Discovering the Presence of Spirit Guides, Part Two | Grave Talks CLASSIC

Albany, New York, isn’t just the state capital—it’s one of the oldest cities in America, layered with centuries of untold stories, buried secrets, and forgotten cemeteries hiding beneath modern streets. In this episode, we’re joined by Maeve McEneny-Johnson, Director of Community Engagement with Discover Albany and a seventh-generation native of the capital city whose love for its past runs deep. Maeve shares how her childhood—riding shotgun with her father, the local historian—sparked a lifelong passion for preserving and sharing Albany’s overlooked history. From colonial scandal at Cherry Hill, Abraham Lincoln’s eerie local ties and hauntings to the 1911 Capitol fire—and the Civil War veteran night watchman some say never left his post—Maeve brings Albany’s rich, strange, and sometimes unsettling stories to life in a way few others can. Whether you crave folklore, true crime, or a good historical, paranormal rabbit hole, this episode uncovers the heartbeat of a city that refuses to be forgotten.

It all started the summer before high school, when her family moved into what seemed like the perfect home in Fort Wayne, Indiana. But the moment they arrived, things were… off. Doors wouldn’t open, even when unlocked. Strange kids from next door appeared at all hours. And then one night, while everyone slept, something began tapping at her bedroom window—over and over again. At first, she blamed the neighborhood kids. But when she pulled up the blinds to catch them in the act… no one was there. What followed was a string of terrifying moments she still can’t explain to this day.

What if the scariest thing you've ever seen as a child never left—and only showed herself when you were most vulnerable? When he was just 12, he saw her: a woman with flowing black hair, hollow eyes, and a tattered gray dress, hovering above him in the pitch-black basement of his home. Frozen in fear, he buried himself under the sheets, praying she’d go away. But she didn’t. Over the years, this terrifying entity—what he could only describe as a banshee—appeared again and again, not just to him, but to others in the family. Who was the woman in the basement? Why did she stay? And what did she want? 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!
