98. The Haunted Train Station in Staunton, Virginia

Is This a Ghost?

Toot-toot! It's another haunted train story, and you're going to love it! Unless you're like, "No more trains." Then we may have lost you with this one, and in that case, that's on us.

This is the story of the haunted train station in Staunton, VA. Come for the ghost, stay for the severed mannequin head aesthetic, a heart-shaped jacuzzi tub of a state, "Why you strap flashlight to fork with Mungo?", old fashioned knob whackin', the Malort of soda, Lady Thirst Trap, ships of the land, get mounted in Virginia, and a Jason Statham movie of an experience.
