Dr. Tirrell De Gannes, a Licensed Clinical Psychologist, offers insights on managing nightmare-induced stress. Check out this study by his Thriving Center of Psychology. It reveals Americans' real-life fears through their most-searched nightmares, including:

  • Top states haunted by nightmares: Wyoming, Vermont, Alaska, North Dakota, and Delaware

  • Most common nightmare nationwide: teeth falling out

  • 25% say nightmares have predicted real-life events

  • 42% experience increased anxiety after nightmares

Jonathan Trujillo King with the Utah Arts Alliance, which bought the historic—and quite possibly haunted—15th Ward Chapel at 915 W.t 100 S., SLC. King shares stories of the "shadow person" and the case of the 150 murdered bagpipers.

  • ART CASTLE: Utah Arts Alliance plans to create a community gathering space in the 120-year-old building, including an immersive art attraction, space for concerts and events, and an outdoor sculpture garden. To learn more and get involved, click here. 

Poet RJ Walker adds his verse to the show, including poems from his pandemic project, The Ghost Was Always The Machine. It's a gamebook of interactive poems and stories that take players between a physical book and a digital book.
