Homespun Haints: True Ghost Stories
True ghost stories are scarier (and funnier) when you hear them from the real people who experienced them. We’re Becky and Diana, and we interview people who have seen ghosts--so you can feel their fear with them. Each episode features true, personal stories of ghosts, demons, haints, hauntings, haunted houses, and paranormal experiences, sprinkled with humorous conversations about the random strange events in our own haunted lives.

Mel collects Latin American and Caribbean paranormal stories. As a first generation Cuban American, she's no stranger to Lucumí and Santería practitioners warning of spirits in her family's home. But when she comes face to face with angry ghosts in her own space, she's found ways to make them go away. We're excited to bring on Mel Trahan of ¡Ay Ghost Mio! on this episode.
