It’s that time of year again. The air is cold, lights are glowing, and everywhere you look there’s another Christmas festival, holiday market, or winter celebration bringing people together.

But tonight… we’re stepping away from jingle bells and into something a little more otherworldly. Because while many festivals celebrate joy, light, and togetherness — others honor the dead, the spirits, and the unseen.

In this episode of Ghost Encounters, we’re traveling across cultures and continents to explore ghost festivals from around the world.

In the Victorian era, death was part of life and for many, it became an art form. In this time, they didn’t shy away from death… they invited it in, laid it out in their homes, dressed it, made keepsakes, and even took its photograph. On this episode, we are uncovering the strange beauty and haunting customs of Victorian death culture.

For centuries, lighthouses have stood as lonely sentinels along rocky coasts, guiding sailors to safety… and watching as countless others sank beneath the waves. From phantom keepers to chilling maritime legends, we step into the fog and climb the towers of haunted lighthouses.
