This week at Creep Cottage, the skies are lighting up with more red flags than a Mormon singles ward. We’re talking UFOs, missing memories, and cosmic confusion.

A security guard in Italy gets abducted by lizard men and lives to tell the tale—multiple times.

A U.S. Army soldier blacks out in the desert and wakes up with zero answers and a whole lot of questions.

A tiny Polish village becomes the site of the weirdest intergalactic drop-off since E.T. phoned home.

And in Michigan, hundreds of people—including police officers—watch a dazzling light show in the sky… and no, it wasn’t a laser tag party gone wrong.

We’re diving headfirst into the weirdest alien encounters you’ve probably never heard of. Are these real? Are we high? Is this a psyop? Who knows! But we brought receipts.

Buckle up, abductees—this one’s gonna probe deep.

Subject #1137 has entered the maze… and there’s no going back. In this twisted obstacle course of flashing lights and existential dread, they’re forced to compete for the ultimate prize: listening to this week’s episode of Creep Cottage in peace.

But they’re not alone in the Sanctum tonight. That’s right—fan-favorite cryptid enthusiast and alleged bathwater sommelier Dick Tiddle (Roman Chicas) returns to the show, and he’s bringing chaos with him. Together, we spiral into four of the most disturbing and debated alien encounters of all time:

The Rendlesham Forest Incident – Did the UK military stumble upon a UFO in 1980, or just forget what a lighthouse is?

Betty and Barney Hill – America’s first televised nightmare couple goes toe-to-toe with cosmic freaks on a late-night drive.

The Westall UFO Sighting – Over 200 Australian schoolkids and teachers see a flying saucer land in 1966. But sure, let’s gaslight the children.

Travis Walton – The lumberjack that got yoinked into space in broad daylight, only to return with stories… and maybe a new skincare routine?

As always, you’ll laugh, you’ll question reality, and you’ll wonder how much weed we didn’t smoke before pressing record. So grab your flashlight, kiss your cat goodbye, and enter the maze… but don’t get too comfy. Dick Tiddle is lurking in the hedges.

Subject #1137 escaped… briefly. But before they could find the exit, they got tangled in a children’s field trip through the galaxy’s most ethically questionable attraction: The Human Zoo. Lucky them—today’s enrichment activity? A live recording of Creep Cottage. (Sorry, no refunds.)

This week, Oliver and Camilla serve up some of the freakiest alien cases to date—starting with the elusive Calvine UFO photo, dubbed “the best evidence ever caught on film” (and promptly buried for 30 years). Then we’re heading to 1951 North Korea, where soldiers claimed to see a flying saucer just before falling sick—real mass encounter or Cold War chaos? And finally, we dive into the Winston Churchill cover-up, where even Winston’s own grandson believes we might not have been told the whole truth.

Plus: rapid-fire listener tales including a glowing orb that defied physics, a high-speed alien flyby, and a sibling dream so vivid it broke reality. Also, we ask the hard questions—like why the hell does an alien zoo even need a gift shop?

Just don’t stick your antennae in the enclosure...
