Is this really our first ghost story to spawn from the dark winter nights of Minnesota?! Huddle close to the cozy fire to thaw those frosty nose hairs, and let’s hear the paranormal podcasters of The Activity Continues share why Minneapolis is more than just the best song from harmonic chick-rock 90’s band That Dog.

About the Guests: Amy, Megan, and AP of The Activity Continues
The Activity Continues is a paranormal podcast where Minnesotans Amy and Megan talk about ghosts, hauntings, psychics, movies and TV shows (especially The Dead Files), and other spooky things. TAC interviews past Dead Files clients and other interesting people in the paranormal community. Speaking of which, go check out the two-part TAC episode where they interview Becky and Diana: Haints Misbehavin!
Did Amy’s Realtor Hear The Ghost of Bootlegger Kid Cann?
Who is Kid Cann, anyway? Our guest Amy actually has yet another podcast which answers that question better than we could. Volsteadland is a true crime podcast about the seedy underworld of the 1920s and 30s in Minneapolis, focusing on notorious mobster Isadore Blumenfeld, a.k.a. Kid Cann.
Is the Lutsen Resort Haunted?
Any building that has burned down three separate times seems pretty likely to have incurred some weird vibes (although there were no reported casualties in any of the fires there). Unlike in the South, Minnesotans don’t always gab freely to tourists about their haunted hotels. They do plan on rebuilding, so maybe check the Lutsen Resort Facebook page for updates on new Minnesota ghost stories.
Don’t Talk About The Ghosts
When Megan lived in Bahrain, she couldn’t find any locals willing to talk with her about the supernatural phenomena she was experiencing. She mentioned in this episode that talking about spirits was a cultural taboo in that part of the Middle East because talking about spirits might manifest their presence. We’ve heard similar sentiments from several paranormal investigators we’ve talked with.
And indeed, when we started our little paranormal podcast, we both noticed increased phenomena in our lives. Is this superstition based on yellow car syndrome (which is apparently called Baader-Meinhof phenomenon in academic circles)? Or do you think it’s actually inevitable that, the more we talk about spirits, the more likely we are to have a spooky day?
