  • Lore & Legends | The Vampire of New Orleans
    Jan 12 2025
    In the early 1900s, Jacques St. Germain, a mysterious and charming man claiming to be a descendant of the immortal 18th-century Count of St. Germain, arrives in New Orleans. He quickly becomes a prominent figure in high society, hosting extravagant dinner parties where he never eats or drinks, and captivating guests with stories that seem eerily personal.

    However, rumors swirl about strange noises from his mansion, and when a young woman is found bloodied and hysterical, claiming Jacques tried to drink her blood, the city's dark legend begins to resurface.

    Haunted History is produced by SoundBite Studios and hosted by Megan Alda and Derek Stephen Brown, with writing and research by Chloë Kibbe, Megan Alda and Derek Stephen Brown.

  • Tyrant King: The Tragedy of Clipperton Island
    Jan 10 2025
    In the early 20th century, Clipperton was home to a small group of settlers, lured by hope and the promise of a new life. But their paradise quickly became a prison as war, disease, and the relentless elements closed in on them.

    What followed was a tale of survival, betrayal, and tragedy—a story where the line between life and death blurred, and desperation turned to horror.

  • From Hell: Jack the Ripper Part One | The Canonical Five
    Jan 7 2025
    The streets of Whitechapel in the autumn of 1888 were a labyrinth of narrow alleys and hidden corners, cloaked in a chill that seeped into the bone. Beneath the flickering gas lamps, the city pulsed with a restless energy—uneasy, watchful. Lives intersected in the crowded tenements and bustling markets, but an unseen presence moved among them, deliberate and unseen.

    In the span of a few months, multiple lives were stolen in acts so gruesome they seemed to defy human comprehension. The details shocked even the most hardened residents of London’s East End, and the name of the killer became a puzzle that no one could solve. A figure without a face, a phantom whose crimes changed the fabric of the city forever.
