Just east of the sun-drenched beaches of Rio de Janeiro, in the city of Niterói, sits the windswept bank of Vintém Hill. It is here on this hillside that Brazilian authorities would discover the bodies of two tv technicians at the center of one of the most enigmatic and enduring mysteries in South American history. Were these two paranormal-obsessed engineers duped into an overdose and robbery, or did they truly make contact with entities from beyond? Either way, this case has far more questions than answers and we’re doing our best to correct the scales.

Episode 20 - The Haunting of Leap Castle
4 RecommendationsThis week, we’re venturing into the rolling emerald hills of central Ireland. A land once ruled by Druidic tribes saw the takeover of western forces in the 13th century and with it the construction of some of the most enduring and iconic structures in European history. Sitting easily among the most recognizable of them is Leap Castle. The 700 year history of Leap Castle reads like a how-to manual on creating angry spirits. Add to that a splash of Druidic protection summoning and you have a proper coddle of paranormal phenomenon.
