Podcasts about tommyknockers

Hey Boos, join us today as we discuss a variety of legends stemming from Colorado! Before we get into that, we talk about what we think would be some good settings for horror movies. Then we get into the legends which include Tommyknockers, the Slide-Rock Bolter, the Hatchet Lady, the Vampire of Lafayette, and the Emma Crawford Coffin Races. For our Boo Crew Moment of the Week, Brooke shares an article she found on a Mosasaur fossil being discovered in a Mississippi lake. We would love to interact with you, send us an email or DM us on Instagram or Facebook!

After 1994's The Stand proved to be a monumental hit, ABC and other networks were intent on bringing other Stephen King properties to the small screen. This is why we got things like The Langoliers, The Tommyknockers, Kingdom Hospital, among others. But 20 plus years later, there were once again rumblings that The Stand was going to be adapted, this time with one film for the big screen. Directors like David Yates (Harry Potter) and Ben Affleck came and went from the project, all not knowing how they were going to keep the magnum opus book to one film. Enter Josh Boone (New Mutants) and Benjamin Cavell (Justified). With James Marsters (X-Men) and Alexander Skaarsgard (Big Little Lies) amongst many others -including two extremely toxic actors with turbulent personal lives- the nine part miniseries came and went at about the worst time imaginable for a piece of fiction about a virus that wipes out the world, which was the end of 2020. Join Garrett, Matt, and Adam as they review all nine episodes -including a brand new coda written by King himself- and determine if this is the ultimate version of The Stand. Come back next week, as the boys start their dive into the adaptations of King's first 80s novel, Firestarter.

In this week's episode of the 222 Paranormal Podcast, we descend into the haunted hollows of Pennsylvania and Kentucky, where ghost stories aren't just legends — they're warnings etched into rock. In the coal-rich hills of Pennsylvania, mining towns were built on the backs of hardworking men, many of whom paid the ultimate price underground. Accidents, cave-ins, and explosions claimed lives without mercy. Now, decades later, locals and paranormal investigators report unsettling encounters in abandoned shafts and sealed tunnels. At the Number 9 Coal Mine, visitors describe the sounds of picks striking rock, ghostly footsteps, and cold spots where no draft should reach. The Eckley Miners' Village, once a bustling hub, is now a preserved ghost town — literally. Shadows flit between buildings, and residents report hearing men speaking in hushed tones late at night, though no one is there. We also head south to Kentucky, home to one of the largest and oldest cave systems in the world — Mammoth Cave. With over 400 miles of mapped passages, this underground labyrinth has seen its share of tragedy. During the 1800s, part of the cave was used as a tuberculosis hospital. Patients lived — and died — in the cold, damp darkness. Park rangers and visitors alike report seeing pale figures, hearing labored breathing, and even encountering a phantom guide who offers to lead tours before disappearing into the stone. We'll also explore the infamous story of Floyd Collins, a cave explorer who became trapped in Sand Cave in 1925. Despite a nationwide rescue effort, Collins died alone in the darkness. Since then, strange activity has been reported near the cave — from soft weeping sounds to flickering lights with no source And let's not forget the Tommyknockers — mischievous spirits said to dwell in the mines, sometimes blamed for accidents but also credited with warning miners of danger. Are they folklore? Or a real phenomenon witnessed by those who've worked in the belly of the earth? Whether carved by man or nature, caves and mines hold the energy of trauma, tragedy, and mystery — making them perfect breeding grounds for the paranormal. In this episode, we share true stories, chilling eyewitness accounts, and eerie folklore that prove: when you go underground, you never know what you might awaken.

The boys discuss walking high, the Inspection Paradox and the legend of the Tommyknockers

The Tommyknockers is one of Stephen King's more bizarre books and is widely regarded as a bad one. The miniseries suffers from the same reputation. A sleepless night led me to a re-read of the book and took me down a rabbit trail exploring why this story has a bad reputation, and why I enjoy it in spite of that.

With a rich folklore, caves are home to a legion of cryptids, witches, and ghosts. We have strange humanoids, weird creatures (including a half human, half Bee nymph), South Americas answer to the Tommyknockers, and apparitions aplenty.    If you feel like digging deep to help us fund the podcast, consider supporting us at https://www.patreon.com/TQMpod You get early access to the main episode, an exclusive weekly bonus ep, chat and news. 

James Wan is famous for Saw, Insidious, The Conjuring, and Aquaman, but he's also produced a few Stephen King adaptations, including The Monkey, which is being released February 21st. We talk a lot about working with Osgood Perkins, how perfectly horror and comedy can work together if crafted correctly, his version of The Tommyknockers which never made it off the ground, and his love of Stephen King's It.

Premiere bei Radio Freies Ertrus! Zur 30. Folge haben wir gleich fünf Bände plus Staffelfazit im Gepäck – eine echte Mammutaufgabe!

Send us a textI've pestered my husband to write a book on the legends, myths and rumors of small people around the world for decades. Every culture on the planet holds dear stories of a group of small people that have unrivaled engineering skills that work during the night and live underground or in caves to stay safe from larger humans. These legendary people, If treated with reverence and respect, are known to give away treasures, or point the way to veins of gold, or build vital infrastructure overnight. Maybe it's because I've always been on the short side, measuring about five foot two standing on my tippy toes, but I've always felt a connection to this lore and these mystical people. Let's get into it.A Great Article Is the PERFECT Place to StartI found a great article that feels like the perfect place to begin. From Eagle's Rest Park dot org, Don and Diane Wells write;"The Folklore and Legends of many Native American Tribes and indigenous people from other countries include the stories of the Little People. The Little People live in the woods and are often thought to be hairy-faced dwarfs. Some are no higher than your knee; others are smaller. They build houses in the rock structures under the trees, along streams and sometimes in the trees. They hide from anyone coming into the forest. In the legends of the old countries, they are called Fairies, Brownies, Gnomes, Goblins, Leprechauns, and Pixies to name just a few. Each Native American Tribe has their own name for them. To the Iroquois, they are called Jogahoh; to the Comanche, they are called Nunnupi and to the Cherokee, they are the Yunwi Tsundi."Show Sources and MaterialsDwarves and Gnomes and More, by Don and Diane Wells, for Eagle's Rest ParkLegend of the Tennessee Pygmies (and their tiny stone gravesStrange Tales of Captured Fairies, Gnomes, and Other Mysterious Little People, Mysterious Universe, B.

WarriNoize The project of The Warrior and Noizemaker which was born from an almost 10 years friendship. Both members started DJing at around 2008 and both became major part of the hungarian hardcore scene. Through the years they represented hardcore in and out of Hungary, had the chance to share stage with huge names like D-Passion, Angerfist, Mad Dog or Tommyknocker and the list goes on.. The friendly home sessions gave the idea to combine forces and unleash the synergy with their eclectic, improvised sets which usually don't have boundaries of hardcore, but the main focus of their sets are classic mainstyle and industrial.

This month marks the 50th anniversary of the publication of Stephen King's first novel, “Carrie.” In the decades since, King has experimented with length, genre and style, but has always maintained his position as one of America's most famous writers.On this week's episode, host Gilbert Cruz talks to the novelist Grady Hendrix, who read and re-read many of King's books over several years, writing an essay on each as well as King superfan Damon Lindelof, the TV showrunner behind shows such as “Lost” and “The Leftovers.”Some of the books discussed in this episode: "Carrie," "Cujo," "Duma Key," "From a Buick 8," "The Tommyknockers," "The Stand," and "The Long Walk."Some of the articles referenced:Grady Hendrix's Stephen King essaysWhen Damon Lindelof, Carlton Cuse and J.J.

[Part 1] Cave creatures and “inner Earth beings” are said to inhabit the mines, tunnels, and crevices that lie beneath the earth. Ever heard of the tommyknocker, the trickster who warns of impending cave-ins? How about the “bluecap,” a spirit in the form of a blue flame known for assisting miners via miraculous powers? What's really going on in places like Cripple Creek in Colorado, or the Board Camp Crystal Mine in Arkansas? Between John Vivanco's remote viewing data of real-life sorcery and interdimensional portals, Rob Counts' investigative research into the history of creature sightings and mining superstitions, plus online footage of levitating stones, this foray into the stories of cave creatures is sure to be fascinating. Join John and Rob for a Metaphysical show that's out of this world.

Get ready to dive deep into the shadowy realms of the unexplained!

OCTOBER IS “OVERCOMING THE DARKNESS” MONTH when I dedicate the podcast to raising funds to support organizations who help people struggling with depression, anxiety, and thoughts of suicide or self-harm. Please help with either a small donation or share this link in your social media to encourage others to give, to get more information about the fundraiser and organizations we are helping, or to get the help that they or a loved one need: https://weirddarkness.com/hope.PLEASE SHARE THIS LINK in your social media so others who loves strange and macabre stories can listen too: https://weirddarkness.com/archives/17971IN THIS EPISODE: Did she drown? Did she commit suicide? Despite her death in 1889, we still don't know how Maggie Hourigan died. (The Mystery of Maggie Hourigan) *** In 1958 Gavin Gibbons wrote a children's science-fiction novel By Space Ship to the Moon, which featured a UFO landing on Moel Sych in the Berwyn Mountains of North Wales. Sixteen years later, in a surreal case of life imitating art, those very same mountains would again be the focus for a story involving a downed UFO. But this time, some said, the story was for real. (The UFO Case That Refuses to Die) *** Greer Island, a small patch of land close to where the West Fork of the Trinity River flows into Lake Worth, is heavily shaded by tall oaks, cedar elms and cottonwoods. One of the quietest spots in Fort Worth, the island is home to egrets and owls, perhaps an alligator or two. And maybe, just maybe, the Lake Worth Monster. (The Lake Worth Monster) *** In 2017, Washington State Senator Karen Keiser was quoted as saying, “The incidents continue, they continue, and we have to consider that there is potential cosmic life over the island… it's a very special place, with a cosmic presence.” What exactly happened on Maurey Island in 1947? (The Maurey Island Incident) *** Whether you're a true believer or one of those skeptics, stories of spirits haunting the living from the confines of a Ouija board can chill you to the bone, and make you think twice before communicating with entities from another dimension. (True And Disturbing Ouija Board Stories) *** What if creatures like gnomes and imps aren't just real – but also evil?

Lara just moved into a new house in an old coal-mining town in West Virginia. One night, she begins to hear sounds behind the walls of her basement bedroom. Knocking, knocking…This episode is sponsored by Keen. Check out all of their amazing gear in store or at REI.com. 

Little green gnomes that predict mining collapses? Well now I've heard everything! Tune in as we dig for the truth in the legends of subterranean fae folk. Is there any truth to the rumors that their eerie knocking on cave walls foretell death for miners? And are they really just green smurfs? Only one way to find out! Just remember, don't get spooked!

What is one to do when you find an alien spaceship buried on your property? Well, dig it up and start building weird-ass machines that can zap your little brother to a distant planet or sort mail real good. The Tommyknockers isn't one of King's most beloved books, but it does spawn a great discussion when you try to pick it apart.

Lead mining is one of the oldest industries in Wisconsin, and with it, comes some of the oldest tales and stories of the strange and bizarre. Mineral Point, and the hills of southwestern Wisconsin, is home to some of our most unique architecture, beautiful landscapes, as well as apparent centuries-old paranormal happenings.  Although today this area is an artist's haven, in the early decades of the 19th century, it was a rough and tumble region rife with miners, gamblers, and drifters, where crime was prevalent, and law enforcement was not. Lead mining led to an influx of European immigrants and those looking to strike it rich, and with them came stories and legends already generations old. Scott and Mickey discuss these "Ghosts of the Gray Gold," including purported vengeful spirits, phantoms, the mysterious 'tommyknockers,' and even vampires.  In the beginning banter, we discuss the latest in the Taylor Schabusiness saga, as well as the recent UAP hearings in front of Congress.

The U.S. Coast Guard says the missing submersible, Titan, imploded near the wreckage of the Titanic, killing all five people on board. Over a hundred years later since the ill-fated voyage of the Titanic, we are learning the lesson all over again but this time there are plenty of creepy coincidences and synchronicities that make you contemplate the possibility of a curse or some other vexing that comes with using the name, Titan, for a marine vessel—or maybe, there is some cosmic trickster at play.

As a seasoned horror fan who grew up reading Stephen King books, I've always tried to watch every single film adaptation ever made from his stories.  Over the years the violence and gore quotient of the average horror movie increases relative to the tolerance of the viewer's stomach.  Before this turns into a math and biology lesson, I just mean to say it takes a lot to scare or shock us these days, right?  After all, once you run out of vampires, vengeful prom queens and rabid dogs, even the imagination of King gets stretched a little thin coming up with new frights to unleash upon us.  The terrors in the two stories I talk about here are a bit far-out, leaning more toward science fiction than horror, and it doesn't help that they were both made for television in the early  1990s, where visual effects were barely learning to crawl and the screen was still a square!  Now I'm getting into geometry, and that's not the topic here!  The Tommyknockers and the Langoliers, whatever the heck those are, were not Stephen King's finest hour.  They were, in fact,  8 hours of sitting in front of the idiot box (remember, television = commercial breaks every 15 minutes, get your calculators out...).  You'd have to be a fairly hardcore King fanatic to have sat through these two miniseries, so let me dilute them down for everyone else.  And, for those of you who don't like horror, don't worry.  The only reason you should be afraid to watch these movies is because they kinda suck.

“NASTY GNOMES, EVIL IMPS, AND TERRIFYING TOMMYKNOCKERS” and More True Terrors! #WeirdDarknessIN THIS EPISODE: Did she drown? Did she commit suicide? Despite her death in 1889, we still don't know how Maggie Hourigan died. (The Mystery of Maggie Hourigan) *** In 1958 Gavin Gibbons wrote a children's science-fiction novel By Space Ship to the Moon, which featured a UFO landing on Moel Sych in the Berwyn Mountains of North Wales. Sixteen years later, in a surreal case of life imitating art, those very same mountains would again be the focus for a story involving a downed UFO. But this time, some said, the story was for real. (The UFO Case That Refuses to Die) *** Greer Island, a small patch of land close to where the West Fork of the Trinity River flows into Lake Worth, is heavily shaded by tall oaks, cedar elms and cottonwoods. One of the quietest spots in Fort Worth, the island is home to egrets and owls, perhaps an alligator or two. And maybe, just maybe, the Lake Worth Monster. (The Lake Worth Monster) *** In 2017, Washington State Senator Karen Keiser was quoted as saying, “The incidents continue, they continue, and we have to consider that there is potential cosmic life over the island… it's a very special place, with a cosmic presence.” What exactly happened on Maurey Island in 1947? (The Maurey Island Incident) *** Whether you're a true believer or one of those skeptics, stories of spirits haunting the living from the confines of a Ouija board can chill you to the bone, and make you think twice before communicating with entities from another dimension. (True And Disturbing Ouija Board Stories) *** What if creatures like gnomes and imps aren't just real – but also evil?
