For the first Haunted Thursday, we visit one of America’s most famous haunted locations: the Whaley House in Old Town San Diego. Built in 1857 on land tied to the ex*****on of Yankee Jim Robinson, the house has become known for reports of heavy footsteps, apparitions, strange sounds, mysterious scents, and other unexplained experiences. In this episode, we look at the documented history, the Whaley family tragedies, the claims made by visitors and staff, the skeptical explanations, and why this house is still talked about more than 165 years later.

Sounds of Halloween Part 2: Halloween Music

What makes a song feel like Halloween? Is it monsters and ghosts in the lyrics, creepy sound effects, or something deeper hidden within the music itself?

In this episode, we explore the fascinating history of Halloween music and the sounds that have become part of the season. From novelty classics like Monster Mash and Ghostbusters to the enduring popularity of Thriller, we look at how certain songs became Halloween traditions even when they were never written specifically for the holiday.

We'll also dive into the legend of the "Devil's Interval," the supernatural folklore surrounding blues music, the rise of monster-themed novelty records in the 1950s and 1960s, and the horror movie soundtracks that forever changed the way we hear fear. Along the way, we'll uncover why certain notes, instruments, and musical techniques create feelings of suspense, mystery, and unease.

Whether you're building the perfect Halloween playlist, decorating for the season, or simply curious about why some sounds make your skin crawl, this episode explores the ever-changing soundtrack of Halloween.
