Life with Hundreds of Ghosts: The True Story of the Mason House Inn, Part Two | Grave Talks CLASSIC
This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE!
When Chuck and Joy Hanson set out to buy a quiet country property in Iowa, they never expected to end up as innkeepers to the dead. What they found instead was the Mason House Inn — a historic riverfront hotel built in 1846 for weary steamboat travelers, and one of the most haunted places in the Midwest.
From the moment they moved in, the Hansons realized their new home came with some long-term guests — including an elderly woman’s ghost who greeted them soon after arrival. But she wasn’t alone. Over the years, they’ve encountered hundreds of spirits, from mischievous children to Civil War soldiers to travelers who simply never checked out.
In this spine-tingling episode of The Grave Talks, Chuck and Joy share what it’s like to live, work, and sleep among the dead, and how they’ve come to see their spectral housemates not as intruders, but as part of the family. This is Part Two of our conversation.

Your Turn Now, George: A Voice from the Dead at the Passover Table | Real Ghost Stories LIVE!
These are not just stories — they’re two true encounters with the afterlife that blur the line between grief and the paranormal.
The first comes from Brooke in Michigan, whose parents both passed away — yet neither truly left. The night before her mother’s funeral, Brooke dreamed she saw her mom standing over her bed, looking young, healthy, radiant — nothing like the woman who’d been exhausted by illness in her final days. Without speaking, her mother smiled… then reached out and gently touched Brooke’s heart. Brooke jolted awake, convinced it wasn’t just a dream but a goodbye from beyond.
The second story comes from BG in Ohio, whose grandfather’s presence lingered in the sweetest — and eeriest — ways. Hours after his passing, the scent of his long-discontinued cologne mysteriously filled the exact spot where he used to sit at the head of the dining table. A year later, during Passover, BG’s father — who had no knowledge of a family inside joke about “Georges,” slipped into a strange trance and called a relative by the nickname only the grandfather used.
Are these simply dreams and coincidences, or evidence that love really can reach across the veil?

The Haunting Story of Sam Baltrusis, Part Two | Grave Talks CLASSIC
This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE!
For most of his life, Sam Baltrusis thought he had the paranormal under control. Haunted hotels, ghostly whispers, eerie encounters — they were all part of the job for the author and historian known for exploring New England’s most haunted locations. But one night in Salem, that all changed.
After a performance in the city infamous for its witch trials and restless dead, Sam realized something had followed him — a spirit not content to be ignored. What began as strange sensations and shifting shadows escalated into a terrifying fight for his life against an unseen force determined to claim him.
In this gripping episode of The Grave Talks, Sam recounts the chilling true story of the Salem haunting that nearly killed him, and how he fought to reclaim his body, his mind, and his faith. This is Part Two of our conversation.

Don’t Answer It — A Mother’s Warning That May Have Saved Them | After Midnight
Not every haunting announces itself with slamming doors and flickering lights. Some slip in quietly — using the voices you trust most.
An eight-year-old boy moves into a house with his parents and grandparents. The new home feels like a dream — sunlit kitchen, a grassy yard, a long hallway leading to a quiet back bedroom. But that back room, shaded by a stand of banana trees, carries a chill in the air… and a whisper that seems to rise with the wind.
At first, it’s only soft murmurs. Then the whispers start calling his name — in his father’s voice, then his mother’s. Each time he answers, he finds them nowhere near the source of the sound. His deeply spiritual mother gives him a rule he never forgets: “If you hear us calling and we’re not there, don’t answer it.”
Years pass, but the voices don’t. They even mimic his sister’s name, luring them from their rooms. One blistering summer afternoon, while showering after yardwork, he hears his father scream his name in agony… even though his father is miles away at the dump. As he races out dripping wet, a freezing breeze sweeps across his chest — a touch he still remembers decades later.
This is the story of a haunting that doesn’t need shadows to terrify — it just needs your name.
