Late one night in 2012, tonight’s guest was riding home with her fiancé in Marietta, Ohio, after feeding, watering, and exercising her horse where she had been boarding him. Her fiancé was driving, and “Mandy” had her feet up on the dashboard on the passenger side of his truck.

As they drove past Sacra Via Park, all of a sudden, her fiancé slammed on the brakes and stopped the truck in the road. When Mandy ...

Tonight’s guest, Ken, was born and raised in Susquehanna County, Pennsylvania. Located along the northern edge of the Endless Mountains, Susquehanna County is home to countless forest-covered, rolling hills and the kind of terrain that would make it easy for a large cryptid to remain hidden.

Late one night, in November of 2016, Ken was driving his ex-girlfriend around while she delivered newspapers on a route the two o...

Nine years ago, tonight’s guest, Dave, contacted me to tell me about a Dogman encounter he’d had not long before reaching out to me. The encounter had traumatized him, and he contacted me hoping I could help him come to terms with what he’d experienced.

Dave was no stranger to the woods. He’d spent untold hours in the outdoors over the years, doing all sorts of things. In fact, many years before his D...

Tonight’s guest wishes to remain anonymous, so I’m going to call her “Nicki” on tonight’s show. Nicki lives near the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains. That’s by design, not by chance. You see, she’s always loved spending time in the outdoors. In fact, for the longest time, one of her favorite things to do was take her massive Husky/Lab mix, Steel, to a nearby reservoir, close to a pla...

If someone discovers what they believe might be evidence left behind by a Dogman—such as tufts of fur, unusual tree gouges, tracks, or other signs—they can photograp...

Tonight's guest, Nadine Smith, is a paranormal investigator who has had some extremely frightening experiences with ghosts, demons, or whatever they were. None of those experiences frightened her as much as a bad Dogman encounter she had one night, at her home, however. You see, that night, she watched a Dogman rip the front door of her home off, merely feet from where she was standing in her home. She’s had other Dogman enco...

Tonight’s guest, Joe Bass, describes himself as a backwoods Appalachian with a lifetime of bushcraft experience. Growing up in the mountains of Appalachia, he spent countless hours exploring the rugged wilderness, and over the years, he had more than his share of memorable experiences there. None of them, however, compared to what happened on June 13, 2020, when he came face-to-face with a jet-black Dogman.

Tonight’s guest, Caleb White, has been interested in Werewolves for as long as he can remember. Before he saw the movie Silver Bullet, for the first time, when he was a kid, he was already fascinated in Werewolves. When he saw that movie, however, the hook was officially set. Back then, Werewolves were figments of our imagination. When Caleb and his best friend, Ethan, would play in the woods on his Pawpaw’s property, i...

Tonight’s guest, Brett Ford, had two encounters with what some people would call Bearwolves, while he and his family were visiting Newfoundland, last summer. The encounters happened in fairly quick succession, on the same night, which makes Brett think they were connected somehow. The two Bearwolves/Dogmen he saw were definitely different creatures, as they looked different from one another. The first one he saw, near Cornerb...

In the summer of 2000, on a beautiful, sunny day, tonight’s guest, Randy, was driving home down a country road when he saw something that fits the description of being a Werewolf much more so than that of a Dogman. Werewolves don’t exist, though. Or do they? Randy says that he didn’t fear anything before he had that encounter, but when you see something that gives you every indication that it was a real-life Werew...

Not long after he had left the church, he turned down a secluded road that h...

On November 17th of 1995, tonight’s guest, Bruno Thompson, was scouting the forest where he and his Uncle Tony planned to deer hunt the next morning, in Wisconsin. Bruno had already spent countless hours in the woods by then, even though he was quite a bit younger.

Tonight’s guest, Michaela, lives on the Gold Coast of Australia and 41 years ago, in 1985, she had a Dogman encounter there. You see, she had just left a nightclub and was walking home when it happened. She had spent hours at the nightclub, but she was still sober, as she hadn’t had much, at all, to drink. At the time, she had never heard about Dogmen or what a Dogman could look like. That was about to change.

    Love Trapped

    Former Bachelor Clayton Echard’s casual one-night fling turned into a paternity nightmare. When the news broke about the scandal, no one believed Clayton at first. He was a reality TV star, and an unpopular one at that. Clayton found himself trying to prove the truth, while trapped in a web of lies, manipulation, and threats. He would soon discover he was not the only one. At its core, this is a story about who you believe and why. It’s an epic battle that would take a group of strangers, citizen sleuths from across the world, to crack the case and finally hold someone accountable. New episodes of Love Trapped are released every Thursday, starting February 26th, 2026. If you would like to reach out to the Love Trapped team, email us at lovetrappedpod@gmail.com and follow along on Instagram @glasspodcasts.
