Author: Elizabeth Grimes September 23, 2025 Duration: 41:02
On this episode of Spirits Uncorked, we explore the eerie intersection of belief and the paranormal. What is the science behind why we see, hear, and feel ghosts — even when nothing is truly there? We dive into the placebo effect, psychological priming, faith, and fear, and how these forces can create experiences that feel undeniably real. Pour a glass of wine and discover why sometimes… the scariest ghosts live in our heads. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.LanierGhostTours.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠X⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

Settle in with a glass of your favorite vintage and get ready for a conversation that wanders into the shadows. On Spirits Uncorked, sisters Elizabeth and Erica Grimes blend history and true crime with the paranormal, creating a uniquely atmospheric listen. Each episode begins with the pop of a cork, leading into deep dives into chilling tales, from the tragic, submerged history of Georgia's Lake Lanier to accounts of haunted institutions and personal encounters with the unexplained. This isn't just a retelling of ghost stories; it's an exploration of the real events and locations that fuel these legends, examining the thin line between documented history and enduring mystery. The podcast thrives on conversation, whether it's just the two hosts parsing a strange case or bringing in guests like horror authors, historians, or everyday people who've experienced something they can't explain. The tone is conversational and often personal, feeling like you’re pulled up at a kitchen table late at night, listening to a fascinating, sometimes spine-tingling discussion. You’ll find the stories are grounded in specific places and historical context, giving weight to the eerie phenomena reported there. For anyone curious about the darker corners of the past and the lingering whispers that might just be true crime’s echo, Spirits Uncorked offers a compelling, and wonderfully uncorked, journey.
