Inside the Old Idaho Penitentiary, Part Two | Grave Talks CLASSIC

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! What exactly is a spirit guide—and do we all have one? Or are spirit guides reserved for a spiritually gifted few? For some, the idea of having unseen guidance from the other side is as natural as breathing. For others, it’s a mystery wrapped in questions. In this episode of The Grave Talks, we dive deep into the world of spirit guides with spiritual practitioner Jen Jons. Together, we explore who these guides are, what their role is in our lives, how they communicate, and how anyone—regardless of belief or background—can begin to connect with them.

On this episode, we explore a haunting story of a soon-to-be father desperate to protect his family from an unseen entity. What started as minor disturbances in his new home—doors opening, electronics moving—escalated as his wife’s pregnancy progressed. Now, with footsteps echoing in the baby room and garage doors opening on their own, he’s convinced there’s something sinister at work. Our storyteller, a devout Catholic, fears that a dark spirit may be preying on the growing tension in his marriage. As he seeks guidance from a Jesuit priest, he wonders: Is this simply a ghost, or something far more dangerous? Tune in as we unravel the mystery of a haunting that refuses to let go and a man’s fight to keep his family safe.

On this episode, Tony Brueski digs into the chilling history of Mission San Miguel Arcángel, exploring the tragic events that have led many to believe the spirits of Native Americans and Spanish settlers haunt the mission. Through interviews with historians and paranormal investigators, Tony examines the evidence and theories surrounding the reported hauntings, seeking to uncover the truth behind the legends.  Join us as we delve into the mission's past, from its founding and role in California's mission system to the infamous Reed family murders and the enduring tales of restless spirits.

After more than 15 quiet years in the same house, something suddenly changed during one woman’s senior year of high school. Paranormal activity began to unfold out of nowhere—dishwashers ejecting trays, hangers crashing to the floor, unexplained clapping, and a family dog refusing to go into the basement. Over time, the activity intensified, often targeting her when she was alone. Her mother, too, began hearing disturbing sounds, while her new puppy, years later, started growling at things unseen in the darkness. Could the spirit from the notoriously haunted house across the street be paying visits? Or did something else decide to make itself known?   If you have a Grave Confession, Call it in 24/7 at 1-888-GHOST-13 (1-888-446-7813) Subscribe to get all of our true ghost stories EVERY DAY!

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! Jails and penitentiaries are often magnets for paranormal energy—and the Old Idaho Penitentiary is no exception. Built in 1870, before Idaho even became a state, the prison operated for over a century, witnessing everything from brutal riots and daring escapes to chilling executions. Among the most infamous inmates was Raymond Snowden—nicknamed “Idaho’s Jack the Ripper”—who was executed for a gruesome murder and is believed by many to still haunt the prison grounds. Visitors and staff alike have reported unsettling experiences: disembodied voices, phantom touches, and an overwhelming sense of being watched. In this episode of The Grave Talks, Visitor Services Coordinator Jacey Brain joins us to share the dark history and persistent hauntings of this historic prison. What lingers behind these stone walls—and why won’t it let go?  This is Part Two of our conversation. For more information on historical tours and paranormal events, visit history.idaho.gov.
