McMenamins Edgefield, Ep. 133

Posted on June 28, 2016 by History Goes Bump Posted in Haunted Location .

McMenamins Edgefield is located in Troutdale, Oregon and it is an historic hotel that features a little bit of everything from fine dining to concerts to a movie theater to a distillery and brewery to a spa and golf.  The spot once housed the county poor farm and as we know from prior experience with other podcasts, these locations sometimes leave an essence of negativity that lead to hauntings. There are several spirits here and some of them seem to be hitchhiking ghosts like our infamous friends at the Haunted Mansion. We are joined on today’s episode by our listener Jonathan Fishleder as he shares his visit to the location, the creepy feelings and experience that he had while there and how one of those entities decided to follow him home and what he did to get rid of it! Join us as we explore the history and hauntings of McMenamins Edgefield! The Moment in Oddity features the Crooked Forest of Poland and This Day in History is by April Rogers-Krick and features the beginning and ending of World War I. Our location was suggested by listener Jonathan Fishleder and our research assistant was Lynsey Smith!

The Occidental Hotel, Ep. 132

Posted on June 23, 2016 by History Goes Bump Posted in Haunted Location .

The Occidental Hotel is a historic hotel in the town of Buffalo, Wyoming. The area is a place that has seen gold diggers come through during the Gold Rush and people making their way West on the Oregon Trail. Outlaws have been through as well as heroes of the American West. And a well known battle of class warfare took place here during the days of cattlemen. The town is also the setting for A & E’s drama “Longmire.” The Occidental Hotel was in the middle of much history, but after a steady decline for the town, it almost was lost to the wrecking ball. Today, it has been restored to a grand hotel once again, giving guests a chance to go back in time to the old west. And just like so many tales of the West, this one has a ghosts story or two. Join us as we explore the history and hauntings of the Occidental Hotel! The Moment in Oddity is by Bob Sherfield and features The Williamson Tunnels and This Day in History is by April Rogers-Krick and features the Winnie Mae’s Round World Trip. Our location was suggested by listener Sarah Gunther and our Research Assistant was Steven Pappas.

Cliffside Inn, Ep. 131

Posted on June 18, 2016 by History Goes Bump Posted in Haunted Location .

Newport, Rhode Island has been the summer playground for Presidents like Eisenhower and Kennedy and also for the rich, which is evident in the many mansions that dot the seaside town. Some of these mansions date back to the Colonial Era. The Cliffside Inn is one of the mansions here and today it serves as a bed and breakfast. The most notable family to live at the Cliffside Inn is the Turner Family and they have an unusual and interesting history. Although the Turner Family is long gone, it would seem that their spirits have remained with the home that was so much a part of their life. Today, we are joined by our listener Suzy Duhme to get her first hand account of the Cliffside Inn and some of the spooky experiences she and her friends have had! The Moment in Oddity is by Lisa Nielsen and features the Wooden Doll of Egeskov and This Day in History is by April Rogers-Krick and features Amelia Earhart crossing the North Atlantic.

The Life and Afterlife of Geronimo, Ep. 129

Posted on June 8, 2016 by History Goes Bump Posted in Haunted Person .

The Apache warrior Geronimo is a legend, but he was once just a man who had a family. The death of his loved ones at the hands of the Mexicans pushed Geronimo into becoming a fighter. The Anglos would constrict the Apache way of life and Geronimo would retaliate in ways that would embarrass the US government. He escaped capture time and again. Eventually, he would surrender and then he would become a celebrity in captivity as he was ushered to world fairs and western shows. Such an enduring spirit could not be snuffed out by death. Reports abound from many different locations that Geronimo’s apparition has been seen and his spirit has been felt. Join us as we explore the life and afterlife of Geronimo! The Moment in Oddity is by Bob Sherfield and features Bamahenge and This Day in History is by Steven Pappas and features the Hollywood Communist Report.

Fairfield Hills State Hospital and Charles Island, Ep. 128

Posted on June 3, 2016 by History Goes Bump Posted in Haunted Location .

Fairfield Hills State Hospital was a state run mental health facility in Connecticut that was opened to alleviate the overcrowding in other asylums. The facility was pleasing to the eyes from the outside, but within its walls unspeakable acts were taking place. This was not a place of rehabilitation, but more a place of experimentation. Just as we have found to be the case at other asylums during this time period, barbaric practices were followed and many “mysterious” deaths were the result. This has led to the typical result: hauntings. We also will share the curse of Charles Island, which is not far from Newtown, and it involves pirates! But is there only one curse on this island or could there be more? Join us as we explore the history and hauntings of these two Connecticut locations. The Moment in Oddity is by Bob Sherfield and features Mother Shipton and This Day in History is by Steven Pappas and features First American Space Walk. This location is suggested by listeners Paige Sherman and Michael Rogers and our Research Assistant is April Rogers-Krick.
