In today’s episode of the 222 Paranormal Podcast, hosts Joe and Jennifer delve deep into one of Virginia's most chilling and mysterious locations: the infamous Old House Woods. Located in the heart of the state, this eerie forest has long been a hotspot for paranormal activity and ghostly legends. Joe and Jennifer, both seasoned paranormal investigators, return to these woods to unravel the disturbing stories that have haunted the area for centuries. With a history steeped in mystery, Old House Woods has been the site of countless eerie encounters, from the sounds of disembodied footsteps and voices to sightings of shadowy figures and unexplained lights flickering through the trees. As they explore this notoriously haunted area, they discuss the origins of the hauntings, which many attribute to its grim past involving shipwrecks, buried treasure, and a long-standing history of tragic events. The hosts share chilling firsthand accounts from locals and fellow investigators who claim to have witnessed paranormal phenomena in the area. Jennifer recounts a particularly unsettling story of an encounter with a ghostly figure near the remains of an old home once standing in the woods. The hosts also delve into theories about the land’s energy and why Old House Woods might be such a focal point for paranormal activity. Is it the residual energy from centuries of shipwrecks and death, or does the location possess something far darker? Throughout the episode, listeners are treated to a mix of history, mystery, and eerie encounters, as Joe and Jennifer attempt to shed light on the terrifying phenomena that make Old House Woods one of Virginia’s most haunted places. Their conversation offers listeners a thrilling mix of ghost stories, expert analysis, and suspenseful exploration.

In Mathews County of Virginia, off the coast of Gloucester, is the small, unassuming town of Diggs. It’s a cozy little place, surrounded by the Chesapeake Bay, offering coastal views and respite. It seems normal, boring in fact. But don’t let the views fool you!  For if you travel down the Beach Haven Road just outside of town, you come to a 50-acre patch of dense woodland. The Old House Woods is so full of paranormal activity and apparitions that it may be the most haunted woods in America. Where else can you find ghost pirates searching for their lost gold?  British Redcoats stalking the night?  Armored skeletons asking for directions and even…headless ghost cows?

The Old House Woods was a scary place when the colonists came to this country. The dense woods along the ocean were so thick the sky couldn’t be seen through the tree limbs. It was the perfect port for men to hide and lay low from the law. Thieves and pirates were so notorious in the area that travelers were warned to stay away from the woods. The woods were used as a secret port by both Revolutionary sailors and Civil War ones.

The woods were filled with stories of thievery and murder before the first incident even occurred.  The name Old House Woods actually reflected the fact that in the late 1700s an old colonial building stood in the middle of the woods. It was abandoned and believed to be full of angry spirits. The house, called the Frannie Knight house, spontaneously caught on fire.  Then, it to put itself back out with no intervention. Years later, the same house caught fire again.  But, this time it allowed itself to reduce the house to dust. The forest has since taken the house’s remains back.

In this episode of the 222 Paranormal Podcast, hosts Joe and Jennifer delve deep into the chilling and eerie history of the Black Forest of Colorado. Known for its dense woods and ominous atmosphere, the Black Forest has long been a site of unsettling occurrences and unexplained phenomena. The hosts take listeners on a journey through the forest's dark past, exploring stories of paranormal sightings, ghostly apparitions, and strange happenings that have baffled locals for decades. OE and Jennifer discuss numerous accounts of encounters with shadowy figures, unexplained voices, and the sense of being watched that many visitors have reported while hiking or camping in the area. As they investigate the forest's eerie reputation, they touch on the region's historical significance, including Native American legends and early settler tales that suggest the forest has been a hotspot for the supernatural for centuries. The hosts also explore the idea that the energy of the land might be connected to the area's tumultuous history, with conflicts between indigenous tribes and settlers leaving behind a lingering spiritual presence. Throughout the episode, OE and Jennifer engage with listeners by inviting them to consider the Black Forest's mysterious aura, while also encouraging them to share their own experiences with paranormal activity. They delve into the psychology behind why places like the Black Forest have such a magnetic pull on the curious and adventurous, drawing people in despite the unsettling stories that surround it. By the end of the episode, listeners are left with an eerie sense of wonder, pondering whether the Black Forest is truly haunted, or if its reputation is the product of a centuries-old mystery that refuses to be solved.

The Legend of the flying dog, know as Aralez.

The aralez are most prominently associated with the story of the legendary Armenian king Ara the Handsome. According to this legend, the Assyrian queen Semiramis (Shamiram) called on the aralez to lick the wounds of and revive Ara the Handsome after he was killed in battle. By popular interpretation, this was the origin of the word aralez, from the name "Ara" and lez, the root of the word lizel 'to lick'. According to the Armenian history attributed to Faustus of Byzantium, after Mushegh Mamikonian was killed, his relatives placed his corpse on a tower, hoping that the aralezes would revive him.This indicates that belief in the aralez was still current in fourth- and fifth-century Armenia, following the Christianization of the country.

Whispers Beneath the Beams: The Haunting of Covered Bridges

Haunted covered bridges are an intriguing aspect of American folklore, often associated with mystery, tragedy, and the supernatural. These old, covered wooden structures, which once served as vital passageways for travelers, now stand as eerie landmarks. Located primarily in rural, isolated areas, many haunted covered bridges are linked to dark and tragic events, such as fatal accidents, unsolved murders, or disappearances. The haunting tales that surround these bridges often involve restless spirits, lingering from the past, whose lives were abruptly cut short. For example, the Blair Covered Bridge in Ohio is infamous for being the site of a woman’s murder, with reports of her ghostly presence wandering the area. The legend has it that her apparition still roams the bridge, crying out for justice or lost love. Similarly, in Pennsylvania, the "Ghost Bridge" near the small town of Sewickley is said to be haunted by the spirits of a family who died in a tragic crash. The eerie isolation and history of these structures make them a perfect setting for ghost stories. Those who venture into these bridges often report strange occurrences, such as inexplicable cold spots, the sounds of footsteps or whispering voices, and the sudden appearance of shadowy figures. Some even claim to see ghostly figures standing on the bridge, vanishing as quickly as they appear. Despite their spooky reputations, these haunted bridges also hold a sense of beauty and nostalgia, standing as silent witnesses to the past. Whether one believes in the paranormal or not, haunted covered bridges continue to captivate the imagination, blending history, legend, and mystery into unforgettable stories of the supernatural.

the Sachs Covered Bridge Gettysburg

Built in 1852 by David S. Stoner, the Sachs Covered Bridge extends 100 feet and serves to connect land separated by Gettysburg’s Marsh Creek. For more than a century it allowed vehicles and pedestrians access in their travels.

However, due to weakening abutments over the decades, this beautiful historic landmark was closed to all automobiles by 1968. Almost 30 years later, flooding caused the bridge to be shaken from its foundation, requiring over half a million dollars to fully restore it with steel support beams.

While certainly more structurally sound than ever, it is today open only to foot traffic. Throughout the years, township officials considered reopening the bridge for vehicular use. But each time, the bridge’s preservation outweighed any change in operation.

When the Battle of Gettysburg broke out in July of 1863, the town of Gettysburg was turned upside down by the brutality that permeated the land. Since a vast majority of Union and Confederate soldiers were young men, there were instances that saw some of them attempt to abandon their posts and go into hiding.

One such occasion involved three Confederate troops who tried to evade the war by donning Union attire. Marching with the North near Sachs Covered Bridge, they were soon discovered as belonging to the South and were promptly made an example.

It’s argued as to whether they were spies, deserters, or outright traitors. Regardless, the three young men were hanged from the bridge’s wooden support beams, ensuring that any Confederates passing through would see the executed men, thereby serving as a warning.

 Sadly, this is only the tip of the proverbial iceberg when it comes to the harrowing accounts that took place during the infamous Battle of Gettysburg. As a part of the American Civil War, it saw tens of thousands of lives lost in the line of duty.

Ohio is home to a staggering number of haunted locations, each steeped in history, mystery, and eerie folklore. From abandoned buildings to cemeteries, old theaters, and even entire towns, the Buckeye State has a diverse array of sites that have earned reputations for being haunted by restless spirits. One of the most famous and terrifying locations is the Ohio State Reformatory in Mansfield, a former prison that housed some of the state’s most notorious criminals. This imposing Gothic structure, which closed its doors in 1990, is often cited as one of the most haunted places in Ohio. The prison has witnessed countless tragedies, from violent prisoner uprisings to harsh conditions, which have left lingering energy throughout its halls. Visitors frequently report strange noises, shadowy figures, and even full-body apparitions, making it a popular destination for ghost hunters and thrill-seekers alike.

Another notorious haunted location is the Franklin Castle in Cleveland, a massive Victorian mansion built in the 1800s. The castle is said to be haunted by the spirits of the Tiedemann family, who lived there during the late 19th century. The mysterious deaths of several family members, including children, have fueled rumors that the house is cursed. Some stories suggest that the mansion’s original owner, Hans Tiedemann, was involved in the tragic deaths, and the hauntings are a result of the family’s unresolved grief. Visitors to the Franklin Castle have reported hearing footsteps, seeing apparitions, and feeling sudden drops in temperature, all of which contribute to the house’s chilling reputation.

Ohio also boasts some spooky cemeteries, with one of the most notable being Woodland Cemetery in Dayton. Known for its Gothic atmosphere and sprawling grounds, Woodland Cemetery is home to many ghost stories. Local legends speak of mysterious figures seen wandering the grounds at night, as well as ghostly apparitions that appear among the graves. Other visitors have reported hearing ghostly whispers and the sound of footsteps echoing through the cemetery when no one is around. The cemetery’s eerie aura has made it a popular site for paranormal investigations.

One of Ohio’s most famous haunted sites is the Moonville Tunnel, located in the Appalachian region near McArthur. Built in the 1850s, the tunnel was once a vital part of the railroad system. Today, it is the site of numerous ghost stories and legends. The most prominent tale involves the spirit of a railroad brakeman who was reportedly struck by a train and killed while working in the tunnel. His ghost, along with other apparitions, is said to haunt the area, with reports of strange lights, eerie sounds, and even sightings of the ghostly brakeman himself. The Moonville Tunnel is particularly known for its otherworldly atmosphere, especially when the fog rolls in during the early morning hours.

The Loveland Castle, located in Loveland, is another Ohio landmark that is said to be haunted. Built in the 1920s by a man named Harry D. Andrews, the castle has an eerie, medieval charm. Andrews, who dedicated his life to creating the castle, is said to still haunt the property, along with the spirits of his family members. Visitors have reported hearing strange sounds coming from the castle, as well as seeing shadowy figures in the windows. The castle’s dark, historic past has made it a prime location for those interested in exploring Ohio’s haunted heritage.

These locations are just the beginning of Ohio’s haunted history, which extends across the state from the haunted theaters of Cincinnati to the ghost-filled streets of old mining towns in the hills of Appalachia. Each site holds its own unique blend of tragic history and supernatural phenomena, making Ohio a rich destination for those intrigued by the paranormal. With so many haunted locations, it’s no wonder that the state is considered one of the most eerie and ghost-ridden in the United States.
