Ep 189 - Whistle in the Night: Ghost Trains 🚂👻
Haunted Talks
10/11/24 • 42 min
The piercing scream of a train’s whistle in the dead of night feels like a ghost—it slips through the darkness, unseen, yet you can sense its approach, creeping ever closer. In this episode, we explore the spine-chilling world of ghost trains—phantom locomotives that travel forgotten tracks, leaving behind a trail of fear and mystery. From the lingering presence of Abraham Lincoln’s funeral train still haunting America’s railways, to the chilling urban legends surrounding Sweden’s Silver Arrow, we’ll uncover ghostly tales that defy time and space. We’ll also investigate the strange lights near long-abandoned tracks in rural Saskatchewan and explore the forgotten “ghost stations” hidden beneath our cities. These spectral trains have haunted our imaginations for generations—listen now to uncover the spellbinding stories that refuse to fade away.

Ep 61 - The SF Ghost Hunt
Haunted Talks
07/05/19 • 29 min

05/05/23 • 34 min
There are many people who have claimed to be able to contact the dead. Some identify as mediums or seers or psychics, saying they have a special ability to connect to the other side. For the purposes of this episode, we’re not exploring or questioning the practice of séances or the identity of mediums; we’re specifically looking at historical figures who have been exposed as frauds who were in the business solely to make money. Their crimes, which were extremely widespread in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, were not victimless and ended up tarnishing the reputation of genuine spiritualists and investigators, still affecting the validity of paranormal research to this day.

Ep 129 - Canadian Women & Capital Punishment
Haunted Talks
08/12/22 • 34 min
Over 700 people were hanged in Canada before capital punishment was abolished in 1976. Of those, less than 2% were women. We examine the rare occasions when women were executed and the circumstances surrounding those cases. The stories range from acts of senseless violence to domestic disputes to gross miscarriages of justice to botched executions. We delve into this dark and often overlooked aspect of Canadian history.
In the episode, we mention Canada’s Official Executioner Arthur Ellis. To read more about his story and tragic downfall, check out our blog post – “Canada’s Hangman“.

Ep 78 - One Who Saw
Haunted Talks
12/27/19 • 46 min
We conclude our series of telling Victorian ghost stories with an absolute gem. A.M. Burrage's "One Who Saw" is a masterpiece of mood, atmosphere and anticipation. Late one a night, a hotel guest observes a strange and alluring figure sitting in the courtyard. Who is she? And what is her secret?
