upside down. Blending Port Townsend’s colorful boomtown past with chilling firsthand encounters, this episode wanders through foggy streets, creaking corridors, and candlelit legends to ask—who still calls the castle home when the lights go out?Manresa Castle:https://www.manresacastle.com/Episode Sources:https://www.historylink.org/file/10752https://www.seattlepi.com/local/seattle-history/article/Historic-Port-Townsend-Puget-Sound-haunted-ghost-10936187.phphttps://theshockingtruestoryofmonsteragogo.wordpress.com/2022/10/11/a-night-in-the-haunted-manresa-castle-hotel/https://hauntedhouses.com/washington/manresa-castle/https://www.hauntedrooms.com/washington/haunted-places/haunted-hotels/manresa-castlehttps://olympicpeninsulaparanormalsociety.com/manresa_castle.htmhttps://www.atlasobscura.com/places/manresa-castle-port-townsendhttps://www.wahauntedhouses.com/real-haunt/manresa-castle.html

In this episode, we explore some of the Pacific Northwest’s smallest and most remarkable landmarks. From Portland’s Mill Ends Park—the world’s smallest park, famously home to a colony of leprechauns—to Washington’s Ranald MacDonald’s Grave State Park Heritage Site, a humble plot of land honoring the first English teacher in Japan, and Oregon’s Cape Meares Lighthouse, the shortest lighthouse on the Oregon coast, yet rich in history and innovation.Though these sites may be small in size, each carries a deep cultural, historical, or whimsical significance. Join us as we uncover the stories behind these tiny spaces, the people who shaped them, and the ways they continue to capture the imagination and pride of the Pacific Northwest.Episode Sources:https://stateparks.oregon.gov/index.cfm?do=park.profile&parkId=131https://friendsofcapemeareslighthouse.com/historyhttps://www.oregonencyclopedia.org/articles/cape-meares-lighthouse/https://www.onlyinyourstate.com/nature/washington/smallest-state-park-wahttps://www.portland.gov/parks/mill-ends-park#:~:text=The%20smallest%20park%20in%20the,Parkway%20in%20downtown%20Portland%2C%20Oregon.https://www.travelportland.com/attractions/mill-ends-park/
