They thought they were investigating a haunting — but Hellier was hunting them the entire time. Some mysteries don't just hide—they fight back.
Welcome to the story of Hellier, a case so bizarre it shattered every assumption about the paranormal, secret experiments, and human belief itself. Was Hellier just another ghost story? Or was it a psychological operation buried beneath mountains of forgotten mines, secret societies, CIA experiments like MKUltra, and a terrifying web of occult manipulation?
In this mind-bending deep dive, we explore Greg Newkirk’s journey into the Appalachian dark—a journey that started with one mysterious email and spiraled into a nightmare of missing persons, glowing-eyed creatures, encrypted symbols, secret military experiments, and ultraterrestrial contact theories.
Is Hellier a real phenomenon—or an experiment designed to control belief itself?
We connect the dots between the Kelly-Hopkinsville Goblins, The Nine, Aleister Crowley's rituals, Project Stargate, and intelligence agency infiltration of cults to uncover a terrifying possibility: What if we aren’t chasing the mystery? What if the mystery is chasing us?
