Mountain State Spirit Seeker Society

The big 5 0 is here and we had a fun time.  We talk about the incredible web series ParaAbnormal.  Check them out and recommend them to a friend today.  Due to popular response, we’re going to move to Sunday nights starting February 21st at 6:00PM Eastern.  We’re going to take next week off and do one more Monday night show on the 15th.

Tonight we were joined by the Mountain State Spirit Seeker Society to tell us a little about their group and some of the work they’ve been doing.  We’ve been trying to get these guys on for quite a while so it was great to finally get everyone together.  Great half hour with them.  Be sure to check out their website.

Our Independent Music Break featured ‘X My Eyes’ from The Russian Brides.  Remember to support independent music!

Another incredibly fun episode. Tonight we talk about the sad news of an indefinite hiatus from the incredible folks over at Ghostly Talk. ScottL, Doug and Bonnie have produced a first class show now for almost 8 years. Ghostly Talk is the rule by which the rest of independent paranormal podcast/radio should be judged. Guys, we’ll miss you and anxiously await your return! We also talk a little about some of the upcoming format changes here at Spooktalkular. As we’ve mentioned, we’re planning on going a little deeper into some serious paranormal topics. We start that off next week with a very special guest live, the incredibly interesting Marie D. Jones who will be talking all things 2012 with us.

As for this week, we dissect ‘Paranormal Activity‘. Be warned, if you haven’t seen it, we do a fairly lengthy discussion on it with an unlimited supply of spoilers. In a nutshell, we loved the concept but really feel more could have been done with it. After that, we talk some TV with ‘Ghost Hunters’, ‘Destination Truth’ and ‘Mystery Quest’.

Our Independent Music Break featured the song Oxygen from the incredibly talented Erica Shines. Be sure to pick up Erica’s album ‘I Will Wait For You’ over at CDBaby and always support independent music!

We round out the show with a wrap up of episodes 12 and 13 of ‘Harper’s Island’ and replay the Jim Beaver interview we did a few months back.

A couple of notes.  Be sure to send in your Spooky Stories for the contest.  Also, join us live on October 30th at 8:00PM Eastern when we’ll have the chat open along with the Mic for a special Spooktalkular.  We’ll be watching the Ghost Adventures Live crew when they investigate the Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum.   Be sure to get your Skype ready because we’ll be having listeners call in while we watch it.

Also, be sure to tune on on October 29th on the History Channel for a four hour marathon of the remaining ‘UFO Hunters’ episodes!  And, if you haven’t signed the petition to keep ‘UFO Hunters’ on the air, do it now.  Head over to www.ufomag.com and follow the link from there.

Another fun live episode is done.  We had a great time chatting with the “Spookchatties” as always.  This week, we feature an interview with Emily from ‘The Light: A Ghost Wisperer Podcast’.  We take a listen to the trailers from the movie ‘Paranormal Activity‘ and ‘Transylmania: The Movie‘.

In the world of Television, we take a look at Episodes 5 and 6 of ‘Harper’s Island’ along with the premier episode of ‘Mystery Quest’ on the History Channel.

Another fun live show!  We had a blast with a full house in chat tonight.  Laura shared some ‘Haunted Headlines’ including some awesome information from our friends over at www.backtofrankblack.com.  They have received word of some investor interest in a Millennium Movie!!!  Congrats to our great friends on their hard work.

Laura also detailed another contest of sorts.  We’re inviting our listeners to submit their stories to show@spooktalkular.com for reading on the show.  At the end of October, we’ll have the listeners vote on their favorite and we’ll award a to be determined prize.

We did some quick movies this week.  ‘Last House on the Left‘, ‘The Unborn‘ and for our Classic Cinema, we looked at ‘The Andromeda Strain‘.  We also mentioned a new movie that we just found out about named ‘Transylmania‘.

For TV this week, a quick visit to episodes 3 and 4 from ‘Harper’s Island’ along with ‘Ghost Hunters’ and ‘Destination Truth’ round out the show.

This episode’s Independent Music Break featured the incredible artist, Nyki Lindsay King from Canada with his song ‘Let Up’.

We just finished episode 13.  Pretty good episode considering that we hadn’t done one in a while.  We start off talking about the new Friday the 13th movie.  I gave it about a 3 ghosts and Laura gave it 2.  While on the topic of movies, we did another giveaway.  You’ll have to listen for details.

Pretty packed show for TV.  We discuss two episodes of “UFO Hunters” and have a discussion on the Pre-Columbian Airplane artifacts that were discussed on the show.  You’ll find more info about the artifacts at http://s8int.com/phile/page54.html and http://www.bibliotecapleyades.net/esp_aviones_precolom02.htm with the last one being my favorite.

We had a quick discussion of the most recent “Paranormal State” episode “The Repossession: Return of 6″.  Probably one of the best “Paranormal State” episodes we’ve seen so far.  We follow that up with quick discussions on “Monster Quest: Monster Close Encounters” and “Most Haunted”.

We round out the hour (and even run over a bit) with “Ghost Hunters” and the Edith Warton Estate episode.  From there, we discuss the recent video brought to our attention by MovieDan.  Check it out at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MaptYGlMdZc&feature=email for details.  SciFake has a response to the drama in the video at http://scifake.com/?p=613 and http://blogs.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendId=158243618&blogId=478297190 for details.

Earlier today, we received an email with the answer to the Episode 12 contest question.  The question was, what movie was released in 1991 staring Jodie Foster and Anthony Hopkins.  The hint was the word cannibalism.  The correct answer was “The Silence of the Lambs“.  Tune in to Episode 13 to find out who the lucky winner is and for another contest!

Thanks for listening.

Welcome to Spooktalkular episode 6, recorded on Halloween Night.  It’s been a little while but it’s actually one of our best.  This time, we did a good bit of post production which really made a difference.  I had hoped to get this one out yesterday but I really feel that it was worth the wait.

In the paranormal news, we talk about the recent article linking EMF to paranormal.  http://www.sciam.com/article.cfm?id=ghost-lusters-if-you-want

We also talk about the upcoming remake of Friday the 13th and listen to the new trailer.  Here’s the link to the trailer on YouTube.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6OJYncOq2W0&feature=iv&annotation_id=event_227056

We take a look at the new Travel Channel series “Ghost Adventurers”.   We do a quick look at “Paranormal State” which was picked up for a third season.  Also, we mention the upcoming giveaway of an autographed picture from the cast of “Paranormal State”.  We talk about the “Paranormal State” field trip in February to Point Pleasant.  If you happen to be up in Point Pleasant, West Virginia, be sure to check out the Mothman Museum.  Jeff Wamsley does a heck of a job with it.

Since it’s Halloween night, it’s time for the “Ghost Hunters” Live event.  This year it’s at Fort Delaware.  Since it’s happening while we record the show, be sure to listen next time when we take a look at the live event.  We do take a look at the “Ghost Hunters” Uss Hornet episode with special guest Colin Ferguson from “Eureka”.

We have started a new MySpace page set up on http://www.myspace.com/spooktalkular so if you’re on Myspace, be sure to add us as a friend.

We produced this episode with a little lower bitrate as to be a little friendlier on those of us on slower connections.  All our testing seemed good but if there are any quality issues noted, let us know.  As always, thanks for listening!
