Now for even more eerie adventures with Phill, check out a video of his Randonautica trip to haunted Hockomock Swamp in southeastern Massachusetts!

This is a weird one… but that’s the way we like it. There are lots of conspiracy theories floating around the internet lately, but who knew there was even one about your streetlights?

It’s National Toast Day, so fire up the haunted toaster! The last Thursday in February is a day to celebrate toast, for some reason. So we’re dusting off this gem of an interview from 1984, featuring a one-of-a-kind haunted toaster!

Well, the Devil, apparently. And nothing thaws a frozen waffle quite like scorching hellfire.

We’ve got one of those videos here - sent to us by our neighbor - so help us come up with an explanation! What could these orbs be?
