Generation X Paranormal

About Generation X Paranormal

Generation X Paranormal is a paranormal podcast where curiosity meets the unexplained—and the paranormal gets personal. Hosted by Logan and Nicole Mathias, the show explores ghost stories, haunted locations, paranormal investigations, UFO and UAP encounters, cryptids, haunted history, spirit communication, and true tales of high strangeness through firsthand investigations, expert interviews, and real-world experiences. From investigating some of the world's most haunted castles to talking with respected paranormal researchers, authors, and investigators, Generation X Paranormal takes listeners beyond the campfire stories to explore the people, places, and mysteries that continue to challenge our understanding of reality. Every episode blends history, eyewitness accounts, field investigations, and honest conversations with humor, empathy, and a distinctly Gen X perspective. We don't claim to have all the answers—but we're always willing to ask better questions. Whether you're fascinated by ghosts, haunted places, UFOs, Bigfoot, cryptids, supernatural mysteries, or the strange stories that refuse to be explained, you'll find a home here. You don't have to be Gen X to listen—but if you've ever felt that chill in the dark, whispered "what if?", or wondered whether there's more to this world than we can explain, you're one of us. Generation X Paranormal Real stories. Real weird. Still curious.

   The Haunted Aurora Brothel: Ghosts, EVPs & Dark Secrets of Missouri's 1890s Mining Town

   The Haunted Aurora Brothel: Ghosts, EVPs & Dark Secrets of Missouri's 1890s Mining Town This week on Generation X Paranormal, Logan and Nicole head to Aurora, Missouri, to investigate one of the town's most intriguing historic locations: the Aurora Brothel. Located near the historic railroad depot in what was once a booming Missouri mining town, this massive 19th-century building has a complicated past involving saloons, gambling, hotels, businesses, and the people who lived and worked in Aurora during its mining boom. Local history says the building was once a brothel, but our research uncovered a much more complicated story. Before the investigation even begins, Logan experiences a strong impression of a woman dressed in purple. Once inside, the team encounters reports of shadow figures, unexplained voices, strange activity, and a particularly disturbing presence in the basement. Then things get really interesting. During the investigation, we capture an EVP that appears to validate something Logan heard directly in his ear. We also receive responses about the building, its occupants, the rooms upstairs, and what one spirit claims happened there. Our historical research takes us back to the 1890s and the tragic story of Nora Henry, a woman who died after taking an overdose of morphine in a building directly across the street from the Aurora Brothel. Using historic newspapers and Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps, we trace the changing history of the buildings surrounding the location and examine what we can—and cannot—actually prove about Aurora's brothel history. Was this really a brothel? Who were the people who lived and worked here? Could the spirits still connected to this building be tied to its 19th-century history? And what exactly did we capture on our recorders? Join us for one of our most fascinating investigations yet as we explore the Aurora Brothel in Aurora, Missouri, its dark history, unexplained activity, and the EVPs captured inside this historic building. This is Generation X Paranormal — where curiosity meets the unexplained, and the paranormal gets personal.

   Offbeat Paranormal is Offbeat On Purpose and Offbeat by Design

   and Philip Cryer of Off Beat by Design to talk about one of the biggest needs in the paranormal community: custom merchandise. Off Beat by Design specializes in creating custom merchandise for paranormal teams, investigators, podcasters, creators and fans — including T-shirts, hoodies, hats, stickers, window decals, koozies and more. But this isn't simply a conversation about printing T-shirts. Amanda and Philip explain how they recognized a problem facing smaller paranormal teams: getting professional merchandise can be difficult when traditional vendors require large minimum orders or offer little opportunity for truly customized designs. Off Beat by Design was created to help solve that problem. A large portion of their work consists of custom orders, allowing paranormal teams and creators to develop merchandise that actually represents who they are rather than settling for generic designs. We talk about their design process, the importance of quality, creating merchandise around a team's identity, and how Off Beat by Design is helping make custom paranormal merchandise more accessible. They've also developed a unique model that allows individual paranormal teams and creators to have merchandise available to their own audiences while Off Beat by Design handles production and fulfillment. And Logan and Nicole have firsthand experience with the finished product — the Generation X Paranormal shirts we're wearing during this episode were designed and produced by Amanda and Philip. We'll also get into the origins of Offbeat Paranormal, their passion for ghosts, cryptids, UFOs and high strangeness, and the community that brought all of these interests together.

   Cyn Shrader Hill: Chilling EVPs, Haunted Places & Signs From Beyond

   What happens when the dead seem to find a way to answer back? On this episode of Generation X Paranormal, Logan and Nicole sit down with paranormal investigator, researcher, author, and founder of Elk Valley Paranormal, Cyn Shrader Hill, for an unforgettable conversation about Electronic Voice Phenomena (EVPs), haunted locations, paranormal investigation, spirits, and signs from beyond. Cyn has spent years investigating paranormal activity and documenting EVPs, and she shares some of her most compelling experiences—including a deeply personal EVP connected to her nephew Wyatt. During the conversation, Cyn plays the recording and explains why she believes it was a personal message from someone she loved. We talk about what makes an EVP convincing, why investigators have to be careful about hearing what they expect to hear, and why some of the most compelling evidence can come from surprisingly simple recording equipment. Cyn also explains why your own senses may be one of the most important tools you have during a paranormal investigation. Cyn takes us inside some of her most memorable investigations, including an old hospital in Tennessee that she describes as one of the most haunted places she has ever encountered. She discusses unexplained activity, a mysterious "true orb," and something else moving through the location that investigators captured on video. We also explore: • The difference between compelling EVPs and questionable recordings • Paranormal investigation equipment and digital recorders • Why cell phones can sometimes capture extraordinary evidence • Spirits that communicate, joke, become irritated, or simply want investigators to leave • Paranormal experiences involving family members after death • Faith, grief, and the possibility of communication after death • Cyn's journey from paranormal investigator to author • Her books and years of paranormal research • Why investigators should move beyond the standard questions during an investigation • Some of the most unusual experiences Cyn has encountered throughout her career This is a conversation about evidence, experiences, grief, curiosity, and the possibility that death may not be the end of communication. Listen closely. Some of the most compelling moments in this episode aren't stories about paranormal activity—they're the moments when the unexplained seems to answer back.
