Author: Dizzy Spell & We Own This Town October 16, 2024 Duration: 51:35

This episode HP Hovercraft and Bunnicula dive right in for a lively discussion about the best version of Ray Parker Jr’s Ghostbuster’s theme song (spoiler alert, it’s not the original) and other iconic Halloween songs, plus vampire movie recommendations, various disgusting cheeses, and a second dip into some of Nashville’s haunted locations – including the burial site of a Spiritualist minister and a Captain D’s with a dark secret.

Most importantly; Dizzy Spell wants to know – what’s your favorite Halloween song? Hit them up @dizzyspellworld or info@dizzyspell.show with your answer.

There’s a particular feeling that comes with encountering something just outside the bounds of everyday explanation-a dizzying blend of curiosity, unease, and wonder. That’s the territory Dizzy Spell occupies. Created by Dizzy Spell & We Own This Town, this podcast is less about providing definitive answers and more about immersing you in the rich, often ambiguous landscapes where history, science, culture, and fiction curiously intersect. Each episode feels like a carefully assembled documentary, weaving together narrative storytelling with investigative depth. You might find yourself deep in a historical account that feels like a ghost story, or examining a societal phenomenon through the lens of the utterly inexplicable. The aim is to explore those moments of "high strange," a term beloved by those who study the unexplained, which captures events that are profoundly odd and deeply resonant. Listening is an exercise in keeping your balance while the ground seems to shift, offering perspectives that are as thought-provoking as they are unsettling. It’s for anyone who prefers their mysteries served with substance, where the question is always more fascinating than a simple answer could ever be.
