2025 TOUR TICKETS ⁠⁠⁠⁠www.thisparanormallife.com⁠⁠ Canada is big. So big in-fact that it's easy to hide things there. Don't believe me? Maple syrup wasn't bottled and sold around the world until the 1950s — THAT'S how secret they can keep things. So as it turns out it's a great place to be a UFO with wide, vast, open plains and mountain ranges to fly around without being spotted. Except in 1975 I guess one of those UFOs screwed up and visited Manitoba, where it became a kind of local celebrity known as ‘Charlie Red Star'. What follows is documented as one of the world's most believable UFO sightings. But do Rory and Kit believe?… time to find out!

When we usually dive into a UFO case, it's a miracle if we have even 1 reliable witness.

Ever since the times of Ancient Greece, humanity has been captivated by Unicorns. Mythical creatures with healing magical properties.

A place where they hold an annual competition where you chase a wheel of cheese down a hill? It's borderline an alien planet when you think about it.

Human beings are beautiful, complex creatures. But despite our differences we can all agree on one thing - trains are awesome. They're fast, efficient and their roofs are home to some of the best fight scenes in action movies. That's why back in the 1960's, America had gone train-mad, building tunnels and tracks all across the country… but one of those tunnels may have gone a little too deep, uncovering a dark paranormal mystery that only got stranger the deeper they went.

China is home to innumerable paranormal entities, from ghosts and ancient spirits to cryptids and UFO encounters, but one entity stands out in notoriety far beyond the others — The Yeren. The Yeren has been sighted and discussed in texts for thousands of years, but many people in modern times believe it to be mostly legend. But if that's the case, why did the Chinese Communist Party spend millions of dollars in the 1970s trying to track down and then cover up the existence of the Yeren? This is the the rarely heard story of a cryptid finding itself at the centre of a political struggle — China's most wanted cryptid.Follow us on Twitter, Instagram, and YouTubeJoin our Secret Society Facebook CommunitySupport us on Patreon.com/ThisParanormalLife to get access to weekly bonus episodes!Buy Official TPL Merch! - thisparanormallife.com/storeIntro music by www.purple-planet.comEdited by Philip ShackladyResearch by Ewen Friers Hosted on Acast.

What if they discovered the ability to time travel, wouldn't they do everything they can to exploit it? And begs the question — if the military did develop time travel, how would we know?
