Dakota Laden takes the team to one of the most frightening and infamous places in America: Waverly Hills Sanatorium in Louisville, Kentucky.

Courtney Mroch is a globe-trotting restless spirit who’s both possessed by wanderlust and the spirit of adventure, and obsessed with true crime, horror, the paranormal, and weird days. Perhaps it has something to do with her genes? She is related to occult royalty, after all. Marie Laveau, the famous Voodoo practitioner of New Orleans, is one of her ancestors. (Yes, really! As explained here.) That could also explain her infatuation with skeletons.
Speaking of mystical, to learn how Courtney channeled her battle with cancer to conjure up this site, check out HJ’s Origin Story.

The Great Saltair Curse sounds especially good. When investigators are affected physically, I think that’s especially interesting even if I am scared for the investigators.
I could not live without the Discovery+ channel. All the shows are my cup of spooky!!
It IS interesting!!! I always wonder if it’s really affecting them or like a placebo effect…except not that. I don’t know the word for it. It’s not coming to me. Like a paranormal hypochondria? Something like that. Basically, I wonder if they’re imagining it or if it’s really happening. Or if they’re faking it all together, but I’m super skeptical that way by nature. lol
OOOOO! So you’re a subscriber?! Because you’re the 1st person to comment positively about discovery+ and the way you used “cup of spooky”…3 more bankable points for you, lady!
