    Box of Oddities Live National Tour September 10 - October 31, Halloween Night. Learn More Here! In this episode of The Box of Oddities, Kat and Jethro raise a glass to history’s most unsettling happy hour. First, a post-mortem fashion icon: the corpse of Countess Virginia Oldoini, a.k.a. the Countess of Castiglione—19th-century Italian aristocrat, secret agent, fashion influencer, and full-time narcissist. She posed for over 400 photos, staged her own haunting re-creations of operas, and spent her final years obsessively preparing to be seen dead just right. Spoiler: her afterlife aesthetic was more “ghost of Versailles” than “eternal slay.” Then, we stumble drunkenly across the globe to explore humanity’s weirdest regional cocktails. From "Fat Ass In A Glass" to "The Burnt Trailer", these aren’t your hipster speakeasy cocktails. They’re historic. They’re horrifying. They’ll make you question your liver’s will to live. Drink deeply from the odd. #BoxOfOddities #WeirdHistory #CountessCastiglione #StrangeButTrue #BizarreDrinks #MacabreFashion #FermentedWhat #OddlyInformative #HistoryIsDrunk Learn more about your ad choices.

    Learn More About The Live Fall Tour Tickets! INBOX OF ODDITIES #053– “Wall Wig & The Certified Bird Whisperer” 🕳️ Welcome to the weirdest corner of listener mail. In this jam-packed Inbox of Oddities episode, we crack open some of the most deliciously deranged, hilariously haunted, and poultry-psychic tales our Freak Fam has ever sent. ✨ This week: A shadowy tapping in the night reveals… a single chair in a secret crawlspace. A tuft of mysterious human hair erupts from an attic wall, sparking the birth of “Wall Wig.” We meet a man who once charged $20 to translate for live parakeets, and somehow had a waitlist. One couple’s romantic legacy is sealed in buttered toast and wet hair. A feline named Barbara Dolly sends psychic war movie signals through the ether. A ghost with a very specific hatred for Zoom meetings haunts one poor listener’s office décor. The cheese moon conspiracy is exposed (thanks, Uncle Spreadsheet). 🛸 Whether it’s paranormal plumbing, psychic poultry, or lunar dairy deprogramming—this episode’s got it all. Buckle up, Butterbutt. 🎙️ Listen now and remember: If your attic has hair, don’t poke it. Just burn the house. #ParanormalPodcast #BoxOfOddities #InboxOfOddities #TrueWeird #ListenerStories #ShadowPeople #GhostZoom #BirdMedium #CheeseMoonTruth #WallWig2025 #HauntedAF #StayWeirdFreakFam Learn more about your ad choices.

First, we chew over the gluttonous fate of King Adolf Fredrik of Sweden, whose last meal was so epic it could've headlined a buffet apocalypse. Spoiler: he literally ate himself to death.
