Tripping on legends

Tripping on legends

Let's take a trip. Small town, USA. This is where the pulse of the paranormal resides. There are thousands of stories and experiences out there. Some have been told, and retold hundreds of times, and some are kept hidden, known only by the people that live there; this is where we come in. We're exploring the untold, and breaking down the overly familiar. Journeying through the one stoplight towns and discovering local urban legends, myths, lore, and paranormal episodes. Researching the backgrounds and developing the voices unheard. Our goal is not to capture evidence, but rather to capture the moment and bring our listeners along for the ride.

True crime and ghostly folklore go together like Chicago and bootlegging or guns and bullets… …and when you’re in the shadow of Ocala, no gangster can rest in peace without a ghost story. Florida’s haunted locations act as a map of unusual crime and famous villains, but there is one name that keeps coming up when you talk old time criminals and Florida phantoms. Ma Barker might be one of the lesser known names to some outsiders...

A few urban legends and a series of crimes inspire a movie, which inspire and urban legend, which then inspires another movie. In 1992 a young writer and filmmaker watched Candyman. It changed the direction of his life, like a constant nagging towards the crossroads. Now, 30 years, two careers, and many pounds later, he sits down with his young daughter to look at the lore and true stories which inspired the movie and its 2021...

It's one of those clichés that's repeated because it rings true. It was a dark night, and I was riding down this little country road at 2 in the morning. With that setup, nothing good is about to happen. Instead, hold your breath, try to stay awake, and wait for the ghost stories to write themselves. Join the Trippers, Christopher Balzano and Denna Mulhern as they look into three of the spookier road legends, as twisted a...

Once upon a time, two trippers got into a car to look into the ghostly legend of a man who screams at night, a little girl who comforts the living visiting the dead, and a wall where a witch traps children before stealing their souls. They ended up searching for the grave of a teen and rescuing a soul from a wall of coral…at least if you believe the stories. Join Christopher Balzano and Deanna Mulhearn as they hit the road on a s...

I was not always a monster, once I was somebody's muse. The world may be your canvas, what you paint on it, beware. The pen is mightier than the sword, it has no limitation. Don't refrain, this ink will stain and nothing can erase us now. In the world of haunted storytelling and urban legends, we who set the story can’t always control it. Often times the nature of a ghost is determined by the tales we tell about it. Once...

Cemeteries are supposed to be places of sorrow. They’re where we remember those who lives have been taken from us, moments mixed with memories of their lives and the sadness of their passing. In Boca Raton, there’s a mourner who goes too far, screaming his grief for the whole neighborhood to hear, even though as far as anyone can tell, he’s not actually alive.
