American Hauntings Podcast

Introducing Season 8 of the American Hauntings Podcast, which goes in search of America's Murder Houses, where the spirits of the past still linger behind. In this season, we’ll be taking you behind the locked doors of both famous and little-known places, where murder, violence, and brutal events occurred and have left a mark on the house as a haunting.We'll have at least 23 murder houses on our list – each with its own unique story of homicide, horror, and a haunting. This will be the most gruesome and ghost-filled season of the podcast so far and we’re excited to take you on a coast-to-coast journey in search of the true stories that crime has left behind. You are not going to want to miss a single episode because there’s never going to be any way for you to know just what door we’ll be unlocking next. Check out the podcast website at http://americanhauntingspodcast.comWant a new episode of American Hauntings every week, plus some awesome perks and discounts?

Throughout the past year, we’ve introduced you to a very strange collection of stories about people who have gone missing – disappeared without a trace, never to return. But as an end of the year "thank you" for all the great feedback, story ideas, texts, emails, and support that we’ve gotten from you this season, we wanted to offer you one last story. We’ll warn you though – this isn’t your typical missing person story. This one has a bit of a twist, which is why I wanted to save it to the very end.

It was on June 6 of that year when two Missouri teenagers and one of their mothers vanished without a trace after a graduation ceremony and have never been seen again. There was no valid reason for the three of them to disappear. They weren’t running from anything or looking for a new life. They’d just celebrated the event of a lifetime and had everything to live for.So, where did the three of them go? And why have they never been found? We don’t know. The shocking and tragic events of graduation night have created a haunting mystery that remains unsolved to this day.Check out our updated website and sign up for our newsletter at AmericanHauntingsPodcast.comWant an episode every week, plus other awesome perks and discounts?

On March 24, 1998, a young woman named Amy Lynn Bradley vanished from a Royal Caribbean cruise ship while it was on its way to Curacao. Cruises seem to be an escape from reality, but crime happens on board, too. Most reported crimes are, unfortunately, sexual assaults but other things can happen, just like anywhere when you put that many people into one confined space.Check out our updated website and sign up for our newsletter at AmericanHauntingsPodcast.comWant an episode every week, plus other awesome perks and discounts?

When the Jamison family of Eufala, Oklahoma, vanished in October 2009, it got the attention of the entire country. They seemingly disappeared without a trace one night, which was strange enough, but the story that led up to their disappearance was outright bizarre. Check out our updated website and sign up for our newsletter at AmericanHauntingsPodcast.comWant an episode every week, plus other awesome perks and discounts?

Much has changed at the Mineral Springs since it opened more than a century ago, but if you stand in the lobby – when the lighting is just right – you almost expect to see guests in old-fashioned clothing as they hurry past on their way to a mineral cure or to have a cocktail in the hotel bar.And if the stories are true – they still do. Join us in this special 10-episode "on the side" season as we revisit new and updated stories from our very first season of the podcast on Alton, Illinois, based on the new edition of HAUNTED ALTON by Troy Taylor, available below.Get the updated version of HAUNTED ALTON here.Check out our updated website and sign up for our newsletter at AmericanHauntingsPodcast.comCheck out our merch at AmericanHauntingsClothing.comFollow us on Twitter @AmerHauntsPod, @TroyTaylor13, @CodyBeckSTLFollow us on Instagram @AmericanHauntingsPodcast, @TroyTaylorgram, @CodyBeckSTLSubscribe for more bonus content on our Patreon pageThis episode was written by Troy TaylorProduced and edited by

Every town has a story like the one you just heard. Some places, like Alton, have more than one. Most people dismiss stories like that as nothing more than folklore – a tale to be told around the campfire – but I can’t help but wonder how some of these stories got started in the first place...Join us in this special 10-episode "on the side" season as we revisit new and updated stories from our very first season of the podcast on Alton, Illinois, based on the new edition of HAUNTED ALTON by Troy Taylor, available below.Get the updated version of HAUNTED ALTON here.Check out our updated website and sign up for our newsletter at AmericanHauntingsPodcast.comCheck out our merch at AmericanHauntingsClothing.comFollow us on Twitter @AmerHauntsPod, @TroyTaylor13, @CodyBeckSTLFollow us on Instagram @AmericanHauntingsPodcast, @TroyTaylorgram, @CodyBeckSTLSubscribe for more bonus content on our Patreon pageThis episode was written by Troy TaylorProduced and edited by Cody BeckSupport this podcast at — https://re
