Spooks are known to haunt houses, castles, cemeteries, abandoned hospitals, and even toys or other objects\u2026 but somehow, it\u2019s haunted roads that seem the darkest for many. (America\u2019s Haunted Roads) *** A heating engineer working in the Treasurer\u2019s House in York, England is disturbed by music\u2026 and then the ghostly presence of at least twenty Roman soldiers walking right past him through the walls! (The Roman Ghosts of York) *** The last man hanged at Bodmin Jail not only still lingers at the location \u2013 he has even been caught on camera. (The Haunting of Bodmin Jail) *** We\u2019ll share the true and tragic story of a teenaged girl who\u2019s abnormality landed her on the freak show circuit, with people paying to gawk at \u201cThe Camel Girl\u201d. (Ella Harper: The Freak Show Camel Girl) *** And be sure to listen to the end\u2026 because I\u2019ll be sharing a special preview of a new podcast that I\u2019m hosting called \u201cAllegedly\u201d which is already available to listen to. Our first episode stars Michael Emerson, whom you might remember from the TV shows \u201cLost\u201d, \u201cA Person of Interest\u201d or Paramount+\u2019s current hit series, \u201cEvil\u201d. Be listening for that at the end of this episode!
