What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
It's time to explore the unexplained. To delve into the mysteries of our world and the realms beyond. To seek out the answers to phenomena that defy conventional explanation. Welcome to Paranormal Underground Radio in the Dark with Karen Frazier and Chucky G. Where that journey begins.
We are live. This is Paranormal Underground Radio in the Dark. With your hosts, Chuck E.G. and Karen Frazier. And I can hear Cheryl, too. Hi, Cheryl.
Yes, and Cheryl, too.
I can hear Cheryl, too. Well, you can hear me, but I was
on mute. But maybe people can hear me now. I don't know.
So our guest tonight is Don Allison, author of I Met a Ghost in Gettysburg, A Journalist's Journey into the Paranormal. But anyways, yes, Don Allison. He was here before, though, right? Yeah,
he's the Gettysburg guy. He
has
updates.
Oh, I was going to say, we're bringing him back, so he's got updates. Okay. And then we have our correspondent, which is Maria Anna Vandriel. She's done lots of them before, actually. I listened to the one about shadow people, which is really cool. And then we have MJ12, Who Created Who? So it's actually pretty interesting. It's, I think, about seven minutes long. So you'll have to listen to that as well. But yeah, I'm interested to see what he's going to add to the talk about Gettysburg ghosts. I know. It seems like there's a lot of people who talk about ghosts as far as Gettysburg. I mean, why do you think that is? Well, because
it's haunted.
Well, no, I mean, but, you know, there's other battlefields. You're
looking for a more specific answer,
isn't it? I suspect probably
other battlefields have hauntings as well. I think that, you know, anytime there's, and it's not necessarily when I say a haunting, I mean it in this parapsychological sense that, you know, it's possibly even just a residual recording of what's happened. okay so i just think that that that energy and that emotion creates an imprint it records
well yeah i was just meaning you know like why is this so like it you know whenever you when you talk about this stuff in batty fields it's always gettysburg it's very prominent you know what i mean where there it is it is
but there are a lot of places that are like that that are super prominent and some of its hype i don't think i don't know i've never been to gettysburg so i don't know whether that is the case or not
um
But, you know, some of it, places are very hyped. Some places aggressively pursue being marketing, marketing themselves as being haunted. Again, I don't think that's necessarily the case with Gettysburg. But yeah, you know, name any other places on American soil where an American war, I mean, a war, you know, I'm sure that there were a lot of skirmishes and things between indigenous people.
Right.
Before white Europeans got here. Right. And I'm sure that those have imprinted on the land as well. But we don't know about those like we know about Gettysburg.
Okay. And
like we know about the Civil War.
Okay. So we were on hiatus. Did you have a good hiatus?
Yeah. I do want to just at the top of the show mention to our listeners, I am very sorry. I am downstairs tonight. The dogs are near me. They may bark, but it is cold as bleep upstairs where I go to get away from the dogs. And I didn't want to die doing the show.
And
so I am downstairs.
Yeah. Otherwise you'd be part of the paranormal show we're talking
about.
There you go. Yeah. I mean, I just,
I just, how about you?
I just been chilling, you know, going to work, uh, did some readings and, you know, connecting with people and trying to get my website up and stuff. But I mean, nothing, nothing hugely different. you know, I need to talk about, I mean, just, you know, just
trying to get your website up or actually indeed doing it.
Well, it's almost done now. Um, uh, the lady Kathy Kohler, who's been working on it for me, like nonstop, uh, look, it looks really, really good. So, uh, we're almost there. I've just been adding stuff to it and putting books and resource information so people can go to other places and check things out. And so, yeah, it's, it's almost there.
