👻"I came face to face with porcelain doll in a wheelchair" | Haunted Health Inspections - Ep. 26

Happy Halloween! 🎃 In this spooky bonus episode of the Beyond Data Management Podcast (powered by HS GovTech), host Cameron Garrison and producer Christina Miller bring you real-life ghost stories straight from the Reddit health-inspector community — plus a very special guest: Vinny the Skeleton 🦴 (complete with a hot date named Audrey).

Originally pitched in August by Tina (who knew inspectors had creepy tales), we asked the 6,000+ members of the r/EnvironmentalHealth subreddit:

“Tell us your haunted restaurant or facility ghost stories!”

You delivered — and we’re reading the best ones on air.

👻 Featured Chills:

🎃 A 1700s catering kitchen where a shadowy figure in black vanished into a storage room…

🎃 A bar basement with 3 confirmed deaths, a porcelain doll in a wheelchair that turned to face the inspector…

🎃 Utensils flying, cutting boards moving, and Ghost Hunters filming — with zero evidence… until the inspectors saw it themselves.

🎙️ On Set Today:

🦴 Cameron Garrison (Host)
🦴 Christina Miller (Producer & Halloween Mastermind)
🦴 Vinny the Skeleton - (Guest Co-Host, arthritis and all)
🦴 David Styles (Control Room Wizard behind the spooky graphics)

From creaky wooden hatches leading to spider-infested basements to hidden daycare rooms behind fake walls, health inspectors see it all — including things that shouldn’t be there.

“I saw the doll facing me… when I came back around the circle, it was facing me again.” 😱

🎃 Bonus Fun:

Vinny gets a girlfriend (Audrey the carnivorous plant)

Puns, full-size candy bars, and THC jello-shot neighbors

Teaser: Next Tuesday — Graham Mitchell (EH thought leader and frequent BBC contributor) shares his story and brings some great pictures including a mouse baked into a loaf of bread 🐭🍞
