For our Season 1 finale, we go back to our roots and talk about our namesake: Poltergeists. Listen in as we discuss what classifies as a poltergeist, why being an extra on the Poltergeist movie was a bad choice, and even recount some of our own personal encounters with these mischievous spirits! Do they attach themselves to people? Why do Gina's microwaves keep breaking? How long before we accidentally say 'Podtergeist' instead of 'Poltergeist'? The answers to these questions and more can be found only on Podtergeist. If you liked this episode, please rate and review us on Apple Podcasts!

Episode 10 - Your Childhood Was a Horror Movie [Poltergeists]

There is a very well known story in my village. In the year of 2017 A.D., four co-workers embarked on a mission to create a personalized true crime podcast for a different co-worker's Secret Santa gift. Legend has it that they enjoyed it so much, they started their own podcast about spooky shit. This was an urban legend passed down through generations. No one believed such a recording existed...until now. If you enjoyed this episode, please rate and review us on Apple Podcasts!
