Parallel Dimensions
November 10, 2020 09:00 - 37 minutes - 21.9 MBSend us a Text Message. Imagine, one day your walking through a park, just relaxing and taking in the beautiful weather. As you amble along, a seemingly shaken man approaches you and starts to worriedly ask you dozens of questions about the name of the town, country, maybe even the name of the planet. His use of the language that you speak is broken. It's close but not quite right. As you try to calm the man, he starts to explain that none of what you're telling him is right. Mayb...
The Lizard Man
November 03, 2020 09:00 - 27 minutes - 13 MBSend us a Text Message. South Carolina is a beautiful state. On the east side, you could go, kick back and relax on the Myrtle Beach boardwalk. Take in some amazing ocean scenery at Huntington Beach State Park, maybe even do a little fishing while you're there. If sandy beaches aren't what you're in the mood for, you could travel to the west side of the state and take a hike through the gorgeous Blue Ridge mountains. Maybe even rent a quiet cabin in the woods where you could spend ...
The True Story of the Exorcist
October 27, 2020 08:00 - 55 minutes - 24.8 MBSend us a Text Message. Horror movies are an absolute staple during October. Some people think that modern horror is the way to go while others swear that the classics will never be beaten. Personally, I think that it's kind of a mix. James Wan is, in my opinion, one of the best horror movie directors ever. At the same time I consider John Carpenter to be phenomenal when it comes to relating an absolutely terrifying tale. No matter which side you take in this particular debate t...
The Harrisville Haunting (The real story of the Conjuring)
October 20, 2020 08:00 - 27 minutes - 18.8 MBSend us a Text Message. While everyone has a different idea of the perfect home, I'm pretty sure that the one thing that almost always remains the same is the thought of owning our own little slice of paradise. Safety, peace and quiet, enough property to do with whatever our imagination can dream up. We think of our home as being the one place where nothing can harm us. The one place where we can walk through the door, breath a heavy sigh, let go of all of the stress from the...
The Pascagoula Abduction
October 13, 2020 08:00 - 20 minutes - 12.6 MBSend us a Text Message. Pascagoula Mississippi, is a small southern town located on the Gulf of Mexico. It may not be, one stop sign, the butcher is the coroner, every modern Reese Witherspoon movie takes place there, small....but it only has around 20,000 people, so not exactly big city living. While small town living definitely has it's charm it can also mean that most everyone in the area is heavily involved in everyone's business. “Oh my gosh, (it is part of the bible belt) did y...
The Dybbuk Box
October 06, 2020 08:00 - 24 minutes - 16.8 MBSend us a Text Message. Personally, I absolutely love going to antique shops and flea markets. There's just something about going through all of the stuff, some of it newer and some of it old. Every time I find an older object, I feel this inner drive to learn all that I can about what ever the thing is. Like, when was this particular toy made? How in the hell did they keep this mirror in such amazing condition for all of these years? Is this really an original copy of Moby Dick s...
The Legend of Okiku
September 29, 2020 08:00 - 20 minutes - 12.6 MBSend us a Text Message. In 2002, a movie called The Ring was released. It told the story of a girl that had been thrown into a well and then came back as a vengeful spirit that chose her victims via a video tape. Once someone watched the video, they would get a call saying that they would die in seven days. While it did make for some pretty gory death scenes, as a whole idea, to me at least, was pretty ridiculous. That's why it was kind of mind blowing and all together exciting when I d...
The Philip Experiment
September 15, 2020 09:00 - 20 minutes - 12.8 MBSend us a Text Message. It feels like it's pretty safe to say that most of us have, at one point or another, tried to contact someone from the other side. Maybe we were at a sleepover at a friends house when somebody decided that it would be a good idea to play with an ouija board. Or, maybe some of us took it a little further and got together with the sole purpose being to have a séance. To willfully try to connect with a certain spirit. The world of the paranormal comes with doz...
Dopplegangers
September 08, 2020 09:00 - 23 minutes - 13.9 MBSend us a Text Message. There are over 7 billion people in the world today. Many people believe that at any given time there are roughly 7 human beings walking around that look exactly like you. With those numbers, that gives you approximately a 0.0000001% chance of actually meeting one of your twins. But what if you're away on vacation, taking a scenic walk, enjoying the sights of a new place when, all of a sudden, the hair on your neck and arms stands up as an ice cold chill runs down you...
The Possession of Michael Taylor
September 01, 2020 09:00 - 18 minutes - 10.7 MBSend us a Text Message. Today we're going to stick around Europe and visit a small town called Ossett located in the United Kingdom. Ossett is located in between Dewsbury to the west and Wakefield to the east. It has a population of around 21,000 people. So basically, it's big enough for a Wal-Mart but maybe not big enough for a Target. That's a reference for us in the colonies. LOL. Sorry, had to throw that in there. Anyway, it truly seems like a picturesque town that is perfect for raisin...
Cursed Videos
September 01, 2020 09:00 - 17 minutes - 10.7 MBSend us a Text Message. The internet is arguably the single greatest invention in human history. We can reach out to and connect with people all over the world in an instant. We can research any topic that our minds can dream up. We can listen to our favorite band or song no matter how new or how old it may be and we can play it over and over until we can't get it out of our heads. I'm looking at you Rick Astley. LOL. We can also find just about any movie ever made. Sometimes though, as we ...
The Boggart
August 18, 2020 09:00 - 16 minutes - 9.76 MBSend us a Text Message. Today, we're taking a little trip across the pond. England is one of the oldest continually functioning countries ever. While most Americans tend to think of overcast skies and more than their fair share of rain, the country is also known for some of the most beautiful scenery found on earth. After spending some time on different sites covering some of the strangest legends from all over the globe I came across an old Celtic legend of a household spirit which can be ...
Shadow People
August 11, 2020 09:00 - 18 minutes - 11.4 MBSend us a Text Message. Late one Friday night, your sitting alone in your living room, lights turned off, maybe watching a scary movie with a bowl of popcorn. Seemingly out of nowhere, you catch a glimpse out of the corner of your eye. Did someone just walk through the room? Why didn't you hear any foot steps? Why did they look blacker than the darkness? Crushing fear reigns down over you like a cold shower. This is the most common reaction people report after having an experience with shad...
Devil's Tree
August 04, 2020 09:00 - 18 minutes - 10.9 MBSend us a Text Message. New Jersey is one of those rare states where you can find bustling metropolises nestled in the middle of endless miles of countryside. Personally I always thought that the whole state was all about “hey, how you doin?” and “say hello to your mother for me” LOL. Kidding, just kidding. While the state is known for having a big city feel, it also has a slower side filled with many acres of farmland where you might pass by Bernard's Township. But, maybe Jersey is a littl...
Dolce New Mexico Alien Base
July 28, 2020 09:00 - 16 minutes - 10 MBSend us a Text Message. Dulce New Mexico is a small town located on the border of N.M. And Colorado. With a population of around 3000 people, it's basically a blink and you'll miss it kind of place. Even though the town is tiny it is the headquarters of the Jicarilla Apache reservation. On the surface Dulce seems like an average place where life seems to move a little slower but, if you dig a little deeper (literally) you just might come across the home to not just one kind, but many differ...
The Rake
July 21, 2020 09:00 - 18 minutes - 10.4 MBSend us a Text Message. In 2005, a story was posted on 4chan saying "hey, lets create a new monster". After a massive amount of input from the darkest corners of imagination, The Rake came into existence. Is the monster just a made up nightmare or could the description have been pulled from long ago when darkness was an unnerving glimpse into the unknown. Support the Show.
Murphysboro Mud Monster
July 14, 2020 09:00 - 17 minutes - 8.73 MBSend us a Text Message. In June of 1973, a small Illinois town would experience a rash of unusual sightings that would leave the small community reeling for decades to come. Whether the you call it the Murphysboro Mud Monster or the Big Muddy Monster, the reports are unnerving to say the least. Support the Show.
