    The Baleroy Mansion
    Mar 24 2026
    Chestnut Hill is a desirable neighborhood in the deliciously weird city of Philadelphia. But there’s very, very old American history there, too – so is it all that big a surprise that a mansion there is haunted? The real question is: between the death chair, the ghost boys, and the screaming parrot… who would film a music video there?Hosted by Laurah NortonResearched by Maura Currie and Anna LuriaWritten, Produced and Engineered by Maura CurrieThis episode previously appeared as Premium Episode 52.One Strange Thing: True Paranormal Mysteries explores the archives of the unexplained, blending rigorous historical research with a wry, skeptical wit to investigate true supernatural stories and baffling mysteries that made headlines.Dive into our Episode Mystery Archive — a curated, topic-organized source for documented hauntings, UFO sightings, cryptids, folklore, and bizarre true mysteries.

  • Introducing: Blood Will Tell

    Introducing: Blood Will Tell
    Mar 16 2026

    This week we're sharing a special episode from Blood Will Tell, a gripping new podcast you won't want to miss.

    When a birthday party in suburban San Jose turns deadly, 18-year-old identical twins Trung and Anh are arrested for suspected murder. But when an eyewitness misidentifies the brothers in a lineup, one twin spends nearly two years in jail — and the wrong one. How could one brother let his twin take the fall? And why would the other sacrifice his freedom for a crime he didn't commit?
