Par’Eh’Normal

This week on Par'Eh'Normal, we're diving into the wonderfully questionable world of paranormal games—the kind of games where someone looked at Monopoly and thought, "You know what this needs? More demons." From Bloody Mary and Light as a Feather, Stiff as a Board to the Midnight Game and other spooky challenges found lurking on the internet, we're exploring why people keep willingly inviting terror into their lives for entertainment.
Join us as we discuss the origins, legends, and alleged consequences of these paranormal pastimes while repeatedly asking the same important question: who was the first person to hear about these games and think, "Yeah, that sounds like a great idea"?

This week on Par'Eh'Normal, we're tempting fate by talking all about superstitions! From black cats and broken mirrors to walking under ladders and refusing to say "it's quiet tonight" during an investigation, we're exploring the strange beliefs that have convinced humanity that everyday activities are secretly trying to ruin our lives. Are superstitions ancient wisdom passed down through generations, or are they just humanity's longest-running game of "better not risk it"?
Join us as we uncover the bizarre origins of these beliefs, confess the superstitions we secretly follow, and almost certainly anger the universe by discussing all of them in a single episode. If our microphones suddenly stop working halfway through, you'll know why.

In this episode, we're heading behind the fences of Camp 30, one of Canada's most fascinating and mysterious historic sites. Originally built as a School for Boys, it became known for housing German prisoners of war during World War II.  Camp 30 somehow managed to combine military security, escape attempts, international intrigue, and enough ghost stories to keep paranormal investigators awake at night.
Join us as we explore the camp's incredible history, its famous prisoners, and the lingering reports of unexplained activity. Because apparently spending years trying to keep people in Camp 30 wasn't enough—some of them may still be hanging around. Whether you're here for the history, the hauntings, or the fact that someone once thought escaping into rural Ontario was a solid plan, this episode has you covered.

Ever wondered how a paranormal investigation actually works? Is it all dramatic whispers, running down hallways, and yelling "Did you hear that?!" into the darkness? Well, sometimes. This week, we're pulling back the curtain on what really happens during an investigation—from historical research and equipment setup to spending six hours in complete darkness talking to empty rooms and getting excited when a flashlight flickers. We'll explain the methods, the myths, the gadgets, and why ghost hunting is often 10% paranormal investigation, 20% history lesson, and 70% wondering who just made that weird noise.
Whether you're a skeptic, a believer, or just someone who enjoys watching adults have conversations with walls, this episode is for you.

This week, we're tackling the Stone Tape Theory—the paranormal idea that buildings, walls, and even rocks are basically nature's oldest DVR system. Could emotional events somehow be recorded into stone and played back years later as ghostly sightings? Or are haunted locations just suffering from an extreme case of architectural oversharing?
Join us as we explore the theory that your spooky Victorian mansion may actually be replaying events from the past like a haunted Netflix subscription. And if it's true, we'd like to formally apologize to the walls of our homes for all the embarrassing conversations they've apparently been recording.

This episode sees us digging up the fascinating world of forgotten cemeteries—the final resting places that time, nature, and occasionally questionable urban planning have tried their best to erase. From graveyards hidden beneath parking lots and shopping malls to lonely burial grounds lost deep in the woods, we'll uncover the stories of those who were buried, forgotten, and then accidentally rediscovered by someone who just wanted to build a driveway.
Join us as we explore history, mystery, and the universal lesson that if your construction project suddenly uncovers a tombstone, it's probably going to be a very weird day.

This week, Kaz and Rachel made the questionable decision to hand the microphones over to Chester, Harold, and Spectre—the Boys of Boo! What could possibly go wrong? Between Chester's dramatic storytelling, Harold's insistence that every unexplained noise is definitely a ghost, and Spectre's complete inability to stay on topic, chaos quickly takes over the studio.
Join our pint-sized paranormal personalities as they discuss hauntings, mysteries, and why dolls are unfairly blamed for everything. It's spooky, it's silly, and there's at least a 73% chance someone gets put in timeout before the episode is over.

In this episode, we checked into the Shanley Hotel, a place so haunted that the ghosts probably have a better loyalty rewards program than the living. Armed with flashlights, cameras, and what can only be described as questionable decision-making skills, we spent the night wandering the halls of a hotel famous for bootleggers, mobsters, ladies of the night, and spirits who apparently never got the memo about checkout time.
Between strange noises, creepy encounters, and the growing realization that sleeping there may have been a terrible idea, we discovered why the Shanley has earned its reputation as one of the most haunted hotels in America.

First Responders see a lot of things while on duty – including ghosts!  From witnessing final moments of life, to getting called out to a possible break and enter, they never know what might happen when they arrive.  Our special guest this week, Ryan, is a retired police officer who has had his fair share of paranormal encounters on the job that left him with more questions than answers. 
Why did the policeman ticket the ghost? He didn’t have a haunting license.  We will show ourselves out!

This week, Kaz and Rachel check themselves into the infamous Ottawa Jail Hostel—where the room rates are great, but the former inmates may never have checked out! Once known as the Carleton County Gaol, this historic lockup has a dark past filled with executions, overcrowded cells, and enough ghost stories to make you sleep with one eye open.
Join us as we explore the haunted history, infamous residents, paranormal encounters, and answer the important question: would you spend the night in a former jail... knowing some of the guests might still be serving their sentence?
