What the Dead Can Teach the Living, Part One | Grave Talks CLASSIC

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! High above St. Joseph, Missouri, stands a mansion too proud — and too haunted — to ever die. Built in 1854 by Armstrong Beattie, a five-time mayor and banker, and his wife Eliza, the Beattie Mansion has seen everything from elegance to sorrow. Over the years, it became a refuge for the homeless, orphans, and the elderly — but many believe some of its guests never truly checked out. Today, the mansion’s long history still echoes through its halls — in whispers, footsteps, and cold spots that appear out of nowhere. Armstrong and Eliza’s spirits are said to linger, forever watching over their home like spectral landlords. Contractors hired to work on the building often don’t last long. Tools vanish. Doors slam. And unseen hands seem to make their disapproval known. For nearly 170 years, the Beattie Mansion has been a monument to both Missouri’s history and its hauntings — a place where the past is still very much alive. Join us as we sit down with current owner Michael Burkart, who’s experienced firsthand what it’s like to live — and work — alongside the dead. Some houses have history. This one has residents. This is Part Two of our conversation. #RealGhostStories #BeattieMansion #HauntedMissouri #TrueGhostStory #HauntedHistory #StJosephHaunting #ParanormalPodcast #GhostEncounters #HauntedMansion #SupernaturalStories Love real ghost stories?

Some hauntings start with a knock in the dark. Hers began at age four with a bed that shook on its own—and a garage door slamming in the middle of the night when no one was there. This is a true story of a haunting that matured with its victim: from a child’s terror to a teenager’s incubus-like dreams, to an adult who made one mistake—asking a DIY Ouija board if anyone was there. The board answered with two letters: R.C. What followed is the kind of real haunting you can’t shrug off. Sleep paralysis that felt too physical to dismiss. A voice at her ear saying, “It’s me.” A blackout at 3 a.m., a dead phone, scraping in the wall, and a whisper: “You shouldn’t have called me back.” She burned the board, prayed, salted, begged it to leave. The candle died sideways. The air turned cold. And the presence promised, “See you soon.” Is this sleep paralysis, incubus attack, or a spirit attachment that responds to invitation?  Is R.C. a name, a claim… or a warning? #trueghoststory #realhaunting #hauntedhouse #sleepparalysis #incubus #ouijaboard #shadowman #paranormalstories #ghoststories #demonicencounter #poltergeist #creepyencounters Love real ghost stories?

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! It was supposed to be a normal day in the late ’70s — bad perms, disco on the radio, and teenage daydreams. But for Ellen MacNeil, that day would change her life forever. It began with a feeling — a heaviness she couldn’t shake, a shadow that lingered behind every laugh in the high school hallway. Then came the signs. The photo of her brother falling from the wall. Her watch freezing in time. A strange chill that seemed to move with her through the house. And the phone call — the one that confirmed what her soul already knew. Her brother had been killed in Vietnam. But death didn’t stop him from coming home. In the days that followed, Ellen’s world turned surreal. The lights flickered. Pictures shifted. Objects moved on their own. It was as if her brother’s spirit refused to let her grieve alone — determined to show her he was still there, protecting her, guiding her, and refusing to fade away. Decades later, Ellen still remembers that strange and beautiful haunting — proof that sometimes love doesn’t end when the heartbeat does. Because family ties don’t just survive death… they haunt it. This is Part Two of our conversation. #RealGhostStories #VietnamGhostStory #ParanormalEncounters #TrueGhostStory #FamilyHaunting #AfterlifeConnection #GhostlyPresence #SpiritOfAWarHero #HauntedByLove #ParanormalPodcast Love real ghost stories?

She thought the chance to say goodbye was lost forever. Eight years after her grandfather Henry passed suddenly from a stroke, a quiet rainy afternoon in her small brick home became the moment she’d been waiting for. Alone in his old recliner — the only piece of him she kept — she drifted off for what felt like seconds, only to open her eyes and see him standing there. The smell of pipe tobacco. The plaid flannel shirt. The heavy work boots. And the words she hadn’t heard since she was nineteen: “Hey, kiddo.” And when her little boy later spoke of “the man with the hat” who made him laugh in his dreams, she couldn’t help but believe Henry had found a way to reach them both. This unforgettable story explores the love that lingers long after death and the visit that gave a grieving granddaughter the goodbye she thought she’d never have. #TrueGhostStory #GrandfatherVisitation #ParanormalEncounter #GoodbyeFromBeyond #RealHaunting #SignsFromBeyond #FamilyGhostStory #EmotionalParanormal #AfterlifeConnection #TheManWithTheHat #HeartwarmingHaunting #GhostStory2025 Love real ghost stories?

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! Some people hunt ghosts. Others are hunted by them. For Bryan-Jon Laverty, the paranormal wasn’t a hobby — it was a lifelong companion. From strange noises in the dark to full-blown encounters with restless spirits, Bryan couldn’t escape the feeling that something was always trying to reach him. Instead of running from it, he leaned in. What began as fear turned into fascination—and ultimately a calling. Bryan shares how he came to terms with his psychic sensitivity, the encounters that shaped his journey, and the spirits that followed him every step of the way. Because when the dead refuse to let go… sometimes, the only option is to listen.

From the moment the youngest child was born, strange things followed wherever they went. A shadow in a Halloween mask watched from the closet. Doors slammed in empty rooms. Toys moved on their own. But every time they moved houses, the same spirits came too. The haunting didn’t belong to the walls—it belonged to them. In one home, a bubble of light appeared from nowhere, floating in midair before vanishing. Soon after, the family’s fortune collapsed. In another house, the youngest saw a black figure standing at the end of the hall, a faceless silhouette they called “The Old Man.” Around him, shadow animals appeared—cats that purred, dogs that brushed against their legs, unseen but somehow alive. But when a voice finally whispered “Help me” and words appeared in a notebook—home, boy, 1914—the truth came clear. The spirits weren’t haunting them. They were reaching out, asking to be remembered. This isn’t just another real haunting—it’s proof that some bloodlines are born between worlds, bound by memory, mystery, and love that refuses to die. #realhaunting #trueghoststory #hauntedhouse #paranormalexperience #ghoststories #supernatural #creepyencounters #ghosts #psychicfamily #shadowfigure #spiritcommunication #unexplained Love real ghost stories?

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! For Dominique O’Gorman, death isn’t an ending — it’s a transition. As a medium, psychic, and certified Death Doula, she’s dedicated her life to helping souls on both sides of the veil find peace, healing, and understanding. From childhood, Dominique could see and sense what others couldn’t — spirits seeking connection, validation, and closure. Guided by her Spirit Guide, she’s spent her life translating those messages for the living, helping families navigate grief and rediscover hope. In this episode of The Grave Talks, we explore Dominique’s extraordinary journey, her sacred work as a bridge between worlds, and the profound lessons she’s learned from those who’ve crossed over. Because in the end, the dead don’t just remind us how to die — they teach us how to truly live. This is Part Two of our conversation.
