  • Case 206: The Girl in the Closet: The Haunted Fairbanks House of Louisiana
    Jun 25 2026

    What really happened inside the Haunted Fairbanks House of Sicily Island, Louisiana?

    In this episode of True Hauntings, we investigate the disturbing story of the Fairbanks House, a historic Louisiana home now known for paranormal activity, ghost investigations, strange noises, shadow figures, alleged EVPs, and the chilling legend of “Henrietta’s Closet.”

    The story centres on Henrietta Fairbanks, a young woman said to have suffered from epilepsy and seizures before her early death in 1922. Over time, her real life appears to have been reshaped into something darker: a tale of confinement, a haunted closet, and a ghost story that has become part of the house’s modern paranormal reputation.

    But is the Fairbanks House truly haunted?

    Or has Henrietta’s story been transformed by rumour, psychic claims, paranormal investigators, ghost-hunting television, YouTube investigations, and the business of haunted tourism?

    Anne and Renata examine the history, the reported paranormal phenomena, the claims connected to The Dead Files episode “Bent on Revenge: Sicily Island, LA,” and the modern ghost stories surrounding the Haunted Fairbanks House. We look at the witness accounts, the investigation reports, the contradictions, and the way a tragic family story may have evolved into one of Louisiana’s most talked-about haunted house legends.

    This is not just a ghost story. It is a case about illness, grief, folklore, paranormal storytelling, and what can happen when the life of a real woman becomes the centrepiece of a haunting.

    Was Henrietta Fairbanks truly haunting the house?

    Or are we looking at a constructed paranormal narrative built from history, rumour, suggestion, and spectacle?

    Listen as we unpack the legend of The Girl in the Closet: The Haunted Fairbanks House of Louisiana.

  • Case 205: The Cideville Poltergeist: The Curse That Went to Court
    Jun 11 2026

    In this episode of True Hauntings Podcast, we investigate the strange and unsettling case of The Cideville Poltergeist, one of France’s most unusual 19th-century paranormal mysteries.

    In 1850, at a quiet presbytery in Cideville, Normandy, two boys studying under Curé Jean Tinel became the centre of a terrifying series of unexplained events: mysterious knocks in the walls, flying objects, moving furniture, musical raps, strange voices, and claims of a dark figure haunting the house.

    But this was no ordinary ghost story.

    The haunting soon turned into a legal battle when local shepherd Félix Thorel was accused of being connected to the disturbances through sorcery. Thorel denied the claims and sued the priest for defamation, turning the Cideville Poltergeist into a rare paranormal case that ended up in court.

    Was this a genuine poltergeist haunting? Were the boys responsible for the activity? Was Thorel a sorcerer, a scapegoat, or simply the man the village chose to blame? And how did fear, religion, gossip, and reputation turn strange knocks in a priest’s house into one of France’s most fascinating haunted history cases?

    Join us as we explore the priest, the shepherd, the two boys, and the curse that went to court.

  • Case 204: The Building That Remembers Too Much | Canberra Australia
    May 28 2026

    What if Australia’s official guardian of film and sound was also one of its most haunted buildings? In this episode of True Hauntings, Anne and Renata dive deep into the chilling paranormal activity reported inside the National Film and Sound Archive in Canberra.

    Staff witness tapes flying from impossible machines, doors opening by themselves, and lights flickering with no one nearby. Schoolchildren repeatedly see a little girl waving from a high grate that once overlooked the morgue — a friendly wave from a place no living child could reach. In the infamous Blood Room, visitors feel faint, smell decay, and watch torches die instantly. An electrical contractor was reportedly pinned to a wall by an unseen force, while ghost hunters recorded batteries draining simultaneously and a shadow figure moving through the dark.

    Who benefits from these stories staying alive — and why do credible witnesses, including long-term sceptics, keep reporting the same unsettling encounters? From the founder’s apparition stepping out of a wall to the deeper cultural weight still felt in the building, this is a haunting where the past refuses to stay archived.

    If you love real ghost stories, poltergeist activity, and haunted Australian landmarks, you won’t want to miss this one.

    Listen now and decide: is the NFSA truly one of Australia’s most haunted places?
