abandoned: The All-American Ruins Podcast | Season 3, Episodes 7–9

2 min readApr 29, 2025

We’re three-quarters of the way through the release of season 3! The next three episodes are live, and we’ll be releasing episodes every other week through June, with a couple of surprises on the horizon.

EPISODE 7: “Fear”

Formerly a curtain shop in Niagara Falls, NY, a strange abandoned commercial space overlooking the St. Lawrence Seaway draws Blake in as he ruminates on fear, in all of its unknowable power and mystery.

EPISODE 8: “Someone Lives Here”

“Abandoned” doesn’t always mean “empty,” and in one particular vacant mini-mansion in Merida, Mexico, that is precisely the case. Continuing on his international circuit, join Blake as he spins an imaginary folk tale about the people who used to live in this house, while wandering its halls and reflecting on family, poetry, and gun violence.

This episode features:

  • Perla Ayora
  • Joseph Darnell
  • Dorian Darnell
  • Elsa Darnell

EPISODE 9: “A Finnish Ghost Story”

Deep in the woods of the Finnish countryside sits a quaint house, red, and completely abandoned. In this international episode of abandoned, follow Blake inside where he has a run-in with a ghost — and not an imaginary one.
