    Paranormal Pets - Episode 135 From Thrift to Thrill: Haunted Finds & Furry Phantoms
    Oct 16 2025
    On this Halloween potpourri of Paranormal Pets, host Brandy Stark cozies up with sleeping pugs, candlelight, and a stack of spooky curios. From the pages of Weird Florida come animal afterlife legends—Old Bob, the hearse-pulling horse; Brownie the Town Dog; and Key West’s rooster graveyard—plus a shoutout to a thrift-store treasure hunt that funds a local women’s shelter. Brandy also unveils her newest museum oddities: a 1960s “biting” nun doll with EMF surprises and a granite tombstone for Buttercat from a New Orleans pet cemetery—complete with a mob-tinged backstory—currently riding in her bright red hearse. Rounding it out: reported ghost-cat visitations to a team member’s kitchen. Pour something warm, dim the lights, and settle in for heart, history, and hauntings.

    Oct 1 2025
    Pumpkin spice candles lit, pugs snoring, and the veil officially thin—welcome to Paranormal Pets: Halloween Potpourri. Host Brandy Stark catches us up on a wild summer: the saga of her bright red hearse (now resurrected with a new engine), a brutal tibial plateau fracture and recovery, and Ajax the pug’s emergency IVDD surgery—and triumphant return to walkies. Then it’s story time: a galloping glimpse of the Phantom Horse of Celery Avenue from Weird Florida, and the legend (and investigation) of Morris the Casino Cat in Gulfport—beloved mascot, possible urban legend, definite good-luck charm. Brandi also teases the 2025 update of Supernatural St. Petersburg & Paranormal Pinellas, her new haunted columns for The Gabber, and local spooky events. Settle in for cozy creeps, animal apparitions, and a few real-life scares with happy endings.
