    Paranormal Pets - Episode 140 Things That Go Bark in the Night: Paranormal Pugs & Haunted Happenings
    2026/08/22
    This week on Paranormal Pets, host Brandy Stark catches us up on the latest adventures of her paranormal pug pack—including adorable new black pug puppy Telemachus—and some decidedly strange activity surrounding her four-legged ghost hunters. When an electronic candle mysteriously switches on by itself at Brandy's reportedly haunted art studio, one of her pugs suddenly begins barking intensely at the exact spot as though someone—or something—is standing there. Brandy also shares what happens when her pugs encounter allegedly haunted dolls and other unusual artifacts destined for her planned paranormal museum. Then local author Deb Carson joins the show to talk about her own connection to the paranormal, her experiences in some of St. Petersburg's spirited locations, and the remarkable personal history behind her book Becoming Flo: A Mostly True Story. From haunted hideaways and mysterious canine reactions to pugs, spirits and things that go bark in the night, it's another wonderfully weird journey into the world where pets and the paranormal collide.

  • Paranormal Pets - Episode 139 When Animals Know Exactly What We Need

    Paranormal Pets - Episode 139 When Animals Know Exactly What We Need
    2026/08/11
    Can animals sense when we need them most? This week on Paranormal Pets, Brandy Stark welcomes back Ellie Laks, founder of The Gentle Barn, to celebrate her new children's book, Gentle, and explore the extraordinary emotional and spiritual connections between animals and children. Ellie shares the remarkable true story of John Lewis, a calf rescued from a slaughterhouse who was gravely ill but, surrounded by love, veterinary care and the companionship of a dog named Skye, grew into a thriving 2,500-pound "grass puppy." She also recounts the deeply moving story of a troubled teenager whose life was transformed through her bond with John Lewis and the animals at The Gentle Barn. From cows that seem to instinctively know whether someone needs laughter, comfort or simply a quiet presence, to the healing power of kindness itself, this episode is a beautiful reminder that sometimes the animals in our lives understand far more than we realize.

  • Paranormal Pets - Episode 137 January Potpourri: Three Knocks and a Warning: When the Dead Speak Through Pets

    Paranormal Pets - Episode 137 January Potpourri: Three Knocks and a Warning: When the Dead Speak Through Pets
    2026/01/28
    In this gripping episode of Paranormal Pets, Brandy Stark shares a deeply personal and unsettling series of events that began with the ominous legend of the Three Knocks—a supernatural warning often associated with illness, danger, or death. When unexplained knocking echoes from inside a locked garage and every dog in the house reacts, fear quickly turns into a months-long unraveling of strange coincidences, spirit visitations, and profound synchronicities. From impossible object movements and symbolic messages linked to a late father, to the chilling discovery that a haunted pet tombstone now in her care belongs to a woman whose murder was later featured on true-crime television, this episode blurs the line between grief, intuition, and the paranormal. It’s a haunting exploration of ancestral connection, animal sensitivity, and the moments when the veil feels terrifyingly thin.

    2025/10/16
    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.

    Pumpkin spice candles lit, pugs snoring, and the veil officially thin—welcome to Paranormal Pets: Halloween Potpourri.

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.
