    What happens when you talk about the paranormal long enough… and it starts responding?

    JJ from Southern Demonology links up with The Wandering Road for a raw, unsettling roundtable about the unspoken “rule” of the strange: when you look into the paranormal, it looks back. What begins as an idea becomes a pattern—technical glitches, oppressive heaviness, sudden health scares, night terrors, EVPs that don’t belong, and that lingering feeling that something is listening from just outside the edge of the conversation.

    Dean dives into eerie perception—faces in wood grain, patterns, and shadows—then connects it to darker frameworks like Gnosticism, archons, and “loosh farming”: the idea that something feeds on human fear and suffering. Chris shares the moment podcasting stopped being “just spooky fun,” including his first terrifying bout of sleep paralysis and the instinctive dread of don’t look up—you’ll see something you can’t unsee. JJ opens up about the message that started everything—“you have left your modalities unprotected”—and the cascade that followed: illness, hospital time, and the question every creator in this space eventually faces:

    Do you keep going when it feels like the topic has noticed you?

    We’re not here to convince you. We’re here to talk honestly—about the psychological, the spiritual, and the possibility that both can be true at the same time. And if you’re listening because you’ve experienced the unexplained yourself: you’re not alone.

    Featuring: Southern Demonology x The Wandering Road
    Topics: paranormal escalation, EVPs, sleep paralysis, night terrors, spiritual protection, Gnosticism/archons, and what it costs to speak.

    In this eerie episode of The Wandering Road, host Chris interviews Tommy Cullum, host of the Let’s Get Freaky podcast, about the lifelong paranormal experiences that began in his childhood home.

    Tommy recounts growing up surrounded by unexplainable activity, from waking in the night to see ghostly figures standing in his room, to encountering terrifying doppelgangers of his own mother and family members, entities that looked familiar but felt deeply wrong. What started as childhood fear followed him into adulthood, shaping his understanding of the paranormal and leaving lasting psychological scars.

    This conversation dives into a haunted upbringing, the long shadow of fear, and what it’s like to come face-to-face with something wearing the face of someone you love. Listener discretion advised.

    In this episode of The Wandering Road, Chris and Dean open the door to the strange, hilarious, and downright unsettling world of dreams. From the bizarre nighttime stories that make zero sense in the daylight… to the terrifying, shadow-drenched encounters that feel almost demonic, nothing is off the table.

    They swap some of their weirdest and funniest dream moments, explore nightmares that linger long after waking, and take a thoughtful turn into the dreams that feel like messages from loved ones who’ve passed on. Are these visitations? Symbols? Memories resurfacing? Or something deeper reaching out?

    Settle in as the hosts navigate the thin line between the subconscious and the supernatural, blending humor, curiosity, and a touch of eerie mystery in true Wandering Road fashion.

  • 144: Hauntings, Shadow Figures, and the Weight of Negativity: Jim’s Story

    In this haunting listener submission, Jim shares chilling encounters with experiences involving shadow figures, strange entities, and unexplained disturbances. But nothing compares to what unfolded after the heartbreaking loss of his beloved dog, Lacey, in 2024.

    Her passing left a deep emotional void, and in that vulnerable space, something negative crept in. Jim began sensing a heavy presence watching from the corner of his home, an oppressive force that drained his energy, twisted his emotions, and fed on his grief. What followed was a terrifying escalation: intrusive thoughts, waves of hopelessness, and a vivid nightmare that exploded into sleep paralysis, complete with crawling shadow “spiders” covering the ceiling of his bedroom.

    Drawing from past guidance and years of experience dealing with the paranormal, Jim attempted multiple cleansing methods, but the darkness only dug in deeper. Eventually, he reached out for help, leading to a remote clearing session that brought both clarity and a disturbing twist: none of the audio he recorded survived, and his ghost cam mysteriously captured silence where there should have been hours of sound.

    Though life returned to normal for nearly a year, a sudden explosive noise in an empty room loud enough to send his cat bolting outside suggests the quiet may not be permanent.

    Chris dives into Jim’s account, the emotional weight behind the haunting, and the eerie patterns that hint at a lifelong connection to the unexplained.

  • 142: Whispers in the Mind: Gods, Dreams, and the Shapes We Invent
    Nov 21 2025

    In this episode of The Wandering Road, the hosts explore the hazy border between perception and the paranormal. They unpack the strange ways the human brain creates meaning out of randomness—why we see faces in clouds, shadows, and reflections—and how pareidolia fuels everything from ghost sightings to modern miracles.

    The conversation shifts into the realm of faith and dreams, where religions across the world describe gods, angels, and spirits speaking through visions in the night. Are these encounters divine messages, subconscious storytelling, or something that defies explanation altogether?

  • 141:Fear at the Threshold: Zozo, Black-Eyed Children & The Mind’s Dark Invitations
    Nov 14 2025

    On this episode of The Wandering Road, Dean records his first full video installment as we dive into some of the most unsettling corners of modern folklore. We’re joined by JJ, host of the Southern Demonology podcast, to unpack the legend of Zozo, the chilling encounters tied to Black-Eyed Children, and how intense belief can sometimes cross into religious psychosis. We also explore how negative news and fear-focused thinking affect the mind and why fixating on darkness can feel like opening a door you didn’t mean to unlock.

  • 140: Faith Consumed: Jim Jones, Heaven’s Gate, and the Rapture Obsession
    Nov 7 2025

    On this episode of The Wandering Road, Chris is joined by JJ, host of Southern Demonology, for a deep exploration into the darker side of faith and the human need for meaning at the end of days. Together, they unpack the chilling stories of Jim Jones and Heaven’s Gate—two movements that promised salvation but led their followers to tragedy.

    The conversation then turns to the growing wave of modern “Rapture” predictions circulating today, and how these claims continue to exploit fear, uncertainty, and devotion in the digital age. Chris and JJ discuss the psychological pull of apocalyptic belief, the danger of unchecked religious authority, and the fine line between faith and fanaticism.
