The Haint

August 11, 2026 • 58 mins
The Haint | Paranormal Podcast This week, we headed down to the Lowcountry to dig into one of the South's most fascinating and frustrating paranormal entities — the haint — which depending on who you ask is a ghost, a demon, an evil spirit tied to the earth, or honestly all of the above, rooted in the rich and deeply important traditions of the Gullah Geechee people and a blend of African, European, and Creole folklore...

The Spirits of Solace

July 28, 2026 • 57 mins
The Spirits of Solace | Paranormal Podcast This episode, we've got two listener submissions that are a little different from the usual... no demons clawing at you, no entities trying to drag you out of bed, just some genuinely peaceful and deeply personal encounters that somehow hit harder because of it. First is Leona from California, who at 13 or 14 during one of the hardest periods of her life woke up frozen in sleep paralysi...

The Shtriga

July 21, 2026 • 73 mins
The Shtriga | Paranormal Podcast This episode we dove into the Shtriga, the Albanian vampiric witch who doesn't lurk in a castle or avoid the sun, but instead lives right next door, blends in at the market, and waits until you're asleep to slip into your home as a moth, a fly, or a bee and quietly drain your life force while you're too exhausted to notice something's wrong. We broke down the full lore, from how she's made to how...

Terrified Together with Chilluminati Podcast | Paranormal Podcast We teamed up with Jesse, Mike, and Alex from the Chilluminati podcast for this Terrified Together, and the five of us tackled two listener submissions that had the whole group going back and forth on where the line is between what the mind creates and what's actually out there. First up was Ash's story. Ash experienced what we believe was sleep paralysis and woke ...

DMT Machine Elves

July 14, 2026 • 63 mins
DMT Machine Elves | Paranormal Podcast This week, we dove into the world of DMT and the Machine Elves, the strange interdimensional beings that thousands of people across the world, who have never met and had no reason to compare notes, keep describing in almost identical detail after taking one of the most powerful psychedelics known to exist. We broke down what DMT actually is, walked through a firsthand account of bursting thr...

The Silent Watcher

July 7, 2026 • 64 mins
The Silent Watcher | Paranormal Podcast This week, we've got 2 listener submissions that genuinely got under our skin — first from Logan in Indiana, who as a 3 or 4 year old kept waking up to a silent black humanoid figure slowly rocking in the chair across his room, and when we say silent, we mean the kind of deliberate, suffocating silence that swallowed even the sound of a child screaming for his parents. Then we dove i...

Phantom Time Conspiracy

June 30, 2026 • 61 mins
Phantom Time Conspiracy | Paranormal Podcast We went full conspiracy mode and tackled the Phantom Time Hypothesis, the genuinely wild theory that the Holy Roman Emperor Otto III conspired with Pope Sylvester II and the Byzantine Emperor Constantine VII to fabricate nearly 300 years of history, meaning we're not actually living in 2026, but somewhere closer to 1729. We broke down the evidence people point to, from the gap between...

June 26, 2026 • 37 mins
June 2026 Bizarre News - Paranormal Podcast This month's Bizarre News covers four stories that somehow span the full spectrum of weird — starting with a ghost hunting vlogger in Malaysia who went live, disappeared mid-stream for 40 hours, and was eventually found in a public restroom in a weakened state with zero explanation for where he'd been. We also got into a new UN-backed protocol that now requires international appr...

The Imjärvi Incident | Paranormal Podcast This week, we headed to January 1970 in the frozen forests of southern Finland to cover the Imjärvi UFO incident, where two experienced, credible cross-country skiers named Aarno and Esko stopped for a rest in a clearing and watched a metallic disc descend from a glowing cloud just meters above the ground, accompanied by a buzzing that wouldn't quit and a beam of intense white light that s...
