On this episode, we’re heading to Japan—into a world where folklore blurs the line between the terrifying, tragic… and downright bizarre. Yōkai are not your typical spirits.

Some emerge from forgotten objects left to decay. Some exist only to unsettle, confuse, or disturb those who cross their path. And others are far darker—manifestations of war, suffering, and souls that have been denied peace.

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.

As paranormal investigators ourselves, we have a few bones to pick. In this episode, we’re diving into the ghostly grievances and supernatural eye-rolls that drive us just a little crazy. It’s all in good spooky fun—but let’s be honest, some of this stuff needs to be exorcised from the genre.

On this episode, we’re turning our eyes to the sky—but don’t expect sunshine and rainbows. This episode isn’t about your average weather forecast. It’s about storms that bring more than thunder... clouds that hide creatures, curses, and chaos. You may need more than just an umbrella.

Some songs get stuck inside your head, While others play—and leave you dead. On this episode, we’re tuning in to the darkest side of music—From the bone-chilling legend of Robert Johnson’s Cross Road Blues and his alleged deal with the Devil, to Rezső Seress’s Gloomy Sunday, known as “The Hungarian Suicide Song,” and even the strange, deadly curse surrounding Frank Sinatra’s My Way. This isn’t just music, it’s harmonic homicide.
