Creepy Cars at Reno's National Automobile Museum

Talking Strange Paranormal Show

Feb 9 2024 • 39 mins

In a bit of a slight departure from the paranormal, this week Aaron takes a drive through history (thanks to the support of the Reno-Tahoe Territory). Phil MacDougall, president of the National Automobile Museum in Reno, Nevada, joins the show to discuss the landmark's 240 cars, their history, and some of the spooky stories connected to them. From cars owned by Elvis and Frank Sinatra, to a potentially haunted car that once belonged to James Dean, the stories of the National Automobile Museum cover a lot of ground. The 105,000 square foot National Automobile Museum's collection of 240 cars began with casino owner Bill Harrah, and continued after his death. Opened in 1989, the site was reported to have set the standard for automobile museums around the world. Since then, it has received many accolades and today it is recognized as one of 10 Best Automobile Museums in the U.S. Big thanks to the Reno-Tahoe Territory for the support in arranging this interview. _______________________________________________________________ Talking Strange Paranormal Podcast with Aaron Sagers is a weekly paranormal pop culture show featuring celebrity and author interviews, with a weekly "Small Talk" mini-sode with reader submitted letters and spooky tales.
