Historically Haunted Podcast
Hello and welcome to the Historically Haunted Podcast! I am your Dyslexic host, Ariel, and I am so happy that you are here. If you enjoy history with a dose of paranormal on the side, then I hope you will enjoy my podcast. We take a deeper dive into the history of haunted locations to learn about the lives of the people who once lived there because to understand the ghosts, you must first understand the history. What started as a hobby to share my love for history and the paranormal grew into a podcast with a devoted fanbase who are very encouraging and supportive. I discovered that I could also use my platform to be an advocate for people with learning disabilities, and my show only grew from there. So sit back, relax, and let me tell you a historically haunted tale.
Hello and Welcome!
My name is Ariel and I am the host of the podcast Historically Haunted. I love history and the paranormal so I thought it would be fun to share my interest with anyone who might also enjoy the same. I discuss historic places that are also haunted. If you enjoy a deeper dive into the history of a haunted place than this podcast might be for you.
I am also dyslexic and I try to bring awareness to my learning disability and educate as many people as possible about it. So if you like having fun, talking about history and enjoy a ghostly twist then you might enjoy my show. If not that's ok. Thank you for stopping by and checking out HH.

Ep. 67 Ocracoke Island, NC 🎃 Halloween Ep. 1/3
Friday Sep 06, 2024
Friday Sep 06, 2024
Ahoy there, mateys! This Halloween, we set sail for Ocracoke, North Carolina's most haunted barrier island! Steeped in American history and pirate legends, this charming seaside town offers incredible fishing, small shops, and amazing seafood restaurants. Visit one of the oldest operating lighthouses, witness wild ponies, and take a stroll on the island's legendary shores. But beware—Ocracoke's treacherous waters because ghostly tales await. This is the island where Blackbeard once roamed, and ghostly whispers of lost sailors and shipwreck victims echo in the wind.

Ep. 65 The Old Sheriff's House and Lake County Jail
Friday May 24, 2024
Friday May 24, 2024
The Old Sheriff's House and Lake County Jail in Crown Point, Indiana, have an interesting history, and the ghosts we find here seem to want to make their presence known. Let's look beyond the building's history to learn all we can about Crown Point so we might have a better understanding of who these ghosts are. Like I always say, to understand the ghosts, we must first understand the history.
⭐️ Date mistake: I said that the Jail opened in 1626 when I meant to say 1926. I have updated this new upload to fix my mistake, but this fixed version might take a while to update. As you all know, I try hard not to make dyslexic mistakes during my recordings, but occasionally, I slip up. Thanks for the understanding. ⭐️
