Giving Up The Ghost

Mini-Manitoba Ghost Stories Back for more Paranormal poo-poo with your Audio Curators, Jas and Sher. This week’s episode is a quickie as we focus on the amazing book called Prairie Ghosts – True Manitoba Ghost Stories written by Lois Frosberg from 1992. It is an amazing collection and we are grateful to have found this wonderful gem! During this episode we also brought back a favorite – The magnetic Sphere of Fortune – to ask the spirits some insightful questions (all depend on how you look at it I guess) we did a ‘Facebook Live’ session while we ask the questions, and frankly were a little freaked out by the answers.

Creepy Falcon Lake Grandpa GhostBack in the Paranormal Saddle, Jas and Sher, your Audio Curators return to the PodShop to get their spooky on and talk about a traditional Manitoba Ghost Story. Falcon Lake Manitoba has had its share of creepy stories including the famous UFO Encounter experienced by Stephen Michalak. Another urban legend that we cover on today’s episode involves an abandoned farmhouse located down a deserted dirt road in the middle of nowhere. Imagine exploring such a place to only find – You are NOT alone. Just because a persons is deceased, doesn’t mean they have to leave their home, right? We ask, would you have the nerve to explore an abandoned house, deep in the forest miles away from any sign life, late at night?

Ramblesode – Whistling at Night OmensReunited (in the flesh) and it feels so good! Its been a long time coming and after our 6 month Covidcation – Jas and Sher, Your Audio Curators, are back at it again – recording LIVE – together in the same location. This time around they are in the PodShop – 3 feet apart we can assure you. After a quick Catchup (yes we are yakky girls) we get down to business and discuss the conscience’s of whistling in the dark. What does it mean when you hear random whistling in the dark at night? And better yet, what happens when you yourself whistle. Are the dead listening and decide to come out of hiding because you are summoning them? This week’s topic will definitely wet your whistle for the paranormal you’ve been waiting for.

Ramblesode: Alien Blood (aka RH Negative)Have you heard of it? Do you have RH Negative Blood? It really is a strange topic. To think that among all the different blood types there are 4; A-, B-, AB-, and O- that is so different, the consequences are deadly! If you have this type of blood and try to have a child with someone who has Positive blood, your blood could look at your fetus as foreign and attack it as a threat. This is partly the reason why 50 and 60 or more years ago why people had to take a blood test before they got married. Sometimes it is referred to as the ‘Bloodline of the Gods’, as some believe that RH Negative types are a result of extraterrestrials tampering with human genetics. HOWEVER without going on with all the Conspiracy theories ( there are plenty of websites, forums and podcasts that handle that portion) Jas and Sher, your Audio Curators, discuss in this ‘Quickie’ episode, the different aspects, rarity and personality traits, known of with having RH negative blood. As well we start

Hamilton House Revisited – 100th Episode GUTGAmazing how it all comes together! Today’s episode is the 2nd Anniversary of Giving up the Ghost Podcast, as well as our 100th Episode. The Hamilton House, thought to be the origin of Spiritualism and Psychical research in 1920s Winnipeg, was our inaugural episode. We were so fascinated by the history we knew that if there was any topic to enter the Podcast Ocean with - this would be that one. Fast forward two years and 100 episodes later - here we are! We decided nothing more appropriate than to cover this subject again since it has been our most downloaded episode to date (around 600). As well, Dr. Hamilton and Hamilton House along with all the family’s research is also the most explored file at the University of Manitoba Archives. We were honoured to interview local and world renowned Writer, Researcher, Urologist and Fortean Chris Rutkowski for this episode. Chris had researched and wrote about Hamilton House as well as had a personal connection in that he was

The Legend of KrampusSo nice....we covered it twice!!! Due to Covid we needed a little break and thought since this is the week of Krampus - what better way to reminisce then re-airing on of our favorites from last year! St. Nicholas’s ying to his yang. You can’t have good without bad and why should bad children benefit from getting gifts from Santa? They need to repent….they need to pay for their wicked behaviour!!! Back in the day, all the rotten children were told the tale of Krampus – Santa’s evil – devil looking brother who roams the Germanic Europe landscape looking for devious children to carry away and punish….beat with a birch sticks….and / or possibly drown and sometimes……. drag to hell – that should learn them into good behaviour. Jas and Sher celebrate this Christmas episode by talking about the character known throughout Europe as the infamous ‘Krampus’. Jas and Sher have also been discussing about instituting a Krampus parade to happen annually in Winnipeg….stay tuned…….Your Audio Curators wish

The Brown House – St. James’ Haunted MuseumJas and Sher, your Audio Curators, are always excited to find new locations that are haunted and barely known. On this week’s 90th Episode they discuss ‘The Brown House’, originally built and lived in by the Brown family located in the parish of Headingley along the Assiniboine River in 1956. Now this Historical family home is used for education purposes and proudly sits in St. James as one of the three buildings that hold exhibits and has programs to tell the story of the communities of St. Francis-Xavier, Headingley, St. Charles and St. James.The Brown House has a kitchen, parlour and dining room on the first floor and four bedrooms on the second floor…..and GHOST! Known to be very active, many have seen things levitate and even at night time sprits roam around and seem to have a party as everything is moved around by morning’s opening time. There is said to be the sounds of a giggling little girl and soldier asking for directions to the non-existent airfield. ****

Shadow People Attachment in Winnipeg***Warning **** if the subject of attachments or possession creeps you out, you may want to bypass this weeks episode. This week’s Jas and Sher, your Audio Curators bring you a topic that no parent wants to encounter. Laura, a new listener was kind enough to share her family’s experience about her teenage son having something attach to him.How do you differentiate between moody teenage angst and a darker and more brooding persona that has nothing to do with hormones? It’s a fine line but definitely a parent knows. Laura discusses the events that unraveled as well as the Shadow person that would follow her son in which he acknowledged his very concerning situation. Had it not been for chance encounter with a Light Worker who then got Laura in touch with a Shaman, her son could have potentially spiraled to a place of no recovery.

Creepy Morris Manitoba Mystery On this 87th episode Jas and Sher, your Audio Curators, talk to Maria who had some very, very scary interactions with a ghost. While a teen growing up in Morris, Manitoba, both herself and her mother witnessed a ghost hand reaching through a sweater at the same time! A little unnerving to say the least! In fact, the way this spirit continued to communicate every night thereafter would be categorized as threatening. But, her hauntings did not end there. Things continued on for her in later years while married and raising her 2 boys in a different hometown. However this seemed to be a gentler and friendly ghost that played with her son. Listen to this week’s personal experience and it will make you believe there is something on the other side. Jas & Sher want to thank Jack Kirby @ Paranormality Radio for listing GUTG on their Paranormal Podcast Directory – Much Ghost Love back!
