ParaBabble

150: We Have Solved Everything

That's it. After 150 episodes of ParaBabble, we have officially solved every paranormal mystery out there. There's nothing left for us to do. 

Paranormal Conventions

Now that we are retired from paranormal investigations, we decided to reflect back on one of the stranger parts of that world- paranormal conventions. Hear some stories about the weird places we ended up in and the paranormal celebrities we've met. Some of these stories we never would have told during our active years, it would cause some serious para-drama!

Fresno Night Crawlers

On this episode of ParaBabble, we research the strange phenomenon known as the Fresno Night Crawlers. Are they aliens? Some strange unidentified creature? Maybe they're just pants? Find out on this episode! 

Mothman in Chicago

In the windy city lights he roams. With wings of night he's all alone. Mothman's out with tales to tell. Chicago nights he's everywhere! 
Mothman takes over another episode of ParaBabble with his recent come back attempt in Chicago!  

Ghost Hunting Techniques

Once again going into our days of ghost hunting, on this episode we discuss some of the techniques and methods we used during investigations. This was of course all before Rob retired, but it doesn't seem like much has changed! You never know when the ParaBabble crew will be pulled back into the strange world of the paranormal.

Close Encounters of the Cryptid Kind

On this episode, we're each bringing several stories of first hand accounts from people who had encounters with strange cryptid creatures. It's always fun to learn about new cryptids, but it's even more fun to run into them!

Men In Black

In another episode that might be the end of the show because we get ourselves into trouble, the ParaBabble team finally digs into the real story of the Men In Black. No, we don't mean Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones. We're talking about the creepy men in black who may or may not be human that have been terrorizing UFO witnesses for decades (and perhaps longer)! If any MIB is listening, please do not visit us.

Spidey Senses

Back before we retired as paranormal investigators and decided to podcast for 5 people, we had a method of spiritual communication that we referred to as our "Spidey senses". It was the method of opening yourself up for communication using old school methods and no technology. Your senses were the tools. The ParaBabble team has always been split down the middle between more spiritual and scientific. Hear about it from both sides!

The Welsh Triangle

No longer being held to the will of AI, ParaBabble is back with another weird triangle. We aren't quite sure why paranormal happenings seem to form triangular shapes, but here we are again in Whales this time. Back in the 1970s, there were countless reports of UFOs and strange alien creatures. We're going to get to the bottom of this Welsh case... or at least as far to the bottom as we can get without having the men in black come visit us.

Winchester Mystery House

This week Parababble cracks open the Winchester Mystery House! Hidden doors, ghost whispers, and a rifle heiress on a building spree – haunted or eccentric? Was Sarah Winchester endlessly building a house to confuse the spirits that haunted her or was she just having fun building stuff with her endless fortune? We try to solve the mystery! 

Debatable Christmas Movies

This Christmas, Parababble throws on the tinsel and tackles the ultimate yuletide debate: what even defines a Christmas movie? Is it jolly carols and heartwarming reunions, or explosions in Nakatomi and homicidal mogwais? Join us as we dissect festive outliers like Die Hard, Gremlins, and Edward Scissorhands, armed with eggnog, candy canes, and hot takes hotter than a gingerbread house on fire. It's the Parababble Christmas Movie Court – prepare to argue!
 

Fun Christmas Traditions

Ho-Ho-Hold on to your stockings, folks! This week on Parababble, we're unwrapping a side of Christmas that's far from holly jolly. We're diving headfirst into the dark and gruesome underbelly of festive folklore, where naughty kids aren't just getting coal... they might be getting cooked in a stew!
Forget sugar plum fairies and reindeer games, we're talking about Grýla, the Icelandic troll who feasts on disobedient children, and Frau Perchta, who disembowels the lazy and fills their stomachs with garbage. It's a yuletide yarn spun with nightmares and goosebumps, but fear not! We'll be doing our best to keep things light, even when discussing the gruesome details.
So, grab your eggnog and spiked cocoa, because this holiday season, we're about to turn the "merry" in Christmas into "merry macrabe." Join us for an episode that's guaranteed to leave you both horrified and strangely entertained. It's Parababble, and this time, we're serving up your holiday with a side of monsters and murder.

Extreme Haunted Houses

It's the perfect time of the year to talk about haunted houses! Not really, but we're weird at ParaBabble so we figured the week everyone starts going crazy with Christmas stuff would be the perfect time to talk about haunted houses that double as torture chambers.

Pig Hill

From the legendary Pig Hill pig creatures of Meadville, PA, to their swamp-dwelling cousins, the Squallies of the Florida Everglades, we'll uncover the truth behind these enigmatic beings... maybe. Listen in and start questioning everything you thought you knew about the world. Just don't blame us if you start seeing pigs everywhere.

The Demon House

Want to take a trip to Gary, Indiana to visit the Demon House!? Sorry, they demolished it. We aren't sure where the 200 demons living there relocated to, but we try our best to figure out what really went down at that house before it was destroyed. Also, Alison tries to convince Rob that he should become a "real" demonologist just in time for Halloween. 

The Exorcisms of Anneliese Michel

Once again, the ParaBabble team take a look at the true story behind a horror movie that claims the events they depicted actually took place. This time the movie is "The Exorcism of Emily Rose". The real "Emily Rose" was a girl from Bavaria who had to endure 67 exorcisms. Was it demons or a case of misdiagnosed mental health combined with ridiculous religious beliefs? 

The Simpsons Predict the Future

On this episode of ParaBabble, we're talking about how The Simpsons has been eerily accurate in predicting the future. Maybe the writers are psychic, or maybe they're freemasons or part of the illuminati. Either way, it's amazing how often they've been right. Forget Nostradamus, the Simpsons, have been much more specific in their predictions.

Aliens Are Real Now!

There was a Congress hearing at the end of July where several respectable people in the government and military testified that aliens and UFO's (or UAP's as they're referred to now) are real. Why isn't anyone talking about this?

The Curse of Lake Lanier

Down in Georgia, there's a lake where an unusual number of deaths have occurred. It turns out that Lake Lanier might just be the most cursed and most racist lake in the world!

The Zodiac Killings Solved?

We don't know why more people aren't talking about it, but there's a group that believes the Zodiac killer has been identified. But is it for real this time?

Spirit Boxes & Other Paranormal Toys with Joe Pieri

Alison and Rob stop by local paranormal shop, Paranormal Oddities, to talk with owner Joe Pieri about the current state of spirit boxes, ghost hunting equipment, and the general state of the paranormal world today. Listen close for any extra guests since this was recorded in a haunted location! 
 
Paranormal Oddities is located at 5823 Transit Rd in Depew, NY.

Unsolved Serial Killers: The Alphabet Killer

In this episode, we explore the case of the Alphabet Killer, a serial killer who terrorized Rochester, NY in the early 1970s. The killer's victims were all young girls, and their last names all began with the same letter as their first name.

The Amityville Horror

In this episode of ParaBabble, we explore the case of the Amityville Haunting, one of the most famous paranormal cases in American history. In 1974, Ronald DeFeo Jr. murdered his parents and four siblings in their home in Amityville, New York. The Lutz family moved into the house a few months later, but they only lasted 28 days before fleeing, claiming to be terrorized by paranormal activity.
We'll discuss the details of the murders, the Lutz family's experiences, and the theories about what might have happened in the Amityville house. 
This episode is perfect for fans of true crime, paranormal investigation, and the unexplained. It's a chilling look at one of the most famous hauntings in American history.

Unsolved Serial Killers: The River City Ripper

In this episode, we explore the case of the River City Ripper, a serial killer who terrorized the city of Little Rock, Arkansas in 2020 and 2021. The Ripper was never caught, and his identity remains a mystery to this day.
We'll discuss the details of the murders, the investigation, and the theories about who the Ripper might have been. 
This episode is perfect for fans of true crime and mystery. It's a chilling look at one of the most notorious unsolved cases in Arkansas history.

The Buffalo History Museum

The Buffalo History Museum is a large, historic building that has been around for over 100 years. It is said to be haunted by a number of ghosts, including a former curator.
We have had a number of strange experiences at the museum, including catching apparitions on video, hearing disembodied voices, and seeing shadow people. We share some of our stories and EVP's in this episode, and we also discuss some of the theories about the ghosts that are said to haunt the museum.

The Real Exorcist

The Exorcist is one of the scariest movies ever made, but did you know it's based on a true story? In 1949, a 14-year-old boy named Roland Doe was allegedly possessed by a demon. His family called in a priest to perform an exorcism, and the process lasted for over a year. The story of Roland Doe's possession was eventually published in a book, which was later adapted into the movie.
In this episode of ParaBabble, we explore the true story behind The Exorcist. We talk about the events that inspired the movie, and are amazed by how many similarities made it to the screen that no one really talks about.
Join us for this fascinating and terrifying look at one of the most famous horror movies of all time.

The Villisca Ax Murder House

In the 1910's, ax murdering was in. Maybe the most famous incident of this occurred in Villisca, IA where 2 adults and 6 children were killed. The murderer was never caught, but today you can spend the night in this house yourself and see if any spirits urge you to stab yourself. Or maybe not. We go over our theories about the suspects and even a possible unsolved serial killer case!

ZoZo The Ouija Board Demon

There's a demon haunting users of Ouija Boards who goes by the name of ZoZo. For some reason he hangs around a lot in Oklahoma too.

There's a ghost hanging around rural Ridgeway, Wisconsin that has been racking up a body count since the late 1800's. 

119: Haunted Bars

Our special guest Doug Carlsen from Liquid Art Mixology is back to talk about Haunted Bars! Why do ghosts haunt bars? Is it due to past trauma at these locations or do they just want easy access to liquor? 

118: Paranormal Mixer

ParaBabble brings in the new year kind of late with a special Paranormal Mixer episode. We talk about the use and influence of alcohol in religions and rituals with special guest Doug Carlsen from Liquid Art Mixology!

117: The Jersey Devil

Another classic crypto creature checked off the list over 100 episodes in. What is the origin of the Jersey Devil? How many and how often is it sighted? Also, just what the hell is it? 

116: 28 Days Haunted

Alison and Rob watch the new Netflix series 28 Days Haunted. It has everything from ghosts to demonic possession to unsolved serial murders. The idea is to continuously investigate a haunted location for 28 straight days. This one is a lot and one member of the ParaBabble crew isn't having any of it. Who knows, by the end of the episode someone might even get possessed and then turn into Ironman.

115: Pope Lick Monster

Lurking somewhere in the woods near Louisville, Kentucky, there is a large half goat, half sheep, half human (math?) demon creature that will murder you. Or it might just be a train on a danger 90+ foot high trestle. It's probably the train.

114: School is Closed due to Demonic Possession

Do you remember waking up early to watch the news and waiting for your school's name to show up in the list of closing for that day because there were too many demons possessing students that week? No? Then you probably didn't go to school in Malaysia because that's what happens there.

113: The Kirtland Melonheads

Somewhere in the woods of Kirtland, Ohio you will find the Melonheads. Strange humanoid beings (or ghosts) with absurdly large heads who will find you and kill you and possibly eat you. Or maybe they'll just leave you alone because they are docile and harmless. No one really knows and neither do we.

112: The Knickerbocker Hotel

Continuing the spooky season, we re-visit one of the earliest places we investigated. Alison, Cheryl, and Rob talk about the many experiences they had at the haunted Knickerbocker Hotel in Pennsylvania. The Knick has it all. Pet the ghost cat while you get lost in the weird time dimensional portal before heading across the street to the local bar for a drink. Be sure to listen close when we play some EVP's!

111: The Haunting at Lackawanna Library

For our favorite time of the year, we recruited special guest Cheryl from Paranormal Researchers of Niagara and Erie to look back on one of our favorite haunted locations- the Lackawanna Library! Be sure to get your headphones out to listen to some of the EVP's we caught from this location!

110: The Loch Ness Monster

Somehow we've gone 109 episodes without dedicating a show to one of the all time classic crytos - Nessie! Inspired by some recent fossil findings, the team tries to finally get to the bottom of the Loch Ness Monster mystery. Is it just a kid's toy framed right in bad pictures or is there really a prehistoric giant lizard beast lurking deep in the muddy loch?!

109: Japanese Folklore - The Yokai

Inspired by all of the random bathrooms and rocks that they've already talked about from Japan that host demons, Alison and Rob branch out to research the Yokai- a large group of supernatural entities. Some of them are harmless. Others will not hesitate to murder you.

108: Saint Parts (”Holy Relics”)

What's the difference between Catholic churches with holy relics and Jefferey Dahmer's apartment? Jeffery Dahmer knew exactly who his severed human remains belonged to.

107: Ghosts of Flight 401

After over 100 episodes it's hard to find something none of us have heard about before, but this ghost story about a crashed plane from the 70's is one of them. In 1972 Flight 401 crashed in the Florida everglades. 101 people died including the Captain and one of the engineers, but that didn't stop them from making appearances on other flights after that!

106: Japanese Demon Stone

The gang head back to Japan (not literally of course) to discuss the recent events surrounding a broken stone that may have just unleashed a demonic 9 tailed fox. Please e-mail us at Parababblepodcast@gmail.com if anyone happens to see it.

105: Pigman Road

The ParaBabble crew begin a random discussion about an infamous local haunt- Pigman Road in Angola, NY! Legends say a butcher went crazy there, put on a pig mask, and started murdering people. There is of course no evidence of this, but that doesn't stop drunk kids from checking it out every weekend. To add some legit paranormal rumors to the area, it was also the site of a deadly train crash in the 19th century.

104: Satan is My Uncle

Jeff thought it would be cool to do a spooky dark episode titled "Satan is My Uncle" to talk about all things regarding the demonic king. Instead, the other members of ParaBabble just ended up very seriously considering joining the Satantic Temple. 

103: Seance

Just in time for Halloween the team breaks down what is considered a "Seance" and the many methods that are used to conduct them. How much is real? How much is just regurgitated cheese cloth? You'll have to listen to find out!

102: Moldavite Ruined This Podcast

What is this mysterious green space rock? It's not kryptonite and it's not an infinity stone, but everyone on YouTube and TikTok are claiming that it is ruining their lives. How credible is it? We don't know. It's too expensive.

101: Cannock Chase

There's a place in England that is home to ghosts, black-eyed kids, aliens, giant serpents, Pig Men, serial killers, and black panthers. Also; for some reason, Jeff still doesn't believe in werewolves.
