I wouldn't say we're back. I'd say we're bored. The quality of this episode reflects that properly. See you in another six months, nerds.This is the story of Diana of the Dunes. Come for the ghost, stay for too much cholesterol, chippies gotta go, Governor Heehaw, typical millennial, insuffragette, it's probably bears, and a very viscous route.Sources:⁠https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diana_of_the_Dunes⁠⁠https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indiana_ghostlore⁠⁠https://notebookofghosts.com/2016/11/28/indiana-ghosts-diana-of-the-dunes/⁠⁠https://dailyyonder.com/visiting-dunes-on-a-dare-ghost-story-of-nature-loving-recluse-inspires-a-challenge-in-the-national-park/2021/10/01/⁠

This episode is about Borley Rectory. It's a rectory in Borley. There's a ghost or more than one ghost. There are jokes and other things, too. Probably fun stories. Maybe even a new shirt idea? We're not sure. Okay, Clayton didn't have time to listen to the episode and so now we don't have any show notes. But it's a super great episode for sure for sure for sure. Good luck!

Snug sounds nice, doesn't it? Snug as a ghost in some toast. We like that.This is the story of Snug Harbor. Unfortunately, Clayton's new puppy ate all the show notes.

There are way too many inappropriate jokes in this episode and we should go on record saying they are Patrick's fault.This is the story of Bowers Mansion. Come for the ghosts, stay for the only thing daddy needs, the coolest spaceship on the block, castle-debtor's prison-flat-gutter, convenience that God has bestowed upon us, ignore the sores, the Comstock load, having a baby on the moon, and she's in a business envelope.By the way, trust us that there has never been a more important time than RIGHT NOW to join Ghost+.

What began as a routine Sunday school excursion would become one of the deadliest railroad accidents in early American history. An overcrowded passenger train, running behind schedule, collided head-on with a locomotive traveling in the opposite direction on a single-track line. In the absence of modern signaling systems or centralized control, a series of small breakdowns in timing and communication led to catastrophic consequences. In this episode, we examine the events of that day, the operational failures behind the collision, and what this tragedy reveals about the risks of early rail systems.

Christians are weird, aren't they? Hit the music!This is the story of the Wesley poltergeist. Come for the ghost, stay for deep in the stink, I'm a mean girl now, nursery rhyme levels of children, just three bros, the hornery, and something for everyone.
