We're not going to sugar coat it. The Ladd School was f*cked up when it existed in Exeter, RI. Really nasty stuff... And of course with the horrible history comes the horrible rumors. And on this episode, Trev uncovered a treasure trove of "first hand experiences" to present to Killian. And we discover what a Freshman Binker is. Find out on this episode of Ghost Binkers!

Jennifer Shortridge is a ghost hunter, podcast host, and author of multiple books on the paranormal. Though she believes no one can be an expert in ghosts, she is definitely closer to being an expert than anyone we've had on the show previously. She came with plenty of stories of her own, along with some interesting answers to our first ever Ghoulish Questions segment. Would the ghost of a ghost hunter still hunt ghosts in the after-life?

In 1912, Chicago’s beloved “Captain Santa” ignored numerous red flags and loaded his ship, the "Rouse Simmons" with thousands of Christmas trees and tried to beat a storm back to his destination… Why? The man was on a mission. Unfortunately, that mission was cursed from the start. And yes, there is now an alleged ghost ship continuing his mission. But honestly, this episode isn't really about that, sorry Jr. Binkers. The details of how we got there are more interesting (and honestly more abundant). But stick around for an alternate form of spookiness on this episode of Ghost Binkers!

In the 1816, a small farming village, called Ricker Basin aka Ricker Mill, was founded in Waterbury, Vermont. Conditions were already rough, but to make matter worse a string of unfortunate events ranging from failing crops to murder plagued the village. And of course, in the most poetically cruel fashion, Ricker Mill eventually fell victim to back-to-back floods that finished off the village for good.

Now, its dark remnants haunt hikers and campers who pass through the area. But is it a metaphorical haunt or a paranormal one? Find out on this episode of Ghost Binkers!

Old Mansions... They're big, they're awe inspiring, they're overwhelming, they're creepy. Would I live in an old mansion? Hell no! The Easby family did and their two sons had some serious experiences. And after his younger brother passed, George Easby claimed that the place was EXTREMELY haunted. We'll see about that... The Ghost Binkers are on the case! And we're not too sure if he should have been trusting the medium who was spending a suspicious amount of time around the house...

Over the years, Highgate Manor, in Highgate, Vermont, has had many uses. Most normal, but for a small period of time, a doctor ran his practice out of the home.

Though the Gloucester (GLAH-STER) Sea Serpent only appeared during the 1800s, its legend lives on through the tales of the local MA sailors and merchants. Now, we don't really have any records of it attacking anyone, but it sure got attacked a few times by scared people. That is, if it actually existed.

The Dover Demon was first discovered by 3 teens in 1977. They described it as being bipedal, about 3.5 to 4 feet tall, with long, thin limbs and long, thin digits. Two witnesses said it had glowing green eyes while another said it had glowing orange eyes. And knowing all that, Trev HATES this crptid. Especially, its stupid little bean/peanut shaped head. You know what, just skip this episode... But if you do you're gonna miss out so maybe don't. Enjoy week 3 of our first cryptid season of Ghost Binkers!

No, the Black Flash is not a diversity-inspired version of the DC superhero. It was an inhumanly tall, black, demonic figure terrorizing Provincetown, MA in 1939.

America's first ghost is credited to Nelly Butler in the year 1800. After her death in Sullivan, ME, she kind of just decided to stick around and wing-woman for her ex-husband.

And the lore is so strong around her, we needed two guest binkers and two full episodes to get through it all! From helping two young women fall in love by pushing a man out of the picture to silencing her haters, this doll means business. Or everything we know about her is made up, idk you take a listen and be the judge.
