Two Girls One Ghost

Corinne and Sabrina team up with Amanda Montell from Sounds Like a Cult Podcast to unpack the eerily familiar connections between cults, community, and the paranormal. From Amanda’s lifelong quest to conjure a ghost to her wild adventures uncovering cultish behaviors in everything from Trader Joe’s fandoms to evangelical hell houses, there’s no shortage of spooky, intriguing tales. Plus, Amanda reveals her dream of encountering a ghostly admirer at twilight—an oddly romantic twist that has us wondering: what kind of haunting would you want to manifest? 👻✨ But it doesn’t stop there! We’re diving into the darker side of human behavior, the overlap between religious cults and the paranormal, and how intuition plays a critical role in connecting us to the otherworldly. Also, wait until you hear about Amanda’s Glass Onion-inspired Halloween escape room—complete with witches, werewolves, and a chilling mystery to solve. 🧛‍♀️🧙‍♂️ If you’ve ever been curious about the line between cultish communities and ghostly gatherings, or you’re just here for a few laughs about evangelical theater kids’ haunted houses, this episode will have you hooked! 🔮 PS: Stick around to learn how our community helps manifest hauntings—because ghosts don’t just appear…sometimes, you summon them. ✨ Listen to the Cult of the Reborn Dolls Episode Have ghost stories of your own?

Imagine surviving impossible odds with the help of a mysterious, unseen presence—someone who’s there just when you need them most. This is the Third Man Syndrome, a paranormal phenomenon that’s as comforting as it is spine-chilling. Is it a guardian angel, a spirit guide, our brain trying to keep us alive... or the grim reaper? Join us as we dive into tales of people saved from the brink by a spectral ‘third man.’ This episode covers incredible stories of survival: lost explorers in the icy South Pole, a mysterious figure leading 9/11 survivors through smoke-filled towers, and even a handprint in the sand from an invisible helper. 👀 Our journey starts with Sir Ernest Shackleton’s doomed expedition to the South Pole, where he and his men endured the unimaginable. Lost on an iceberg and pushed to the brink, Shackleton’s team encountered something… or someone… who wasn’t part of the original crew. Through hurricanes, frozen seas, and the desperate fight for survival, the men swore they felt a presence guiding them across the icy wasteland, pushing them forward when all seemed lost. Against all odds, every member survived, but none could ever explain the mysterious “fourth man” who helped save them. From sailors to climbers to everyday folks like us, these stories make you question reality—could we all have an unseen companion waiting to save us? And don’t miss our own paranormal ponderings, with plenty of shivers and laughs along the way. Movie mentioned: Tusk Have ghost stories of your own?

Hey, spooky friends! 👻 Get ready, because this week on Two Girls One Ghost Podcast, we’re sharing listener encounters that’ll make you want to leave a nightlight on. From toe-pulling ghosts on old railways to haunted mirror shards appearing out of nowhere, these stories are full of the kind of spine-tingling details you just can’t make up. And then there’s “Dominic the Demon” — a name we won’t be forgetting anytime soon. Imagine ghost hunting in a hotel, only for the word demon to flash on your phone...yeah, we weren’t okay. 😳 Oh, and we may or may not be debating bringing a scrying mirror into the studio. Because why not add a chance of a spirit showing up on screen, right? (Only if it leaves by sunrise, please.) One listener even reported haunted lights, flickering fans, and possessed vacuums after listening to our last cursed episode... so if your place starts acting up after this one, don’t say we didn’t warn you! 🕯️ Grab your favorite cozy blanket, dim the lights, and settle in for some laughs and serious goosebumps.

Ahoy, ghostly voyagers! Do you like pirates? We do too, but this episode is more Captain-of-your-heart kind of vibe. We are going to take an eerie trip back in time and dive into the haunted tale of Captain Colin Swayze and the haunted Olde Angel Inn in Ontario, Canada! This episode has it all: ghostly footsteps, a love that transcends time, and a pub where history (and spirits) come to life. 👻 Before we journey into Captain Swayze's tragic love story, we are sharing some personal encounters. Does Corinne have a creepy doppelgänger or is her mirror playing tricks on her in the middle of the night? Either way, it's showing strange, delayed reflections of herself that’ll give anyone chills. While that might creep you out, we have some exciting news -- pun intended! Two Girls One Ghost, and specifically Sabrina, were front page of the Marblehead Current Newspaper. Linked here! This tale from the Old Angel Inn is not just a story; it’s a ghostly love letter from a captain to his long-lost love. ❤️Captain Colin Swayze is the resident ghost of the Haunted Olde Angel Inn in Niagra-On-the-Lake, Canada. His tragic tale begins and ends with the War of 1812 and a death by American soldiers. Captain Colin Swayze attempted to hide in a barrel of liquor in the basement of the now Olde Angel Inn and unfortunately, the soldiers caught him and impaled him over and over with their bayonets. Captain Colin Swayze never got to bid adieu to his one true love and lives out his after-life haunting the halls of this stunning historic Inn and Pub. He's quite pleasant... unless you take down the Old Union Jack British Flag that hangs above the Inn's front door. Pour yourself a spooky spirit, light a candle, and join us on this spectral adventure. Perfect for paranormal fans and history buffs alike, and maybe even inspire a future road trip to the haunted Olde Angel Inn… if you dare! 💀 Episode Five - Hanako San/Bathroom Game was Mentioned -- you can listen here.
