    • Bedtime Story #31: Creepy Encounters at Joint Forces Training Base (Los Alamitos, CA)
      Oct 27 2025

      Deep within the Joint Forces Training Base in Los Alamitos, California, something sinister lurks in the shadows. This chilling episode features a firsthand account from Tales From The Grid Square, a collection dedicated to paranormal experiences from military personnel across the country.

      Growing up on base, one family discovered that certain buildings held dark secrets—an old theater where phantom audiences appeared in photographs, Building Five where contractors unearthed a forgotten morgue during renovations, and abandoned hangars where a woman in white with hollow black eyes terrorizes night patrols. Military police officers share their terrifying encounters: shadow figures charging down hallways, disembodied screams echoing through empty aircraft hangars, and invisible hands choking a lone officer during his rounds.

      With decades of military history and countless service members stationed there, the Joint Forces Training Base in Los Alamitos has become one of Southern California's most haunted military installations. From the eerie lodging above Fiddler's Green to the demolished Building Five where they discovered human remains, this sprawling base harbors numerous locations known for paranormal activity that even the toughest soldiers refuse to patrol alone.

      Join us as we explore these spine-tingling military encounters and discover why this training base has earned its reputation as a place where the living and the dead share the same grid square.

      Special thanks to Tales From The Grid Square for sharing this terrifying collection of military paranormal experiences.

    • S9E5: Colorado Street Bridge | Pasadena, CA
      Jun 1 2025

      Trigger Warning: This episode contains discussions of suicide, including real-life incidents and urban legends. Listener discretion is advised.


      Step into the chilling shadows of Pasadena’s Colorado Street Bridge—infamously known as “Suicide Bridge”—in this haunting episode of The Scarecast. Mike explores the bridge’s tragic legacy, from its construction in 1913 through decades of sorrow, supernatural encounters, and stories shared by listeners and locals alike.


      Episode Highlights:

      • Discover the urban legend of a worker entombed in concrete and the real-life 1913 construction accident that claimed a life and may have sparked the bridge’s haunted reputation.
      • Hear the heartbreaking story of Myrtle Ward, who, overwhelmed by despair, jumped from the bridge with her young daughter in 1937. Miraculously, her daughter survived, and this event led to the installation of the first suicide barrier.
      • Listeners and locals report sightings of a sorrowful woman in white, believed to be Myrtle or a jilted bride, and a mysterious man in wire-rimmed glasses who silently wanders the bridge before vanishing. Underneath the bridge, some have heard chilling whispers like “her fault” and “jump.”
      • The episode recounts the 2008 murder-suicide involving Walter Garcia, as well as the 2015 death of actor Sam Sarpong, highlighting the bridge’s ongoing struggle with its tragic reputation despite increased prevention efforts..
      • Several Firsthand Paranormal Encounters (as detailed below)


      Listeners share spine-tingling experiences:

      - Feeling unseen hands beneath the bridge

      - Witnessing vanishing figures and “ghost jumpers”

      - Hearing unexplained screams and voices

      - Encounters with shadowy forms and sudden waves of sadness or fear


      The episode concludes with a heartfelt reminder about the importance of mental health and suicide prevention, urging anyone struggling to reach out to the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline at 988 for immediate support. If you or someone you know is struggling, please call or text 988 or visit 988lifeline.org. You are not alone, and help is always available.

    • S9E4: Inglewood Horror Stories (Inglewood Park Cemetery, Airport Park View Hotel, and Centinela Park)
      May 19 2025

      On this episode of The Scarecast, we’re diving deep into the haunted heart of Inglewood, California - a city where the past lingers in the shadows and every landmark seems to have a story to tell. In this episode, we’ll unravel chilling tales from three of Inglewood’s most infamous sites: Inglewood Park Cemetery, the old Airport Park View Hotel (now The Lum Hotel), and Centinela Park, now known as Edward Vincent Jr. Park.

      Inglewood Park Cemetery is more than just a final resting place for Hollywood legends-it’s a hotspot for ghostly encounters. Listeners have shared stories of vanishing hitchhikers, mysterious figures in mariachi suits, and the laughter of unseen children echoing through the night. But the cemetery isn’t the only place where the supernatural seeps through the city’s surface. The Airport Park View Hotel, now The Lum Hotel, sits on land with a reputation for restless spirits. Across town, Centinela Park-renamed Edward Vincent Jr. Park-holds its own dark secrets. Beyond the ghost stories and eerie feelings, the park was the site of one of Inglewood’s most tragic crimes: the 1937 abduction and murder of three young girls, an event that cast a shadow over the community for generations.

      Whether you’re a lifelong local or just passing through, Inglewood’s haunted history is impossible to ignore. So turn down the lights, lock your doors, and join us as we explore the true horror stories that make Inglewood one of Southern California’s most haunted cities. This is The Scarecast, Season 9, Episode 4: Inglewood Horror Stories.
