Trey Hudson, author, military veteran, and paranormal investigator, joins to discuss his book and research into a high-strangeness area known as "The Meadow" in the southern U.S., a location compared to Skinwalker Ranch.
During a 2016 investigation, a team observed Bob, a field operative, inexplicably transform into an orb of light on thermal imaging—while Bob claimed he simply walked across the area.
Team experienced encounters with hominid-like figures and odd GPS tracking data showing impossible straight-line paths. Bob’s data later disappeared from his SD card. Hypnotic regression failed to recover his memory.
Team observed man-sized heat signatures and bizarre thermal-only visible cubes appearing in the meadow. A volunteer entered one, vanishing from thermal view and encountering an altered reality. Two people from that encounter later died.
Trey experienced a profound disorientation near a creek, unable to recognize familiar terrain. Found an unusual sapling bent into a perfect oval—possibly a natural marker or dimensional portal.
Discussed desire for advanced monitoring tools like lasers and EMF/radiation loggers. Team also uses techniques like the Estes Method, meditation, Monroe Institute principles, and the God Helmet to enhance encounters.
Mention of classical abduction symptoms, shadow entities, and dogman tracks found near Trey's home. Discussed theory of ultra-terrestrials—entities that manifest in different forms (UFOs, Bigfoot, ghosts) depending on how they interact with our dimension.
Team members have experienced poltergeist-type activity post-expedition. Trey's team is exploring simulation theory and notes thematic overlaps between high-strangeness
