Listeners of Paranormal Punchers that love the show mention:The Paranormal Punchers podcast has been a staple in my life since 2017. It became a part of my bedtime routine with my late wife, and for 7 years we would fall asleep to the chilling and entertaining stories told by the gang. I am incredibly grateful for the time spent listening to these fine folks, and I will always look back on those nights fondly. While it saddens me to think that the podcast is coming to an end with the launch of the new Punch Bowl podcast, it also fills me with hope for what the future holds. I wish all the hosts the best in their future endeavors and life adventures. Thank you for being the best paranormal bedtime podcast a young couple could ask for.
One of the best aspects of The Paranormal Punchers podcast is its ability to blend humor and horror seamlessly. The crew has a great chemistry, and their laughter is infectious - it always makes me laugh along with them. They have an interesting take on all things spooky, presenting their topics in fun and hilarious ways that keep listeners engaged. Additionally, I appreciate their approach of providing a concise summary of each topic, followed by their own thoughts and opinions, without dragging out the discussion unnecessarily.
While The Paranormal Punchers podcast is overall fantastic, one slight downside is that some episodes may not be as strong as others. As with any long-running show, there are bound to be episodes that don't resonate as much with certain listeners. However, this is a minor issue given that most episodes are enjoyable and well-researched. Another personal quirk I have is some pronunciation errors that occasionally occur when discussing certain words or phrases - but again, this is just a small point of contention.
In conclusion, The Paranormal Punchers podcast is an amazing listen for anyone interested in the paranormal. With its fun crew and intriguing topics presented in an entertaining manner, it never fails to captivate listeners. Whether you're looking for a podcast to pass the time during long shifts at work or simply want to indulge in some spooky storytelling, I highly recommend giving this podcast a try. The hosts' dedication and love for what they do shine through, making it a truly enjoyable experience. Keep up the great work, Punchers!

The Domsten Blobs, AKA the Jelly Bags, has become one of the most celebrated UFO alien sighting & attempted abduction both in and outside of Sweden. On December 20, 1958, 2 friends, 30-year old Stig Rydeberg, & 24-year old Hans Gustafsson were driving on an empty road after partying in town with their girlfriends when they came upon some heavy fog. They slowed to a crawl, but around 3 AM they decided to pull over in order to relieve their bladders & stretch their legs. They noticed an odd glow that was coming from the trees about 150 feet away and decided to investigate the glow. They discovered a wide, radiant discoid object that was supported on what looked like a tripod. Suddenly, they were surrounded by weird creatures that were moving in & out of their shape, like a wave. They were small, gray & around 4 feet tall & 1 ½ feet wide. They lacked extremities & were shaped like "loaves" but moved quickly. They also were levitating above the ground & both boys could smell ether & burnt sausages, which they found very unpleasant. These creatures surged onto & into them & their arms & legs became engulfed in the creature's bodies. With a “suction-like force” these blobs began to pull them toward the saucer & both of them lashed out at the entities trying to free themselves. Stig eventually managed to free himself & ran for their car where he began to slam his fist into the car horn in hopes someone would hear it. Immediately the creatures stopped their attack & ran for their saucer where both boys watched the UFO fly away quickly. They didn't say anything for three days out of fear but eventually couldn't keep it to themselves any longer. After an 11 hour long interview, the police concluded that it wasn't a hoax. What did these men encounter that night? Join us on episode 171 to hear more about this almost alien abduction by the Domsten Blobs!Sources: cryptidz.fandom.com/wiki/Domsten_Blobs, villains.fandom.com/wiki/Domsten_Blobs, breezewiki.com/aliens/wiki/Domsten_Blob, cryptopia.us/site/2018/05/terrible-flying-jelly-bags-sweden/
The latest episode of Paranormal Punchers: The Tipsy Cryptid is here, and it's going to take you on a wild ride!
Virginia City, NV rose as the center for silver mining with the discovery of the Comstock Lode in 1859 & became the nation's 1st industrial city. It was a bustling city that had cultural institutions like the opera & famous residents like Mark Twain. The Washoe Club opened its doors on B Street in the Reynolds Building on June 1, 1875. It was a luxurious space filled with giant plate glass windows & bronze statuettes & was nicknamed “The Millionaire's Club” because it was where the rich & newly rich would drink, play games, & visit with prostitutes. Less than 5 months after opening, a fire burned through downtown, destroying a good amount of Virginia City, including the Washoe Club. It didn't take long though for the club to find a new space – the trustee board for the club settled on a 3-story building on C street that even had a saloon on the bottom floor.The local mines began to diminish, Virginia City's population dwindled & the Washoe Club eventually closed in 1897. Because of the cities history with cave-ins, gunfights & greedy claim jumpers, it is no surprise that the Old Washoe Club is considered to be one of the most haunted locations in the West. Bar stools move on their own, the saloon doors will mysteriously swing open for ladies that are entering, & numerous shadow figures have been spotted on the upper floors. There are several spirits that are seen & felt in the Old Washoe Club & there is one spirit who has an affinity for alcohol. If you let a full shot of Bourbon linger too long at the bar, it will mysteriously be drained, & the staff will leave a full shot before leaving at night & it will be empty in the morning.Who or what still lingers at the Old Washoe Club?

On August 2, 1993, Lyudmila Korvina, who was an experienced hiking instructor, led 6 of her students on a hiking trip to the Khamar Daban mountain range in southern Siberia. The first 2 days of the hike, the group did really well, beating the time anticipated to get up the Retranslyator peak. However, when they were beginning their descent on August 4th, they were hit with a rainstorm which slowed them down. The following morning, the group set off down the mountain but after only a few minutes the first disaster struck. Sacha, who was at the back of the group, began to scream. When the group turned around, they saw that he was bleeding from his eyes & his ears as well as frothing at the mouth. It didn't take long before every single member but one succumbed to the same symptoms.Valentina Utochenko, the only surviving member, ran for her life not fully understanding what was happening. For 4 days, she followed power lines down the mountain, until she found a river & began to follow that. In August 10th, she was found by a group of kayakers. An autopsy report concluded that they had all died of hypothermia except for Lyudmila who had suffered a heart attack. They all had signs of bruised lungs, & protein deficiency due to malnutrition was listed as a contributing factor to their deaths. The deaths were ultimately ruled to be accidental.

The Conjuring House located at 1677 Round Top Rd, Burrillville, RI is one of the most active paranormal locations in the world, and since opening to the public in 2019, have had thousands of visitors who have witnessed the supernatural activity here. It was originally called the Old Arnold Estate and is now known as the Conjuring House because of the 2013 film, The Conjuring, which depicted the hauntings that the Perron family experienced while living there in the 1970s. Carolyn and Roger Perron, and their five daughters moved in to the home in December 1970 and the paranormal activity started immediately. It started small. A broom would be misplaced or a scraping sound would come from the kitchen when no one was in there.The girls soon began to see spirits around the house, and they claimed that for the most part, they were harmless. The family experienced rampant poltergeist activity, would smell rotting flesh & even would experience their beds rising off of the floor. They would regularly have physical injuries & it was common to hear voices around the house. The Perron family continued to live in the house for 10 years and experience continual paranormal encounters because of their financial instability but eventually decided to sell the house in 1980. The Conjuring House opened to the public in 2019 where visitors can tour the house, go on overnight investigations and can even experience camping or Ghamping, on the property.

The Old Spaghetti Factory in Vancouver, British Columbia is rumored to be the most haunted restaurant in the city. It opened its doors in March of 1970 in a building that has been around since the early 1900s, and is the 2nd oldest building in Vancouver. The Old Spaghetti Factory is known to have vintage décor, as well as an old trolley car, Number 53, that was placed inside around the time of its opening. There are four resident ghosts that are seen in the Old Spaghetti Factory, including the Tram Conductor, who is seen in full uniform inside the tram after hours seated at the same table, and a little boy ghost named Edward has been seen running around the restaurant.A visiting psychic confirmed that there were spirits here, and that the activity stems from the presence of historical artifacts that they are attached to in the building. Several psychics have also suggested that there is a vortex or portal that is found at the back of the restaurant that may attract these ghosts to stick around.

Three former military officials have testified before a House Oversight subcommittee on Wednesday, July 26, 2023 that they believe the government knows much more about UFOs than it is telling the public, but they also focused more on improving processes for reporting UAPs and transparency on the events for the American people. Former Navy fighter pilot Ryan Graves recounted an incident that happened off the coast of Virginia Beach in 2014 while flying an F-18 where they came upon & almost collided with an aircraft that was a "dark gray or black cube inside of a clear sphere". He also founded a group that supports aviators who have reported similar phenomenon & the objects that are reportedly being seen by military & commercial pilots that are performing maneuvers which are unexplainable due to our current understanding of our technology. Retired Cmdr. David Fravor talked about his encounter which was in 2004, where he & 3 others saw a white “Tac Tac”-shaped flying object emerge over the San Diego coast in California. He said, "There were no rotors, no rotor wash, or any visible flight control surfaces like wings." As they tried to get closer to the object, "it rapidly accelerated & disappeared right in front of our aircraft," leaving no detectable turbulence. Retired Major David Grusch spoke about a multi-decade UAP crash retrieval & reverse engineering program that he was exposed to during his time on a UAP task force. Grusch says that he has not personally spotted a UAP or any alien bodies, but his opinions are based on the accounts of over 40 witnesses that he interviewed while he was on the UAP task force. He also said he has interviewed individuals who have recovered "nonhuman biologics" from crashed UAPs.In a statement, Defense Department spokeswoman Sue Gough said investigators have not discovered “any verifiable information to substantiate claims that any programs regarding the possession or reverse-engineering of extraterrestrial materials have existed in the past or exist currently.” But Ryan Graves urged Congress and government officials to put aside stigma and address the security and safety issue that this topic represents. Join us on episode 165 to hear more about this Congressional hearing on UAPs and the three former military officials' experience with them!###Follow Us:https://www.paranormalpunchers.comhttps://twitter.com/ppunchershttps://instagram.com/paranormalpunchershttps://www.facebook.com/paranormalpunchersSupport the Show:https://www.teepublic.com/stores/paranormal-punchershttps://www.patreon.com/paranormalpunchersThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/1733620/advertisement
Abraham “Avi” Loeb, dubbed the alien hunter of Harvard, is an honored Israeli-American theoretical physicist who works on astrophysics and cosmology and is a professor at Harvard. In 2018, he suggested that alien space craft may be in the Solar System and used the interstellar object Oumuamua as an example, and in July 2021, Avi founded The Galileo Project for the Systematic Scientific Search for Evidence of Extraterrestrial Technological Artifacts.In January 2014, a 500-kilogram fireball was observed by the DOD where it was recorded as traveling faster than most meteors and ended up breaking up over the South Pacific Ocean near Papua New Guinea. Avi's team set out on a research boat called the Silver Star in late June 2023 looking for possible debris , & used a magnetic sled to excavate this debris from the ocean floor where the meteor hit. They found 50 tiny metallic balls called spherules that were made mostly of iron, and each is a fraction of a millimeter in size. He concluded that these metal pieces did not originate from Earth, and did not match any samples of the element found on Earth, leading him to speculate that this piece might be from outer space. On the second half we discussed some of our favorite action disaster movies involving either a meteor or aliens crashing on earth, including Deep Impact, Armageddon, Battleship and Slither.

Just before midnight on April 30, 2023, people across several states, some even as far as California, saw a bright fireball streak through the sky. Body-cam footage from a Las Vegas Metropolitan Police officer caught a glimpse of this, but a Las Vegas family witnessed something much more terrifying. A father and his 2 sons were working on a vehicle in their yard when they saw the sparkly object. As it came crashing down, they were hit by what they described as a shock wave. That is when they saw a tall creature in their backyard, which appeared to be 8-10 feet tall, had large eyes, was skinny with long legs & was greyish-green in color. They were terrified by what they saw and called 911.Approximately 39 minutes after the 1st call, another resident called 911 saying that there were 2 unknown entities in his backyard after he saw an object fall from the sky. The caller described what he was seeing, detailing that they had big, shiny neon eyes & mouths & were naked. They were “100% not human.” After investigating the homes, the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department decided to close the case due to no physical evidence and called it unfounded.On the second half, we reviewed the 1996 film Independence Day, directed byRoland Emmerich and starring an ensemble cast including Will Smith, Jeff Goldblum, Bill Pullman, Mary McDonnell & Vivica A. Fox. It is about groups of people who converge in the Nevada dessert in the aftermath of a worldwide attack by a powerful alien race. With the rest of the world, they launch a counterattack on July 4 in the United States.Join us on episode 163 to hear more about one of the best accounts of an alien encounter ever recorded in modern times!

The Tsuchinoko is a snake-like cryptid that is seen in the mountainous regions of Western Japan, & appears to look like your common snake, although with a central girth that is wider than its head & tail & appears to look like a hammer or mallet without a handle. It has large, plate-like scales that run down its earth-tone speckled body, & because of their color & shape, they are often said to resemble beer bottles.Despite having an awkward shape, the Tsuchinoko is very nimble. It is said that it can jump up to a meter in distance followed immediately by a 2nd jump while it is still in the air & by some estimates, can jump up to 5 meters. It is also reported to sometimes swallow its tail & roll like a wheel, which is similar to the hoop snake. According to legend, some Tsuchinoko are able to speak & are notorious liars, & are said to have a taste for alcohol or sake.Join us on episode 162 to hear more about this strange & elusive cryptic from Japan!Sources: cryptidz.fandom.com/wiki/Tsuchinoko, yokai.com/tsuchinoko/, snake-facts.weebly.com/tsuchinoko.html ###Follow Us:https://www.paranormalpunchers.comhttps://twitter.com/ppunchershttps://instagram.com/paranormalpunchershttps://www.facebook.com/paranormalpunchersSupport the Show:https://www.teepublic.com/stores/paranormal-punchershttps://www.patreon.com/paranormalpunchersThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/1733620/advertisement
The Stanley Hotel, located at 333 Wonderview Avenue Estes Park, CO served as the inspiration for Stephen King's 1977 novel The Shining and is considered to be one of the most haunted hotels in the U.S. It is a 140-room Colonial Revival hotel located about 5 miles from the Rocky Mountain National Park, and was built by Freelan Oscar Stanley, the inventor of the steam-powered car. It opened July 4, 1909 as a resort for upper class Easteners and a health resort for Tuberculosis sufferers. The Stanley Hotel has had a rather peaceful history, but in the years following the publication of The Shining, it has gained a reputation as a setting for paranormal activity. Freelance Stanley is said to wander the halls of the hotel and his wife, Flora has been seen and heard in the ballroom at the piano playing away. The fourth floor is said to be one of the most haunted areas in the hotel as well as room 217 where guests find that the room has been straightened up, their clothing folded or put away, or their suitcases organized. On the second half, we reviewed the 1980 film The Shining, directed by Stanley Kubrick and starring Jack Nicholson, Shelley Duvall, and Danny Lloyd. It is about a family that heads to an isolated hotel for the winter where a sinister presence influences the father into violence, while his psychic son sees horrific forebodings from both past and future.Join us on episode 161 to hear more about the grand and haunted Stanley Hotel!Sources: stanleyhotel.com, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Stanley_Hotel, visitestespark.com/things-to-do/attractions/stanley-hotel/, slashfilm.com/805503/the-haunted-history-behind-the-shinings-stanley-hotel/, lifefamilyfun.com/stanley-hotel-room-217/, eptrail.com/2014/03/10/stanley-hotel-ghost-story-supported-by-evidence-of-room-217-event/, uncovercolorado.com/stanley-hotel-haunted-history/###Follow Us:https://www.paranormalpunchers.comhttps://twitter.com/ppunchershttps://instagram.com/paranormalpunchershttps://www.facebook.com/paranormalpunchersSupport the Show:https://www.teepublic.com/stores/paranormal-punchershttps://www.patreon.com/paranormalpunchersThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/1733620/advertisement
Not sure of the exact beginnings, but stories of Norwegian Trolls can be found in the first written sources, the sagas, from the Middle Ages, but they were in oral traditions and people's imaginations long before that time. The term “troll” actually comes from the Proto-Germanic word “Trullan” which translates to mean fiend, demon, or giant. So some were described as giants, terrorizing entire villages, and others were considered to be small, evil tricksters. In general, most trolls were considered to be cruel, violent, unattractive creatures, with huge noses, big teeth, and grotesque features and were thought to be quite stupid and easily tricked.While, there is no single agreement as to what trolls may have looked like, most Norwegians agree that there are basically 2 types of trolls, the Trogre and the Troblins. The trolls of the mountains or forest, the Tragre, are generally depicted as large, dumb, and brute-ish and are said to use connections with nature to uproot trees to use as weapons, or to cause ecological disasters such as hurricanes and avalanches. The trolls of the caves, the Troblins, live completely underground & are generally depicted as smaller, with a large round stomach and short, stubby arms and legs. They tend to use their connections with nature to baffle or deceive humans.On the second half, we reviewed the 2022 film Troll, directed by Roar Uthaug. It is about a troll that is released after being trapped for a 1000 years and destroys everything in its path while it approaches the capital of Norway.Join us on episode 160 to hear more about the fabled Norwegian Trolls!Sources: visitnorway.com/things-to-do/art-culture/the-mythical-norwegian-trolls/, ifeinnorway.net/norwegian-trolls/, adventures.com/blog/norway-trolls/, routesnorth.com/language-and-culture/scandinavian-trolls-all-you-need-to-know/, scandification.com/norwegian-trolls-introduction-to-trolls-from-norway/ ###Follow Us:https://www.paranormalpunchers.comhttps://twitter.com/ppunchershttps://instagram.com/paranormalpunchershttps://www.facebook.com/paranormalpunchersSupport the Show:https://www.teepublic.com/stores/paranormal-punchershttps://www.patreon.com/paranormalpunchers
In Norwegian folklore, the werewolf or “varulv” is a type of shapeshifter or “hamløper”. Another type of shapeshifter is the “mannbjørn”, or man bear. It was once believed that certain people could transform into a wolf or a bear, but it was usually because this ability was due to a curse given to them by Trollmen. Norwegian werewolves don't have the same characteristics as werewolves of literature or movies, in that they don't need the moon to change, in order to change they put a wolfskin on, and silver isn't a deterrent.The Norse sagas though have had a big influence on werewolf folklore in Norway, especially with stories of people who can turn into something else. Of course, this is more of a magical power versus a curse placed on them. Vikings were very obsessed with wolves, as well as, people who could become them and even had them as symbols representing their society. Some Viking warriors would growl and howl in battle and even attack each other in their frenzy and would wear furs of wolves or bears.On the second half, we reviewed the 2022 film Viking Wolf, directed by Stig Svendson. It is about a teenager who witnesses a grotesque murder at a party in her new town, and after hiding a small wound she received during the attack, begins having strange visions and bizarre desires.Join us on episode 159 to hear more about the legendary Norwegian Werewolves!Sources: werewolves.com/a-norwegian-werewolf-legend/, lifeinnorway.net/werewolf-in-norway/,atlasobscura.com/articles/hidden-history-viking-wolf-warrior-werewolf, danarehn.com/2021/06/03/germanic-warrior-wolf-tribes-werewolves-shamanism-and-outlaws/, bavipower.com/blogs/bavipower-viking-blog/wolves-in-norse-mythology-powerful-and-cruel, ralphhaussler.weebly.com/wolf-mythology-norse.html,https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berserker###Follow Us:https://www.paranormalpunchers.comhttps://twitter.com/ppunchershttps://instagram.com/paranormalpunchershttps://www.facebook.com/paranormalpunchersSupport the Show:https://www.teepublic.com/stores/paranormal-punchershttps://www.patreon.com/paranormalpunchers
On a hot, humid night in August 1952, scoutmaster D.S. “Sonny” DesVergers witnessed some lights from his vehicle, and decided to investigate, leaving the three Boy Scouts he was transporting in the car. After hacking away at the brush for about 4 minutes, Sonny arrived at a clearing in a grove and immediately was overcome with an awful, nauseating smell, the feeling as though someone or something was watching him, and an intense heat coming from above him. That was when he realized that he was standing underneath a hovering object.He was terrified, and slowly started backing up when he heard a noise like a metal door opening. A bright red light came from the side of the object and slowly moved towards him completely surrounding him, before he passed out. When he woke up, he couldn't see because his eyes were burned, and when he eventually emerged from the brush he was incoherent, claiming that he had come into contact with a UFO that had attacked him. This incident is one of Project Blue Book's most interesting cases and is still unsolved, where some believe it may be the best hoax in UFO history. On the second half, we reviewed the 2014 movie Extraterrestrial, written, produced and edited by the Vicious Brothers. It is about a group of friends on a weekend trip to a cabin in the woods that find themselves terrorized by alien visitors.Join us on episode 158 to hear more about this incident between a scoutmaster and a UFO!Sources: history.com/news/ufo-encounter-florida-desvergers-scoutmaster-burned, nicap.org/bhoax.htm , https://www.saturdaynightuforia.com/html/articles/articlehtml/thescoutmasterstale.html###Follow Us:https://www.paranormalpunchers.comhttps://twitter.com/ppunchershttps://instagram.com/paranormalpunchershttps://www.facebook.com/paranormalpunchersSupport the Show:https://www.teepublic.com/stores/paranormal-punchershttps://www.patreon.com/paranormalpunchers
Back in 1978, there were multiple reports of a tall, hairy, 300-pound creature that was seen in a heavily wooded area about 2 miles from Minerva, OH over a period of a few weeks. One hot summer night in August of 1978, the Cayton family was sitting at the kitchen table when they heard a noise in the back yard & their dog started barking. They glanced out the window & that was when they saw something near the woods - a 6-foot-tall hairy creature! A few nights later they saw it again, but this time it was seen peering into their kitchen from the window! What they saw was a 300 hairy creature with black & brown matted hair on its head & body. It was seen several times by them as well as by other members of the community in the area, either near a strip mine, crossing a road, or even sitting on a chicken coop. It was even seen protecting two smaller creatures in one run in. Once the news began reporting the encounters, the Dayton family's home became an ground zero for Bigfoot enthusiasts & hunters. It got so bad, the family had to put up a fence to keep onlookers out. The family received a lot of backlash, & taunting from the rest of the town, & it was believed that they were just pulling a hoax for publicity. But the Caytons stuck to their story and never wavered. What was seen by the Dayton family in August of 1978?

Dudleytown, an abandoned settlement located in the Dark Entry Forest near Cornwall, CT, is a small village that most people avoid because it is thought to be a cursed location due to its dark history. Even with the name, it was never really an actual town. The name was given to this area of Cornwall because several members of the Dudley family lived there in the 1740s. Settlers began to trickle into the area & the community grew even larger after iron ore was discovered nearby, but it was repeatedly plagued by murder, suicide, madness/insanity, disappearances & failed business.Dudleytown has been abandoned since the early 1900s & cannot be visited because it is part of a land trust. Even though it is forbidden to enter, people have still made their way in to explore and experience the paranormal here. People have felt an overwhelming feeling of dread, terror or fear here or been overwhelmed with sadness. Mysterious lights & orbs have been seen & some have been touched, pushed & scratched by unseen hands. There have also been sightings of strange creatures that would come out of the woods at night.We also review the 2015 movie We Are Still Here starring Andrew Sensenig & Barbara Crampton. A grieving couple unknowingly becomes the prey of a family of vengeful spirits that resides in their new New England home, and they soon discover that the seemingly nearby peaceful town is hiding a terrifyingly dark secret.

Beaver Dunes Park in Oklahoma's panhandle is 300+ acres of dunes & sand where visitors can enjoy dune buggy riding, hiking trails, & several campgrounds. It is also known as Oklahoma's Bermuda Triangle as well as the Shaman's Portal due to its mysterious & tragic history. The mysterious & paranormal history of this area can be dated back to the 1500's when the Spanish conquistador Francisco Vazquez de Coronado was in the area searching for the elusive Lost City of Gold. Native Americans tried to warn Coronado of the danger of the dunes, which they called the “Shaman's Portal” but he, of course, ignored their warnings. While exploring the area, three of his men disappeared instantly into flashes of blinding green light, & ever since then, there have been accounts of other people who have simply disappeared.What could be causing these disappearances or flashes of light? It has been speculated that perhaps it is because it may be the location of a UFO crash from an unknown time & the dunes hide the wreckage. There are reports from visitors camping in the park where they have seen mysterious military-looking people digging at the dunes in the middle of the night. Strange anomalies in geographical samples in the area have included ionized soil and electromagnetic phenomenon that was scientifically unexplainable. Some of the theories out there conjecture that there is a possible cave system beneath the dunes that leads to a portal or doorway to another/alternate dimension.Join us on episode 154 as we discuss the mysterious Shaman's Portal in Oklahoma!Sources: travelok.com/articles/oklahomas-spooky-urban-legends, onlyinyourstate.com/oklahoma/sinister-beaver-dunes-park-ok/, kfor.com/news/great-state/green-lightning-and-mysterious-disappearances-this-oklahoma-park-comes-with-some-spooky-myths/, puzzleboxhorror.com/shamans-portal-of-beaver-dunes-park-oklahoma/, z94.com/oklahoma-ufos-and-the-shamans-portal/, jeanmariebauhaus.com/2018/04/10/restless-oklahoma-shamans-portal/, /theweeklyrambler.com/mysterious-oklahoma-a-giant-octopus-humanoid-being-and-a-spooky-shaman-portal/, mysteriousuniverse.org/2021/06/the-bizarre-mystery-of-the-beaver-county-park-oklahoma/ ###Follow Us:https://www.paranormalpunchers.comhttps://twitter.com/ppunchershttps://instagram.com/paranormalpunchershttps://www.facebook.com/paranormalpunchersSupport the Show:https://www.teepublic.com/stores/paranormal-punchershttps://www.patreon.com/paranormalpunchers
In this episode, we dive into the legend of the Yahoo Bigfoot, a creature said to inhabit the forests of West Virginia and Kentucky. This black-haired Bigfoot is said to be 8 feet tall, with some reports claiming that it can even reach 10 feet in height. It is believed to be highly intelligent and will often work jointly in small groups, but can also be very hostile, with some hunters reporting that small trees have been thrown at them. One of the most famous encounters with the Yahoo Bigfoot was that of the frontiersman Daniel Boone, where he killed a Yahoo while protecting his son. Jonathan Swift also wrote about a large creature which he called a Yahoo in his book Gulliver's Travels.

The Bonnacon, also known as the bonasus or bonacho, is a legendary bull creature from medieval times & even earlier with a unique & smelly defense mechanism, that has earned it as being the laughing stock of medieval bestiary. It has inward-curving horns, a mane that looks similar to a horse's, and reddish-brown or black fur. Because its horns are inward facing & basically useless for self-defense from hunters, the Bonnacon would expel large amounts of burning or corrosive poop from its anus at its pursuers, burning them & thereby ensuring its escape.The first description of the Bonnacon comes from Pliny the Elder's Natural History published in AD 77, & because of Natural History's popularity, the Bonnacon was included in a multitude of medieval bestiaries. There is no hard evidence of the existence of the Bonnacon, but it may actually be a creature based on a real animal. The name bonnacon is derived from the Greek word “bonasos” which means bison, & it is suggested that maybe it was a species of bison.Join us on episode 149 to hear more about this legendary smelly bull creature!Sources: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonnacon, blogs.getty.edu/iris/the-bonnacon-laughing-stock-of-the-medieval-bestiary/, ancient-origins.net/myths-legends-europe/do-not-attack-bonnacon-medieval-beast-toxic-defense-009732, folklore-society.com/resources/tarasque/, youtube.com/watch?v=xp_as8P1nBM###Follow Us:https://www.paranormalpunchers.comhttps://twitter.com/ppunchershttps://instagram.com/paranormalpunchershttps://www.facebook.com/paranormalpunchersSupport the Show:https://www.teepublic.com/stores/paranormal-punchershttps://www.patreon.com/paranormalpunchers

The Deer Man is a half-human/half-deer creature that has been reported all over the country & even in Canada. It has been described differently sometimes depending on the location, but generally it has the antlered head of a deer, a human's torso, its legs are either those of a man or a deer, and is said to be well muscled and surprisingly fast for its size. Some accounts say it reeks like a rotting corpse, it makes an ear-piercing scream, and that it has the power to transform itself from just a regular deer into a half-deer/half-human creature Is it an undiscovered species or a misidentified deer? Or could it be an interdimensional creature that can pass from one reality to another or possibly a wendigo? The most popular theory though is that it could be a skinwalker. Skinwalkers are supposed to be fast, can shape-shift and able to mesmerize people.

Peggy the Doll is a 3-foot-tall doll that has a blonde hair bob with glassy blue eyes and is considered to be the most haunted and dangerous doll in the world. After being purchased at a car boot sale, the owner began having nightmares and felt as though she was being haunted by the doll. She contacted Jayne Harris, a paranormal and haunted doll investigator, and eventually sent the doll to her. Jayne and her team of psychics began working with the doll, running experiments or having paranormal sessions with it and began posting photos and videos of the doll online. That is when she began receiving comments from people who had seen the video and immediately after viewing it began to have chest pain, nausea and/or crippling headaches. Jayne has come to the conclusion that the doll is possessed by the spirit of a woman who was born in 1946, died of a chest-related condition like asthma, and may have ties to the Holocaust. Peggy the Doll is now in Zak Bagans' possession where he has her in his Haunted Museum in her own room, in a dollhouse with a glass enclosure and cameras on her 24/7. There is also a spirit box sitting near her where she sometimes communicates with those who dare to come see her. According to Zak, he has met many dolls but none have ever affected him as badly as Peggy the Doll.Join us on episode 146 to hear more about this haunted doll!

The Houston Batman, also known as the Houston Horror, was a very tall man-like creature with bat wings that was seen for the first time in the yard of Hilda Walker in Houston, TX. On a very hot, peaceful night, Hilda Walker, Judy Meyer, & Howard Phillips, all neighbors, were sitting on Hilda's front porch around 2:30 am on June 18, 1953, when Hilda noticed a large shadow move across her lawn. The shadow then jumped up into a pecan tree & all three could see that the shadow appeared to be a very tall man-like figure standing around 6 ½ feet tall with bat-like wings on its back, wearing a black, tight-fitting outfit, & surrounded by a glowing yellow haze. The figure lingered for about 30 seconds before the light began to fade out & the figure vanished.Even though this encounter only lasted a few seconds, there have been other reports of a flying batman or birdman in the area throughout the decades. There have been several theories as to what this mysterious creature could be, including an undiscovered species, an alien, or even an interdimensional time traveler, & Ken Gerhard, a cryptozoologist from TX, believes that the existence of these big birds is possible & if they do exist, their home base has to be somewhere remote & largely unexplored.Join us on episode 145 to hear more about the Houston Batman!

The Devil's Rocking Chair appears to be a seemingly normal looking rocking chair that belonged to the Glatzel family, but it has been known to cause many paranormal and unexplained things to happen to those unfortunate to sit in it or even be in its vicinity. In the summer of 1980, eleven-year-old David Glatzel began to have nightmares of a ghostly figure that looked like a man with black eyes, pointed ears, horns and hooves, and he had a thin gaunt face with spiky teeth. The nightmares progressed to waking up with bruises and scratches and eventually speaking in an unknown language. The family had no choice but to bring in priests and Ed and Lorraine Warren to perform several exorcisms on the boy, many while he was sitting in the rocking chair, to free him from the Devil's grasp. The family held onto the chair for many years after these strange events even though anyone who sat in the chair would suffer such excruciating back or sciatica problems that it would send them to hospital, some requiring surgery. In April 2019, Zak Bagans purchased the chair from David's brother and placed it in his Haunted Museum. People soon began breaking into uncontrollable sobbing in view of the chair and one person collapsed near the chair on the stairs. It is believed that the chair is also responsible for doors closing on their own and light turning on and off.

The Mill Race Monster is a bipedal, 6-7 foot tall creature seen in the 83-acre Mill Race Park in Columbus, Indiana in 1974 which launched the largest monster hunt in US history. On November 1, 1974, four young women spotted the monster in the park and fled without any interaction with it, but several hours later, two girls were attacked while in their car. The one witness, Tyra Cataline, described it as having a greenish tinge to it with moss and slime on its face, and with large fangs. It attacked their car, biting and beating on the windshield trying to get into it before they were able to speed off. The police laughed off the incident until they inspected their car and found it with having damage as well as the horrific stench coming from it. In the next few days, a few more encounters with the Mill Race Monster occurred, with one of the witnesses suggesting that because there had been UFOs and strange lights seen over the area, that the Mill Race Monster might have been of alien origin. It was at this point, that amateur monster hunters began to pour into the area, some carrying baseball bats and shotguns. It was so bad that one night, there was reportedly over 100 cars in the park. Sightings of this green hairy creature only transpired for a few days in early November1974 and hasn't been seen since. What was the Mill Race Monster and why did he only hang around for a few days?

Lake Ontario is one of the 5 Great Lakes of North America and is the 13th largest lake in the world. Lake Ontario is known for many things, including the Niagara Falls, but it is also known to have paranormal mysteries, its own Vortex/Triangle, as well as a supposed underwater alien base! A small stretch of water off of Prince Edward County on the Eastern part of Lake Ontario is called the Marysburgh Vortex or the Graveyard of Lake Ontario. There have been a multitude of shipwrecks, airplane mishaps, strange sightings, and mysterious disappearances which leads this area to be called a vortex. The Marysburgh Vortex is the most dangerous part of the lake where compasses have been known to malfunction and rapid weather changes can occur here. Although, the consensus is that there is a large iron deposit in the middle of the lakebed which causes the malfunctions, there are some that believe that the magnetic anomaly can be attributed to a major crossing of ley lines. There is also a ton of UFO sightings over the lake with people seeing unidentifiable objects or lights diving into & out of the lake. Some theorize that there might be an alien base located beneath the lake, and that there are several entrances located throughout. Are they interested in the area because of the ley lines, or is it something else that's attracting them? Join us on episode 142 to hear more about this mysterious Great Lake!

The Tuttle Bottoms Monster inhabits a swampy area north of Harrisburg, Illinois in the Saline River watershed and has been haunting this area for generations. It is a gigantic ape-like, hairy creature with glowing eyes and a long snout similar to an anteater. The first report of the Tuttle Bottoms Monster occurred on August 6, 1963 when the Saline County Sheriff encountered multiple youths with guns who were searching for it in the Bottoms. In his 28 years of service, the sheriff received over 50 calls from people claiming to see this creature.There are some that believe that the Tuttle Bottoms Monster is actually an animal that was created by scientists and then intentionally released by the government into the area. Others believe that it could be a surviving relative of a prehistoric anteater species. Or could it be an undiscovered species?What is this mysterious creature?

The name Aswang is applied to various shape-shifting evil creatures in the Filipino mythologies and culture. It is one of the most feared creatures in the Philippines, and depending on what region you are in, it could be a vampire, or a ghoul, or a witch, or a werebeast. Because the definitions and stories of the Aswang vary so much, there is no specific set of characteristics. But, there is one common concern for the Aswang: they are shape-shifters. They are the most powerful during the night, and although they are usually described to be secluded, they have been known to adapt in communities through marriage. They are known to turn into a human with long dark hair during the day, and can be fast and silent, unless they want to trick you into thinking they are farther away and will then be loud.

The Point Lookout Lighthouse, located in Scotland, MD, sits at the entrance of the Potomac River at the southernmost tip of the Chesapeake Bay and is said to be the most haunted lighthouse in the United States. On May 3, 1825, it was decided that a light was needed at the entrance to the Potomac River in order to warn ships about the shoals and to prevent shipwrecks from continuing to happen at the entrance to the river. After five years of delays, it was first lit on September 20, 1830, and ran without too many issues through the years. Things changed for a time when the Civil War began. A hospital was built in the area to care for wounded Union soldiers, and when Camp Hoffman was built, it held as many as 20,000 prisoners at a time, which was double its occupancy limit, and at least 3,000 to 8000 died there due to limited rations and poor conditions.Because of the death permeating the ground in the area due to the Civil War and the several shipwrecks that occurred near the lighthouse, the lighthouse is incredibly haunted. People have heard footsteps in the hall and stairway, heard doors slamming shut, and heard voices and even snoring coming from nowhere. Several paranormal investigations have occurred here, where they were able to catch numerous EVPs, felt cold spots, and witnessed full-body apparitions. It has been discovered that there are 24 distinct voices in the lighthouse. Join us on episode 139 to hear more about Point Lookout Lighthouse, the most haunted lighthouse in America!

Spring-Heeled Jack is a boogeyman entity in English folklore during the Victorian Era, where his name caused fear among those who lived in London during that time. Reports of this entity began in 1837 and most of his attacks were against women, where he would ring the doorbell and then cause severe damage to their clothing with sharp claws, or just simply ambush people while they are out walking. The descriptions of him were so varied of what he looked like that sometimes he was described as having the appearance of a ghost, the Devil or even a bear, but many of the descriptions of him claimed he had clawed hands, fiery red eyes, wore a helmet, cape, and a tight-fitting white outfit. Those in authority believed that this entity was just a man or group of wealthy men that were dressing up and scaring people on a bet, and several men were brought in for questioning for the different attacks. But there were many that believed that because of his terrifying and frightful appearance, that he was more paranormal, and could be the Devil or a demon, a shape-shifting figure, a spectral phantom, or even an alien.

The Beast of Gévaudan is the name associated with a man-eating animal or animals that terrorized the former province of Gévaudan in south-central France between 1764 and 1767. The Beast ravaged the rural region, where as many as 300 men, women, & children were attacked. While many believed it to be a wolf, there are some that suggest that the Beast may have been something else. There were a few occasions where the people of Gévaudan were able to shoot the Beast, with the belief that they had killed it, but it never stayed down for long. Historians, scientists, and conspiracy theorists have all proposed different theories about what the Beast was, including an extinct prehistoric creature like the Dire Wolf, a striped hyena, and an armored war dog. The most popular theory, and what the people of Gévaudan believed, was that the Beast was a werewolf or pack of werewolves. Some claimed that the Beast could walk on its hind feet, had amazing leaping ability and its hide could repel bullets. When the Beast was finally killed, the rumor was that it had been shot with a silver bullet. What ravaged that quaint area? Was it a pack of wolves, or something more supernatural?

We had a blast doing a live show at Fan Expo Philadelphia! We talked about Nic Cage and that time he bought a serial killer's home. He purchased the LaLaurie mansion located at 1138 Royal St in New Orleans in 2007 for $3.4 million with the plans to use the house as the perfect inspiration to write the “great American horror novel”. He only stayed one night. He could hear all sorts of ghostly noises throughout the night, & these sounds & disturbances scared him so much, that he rented a place across the street. In Nic Cage's words: “I didn't get too far with the novel”Sources: wanderingcrystal.com, koimoi.com, notebookofghosts.com, nolaghosts.com, allthatsinteresting.com, ghostcitytours.com, vanityfair.com, atlasobscura.com, nytimes.com, independent.co.uk###Follow Us:https://www.paranormalpunchers.comhttps://twitter.com/ppunchershttps://instagram.com/paranormalpunchershttps://www.facebook.com/paranormalpunchersSupport the Show:https://www.teepublic.com/stores/paranormal-punchershttps://www.patreon.com/paranormalpunchers
The Oklahoma Octopus is a cryptid that inhabits a few of the freshwater man-made lakes in Oklahoma, including Lake Thunderbird & Lake Tenkiller, where it attacks and kills unsuspecting swimmers. It is a cephalopod, about the size of a horse, with long tentacles and leathery, reddish-brown skin. There have been numerous reported sightings, which typically involve fairly-large tentacles just at the surface of the lake, but there is no physical evidence that the Oklahoma Octopus exists. Many point to the high mortality rate and dramatic rise in unexplained drownings that occur in these lakes as the evidence of the octopus's existence. Even though the drownings are most likely the result of people getting drunk and not paying attention while swimming, there are some that believe that the Oklahoma Octopus may have extraterrestrial origins. There are scientists that theorize that because the genome of an octopus has a staggering level of complexity, compared to a human being, that they most likely originated somewhere other than Earth. What is the Oklahoma Octopus? Is it Cthulhu's cousin, an alien trolling the various Oklahoma lakes, or just a convenient excuse?

The Banshee Labyrinth, located at 29-35 Niddry Street in Edinburgh, Scotland, is considered to be Scotland's most haunted pub. The pub is made up of seven rooms and about half of the pub is built into Edinburgh's underground vaults. When operational, the vaults were known for homeless, thieves, and the unsavory and it was here, that many people met a very gruesome end. When the pub was renovating one of the vaults, a worker saw a woman with long red hair, covering her face as she sobbed. She then shrieked a horrible howl which caused the worker to pass out in terror. When he came to, she was gone, and when he went home that night, he received a phone call that a family member had died. He felt that he had encountered a banshee, who in Irish mythology says her scream heralds the death of a loved one.Many have placed their drink down and watched it slide straight off the table or smash against a wall as if thrown by an unseen force. Creepy, disembodied sounds can be heard in the corridors in the middle of the night, and some have heard singing down in the tunnels. There are several entities that are seen and felt in different parts of the pub, and at least one that is seen in other pubs nearby. Is whoever met their untimely end in the vaults trapped here to haunt the area?

Corney was a poltergeist that haunted the A- family in Dublin, Ireland during the mid-19thcentury. The address of the house, as well as, the families name is a mystery even though we have the story of Corney's antics. He let his presence be known to the family and their staff, but only showed his spectral body to two people. The first who died from fright, and the 2nd, a 7-year old boy where he described him as a naked man, with a curl on his forehead, and pale skin. His misbehavior with the servants of the house were especially awful and Mrs. A- had a hard time keeping the servants in the house. Who was Corney? It is believed that he is the spirit of Cornelius, known as Corney, who was a faithful elderly servant living in that house. His death in the house apparently tied him to the building. A year after his death, the family moved away and the A- family moved in and that is when the poltergeist behavior of Corney began. Was Corney upset that a new family moved in? Or was he just a jokester who liked playing pranks on the living? Join us on episode 133 to hear more! Sources: yourirish.com/folklore/corney-dublin-poltergeist, “True Irish Ghost Stories” by John D.

Within East Yorkshire, England is a stretch of rolling hills and beautiful valleys that has the highest concentrations of legends, myths, monsters and the supernatural in the world called the Wold Newton Triangle. The area is full of stories of ghosts, fairies, witches, werewolves, legends of dragons and vampires as well as stories of magic and rituals which makes many question whether the Wold Newton Triangle is a thin spot between dimensions.There are several theories as to why the area has so much weirdness. Rudson, which isn't quite in the middle, but just askew from it, is the end point for not one, but five ley lines. Many believe ley lines are steeped with power and electromagnetic energy and connect important and sacred sites throughout the world. Another theory is the meteorite strike that occurred in 1795 that impacted close to the junction of these five ley lines. Was it a catalyst for the paranormal?

The Falcon Lake Incident occurred on May 20, 1967 and is considered one of Canada's best documented UFO cases. Stefan Michalak, an amateur geologist, was prospecting near Falcon Lake when he was startled by some nearby geese that suddenly flew up. It was at that point he saw two cigar-shaped objects in the sky. One of them landed on a flat rock, while the other stayed in the air for a few minutes before flying off. He approached it, could feel warm air, smell Sulphur, as well as hear muffled voices inside. When he called out to see whoever was inside needed help, the voices immediately stopped. The ship began to turn counter-clockwise, and he was struck in the chest by a blast of air or gas that pushed him back and set his shirt and hat on fire. He ripped off his burning clothes while the ship lifted up and flew away. Disoriented and nauseous, he stumbled through the forest until he eventually made it back to his motel. He was treated at a hospital for burns to his chest and stomach that later turned into raised sores in a grid-like pattern. And for weeks afterwards, he suffered from diarrhea, headaches, blackouts and weight loss. After it was investigated by several different government agencies, the official conclusion was that it was unexplained, and until the day that he died in 1999, Stefan never backed down or retracted his story.Did Stefan have an encounter with an alien ship or was it just a secret military vehicle?

Just outside El Paso, Texas, a Bigfoot-like creature with red eyes has been prowling the area since the 1970's. He was first seen in 1975 by three teenagers near the Horizon City golf course, and when the Sheriff's Department investigated, only a footprint was found. They believed that the print had been manually dug, so felt that the whole encounter was a hoax or they had misidentified a long-haired hermit living in the mountains nearby. In 2001 and 2002, he was seen again by the same witness where she described it as 7 - 8 feet tall, with broad shoulders, an elongated head and a mouth that resembled a bull dog. It also had short faded brownish-maroon hair with glowing red eyes and small, pointy ears. Most recently, in July 2021, a screaming howl was heard in McKelligon Canyon for several minutes by multiple people. It was something very different, very loud, almost like a thundering roar. It was quiet before the howls came back: one long one, followed by a few short ones. Then it was quiet again. Many believe that the Horizon City Monster had once again made his presence known.

The RMS Queen Mary was a large luxury British ocean liner that operated from 1936 to 1967, when she was retired and is now docked at Long Beach, California. Because of her size and speed, she served as a troop transport ship during World War II where she could transport an entire army division in one voyage. In 1942, she tragically sliced through an escort warship during an Atlantic crossing killing over 330 men, and was also responsible for prisoner of war transports. With the amount of trans-Atlantic crossings as this ship has done, and apparently the 49 recorded deaths here, including a crewman who was crushed by a watertight door, there may be as many as 150 spirits still lingering here.This ship can be a drain on cell phone or camera batteries and people often feel dizzy, nauseous or have hot/cold flashes on board. There are drastic temp changes, slamming of doors and people have heard screaming or crying in many of the rooms. In stateroom B340, many guests have been woken from sleep by their bed sheets being ripped off the bed or by someone knocking on the door but no one is there. Many apparitions have been seen throughout the ship as well as one little girl spirit named Jackie who is often seen and heard in the pool area.
