Inside the Old Paulding Jail: Ghosts, History, and Hauntings, Part One | Guest Shelly Robertson

Some hauntings stay behind when you move. Others follow. This is the terrifying true story of a haunting that began in Alameda, California—and followed one family across cities, across years, and across lives. What started with whispers ended with a full-blown war against something darker than a ghost. It began on the very first night in their Alameda apartment. As children lay in bed, they heard music drifting from the closet and rollerblade sounds circling overhead. Then came the ants—cascading from walls, the bathtub, and even the closet itself. On May 1st, when their father was away and their mother worked late, the children were left alone. That night, red eyes burned in the dark. A voice screamed. They dove under covers, terrified. The haunting didn’t stay in Alameda. In Concord, crying came from the attic. In Oakley, footsteps pounded beneath the crawlspace, glasses slid across counters, and boots stomped on carpet where no wood floors existed. By Brentwood, the activity turned violent—beds shaking, electronics exploding, windows rattling. Desperate, he tried to bless his room. The house responded with chaos: lights flickered, wind howled, objects flew, until everything fell silent. For a moment, he thought he was free. But freedom was an illusion. On March 20th, 2007—his birthday—the haunting returned, and by December, an exorcism was the only option. As prayers filled the house, lights burst, glass shattered, doors slammed, and the entity screamed. Finally, silence returned. For now. Because some hauntings don’t end—they only pause. And when they return, it isn’t a whisper. It’s war. #HauntedHouse #TrueGhostStory #RealHaunting #ParanormalEncounters #Poltergeist #OuijaBoard #GhostStories #CreepyTrueStories #Supernatural #ParanormalActivity #Exorcism #ScaryStory Love real ghost stories?

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! For Adrianna Gibson, the journey into the paranormal began in childhood. First came the vision of a spirit in her family home, then the chilling experience of hearing an old radio broadcast from another era play inside her elementary school. These unexplained encounters opened the door to something bigger — a lifelong connection with the other side. As Adrianna grew older, her experiences only deepened, eventually revealing her true nature: she is clairvoyant, able to sense and communicate with spirits beyond the veil. Instead of running from her abilities, she embraced them, studying Reiki healing and expanding her work into paranormal investigation. Her goal? To not only understand the mysteries of the afterlife but also to help others connect, heal, and find meaning in their own encounters. In this episode of The Grave Talks, Adrianna shares her most profound stories, the experiences that shaped her psychic awakening, and how she uses her gifts to guide both the living and the departed. From early encounters with spirits to mastering the art of energy healing, Adrianna Gibson’s journey shows that sometimes the paranormal doesn’t just touch your life — it transforms it. #Talking to the Dead #Clairvoyant #ReikiHealing #PsychicMedium #ParanormalInvestigation #TheGraveTalks #LifeAfterDeath #ParanormalPodcast #SpiritCommunication #HauntedExperiences #PsychicAbilities Love real ghost stories?

Some places feel haunted the moment you step inside. The Old Paulding Jail in Paulding, Ohio, is one of them. Built in 1876, this Victorian-style landmark has stood for nearly 150 years, collecting not just history, but something else. Something unseen. Over the years, visitors have reported shadows sliding across the walls when no one is there, phantom footsteps pacing through the halls, and voices calling out from empty cells. Investigators have captured chilling EVPs, sudden equipment malfunctions, and unexplained cold spots that leave no doubt they’re not alone. And then, of course, there’s Charlie—the jail’s most famous ghost. Said to be a former inmate who never truly left, Charlie is known for his playful pranks, sudden appearances, and the unsettling feeling that you’re being watched. In this episode, we’re joined by Shelly Robertson, owner of the Old Paulding Jail and first-hand witness to its many hauntings. Shelly takes us inside one of Ohio’s most paranormally active locations. If you’re brave enough, step beyond the bars and into the shadows of the Old Paulding Jail.

Numbers have meaning. For one caller, the number 26 has followed her for her entire life — birthdays, addresses, arrests, even dorm rooms. It became a pattern too strange to ignore. But it wasn’t until her best friend Dominic tragically died in a house fire that the number took on a life of its own. During Dominic’s memorial trip to the casino, she walked to the roulette table and watched as the ball landed on 26. Not once. Not twice. But three times in a row. The odds of that happening are astronomical. Was Dominic sending her a sign? Or was it simply coincidence amplified by grief? Tony, Carol, and Todd dive deep into this emotionally charged story, weighing angel numbers, synchronicity, and the psychology of noticing patterns. They bring their usual mix of respect, curiosity, and humor — debating what kind of “signs” we actually want from loved ones on the other side. Would you rather have a dream visitation, or three jaw-dropping roulette spins in a row? This segment is equal parts eerie and emotional — a look at how grief, numbers, and the supernatural intertwine. Have you ever had a number follow you?

Some hauntings don’t stay locked to a single house, a single town, or even a single country. Some attach themselves to a person—and follow them like a shadow stitched to their very life. This is the terrifying true story of “Shadow,” a faceless entity that appeared when a girl was only six years old and never stopped watching her. It began in Florenceville, New Brunswick. A small, quiet Canadian village. One day, while playing upstairs, she heard her name called. Thinking it was her father, she ran to the railing and looked down. Standing in the entryway was not her father. It wasn’t even a man. It was a faceless figure—pure blackness shaped like a human, staring back at her. She screamed, ran, and hid. But the memory never faded. And strangely, he didn’t always bring fear. Sometimes, when he showed himself fully, she felt calm. Safe. But when her boyfriend stayed over, that calm curdled into jealousy. The shadow became angry, territorial—even attacking her boyfriend in the form of a void-like cat that leapt for his face before vanishing mid-air. What was he? A spirit? A demon? A guardian? Or something else entirely? Whatever he was, he followed her across homes, across borders, across years. Intelligent. Emotional. Obsessive. And though she finally told him to leave—she knows silence doesn’t mean absence. It means waiting. Because if he came once, he can always come again. #ShadowMan #TrueGhostStory #RealHaunting #ParanormalEncounters #GhostStories #CreepyTrueStories #FacelessEntity #HauntedLife #Supernatural #ParanormalActivity #ScaryStory #TrueParanormal Love real ghost stories?

Jill M. Jackson, known as the Mississippi Medium, has lived a life shaped by extraordinary spiritual experiences. Growing up in the Bible Belt, she began seeing spirits around the age of seven—an ability that left her both frightened and confused, especially when told by her preacher that her gifts were “evil.” For years, Jill hid her abilities, pursuing a conventional career as a CPA and Business Manager in Hollywood. But after several near-death experiences, she could no longer deny her soul’s true calling. Today, Jill is a Psychic Medium, Spiritual Teacher, and published author dedicated to helping others awaken to their own gifts and life purpose. In her book Mississippi Medium, she shares unforgettable experiences from the spirit world, including visitations and messages from murder victims seeking justice. Today on The Grave Talks, Jill opens up about her journey, her mission, and the remarkable encounters that have defined her work with the other side. This is Part Two of our conversation.
