Episode 52…Murder, Ma, and Moonshine at Indian Springs

Sometimes the history of a haunting is more bizarre than the ghosts themselves. There are things that walk the rows in Indian Springs Cemetery in Punta Gorda, Florida, but you can’t sorting out who might be making an appearance without coming across some of the darkest secrets and sketchiest characters in Southwest Florida’s history.

Trippers Natalie Crist and Christopher Balzano break down the suspect list, including a dead policeman, a young girl who may be destined to haunt two different locations, and a love triangle whose fingers might be in all the other stories.

Thank you to Richie Ferrara for bringing us the lead on Indian Springs and History’s Mysteries of Southwest Florida for much of the research mentioned in the show.

Check out the episode and all the videos from the actual legend trip, and listen to Episode 54 where we get there:

Check out Christopher Balzano’s books, including the newly released Haunted Ocala National Forest
