Stones and Bones Ep. 19 - Vienna Central Cemetery
History Goes Bump: Ghost Tours For The Mind
There are around 50 cemeteries in Vienna. Zentralfriedhof or the Vienna Central Cemetery is the largest. As a matter of fact, it's one of the largest cemeteries in all the world. There are hundreds of thousands buried here and among those number are many famous people, particularly musicians. What really caught my eye about the cemetery is that it has 330,000 graves but 3 million interments.

Ep. 633 - Chistlehurst Caves
History Goes Bump: Ghost Tours For The Mind
The name Chistlehurst Caves is a bit deceiving because this system of tunnels and caverns near London is not natural. These are man-made. They started off as chalk and flint mines and later were used for ammunition storage and then as a bomb shelter and this was even a music venue for a time, hosting the likes of Hendrix and Bowie. An entire underground city was once here. There are legends connected to the caves that include tales of Druid ceremonies and there are claims of ghosts. Join us for the history and hauntings of Chistlehurst Caves. This Month in History features the Black Monday of...

Phantasmal Crime Ep. 55 - The Beheading of Anne Boleyn
History Goes Bump: Ghost Tours For The Mind
Anne Boleyn was the second wife of Henry VIII and she probably is the wife that most people are familiar with of his six wives. She was executed, but she was innocent, so this was murder. A schism was created when Henry tried to annul his marriage to his first wife, Catherine of Aragon. The King had to wait seven years before he could marry Anne, but his love waned just three years into that marriage. He stood by as she was executed. This kind of betrayal and unjust death can lead to hauntings and in the case of Anne Boleyn, it would seem that her spirit is at unrest. Intro and Outro music:...

info_outlineVirginia City is an Old West mining town complete with a history of gun fights, explosions, brothels and mine cave-ins. The Virginia City National Landmark is one of the nation’s largest historic districts and includes over five hundred buildings dating to the time of the great bonanzas, from 1859 to 1880. John Mackay was an industrialist who formed a partnership with three other Irishmen and operated silver mines on the Comstock Lode. They hit it big in 1873 when they discovered the “Big Bonanza.” That find built Virginia City and kept it on the map for the next two centuries. On the original episode, we were joined by three listeners to share their experiences. We'll share a bit of those on this one and updates. The Washoe Club was given its own episode originally, but we are including it here to give Virginia City a complete exploration. Join us for the many haunts of Virginia City!
