Par’Eh’Normal

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?

Welcome to Union Cemetery — Oshawa’s most exclusive gated community.
In this episode, we roll through the who’s who of people buried here, spill the historical tea, and question why some of them are clearly still lurking. Famous names, forgotten legends, and spirits who absolutely would’ve thrived on gossip. Respectful? Technically. Unhinged? Completely. Bring a flashlight and a sense of humour—just in case someone follows us home.

Kaz and Rachel take a respectful (and slightly humbled) step back to talk about Indigenous beliefs surrounding death and the afterlife—where the focus isn’t jump scares or shadow figures, but connection, balance, and what happens after this life ends.
We explore how many Indigenous cultures view death not as an ending, but as a continuation—focusing on spirit journeys, ancestors, and the deep connection between the living, the land, and the unseen. Along the way, we contrast this with modern paranormal panic and realize that maybe the scariest thing isn’t the afterlife—it’s how little most of us understand it.

This week on Par’Eh’Normal, Kaz and Rachel pull back the velvet curtain on psychic scandals—where crystal balls get cloudy, predictions get very convenient, and “I sense something” turns into “I googled you first.”
From famous frauds to eyebrow-raising cold reads, we break down how the tricks work, why people fall for them, and how a few bad actors managed to give the paranormal a reputation it’s still trying to sage away. Tune in for side-eye, skepticism, and a strong reminder that real intuition shouldn’t come with a subscription fee.
