Banshees And Booze

Does bigfoot have a meth problem? Well, if he does we'd downvote the shit out of that, because this week is HAUNTED STORIES OF REDDIT! Freeze your bra and don't make too much noise, because my dad has to work in the morning. Amie and Tami go back and forth reading some of the creepiest tales ever to make it to the front page of the internet. This one has it all: guardian angels hitchhikers, a life-saving sweet tooth, and even a ghost actually ON Reddit! You'll never look at a herd of deer the same way! .

Hang on to your cowboy hats, because this is not a drill! This week's Fifty States of Ghosts pick is TEXAS!!!! Once Tami stops hyperventilating, she goes down to ole San Anton' to talk about the literal DOZENS of ghosts that have been haunting the Alamo right from the beginning. This place has it all: cowboy ghosts, soldier ghosts, and even the ghost of Hollywood royalty! And Amie saunters up to Austin to talk about The Driskill Hotel, which has the worst, most haunted 5th floor any of us has ever heard of! Leave the gun, take the 24 ounce Shiner, because when it comes to the Alamo you really shouldn't FUGGET ABOUT IT! .

Light up some organs and pop a corset, because this week we're talking VAMPIRES! Vampires: why the heck not? Somehow both of the gals managed to find some nice home grown American vampires, all with suspiciously similar stories in the northeasterly states. Turns out people have NEVER listened to doctors. Luckily there are a fair number of ghost stories that have popped up around these tales, and we even get lucky with an impromptu Up Ghost and Personal from Amie! Spoiler alert: that fog you see in Woodstock might NOT just be from all the weed! . We're Social!: www.bansheesandbooze.com www.instagram.com/bansheesandbooze www.twitter.com/bansheesnbooze .

Dust off your red flag collection and don your finest dumbass hat, because this week we're talking HAUNTED IOWA! Iowanna (see what I did there?) first tell you about the MANY haunted black angel statues in various cemeteries in the state. There are so many that there are actually only two, but that's plenty! Next we talk Ham Fam at the haunted Ham Mansion in Dubuque, starring the next breakout film star: a lady with a gun and the 3,000 receipts she needs to sue a narcissist! Also in this episode find out why you should NEVER cross HauntedHouses . com - it would make you a low down skunk who will get your just desserts! .

Discard your bras and reuse your dirty glasses, because this week we are talking HAUNTED WINERIES!!! It's a topic that pair well with cheese, shellfish, and horror, and we've got the tanins and terror to prove it! Amie takes us to Bartholomew Park Winery, where it was literally at one point every kind of establishment that is ever haunted, and has the bodies in the walls to prove it! And Tami listens to Tim Allen and decides to VisitMichigan.com to check out a winery that's so bad at checking IDs that there's a little ghost kid running around! All that and plus: tell us if you'd like to do a scary movie watch-along! We're taking suggestions and input to figure out a way to hang with our best pals: y'all! (But if Amie asks, Tami is her ONLY partner in wine...) . We're Social!: www.bansheesandbooze.com www.instagram.com/bansheesandbooze www.twitter.com/bansheesnbooze .

Who scares the scare actors? This week it's everything, because we're traveling in style to HAUNTED HAWAII!!! Tami gets to virtually unwrap her birthday present from Amie, and then scare the pants off of her talking about the multiple entities at the Iao Theatre. And Amie tells the tale of the world's worst dad while talking about the many haunted locations in Plantation Village! Plus, enjoy bonus superstitions and another take down of Tami's least favorite musical (hint: it's the only time neither of us are excited when someone says "Rum"). Aloha! .

Not to brag, but we're "central air on 76 degrees" rich, y'all! It's time to strap on your carabiners and take a Xanax for that claustrophobia of yours, because this week we're talking HAUNTED CAVES!!! Yes, Tami's meditation space has been forever ruined by this research, but that's ok because she got to drink! Amie talks not one but TWO haunted caves; one in jolly old cursed AF England, and one in the "definitely discovered by white dudes" Grand Canyon. Tami puts in 0.5% effort by reading directly from a link shared by a listener (thanks, Carter!), and both of them put their emotional intellegence to the test by starting us off with a 3 minute therapy session. That is... if Amie decided to record this time BOOM, SHOTS FIRED *air horn noise*!!! . We're Social!: www.bansheesandbooze.com www.instagram.com/bansheesandbooze www.twitter.com/bansheesnbooze .

This week on.... BUNS AND BOOZE! No, wait, this is actually some 1830s standup sets. For real though, this week we are taking a spooktacular trip to haunted DELAWARE! Pick your lice and leave off your bra, because Tami's got a mansion that's named after a beer (Amstel) in a town that's named after a beer (New Castle), so guess what she's drinking! And Amie went for the low-hanging fruit, so to speak, and grabbed onto Crabby Dick's: the most well-reviewed lewd chain restaurant in Delaware. If you can't remember the name of something, just invent it and blame it on the 90s! . We're Social!: www.bansheesandbooze.com www.instagram.com/bansheesandbooze www.twitter.com/bansheesnbooze .

Where do you go when you meditate? Well, make sure not to invite Amie, especially if you're visiting one of our topics this week: HAUNTED BARNS AND FARMS! Amie finds the most haunted farm in the UK, with the sexiest cat enthusiast ghost hunters (after ourselves, natch), and Tami fights the urge to compare Hollywood and history with the Old Arnold Estate, aka the farm that inspired The Conjuring! Be patient when communicating with your ghost via Zoom, and always remember: sometimes you get the bear, and sometimes the bear meditates with you. .

Is it Tr*mpy, or are we triggered? This week our 50 States of Ghosts takes us to the Mountain State (???) of WEST VIRGINA! Tami takes on a whole haunted town called Harper's Ferry, where the candy is as historical as the crazy-looking revolutionaries. And Amie tells the tale of The Mothman, while trying to explain necking to Tami who just wants to lust after animated mice. We hope you're having a Self-Care Summer, and remember: cat hair is fine to drink if the ABV is right! .

Oh boy, we're dusting off an oldie but a goodie and revisiting one of Amie's favorite episodes: URBAN EXPLORING WITH DAVE SNOOK! Don't worry, Tami pops in to ramble on in a fresh intro, but we hope you'll give this one a listen if you haven't been here since the beginning; it might explain why we're always insisting that when you come across a Ouiji Board that you "fuckin' burn it!" .

The world is reopening, and the Banshees are determined to ruin every part of travel for you! On this installment of our Fifty States of Ghosts series, we're taking on haunted GEORGIA! Amie takes on the Marietta Museum of History where the elevator rides are scarier than the janitorial processes, and Tami tells you a hundred ways to die by fire in the haunted Ellis Hotel. Maybe we should all just stay home in our Dilliard's pajamas with our spiked Sonic drinks. .

The world is starting to get back to normal, so what do we do? Try to ruin it for everyone! Pop a Xanax or slam some mini bottles, because this week we're talking about HAUNTED AIRPLANES! Tami gives Amie so many chills that they come back to her by telling the tale of the ghosts of Flight 401. And Amie goes straight to the source with some terrifying tales of first-person ghost encounters on planes. Fresh-baked socks, anyone? .

No one needs to tell us why women are attracted to withholding men: we've had cats. Join our live studio audience in visiting a thousand lands of a thousand lakes: MINNESOTA! Amie takes us to the Prince-frequented First Avenue nightclub, where legs are optional and balloons are creepy! And Tami does some Zillow-adjacent research on the rental rates at the artist loft formerly known as the Schmidt Brewery. Get some terrifying insight into our inner monologues (moose tracks? bras?) and remember: girl code still applies even when you're a ghost! .

Where did you win the genetic lottery, and where did your DAD RUIN EVERYTHING??? Check your promotional emails because any day could be an international wine day OR a day to celebrate WWII GHOSTS! Tami cannot be more single as she sweats over some painters on the haunted af USS Hornet (you see what we did there?), while Amie is just trying to watch her Japanese soaps in peace without a damn Samurai ghost galloping through the base housing in Okinawa. So grab a bottle of one-up inky wine and remember: don't leave a ring light plugged in overnight. .

Beep beep ba beep, this just in over the wire, reports confirm that YOU da ho! Haha, classic burn... This episode in the Fifty States of Ghosts series covers the moderately haunted potato fields of IDAHO! Amie learns what it takes to make a state with the haunted Idaho State Penitentiary, and Tami struggles with pronouncing her place... before it was just Pete's Tavern, she swears. Say, does it count as a speakeasy if you can find it on Yelp? . We're Social!: www.bansheesandbooze.com www.instagram.com/bansheesandbooze www.twitter.com/bansheesnbooze .

Is this a mommy recipe blog, or an entry on WebMD? It's neither, because this week we're celebrating international TWILIGHT ZONE DAY! Yes, folks, we didn't make it up, because the internet got there before us. Tami watches the classic episode "The Hitch-Hiker" and marvels over the cost of tires in 1960, while Amie questions the pitiful entertainment schedule in heaven that would lead a grandma to try and kill her own grandson. Plus hear real-life stories inspired by both of these episodes, and learn why Amie's got an expiration date on her nanny job (hint: kids can't be trusted). .

Is that smoker's voice, or is it Banshees After Dark...? You bet your winky this weeky is another entry into the 50 States of Ghosts series with: OHIO! Amie talks literal BONES in WALLS at Franklin Castle in Cleveland, and Tami breaks ground with the podcast's first ever haunted gazebo (now we've haunted it all!). Pour yourself a tall one and remember: always teach children anatomical names for their junk, or risk being raked in 30 years on their podcast. .

Whoop Dee Doo, it's nearly Mother's Day! Time to get nostalgic about the best kid's channel of all time, Nickelodeon, and see if Amie's mom listens (hiiii!). Amie and Tami are talking Founding Mothers, and finding that most of them were too tired from being the strong woman behind the man, that they didn't stick around to do much haunting. But! There are some great paranormal stories about feminist-in-training Abigail Adams, and Martha Washington (.... the Inn). Plus we've got a bonus mother (pew pew!) and a heavy dose of bitches, stiches, and even witches. .

If a ghost haunts in an underpopulated state and there's no one there to scream, does it still make a boo? These are the deep questions we're tackling this week with haunted MONTANA! Watch out for Whisky Ditch, boys, because Tami's got the history covered with the Billings, Montana mansion of the Moss family. And Amie's serving Gold Rush realness with a ghost town that is also a "full of ghosts" town! And, please take a moment of silence for Tami's liver, which will surely fail ever since the creepy encounter in her very own apartment! RIP, sleep! .
