Built on farm land in 1917 the Toledo or Whitehouse Work house was build to send prisoners to hard labor for crimes committed. In 1966 prisoners rioted against the deplorable and horrific conditions they were subject to. Eventually the build went abandoned and due the poor structure, mold and decay the build was demolished. 

Prior to that tear down some investigators, were brave enough to investigate (illegally, which we never recommend) 

In the this episode we talk to one such individual who braved the ghosts and grime and brings us his tale of the Toledo Workhouse.

The Dogman is described as a seven foot tall blue eyed or amber eyed canine with the torso of a man. This creature has been sighted all over the world as far back as recorded history. It is said that it shows up in 10 year cycles ending in 7. 

Many types have been described from K-9 to more sasquatch like.

Listen in as we bring all the info on the elusive dogman.

Losing someone is never easy. It's hard to talk about it. Being with someone when they pass is even more difficult. This is the story of my best friend Jackie who died suddenly. And the effects that I (Joe) had. 

Joe, host of the 222 Paranormal Podcast opens up to the listeners about his very personal experience of losing his best friend Jackie.

We received an email so we thought we would talk a bit about the photo. As you remember there was a photo going around that might show an angle or a soul leaving the body of a motorcycle rider as they lay on the ground. Is it a fake or a real photo?

Since the dawn of photography, people have been trying to capture the essence of the human spirit.

Listen as we talk ghost photos!

At Cave-In-Rock in southern Illinois, atop the high bluffs overlooking the scenic Ohio River, the heavily wooded park is named for the 55-foot-wide cave that was carved out of the limestone rock by water thousands of years ago.

In addition to the natural splendor of the cave itself, the park contains hiking trails of moderate difficulty for exploration and appreciation of tranquil forests and inspiring views. There are three developed playground areas for children and shaded picnic areas situated throughout the park provide tables and grills.  Four large picnic shelters are available for group gatherings.

Death and mayhem abounded in this unique Cave that held pirates and prostitutes, gunmen and gangsters. Listen in as we tell the tales of the haunted history of Cave-In-Rock.
