I Wanna Party With Bob

Welcome to the final episode in the “Ghost Stories” series! This one carries on the tradition of telling ghost stories during the Yuletide season with three tales of haunting encounters with the unknown. Grace and Vivi of The Ghosty Girlz, Pretty Fn Spooky Amanda Paulson and Craig Owens of Bizarre Los Angeles are your storytellers in this episode, plus, Ivy and Hannah of The Ghoulstrip Podcast will regale you with some ghost stories from Alcatraz. Music of the episode by Angry Snowmans with a very fitting little number, “Ebeneezer Uber Alles”. Collide provides their hauntingly lovely verison of “Haunted (When The Minutes Drag)”.

Here it is, the long-awaited series finale of the Paranormal Ponderings episodes! We’ve covered paranormal investigating and ghosts, haunted places and haunted history, witchcraft, magic and tarot, cryptids, UFOs and now, we’re going to tie ALL of them together. As much as that’s possible? Here’s a hint - maybe Bigfoot was the inspiration for Chewbacca? Maybe Bigfoot IS Chewbacca? That would be something, wouldn’t it? Well, we’ll dive into the ties that bind the paranormal together, plus religion, super heroes, myths, conciousness and the ever-elusive third eye we all might have. All subjects covered in Mike’s latest paranormal phenomenon of a book, “Stranger Than Fiction”. Which you should read. Music of the episode courtesy of the band Light Years with the spooky love song “I Met You On Halloween” (I don’t know if it’s a spooky song or not, but it sounds like it).

Ghost Stories return to the Bobcast just in time for BOBTOBER! That’s right, Bobtober. It’s like October, only better. This is just the beginning of the spooky content all month long on the Bobcast, so hop on that broom and prepare to live deliciously. Four tales of the strange, the paranormal and weird encounters with the unknown are told in this episode by four of today’s paragons of the paranormal. Katie Burr has a tale from 2010 and some high strangeness in South Pittsburg, Tennessee. Alex Matsuo tells the story of a jealous spirit that followed her home from an extended stay in the hospital. Troy Taylor talks of the Mineral Springs Hotel in Alton, Illinois and the guests that might not have ever checked out. And the FINAL DESTINATION of the episode is a VERY scary tale told by Cherise Williams of a recent paranormal investigation of the Indiana State Sanitorium. These stories will definately get you in the mood for Spooky Season(tm). Music of the episode by Vudu Sister, with the very haunting “Credite Mihi”.

What would possibly make Halloween of 2021 more GRIM than a special episode all about the Brothers Grimm? Nothing! That’s why I did it! This is what you’ll get in this episode: A brand new Celluloid Catacombs with Carolyn Mauricette, this time she’s talking all about the 2005 confusion fest of a film starring Matt Damon and Heath Ledger. This edition of The Celluloid Catacombs is brought to you by Wicked Cat Clothing, the world’s finest horror, halloween and paranoral themed clothiers. Next, we’ll take a brief look at the history of the Brothers Grimm, then the stories. Oh, the stories. We’re going to talk about a few of the Grimm stories, with commentary by the author of the Webworld Trilogy and San Diego-based filmmaker, Ben Johnson. Ben’s going to tell the basic stories, as he remembers them and I’ll come in and fill in the GORY details. Finally, I’ll read the full gloriously ghoulish tale “The Robber Bridegroom”. Body parts, wicked murderers and talking birds. Perfect for Halloween! Music of the episode by Murder By Death with their rendition of the Sam The Sham and The Pharaohs classic “Little Red Riding Hood”, plus Austrailian punk rockers Bodyjar with the song “Fairytales”.

A group of critters that live at Hollywood Forever Cemetery and heed the quacking call of “Blitzkreig Bop” at mealtime every day. No kidding. This episode must be heard to be believed!
