The Grave Talks | Haunted, Paranormal & Supernatural

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE!

What happens when we die—and who were we before this life began? These questions sit at the heart of the mysteries surrounding past lives and reincarnation.

Certified hypnotist Amanda Shertzer joins us to explore how past life regression works and what people often uncover when they look beyond their current lifetime. Do lives unfold in a sequential order, or is there something like a “pause” between incarnations? And can the knowledge from those experiences help us grow and better understand the life we’re living now?

There was nothing obviously wrong with the tall mirror in her grandmother’s sitting room. It had been in the family for years — older than the furniture, darker than the rest of the décor, quietly leaning against the wall.

But if someone stood in front of it long enough, something appeared.

Not in the center of the glass. Not clearly visible. Always at the edge of the frame — textured, darker than a shadow, and just out of direct view.

When she finally told her grandmother what she had seen, she wasn’t dismissed...

When Lee Moore’s girlfriend ended their relationship, he expected heartbreak—not a curse. Instead of a clean break, he says she turned to witchcraft, unleashing a nightmare that followed him long after the relationship ended.

At first Lee tried to ignore it and move forward with his life. He married, built a future, and hoped the past would stay behind him. But the strange experiences only intensified—terrifying nightmares, shadowy figures, physical attacks, and an unseen presence that seemed determined to destroy everything he had built...

Jason and Marcus grew up on the same quiet street, the kind of place where sleepovers happened without much planning and kids stayed up long after everyone else in the house had gone to bed.

Once the television went dark and the house settled into silence, their conversations often drifted toward stranger topics—stories they had heard growing up, odd things people claimed had happened in houses around town, the kind of late-night talk that always feels a little more unsettling in the dark.

One night Marcus mentioned the house his family had lived in be...

In the early 1900s, tuberculosis was one of the deadliest diseases in America, leading to the construction of sanatoriums designed to isolate and treat the sick. One of those facilities was the Cresson Sanatorium, built high in the mountains of Pennsylvania.

Over time, the purpose of the property changed dramatically. What began as a tuberculosis treatment center later became a psychiatric hospital and eventually a state prison. Across each chapter, thousands passed through its doors—patients seeking healing, individuals battling mental illness, and inmates serving time.

But what happens when you see your twin walking down the hallway… and she isn’t home?

In 2012, one sister began catching glimpses of her identical twin in places she couldn’t possibly be — reflections in mirrors, a figure at the bottom of the stairs, a voice calling her name from just outside her bedroom door. At first, she blamed peripheral vision and imagination. Then it kept happening.

It never felt violent. Nothing was thrown. Nothing attacked. It was always imitation — subtle, specific, deliberate. Even her twin admitted she’d seen “her” once too.

In the small town of Trinway, Ohio, the grand Prospect Place Estate has stood since 1856. Built by abolitionist George Willison Adams, the 29-room mansion once served as a symbol of freedom and progress, playing a role in the history of the Underground Railroad.

Today, the estate is known for something else—its reputation as one of Ohio’s most haunted locations.

When Ashley and Nick brought their newborn daughter home, the nights in the house quickly began to feel different from the days.

During daylight, the place felt calm and predictable. But once the neighborhood settled into nighttime quiet, the rooms seemed larger, the hallway darker, and sleep came only in short stretches between feedings.

The baby monitor helped during those long nights. From her bedside, Ashley could glance at the small screen and see the nursery clearly—the crib beneath the window, the rocking chair in the corner, everything exactly where it should be.

The Haunted Exchange Hotel in Gordonsville, Virginia, carries a history steeped in war, tragedy, and lingering spirits.

Originally built as a luxury railroad hotel, the building’s purpose quickly changed during the Civil War, when it was converted into a receiving hospital and triage center for wounded soldiers. More than 70,000 soldiers passed through its rooms, and hundreds would take their final breath within its walls.

After the war, the building returned to its life as a hotel—but stories of strange activity and unexplained enco...

Connie grew up in a family full of “sensitives,” but she never thought she was one of them. That changed after she gave birth.

The activity didn’t begin until her daughter came home from the hospital. Late-night tapping that stopped when she asked it to. Voices coming through the baby monitor when no one was upstairs. A black shape caught on video that no one saw in real time.

Now her toddler occasionally points behind people and calmly describes someone standing there.

Her relatives say sensitivity runs in the family. But Connie keeps...

For Kevin Schmitz, the paranormal wasn’t something discovered later in life—it had always been there.

From childhood encounters, including a glowing blue apparition of his grandmother in the middle of the night, to the unsettling atmosphere of a house he lived in as a teenager, strange experiences followed him for years.

But everything changed after a near-death experience in 2005.

That moment forced Kevin to confront the possibility that his connection to the spirit world was far deeper than he had ever...

Matt was fourteen the winter his father bought the house after the divorce. It was supposed to be temporary—just a place for the two of them while life settled into something new.

For the first few weeks, the house felt ordinary enough. Old floors creaked, the pipes clicked in the walls, and the quiet between father and son slowly became routine.

Then one night, Matt woke up to find the bathroom light on in the hallway. He was sure he hadn’t turned it on.

At first, it seemed like a small thin...

He had used a Ouija board before without consequence.

So when he brought one into his apartment in 2004, he wasn’t expecting anything to follow. The first night was quiet. Nothing dramatic happened.

Then the nights began to feel different.

Strange sounds in the kitchen long after everyone was asleep. Activity that stopped the moment he went to check. Laughter outside at an hour when no one should have been awake.

And one detail he still can’t shake — something standing just outside his bedroom door.

He threw the board...

The New England Society for Paranormal Research museum, once owned by legendary investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren, houses some of the most infamous haunted objects in the world.

Behind glass cases and protective blessings sit artifacts said to carry dark histories—including the notorious Annabelle doll, along with other objects believed to be connected to intense paranormal activity.

The Whitaker farmhouse had stood at the end of a gravel drive since 1893, passed quietly through generations of the same family. Over the years, people mentioned small things about the house—footsteps on the back staircase late at night, the faint sound of humming drifting from the kitchen after everyone had gone to bed. Nothing dramatic. The family simply said it was Great-Grandma Eleanor still checking on things.

When the last of Eleanor’s grandchildren passed away, the house was finally emptied and the family began sorting through decades of belongings. Among the boxes were heavy photo albu...

Some people discover their connection to the spiritual world slowly—often after years of experiences they can’t explain.

For Erin Bush, that realization began during her college years while living in a house known for intense paranormal activity. Strange encounters and unexplained phenomena forced her to question what she was experiencing—and what it might mean.

Over time, Erin began to understand her empathic abilities and eventually embraced a new path as a Reiki Master and energy healer, helping others work through trauma and em...

At sixteen, she came home just after midnight and saw a well-dressed man standing in the dark hallway of her parents’ house. He wasn’t her father. And when she turned on the light, he was gone.

For five nights in a row, he appeared in her dreams — silent, except for one word: his name.

Gavin.

Then came a vision of a violent car crash. Days later, a small child walked into her workplace and stopped cold, staring at her. His mother called out to him.

“Gavin.”

For generations, people living along the Massachusetts–Rhode Island border have shared stories about a place where the unexplained seems to gather—the Bridgewater Triangle.

This infamous region of southeastern Massachusetts has been linked to centuries of strange phenomena, including ghostly apparitions, UFO sightings, mysterious creatures, and disturbing encounters deep within places like Freetown State Forest.

She had always kept the dolls perfectly aligned along the shelf across from her bed. Every chin lifted the same way, every glass eye reflecting the room in identical points of light. Order mattered.

One night, home alone, she climbed the stairs and saw someone standing quietly in her bedroom near the window. She assumed it was her sister and called out for her to leave.

But the house was empty.

Moments later, the figure was gone. When she looked across the room again, the dolls she had carefully arranged earlier that day...

This is PART TWO of our conversation.

What if the home you thought would be a new beginning became the start of a nightmare?

Before Doug Owen became a paranormal researcher and author, he was simply a husband and father trying to build a life for his family in a new Idaho home. But what unfolded inside that house would change the course of his life forever.

Strange apparitions began appearing. Mirrors shattered. Disembodied voices echoed through the house. Over time, the activity seemed to grow darker and more manipulative, targeting not only...

Elliott Van Dusen spent 15 years with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, investigating some of the most serious crimes imaginable—including homicide, sex crimes, and drug enforcement. His career placed him face-to-face with the darkest parts of the human experience.

But Elliott’s curiosity didn’t stop with criminal investigations.

After retiring as a Corporal, he turned his attention to a different kind of mystery—the paranormal. As Director of Paranormal Phenomena Research & Investigation, Elliott began applying his investigative mindset to reports of ghostly encounters and unex...

She had never believed in the paranormal. She grew up in that house. Knew every stair, every sound, every shadow. Nothing about it had ever felt strange.

Until the night she came home after 2 a.m. and felt something waiting upstairs. What she saw wasn’t dramatic. It wasn’t transparent. It didn’t lunge or disappear.

It just stood there.

The next morning, when she carefully told her parents what happened, their reaction was not what she expected.

Because sometimes the most unsettling part of a sighting isn’t what you see...

Over the course of a week, something strange began happening in their home. Light bulbs — eight or nine of them — burned out in rapid succession. Voltage was checked. Nothing unusual. Still, the feeling lingered that something was off.

Then one evening, while the family was out, their 22-year-old godson was home alone. Around midnight, he heard heavy footsteps — slow, deliberate — moving through the house. They stopped right outside the bathroom door. Then came two loud bangs on the wall.

He ran to the neighbor’s house, convinced someone had broken in. They searched the home. Doors lock...

When she was eleven, she saw her sister in places her sister couldn’t have been.

A figure crossing a doorway. Bare feet outside her bedroom at night. Always brief. Always ordinary. It never spoke. It never approached. It simply appeared in the shape of someone familiar — and withdrew.

She convinced herself it was childhood imagination.

Decades later, in a different house, with a different child living under her roof, it happened again. This time, it wore her niece’s face.

It never tried to harm anyone. It just moved through the ho...

Richmond, Virginia may be one of the most haunted cities in America—and its long, turbulent history may explain why.

Built on centuries of conflict, tragedy, and transformation, Richmond’s streets carry the echoes of the Civil War, the pain of enslavement, and the lingering presence of those who never truly left.

In 2007, while serving with the British Army in Germany, one soldier was assigned a routine task in the cellar of an aging barracks — a former Luftwaffe station dating back to the Second World War.

The underground layout was identical in every building: a long concrete corridor, heavy metal doors, fluorescent lights buzzing against thick, shadowed walls. It was old, but it was familiar. Until it wasn’t.

Alone at the far end of the corridor, the atmosphere shifted without warning. The air grew heavy. Silence pressed in. And he was struck with the unmistakable certainty that...

Every paranormal investigator has a moment—the experience that pulls them from curiosity into a lifelong search for answers.

For Dylan Lane, that moment sparked a journey that has taken him into haunted locations, quiet cemeteries, and places where the unexplained seems to linger long after the living have gone. In this conversation, Dylan shares the experiences that first drew him into the paranormal and how those early encounters shaped the way he investigates today.
