The Grave Talks | Haunted, Paranormal & Supernatural

This is Part Two of our conversation.
When we walk into a supposedly haunted building, how much of what we experience is influenced by what we expect to find? Can fear or the power of suggestion make an ordinary occurrence seem paranormal? And how do we know when we've encountered something truly unexplained?
Paranormal investigator Vinny Carbone has spent years exploring haunted locations, including New York's historic Morris-Jumel Mansion. He's had experiences he still can't explain, including a particularly unsettling investigation in Scotland. Yet despite everything he's encountered, Vinny considers himself a skeptical believer.
We explore the psychology behind paranormal experiences and the investigations themselves. Why are certain places so frightening? How do television and popular culture shape our expectations? And why do some people remain skeptical even after experiencing something they can't explain?
Vinny shares stories from his investigations while offering a different perspective on ghost hunting—one that embraces the possibility of the paranormal without assuming every unexplained event is supernatural. Because believing in ghosts and questioning the evidence don't have to be mutually exclusive.
Today on The Grave Talks, What Makes Us Believe in Ghosts? with Vinny Carbone.

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! PART TWO
An unusual eBay listing led filmmaker Blair Murphy and his friends to an unexpected purchase—the Grand Midway Hotel. What they didn’t anticipate was that the building came with far more than history. Though no longer operating as a hotel, the Grand Midway is widely believed to be home to restless spirits that refuse to leave.
Blair joins us to explore the hotel’s dark and unsettling past. From reports of unsolved murders and human bones discovered within the walls to the tragic story of Martha, a young woman who lost her life after falling from the balcony during a Fourth of July celebration, the building’s history is steeped in mystery. Adding to its strange legacy are two Guinness World Records—a massive Ouija board on the rooftop and the world’s largest Tarot card overhead. Are these merely curiosities—or invitations to what still lingers inside?
If you’d like more information on the hotel, check out their website at grandmidwayhotel.com.

Her sister lived in an old house that she had jokingly called haunted more than once. Her sister never exactly agreed with her—but she never really denied it either.
Then one winter night, she had to stop by the empty house alone.
She brought her dog along for company, expecting to be in and out in a matter of minutes. But something happened inside that frightened both of them enough that she was more than ready to leave.
Once she was back in her own home, she thought it was over. A few hours later, she wasn't so sure.
Because whatever had frightened them at her sister's house may not have stayed there.

Cleaning an office building after hours meant spending most nights alone. She preferred it that way, even after she began hearing footsteps on empty floors, doors closing in dark offices, and an elevator arriving when no one was there.
There was always an explanation she could live with. Old equipment. Strange acoustics. Someone working later than expected. Then a thunderstorm knocked out the power.
With only emergency lights and the flashlight on her phone, she heard footsteps moving above her and went looking for whoever might still be inside. The offices were empty, security showed no one else in the building, and she was ready to leave.
Then she saw a man standing at the far end of the hallway.
What happened next would make every smaller incident she had dismissed suddenly feel a lot harder to explain.
