Ghost Tours, Consciousness and Reptiles with Tim Nealon of Ghost City Tours

Ghost Tours, Consciousness and Reptiles with Tim Nealon of Ghost City Tours
Paranormal Conversations are random, off-the-cuff discussions on all things paranormal. On this 28th Paranormal Conversation, we are joined by entrepreneur, founder and CEO of Ghost City Tours and the host of the Ghost City Podcast, Tim Nealon. Tim has a passion and respect for history and a fascination with the paranormal and he has used this to realize his vision of a tour company with integrity and authenticity that hosts hundreds of thousands of guests every year in multiple cities across America. We discussed a variety of things including: Tim's haunted house where he has experienced frequent EVPs, disembodied voices, old-fashioned piano music, recurring shadow figures and a physical encounter with a candle. His property was part of a former plantation and lies along a route associated with Andrew Jackson’s movement during the War of 1812 and he has found historical artifacts. We talk about ghost tourism and his company Ghost City Tours and the importance of historical research, accurate storytelling, and respect for the people and communities represented on its tours. It was important for us to differentiate his national company from another national company that seems to be ruining the industry and has been facing litigation. Discussing what a ghost is takes a down a fascinating road with Tim's speculative theory that consciousness is a universal field received by the brain and that consciousness persists after death, possibly leading to some paranormal encounters. We discuss Jungian synchronicity, simulation theories, and the possibility that investigators’ attention or intent contributes to hauntings. For several years, Tim managed Old South Pittsburg Hospital and he shares some of the experiences people have had with EVPs, disembodied voices, and shadow figures. He also identified one area as having a more negative atmosphere, without labeling it demonic. Tim also shares his most intense experience, which happened at the hospital as well. It's pretty crazy! Kelly had a similar experience at the Exchange Hotel in Virginia with gunpowder smells, a copper taste, and severe tinnitus and Tim proposed that the brain may interpret unusual signals as specific sensory experiences, while acknowledging that the underlying process is not understood. And we finish up talking reptiles and we throw in a video of Kelly handling a snake in the wild getting snake bitten and all. This was a great conversation that you won't want to miss!

Maitland Gaol Redux
Maitland Gaol has a reputation of being Australia's hardest jail. For nearly thirty years the gaol has stood empty, but for 150 years this jail housed some of Australia's worst criminals. Behind the sandstone and razor-wire of this modern day tourist attraction, some of the worst brutality occurred from murders to rape and of course, suicides. Inmates claim that the cells were concrete coffins. This kind of energy and emotion usually feeds unexplained activity. Rumors of hauntings permeate the stories about the gaol.

Phantasmal Crime Ep. 60 - Did Ghost Of Teresita Basa Solve Her Murder?
The headline from the Chicago Tribune asked, "Did voice from grave finger murder suspect?" The question is startling, implying that a ghost solved a murder case. This isn't the first time that a ghost solved a murder case in America. The Greenbriar Ghost is a famous case from 1897 that many people believe actually happened. The same is true of the Teresita Basa murder case. Did her spirit inhabit the body of one of her coworkers and lead the police to her killer?

Norwich State Hospital Redux

Norwich State Hospital Redux
Norwich State Hospital in Connecticut served as a home and place of treatment for the mentally ill for a hundred years. As is the case with many old insane asylums, treatment methods were arcane and in some cases torturous. Mental illness was not understood and people were mistreated years ago. Places that harbor pain and suffering seem to capture the energy for all eternity and that energy tends to lead to supernatural activity. Have evil entities been drawn here by the painful emotions? Is the bad energy trapped within the walls of the building itself? Join us for the history and hauntings of the Norwich State Hospital.

Ep. 651 - Mont-Saint-Michel or "The Nest"
We once again were inspired to research a location that we saw on a series. This one is Mont-Saint-Michel from "The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon." The location in the series is like a safe haven for the good people, at least that is the way it appears on the surface. The castle-like main building is so beautiful and large that it seemed like it had to be a creation of CGI, so we were shocked to look it up and find that it was a real place. And when we dug a little further to see if it was haunted, sure enough, it was! Join us for the history and hauntings of France's Mont-Saint-Michel.

This building had once been a home, but for a time it was like a prison.

Not only was her rise to fame epic, but her personal life was a tale fit for the silver screen filled with torrid love affairs that included a president, drugs, scandal, tragedy, conspiracy and a mysterious death. Such a tumultuous life is hard to completely snuff out and perhaps Marilyn Monroe's spirit continues to live on in the afterlife. Not just in our memories, but as a spirit still walking among us.

Stones and Bones Ep. 21 - Lake View Cemetery
Lake View Cemetery is located in Cleveland, Ohio and is affectionately known as Cleveland's Outdoor Museum. And that is for good reason because there are thousands of beautiful trees, flowers, memorials, monuments and even a dam. During the Gilded Age, this was the cemetery to the elite. Burials continue today for anyone. Behind the iron gates lie the remains of many well known people, including a former President. And one memorial is dedicated to those lost in a tragic and deadly school fire. Intro and Outro music "Stones and Bones" was written and produced by History Goes Bump and any use is strictly prohibited. Check us out at: https://historygoesbump.com

Ep. 642 - Zener Cards, the CIA and Psychic Phenomenon
Anyone who has followed and listened to History Goes Bump for any amount of time knows that we consider ourselves open-minded skeptics when it comes to paranormal activity. Particularly the kind of activity connected to psychics. When science gets involved in the paranormal, it lends it some credibility. Parapsychology became a part of college curriculum and at that same time, scientists and government agencies also started paying attention to psychic phenomenon. Intelligence organizations even tried to use it to spy on other countries. On this episode, we are going to look at one of the main tools used to test psi abilities - Zener Cards - and wind our way through the history of parapsychology and some of the famous names connected to this and operations like Project Stargate. The Moment in Oddity features a 1986 Concept Car.

Phantasmal Crime Ep. 57 - Death in the Judd White House
In 2025, the Michigan Bell Building in Grand Rapids, Michigan sold for over $18 million to a New York investment firm. This eight-story office building is home to AT&T today and while a 101-year-old historic building in downtown Grand Rapids is interesting, it is the murder that occurred at the home that once stood on this site before the building was here, that makes this site intriguing and haunted. The Judd White House stood here and was the scene of a murder-suicide with a wooden leg as a possible weapon.
