Spooktalkular returns with a little edgier show than normal.  No, this isn’t going to be the norm, we just went where the material led us today.
Frank takes a rant out on Ghost Hunters Academy.  We discuss ‘The Haunted’, ‘Psychic Kids’, and a Jack the Ripper special on the Discovery Channel.  We also have a lengthy discussion on a recent ‘Paranormal State’ episode.  Our independent music break featured ‘Chaos Engine’ by TenPenny Joke
All in all, a great, fun show.  It’s good to be back!

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.

Wow, great, LONG show.  We had a blast in the live chat tonight with the Spookchatties!  We covered a lot of ground this week.  First, we recapped our visit to the 8th Annual Mothman Festival in Point Pleasant, WV.  Then, we read our very first entry in the Spooky Story contest.  It was “Unca Aygin” by Patrick from Missouri.

We had a very special Extended Independent Music Break featuring a great interview with Matt Dauzat and Heather St. Marie from the band Hydrovibe.  Thier CD ‘Nothing Left To Lose‘ releases tomorrow on September 29th.  After the interview, we take a listen to the single ‘Fame’ from the CD.  Awesome band.  This is one of the few CDs that I just couldn’t stop listening to.

We hit TV fairly hard tonight.  We start off with a visit from Emily with ‘The Light: A Ghost Wisperer Podcast’ to recap the season premier of  ’Ghost Whisperer’.  From there, we hit ‘Ghost Hunters’, ‘Mystery Quest’, ‘Destination Truth’, ‘Medium’ and finish up with ‘Harper’s Island’ where we have an extra special treat.  We sat down recently and talked with Anna Mae Routledge who played Kelly, the tattooed Goth Girl.  We had a blast!  She was a sweetheart.  Anna Mae told us quite a few little tidbits about the death process on ‘Harper’s Island’ and just the experience in general.  Look for Anna Mae in the upcoming movie ‘2012‘, ‘Amazon Falls‘ and, of course, ‘Harper’s Island’.

Well, this week is a bit of a little experiment.  We give a live show a shot and, no surprise here, we screw it up pretty good.  We knew we would which is why we didn’t promote it a lot.  Hope you like it.  We do an intro about the show in case someone is on who isn’t familiar with the show.  Sadly, Frank ended up going to Waverly Hills Sanitorium without Laura so he tells us about it.  We do a quick discussion of the movies ‘Orphan‘ and ‘Bone Dry‘.  For television this week, Laura tells us about ‘Ghost Hunters International’, ‘Monster Quest’, ‘Ghostly Encounters’ and ‘Psychic Investigators’.

We round the show out with an awesome interview with John Warfield from the DC Metro Area Ghostwatchers.  John tells us about the DCMAG group and their investigations of the Historic Jordan Springs.

Hmmm, after I look at it, the show was actually pretty good….

Next week should be a little more normal with our usual Classic Cinema and a treat for our Independent Music Break.  We’re planning on shooting for a live show on Tuesday August 18th at 8:00PM Eastern.  We should have the chat room up and running so we hope to see you then.
