The Spirits of Shaw's Garden Part 2
19 JUL 2021 · A belated part 2 of our interview with Dave Tognoni - an expert on all things spirited at the Missouri Botanical Garden. On this portion of the interview, Dave recounts ghost stories he remembers, as well as reads some from the amazing record book he compiled and was nice enough to share with us. We've got some more photo evidence for you on our Instagram page, and need your help finding out if one of our more famous Presidents ever visited MOBOT!
The Spirits of Shaw's Garden Part 1
21 MAY 2021 · In our first interview, Dave Tognoni joins us to discuss the spirits residing in the Missouri Botanical Gardens in St. Louis - and the many encounters he has documented. While they won't officially call it haunted, it seems everyone working at the garden has a ghost story to tell, and Dave is familiar with most of them.

Bellefontaine and Calvary Cemeteries / Hitchhike Annie
18 MAR 2021 · In our first episode, we briefly explore the history, folklore and interesting residents of Bellefontaine and Calvary Cemeteries in St. Louis, MO.
The most notable ghost story tied to these cemeteries is Hitchhike Annie, and I break down my theory on where she came from. Additionally, I share the stories of some of the cemetery residents who may still have some reason to be restless... including Thomas Hart Benton and one of the founders of the Veiled Prophet Organization, St. Louis’s own mysterious secret society.
For more information on the ghost of Resurrection Mary in Chicago, I recommend checking out her episodes on the Astonishing Legends podcast. I found the book "Movers and Shakers Scalawags and Suffragettes: Tales from the Bellefontaine Cemetery" and articles from the St. Louis Post Dispatch and Globe Democrat to be particularly helpful in my research for this episode.
