Show Notes

Ghostly holiday parties, dancing desert lights, and a low‑tide cave with a mind of its own. Ready to let curiosity win for one spooky night?

In this episode, we cover:

  • Halloween traditions in and around the parks!
  • El Tovar at Grand Canyon and the friendly specter of Fred Harvey
  • Big Bend by night, unexplained lights, and why it can feel like the loneliest park in the lower 48
  • Acadia’s Devil’s Oven sea cave, low tide, and why the NPS wants you to give it space
