Pursuit of the Paranormal

Where ghosts, aliens, and high-strangeness collide…In this episode of Pursuit of the Paranormal, Greg and Ash dive head-first into the fascinating overlap between ghost hunting and UAP investigation — two worlds that seem miles apart, yet share the same patterns of contact, communication, and unexplained intelligence.We also discuss the history of EVP and Estes and we look at CE5 and seances. All have a very similar theme.We are also joined by Sarah from Twinvestigate UK who talks to us about Supernatural Sisterhood. This is a new group created to empower women in the Paranormal community.www.linktree.com/pursuitoftheparanormal

In this spellbinding episode of Pursuit of the Paranormal, we sit down with The Bell Witch Podcast's enchanting host Swailes, to explore modern witchcraft, real-world magic, and what it truly means to be a witch in the 21st century.

In the improbably convoluted corridors of cosmic bureaucracy, where advanced civilizations traverse light-years only to suffer from basic provisioning oversights, the 1961 Simonton Encounter stands as a beacon of underwhelming revelation. Joe Simonton, a steadfast Wisconsin plumber and chicken farmer, interrupted his mundane morning chores by a peculiar noise, only to confront a metallic saucer hovering insolently in his yard—not landing with dramatic flair, but lingering aloof like a guest who'd forgotten the invitation. Inside, three five-foot figures in dark uniforms, one bedecked with inexplicable red stripes, wordlessly bartered a two-handled jug for water, offering in return four hot, greasy pancakes—thin discs riddled with holes, prepared on a flameless device that mocked earthly kitchens.Simonton's taste test yielded cardboard blandness, sans salt, prompting a cascade of absurdity: he reported to authorities, surrendering the artifacts to Project Blue Book under Dr. J. Allen Hynek's gaze. Analysis revealed hydrogenated fat, starch, buckwheat, soy, and bran—terrestrial staples with an enigmatic wheat variant, leading to wild speculations of alien dietary woes or frugal foraging. Officially "unexplained," the case evaporated into ridicule, with Simonton regretting his candour amid community scorn, and the pancakes mysteriously "disappearing" from Air Force vaults, a testament to administrative incompetence over conspiracy.This episode of "That Unconventional Ufologist" delves deep into the encounter's satirical splendour: contrasting high-tech levitation with culinary catastrophe, drawing parallels to 1954's "angel hair" filaments (mere spider silk?) and 1965's Valensole soil sabotage. We explore ufology's mundane motifs—ephemeral evidence, behavioural whimsy—and philosophical fallout: if aliens crave unsalted carbs, what does that say about universal evolution? From Hynek's endorsement of Simonton's sincerity to the event's TV adaptation, we unpack how cosmic contact favours slapstick over spectacle, urging listeners to question if the stars hide profound truths or just poorly seasoned snacks.

The Unbelievable, Utterly Implausible, and Probably Non-Existent Case of Majestic 12In the convoluted corridors of power and human paranoia, where memos masquerade as cosmic revelations and weather balloons tumble into extraterrestrial intrigue, there lurks the saga of Majestic 12—that alleged 1947 cabal of generals, scientists, and one ironic debunker, hastily assembled by Truman to wrangle Roswell's wreckage and hush up humanoid visitors from the stars. Forged documents whisper of reverse-engineered wonders and shadowy silencing, all debunked by the FBI yet persisting like a stubborn cosmic joke. Join us as we unravel this bureaucratic absurdity, pondering if it's disinformation or plain old delusion.

In this explosive episode of Pursuit of the Paranormal, Greg and Ash dive into the newly declassified footage that's left the world questioning everything we know about UFOs.A U.S. Hellfire missile was reportedly fired at a glowing orb off the coast of Yemen — and it didn't even make a dent.Shown during a recent congressional hearing, the video appears to capture a direct hit that the object simply absorbs… or deflects.What the hell are we looking at?➡️ Advanced human tech?➡️ Extraterrestrial craft?➡️ A glitch in military optics?We break down the official footage, the government response, and the theories flying around the UFO community right now. Strap in — because this is one of the wildest revelations in modern UAP history.

Welcome, sentient beings of Earth. Do you ever feel as though you've misplaced your keys, your wallet, or perhaps the entire solution to all of your planetary problems? Then you've come to the right place. Tune in for a tale of a man, or at least a being who looked unnervingly like a man, who arrived on Earth with six fingers, no navel, and an IQ so impossibly high it was almost rude.Meet Valiant Thor, a Venusian diplomat who, in 1957, landed in Alexandria, Virginia, and promptly requested a meeting with the President of the United States. He came not with a death ray, but with a message of peace, offering solutions for everything from nuclear annihilation to environmental destruction. He proposed free energy, universal cures for diseases, and a world without war—a plan so sensible it was, of course, utterly rejected.In a shocking turn of events, humanity, or at least the powerful handful of it, found that Thor's vision of peace and progress was a direct threat to the very institutions that profited from conflict and scarcity. What followed was a deliberate campaign to bury his existence and label anyone who spoke of him as a crackpot. The world chose bureaucracy and self-interest over salvation, and decades later, we're all living with the unsettling consequences.Join us as we explore the secrets of a three-year diplomatic mission, the whispers of an ancient cosmic council, and the eerie, prescient warnings that Valiant Thor left behind. It's a story of what could have been, a glimpse into a better future we politely declined, and a reminder that sometimes, the most dangerous thing you can do is offer a completely logical solution.

Was this a tragic accident, government cover-up, or evidence of extraterrestrial contact?The Unconventional Ufologist, Steve Yarwood, investigates the Burning Man of BrazilSteve breaks it all down with his signature mix of sharp analysis, fearless curiosity, and unapologetic scepticism.

In the mid-1980s, a quiet Cheshire cottage became the centre of one of the UK's strangest paranormal cases. Ken Webster and his partner Debbie discovered mysterious files appearing on their borrowed BBC Micro computer — messages signed “L.W.” that claimed to come from a Tudor man in the 1540s. Over the next eighteen months, hundreds of communications appeared, including warnings like “You live in my house… with lights the devil makes,” and even bizarre intrusions from a group calling themselves “2109” who claimed the entire affair was part of a guided experiment. Was this a haunting, a hoax, or a conversation across time itself? In this episode of Pursuit of the Paranormal, Greg explores the full story of The Dodleston Messages — the messages, the investigations, and the theories that still divide believers and sceptics today.Keywords: Dodleston Messages, The Vertical Plane, Ken Webster, BBC Micro haunting, 2109, Tudor ghost, time slip, UK paranormal case, poltergeist, Thomas Hawarden.Pursuit Of The Paranormalwww.linktree.com/pursuitoftheparanormal
