Myths and Mysteries

We’ve always wanted to do a comedy podcast. Over the summer, we tossed the idea around and decided to record a pilot episode to see if we were up to the challenge. This “pilot” is the result—consider it a rough draft. Let us know what you think: if we made more episodes, would you listen?

Robert the doll, in his glass case at the Fort East Martello Museum. In 1904, four-year-old Robert Otto received a large doll that immediately became his constant companion. However, his family soon noticed that strange and disturbing things were happening regularly around the house—and according to their son, the doll was to blame. Can a doll really be haunted?Resources:Timesuck with Dan Cummins - “BONUS 1 - Robert the Cursed Doll”Lore - episode 15, “Unboxed”https://allthatsinteresting.com/robert-the-dollhttps://backpackerverse.com/robert-the-doll/Music:Road to the Dark Tower by CinematicWavesTempting Fate by AudionautixBoat Floating by Puddle of InfinitySummer Heat by Tom SpanderMyths and Mysteries theme is Circles in the Sky by CinematicWavesAll songs used under the Creative Commons Liccense.

Bell Island, off the coast of Newfoundland Bell Island is a small rocky piece of land off the coast of Newfoundland, with a population of about 3,000. Yet it’s known to conspiracy theorists around the globe because of a mysterious event that happened in 1978: a massive explosion in the sky that destroyed electrical devices and wires across the island…and it only get weirder from there. Exploding TVs, men in black, secret government weapons tests, weather-altering technology, mind control…even aliens? OK, probably not aliens.Resources:History – Mystery Booms“This Great Laboratory”: The U.S. Naval Research LaboratoryConcorde - WikipediaSupersonic History: What Routes Did Concorde Fly?Nighttime Podcast Bell Island Boom The Bell Island Boom -SkeptoidThe Mystery Bell Island Boom April 2, 1978 - YouTube -DocumentaryThe Bell Island Boom: What Were the Men in Black Investigating in 1978? - YouTubeTHE INVISIBLE MACHINE - ELECTROMAGNETIC WARFARE - YouTubeBell Island (Newfoundland and Labrador) - WikipediaBall lightning - Wikipedia Music:Blue Sizzle - Madness Paranoia by Kevin MacLeodAnguish by Kevin MacLeodThe Big Guns by Silent PartnerCreepin by MK2Myths and Mysteries theme is Circles in the Sky by CinematicWavesAll songs used under the Creative Commons License.

We're back after a long hiatus, with an episode about cursed Hollywood films; some that you've heard of, and some you may not know about. We discuss them and ask whether or not we believe in them, as well as whether or not we're the victims of a #PodCurse. Did you know there's a movie script that allegedly kills everyone who reads it?

In late 1991 and early 1992, newspaper reporter Linda Godfrey wrote about a rash of reported werewolf sightings along a small stretch of road in Elkhorn, Wisconsin. The story exploded nationwide, as tales of The Beast of Bray Road--a massive wolf that walked upright on its hind legs--captivated audiences across America. Linda soon discovered that sightings like these have occurred across the continent, and the globe, for a very long time. Encounters with Dogman--as the creature is often called--are terrifying, and although usually brief, they leave witnesses with a lifetime of questions. Join us as we discuss the Dogman phenomenon, and are joined by Linda Godfrey, who has written several books on the topic and is the foremost authority on Dogman, for an eye-opening interview.Resources:Witness stories told in the episode are from the books listed below:Real Wolfmen: True Encounters in Modern America by Linda GodfreyAmerican Monsters: A History of Monster Lore, Legends, and Sightings in America by Linda GodfreyMonsters Among Us: An Exploration of Otherworldly Bigfoots, Wolfmen, Portals, Phantoms, and Odd Phenomenon by Linda Godfreyhttps://lindagodfrey.com/https://www.timeout.com/chicago/things-to-do/werewolves-of-elkhornhttps://fringeparanormal.wordpress.com/2011/07/14/beast-of-bray-road-2/http://www.gods-and-monsters.com/werewolf-sightings.htmhttps://www.prairieghosts.com/brayrd.htmlParanormal Underground PodcastNot Alone PodcastExpanded Perspectives PodcastDogman Encounters RadioMusic:Haunted Places by Alex LisiDark Tension Rising Music by Royalty Free ZoneHeavy by Huma-HumaDead Man's Secrets by SilencydeMyths and Mysteries theme is Circles in the Sky by Cinematic Waves.

Illustration from Algernon Blackwood's classic horror tale "The Wendigo" in the June, 1944 edition of Famous Fantastic Mysteries. The Algonquian tribes of Canada believed that a creature called the Wendigo could convince a person to become a cannibal. Others believed that committing the act of cannibalism would turn a person into a Wendigo, doomed to a long lifetime of unquenchable hunger for human flesh. This episode tells two true stories of the Wendigo, and the deadly effects that these beliefs had on Native American communities.Resources:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wendigohttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Fiddlerhttp://murderpedia.org/male.R/r/runner-swift.htmhttp://www.irosf.com/q/zine/article/10278https://ipjournal.wordpress.com/2009/12/16/aboriginal-alcohol-addiction-in-ontario-canada-a-look-at-the-history-and-current-healing-methods-that-are-working-in-breaking-the-cycle-of-abuse/Music:Firesong by Kevin MacLeodCircles in the Sky by Cinematic WavesTempting Fate by AudionautixPachabelly by Huma-HumaDhaka by Kevin MacLeodEagle Rock by Wes HutchinsonAll used under the Creative Commons License.

Spring-heeled Jack surprises three victims with his signature leap. In late 1837, a figure appeared in the outskirts of London who was unlike anything ever witnessed before or since: Spring-heeled Jack, a specter who appeared out of nowhere to breathe blue flames at his terrified victims and tear at them with his metallic claws before bounding away with tremendous leaps. He was said to jump over carriages, walls, and even houses. He assaulted women, children, and men, including armed soldiers.

Today, we think of wolves as wild cousins of our pet dogs; we go to the zoo and see scrawny canines snoozing in the sun or jogging laps around their enclosures. But just a few hundred years ago, wolf attacks on humans were commonplace, and the mythical Big Bad Wolf has more roots in reality than you may realize. In this 3-in-1 episode, you'll hear about The Beast of Gevaudan, The Werewolf of Bedburg, and Jean Grenier, the teenage werewolf: three true stories in which monstrous wolves--and men who claimed to be wolves--slaughtered men, women, and children, and terrorized entire towns. CAUTION: this episode contains descriptions of graphic violence and gore.

George Reeves, star of TV's The Adventures of Superman from 1953-1958. At around 1:20 AM on June 16, 1959, a living room full of drunken party guests heard a gunshot ring out from the upstairs bedroom of actor George Reeves, known to millions of American children as Superman.
