This week we’re recapping The Dead Files episode “House of Mirrors,” but — in true TAC fashion — we veer wildly off the rails in the best possible ways.

We also talked about Megan’s full-blown Oregon Chai obsession, Amy’s unexpected backyard cryptid sighting, whether possums are adorable or demonic, why yelling at ghosts never works, and the ongoing “tree burial vs. cremation vs. body farm” debate that absolutely will not die.

We talk of the upcoming season finale, listener suggestions for new investigations, potential paranormal podcast crossovers, and haunted places within road-trip distance that the TAC crew could visit in 2026.

Prepare for tricksters, history, side quests, and a whole lot of laughing at the absurdity of it all.

So grab your Oregon chai (trust us), get cozy, and join us…where The Activity Continues.

Content Warning:
In this episode we mention suicide by hanging (or was it?) and some child death in history.
Also, while Amy and Steve's swears are bleeped on TV, ours are not.
