We have a very special live episode for you recorded for the Arizona Theatre Matters 2022 Festival.  In it, we talk all about seances (as if it wasn’t obvious from our last minisode). First, Cody talks about Helen Duncan, the last woman tried as a witch in Britain for talking to dead soldiers during WW2. Then, Chris discusses Mae West, the Hollywood starlet fascinated by seances. Next, Cody shares the story of a man who sets up a fake seance only to have the real thing thrown in his face. Finally, Chris talks about a crazy seance set up in a haunted Toys R Us…You read that right. Our drinks were whatever the heck we wanted to make for this special.Advisory: 0:00s-0:18sIntro Music: 0:18s-0:46sTopic: 0:46s-7:27mDrinks: 7:27m-10:37mHistory: 10:37m-20:24mHelen Duncan: 20:24m-32:40mMae West: 32:40m-41:37mTrailer: 41:37m-42:32mGross Pointe: 43:32m-51:30mSylvia Browne: 51:30m-59:23mOuija: 59:23m-1:04:50hBeliever: 1:04:50h-1:07:46hSkeptic: 1:07:46h-1:13:40mCreep of the Week: 1:13:40m-1:15:35mSign Off: 1:15:35h-1:28:16hExit Music: 1:28:16h-1:28:33hOriginal Music: “Halloween Pumpkin” found at https://www.purple-planet.comTo find other strange podcasts, follow our network: https://podmoth.network/LinksHistory-https://coolmomsusa.com/the-history-of-the-seance/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S%C3%A9ance#:~:text=The%20word%20s%C3%A9ance%20comes%20from,%22a%20movie%20session%22).https://www.history.com/news/flu-pandemic-wwi-ouija-boards-spiritualismhttps://allthatsinteresting.com/seancesHelen Duncan-https://www.express.co.uk/news/history/727844/Britain-last-witch-Helen-Duncan-exoneration-60-yearshttps://www.ranker.com/list/scary-stories-from-seances/melissa-brinksMae West-https://www.classicmoviehub.com/blog/lives-behind-the-legends-mae-west-spiritual-vixen/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mae_WestGross Pointe-http://www.castleofspirits.com/ghoststories/stories99/November1999_4.htmlSylvia Browne and the Haunted Toys ‘R Us:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sylvia_Brownehttps://www.jmplumbley.com/2015/09/03/clean-up-on-aisle-15-the-haunting-of-toys-r-us-sunnyvale/https://www.strangerdimensions.com/2016/07/03/haunted-toys-r-us-sunnyvale-california/https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/651670/haunted-toys-r-usOuija-https://www.reddit.com/r/Paranormal/comments/20mq5c/to_those_who_played_with_a_ouija_boarddo_tell/cg4ykgm/https://www.reddit.com/r/Paranormal/comments/20mq5c/to_those_who_played_with_a_ouija_boarddo_tell/cg599ny/Believer-https://www.forbes.com/sites/mishagajewski/2021/01/17/heres-why-some-people-say-they-hear-dead-people/?sh=2165b37a439ahttps://everettclipper.com/13425/showcase/modern-seance-searching-for-a-connection/Skeptic-https://www.forbes.com/sites/mishagajewski/2021/01/17/heres-why-some-people-say-they-hear-dead-people/?sh=2165b37a439ahttps://everettclipper.com/13425/showcase/modern-seance-searching-for-a-connection/
