  • The Enfield Horror
    Aug 6 2025
    Each year, people around the world report having encounters with bizarre animals that seem not to be of this earth. It occurs so frequently that an entire scientific discipline, cryptozoology, was established to study the phenomenon. For a brief period during the early 1970s, one small town in rural Illinois would briefly play host to an entity so mysterious that neither the residents themselves nor anyone else has ever encountered it again. Just what exactly was the Enfield Horror?

  • The Missing Airman
    Jul 30 2025
    In most missing persons cases, time eventually provides answers. The individual is either found safe and well, or, sadly, they are located after passing. However, in a frustratingly small number of cases, neither the family nor the public ever receives true closure. When this lack of resolution is due to police failings, the consequences can be devastating. This was certainly the case in the investigation we’ll be exploring in this episode: that of the Missing Airman.

  • Secrets of Celle Neues Rathaus
    Jul 16 2025
    During the Cold War, soldiers stationed on an army base in the German city of Celle began to report strange, unexplainable experiences. As time wore on, many of the men came to believe they were being terrorised by a sinister paranormal presence. These encounters proved so horrifying that some took their own lives rather than face another night on patrol. Whilst the incidents were largely dismissed, experts have uncovered long-hidden secrets that prove these men might have been telling the truth. Indeed, few places in the world have a darker, more sinister history than the Celle Neues Rathaus.

  • Who are the Men in Black?
    Jul 9 2025
    Having an encounter with a UFO is one of the most bizarre and overwhelming events a person might experience. But in a large percentage of these cases, the sighting itself is just the beginning. Over the years, hundreds of witnesses have reported being visited by strange, unearthly men in the days and weeks following their sightings. Are they government agents of suppression, extraterrestrial visitors in disguise, or something else entirely? Who are the Men in Black? And what can we learn from the recent videos that claim to finally prove their existence?

  • The Peculiar Death of Christopher Case
    Jul 2 2025
    In April 1991, the body of an otherwise healthy 35-year-old man was found inside his Seattle apartment. He was fully clothed, kneeling in an empty bathtub, with no signs of a struggle or forced entry. The death was quickly written off as the result of natural causes. But when his friends came forward, they told a different story. They claim he’d spent a week evading a supernatural force he swore had been sent to kill him. Did he literally scare himself to death? Or was the peculiar death of Christoper Case really the result of a witch’s curse?

  • The Fort Benning Incident
    Jun 18 2025
    For those who believe in extraterrestrials, the military is commonly seen as the first line of defence. For over a century, radio dramas, films, and literature have asked: what would really happen if our military forces engaged an advanced interstellar species? At least two men claim to not only know the answer, but to have participated in just such a conflict, only to be abducted, and their minds mysteriously wiped. Their tales raise an important question: just what happened during the Fort Benning Incident?
