The Salem Witch Trials Pt. 1

We decided to take another run at a big topic from Afternoonified's past now that we have the benefit of age, experience and...Emily got better at research. So sit back, do you best to relax (it's gonna be hard) and settle in to hear about Salem's incessant persecution of women of a certain age (and a few men, one of whom might have deserved it?).

Mini: Then When Was Phones?

During our recent trip, we made sure we fully got our money's worth at the Lizzie Borden Bed & Breakfast and recorded a mini in Lizzie's bedroom. There was one power outlet and maybe 8 hours of sleep between us, but please enjoy this selection of the Creepiest Pastas.

Mini: A Wild & Crazy Night in the Holy Roman Empire

In 1561, something (allegedly) lit up the skies above Nuremberg, Germany. All we have that refers to this event is a woodcut and writing by a man named Hans Glaser. So what happened on that fateful night? Aliens? Natural phenomena? The LORD ALMIGHTY HIMSELF??

The Walton Experience

No, we’re not doing an episode on some weird 70’s prog rock band, despite what the title sounds like. This story has way more aliens, cops, skeptics and a distinct lack of probing. We’ll be taking a dive into the alleged (prepare to hear that a lot) alien abduction of Travis Walton from the forests of Arizona back in 1975.
