The Sheboygan Sound
The Ghost Furnace Podcast
The Ghost Furnace - Episode 151 “The Sheboygan Sound” This week we cover an almost forgotten and contemporarily maligned genre of music which had the rare distinction of burning bright enough to influence Rock & Roll greats, while remaining dim enough to fly under the radar of the average listener. For those of you who have been asking us about this rise and fall of this movement, we finally have enough information together to do this story in a way that does justice to the people who lived it, and live on, if only on record players and in our dreams. If you have a story...

Dana of Black Cat Tarot
The Ghost Furnace Podcast
The Ghost Furnace - Episode 150 “Dana of Black Cat Tarot” This week we are joined by our new friend Dana of The Black Cat Tarot studio in Harmony, PA. Tarot still has a bit of a stigma to it, and even if people are lukewarm to the idea of someone reading cards, a misunderstanding of the process is common. We’ve been wanting to do a tarot centric show for awhile now but needed someone who had the experience and knowledge to do the topic justice. Dana has been kind enough to lend her knowledge, insight and experience as a tarot reader to help give everyone an baseline understanding of what...

Like many unsolved crimes in the area, and beyond, there are plenty of almost satisfying theories and threads to pull on. We talk about Dr. PA often on this show, if...

Presque Isle UFO Flap
The Ghost Furnace Podcast
The Ghost Furnace - Episode 148 "Presque Isle UFO Flap" This week, while looking for a UFO flap on Presque Isle, the picturesque peninsula state park on lake Erie, we ran across a strange story involving a UFO sighting in close proximity and timing with a reported bigfoot. Now, we've talked before about the correlation, especially during flaps of high strangeness, between sightings of hairy, upright hominids and unusual lights in the sky. We are fully aware correlation doesn't mean causation.....but.... While researching this case, we also come across another...

Groundhog Day
The Ghost Furnace Podcast
The Ghost Furnace - Episode 145 "Groundhog Day" "...Now on this February 2nd, Punxsutawney Phil, the seer of seers, the prognosticator of all prognosticators, was awakened from his wintry nap at dawn on Gobbler’s Knob..." Every year in a small Pennsylvania town, thousands of people stand for hours in the predawn cold to catch a glimpse of a 100+ year old groundhog. They are not only kept warm by the ceremonial dancing, the locally brewed beer, the VFW pancakes and the company of a secret order of marmot wranglers. But chiefly by the hope, that this small brown woodchuck will gaze into...

Paranormal Dictionary: Ghosts
The Ghost Furnace Podcast
The Ghost Furnace - Episode 144 "Paranormal Dictionary: Ghosts" We often mention how important language is when speaking about the paranormal. While delving into the strange, we use terms that can have nanny meanings and invisible nuance due to just as many factors like culture, time and which spooky domain you prefer. We also understand not everyone might read as many books, listen to as many podcasts, or simply spend time with others in this field talking about these subjects. So to help with that, this will be the first in a series which we hope to take on over the...

The Problem with Radio
The Ghost Furnace Podcast
The Ghost Furnace - Episode 143 "The Problem with Radio" On this week's episode we are joined again by our good friend Chris to touch on a few topics. After a strange coincidence Friday morning we wanted to talk about radios. These pieces of technology occupy a unique niche in our collective culture which stretches back generations. Since the early days of radio transmission, there has been an ethereal element which has lent itself to speculation in relation to the paranormal. Whether its anomalous operation, unaccounted for interference, or the spirits of the...
