The Covered Bridge

Vermont is home to many, many historic bridges — and if that doesn’t strike your fancy, the ghost haunting the Stowe Hollow bridge might. But who that ghost is, and why she’s so mad, are lost to history… and may never have been all that clear to begin with.

The Night Before

For two hundred years, a very famous poem has heralded the holiday season, and for some, the arrival of Santa Claus—but perhaps less known is the mystery it brings along with it. Whether you know it as “‘Twas the Night Before Christmas” or “A Visit from St. Nicholas,” there’s more to this one than mice and stockings and ho ho ho.  Head to factormeals.com/ost50 and use code ost50 to get 50% off!

Re-Release: The Genius

Laurah’s out sick; please enjoy a re-release of one of our favorite episodes.  A Washington man named Jason Padgett loved partying, muscle cars, and getting buff at the local gym, and would have been content to live his life singing karaoke and chasing girls--until a fateful attack changed his worldview. . . quite literally. When he woke up the next day after receiving serious blows to the head, Jason realized that he could see things that others couldn’t. And he didn’t know what to make of them.  Sources on our website: https://www.onestrangethingpodcast.com/ Join us on Patreon for early release and ad-free episodes, exclusive stories, and bonus episodes: https://www.patreon.com/OneStrangeThing Find us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/OSTPod Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/onestrangethingpod/  and Facebook https://www.facebook.com/One-Strange-Thing-114307627035607 Written and Hosted Laurah Norton Researched by Laurah Norton and Bryan Worters Produced and Engineered by Maura Currie  Sources on our website: https://www.onestrangethingpodcast.com/ Join us on Patreon for early release and ad-free episodes, exclusive stories, and bonus episodes: https://www.patreon.com/OneStrangeThing You can also subscribe to premium episodes on Apple Premium and Supercast!
