168: Extra-stitious Friday

It's Friday the 13th! And the good news is that provided you aren't a camp counselor, or a member of a medieval military Catholic order, you really don't have anything to fear. Yet many people dread this date when it shows up on the calendar. But why? And for that matter, why do people have superstitions at all? A very special guest joins us this time to discuss all things superstitious and Friday the 13th.

It is quite possibly the most famous haunted house in the world. The legend of Sarah Winchester and her attempt to build her way out of a family curse, and haunted not just by ghosts, but the very source of her wealth. It's a good story, but is there more than the ghost of truth here? Or is it all just a great big house of cards?  This time we are joined by Elizabeth Kile, author of Haunted San Jose to look at the foundations of this renowned house and solve the mystyery of The Winchester Mystery House.  Support us on Patreon! patreon.com/leasthaunted Join us on Discord! https://discord.gg/27WpypQcSE Buy Elizabeth's Book!

It is claimed to be the most authentic case of alien abduction ever documented. It was made into a Hollywood film. It has sold books, and launched the abduction craze as we know it.

Now another Travis (Least Haunted's "attorney" Travis Alexander) will help Cody put this story on trial, weigh the evidence, try to find the truth... If we can handle it. And answer the question, "Is Alien Justice blind?"  Support us on Patreon! patreon.com/leasthaunted Join us on Discord! https://discord.gg/27WpypQcSE Check out our Tumblr! tumblr.com/leasthaunted   "Least Haunted" and "The Least Haunted Podcast" ©2020-20206 Sequoidea Productions LLC. Use of this podcast to train A.I. is strictly prohibited and may result in legal action.
