• 1:47Corinne Vien?

  Hello. We have a very special guest today. Back again with us because we're just obsessed with her. And so we were like, Why not? Want to talk again? Be our friend.

• 1:56Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  And I feel like last time, we talked to Bridget and Holly, so we only got like some of their stories.

• 2:02Corinne Vien?

  Yeah.

• 2:02Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  But this time, we spoke with Bridget, who has a podcast called Ghost Bunny, all about the paranormal. And my goodness, does she have so many stories.

• 2:11Corinne Vien?

  Yeah, it was really great to deep dive into a lot of her experiences and just talk about like her history of

• 2:17Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Her lore.

• 2:18Corinne Vien?

  Her lore. It's Bridget's lore, and she finds a way to attract spirits, no matter what she does and where she goes.

• 2:25Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  We hope you enjoy.

• 2:48Corinne Vien?

  Hi, Bridget.

• 2:49Speaker 03

  Hi, guys.

• 2:50Corinne Vien?

  We're so excited to be doing part two of our little collab that we're doing and talk more about your paranormal experiences.

• 2:57Speaker 03

  Okay. You know what? I was just scrolling through the phone before you guys got on, and have you seen, I'm sure you've seen it on Instagram. There's this lady who's, I don't know if it's even true or not, but this woman who passed away. And she had these little tiny Ouija boards made for everybody that went to the funeral so they could talk to her after she died.

• 3:14Corinne Vien?

  That's brilliant.

• 3:16Speaker 03

  It said something like, "Keep in touch," or something like that.

• 3:19Corinne Vien?

  Oh, my God. Wait, that's brilliant. Also, just brilliant in and of itself to pre-plan party favors for the guests of your funeral. The attendees, but Ouija boards?

• 3:31Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Wow.

• 3:31Corinne Vien?

  We should all steal this idea.

• 3:33Speaker 03

  It should be a standard funeral favor that everybody gets.

• 3:37Corinne Vien?

  Right? Forget songs. I don't need anyone to give me a eulogy or anything like that. Like, I need a seance.

• 3:43Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  I'm obsessed with this. Wow. Wait, speaking of Ouija boards, I remember you had told us this, but now I'm, I'm gonna ask you to tell it again, because I think it's such an amazing story. But you told us last time we talked that you saved up your money to buy a Ouija board when you were a kid.

• 3:59Speaker 03

  Yes. It was like my babysitting money and I, um, the first thing I wanted to buy was a Ouija board and I made my cousin who was like, she's about two years younger than me and my little brother, I don't think I made him play. He was just one of those pesky, you know, wanted to like stick around with him. So my cousin and I are playing, I was like 12. So we don't know anybody that's has died at that point or very few people. And the only person that I knew was my great grandfather and he had died recently. So we're like, okay, let's try and reach out to him. So we were talking and supposedly we were connecting with him, but I kept saying, you're pushing it. And she was like, you're pushing it and like getting the arguments over it. And then we just decided, we don't want to play anymore. This is dumb

• 4:41Speaker 03

  because you're just moving it and you know, whatever. And sometimes I tell this part of the story and sometimes I don't because I feel like it just goes into a bigger area. But my cousin had these like X marks in her leg, like indents, like she had leaned up against something, three of them. And the, the board was not on her lap. Like at first I was like, well, maybe the board like pressed into her leg or whatever, but the board was flat on the floor between us. So we do not know where she got those, but she was freaking out because she felt like they were like the sign of the cross or something.

• 5:12Corinne Vien?

  That is terrifying. Your poor cousin, you were like, I'm making you do this.

• 5:15Speaker 03

  No, she's still terrified to this day. I had the Winchester house to myself for two nights in a row and I invited her and her sister and their mom and stuff and my mom and everybody, like a group of people to come and hang out with me. And she was like, I can't do this. I can't do this.

• 5:30Corinne Vien?

  She's gonna stop hanging out with you.

• 5:34Speaker 03

  Yeah. She dropped them off and she's like, I'll be at CVS and back at the hotel. Call me when you're ready to pick us up. She's like terrified to this day.

• 5:44Corinne Vien?

  Wow. Did you bring a Ouija board with you to the Winchester mystery house?

• 5:48Speaker 03

  You don't have to because they have one there for you. And there's a, there's a round table and like, it's not the seance room that Sarah used to use, but they have another seance room set up upstairs. And like they have a round table with like a chandelier and a Ouija board on it and stuff. So we were definitely filming with the Ouija board there.

• 6:05Corinne Vien?

  Did anything happen?

• 6:06Speaker 03

  Yeah, we had some weird stuff happen. So there's the seance room. There's a room right next to it with like pictures of, um, The like deceased photography, old deceased photography on the like and and they kind of have like a, I don't want to say a game with it because that sounds rude, but like you you know, which ones are the people deceased in these photos, you know?

• 6:29Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Right.

• 6:30Speaker 03

  And just before we were about to move to that room, the light fixture fell out of the ceiling and onto the table in the middle. And they so they were like not letting us go in that room right away, even though like we were ready to go. And I was like, wait, what's? I don't understand like why we're not going in there. Like, what's the holdup? And then finally they were like, okay, we're just gonna tell you. We don't know that it's paranormal or anything like that, but like the whole light just like just as we were good to go in there. And then the other thing that happened is I was doing this like scene where I'm Bridget on the outside and I'm interviewing people normal. And then I asked to come back in the like later at night and explore the house by myself at night. And they say I can, but then I have to meet somebody there.

• 7:13Speaker 03

  And so I go to the house at night and this is sort of a gag that we're doing in the the filming that we're doing. And I show up to the house and nobody's there. And so I go up to the front door and I open it and it opens. And as I walk through the door, it's focusing on my feet and it shows my tennis shoes turning into like old like Victorian boots.

• 7:33Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Ooh.

• 7:34Speaker 03

  And I turn into like Sarah Winchester as I walk in the door. And then I'm like trapped in the house and I look outside and I see Bridget outside doing like

• 7:41Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Oh, my gosh.

• 7:43Speaker 03

  But I'm inside. But anyway, in order to get that scene, we had to do it multiple times because I have to get it from different angles and whatever, you know? Oh, and part of the scene too is the door shuts behind me like on its own. So we had a producer out there that was like taking the door and like shutting it behind me. And so I went to go walk out to redo the scene and I go to grab the doorknob. And I opened the door and I only had it open like just a little bit and something pulled it out of my hand and slammed it shut.

• 8:10Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  What?

• 8:11Speaker 03

  And I was like, oh, the oh, the producer must be standing there thinking, oh, the door came open. I gotta keep it shut, you know? So then I opened it again and he's not there. He's still hiding around the corner, waiting for like the scene to end.

• 8:24Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  The ghost was like trying to help you out.

• 8:27Speaker 03

  Yeah, I asked him, did you just shut the door? Like, did you just grab it? And he's like, no. Like, I didn't want to interrupt the scene. And then one other thing, it's not a thing, but it's something tells me it was a thing.

• 8:37Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Yeah.

• 8:37Speaker 03

  I was at the end of the hall. Have you guys been to the Winchester House?

• 8:40Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  I have. I actually went on a Friday the 13th when they like rang the bell and everything. It was cool.

• 8:47Speaker 03

  That's so fun. Okay, so you know, there's this long corridor and at the very end is the carriage house and her carriage is actually still parked in there.

• 8:54Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Yeah.

• 8:55Speaker 03

  The cameras are at one end and they're like, okay, go all the way down the end of the hall and it's all dark in there and stuff like there's no lights on except for our camera lights and stuff. And oh, and I have a little candle out over my hand and I'm wearing like a veil over my face and stuff and I'm dressed in Victorian mourning wear. And they're like, so go all the way to the end of the hall by the carriage and then wait till we say action, you know? So I walked down there and I'm standing down there by myself. I can see the camera people at the end of the hall, but like I'm by myself pretty far from them. And I swear I just felt like somebody was like next to me. Like I could almost feel breath or movement or something from something next to me. Like I just very much felt like something's gonna whisper to me, something's gonna whisper to me.

• 9:36Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Could you like pick up on any other type of energy with it? Was it pleasant? Was it curious, negative? What did it feel like?

• 9:44Speaker 03

  It just felt like somebody was about to whisper in my ear and tell me something, which was unnerving.

• 9:52Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  I can like feel it in my ear. Like, you know that feeling where one ear specifically is like listening more?

• 9:58Speaker 03

  Mm hmm. Yeah. And it's where you kind of get that tingle on your side of your body where you're like, oh my God, somebody's right next to me and about to whisper in my ear and I want to go like this. Type of thing. It was just unnerving, but not because it was scary. Cause I don't think that there's anything like evil or demonic or anything like that at the Winchester House. I think that it's probably staff who loved that house and are still there. And maybe Sarah, I mean, when we filmed in her room, the second we like left or entered, we'd have to say, um, hello, Sarah and good night, Sarah. That's like a rule they have there when you're filming at late at night and you're the last ones to leave it. I mean, they do say that there is a caretaker who passed away, who they still see, especially in the basement.

• 10:41Speaker 03

  And in the basement, they, we did this fun thing that I'd never done before. You know those little lollipops? They're called dumbbells. They're, they're kind of small.

• 10:49Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Oh, the the dum-dums, yeah.

• 10:51Speaker 03

  Oh, dum-dums, yeah. Well, they had those and they hand them out to everybody in the basement. And you put them in the palm of your hand and then you ask it to move the lollipop. So you have the round end like in the palm of your hand, the stick is sticking up. And for the most part, it sticks up pretty straight. Maybe some of them are a little lopsided and go to the side. But you can ask it to kind of move your stick. And I literally saw people's sticks like bend all the way over and come back up.

• 11:18Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  It's kind of like dowsing rods.

• 11:19Corinne Vien?

  But also, this is the coolest thing in this. Just like, I love a story that includes some sort of like scrappy form of communication where people are like finding tree bark and like marking it to create like their own Ouija board. And this feels like that. It's like, oh, you can still communicate with the dead, even if you just have a lollipop.

• 11:35Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Yeah.

• 11:36Speaker 03

  No, really. Like, it was, I thought it was just so cool.

• 11:39Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  I feel like you have gone to so many places, especially now with Ghost Bunny, and you've done so many investigations. Some of them, which you teased us about when we were on your show. So we need to hear more. Where have you been? What are your favorite spots that you've investigated? And we'll start there.

• 11:58Speaker 03

  Oh, it's so hard to pick. And I I forget. There's so many places like I forget until somebody brings it up. And I'm like, oh, I've been there. Oh, I've been.

• 12:07Speaker 03

  I mean, my favorite, and I probably already told you about it the last time, is the Myrtles Plantation.

• 12:11Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Yes. Well, you teased us, but you didn't tell us like what you experienced.

• 12:16Speaker 03

  Oh, OK. So I went there for my birthday. It's it's been like a place that I've wanted to go for so long, even back at the mansion. Like, I was reading every book I could find on the Myrtles Plantation, watching every little like most haunted documentary on Travel Channel, because that's all we had back then. And anything I could find on Myrtles. And I really, really, really wanted to stay there. And I never got to do. In fact, we were supposed to shoot an episode of Girls Next Door there. We were going to go for Mardi Gras, and I was going to do my Mardi Gras show there, but I wanted to go to Myrtles, because of course. And they, it was all set in stone. And the last second, it got pulled. That was a bummer. So flash forward to years later, I don't know, maybe eight years ago now. So I really need to go back. We do it for my birthday. We're going to New Orleans, Nick and I.

• 13:00Speaker 03

  And we, I'm like, we have to go stay at the Myrtles Plantation. So we rent a car, drive out to the Myrtles Plantation. And we get the room in the house because there's like Newer cottages that you can also rent that are on the property, but we want to stay in the main

• 13:13Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Yeah, of course.

• 13:14Speaker 03

  So our room just so happens to be like this amazing room that also has a giant sitting area out front, the main staircase in the like entryway, and then the the big haunted mirror and the piano and the entryway doors are all part of our room. Like, and nobody else gets to go in there after after tours during business hours, they still do tours through everything, but like once, like at six o'clock or whatever, when the tours are over, they lock those doors and we're the only ones with the key to it.

• 13:46Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  That's so cool.

• 13:47Speaker 03

  Except for the managers that are on property. Yeah, and they ask you not to let other people in the area, which is kind of a bummer. So but you have it all to yourself. So it's kind of good in one way, but kind of sad in another way. You know, so anyway, we get out all the equipment and Nick is not really a big believer, but he's a good sport. So I give him like a K two meter and I'm like, go check out the mirror. I'm going to sit on the 17th step because supposedly this man was shot at the front door and he made it to the 17th step and died in his wife's arms there. So I'm like, I'm going to sit on the 17th step and with my recorder and see if I can get like any EVPs or whatever. And so we're sitting there doing that and we're getting nothing. I mean, to the point where I thought maybe all my batteries dead, did I even turn this

• 14:31Speaker 03

  stuff on because you know how the K two meter, it it usually just sort of like moves a little bit, like go from green to darker green at least just to let you know that it's working. It was doing nothing. I mean, nothing, green wasn't even lighting up like I'm like this, something's wrong here. So we were getting nothing. So like around, I don't know, one in the morning or something like that. I'm like calling it. I'm like, this is so disappointing. I mean, I know, and I talk about on my podcast that just because a place might be the most haunted place in the world, just because you're there one night, doesn't mean you're going to get an experience like they don't act on command and like

• 15:06Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Exactly.

• 15:06Speaker 03

  It doesn't mean it's not haunted, you know, but it is still disappointing.

• 15:10Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  And it's also interesting because the lack of anything working is also weird just based on like electricity and like different temperature shifts that just happen naturally, which almost feels paranormal in itself because it's like. Are the ghosts like making it a literal dead zone?

• 15:30Speaker 03

  Well, it could be because about what's about to happen. So I also that night I was getting a migraine and I have a medication that like wipes it out. So I took my the migraine medication and it didn't work. So I took a second one and it still didn't work. And so by one in the morning, when we're not getting anything and my head is killing me, I'm just like, okay, we're going to bed like that's it.

• 15:51Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Yeah.

• 15:51Speaker 03

  So we go to bed and then like around three something, we're awakened by an electronic noise in our room. And we both sit up straight in the bed. We're like, what was that? And we can't figure out what is there's no electronics in the room, by the way, there's no TVs, there's no, because they're, you know, historic plays. And the K two meter that he was using was sitting on his nightstand and it was lighting up to like red and then going back to green, red, green, red. Like, and he's like, oh, was your K two meter making that noise? But my K two meter doesn't make a noise. So I was like, it's not the K two meter. And then the, the pressure in the room felt so, so, so heavy.

• 16:31Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Oh, God.

• 16:32Speaker 03

  I forgot one thing to tell you guys, I couldn't go to sleep at first. This is before anything started happening and I was trying to go to sleep, trying to go to sleep, my head is just killing me. And I, I was just trying to concentrate on, I think it was the frogs out in the pond outside. I was concentrating on those frogs, just listening to them chirping away. And all of a sudden they just stopped and everything went silent.

• 16:55Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Oh, I hate that.

• 16:57Speaker 03

  Went silent.

• 16:58Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Just like a void.

• 16:59Speaker 03

  Yeah, I remember thinking, oh, that's weird. Like, I wonder what time it is, like, what makes them stop? Like, is the sun starting to come up? Like, I didn't even know what time it is. And then we hear that electronic thing in our room and we both sit up and we're like, what was that? And then we hear boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, up the stairs. We're the only ones with keys to this room. And I was like, oh, oh, my God. And I opened up the door and there's nobody there and I shut it and we're like, oh, my God, you heard that, right? He's like, yeah, of course I heard that. And then we're sitting there just like. Holy shit. And I I asked him to look at what time it was and he it was like, it was like, I don't know, three seventeen or something weird like that, you know? And I'm like, oh, my God, the last thing I want to do is get up and start investigating right now because I'm in like that like half Right.

• 17:41Speaker 03

  awake, half asleep thing. My head is killing me and like now I'm scared. Yeah. And then we hear like furniture moving above us, but we're on the top floor and we hear like kids running around and like playing and stuff. And we're like, oh, my God, what is happening right now? And he's like, they have to be setting this up, right? They have to be doing this. There's no way there's this much going on. They are doing this. And I'm like, they're not doing that. That's how are they doing that? Like, the noise above us, you could, I don't know how to describe it other than you could, it's not just a noise. You could feel the vibration of it too, a little bit. Oh, my gosh. Like, how are they making that up? How are they making up the pounding on the stairs and nobody's there? Right. Like, it's coming from all directions and stuff.

• 18:24Speaker 03

  The heaviness, like every muscle in my body felt tense. Like, I just felt like I was like this the whole time. And we're laying in bed, like, holding on to each other and trying to like pretend nothing's happening. And then every time we hear something, he's like, did you hear that? I heard it. And then like a few minutes later, I'd be like, oh, my God, did you just hear? Terrified in bed and I have to pee so bad, but ain't no way I'm going to the bathroom, which is like way. It's in our room, but our room is laid out to where it's a pretty big room. And then there's like this like kind of walk step down into like this creepy dark hallway that then goes into the bathroom. No way am I going to the bathroom by myself right now because I'm going, I just knew if I even opened my eyes that something was standing there. I was confident of it. Oh, my gosh.

• 19:09Speaker 03

  This went on and on and on, which felt like forever. And I thought, we're never gonna go to sleep tonight. This is not gonna stop. And my body was starting to hurt from just being so tensed up. And then all of a sudden, it just stopped. The whole atmosphere changed. Everything just felt like it lightened up. My whole body just relaxed. I'm so curious.

• 19:32Corinne Vien?

  Was it four AM? Because we talked about four AM. I think that.

• 19:35Speaker 03

  Yeah. So I had him look at what time. I was like, oh, my God, it's over. What time is it? And he looked at the his phone and he's like, it's, I forget, four thirteen or something random like that. And I was like, Oh my God, it's over. It's over.

• 19:46Corinne Vien?

  I'm also just so curious, like, why that block of time? Is that special or is it important in the history of the house? Like, did something happen then? Or is it just when they have the most energy?

• 19:58Speaker 03

  Yeah, I don't know. Like, I know that they have like the witching hour and then like the devil's hour and stuff like that. And it's changed. Like, it used to be midnight and then it was like 3 a.m. and stuff. And I don't know, I don't know all the differences and like what times are like certain portals or things like that. Um, but I know that they, some people think they have some significance.

• 20:20Corinne Vien?

  I just feel like this was meant to be for you, that it was supposed to fall through your radio show. Because think about how different your experience might be had you gone with that team with like producers and film cameras and all of that. Like, you got such a rich experience, riddled with ghosts. This was incredible.

• 20:39Speaker 03

  Yeah. Oh, and then the next morning, um, they do like, uh, biscuits in the gift shop. So we don't want to miss that for breakfast. So, but it's at like seven in the morning. So we hadn't slept all night, but we're like, we're, we're getting up and going down there for that. And so we did, and we get in there and the people that are working the biscuits section and stuff, they're like, oh, how was your night? What room were you guys in? And I told them what room we're in and they're like, oh, and you guys made it through the night? And we're like, wait, do people not usually? And he's like, the last two people to stay in there have left in the middle of the night.

• 21:14Corinne Vien?

  That, that makes me want to go stay in this room specifically so badly.

• 21:18Speaker 03

  Right. And then there was a table of like older people sitting there and they were like, isn't you guys making all that noise last night? And we're like, it wasn't us.

• 21:27Corinne Vien?

  So everyone was hearing it?

• 21:28Speaker 03

  Yes.

• 21:29Corinne Vien?

  That's interesting that everyone heard noises, but it sounds like whatever happens in this specific room that you were in is far worse than what other people experience. Because otherwise you would think like everyone would be running for the hills, right? Like, if they're all hearing noises in the middle of the night.

• 21:45Speaker 03

  Well, I think different rooms have different types of activity that go on. I would love to go back. I would love to go back and see what happens.

• 21:52Corinne Vien?

  So does Nick believe after this?

• 21:54Speaker 03

  Yeah, he always tells me, stop telling people I don't believe because he's had a couple of experiences now. And it's not that he doesn't believe, he just is very, very skeptical about like things that, you know, I'm like, oh, look, this is going off or they said this or whatever. He'll be like, I don't know about that. Which is good. It's good. But like his very first experience, we were at the Stanley Hotel. And they were giving us a, this was a long time ago. I heard they don't embrace the paranormal right now. But they used to big time. And they were giving me a kind of like a private paranormal tour. And we were one of the first people to go into the carriage house. They had just opened it. Like, I think like that weekend or something. And they took us up to the like attic area of the carriage house.

• 22:37Speaker 03

  And we're on like a kind of a plank walkway and you can't really walk on either side of it. For whatever reason, I don't know if you're gonna fall through or there just wasn't safety measures for it or whatever. But like, we were walking single file on this plank. The guide was in front. I was in the middle and Nick was behind me and it was only us. And something pulled his hair. And he was like, somebody just pulled my hair. And I'm, and he like looked behind, nobody's there. And then that was like his, his first, like, he was like, there's no way that could have happened. Like, somebody pulled my hair.

• 23:12Corinne Vien?

  Oh, and he got touched for the experience that changed him. That, that has, that's like kind of extreme.

• 23:18Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Touched by a ghost.

• 23:19Corinne Vien?

  Touched by a ghost.

• 25:10Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Have you ever been touched by a ghost?

• 25:11Speaker 03

  Yes, I've had a couple of them. One of them was at Holly's house. So it's actually her ex-husband's house now, but they have this beautiful house in Vegas and the guest house is haunted. And she kept telling us, well, the whole house is haunted, but the guest house was especially haunted. And people didn't like staying in there. And worker people that were like fixing it up and stuff were like, I'm out of here. Like that place is haunted. And she said, everyone has experience in there. You should bring your ghost hunting equipment one day and do a little investigation. So my friend and I drove to Vegas and we met up with Holly, went to her house. And she had asked a psychic to come and also like come and hang out with us and do the investigation with us. And at the last minute, she had to cancel for whatever reason. And so when we got there, we were like,

• 25:56Speaker 03

  well, let's just do the ghost hunt first now that we don't have to wait for somebody and then go to dinner after instead of the opposite way. And so we go in there and I'm like, kind of like just doing like a general read around the room with my K two meter and like just my spidey senses and stuff, you know, just what I feel. And then I'm like, I think we should go into this one that it has two bedrooms in the guest house. I'm like, let's just go in this one room. I'm feeling the most here. I'm getting some spikes on the K two meter. Like, I just feel like this room might be a good place to start. So we all plop down on the floor and we're sitting there and I'm asking questions. I'm like, oh, if there's anybody here, can you make a tap or something? And we hear a like a click. And we're all like, but I know, I'm not convinced that

• 26:39Speaker 03

  that's paranormal. So I'm like, can you do it again? And we hear a click again. But I'm still thinking that it could be something in the little kitchen area that's making this noise. And it just so happens to be timing out right when I ask. So I ask again, and we hear it again. And so Holly and and our friend Ashley are looking at each other going, my God, oh, my God. But I'm like, I don't know. I don't maybe, maybe because it is, you know, three times now, but I'm not convinced. I'm like, if there's somebody here, will you tap me? And all of a sudden, I felt like a poke in my shoulder blade, my right shoulder blade. I was like, you guys, something just poked me. And they're like, no, oh, my God. And we're like freaking out. And then the ghost hunt in shortly after

• 27:20Speaker 03

  that. And we are driving to dinner. And as we're driving to dinner, Holly's phone rings in the car. It's like, you know, hooked up to the car and everything. And she answers it. And it's the psychic. And she was like, hey, by any chance, did you guys already do the investigation? Because again, we weren't supposed to do it until like nine o'clock that night. Instead, we did it at like six o'clock or something. She's like, by any chance, did you guys already do that investigation at your house? And Holly's like, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, we just did it. We decided to do it before dinner and stuff. And she was like, oh, okay. Because I have the little girl that is haunting your guest house sitting in front of me right now. And she wanted me to say that she poked one of you in the back. And we all started screaming in the car.

• 28:04Corinne Vien?

  I am covered in chills right now.

• 28:06Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Who is this psychic? Because that like, that story verifies and validates for me her ability.

• 28:13Speaker 03

  Right? I'll have to ask Holly, because Holly goes through a few different psychics. So I'll have to ask her which one that was. I love it when you get like, because forever I would have been like, I don't know, like, maybe I was just imagining that, or maybe like, I don't, maybe my bra strap was twisted and like slipped around or so, you know, I try and think of any possibility, you know? But I'm like, oh my God, that was just, that was the confirmation I needed, 100%.

• 28:37Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Right. There's, in my mind, there's no doubt. Like, I believed it already, but then having the psychic call, wow.

• 28:43Corinne Vien?

  Oh my gosh.

• 28:44Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  That is amazing.

• 28:45Corinne Vien?

  And now you know who poked you too.

• 28:46Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Yeah.

• 28:46Corinne Vien?

  It's not just, oh, a spirit poked you. It's a little girl. You know exactly who it is.

• 28:51Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Wow.

• 28:51Speaker 03

  Yeah. And we had heard that there was a little girl, I think the psychic had said, she's from like the pioneer days. Um, wherever Holly's house was, was near like a, you know, you're in Vegas, so it's a desert, but there was a spring, a natural spring nearby.

• 29:04Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Oh, that's cool.

• 29:04Speaker 03

  And so when they were, you know, the wagon days and stuff going by, this would be a stop for a lot of people. And, um, they think that she died during one of those stops.

• 29:15Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Oh, wow.

• 29:15Speaker 03

  And is probably buried somewhere, well, at least died near the property, but possibly even buried near the property somewhere or on the property somewhere. Like unmarked type thing.

• 29:24Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Yeah. I mean, it sounds like not a terrible place to have been haunting as a ghost.

• 29:30Speaker 03

  Yeah, right.

• 29:31Corinne Vien?

  Especially if you, like, I feel like that would be a pretty sweet place to haunt or live because to see all of you guys doing your investigation. Like, I would, I would love to eavesdrop on.

• 29:41Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Sounds fun.

• 29:42Corinne Vien?

  You guys hanging out, right? Like, that's a great time. She picked a good spot.

• 29:46Speaker 03

  Yeah. Another time that I was touched is Holly and I were doing a, um, a pilot for a paranormal show, which didn't get picked up. But we were in the basement of the murder house from American Horror Story. It's the Rosenheim Mansion.

• 30:00Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Yeah.

• 30:01Speaker 03

  And, um, that's where we were doing our pilot show and investigation. And we had a psychic medium with us. Holly and myself, and then of course, camera crews and stuff. And we were sitting in the basement on the floor. And I was like, I feel like there's something behind me. And Holly had like the SLS camera and she turned it towards me. And the second she turned it towards me, the whole thing just powered down. Like, so we, it lost all its battery and it was just, it had just been fully charged.

• 30:27Corinne Vien?

  Oh my God, were you shitting yourself?

• 30:30Speaker 03

  Not yet, but I was like, okay, well, that's weird. And then I had my hand out. I'm trying to remember exactly how this happened. I said, if there's somebody here with us, will you touch my hands? And all of a sudden, I got this jolt through my finger, like electric jolt. Like a zap, like I touched something electric or something like, or like when, you know, you have too much static in your bedding or whatever, you feel that zap on your finger. And I was, oh, my God, something just zapped my finger.

• 30:58Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  It's so wild because every time Corinne and I have done a paranormal investigation, I've asked and like said out loud to the spirits, like, I'm open to being touched, like you can touch me. And I've never been touched, but twice now, you've, you've said, if there's a spirit, you can like tap me or touch me and it, they do. That's amazing.

• 31:17Speaker 03

  Yeah, but I will say I've been on a million investigations and I ask for it a lot and it usually does not happen. So I'm giving you the good stories of when it did.

• 31:27Corinne Vien?

  It's interesting too, that like the two times that you were touched, that it felt so different, right? Like one felt like a physical person poking you. And then the other one was just this like shot of electricity. It is really interesting how it can kind of manifest and, and feel different, even though the act might be the same from the spirit, like attempting to make contact.

• 31:46Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  So fascinating. Where have you most recently investigated?

• 31:50Speaker 03

  Actually, just this past weekend, I was at Bethany's Haunted Sweet Suite. It's a haunted Airbnb in Jackson, California. It's like the Gold Rush, old mining town. I just had her on my podcast a few weeks ago and she was like, oh, next time you're in town, you have to come and stay at the Airbnb. So it just happened to be my grandma's 106th birthday.

• 32:16Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Oh, my gosh. Happy birthday.

• 32:18Speaker 03

  Right? So I went home for that and my brother came from Michigan too. And I, I let Elsie know that I was coming into town and that I would love to go and stay there. So I went with my whole family, my stepdad, my mom, my brother, and Elsie was there too. And We were investigating her house and we, she also took me around like Jackson and to some of the businesses who also have had experiences and that she's friends with and they told me all their stories and the National Hotel, which is the historic hotel right in Jackson, the general manager like gave me a tour of the rooms and was telling me some of the stories there and they're gonna do my podcast coming up.

• 32:55Corinne Vien?

  That's so fun.

• 32:56Speaker 03

  Mm-hmm. It was a really amazing experience. But as far as something happening, it was a little quiet, I would say, although they did say my name on the recording. Like, we were doing an EVP, we were in the National Hotel and we were in the card room, which is where John Wayne used to play cards. It's down in the basement off the bar and we were doing an EVP session in there really quick. We didn't really have permission. I don't think they cared, but we didn't have permission really. So, well, we were, so we were trying to be kind of sneaky and we were in there doing it and it said my name. And when people say they hear it, I've always been like, is it though? Like, I have my, I guess I can

• 33:37Speaker 03

  hear how you could hear that, but I don't know if it's, if it is or not. But this one, I was like, like a second it happened, it was so clear and it was clearly my name. And my name's, my name's not weird, but it's definitely not that common where it's not like, oh, Joe is here, you know?

• 33:53Corinne Vien?

  Yeah, yeah.

• 33:54Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  EVPs are so hard and I feel like in the moment especially, they're really hard to hear. And then afterwards, when you like listen back, so many things you didn't hear in the moment come through.

• 34:05Corinne Vien?

  Yeah. Have you ever done the Estes method?

• 34:08Speaker 03

  Um, did I do it?

• 34:10Corinne Vien?

  Where you like, you put the headphones on and it goes through?

• 34:14Speaker 03

  I've been, no, no, I know what it is. I've been involved in the investigations and like asking the questions, but I haven't worn the, the blindfold and put the earphones on because I am terrible at hearing stuff. Like, I'm the worst. People hear all kinds of stuff and I'm like, they did? They said that? What? Really?

• 34:33Corinne Vien?

  That's how we feel too. Like, we've both tried it a couple of times and it's so hard to decipher what's happening. But you know who's really good at it? Who's a friend? Of all of ours is Ash.

• 34:45Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  She's so good at it.

• 34:46Corinne Vien?

  She's so good. And even like not using the Estas, just hearing anything coming out like she's, it's so clear. She'll be like, oh my gosh, they just said this. And we're like, what? And then you play it back and it's so clearly that word. Somehow she's got ears for ghosts. So.

• 35:00Speaker 03

  Interesting. That's a good person to have around then.

• 35:03Corinne Vien?

  When we do our investigation, all of us together, well.

• 35:06Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  We all have our own special skills. Ash will be Estas method. Bridget, you will be the touch. For the ghosts. I don't know what we have to offer.

• 35:16Corinne Vien?

  We'll figure it out.

• 35:19Speaker 03

  Well, that's good. That's good to know. Yeah, I'm bad. And I, and then I hate when people, I don't hate it. Like, I don't like hate on them when they tell me what it is, but I just hate it because I feel like, oh, now that's all I'm gonna hear. And like when they show it on TV shows and they put down the bottom, what they heard. I'm like, well now, how am I supposed to judge for myself what I thought it was? Like, what if I heard something totally different? How did you hear that? I don't know.

• 35:40Corinne Vien?

  That is tough. I'm curious. Okay. So I feel like you've had so many amazing opportunities, just like within television and travel and everything like that. But there's one show I used to watch of yours. It was, it was like Bridget's Sexiest Beaches. Is that what it was called? Okay. So obviously that wasn't a paranormal show, but I'm curious if on shows like that, if you've still, because you're so open and it seems like you also just like feel the vibe of places that other people might not peg as haunted. On shows like that, did you also find yourself still investigating the paranormal or interacting with the paranormal?

• 36:15Speaker 03

  I purposely incorporated paranormal in it as much as I could. Like when we were doing Key West, like we went and saw Robert the Doll. So I got to meet Robert the Doll for the first time. And in Hawaii, we did like this whole paranormal type thing where they were talking to, talking to me about the gods and the goddesses. And they took me on this paranormal hike and they were telling me about the soldiers that marched through at night and like, all their beliefs and stuff. And this rock formation that they believe has like a fa- a skull face in it. And like all kinds of things they were showing me on that. And then like, it's not so much paranormal, but like we, we incorporated pirate type stuff. And like going out to where they think like the pirate booty was, was.

• 36:57Speaker 03

  Rock island. And so I tried to incorporate like. As much of that type of stuff as I could onto the show.

• 37:03Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Yeah.

• 37:04Speaker 03

  Cause it is such like a passion of mine.

• 37:06Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Yeah, cause it's like, any place can be haunted.

• 37:09Corinne Vien?

  And also like, if you love the paranormal, we always try to find ways to bring it up, right?

• 37:13Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Yeah.

• 37:14Corinne Vien?

  I feel like I'm a great conversationalist at weddings because somehow I just end up with a group of people around me telling ghost stories.

• 37:21Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 37:21Corinne Vien?

  Which is not like a normal setting for it, but you know, people are drinking and then suddenly they're admitting to their ghost stories. And I'm writing them down in the notes app on my phone so I can tell it on the podcast.

• 37:31Speaker 03

  I love that.

• 37:33Corinne Vien?

  If you created a paranormal investigation group, who would your dream people be to be a part of your ghost hunting group?

• 37:40Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Aside from us, obviously.

• 37:41Corinne Vien?

  Yeah.

• 37:42Speaker 03

  Obviously, yeah. It's hard. Um, I prefer going into a place not to do like a hardcore investigation. I like to go into a place just to get an experience.

• 37:53Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Hmm.

• 37:53Speaker 03

  And so I don't necessarily need like a specific group of people with me that bring different things to the table. I think it's kind of nice having a psychic medium with us because they can tap into things that maybe, you know, I'm not catching on to or just get more information out of stuff.

• 38:10Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Yeah.

• 38:10Speaker 03

  But one person or a couple of people who have like a love for it too, or are super open minded to having an experience. Cause I think if you have people with you that aren't open minded to it, or don't want to have an experience, or scared of it, or whatever, that it will jeopardize the experience you have too.

• 38:29Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  I also feel like there's some level of like intimacy and trust required for paranormal investigations, like, cause Corinne and I always go about it with like utmost respect. And I feel like we, we all kind of agreed on this when we talked on your show, but like, we're not trying to make them perform. We're generally just.

• 38:48Corinne Vien?

  Yeah. Ghost hunting is such like a.

• 38:50Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Negative word.

• 38:51Corinne Vien?

  Yeah, it's not the right term to use because we're not like hunting anyone down and, and forcing them into something.

• 38:56Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  It's like an exploration and an inquiry of like, what do you have to share with us? What do you want to tell us?

• 39:02Corinne Vien?

  Like you were saying, just here for a potential experience.

• 39:05Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Yeah, but like you don't always know how other people feel going into an investigation. Like, are they gonna go in being like? I want demons to come through, or are they willing to be respectful?

• 39:19Speaker 03

  Yeah, you have to be careful of the energy, but I also like going, I mean, this sort of is contradictory, but I also like going with new people who have not done it before. Like, I really like introducing people to it at the same time.

• 39:31Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Yeah.

• 39:32Speaker 03

  But again, like, I don't just take any random, like, oh, off the street and be like, you ought to come with me. Like, it's people that I've talked to about it before and are showing a curiosity. I'm like, come with me, let's go do it.

• 39:42Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  So where else do you want to go, aside from everywhere? But like, what's on your top of your list?

• 39:47Speaker 03

  My bucket list is so long, and every time I do my show, I'm like, oh, I'm adding that to my list. Um, Waverly is one of the top places because I really want to see the creeper, the crawler. I mean, so many people have said that. I got a virtual tour on my old podcast with them. They like did a whole, they put me on like FaceTime and we did a whole tour through the place.

• 40:09Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  That's fun.

• 40:10Speaker 03

  But I feel like I just need to go there and experience it myself.

• 40:14Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Oh.

• 40:15Speaker 03

  Trans Allegheny is also high on my list. I just pulled out my notes.

• 40:17Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Yes.

• 40:18Speaker 03

  The Crescent Hotel.

• 40:19Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  I would love to go to the Crescent Hotel.

• 40:21Corinne Vien?

  I also have one suggestion for you too, and this is also a suggestion to Sabrina, because I've told you about it, we've covered it on the podcast, but I'm the only one out of the two of us who've gone. Have you, in Charleston, South Carolina, have you gone to the old Charleston jail?

• 40:34Speaker 03

  No, I've never been to Charleston, South Carolina. I've never been to South Carolina.

• 40:38Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Charleston's actually beautiful.

• 40:40Corinne Vien?

  It's beautiful and it's like, it's very rich and ghost stories and whatnot, but the old Charleston jail.

• 40:45Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  And also rich. Very wealthy town.

• 40:47Corinne Vien?

  Yeah. It's this like old dilapidated jail that they do ghost tours in, and it has just like really tragic history, but it reminds me, like, it feels almost like a mini Waverly Hills, because we were getting activity constantly throughout the whole thing. Shadow figures darting, like, people brush it, like, feeling other people brush up against you. And you're like alone in here, you hear the old keys. Like down the hall, jingling from, yeah, the old jail cells. But there was, you were talking about lollipops, but like, there was a wire that was just like disconnected coming out of the ceiling and it started like, it was like basically being like a yes, no, call and response.

• 41:30Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Whoa, like a pendulum?

• 41:31Corinne Vien?

  Yeah.

• 41:32Speaker 03

  Wow.

• 41:32Corinne Vien?

  I would add that to your list because I feel, maybe I was very lucky, but I do feel like, you know, I just signed up to go on the regular ghost tour to mostly learn about the history and just be in this old cool place and ended up getting so much paranormal activity around me and the group that I was with in like the 60 minute tour, whatever it was.

• 41:51Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  I walked past it when we were in Charleston last, two years ago now, and I walked past it in broad daylight, but it looked like the lighting changed surrounding that building. It was like as if I was looking at the building during nighttime, even though I was in daytime.

• 42:10Corinne Vien?

  There's a weirdness to it, but it's worth a visit.

• 42:13Speaker 03

  Yeah. Have you guys been to Velisca?

• 42:15Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  No. Have you?

• 42:17Speaker 03

  No, but it's on my list. I'm just going through my list here. There's so many.

• 42:21Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  So many.

• 42:22Speaker 03

  I mean, there's so many that I have done too, though, so that's good.

• 42:26Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  What else have you done?

• 42:27Speaker 03

  So I talked about the Stanley, Mansfield Reformatory. You know, they were so amazing there. You guys know Ohio State Reformatory, right? Or Mansfield and where they shot Shawshank Redemption. So a lot of people just call it the Shawshank Prison. But they waited up for me because I was there doing a Halloween convention and they waited up for me until like 12:30 at night till I was done with all of the things that I had to do with that. It was a PR person, a tour guide, that, a ghost hunting tour guide, and then a security guard. And that was it. And it was Nick and I, and they gave us a tour through the whole place. It was so incredible. I didn't have like an experience, but it was just an amazing time to be there and just like have it come to ourselves.

• 43:12Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  You're making me want to go paranormal investigate right now so badly.

• 43:15Corinne Vien?

  I know.

• 43:16Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Like so badly.

• 43:18Corinne Vien?

  Like not even plan, just be like, hey, can you let me in at one o'clock in the morning? Can you give me a tour? Just see what happens.

• 43:26Speaker 03

  Eastern State Penitentiary. So I used to have a show on Yahoo a long time ago. I don't know if you call it a show, but because it was on just like Yahoo online. But once a week I would do an animal show. It was called Animal Nation. It was like this cute story about animals of some sort and we were, we were all over the place with these stories. But then they asked me if I wanted to do like a six part Halloween special for them. I was like, um,

• 43:47Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Yes, yeah.

• 43:48Speaker 03

  Absolutely. And so we did different things, but they hooked me up to do, um, Eastern State Penitentiary. And so we went there and they, I got the full tour and they were like amazing there. I got locked into El Capone cell. And like, it was just so incredible. And now I heard they're not embracing the paranormal anymore.

• 44:07Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  How can you not?

• 44:08Corinne Vien?

  Which like, why does that happen? It's you already have the reputation. You can't get rid of the reputation. So just lean into it like that. And people love it.

• 44:16Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  I'm mad. I'm mad too.

• 44:18Speaker 03

  And I don't know if it's true. I don't know if it's a hundred percent true, but that's why I just, somebody just told me that on my podcast not too long ago. They're like, oh yeah, they're not really like, they're not doing that kind of stuff anymore there. And it's usually due to new management.

• 44:30Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Right. Well, they'll, they'll realize quickly. They have to lean back in.

• 44:34Corinne Vien?

  I feel like we should just create a management business now to reacquire all of the haunted places that have been stripped of their haunted titles.

• 44:42Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  There's a hotel that we covered in Denver, Colorado, and I can't remember what it's called, but their website like had like two whole pages about the haunted history. And so I called the hotel. I was like, let's just like call and see if they can tell me any ghost stories. And the woman who picked up was so short with me and like, was like, it's not haunted as far as we know. And I'm like, it literally says on your website, like, there's all this ghost history. As of like two months ago, all of that has been taken off of the website and like, it's a lot harder to find now.

• 45:12Speaker 03

  Oh, and you don't remember what hotel? Cause I did a ghost tour and started at a hotel for my last podcast. And it was called like the Oxford or the, it started with an O.

• 45:23Corinne Vien?

  We stayed at the Brown Palace.

• 45:24Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Oh, Brown Palace. Okay.

• 45:26Speaker 03

  That one's supposed to be haunted too. I haven't stayed there though.

• 45:28Corinne Vien?

  Okay. We both had a really weird haunting there that like, maybe it was a haunting, maybe it wasn't. We both. We were staying there on tour. We both, the same night, had a very similar dream about like a monstrous penis. So weird and very out of character for us to be dreaming about this, but we were both dreaming about this like really scary penis.

• 45:54Speaker 03

  Wait, you guys get a penis in a photo? Now you're dreaming of penis?

• 45:57Corinne Vien?

  I know, and they were years apart, too.

• 45:59Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  It's so weird.

• 45:59Corinne Vien?

  It was very weird.

• 46:00Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  It was very weird.

• 46:01Corinne Vien?

  We swear we're not that dick centric.

• 46:04Speaker 03

  Have you guys done, um, Virginia City at all?

• 46:06Corinne Vien?

  No.

• 46:06Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  No.

• 46:07Speaker 03

  It's in Nevada and it's an old mining town, but it's like the whole town is haunted, the entire town. And it's a great place to go investigating. It's a great place for like a newbie or a beginner because you're almost guaranteed to have something happen because the, literally the whole town.

• 46:22Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  You're making our list so much longer now.

• 46:25Corinne Vien?

  I know. Yeah, I definitely want to go to one of those old ghost towns. I feel like that's

• 46:29Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  They need to make like

• 46:30Corinne Vien?

  Just like an old western.

• 46:31Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  We need to develop a Goodreads, but for haunted places. And so like people can review the haunted places that they've been to and do like a where I want to visit.

• 46:41Corinne Vien?

  Yeah. It'll be a very niche app for just a specific group of people.

• 46:47Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Yeah.

• 46:47Corinne Vien?

  We'll use it.

• 46:48Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  I would use it all the time.

• 46:49Speaker 03

  I would too.

• 46:52Speaker 02

• 47:52Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Bridget, we have a little game for you.

• 47:55Speaker 03

  Yes.

• 47:55Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  And this is gonna help you maybe decide on some other places to visit and investigate.

• 48:01Speaker 03

  Okay.

• 48:02Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  So, we're gonna read like three synopses of haunted places. And you get to pick out of the three which one you want to go to. And then we'll tell you what the place is.

• 48:13Speaker 03

  Okay.

• 48:13Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  So, the first one is a place where spirits do not rest. They remember, they haunt, and they terrify. You're almost guaranteed to have a paranormal encounter here. Crumbling, long abandoned halls, hundreds of thousands of deaths, shadow figures, a death shoot, and children laughing.

• 48:32Speaker 03

  Okay, that sounds like Waverley.

• 48:36Corinne Vien?

  Something mysterious lurks behind the facade of glamour and glitz of this next place. Known for iconic parties and sultry happenings, this haunted location offers secret passageways, phantom footsteps, and some personal memories.

• 48:50Speaker 03

  Hmm, that could be a lot of places.

• 48:52Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  All right, this third one. If you're still looking for something royal, how about a fortress of fear with a haunting history? Torture, betrayal, major Catholic guilt, a headless ghost, starved prisoners, a lady in gray, and yes, ghost monkeys. It really has it all. Centuries of bloodshed and dark deeds means no corner is safe.

• 49:16Speaker 03

  Gosh, that sounds like the Tower of London or something. Um, I'm gonna go with the first one because it said paranormal guaranteed. I'm like, all right, it is.

• 49:27Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  The first one is Waverley Hills, and that last one was Tower of London.

• 49:33Speaker 03

  And then, okay, read me the second one again. Let me see if I can get it.

• 49:36Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Okay.

• 49:36Corinne Vien?

  Something mysterious lurks behind the facade of glamour and glitz of this next place. Known for iconic parties and sultry happenings, this haunted location offers secret passageways, phantom footsteps, and some personal memories.

• 49:52Speaker 03

  So, the Playboy man.

• 49:53Corinne Vien?

  Yes.

• 49:55Speaker 03

  Well, honestly, I would want to go there to like, check it out because they've been renovating it and stuff. So I really want to go and check it out. But I'm so curious if it's haunted. There was this podcast recently that had a butler on who was like, trying to say that it was never haunted and stuff. And I just have to say, just because you've never had an experience somewhere, does not mean it's not haunted.

• 50:17Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Completely agree. Yeah.

• 50:19Corinne Vien?

  You can never say definitively that a place is not haunted.

• 50:23Speaker 03

  He did.

• 50:24Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Well, he's wrong.

• 50:25Corinne Vien?

  Shame on him. What's his name? Let's, let's post it.

• 50:29Speaker 03

  I know. And not only that, but like, one of the encounters that I had there, two other people were with me and saw it at the same time. So you're calling all three of us a liar at the same moment.

• 50:40Corinne Vien?

  That's so insulting.

• 50:42Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Well, we have one more round.

• 50:43Speaker 03

  Oh, I'm so excited, though, that I like, got all the right.

• 50:46Corinne Vien?

  I know, you're three for three. Okay. Nestled in the woods, settled atop blood-soaked battlegrounds, a place so haunted, it inspired an iconic horror film. You'll be greeted by an array of ghosts, some playful, others unmistakably malevolent. You're sure to catch EVPs, feel cold spots, and maybe even witness light phenomena. But be careful, it might just be a gateway to something extraterrestrial.

• 51:13Speaker 03

  Ooh, okay.

• 51:15Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Forget one building, this haunted town offers delights by day and frights by night. Seeped with a history of death, betrayal, and murder, you are sure to experience vengeance-seeking ghosts, full-body apparitions, flickering lights, and the feeling of being watched. This historical place is remembered not for its beauty, but for its horrors. From cursed cemeteries to cursed inns, good luck finding a place to stay that isn't haunted.

• 51:46Corinne Vien?

  I'm trying to figure out which place it is for myself. Okay. How would you like to step into the wilderness, get some fresh air, and stumble upon miles and miles of haunted happenings? Known for its hostile environment, this place has become a favorite for some unbecoming individuals, both dead and alive. Soldiers, hitchhikers, beasts. You'll have to determine what is real and what is not. But you'll enjoy nature as you do so. But just be careful where you step, and let someone know where you're going ahead of time.

• 52:17Speaker 03

  Ooh, okay. Well, those are harder ones. I mean...

• 52:25Speaker 03

  The Bridgewater Triangle?

• 52:26Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  It's close.

• 52:27Speaker 03

  Is that one of them?

• 52:27Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  That one was the Pine Barrens in New Jersey with like the Jersey Devil.

• 52:32Speaker 03

  The Pine Barrens, I don't really know that much about that. Is that where the, the New Jersey Devil is supposed to be?

• 52:37Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Yeah, mm-hmm. It's a pretty big area that the mafia, Italian mob is said to dump bodies as well, so.

• 52:46Speaker 03

  Oh, no.

• 52:47Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  There's a lot happening.

• 52:47Corinne Vien?

  There's a lot going on. Dense forest.

• 52:50Speaker 03

  And then the first one?

• 52:51Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Do you want us to read it again, or do you want to pick between the three first?

• 52:54Speaker 03

  Um, is one of them Gettysburg?

• 52:56Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  No.

• 52:57Corinne Vien?

  No, but honestly, the description for the second one could probably be applied to Gettysburg as well.

• 53:01Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  It could be, yeah. It was Salem, but I feel like, yeah, it's pretty.

• 53:05Corinne Vien?

  It's also Gettysburg.

• 53:08Speaker 03

  Salem, Gettysburg, you know? And what was the other one?

• 53:13Corinne Vien?

  The first one was the Conjuring House.

• 53:15Speaker 03

  Oh, okay.

• 53:17Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Cause they say that there's a lot of aliens and alien activity there.

• 53:20Speaker 03

  Right.

• 53:21Corinne Vien?

  And they've actually started, so this could be a new experience for you if you want to go to the Conjuring House and experience it outside of just the house. They've started camping. They call it glamping, ghost camping.

• 53:34Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  I don't know if they still do it.

• 53:36Corinne Vien?

  Or are they not doing it anymore?

• 53:37Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  I think they've like closed down the Conjuring to ghost tours recently.

• 53:41Speaker 03

  That's what I heard too. I heard that there was some weirdness going on over there.

• 53:44Corinne Vien?

  Who, who is this company that's buying all these fucking places? And now I'm like, now I feel very Scooby Doo where like there's one evil masked person who's going into all of our favorite places and ruining them.

• 53:58Speaker 03

  But you know what? The alien thing, okay, this is gonna sound crazy, like I can't get a show sold, but Nick and I also did a pilot for a paranormal show way a long time ago, like, like shortly after I left the mansion, I feel like. And his dad was an astronaut, one of the original Mercury astronauts back in the sixties. And so, um, he's always been fascinated by like aliens and things like that. And so we had a show where we were gonna go to places that had both alien stories and like paranormal ghost stories and things and like see if there's like a connection or like what we experience when we go there and stuff. We did our pilot in Julian, California. It's over by, kind of like on the outskirts of San Diego.

• 54:41Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Okay.

• 54:42Speaker 03

  And it's up in kind of like the mountains and stuff. And this town is like really haunted. There's a old historic hotel there that's haunted. That's where we stayed and did our ghost tour. But then they also have had. UFO sightings and things like that there. And there's a guy who does like these star tours at night where you go and look at the telescope and he's pointing everything out. So we added that to it and then we went down into the old mine and went panning for gold.

• 55:06Corinne Vien?

  Oh, my God.

• 55:06Speaker 03

  Things like that.

• 55:07Corinne Vien?

  That's so cool.

• 55:08Speaker 03

  The whole thing. So like anytime where like the aliens are also involved, like I'm have a special interest, not because I want to, because I know I'm going to get Nick to be interested.

• 55:18Corinne Vien?

  So you don't want to have an encounter with aliens?

• 55:21Speaker 03

  I don't know. See, I believe they exist. I believe they're here. And I don't know if it's for our better good. I've heard too many different things going on, but I I'm a little afraid of them.

• 55:39Corinne Vien?

  Yeah, I feel that too. Sabrina has long been like, abduct me. I want to be abducted. And then I've been like, no, I don't fuck with aliens at all. But more recently, I have been open to participating in a CE5 event. Because it doesn't guarantee you're going to be abducted. It's more of just like, will you see the UFOs in the sky?

• 55:58Speaker 03

  Oh, I'm OK with that. And I may have seen that. So my husband's family has a 500 acre ranch out in Colorado and there's nothing on it, except for like an old homesteaded cabin from the 1800s, which we just, we just use it to store stuff. Like you don't, you do not want to stay in there. And not because it's haunted, but you'll get that. What is it? The norovirus or whatever? It's like droppy. Like, it's not good. But there's a ton of cows. They lease the land to like graze cows on and things like that. And every year in the summertime, we go there and we camp on it for a couple of days. And one night we were sitting out by the campfire and it's not that late, but it always feels later when you're camping and you know, it gets nighttime and stuff like. So I think it was probably like maybe 10 o'clock or whatever.

• 56:42Speaker 03

  And to get to the the actual ranch, you have to go down this long ass road. Like it takes. You go down a dirt road first, that's like more public, but then you turn off of that road to a even like more dirt road with like potholes and like, like not kept like the other one. And there's a gate and everything and, and then you drive for like another fifteen minutes down. And so we're like way deep in there and it butts up to the national forest. So it's very isolated. It's very out there. My husband and his brother and me, that's who was camping. And then one of them noticed at the end of the road, they're like, what are those lights down there? There was like these like little lights. I make it look like they were dancing around. They weren't.

• 57:24Speaker 03

  They were just kind of like sitting there at the, and it looked like it was very, like right at the end of the driveway. Interesting. Which is very far though. Yeah. But we're like looking at it and I'm like not believing them. I feel like they're just like whatever. And I'm not paying attention. And then they were, then they're both like really checking it out and they're like, yeah, what is that? I think that's an alien. And Nick's like, you gotta come over here and check this out. Like I think this might be an alien. And I'm like, are they fucking with me? Like what's going on? And so I go and I look and sure enough, there are these lights and it looks to me like somebody has a drone. That's just sitting there. But like it's 10 o'clock in the mi- in the night, in the middle of nowhere, Colorado. Like why would somebody have a drone? Right. At the end of our driveway. Yeah.

• 58:08Speaker 03

  But like we're watching it and it's just sitting there. It never did anything and the story doesn't go anywhere from that. But I just, I, that's the only time I question whether, did I really see? How long did it stay there for though? It was still there when we went to bed. That's so weird.

• 58:22Corinne Vien?

  It feels like nope with the cloud that just hovers in the sky. But yeah. That is really bizarre.

• 58:29Speaker 03

  It was the very first year that I met Nick, he went to the ranch with a friend and they found a cow that had been mutilated. Oh, that's so sad. And he said, it's crazy. It is crazy because it is laser precision. What? Weird. So it's not just like it got struck by lightning or like something got it or something.

• 58:50Corinne Vien?

  That's also just like unsettling to come across, but.

• 58:53Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  That's a lot of land, open land, that like if people aren't there all the time, who knows what happens on the land?

• 58:59Corinne Vien?

  I know.

• 59:00Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 59:00Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Like if I'm an alien, I'd be like, yeah, this is a perfect place for me to stop and dissect a cow.

• 59:05Corinne Vien?

  Oh, you should encourage him to put up trail cams just randomly every like 10 acres to pop up a camera to see what happens.

• 59:13Speaker 03

  We should. The scariest thing that happened was just this last summer. We went for a hike and we were walking down this little, I don't know, I guess just down the hill for lack of a better term. And Nick's brother and his girlfriend were at the top of the hill still, like on the ridge. And we were walking down and there's like just all this like shrubbery and brush beside us. And all of a sudden he yells out, moose, moose. And we're like, what? And all of a sudden, we see this giant bull moose head peek out over the bushes and look at us. And we're, and those things are so mean, you guys.

• 59:46Corinne Vien?

  Oh, my gosh.

• 59:48Speaker 03

  Oh, my God. And we're like slowly backing up.

• 59:51Corinne Vien?

  Right. Well, they're extremely territorial and they're massive. Like if that thing charges at you, you're, you're done.

• 59:58Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Damn.

• 59:59Speaker 03

  So huge. It took him like 10 gallops to go across the entire field, like something that takes us 30 minutes to walk back.

• 1:00:07Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Oh, my gosh. Well, this makes me think about our plan to go look for Bigfoot at the Bridgewater Triangle.

• 1:00:14Speaker 03

  Are there moose there?

• 1:00:15Corinne Vien?

  No.

• 1:00:16Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  But Bigfoot.

• 1:00:17Corinne Vien?

  Oh, but maybe we, maybe we should bring something stronger than our, our wits.

• 1:00:22Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Than our visors.

• 1:00:25Corinne Vien?

  I'll bring bear spray.

• 1:00:26Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Would you rather encounter a moose or a Bigfoot?

• 1:00:29Speaker 03

  Bigfoot, for sure.

• 1:00:32Corinne Vien?

  Okay, wait, there is one other creature aside from Bigfoot that's said to haunt the Bridgewater Triangle, which also if we come into contact with it, I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing, but apparently there's pterodactyls. People see pterodactyls in the sky. Don't you remember this?

• 1:00:48Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Yes, but it still blows my mind every time I hear it.

• 1:00:51Corinne Vien?

  There's, there's prehistoric dinosaurs in the sky in Bridgewater, Massachusetts.

• 1:00:56Speaker 03

  I was hoping you were gonna say it was a puckwudgie.

• 1:00:58Corinne Vien?

  Oh, no, but I think we'd all like to encounter the puckwudgie, right?

• 1:01:03Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  We also just recently learned about the Squonk, who is a cryptid from Pennsylvania. And it's like the saddest, ugliest cryptid, but it like is always crying.

• 1:01:15Speaker 03

  It's part skunk, right?

• 1:01:17Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Um, no, it kind of looks like a pig. And a pug?

• 1:01:22Speaker 03

  Oh.

• 1:01:23Corinne Vien?

  Yeah, it's just, it's um, it's not attractive and it knows it unfortunately.

• 1:01:28Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  And it cries a lot. It's like very depressed.

• 1:01:31Corinne Vien?

  Yeah, it's really sad. If you encounter one or if you kind of like corner one, it will just cry itself into a puddle and disappear.

• 1:01:38Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Yeah.

• 1:01:39Speaker 03

  What? That's so sad.

• 1:01:40Corinne Vien?

  I know. It's so cute, though.

• 1:01:43Speaker 03

  Oh, I don't know about him.

• 1:01:46Corinne Vien?

  Well, we'll all have to get together soon and actually do our investigation.

• 1:01:49Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Yeah.

• 1:01:50Corinne Vien?

  So we'll make some plans. But Bridget, thank you so much for joining us and for playing our game with us and talking about paranormal. It's something that obviously all of us could talk about all day long.

• 1:02:00Speaker 03

  For sure.

• 1:02:01Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Can you tell everyone where to find you and if you have anything exciting coming out, what they can be excited for?

• 1:02:08Speaker 03

  Yes, um, I am at Bridget Markor on Instagram. That's where I'm most active. There's a Twitter out there, too. I only post just like when I have something to promote on there and Facebook, which I never go to, so don't bother there. Just Instagram.

• 1:02:22Corinne Vien?

  You sound like me where I'm like, oh, this social media, but I never log in.

• 1:02:26Speaker 03

  I know. And then I have YouTube. I have YouTube for my Ghost Bunny Podcast and it's at Ghost Bunny Podcast. And then I have Instagram for Ghost Bunny Podcast as well. And it's Ghost Bunny Podcast. And then I also do the Girls Next Level Podcast with my co-host Holly. And we talk about, we, it's a rewatch podcast for the girls next door. So we have a lot of fun on that. That's everything that's going on.

• 1:02:52Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  Amazing.

• 1:02:53Corinne Vien?

  And we will.

• 1:02:54Sabrina Deana-Roga?

  See you on the other side.
