The Scarecast Files #16: Finally caught our house ghost…

In this episode, we explore a family&#39;s 15-year journey living alongside an unseen presence in their Victorian home. What began as mysterious footsteps evolved into tangible evidence when a motion-activated camera captured a translucent figure in the upstairs hallway. The story intertwines the family&#39;s experiences, their grandmother&#39;s antique collection, and the shocking revelation of not one, but two spectral entities in a single photograph. The episode discusses the family&#39;s transition from skepticism to belief, the potential connection between inherited antiques and paranormal activity, and the challenges of coexisting with otherworldly residents. Join us as we blur the line between the known and unknown, and ponder the question: How does a family continue living in a home they now know is shared with ghostly inhabitants?

S8E10 - 5 TRUE Scary Stories: Something Was With Me Last Night

Hey everyone, it’s been a while since I last released a podcast episode, so I thought it was time to bring back the kind of content you all love. In this episode, I’ve gathered some intriguing stories from Reddit, covering everything from paranormal encounters to creepy ex-boyfriends to strange creatures spotted on the road. Whether or not you believe these tales, they’re all claimed to be real experiences. We’re kicking things off with a story about a man suffering from long COVID. According to a quick Google search, long COVID is a chronic condition that lasts for at least three months and can affect one or more organ systems, either continuously, in relapses, or progressively. The person in this story has been dealing with it for two years. At one point, his health takes a turn for the worse, but then he has a mysterious encounter that he believes triggers a healing phase. Coupled with bizarre lights in the sky and paranormal encounters in his bedroom, this experience leaves him questioning whether his sudden improvement is just a coincidence—or something more. Story #1: Something was with me in my room last night, i asked it to heal me and it did.

The Scarecast Files #12: The Disappearance of David Gonzales

In this Scarecast Files episode, we delve into the mysterious disappearance and tragic death of 9-year-old David Gonzales. On the morning of July 31st, 2004, during a camping trip at Big Bear Lake, David vanished without a trace while attempting to retrieve a box of cookies from the family truck just 50 yards away from the Big Bear campground. Despite a massive search effort, David&#39;s remains was only discovered a year later, raising more questions than answers. Was it a mountain lion attack, a kidnapping, or something more sinister? Join us as we explore the theories, the investigation, and the unanswered questions surrounding this heartbreaking case. Tune in to unravel the mystery and pay tribute to David&#39;s memory. Old Chair Photography Lab Location (David&#39;s Memorial Accross Street - Unconfirmed): 39185 N Shore Dr, Fawnskin, CA 92333 Instagram Video: [https://www.instagram.com/p/C7Xs6TjP76x/] (https://www.instagram.com/p/C7Xs6TjP76x/) Instagram Comments Mentioned: @camelia1506 - Just terrible but glad that his remains were found to help parents have closure with their son. Otherwise parents would be still looking for him. Rip little angel. @cesar_chingon_number_1 - I was just a little kid still when this happened. And strangely to this day i think alot about this little boys missing case. A few years ago i took my jeep to big bear and several times after that one day after wheeling i was airing up my tires , i looked over and there he was. His smiling face just as i remembered seeing him on tv. Its a memorial plaque located across the street from old chair photography lab in fawnskin Ca. If you ever go there please be respectful and say a prayer for little David. May he rest in peace. We may never know the truth of what happened to him. @jessneedsaninstaa - ight ?! I have a 9 year old as well and I am so paranoid I won’t let her walk to the mailbox without her holding one of our dogs and me and the other dogs watching from the door!! You never know who is lurking, or who is even living next door or across the street. Always be aware and alert !!! @mikeperrry620 - Kids go outside and play all the time without parents watching. It&#39;s ridiculous to blame the mom, the car was only fifty feet away. @noddika - I knew him, he was a twin. His mom used to make dresses for me when I was little. Last time I saw him he was jumping on the bed with his brother while we picked up one of my dresses. It was so terrible when we heard what happened. Be kind in the comments, the family went through a lot. 🤍 Sources [https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-2005-jun-03-me-bones3-story.html] (https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-2005-jun-03-me-bones3-story.html) [https://www.espn.com/outdoors/hunting/news/story?id=2075458] (https://www.espn.com/outdoors/hunting/news/story?id=2075458) [https://mountainlion.org/2005/06/03/lion-attack-theory-abandoned/] (https://mountainlion.org/2005/06/03/lion-attack-theory-abandoned/) [https://abcnews.go.com/GMA/story?id=124433&page=1] (https://abcnews.go.com/GMA/story?id=124433&page=1) [https://www.recordnet.com/story/news/2004/08/06/search-goes-on-for-missing/50697700007/] (https://www.recordnet.com/story/news/2004/08/06/search-goes-on-for-missing/50697700007/) Connect With Me Make sure to follow @thescarecast on both TikTok and Instagram for thrilling content.
