The Grave Talks | Haunted, Paranormal & Supernatural

Emily’s childhood farmhouse in rural Minnesota hid more than loose floorboards: a bedroom light that glowed even with the switch off, phantom footsteps that her cat-crowd followed with wide eyes, and a face peeking from a sealed chimney pipe. Decades later, she and her husband slipped into the long-abandoned house for a quick look, only to find a body-shaped tape outline exactly where she and her mom once felt watched. When a family leaves, can the haunting ever quit the house? This is a daily EXTRA from The Grave Talks.

Children have wild imaginations; sometimes, their imaginary friends are written off as harmless. But what happens when that "imaginary" friend knows too much? When does a child's playmate seem more real than make-believe? In this story, a mother realizes that her child’s imaginary friend isn’t as innocent as she first thought. At first, the games and conversations seem typical, but soon, the child begins sharing details about the "friend" they couldn’t possibly know. As the story unfolds, the invisible playmate starts making demands, giving instructions, and pushing boundaries in increasingly sinister ways. The child insists the friend is real, and strange occurrences around the house back up that claim—doors closing on their own, toys moving, and cold spots in the child's bedroom. Things escalate until the presence becomes undeniable. It’s not long before the entire family is caught in the grip of fear, with the invisible friend taking control of their lives.

On this episode, Tony Brueski digs into the eerie legacy of the Lorraine Motel in Memphis, Tennessee—an American landmark forever tied to one of the most tragic moments in civil rights history. After the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. on the motel’s second-floor balcony, many believed the building would simply fade into history. But what has lingered inside those walls may be more than just memory. From disembodied voices and unexplained shadows to chilling encounters by staff and visitors alike, the motel—now home to the National Civil Rights Museum—has become a magnet for paranormal speculation. Can a place soaked in sorrow ever truly find peace?

A paranormal investigator thought his co-op shift at Ottawa’s Cumberland Heritage Museum would be routine—until the Dufour House slammed every shutter, turned summer air to ice, and dragged him upstairs to a blood-soaked bedroom that shouldn’t exist. Trapped behind a door that felt welded shut, Matthew heard triple claw marks, angered a child spirit guarding a toy gun, and faced a towering black shadow that left him locked in a staring match for two full hours. Was it an overactive haunting—or the demon locals whisper about whenever babies burst into tears at the threshold? This is a daily EXTRA from The Grave Talks.

Sleep paralysis is a phenomenon many people experience, but what happens when it takes on a much darker, more sinister edge? In this episode, we dive into the harrowing experience of a person whose sleep is no longer a place of peace but a nightly battle with shadowy figures that pin them down, leaving them completely helpless. The terror becomes all too real when these apparitions start to feel less like hallucinations and more like entities with a malicious purpose. Are these simply byproducts of a stressed and fatigued mind, or could something far more insidious be at work? Imagine waking up, fully conscious yet completely paralyzed, while something dark and malevolent hovers over you, waiting, watching, pressing its weight into your chest until you can’t breathe. This isn’t just one night of terror but a repeated cycle that leaves the storyteller questioning their very sanity.

We'll delve into eyewitness accounts, staff experiences, and the cultural impact of the Lady in Red legend.

Mallory’s 1985 house seems normal—until the land beneath it shows its teeth. A midnight tent sleepover is shattered by a disembodied girl inviting unseen playmates. Weeks later, a chain-latched basement door slams while the latch still swings, a padlocked attic somehow gapes wide, and her daughter’s blinds snap violently at dawn. Summer 2021 ups the ante: a lanky figure rockets past the garage, freshly ironed shorts duplicate themselves, and a vanished phone reappears—charging—in the center of a Bible Mallory has checked five times. Winter seals the deal when her car doors freeze shut from the inside, trapping her until a friend opens them effortlessly. The house may be new, but the restless ground underneath is ancient.

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! Jason Faust’s first taste of the supernatural came when he ditched Sunday school to skulk through his family’s church, hoping to catch the same “whispers and shadows” the elders gossiped about over coffee. Decades later, he’s no longer a curious kid but a full-time paranormal investigator, fielding calls from families desperate for a night’s sleep free of knocking closets and guttural growls. In this conversation, Jason breaks down his working theory that truly dark entities don’t waste time on the unprepared—they reveal themselves only to people strong (or stubborn) enough to fight back. From blessed water that boils on contact to homes where the air itself feels weaponized, Jason explains what separates an ordinary haunt from a demonic showdown—and why he still believes curiosity is his best protection.

She thought house-sitting her friend’s Toronto apartment would be the perfect post-travel crash pad—until the key jammed like someone was holding it from the other side.

But the terror peaked the night shuffling footsteps patrolled the hallway, and an unseen figure dropped onto the mattress beside her. What haunts a unit tucked at the end of a long corridor, staring straight at a century-old cemetery? This is a daily EXTRA from The Grave Talks.

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! Gettysburg’s rolling fields are serene only at first glance; dig beneath the grass and you’re stepping onto one of the bloodiest stages in American history. Paranormal investigator Dale Kaczmarek has spent decades asking a blunt question: Do the most violent hotspots yield the strongest evidence? From Devil’s Den to the Wheatfield, Dale’s recorders have captured rifle cracks that weren’t there, whispered roll calls no living soldier answers, and once, a direct voice naming the regiment that died on that very slope. In this episode, he shares the locations where the casualty count was highest, along with EVPs, spirit-box clips, and thermal hits that suggest the fallen may still be fighting to be heard. Join us as we examine whether trauma leaves a louder imprint and why some corners of Gettysburg refuse to stay silent. This is Part Two of our conversation.
