/ Jenny Ashford / Leave a comment

On today’s spooky installment, Tom and Jenny take a tour through the haunted byways of the oldest continually-occupied settlement in the United States: St. Augustine, Florida. Founded by the Spanish in 1565, the quaint and charming city is packed to the gills with ancient, crumbling cemeteries, sinister bed and breakfasts, towering lighthouses, Gilded Age architecture, and Native American burial sites, all of which boast at least one reported phantom. So pour yourself whatever spirits you choose and tune in to the creepy tales on a LIVE episode 254.

13 O’Clock Episode 84 – The Haunting of Bobby Mackey’s

/ Jenny Ashford / Leave a comment

On this ghostly episode of 13 O’Clock, we’re going back to our recaps of “A Haunting” episodes, and this one is about one of the most famous haunted locations in the United States. Bobby Mackey’s Music World has been a popular Kentucky honky tonk since the late 1970s, but it’s evidently been haunted for as long as anyone can remember. Its alleged former use as a slaughterhouse and a speakeasy, as well as being the site of alleged suicides and at least one gruesome murder, has practically ensured that paranormal activity has often been reported and several ghost hunting teams have conducted investigations of the place. So slap on your ten-gallon hat and climb onto the mechanical bull as we run down the tale of the infamously spirit-infested country and western bar on episode 84.
