A haunted house. A terrified family. And police officers who said they witnessed objects moving inside the home. In 1974, strange things began happening at a family home in Bridgeport, Connecticut. Furniture moved on its own, objects flew across rooms, and police officers were called in to investigate. Then the family's young daughter became the center of the mystery. Was she responsible for what was happening inside the house? Was everything a hoax? Or did the police witness something that couldn't be explained? The Bridgeport Poltergeist became one of Connecticut's most notorious paranormal cases, attracting police, firefighters, reporters, clergy, paranormal investigators, and crowds of curious onlookers. This Halloween, Inherited Hauntings takes you inside 966 Lindley Street to uncover what really happened in one of America's strangest alleged poltergeist cases.

A UFO in the sky. Strange creatures outside the windows. And a Kentucky farmhouse under siege. On a hot August night in 1955, eleven people reported encountering small, strange beings around a farmhouse near Kelly and Hopkinsville, Kentucky. They watched the creatures approach, grabbed their guns, and fired. But the frightening encounter didn't end there. Were they facing visitors from another world, mysterious animals in the darkness, or something no one could explain? This Halloween, join Inherited Hauntings as we revisit one of America's most bizarre and debated UFO encounters. The witnesses had a story to tell, investigators took notice, and nearly seven decades later, the Kentucky goblins remain a legendary paranormal mystery.

Twenty years before the Salem witch trials, something terrifying was happening in Lindsey's hometown.  In 1671, 16 year-old Elizabeth Knapp began suffering violent fits, claiming she'd encountered the Devil. Then something even stranger happened: a voice seemed to speak through her while her lips remained still.  Was Elizabeth Knapp possessed? Was there another explanation for what happened to her? Or were the people around her witnessing something they simply couldn't understand? This Halloween, we're going back to Groton, Massachusetts, to uncover the strange story of Elizabeth Knapp, one of the earliest and well documented alleged cases of demonic possession in America. 🎙️ Love creepy history?

Lindsey and Nancy are opening the case files on 112 Ocean Avenue to uncover the chilling reality behind The Amityville Horror. In December 1975, George and Kathleen Lutz moved into their dream home. Just 28 days later, they fled in absolute terror. They claimed to be plagued by demonic possessions, terrifying apparitions, and waking up every night at 3:15 AM—the exact time a brutal true crime nightmare had occurred in the house just one year prior. But what actually happened during those 28 days of terror? From the dark history of the DeFeo family to the shadowy figures caught on camera by paranormal investigators, we break down the evidence that Hollywood left out. Was it a genuine portal to hell, or a brilliant financial scam cooked up over a bottle of wine? The truth is far more complicated, and sinister, than you think. Turn off the lights, lock your doors, and press play to find out what really happened inside America’s most infamous haunted house. Hit Subscribe or Follow on Apple Podcasts to never miss a scare!

In 1952, a group of terrified West Virginia witnesses said they saw something that looked like it came from another world. After a strange object appeared over Flatwoods, several people climbed a hill and reported encountering a bizarre figure with a glowing red face, strange body, and an unsettling way of moving. Was it an extraterrestrial creature, a terrifying misidentification, or something else entirely? We dig into the original accounts, the strange details, the skeptical explanations, and how a frightening night in a small Appalachian town became one of America's most famous UFO stories.

What if a hotel could remember everyone who ever stayed there? The Stanley Hotel in Colorado has welcomed guests since 1909, but some say not everyone ever checked out. In this episode, Lindsey and Nancy explore the history and reported hauntings of one of America's most famous haunted hotels. From mysterious footsteps and phantom piano music to Room 217 and the ghostly stories surrounding F.O. and Flora Stanley, we're separating the history from the legend. And then there's Stephen King. His stay at the nearly empty Stanley Hotel in 1974 inspired The Shining, forever connecting this grand Colorado hotel with one of the most famous horror stories ever written. But is the Stanley actually haunted? Or does something about an old hotel, filled with generations of memories, make us expect the ghosts to be there? Come check in with us. Just don't be surprised if something else checks in too.  Keep in Touch Facebook Instagram Share Your Ghost Story: [email protected] Merch  Enjoyed the episode?

The Lizzie Borden House is famous for one of America's most notorious unsolved murders, but what happened inside the house didn't end in 1892. In this episode, Lindsey and Nancy leave the murder mystery behind and explore the strange reports that have made the Borden home one of America's most infamous haunted locations. From unexplained footsteps and voices to eerie touches, apparitions, and unsettling experiences reported by visitors, we look at what people say they've encountered inside the house. And then Lindsey tells us about her own mysterious encounter at the Lizzie Borden House on Halloween—including something captured that neither of us could easily explain. Was it paranormal?

61 years ago this month, something very strange happened just outside of Exeter, New Hampshire. On September 3, 1965, 18 year old Norman Muscarello reported seeing a large object with brilliant red lights near a farm in Kensington NH. What makes the story especially interesting is that when Exeter police officers arrived to investigate, they reported seeing the object too. And now, 61 years later, Exeter is getting ready for its annual UFO Festival this weekend.  That made us think of an episode we did last year about the Incident at Exeter, so I thought I'd bring it back up for anyone who missed it, or anyone who's in the mood for a little UFO rabbit hole this weekend.  It's one of those cases where you can keep asking the same question: What exactly did they see that night? And if you're anywhere near Exeter this weekend, the UFO Festival is happening downtown Saturday and Sunday 9/5-9/6/26 with speakers, activities, historical presentations and trolley tours to the original incident site.

In 1984, a borrowed school computer in a quiet English cottage began receiving messages from a man who claimed to live in 1546… and later from someone in the year 2109. In this episode, Lindsey and Nancy dig into one of the strangest modern paranormal cases on record: the Dodleston Messages. A glowing “box of lights,” archaic English accusations of house-theft, a possible Tudor ghost named Thomas Harden, and cryptic communications from the future. Was it an elaborate hoax, a genuine time slip, or something even weirder?

We're re-releasing one of our favorite episodes, The Bell Witch, because during our recent episode on Gef the Talking Mongoose, we pointed out so many similarities between these two bizarre talking entities. If you enjoyed Gef's sarcastic personality, wait until you meet the Bell Witch. Join us as we revisit one of the most chilling and infamous paranormal legends in American history. We'll explore the terrifying experiences of the Bell family in early 1800s Tennessee, the mysterious entity that spoke, laughed, sang, and allegedly attacked members of the household, and the legend that future President Andrew Jackson visited the Bell farm to witness the strange events for himself, only to leave convinced that something beyond explanation was at work. Was the Bell Witch a vengeful spirit, an elaborate hoax, mass hysteria, or one of history's greatest unexplained mysteries? We mix the history with plenty of laughs, mother-daughter banter, and our own reactions to one of America's most enduring ghost stories. 👻 Have you experienced something you can't explain?

Imagine you're tucked into bed... and something in the walls starts talking back. This week, Nancy tells Lindsey one of the strangest, funniest, and most bizarre paranormal stories ever documented: Gef the Talking Mongoose. From the quiet Isle of Man comes a tale of a mysterious creature that claimed it could speak, sing songs, spy on the neighbors, insult visitors, and become a beloved member of the family. Was Gef a mischievous spirit, an unusually clever animal, an elaborate hoax, or something no one has ever been able to explain? We follow the remarkable timeline of the Irving family, the investigations that brought international attention to their tiny farmhouse, and the outrageous things Gef supposedly said and did. This episode is packed with unbelievable quotes, hilarious tangents, and one of the most entertaining cases in paranormal history. 👻 Have your own strange encounter?

Poveglia Island has been called the most haunted island on Earth... and after researching its history, it's not hard to see why. This week we're traveling to the abandoned island off of Venice, Italy, where tens of thousands of plague victims, a notorious psychiatric hospital, chilling ghost stories, and unexplained paranormal encounters have created one of the world's darkest legends. We also discuss Ghost Adventures' investigation of Poveglia, including Zak Bagans' unsettling (and funny) experience on the island, and separate documented history from enduring folklore. Could centuries of suffering leave something behind? Or is Poveglia simply a place where history feels impossible to escape? 👻 We'd love to hear your paranormal experiences! 📧 [email protected] 📱 Follow us on Facebook and Instagram for photos, bonus content, and episode updates. 🖤 Support the show and grab your Inherited Hauntings merch. ⭐ If you're enjoying the podcast, please leave us a 5-star rating and review on Apple Podcasts.
