Mel collects Latin American and Caribbean paranormal stories. As a first generation Cuban American, she's no stranger to Lucumí and Santería practitioners warning of spirits in her family's home. But when she comes face to face with angry ghosts in her own space, she's found ways to make them go away. We're excited to bring on Mel Trahan of ¡Ay Ghost Mio! on this episode.

Near the Giant's Causeway in Northern Ireland sits a delightful collection of buildings known as Ballylough. You can book a room in the bed and breakfast, you can wander the grounds and gaze upon the ruins of an ancient castle, and you can bump into many, many ghosts upon the grounds. Listen as our co-host Becky tells of the ghosts she and her family encountered in this countryside manor one dark and spooky night.

Creaking doors, creaking floors, and the feeling that you’re being watched may make you think you have a ghost in your home, but what would really convince you? What would it take to make you sit up and say “yes, this place is definitely haunted.”

Our guest today (Sarah Jinee Park) could almost dismiss all the signs of her haunted home until she saw something unforgettable. And you won’t be able to forget about it, either, after you hear her story.

Listen to her tell you all about it. Today, on Homespun Haints.

To learn more about Sarah, visit her website at sarahjineepark.com, follow Mochi Magazine on Instagram at instagram.com/mochimagofficial, or read her short story The Kumiho's Song in Truancy Magazine
