The episode where Boydston shares a fun story about a mental health walk…Satan’s safe space, if you will. This is the story of the Devil’s Tramping Ground in North Carolina. This section of land is a 40 foot wide circular path where nothing grows, so of course it must be where the devil does all his thinking, right? Look, even Satan needs his safe space to plot against humanity or process all his big feelings. We’ll discuss what could be behind this strange phenomenon of lack of vegetation, and discuss our plans to camp out there (not happening).Come say hi on our socials!Facebook- The Tipsy GhostInstagram- @thetipsyghostpodcastTikTok @thetipsyghost_podEmail us your stories at [email protected] your support when you subscribe, leave a great review & give us a 5 star rating—it really helps!

The episode where we share our recent haunted investigation at the Villa Katherine in Quincy, IL. This beautiful home was built in 1900 along the banks of the Mississippi River using Moroccan architecture. Meaning: she pretty. We’ll share the history of the Villa Katherine, the spirits that haunt her, and share our night trying to play fetch with a spirit dog named Bingo (seriously, we are the coolest people we know).Come say hi on our socials!Facebook- The Tipsy GhostInstagram- @thetipsyghostpodcastTikTok @thetipsyghost_podEmail us your stories at [email protected] your support when you subscribe, leave a great review & give us a 5 star rating—it really helps!

The episode where Sarah brings us a true crime story about the Pendle Witches from 1600s Lancashire, England. Before there was Salem, there was Old Demdike, Mother Chattox and Suspirious (Rihanna, play our theme song!). Listen, Linda has many regrets in this episode and the filter is gone. Boydston has a coven of one and we are offended. And we realize the reason women were throwing each other under the bus during those times was because of a lack of pants. Sisterhood. Traveling. Get on our level cus this episode is A LOT.Come say hi on our socials!Facebook- The Tipsy GhostInstagram- @thetipsyghostpodcastTikTok @thetipsyghost_podEmail us your stories at [email protected] your support when you subscribe, leave a great review & give us a 5 star rating—it really helps!

The episode where Boydston brings us a smorgasbord episode about the first Body Farm, aka her book report on “Death’s Acre”. That’s right, we have another medical history lesson, more specifically, about how we began studying body decomposition to further the field of forensics. We know it’s a history lesson but we promise, this is a fascinating topic. We learn that Linda hates the word “fleshy”, the Sarahs loved cadaver lab (who could have guessed), and we discuss our favorite weapon, apparently this is important.Come say hi on our socials!Facebook- The Tipsy GhostInstagram- @thetipsyghostpodcastTikTok @thetipsyghost_podEmail us your stories at [email protected] your support when you subscribe, leave a great review & give us a 5 star rating—it really helps!

The episode where Lindsey shares a paranormal story about a literal ghost town: Bannack, Montana. There is a lot of history behind this mining town that was founded in 1862 and left abandoned a century later. Rather than demolish the buildings and the town, the state preserved the town as a State Park that you can now visit. And of course, to be a ghost town, one must be haunted with ghosts (supposedly allegedly). The true gifts in this episode involve fact or fiction smut titles, and Lindsey’s voice to text notes. Buckle up (saddle up?) - we’re going to the Wild West!Come say hi on our socials!Facebook- The Tipsy GhostInstagram- @thetipsyghostpodcastTikTok @thetipsyghost_podEmail us your stories at [email protected] your support when you subscribe, leave a great review & give us a 5 star rating—it really helps!

The episode where we share our recent investigation in our favorite spooky town of Alton, IL. AND it’s another Masonic Lodge! Listen, we love a place we’re not supposed to be. This is the Franklin Lodge #25, and no that is not a ranking system. What happens when you put the 3 of us in a men’s only place? Answer: Shenanigans, as we tell the spirits we can vote AND wear pants now. We sat on thrones, we learned a lot about the tallest man, Robert Wadlow, and we got an exasperated spirit. Typical, honestly.Come say hi on our socials!Facebook- The Tipsy GhostInstagram- @thetipsyghostpodcastTikTok @thetipsyghost_podEmail us your stories at [email protected] your support when you subscribe, leave a great review & give us a 5 star rating—it really helps!

The extra episode where Sarah brings us another story of a famous historical figure from Austria! And no, it’s not Mozart. This is the story of King Ludwig II and how his eccentricities in life led to a true crime mystery. Some may even say…unsolved?! Lindsey is proud, look at them doing unsolved mysteries. The less said about the story, the better, but it is a fascinating piece of history and you’ll have to tell us what you think happened to Ludwig.Come say hi on our socials!Facebook- The Tipsy GhostInstagram- @thetipsyghostpodcastTikTok @thetipsyghost_podEmail us your stories at [email protected] your support when you subscribe, leave a great review & give us a 5 star rating—it really helps!

The episode where Boydston gives us another scam true crime story, our favorite. And listen, we’re gonna deep dive into two incredibly niche hobbies: fly tying/birds and salmon fishing. Combine that with a flautist who just really wanted a golden flute, and you have a crime that really we should have been called about cus we could have solved this. It’s 2009, Edwin Rist breaks into a museum to steal 299 rare bird skins. This story is insane but all true, we promise.Come say hi on our socials!Facebook- The Tipsy GhostInstagram- @thetipsyghostpodcastTikTok @thetipsyghost_podEmail us your stories at [email protected] your support when you subscribe, leave a great review & give us a 5 star rating—it really helps!

The episode where Lindsey shares a smorgasbord story about Lady Wonder, a psychic horse. Yes, this is a real story, and no ChatGPT did not contribute to it. Lady Wonder was known for being a stable sleuth and solving true crime while also making election predictions. She did it all, much like our boy Sound. Listen, Lady Wonder may not measure up to Sound but we love a good animal story and a good history lesson.Come say hi on our socials!Facebook- The Tipsy GhostInstagram- @thetipsyghostpodcastTikTok @thetipsyghost_podEmail us your stories at [email protected] your support when you subscribe, leave a great review & give us a 5 star rating—it really helps!
