It’s October 17, 1973 — a night that would change one man’s life forever, and put the tiny Alabama town of Falkville on the map of America’s strangest unexplained encounters. A frantic call about a UFO landing sent the local police chief into dark fields under a hungry moon. What he saw wasn’t a craft… but something else: a humanoid figure, metallic and glowing, standing in the gravel road like a reflection of light itself. One photograph, a high-speed chase across rough terrain, and a lifetime of ridicule followed.

Join Gary and GoldieAnn as they drive Within the Mists of Alabama to discover the Falkville Metal Man.

Tracing back to 19th-century eyewitnesses, accounts describe a massive, serpent-like creature seen in the waters of New England’s longest river. The most famous report occurred in 1886 near Middletown, Connecticut, when two men claimed their boat was struck by an enormous animal that raised a long neck and dark head above the surface. Additional sightings followed in later years along the river in Connecticut and Massachusetts. Though no physical evidence has ever been found, the reports fueled regional folklore, blending natural mystery, misidentification theories, and enduring river-borne intrigue.

Join us today, as we cruise Within the Mists of Connecticut to tell you about the Connecticut River Monster.

King’s Cross Station is a place millions of people pass through every year without a second thought. Trains arrive. Trains depart. Footsteps echo. Lives intersect with one another for only a moment before moving on. But beneath the hum of routine, something else lingers—something born on a single night in November of 1987, when a fire raced through the Underground and 31 lives were lost in minutes.

In the decades since, commuters and storytellers alike have whispered about a young woman seen in the depths of the station—long brown hair, dressed like any ordinary traveler, crying as if her heart is breaking. Some say she’s searching for someone. Others say she never even notices those who pass by.

Today, join Gary and GoldieAnn as they venture Within the Mist of London as we step carefully into the space where a documented tragedy ends and a ghostly legend begins—The Crying Girl of King’s Cross Station.

In the hollows of Kentucky's Bullitt County, a woman encountered a creature lurking at the edge of her driveway that defies the definition of folklore and reality. This towering, dog-headed apparition stood seven feet tall, its muscular frame cloaked in dark fur, eyes gleaming with an otherworldly yellow glow.

First documented in a chilling 2005 encounter, it evokes the primal terror of ancient werewolf tales, mixing canine ferocity with humanoid menace.

Is it a figment of forgotten folklore, a flesh-and-blood cryptid, or something far more sinister stalking the shadows?

Join Gary & GoldieAnn today Within the Mists of Kentucky to explore the legend of the Bullitt County Beast.

Above the endless green forests of the Congo Basin, the air is thick with the calls of unseen creatures. The river winds through the heart of darkness, hiding secrets that have eluded explorers for centuries.

But what if, in that primal wilderness, something creeps—something ancient, colossal, and hungry? A creature that defies what we know about the natural world, slithering through the undergrowth with scales as dark as the night and eyes that gleam with predatory intelligence.

Join Gary and GoldieAnn as they venture Within the Mists of the Congo to tell you about a cryptid that strikes out at helicopters, is large enough to swallow baby elephants whole, and still awaiting discovery.

This is the Congo Serpent.

Stepping into the French Quarter at midnight... the scent of jasmine mixes with something far more sinister. Behind those elegant wrought-iron balconies hides a nightmare that still screams after nearly 200 years.

Madame Delphine LaLaurie – the charming society hostess by day, architect of unimaginable horrors by night. In 1834, a fire ripped the mask away, revealing chained, mutilated souls in the attic, victims of tortures too grotesque to speak aloud. But the story doesn't end with the flames.

The screams still echo. Phantom footsteps pace empty halls. A young girl's ghostly cry drifts from the rooftop. Shadowy figures dart through rooms, chains clank in the darkness, and something watches from the bricked-up windows.

Join Gary & GoldieAnn as they travel Within the Mist of New Orleans to investigate the LaLaurie Mansion.

Dive into one of the most chilling alien abduction cases ever recorded on this episode of Within the Mist!

On a quiet October night in 1973, shipyard workers Charles Hickson and Calvin Parker were fishing along the Pascagoula River when a glowing oval craft appeared overhead. Paralyzed by an unseen force, they were floated aboard and examined by bizarre, wrinkled beings with claw-like hands—creatures forever dubbed the "Elephant Men."

Terrified, traumatized, and telling a story that never wavered, their encounter shook a small Mississippi town and still haunts ufology today.

Was it real contact... or something even stranger?

Listen now and decide for yourself.

Up where the northern lights dance like living flames, antlered shadows rise into the starlit sky…

Join Gary and GoldieAnn on a breathtaking journey into the frozen heart of Sápmi, where ancient Sámi legends whisper of the luminous Gaivaldu—a sacred white reindeer that soars through the aurora, pulling the reborn sun and guiding lost souls through endless polar night.

We’ll follow Old Nils through a blinding blizzard as a glowing spirit doe appears to lead him home, explore how these ethereal guardians of the solstice merged with Norse myths of Odin’s eight-legged sky-steed Sleipnir, and trace the magical thread all the way to Clement Clarke Moore’s 1823 poem that gave us Dasher, Dancer… and, later, a certain red-nosed misfit who lights the way.

From sacred rituals under shimmering guovssahasat to the jingling team we know today, discover the true paranormal origins of Santa’s flying reindeer.

Buckle up as this trip Within the Mist is a special solstice edition equal parts survival, wonder, and pure holiday enchantment.

Available now wherever you listen to Within the Mists. Don’t miss it… you might just hear hooves on your rooftop this Christmas Eve.
