EPISODE 742: (with Christine Schiefer of "And That's Why We Drink) This Halloween, something spooky this way swaps. In this very special Paraween Host Snatchers edition of The Box of Oddities, Kat is joined by the delightfully haunted Christine Schiefer of And That's Why We Drink—because JG has mysteriously vanished (probably abducted by science or a mothman, TBD). Together, Kat and Christine unpack the glowing enigma of the Brown Mountain Lights—the unexplained orbs that have haunted Appalachia for over a century. Are they ghosts? Aliens? Passive-aggressive lovers stuck in a centuries-long spat? Or just bioluminescent squirrels playing god? We explore all the theories—ball lightning, swamp gas, folklore, fungal rave dust—and somehow make room for 1913 dental ads and an impromptu John Denver roast. Whether you're a fan of high strangeness, ghost lore, or just want to hear Christine and Kat lose it over the phrase “globular form,” this crossover episode is a Halloween-season must-listen.

What happens when we follow one plant deeply enough to uncover its stories, traditions, and medicines?In this episode, I sit down with herbalist, artist, and folk magic researcher Rebecca Beyer to talk about her lifelong devotion to spicebush (Lindera benzoin)—a plant rooted in Appalachian folk tradition and brimming with story.Rebecca shares how a difficult illness first led her to herbal medicine, and how she eventually came to see spicebush as her patron plant. We explore its many gifts—from its role in spring tonics and colonial kitchens to its modern uses as a warming, aromatic ally. Rebecca also invites us into her creative world, where her herbal practice meets her art, tattooing, and deep love for regional traditions.Fresh spicebush berries are notoriously difficult to dry, so Rebecca likes to find other creative ways to preserve their peppery, citrus-spiced flavor. She's shared her recipe for Spicebush Honey Bounce—spicebush berries infused in honey, plus a little something extra! You can find a beautifully-illustrated copy of Rebecca's recipe here.By the end of this episode, you'll know:► Why spicebush holds such a beloved place in Appalachian folk traditions, bridging the worlds of food, medicine, and seasonal ritual► Four medicinal benefits of spicebush► Rebecca's trick for drying the fruit so they keep their flavor for years and don't mold—quite a challenge for these juicy berries!► Six ways to work with spicebush for food and medicine, from the bark to twigs, leaves to fruit► Why embracing many teachers—and a community of learning—is key to becoming a better herbalist► and so much more…For those of you who don't know her, Rebecca Beyer is an Appalachian folk herbalist and magical practitioner, tattooer, author, and crafts woman. She studies and teaches foraging, regional folk medicine and handicrafts at her home in the mountains of Western North Carolina through her school, Blood and Spicebush School of Old Craft, and tattoos at her studio, Pars Fortuna.This conversation is full of history, heart, and plant wisdom.

Welcome to Monsters on the Edge, a show exploring creatures at the edge of our reality in forests, cities, skies, and waters. We examine these creatures and talk to the researchers studying them.Joining us on this week's show:Raised in the rugged Appalachian region of East Tennessee, Harley Owens began as a typical hard working blue collar worker and avid outdoorsman —hunting, fishing, and exploring forested woodlands. But on September 23, 2020, a startling encounter at a Sawmill near Pound, Virginia shook his worldview: he discovered massive footprints photographed an unknown large hair covered creature and heard eerie, inhuman vocalizations. This experience, captured in a single shaky photo before his phone died, spurred a three year hiatus from the woods—until Thanksgiving 2023, when he mustered the courage to return and overcome what he thought was a fear of Bigfoot. Since reclaiming his path, Harley has fully embraced field research head on. He's captured additional evidence—footprints, photos, and audio—documenting multiple encounters with Bigfoot and even Dogman in the Smoky Mountains. His work is rooted in authenticity and transparency, as he shares firsthand findings without sensationalism. Harley founded Bigfoot Reports & Data, a community-driven group on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube, dedicated to gathering and analyzing cryptid sightings and evidence from Appalachia. He's a sought-after guest on cryptid-focused podcasts such as Strangeology and The Confessionals, as well as on YouTube series like Beyond BMR and Bigfoot Society, where he discusses his encounters, field techniques, and his journey from skepticism to active investigation.Bigfoot Reports & Data Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/groups/651979297049544Bigfoot Reports and Data YouTubehttps://www.youtube.com/@HarleyTheBigfootResearcherInstagramhttps://www.instagram.com/bigfoot_reports_and_dataClick that play button, and let's unravel the mysteries of the UNTOLD!

Hello Poison Friends! We are bringing you all more spooky season episodes! This one features good ole Appalachia and its spooky history and folklore. This is a huge area involving the Blue Ridge Mountains, Smoky Mountains, Allegheny Mountains, etc. The North, Central, and South Appalachians for ease, here, as it runs through thirteen states technically. This mountain range is older than trees themselves, and now they are covered in them. The forests are old and there are a lot of stories about what lives among them. Traditions, customs, and folklore from the Native Americans, early European settlers, and those forced to come here via the African slave trade have collided and melded together to form a unique culture full of superstition and ritual. Even some of the flora is super creepy, but beautiful. The ghost pipe plant (my favorite) and the Jack O'Lantern mushroom are two excellent examples of the spooky and toxic nature in the area. There are plenty of other poisonous plants we have mentioned before as well.Most who live in the Appalachian area or nearby know about the rules for the area. Do not whistle at night. Do not venture into the forest at night. If you hear your name being called...no you don't. Lets go over these rules and the spooky reasons behind them, as well as some other fun superstitions of the Appalachian region (at least the South and Central). We have to cover some of the many cryptids mentioned throughout the area. Some claim that the reasons behind some of the rules/superstitions there involve inhuman beings, evil spirits, and perhaps the devil himself. We are covering Mothman for one, but also the not deer as well as its similarities to some Native American cryptids that lure victims to themselves via mimicry and familiarity. Before being driven out of their ancestral lands, the Cherokee tribes living in the area told many stories about the land, mentioning several beings that lived in the surrounding mountains and forests. They had their own fairies of sort, who they called Nunne'Hi or "little people," and some were good while others were more complicated. They spoke of the moon-eyed people, the Wampus Cat, and spirit with the wings and cry of a raven that tormented the sick and dying so they could eat their hearts, and a terrifying witch known for eating the livers of children. The Appalachian region is huge and full of forests, abandoned mining towns, trails marked for visitors, and more forests. It is vast and easy to get lost in, if you are unfamiliar with the area, with little to no hope of anything good finding you. As such, it is easy to blame such mythical beings and superstitions for disappearances and misfortunes. Who knows, maybe there is some truth to some of these after all.

An OG jumper that started his static line course in the early 90's, Mr. Paul Wetzel, aka "Weasle" would go from rocking out of college where he had substantially more motivation for beer and skydiving that his courses, to Army Ranger school where he'd earn his jump wings; From trailer life in Louisiana to tandems in Las Vegas, and from helicopter flight ops in Iraq and Afghanistan to a food truck in North Carolina. Along the way he's made a Japanese man vomit with his ass (And my assist), taken thousands of tandems, hiked the Appalachian trail from end to middle and back and figured out just like a whole lot of us, how lucky he is to be part of the Lunatic Fringe.

What if America's wilderness hides a predator science won't acknowledge? In this episode of Dark Outdoors®, author Michael Mayes—known for his work Shadow Cats—joins us to dig into the controversial and chilling reports of black panthers roaming across the U.S. For decades, eyewitnesses from Texas to the Appalachians have sworn they've seen something impossible: massive black panthers prowling the woods, stalking farmlands, and vanishing into the shadows. Yet, mainstream science insists such creatures don't exist in North America. In this thought-provoking episode of Dark Outdoors, we sit down with author and researcher Michael Mayes to explore the mystery at the heart of his book Shadow Cats. Together, we examine chilling accounts, folklore, and the deep cultural roots of black panther sightings. Are these elusive predators a product of myth, mass misidentification, or could there be something truly hidden in America's wild places? Expect a conversation that pushes beyond campfire tales—diving into history, biology, and the unsettling implications of predators that may walk unseen. Whether you're a skeptic or a believer, this is one episode that will make you think twice the next time you walk into the woods after dark. Are they black mountain lions - black cougars? Are they black jaguars? Are they jaguarundi? Are they escaped exotics? What about the mysterious black longtail? Take a deep dive on black panthers with us.

What happens when a woman walking through heartbreak finds herself eye-locked with a towering figure in the Appalachian mountains — one she thought was only a legend? In this haunting and emotional episode, we sit down with Beth Duncan, a Bigfoot researcher and lifelong resident of Southern West Virginia, who shares not only her unforgettable close encounter with a cinnamon-colored Sasquatch — but a lifetime of chilling activity in her holler. From ghost horses and tree knocks to a Bigfoot that slammed down on a car and crushed her best footprint cast, Beth's story is filled with mystery, trauma, resilience, and awe. You'll hear accounts of creatures peeking from trees, empathic eye contact from something not human, and unexplained buzzing in the woods. This is one of the most raw and powerful firsthand encounters we've ever recorded — and it might change the way you look at Sasquatch forever.Resources: Beth's Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@bethduncan5809Referenced Youtube videos:Did We Find Evidence of Bigfoot in West Virginia? - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRtPygAd5KgThere's Something in the Woods - https://youtu.be/lUSQ58RM2M0Mystery Lights in Sasquatch Holler - https://youtu.be/npgJGQMbwAo?feature=sharedSasquatch Mountains of Madness - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a48t6_8gowoSasquatch Unleashed! - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RnjueWTrSDE

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! The Appalachian Mountains have long been steeped in mystery, folklore, and chilling tales of the supernatural. From whispered ghost stories to terrifying cryptid encounters, this rugged region of the United States is a hotbed of paranormal activity. But could some of these entities be more than folklore? Could they be demonic in nature, taking on monstrous forms that haunt the forests? In this Grave Talks Classic Episode, we sit down with John and Elijah Henderson, a father-and-son duo who grew up surrounded by the myths and mysteries of Appalachia. Their lives have been shaped by the region's traditions and superstitions, but also by firsthand encounters with things that defy explanation. John raises the haunting question: Can demonic entities disguise themselves as terrifying beasts in the forest? What if the cryptids that so many claim to see—shadowy figures, monstrous creatures, glowing eyes in the dark—aren't unknown animals at all, but manifestations of something darker? Together, John and Elijah share their journey into a world where ghosts are seen not just in abandoned houses, but in the mountains themselves. A world where cryptids walk hand in hand with folklore, and where demonic oppression may take forms we least expect. Suppose you've ever been fascinated by Appalachian folklore, ghost stories, cryptid sightings, or demonic encounters. In that case, this episode will make you question everything you thought you knew about what lurks in the forest after dark. The Appalachians aren't just beautiful—they're haunted.

On this week's episode of the *222 Paranormal Podcast*, we welcome a very special guest: **Pat O'Keefe**, storyteller, folklorist, and documentarian of the strange, magical, and mysterious world of the Appalachian region. Known for her deep research and personal experiences, Pat shines a light on a culture rich with history, tradition, and supernatural lore that has been passed down for generations. The Appalachian Mountains are more than just rolling hills and winding roads—they are alive with stories. Pat O'Keefe has spent years preserving these tales, especially those of the **granny witches**—wise women of the mountains who carried with them a blend of herbal knowledge, folk magic, and spiritual practices that bridged the gap between the physical and unseen worlds. In this episode, she shares her passion for uncovering these stories and explains why the traditions of Appalachian magic are so important to preserve in our fast-moving modern world. We dive into the heart of Pat's work and talk about: * **The legacy of Appalachian granny witches** – who they were, what they believed, and how they healed both body and soul. * **The intersection of folklore and the paranormal** – from ghostly apparitions in mountain hollers to unexplained lights in the woods. * **Pat's documentary work** – capturing the voices of locals who grew up hearing stories of spells, cures, omens, and encounters that defy logic. * **The role of faith, superstition, and nature** in shaping Appalachian spiritual practices. * How these traditions influence paranormal investigators and researchers today. What makes Pat's storytelling so powerful is her connection to the land and the people. She doesn't just collect stories—she honors them. With warmth and authenticity, she explains how folklore has always been a way for Appalachian families to pass down wisdom, cope with hardship, and stay connected to the mysteries of life and death. For our listeners who love ghost stories, Pat also shares chilling accounts of haunted cabins, spectral figures along mountain paths, and eerie experiences that leave even seasoned investigators at a loss for explanation. But beyond the chills, this episode opens up a deeper conversation about belief, tradition, and the ways humans make sense of the unknown. If you've ever been fascinated by folk magic, mountain mysteries, or the idea that the veil between worlds is just a little thinner in certain places, this is an episode you won't want to miss. Pat O'Keefe reminds us that the paranormal isn't always about high-tech equipment or big investigations—it's about listening to the voices of those who came before us, and understanding how they saw the world. In doing so, we keep those stories alive and maybe even open ourselves to new experiences with the unexplained. So grab your headphones, settle in, and join us as we journey into the Appalachian hills with Pat O'Keefe on this week's *222 Paranormal Podcast*.

In this dive into the Catholic Church’s journey through early American expansion, from the Appalachian frontier to the banks of the Mississippi. As the new nation charged westward, Catholic communities emerged amid rivers, revivals, and rapidly shifting cultural landscapes. We’ll trace how Bishop John Carroll and others laid the foundations for an American expression of Catholicism in a time shaped by canals, awakenings, and revolutionary ideals. #CatholicHistory #USHistory #JohnCarroll #SecondGreatAwakening #ErieCanal #AmericanCatholicism #BurnedOverDistrict #CatholicPodcast #ChurchHistorySupport the show:Buy me a coffee! https://buymeacoffee.com/historyofthepapacyPatreon: http://patreon.com/historyofthepapacyBuy me a book: http://bit.ly/40ckJ8EHave questions, comments or feedback?
