Episode 53: Valentine’s Day Massacre

Valentine’s Day is often associated with love, romance, and sweet gestures, but this podcast takes a darker turn by exploring the holiday’s gruesome historical roots and its connections to the paranormal. The hosts, Dr. Bill and Deb, delve into the violent pagan festival of Lupercalia that preceded modern Valentine’s Day, where rituals involved sacrifice and drunken revelry. They also discuss the infamous St. Valentine’s Day Massacre of 1929 and the haunting of Al Capone by the ghost of one of the victims. Additionally, the episode highlights romantic tales intertwined with hauntings, including the spirits of Edgar Allan Poe and John Lennon, who continue to linger in the locations they once inhabited. Listeners are invited to reconsider the true nature of love and legacy through the lens of history and the supernatural.
