Step into a world where history and horror collide. Hexed: Stories of Cursed Objects is a podcast that digs into the chilling legends and haunted histories of the world’s most infamous artifacts. From the Dybbuk Box and Robert the Doll to the Hope Diamond and the Screaming Skull of Burton Agnes Hall, each episode uncovers the strange tales of objects said to bring misfortune, tragedy, or even death.
Hosted by Mark Houston, Hexed blends eerie storytelling with cultural history and a dose of skepticism. Are these objects truly cursed, or do fear, folklore, and psychology explain the mysteries? Either way, their stories continue to fascinate, frighten, and captivate.

Step into a world where history and horror collide. This episode of Hexed climbs to Bran Castle, the Transylvanian fortress marketed worldwide as Dracula's Castle.
Hosted by Mark Houston, Hexed blends eerie storytelling with cultural history and a dose of skepticism. Bram Stoker never set foot in Romania, Vlad the Impaler likely never lived here, and the Dracula connection was pushed hard by a 1960s tourism campaign. The real history of the castle is stranger than the legend wearing its name.

Hexed: Amityville
Step into a world where history and horror collide. This episode of Hexed walks into the house at 112 Ocean Avenue, the most famous haunted house address in America, and the site of a real, documented family tragedy in 1974.
Hosted by Mark Houston, Hexed blends eerie storytelling with cultural history and a dose of skepticism. The haunting that made this house famous came a year later, and one of its own architects, a defense attorney looking to sell a book, later admitted on the record that much of it was built over wine, not witnessed. Six real people deserve better than being remembered as the backdrop for a franchise.

Hexed: The Sallie House
Step into a world where history and horror collide. This episode of Hexed visits the Sallie House, a modest home in Atchison, Kansas, that's earned a reputation as one of the most haunted houses in America.
Hosted by Mark Houston, Hexed blends eerie storytelling with cultural history and a dose of skepticism. Local legend tells of a young patient who died on a doctor's operating table decades ago, though no historical record confirms she ever existed. What is documented is one family's genuinely frightening year inside an ordinary house, and the legend they left behind.
