The dead speak! Well, they write, actually. In this episode, we analyze the ectoplasmic product of a 200-year-old séance: the paranormal penmanship of a ghost. During our exploration of the afterlife, Dana discovers feminist pirate poltergeists, Connor comes out of magical retirement, Greg summons dead goldfish with his toes, and the gang has an existential crisis while weeding out haunted hoaxes. Join hands and have a seat at the séance circle, because it's about to get ghostly.Join the Museum: https://patreon.com/paramuseumVisit Our Website: https://hauntedobjectspodcast.comSubscribe on YouTube: https://tinyurl.com/25xf92nxFollow Greg NewkirkTwitter: https://twitter.com/nuekerkInstagram: https://instagram.com/nuekerkWebsite: https://gregorynewkirk.comFollow Dana NewkirkTwitter: https://twitter.com/weird_danaInstagram: https://instagram.com/weird_danaFollow Connor J.
