episode 10 - 9_22_24, 4.53 PM

Elizabeth: [00:00:00] After months of sweltering heat, you finally feel the first cool breeze of fall on your skin. The leaves are beginning their transformation from lush greens to deep oranges and browns. You've been dreaming of swapping your iced drinks for something warm and cozy, like the first sip of a pumpkin flavored coffee.

But now that the air has chilled and spooky season is drawing near, you're faced with a thrilling question. How will you make the most of the season? Will you wander through a pumpkin patch by moonlight? Brave the terrors of a haunted house or perhaps embark on a spine tingling ghost tour. Wonder no more.

In this episode we step beyond the shadowy waters of Lake Lanier and travel to other haunted corners of the country where the supernatural beckons from ghost tours, like our very own Lanier ghost tours to chilling attractions in cities near you. Where will you find your next scare? Dive in with us. [00:01:00] 

All right, everybody,  welcome to Spirits Uncorked.

I am Elizabeth.

Erica: And I'm Erica, and thank you for joining us on this brisk evening. We're going to be going beyond Lake Lanier, and we're going to be talking about some local haunted attractions that might be near you.

Elizabeth: Is it brisk where you are, Erica?
Erica: It has been getting down to the 50s and 60s. There was one night it got down to the upper 40s.

I had to get a coat. 

Elizabeth: Today was beautiful. It was like in the upper 80s, sunshine. So I'm in Atlanta, Eric is in DC, so we're in slightly different climates, but the seasons are changing. So. 

Erica: I think for most people, it's still probably warm out. So whatever this warm evening. [00:02:00]

Elizabeth: So the first thing that we do before we talk about any of that, first, we have to pour ourself a glass of wine.

And Erica, what is it that you are drinking this evening? 

Erica: I am drinking a bottle of Las Perdizas from 

Elizabeth: Same thing you had last week?

EricaYep.

ElizabethOkay. You like it? 

Erica: I do like it, but I went to this, oh, I think I talked about it last week too, but I'm going to go back to that little wine shop and get some other stuff.

Elizabeth: I am drinking, this is very interesting, it's Renegade Lemonade. That's what it's called. It's lemon wine. It's lemon wine. I'll read the back. Alright, in 2020, these two people with a passion for wine and a lot of time on their hands set out to do the unimaginable, turn lemons into wine. 

Erica: I've had blueberry wine in South Korea.

Elizabeth: It's very good. It's very refreshing. It's [00:03:00] very bold. The only thing is it's so, yummy that you kind of forget that it's wine. And so you just have to remember sip it. Yeah. It's not juice.

Erica: Is it sweet?

Elizabeth: It is a little bit sweet, but I mean, it's like lemonade. I mean, it's sweet and it's tart, but it's wine.

So it's, it's a very interesting mix of flavors but. I like it a lot. 

Erica: Oh, it sounds interesting. Yeah. I've had apple wine before too. 

Elizabeth: Yeah, I've had some other kinds too, but I've never had lemon wine. 

Erica: Yeah, I've not even seen that before. Well, cheers. 

Elizabeth: Yeah, cheers. Oh, Erica, wait, don't take a drink yet. I'm going to make a toast.

Because this episode is our 10th episode.

Erica: Woo!

Elizabeth: So here's, cheers to our 10th episode. Cheers! We're really sticking with 

Elizabeth: it. I know, who would ever [00:04:00] thought that we could follow through? I know. 

Erica: We're doing really good so far. 

Elizabeth: Alright, so, now that fall is upon us, we decided We would talk about some of the haunted things to do in other cities.

So the way that we decided which cities we were going to talk about was I looked at our stats for our podcast and we just went with the top five cities of, wait, what am I trying to say? The top five cities where our most subscribers to our podcast. So, not surprisingly, number one is the Atlanta area.

Elizabeth: Lots to do in Atlanta. And some of them, Erica, you have done with me. 

Erica: Yeah. 

Elizabeth: Do you remember when we went to It's like the most famous haunted house here every Halloween. It's called Netherworld. You went to that with me. Do you remember that?

Erica: Vaguely.

Elizabeth: There was four of us, and it was a haunted house. 

Erica: I do [00:05:00] remember, because you were screaming and you were making me go first.

Elizabeth: Yeah, that sounds right. 

Erica: I remember that part. 

Elizabeth: The only thing I remember is that they, they really freaked you out beforehand because I remember people saying, Oh, they're, they're allowed to touch you on this tour. 

Erica: Oh, yeah, 

Elizabeth: that's what I was afraid of. I, but nobody did. I mean, I don't see how that would be allowed.

Erica: Well, we didn't sign like a waiver that allowed them to touch us. So 

Elizabeth: yeah. Okay. But that's what I was bracing for. And then I also remember, I remember standing in line and there was like a grown man dressed as a really freaky doll and just coming up like really close to your face and Oh, that was 

Erica: a lot of places do that.

Elizabeth: Yeah. So that is a big deal here around Halloween. And you and I have done that. It's been a good while though. It's probably been nine years. So, some of the other [00:06:00] cool things, I mean, this area just has so much. We went on a walking ghost tour of downtown Atlanta recently and it's fun. We took the kids and we walked like just to several famous locations, including the Fox Theater.

Which is like a historical theater here, and you know, you just hear stories. I like doing walking ghost tours, and it's not scary. Of course, there's Stone Mountain here, which is a huge tourist attraction, and they have a pumpkin festival every year. Oh, I know. Have you ever done an escape room? A couple of times.

Erica: Oh, you have? Yeah. They're really fun. Have you not done one? 

Elizabeth: I've never done one. 

Erica: Yeah. When they opened up one in Lincoln, I actually had never heard of it before, but I think it's when they started to get really popular. And I want to say I was probably in my mid twenties. So I [00:07:00] went with a couple of friends twice.

I think I did a double date there once and then. 

Elizabeth: How did the double date go? That's what we were wondering. 

Erica: Well, I ended up marrying that person. 

Elizabeth: Did you? That's who it was? now the ex? Yes. 

Erica: I mean, I, like I said, this was like probably when I was in my early to mid twenties. So yeah. 

Elizabeth: That's funny.

Moving on. So, and then of course, if you're in the Atlanta area, obviously I'm gonna, you have to come on Linear Ghost Tours because it's the only one that you can do on a boat. The weather's beautiful, you know, all through October. It's a great time to be on a boat. And, you know, you get to see some of these places that we've talked 53 Bridge.

And, you know, we go over, Oscarville and all of these different things. So it's a, it's very interesting. It's a lot of fun. It's [00:08:00] family friendly, but mostly it's just, it's just a good time on a boat. So that's one you should definitely do. And we have a 10 percent off promo code at checkout, put in LGT, Halloween things, exclamation, and you'll get 10 percent off though.

In this area too, they've got a ghost train, which I think that would be fun to go on a train ride, like a haunted train ride. Pine Mountain Gold Museum ghost train. That sounds pretty cool. I would do that. 

Erica: That would be really fun. It'd be fun to be on a train and do like a whodunit kind of thing. 

Elizabeth: Yeah, we did one of those in Colorado.

a long, long time ago. It's like a murder mystery. 

Erica: I hadn't thought so. Yeah. 

Elizabeth: Yeah. They're fun. The next largest city of our podcast subscribers is guess 

Erica: Nebraska, Nebraska. [00:09:00] So, I mean, I've done like almost everything there, but Well, I have a good story. It's kind of embarrassing for our nephews though, but I remember I took, I took our nephews our two oldest ones to, it was Roka scary farm.

And that was pretty legit. They have five different haunted houses. They have bonfires. They have like little mazes you can go through and then you can also do like kind of, A hayrack ride around the whole thing. And they did they did it up. It was really fun. But they have scary clowns walking around that get all in your face.

And I can't remember how old the boys were. Poor little thing. He just does not like ghosts. Or, I'm sorry, clowns. And so when they were getting up in his face, he actually took off running across the park. Oh, no. And I'm looking at Ethan, and Ethan's Eh, he'll be fine. [00:10:00] And I was like, No, I'm responsible for your lives right now.

I was like, You stay right here. Let people pass you in line. Just stay in this exact spot. And then I'm running after Zach, and I'm like, Zach! And he was booking it and we were teasing him, but I didn't realize how serious it was. Like when he was like, no, I can't stay here. I can't do any of the haunted houses.

I was like, Oh, that was that Roka. 

Elizabeth: Okay. So Roka Berry farms. That's the big one in the Lincoln area. One of the big ones. What's the other one called? 

Erica: So this one, I think it's in between, I have to look. It's in a small town. So, you know, small town, Nebraska, creepy anyway, it was, it was called Museum of Shadows.

And so, yeah, you do a tour and then you can, Do you like an [00:11:00] extra add on where you go into the basement and like communicate with the ghosts? But they have the most haunted artifacts in the midwest. That's their thing. So they have like they have a doll that's behind a case gives you annabelle vibes And I think her name is like Ada or something and they have a camera on her 24 7 and they just do a live feed and there's times where she's moving and, you know, it's so creepy.

But what made it particularly weird for me is I can get into it. Okay. It's like a Haunted Doll. That's fun. I've not really seen anything. I don't know. Truly haunted before what they were saying, but then there was people who come and see this doll Every weekend. They have a membership and they were like bringing her things and like Talking to her like they knew her and [00:12:00] I was like That is the thing that sent me.

I was like okay. So people like come here regularly and this is an actual thing. The workers knew some of the people on the tour. They just show up. And it's funny because it's like super haunted with all these haunted artifacts. A lot of the things are behind glass or behind something, you know, but then in the gift shop, they had Kylie lip kits when they had all been sold, sold out Kylie Jenner and yeah, this must have been like 2016 because I guess Kylie Jenner likes haunted things and she had donated a ton of money to them and then sent them a bunch of lip kits.

Elizabeth: That's funny. 

Erica: I was like, wow, random. So just from the get go, we like walk through the gift shop. It's highly lip kits. And then you walk around and you can like, look at the haunted things. There's some things you're allowed [00:13:00] to touch, some things you're not allowed to touch. And then in the back room, there's Ada, the doll.

And I mean, people are literally getting as close as they can and staring at her to see if she'll blink or Oh my gosh, 

Elizabeth: that would, that would start to Yeah, 

Erica: the doll itself was not scaring me, but I'm watching these people. I'm like, this is a little bit cultish. I don't know. And then we did do the add on.

You go down to the basement and they have these flashlights where they twist to turn on and off, you know? And I guess. They set them down, call out to the spirits. I can't remember the story of what happened in the basement. There was a murder. There was something bad that happened there. And then these flashlights turn on and off as like they answer.

And they're like, it's the energetic pull, you know, a lot of things we've talked about. But then I looked it up online and when you use those kind of [00:14:00] flashlights, it's like the level of heat that they have. So they can heat up and then it'll actually expand inside and it'll turn a little bit and off. And when it cools, it might constrict.

But we did all this talking to the ghost, talking to spirits. And I was like, this just doesn't feel, to me it didn't feel very authentic. But I think the doll thing is what made me like, it was weird. It was definitely creepy though. You could buy into it. And it would, and if you're scared of things like that, you would definitely.

Be scared. So, I mean, that's a spot to check out. And then it's creepy because you're in the middle of nowhere and you got to drive 30 minutes to get back to town. 

Elizabeth: Yeah, it's like on the outside of Omaha, it looks well, anything 

Erica: else in Nebraska?

There is, I can't remember the name of it, a manor that's in Omaha. And it's [00:15:00] really fun because you go through the whole house And this is the one where a guy chases you with a chainsaw. Oh my gosh. Yeah. No. So you go through this whole house and it's, it's like off kilter. So the floors are uneven.

You actually kind of feel like you're in a fun house a little bit. And there's a murder. They do kind of do a little narrative as you're walking through the house. And then there's somebody out there waiting for you with a chainsaw. I've gone a couple of times. Oh, no, we closed it permanently. Oh, that's so sad.

It was really fun. Yeah. Well, sorry, everybody. You can't go to that one. But I think anybody who lives in Omaha has probably heard of it and maybe gone to it. 

Elizabeth: Yeah, 

Erica: because it was really popular for a [00:16:00] while. And then Eagle Raceway, okay, out in Eagle, Nebraska, there's like a racetrack and every year for Halloween, so on the outskirts of it, they have a little setup, they have I think two small haunted houses and then a little area for you to eat, but then you get in line and on the actual raceway, And this is legitimate, because I've gone, I think, two or three times.

They put you in a school bus, and it's got this huge engine in it, and it's this isn't even scary haunted scary, this is just reckless. And they drive around the whole racetrack. And they're going so fast that you can literally feel the bus like tilting on and off its wheels. It is actually so scary.

And people are like screaming. 

Elizabeth: That sounds like a lawsuit waiting to happen. 

Erica: I know. I can't believe it. But they really were so [00:17:00] reckless. Like it wasn't a joke. One of my favorite things to do, because I had two roommates who are my best friends in college. And we all lived, well, obviously we were roommates.

So. Sometimes if we weren't really doing anything, I would just be like, everybody get in the car. I would drive them out to Weeping Water, Nebraska, and they have a haunted bridge that a witch stands on where she murdered children. I couldn't find any actual like deaths, but that's the, the lore. And then the cemetery is haunted.

And the very last time we went We're all skeptics, but it's fun and we want to creep ourselves out. And it's like midnight, maybe 1 a. m. Me and my friend. So one or no, two of them stayed at the car and then it was me and another girl. And we were in this cemetery alone, looking at the gravestones. We just wanted to see which ones were really old.

And we were just staying together and it's [00:18:00] like cold and creepy. And we got really quiet. And we could hear a girl talking like she was right next to us, but it was like she was talking to somebody else and we literally looked at each other and we were like and then we ran back to the car as fast as we could.

And both of our other friends were standing at the car and we were like, did you see anybody else? Was there anybody else? And both of us swear up and down that we heard the same thing at the same time and we were so scared. 

Elizabeth: Huh. Well, lots of creepy stuff in Nebraska, I guess. So guess where our third largest listener, I guess, listener base is.

Do you have a guess? 

Erica: I looked at it. I wish I could say Virginia, but I know it's not. 

Elizabeth: It actually is. You have to go to the overall downloads. So overall, it's like Roanoke, Virginia. Oh, really? Yeah. I don't [00:19:00] know, but there's a lot of, that's, that's like the third largest area. So I googled Roanoke, Virginia, not, not North Carolina, because we know about Roanoke, North Carolina, but Roanoke, Virginia, it's a place where it's haunted by colonial ghosts, you know?

Erica: Yeah. Of course. 

Elizabeth: And it's at one time it was plagued by the woman in black. So like in the early 1900s, there was a woman in black and she would appear out of nowhere and she would flirt and ha ha ha ha. It says that strong men trembled when her name was spoken and children cried and clung to their mother's dresses.

She just terrorized the town. 

Erica: Okay. 

Elizabeth: The woman in black. So that's, that's one of the big urban legends there. Okay. 

Erica: They don't know where she came from? I've never heard of that either. 

Elizabeth: No one knew her name or why she was in Roanoke, though she never physically hurt anyone. The way the woman would unexpectedly appear then suddenly vanish [00:20:00] was enough to strike fear in even the boldest of hearts.

She was strikingly beautiful with dancing eyes and a black turban that hid most of her face. I guess she just, she just terrorized the town for a while. Now, when I saw Roanoke, I thought Roanoke, North Carolina, and that makes sense. Yeah. That's the, that's where the lost colony of Roanoke. 

Erica: Yeah. 

Elizabeth: Remember?  

Erica: I always loved that story.

Well, there was a captain who, I guess he was like the mayor or whatever. And then he left his family to go bring another ship. And when they came back, they were all 

Elizabeth: gone. It was founded in 1585. The colonists inexplicably, inexplicably disappeared. And that, that's it. There's no explanation. They just a whole colony just vanished.

It was one of the very first British English settlements in North Carolina. 

Erica: I think they were [00:21:00] also feeling like the natives in the area were not particularly aggressive towards them. And so they didn't even feel like they could blame the natives there. Yeah, I remember them being like, it's such a mystery because it's not like there was a plague of dead bodies.

They were just, I mean, they probably got abducted by aliens. Yeah, 

Elizabeth: I mean you could pretty much go anywhere with it. There was over a hundred and twenty colonists. They, they, they didn't find their remains. They just, there was just no account of what happened to them. They just disappeared. So that, that one, I can understand that's pretty weird, pretty haunted.

The most haunted place that I have ever been would have been Savannah. And I hear this from a lot of people, Savannah, the if you go on a ghost walking tour of Savannah, you get a weird, you get a weird vibe. And we got a weird vibe because that's where they had, you know, the typhoid fever epidemics and [00:22:00] all that.

And so all of these people were dying from fever, and then they were just buried in mass graves. So in Savannah, in 1820, 666 people, so 666, died from yellow fever. And then they're, most of them were just buried in unmarked graves, in mass graves. And so a lot of the local people, when they're gardening in their front yard, they will dig up like a human bone.

One lady found a skull in her garden. And A skull, a human skull. It's crazy. I hear a lot of people like they take photos and they see the orbs, just like I have a picture of the orbs. Yeah. You know, right above a mass grave. And so that place is crazy, but it's beautiful. I love Savannah. 

Erica: I'm trying to remember where we went one time.

I think this was after you were at Fort Benning and we stopped at one of those cemeteries that had the bells. Because [00:23:00] the plague that they had kind of puts you in a coma and they were accidentally burying people. And I remember just being like We're not dead. Yeah, not dead. And I think I sent you a thing on TikTok.

There was one guy who was so afraid of being buried alive that he actually has a window from his casket to the surface and he had a bell. And now it's, it's, you know, so overgrown and there's so much water and all of that. But that is actually so creepy. Yeah. 

Elizabeth: Can you imagine, because you know that there have been people buried alive on accident, can you, I mean, my gosh, I just, ugh.

Erica: No, I can't think about that. 

Elizabeth: And so yeah, so they would put bells in the casket just in case they woke up and they could be like, hey, I'm down here. 

Erica: Oh my god, I would actually have a heart attack. heart attack if I heard one of those bells go off. I know. Or even just back then, knowing that that's a [00:24:00] possibility, I would as a little colonial girl, I'd be like, holy cow, I'm, soul left my body, 

Elizabeth: yeah. So the the next city, the fourth largest area of our podcast subscribers, well, the next two are New Orleans and then Charlotte, North Carolina. So I'm sure New Orleans would be a great. City to be in. There are like 

Erica: a thousand things I want to do there. 

Elizabeth: Yes. Tons of like haunted restaurants, hotels, inns.

There's an inn called the Herman Grimma House, I don't know how you say that, but it's said to be filled with pleasant, friendly southern ghosts. So if you don't want to go to a terrifying ghost house, go to Herman Grimma House and then you'll have just like friendly southern people. Haunting you.

Erica: Yeah, so this one is called LaLaurie Mansion, and it says, In the spring of 1834, [00:25:00] LaLaurie Mansion was set ablaze, so they must have put something there, because I'm not sure what I'm thinking of now. It revealed the horrific living conditions of a number of slaves who were being tortured, starved, and beaten.

My heavens. No, it was hor Well, okay, I mean, I didn't even know it existed until the American Horror Story season, but I mean, obviously that's exaggerated, but it, it made me look it up and I was like, oh my gosh, actually so horrible. So, oh, it says soon after the fire, the house was converted into an apartment complex and a tenant was murdered.

It was an unusual murder. There was lots of paranormal activity. And then it was also an all girls school, and there was all kinds of bizarre and random physical assaults. It just, it's an iconic landmark there now. 

Elizabeth: Also in New Orleans, the Andrew [00:26:00] Jackson Hotel. That's, if you go there, the ghosts are said to be pretty interactive.

So, if you want some, 

Erica:  Andrew Jackson? he was the president who signed off on the Yeah, he's my least favorite. Right. The Trail of 

Elizabeth: Tears. Right. And then Marie Laveau, she was a voodoo queen, and her house is there, so she's there to do, and she, it said that her spirit is still there, conducting voodoo ceremonies.

Now, okay, let's take a quick look at Charlotte. Here's some of the top haunted places in Charlotte. Fire station number four, from 1925. A firefighter in 1934 by the name of Pruitt Black headed out in response to a call, but when he tried to slide down the fire pole, he became tangled in his heavy bunker pants and fell through the hole instead.

Pruitt fractured his skull and died on impact. Oh my gosh. His ghost reportedly still haunts the building to this day, and visitors from the museum claim to have seen his cigar smoke hanging in the air. [00:27:00] So 

Erica: he's just like haunting the place and smoking cigars? Yeah, I mean that doesn't sound so bad. It's a rough way to to die though.

Elizabeth: That is rough. Geez There's a quiet residential neighborhood called Elizabeth within walking distance of Independence Park complete with ice cream shops and local bars Many of the old houses in the neighborhood are said to harbor spirit and accounts include a shadowy man in a top hat standing at the stairs 

Erica: Have you ever seen the man in the hat?

No. The man in the hat lives in the corner of my eye, for real. I have, I remember, no that's a thing that people like say all the time, like they see a shadow or like when you're a kid, you'll like just see like this shadow of a man in a hat. And I have literally seen that before at Bree's house. When we were little, he was walking down the stairs and we were literally [00:28:00] freaking out and her little brother had to come hide with us.

I'm not even kidding. That's a thing. You can even, now that we're talking about it, your algorithm is going to go crazy. It's a whole thing. The man in the hat. Shadow. He's a shadow person and like most people have seen him. 

Elizabeth: Shadow people and sleep paralysis. So he's a shadow person. 

Erica: Yes. 

Elizabeth: Shadow people lore has been fueled by TikTok's fascination with the paranormal, but the explanation could be medical.

Erica: Well, okay, we know I have some medical things going on. However, I was not alone in this. Bree and her brother also saw it. Sleep paralysis is when, and I have had that before, it's when you, your mind wakes up, but your body is still asleep. And so you can't move or [00:29:00] anything. I want to give the story of when I had sleep paralysis, but I can't.

All I can tell you is when, one day when I'm out of the military, I will. No, I was awake when I saw the man in the hat. Okay. And so was Bree. 

Elizabeth: Interesting. All right. I never heard of that, but I'll be on the lookout for shadow people. 

Erica: Anybody listening who's ever seen the man in the hat, please comment or DM Beth and just let her know it's real.

Yeah. 

Elizabeth: Let me know. We did put out on social media for people to say some of their best haunted attractions that they've been to. And so we had a couple people give answers. One of them said that they went on a ghost tour and Galveston, Texas. And I found that completely fascinating, didn't know that there was so much history and you know, tragic, such a tragic past there.

So Galveston, Texas the Crescent Hotel in Eureka Springs, which is apparently a [00:30:00] haunted hotel that you can stay at. Then somebody said St. Simon's Island, which I lived at for a short period of time. And you've been, I'm sure you've been there when I lived there. I don't know. Haunted and then Ohio state reformatory, which is like a prison.

Oh, we said that was crazy. So lots of suggestions for your spooky season. Yeah. I'm going to put as many links as I can find in the show notes so that people can, if they hear something that they want to do nearby, they can, yeah, the show notes and click on it. Of course, if you're in Atlanta, you definitely have something you can do, which is obviously.

LinearGhostTours. com and put in the promo code LGT, Halloween things exclamation. I'll put that in the show notes too. Yeah, if we missed something in your neck of the woods, let us know. Comment, DM, we want to hear about it. 

Erica: I will be down in [00:31:00] Atlanta over Halloween for sure. Come to the Ghost Boat Tours and see us.

Elizabeth: Yes, please do. 

Erica: We'll all drink wine together. 

Elizabeth: It'll be great. Well, I won't because I'll be working, but you're welcome to. We have to keep our guests safe on a boat.  

Erica: Of course, safety first. 

Elizabeth: So, all right, everybody, thank you for joining us on our 10th episode of Spirits Uncorked. We're going to continue to talk about cool, creepy, weird, fascinating things and Lake Lanier and some other stuff.
