(The Ant People and the Anunnaki) *** The red-faced ghost of Rollesby comes with an an identity crisis. People aren't sure if the bloody face they see is the ghost of a murderer - or a victim of murder. (The Red-Faced Ghost of Rollesby) *** A woman is scared senseless when someone visits her home during a rainstorm… but it's not just any passerby. (The Faceless Girl In The Striped Dress) *** One thing people just cannot seem to resist is a challenge – doubly so if you happen to be of the criminal persuasion. If they're told a place is impregnable, it makes it an almost irresistible challenge. (Never Say Your Place Is Impregnable) *** Joachim Kroll, the "Ruhr Cannibal," terrorized West Germany for over 20 years, eating the flesh of his victims because "meat was expensive." (The Duisburg Man Eater) *** It is said that the Vatican is holding manuscripts that hold details about ancient races of man that used to populate the Americas – powerful rulers from the south, described as having white beards, and red eyes. Who could these people have been – and where have they gone? (The Mystery of the Ancient White-Bearded Red-Eyed Rulers) *** We all know the Nazis inflicted terror and death upon innocent people during WWII – but many don't know just how horrifying the treatment was, particular the experiments they conducted on living prisoners.

For two years, a knife-wielding predator terrorized the women of London — but when authorities finally made an arrest, the evidence was shakier than anyone wanted to admit. "The Monster" terrorized fashionable women by slashing their clothing and flesh, leading to a sensational manhunt that captured a suspect – but was he really the culprit?*No AI Voices Are Used In The Narration Of This Podcast*IN THIS EPISODE: In March 1788 Maria Smythe was attacked by a stranger who uttered some foul words, stabbed her, then ran. She survived, but was only the first of more than fifty women to suffer the same in London. This wasn't Jack The Ripper – he wouldn't come along for another 100 years. This was the Monster of London. (The Monster of London) *** On his first day walking to the bus stop alone before school, Etan Patz was abducted – and became one of the first children whose face ended up on a milk carton.

(The Sinister Left-Handers) *** In 1827, young Maria Marten slipped into a red barn to meet her secret lover. It was the last time she would be seen alive. (The Red Barn Murder) *** It sounds like the makings of a paranormal slasher film – a woman is followed home one day by a paranormal entity – an entity that is angry because it used to be a human that was murdered. (The Haunting of Leah Lewis) *** Imagine your business is failing and you need to drum up customers, so you hire a consultant. “No problem,” he says. “All I need is a few things to get started… do you happen to have have any problems chopping off your closest living relative's hand?” Welcome to Muti magic that some say still takes place even today. (Murderous Muti Magic) *** Edward Howard Bell was a murderer on the run and evaded capture for close to twenty years. When finally captured, authorities found out they didn't just have a murderer… but a serial killer, who he claims had sent eleven young girls to heaven.

In 1903, two hunters tracking moose through the frozen Yukon wilderness stumbled upon a massive furrow in the mud — thirty feet long, flanked by clawed footprints the size of a man — and followed the trail straight to something that shouldn't exist. What a French traveler, a gold prospector, and a Jesuit priest would witness clambering out of a remote Arctic ravine defies every assumption about what still roams the Canadian wild.*No AI Voices Are Used In The Narration Of This Podcast*IN THIS EPISODE: Is it possible that dinosaurs lived recently? Like, in the 1900s? Even more bizarre… could they have been living in the 20th century in, of all places, the Arctic Circle? (The Monster of Partridge Creek) *** On May 3, 1881, Mena Muller and Louis Kettler took the ferry from New York City to Hoboken, New Jersey. They were going to be married in Hoboken, although they each had a spouse already. The legality of the marriage did not concern them; they were returning to Germany and would start a new life there. But somehow their plans went awry; that night Louis Kettler returned to New York alone and ten days later Mena Muller's body was found in New Jersey with a fractured skull. (The Guttenberg Murder) *** Timothy Trespas lives in his home in Brooklyn. And I do mean in his home – as he rarely leaves the house, because he feels he is being stalked everywhere he goes by gangs of individuals. And he's not the only one. (Gang Stalking Paranoia) *** They say walking is good for you… but that depends on where you walk, when you walk, and who you bump into, as one person found out late one night just trying to alleviate the boredom. (The Smiling Man) *** We've all slept in longer than we planned. What's the longest you ever slept in? Three hours? Thirteen hours? Did you ever sleep three days straight? I think I see maybe two hands raised out there. You two are amateurs. One man slept 300 days out of the year. (Never Enough Sleep) *** A man had several unexplained incidents while hiking in a German forest. Shaken by the events, he eventually encounters a man with bright green eyes.

Deep within Navajo culture lives a creature that was once human — a witch who murdered their own family to gain the power to shapeshift, possess the living, and control the dead.*No AI Voices Are Used In The Narration Of This Podcast*IN THIS EPISODE: The Navajo believe there are places where the powers of both good and evil are present and that those powers can be harnessed for either. And the masters of these powers are the skinwalkers. (Skinwalking Witches) *** If you hear the words “murder” and “London” you immediately think of Jack the Ripper – but he is only one of many brutal murderers who prowled the foggy city looking for victims. We'll look at some of the most gruesome in London's history. (Murderous London) *** Since it was built in 1981, the Sunshine Skyway Bridge connecting St. Petersburg to Tampa, Florida has been a harbinger of tragedy. The four-mile-long bridge rises like a mastodon 430 feet into the bright sunlight. On or around the bridge, there have been hundreds of suicides, as well as deadly shipwrecks. And in 2016, there was the heinous murder of a child let down by the very system designed to protect her. (The Bridge to Tragedy) *** You've probably seen a street artist in person or on video appearing to defy gravity – floating as in mid-air, hoping you'll give them some of your pocket change. And of course you've seen magicians levitate the beautiful assistant, or levitate themselves. But then there are those who say they can do it for real – no trickery involved. Some are laughable, but others make you wonder.

There are cases that make people question everything they thought they knew about how justice works — and then there are cases like these. The names Brendan Dassey and Kimberly Long have been argued over in courtrooms, in living rooms, and in comment sections for years, by people who cannot let go of the nagging sense that something went terribly wrong. And wrapped around both of their stories is a question that researchers, attorneys, and psychologists have spent decades trying to answer — one that sounds simple until you really sit with it.*No AI Voices Are Used In The Narration Of This Podcast*Take the Weird Darkness Survey: https://take.supersurvey.com/QGZCRXPVSIN THIS EPISODE: In 2007, a sixteen-year-old boy was tried and convicted as an adult for the assault and murder of a woman in Wisconsin. But is it possible that Brendan Dassey isn't guilty as we were all led to believe? (Is Brendan Dassey Innocent?) *** After a night of bar-hopping, Ozzy Conde and girlfriend Kimberly Long got into an argument that ended up with Ozzy laying on the floor – dead. Kimberly was sent to prison. At least that's the story the prosectors told. But Kimberly fought for years to try and convince people she was not a murderer. But was she? (Kimberly's Long Struggle to Prove Her Innocence) *** The idea of someone breaking down and confessing to police that they committed a crime – when in actuality they did not do it – seems ludicrous to us. But it happens all the time. Why on earth would someone ever do such a thing? We'll look a bit closer at how it happens.

Molt emocionades de ser les obreres de Santa Cristina. Així se senten Ona Cervera, Anna Termes, Carla Feliu i Jana Martí. Totes quatre han pres possessió del càrrec aquest diumenge a l'Aplec dels Perdons. Una tasca que s'allarga tot un any, en què representen l'Obreria de Santa Cristina i que culmina amb l'esperat Ball de Plaça del 24 de juliol, dins la festa Major de Lloret de Mar. La primera obrera, Ona Cervera, assenyala que “és un orgull immens ser obrera, ho he viscut des de petit, és molt especial formar-ne part des de dins, el sentiment del Ball de Plaça només l'entén la gent de Lloret, aquest record serà per sempre”. Anna Termes, la segona obrera, explica que “és formar part d'una tradició molt arrelada, no és només participar en un ball o una festa, és la nostra identitat, el Ball de Plaça és únic i resumeix molt bé Santa Cristina, he esperat tota la vida ser escollida i recordaré la meva àvia”. Les obreres del 2026, amb representants de l’Obreria i de l’Ajuntament, a l’ermita de Santa Cristina. La tercera obrera, Carla Feliu, reconeix que “quan m'ho van dir, no m'ho creía, vaig cridar i plorar a la vegada, feia anys que ho esperaba, és un somni i em sento molt afortunada, ens ve un gran any per davant, ara comença la nostra festa major”. Jana Martí, la darrera obrera, subratlla que “és un honor formar part de l'Obreria i contribuir a mantenir viva aquesta tradició, des de petita jo i la meva família hem estat molt vinculats a la Festa Major, emocionada de poder viure un any tan especial, sempre he volgut ser al Ball de Plaça”. Ona Cervera, Anna Termes, Carla Feliu i Jana Martí són ja les obreres de Santa Cristina del 2026. L'Aplec dels Perdons també ha permès formalitzar la renovació de dos càrrecs de l'entitat: Francesc Batlle i Josep Maria Esqueu com a obrer major i comptador.

When scientist Edward Bloom demonstrated humanity's first anti-gravity device to the world, a single billiard ball punched through his chest at the speed of light — and the only question that remains is whether the man who aimed it knew exactly what would happen.*No AI Voices Are Used In The Narration Of This Podcast*Take the Weird Darkness Survey: https://take.supersurvey.com/QGZCRXPVSIN THIS EPISODE: “The Billiard Ball” is a science fiction murder mystery short story by author Isaac Asimov, written in September 1966 and first published in the March 1967 issue of “If”. The story is based on a journalist's tale on the events that occurred when an antigravity device was discovered. The story describes the relationship between the creator of the device, billionaire inventor Edward Bloom, and his old college friend James Priss, a Nobel Prize-winning theoretical physicist who discovered the theory on which Bloom's invention is based. Both also happen to be very good pool players.HELPFUL LINKS & RESOURCES…https://WeirdDarkness.com/STORE = Tees, Mugs, Socks, Hoodies, Totes, Hats, Kidswear & Morehttps://WeirdDarkness.com/HOPE = Hope For Depression or Thoughts of Self-Harmhttps://WeirdDarkness.com/NEWSLETTER = In-Depth Articles, Memes, Weird DarkNEWS, Videos & Morehttps://WeirdDarkness.com/AUDIOBOOKS = FREE Audiobooks Narrated By Darren Marlar SOURCES and RESOURCES:“The Billiard Ball” by Isaac Asimov: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/4a7a9m9a=====(Over time links may become invalid, disappear, or have different content.

A mysterious figure in a wide-brimmed hat and trench coat has been appearing in bedrooms across the world for centuries — and scientists are uncovering disturbing patterns in who sees him and why.*No AI Voices Are Used In The Narration Of This Podcast*Take the Weird Darkness Survey: https://take.supersurvey.com/QGZCRXPVSIN THIS EPISODE: Thousands of people across dozens of countries have reported waking paralyzed in the night, staring at the same featureless figure in a wide-brimmed hat standing in the corner of their room. The trail of documented evidence behind who he is — and where he came from — runs through classified government files, unexplained refugee deaths, and a common allergy medication sold at every pharmacy in America. (The Hat Man: Why Thousands See The Same Ominous Figure In Their Bedrooms) *** Scientists are strapping heart rate monitors on haunted house visitors, equipping them with skin conductance sensors, and running them through chainsaw-wielding pig-men in abandoned factories — and what they're finding about why humans deliberately seek out terror is reshaping how we understand fear, anxiety, therapy, and the human brain itself. Turns out the people walking voluntarily into the dark may be onto something the rest of us haven't figured out yet.

Between 1081 and 1903, roughly 20 Japanese Buddhist monks voluntarily endured a grueling three-year process of starvation and isolation — sealing themselves alive inside stone tombs in pursuit of becoming Buddha in their own bodies.*No AI Voices Are Used In The Narration Of This Podcast*Take the Weird Darkness Survey: https://take.supersurvey.com/QGZCRXPVSIN THIS EPISODE: One of the greatest monsters ever to be brought to the screen was The Mummy, portrayed by Boris Karloff. We have, of course, seen numerous recreations of the creature since the original Universal film, but still, the image is grotesque and frightening no matter the incarnation. To see a mummy in real-life is that much more shocking. But real fear… real terror… would be if you yourself were to be mummified… while still alive. (To Be Mummified Alive) *** In the days that followed the rescue of 11-year-old Terry Jo Duperrault from the wreckage of the yacht called the Bluebelle, it would became clear that a storm hadn't destroyed the ship, as the previously-rescued captain, Julian A. Harvey, had said earlier. A storm hadn't killed everyone aboard… Harvey himself had. (The Final Voyage of the Bluebelle) *** When a loved one passes away, we sometimes wish we could speak to them one last time. Some people report they received phone calls or voicemails they believe are from their deceased loved ones. Sometimes they come through as eerie otherworldly static, while other times the ghostly caller is able to communicate one last message. We'll share a few true stories from people who have received phone calls from the beyond. (Phone Calls From Beyond The Grave) *** If you buy a furnished home and move the furniture to clean the floor – and the furniture moves back on its own – you can be pretty sure you've just moved into a haunted house. That's exactly what one family in Rockford, Illinois found out. (A Haunting on School Street) *** And I'll end the episode with the story that I began it with – a short story by Louisa May Alcott called “Lost in a Pyramid”… or “The Mummy's Curse”. A story that went pretty much unnoticed when it was originally published in 1869, but has had somewhat become undead since 1998 when it was rediscovered and is now considered an influential example of early “mummy's curse” narratives.CHAPTERS & TIME STAMPS (All Times Approximate)…00:00:00.000 = Short Message00:00:20.684 = The Foreboding00:01:41.062 = Show Open00:04:41.066 = The Final Voyage of the Bluebelle00:18:32.491 = Phone Calls From Beyond the Grave ***00:36:53.017 = A Haunting On School Street ***00:43:39.779 = To Be Mummified Alive00:50:44.908 = The Mummy's Curse (Lost in a Pyramid) – fictional story ***01:16:00.096 = Show Close*** = Begins immediately after inserted ad breakHELPFUL LINKS & RESOURCES…https://WeirdDarkness.com/STORE = Tees, Mugs, Socks, Hoodies, Totes, Hats, Kidswear & Morehttps://WeirdDarkness.com/HOPE = Hope For Depression or Thoughts of Self-Harmhttps://WeirdDarkness.com/NEWSLETTER = In-Depth Articles, Memes, Weird DarkNEWS, Videos & Morehttps://WeirdDarkness.com/AUDIOBOOKS = FREE Audiobooks Narrated By Darren Marlar SOURCES and RESOURCES:“The Final Voyage of the Bluebelle” by Lucia for The Ghost In My Machine: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/23utyhja“Phone Calls From Beyond the Grave” by Amanda Ashley for Graveyard Shift: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/7bw36uh4“A Haunting on School Street” by Kathi Kresol for Haunted Rockford: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/s3c76yeb“To Be Mummified Alive' by Bipin Dimri for Historic Mysteries: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/j89cukfe“The Mummy's Curse/Lost In a Pyramid” by Louisa May Alcott: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/pwd9h3cb=====(Over time links may become invalid, disappear, or have different content.

For centuries and across nearly every culture on earth, enormous black dogs with glowing red eyes have appeared to the living as omens of death — and the people who dismissed the legend rarely lived long enough to regret it.*No AI Voices Are Used In The Narration Of This Podcast*IN THIS EPISODE: One of our Weirdo family members has asked if I wouldn't consider doing an episode on man's best friend – but as this is Weird Darkness I couldn't very well just pull a bunch of stories of dogs saving lives of lost children, or walking hundreds of miles back to their families after being left behind on a trip, or solving a crime by sniffing out drugs in an airport. So in this episode we're talking about dogs of the supernatural kind – the ghostly dogs, the specters and phantoms in canine form. HELPFUL LINKS & RESOURCES…https://WeirdDarkness.com/STORE = Tees, Mugs, Socks, Hoodies, Totes, Hats, Kidswear & Morehttps://WeirdDarkness.com/HOPE = Hope For Depression or Thoughts of Self-Harmhttps://WeirdDarkness.com/NEWSLETTER = In-Depth Articles, Memes, Weird DarkNEWS, Videos & Morehttps://WeirdDarkness.com/AUDIOBOOKS = FREE Audiobooks Narrated By Darren Marlar SOURCES and RESOURCES:“Ghostly Dogs and Phantom Hounds” from LookAndLearn.com: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/bbnfdtyc, Anomalien.com: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/xznp7j4, Ancient-Origins.net: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/vavhruuj, TransCeltic.com: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/d8s3mhhd, and MysteriousBritain.co.uk: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/2cwk3kxr, https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/f385mrjm=====(Over time links may become invalid, disappear, or have different content.

Think vampires are just spooky fun from movies and books? Wait until you hear about the real-life people who took their bloodthirsty obsession way too far.IN THIS EPISODE: If you're a fan of U.S. History, you might already know that camels once roamed the American Southwest – brought to Texas by the military because they'd be perfect for the desert climate. But once it was all over a legend remained… a terrifying one. (The Red Ghost of Arizona) *** Just because an official government report is released about a UFO sighting or incident doesn't mean that Ufologists and researches are going to accept those findings – or the story the government tells. Thus is the case with a UFO incident in 1952 outside of Tokyo at the Haneda Air Force Base. (The Heneda Incident) *** When it comes to horror and fantasy, you'd be hard-pressed to find something more dangerous or terrifying than the vampire. Skulking around at night, feeding off the blood of the living, shapeshifting into a wolf or bat, hypnotic powers… it's creepy stuff. Good thing it's just fiction. But when you discover criminals in our actual world who think they are vampires – that horror and danger becomes all too real.

A London gravedigger spent two years quietly digging up the dead by day and selling their bodies, teeth, and severed limbs to hospitals by night — with a 14-year-old girl holding the basket.HEAR THE NEW SONG FOR THIS EPISODE! https://youtu.be/7_uVLP_0YUM *** For the final story in this podcast episode, "Knights, Dragons, and Dino DNA"... “DINOSAUR” is a pop-punk thought experiment about ancient monsters, biblical beasts, and the uncomfortable possibility that some things might not be as settled as we're told. From Behemoth to Leviathan to a certain long-necked lake resident, the song asks a simple question: if it looks like a dinosaur, sounds like a dinosaur, and terrifies everyone like a dinosaur… what exactly are we waiting for? It's a raised eyebrow to long-held beliefs set to power chords. (Interpret responsibly.)IN THIS EPISODE: The Phaistos Disc was discovered in 1903, by Italian archaeologists in southern Crete. Since then the disc has remained a mystery as no one has been able to decipher the writings upon it, nor who made the object, what was it used for, and even if it's a genuine archaeological discovery or a clever fake. (The Phaistos Disc) *** Usually you learn that a place is haunted simply because people say it is. It's common knowledge around the town or neighborhood… but when the government of your country says a place is haunted, you'd better danged well listen. Such is the case with India's Bhangarh Fort. (Bhangarh Fort – The Most Haunted Place in India) *** At the end of 1894 French army captain Alfred Dreyfus, a graduate of the École Polytechnique, and a Jew of Alsatian origin, was accused of handing secret documents to the Imperial German military. After a closed trial, he was found guilty of treason and sentenced to life imprisonment on the dreaded Devil's Island. But that's just the beginning of the story that later became known as The Dreyfus Affair. (The Dreyfus Affair) *** We've all heard of the power of the mind – it's been shown to be beneficial in the treatment of pain, some well-trained individuals can use their mind to slow their rate of respiration, to bring their heartbeat down to almost nothing with no long-term ill effects… but what about controlling things outside of your own body? Is the mind that powerful? Some believe so – and they also believe it's one possible explanation for hauntings. (The Wild PK of the Poltergeist) *** Is it possible that our history books are wrong and that humans actually did walk with dinosaurs? It might not be as far-fetched as it sounds, especially when you look at tales of knights, dragons, and T-Rex DNA. (Knights, Dragons, and Dino DNA) *** We'll have a short tale about Joseph Naples… who chose the macabre career of being a grave digger… but only because it made it easier for him to be a grave robber… and a body snatcher.

Behind the grandeur of New Orleans' infamous LaLaurie Mansion lies a chilling legacy of cruelty, paranormal hauntings, and the lingering memory of Madame Delphine's horrific acts.IN THIS EPISODE: IN THIS EPISODE: We're all familiar with, thanks to Stephen Spielberg, the concept of a close encounter of the third kind. That's when you not only see a UFO, but you also see the extraterrestrials. The fourth kind of encounter is when you are abducted. A close encounter of the fifth kind is when you communicate with the alien – either verbally or telepathically. But then there is a close encounter of the sixth kind – the kind of encounter not even die-hard Ufologists and lovers of anything extraterrestrial want to experience… because nobody comes back from it alive. (Close Encounters of the Sixth Kind) *** In 1908, Charles Luard found his wife Caroline shot dead at a neighbor's country house. But who killed her? (The Seal Chart Murder) *** Madame Delphine LaLaurie, made popular by Kathy Bates in TV's “American Horror Story: Coven” was a first class monster. A figure of high society, she was well known for her mistreatment of slaves. But no one knew just how sick she truly was. So much so that even after leaving the mansion and it burning down, there are still terrors taking place there, thanks to Madame Delphine LaLaurie, the Monster of Royal Street.

In 1920, a young man on a fishing trip in the Canadian wilderness stumbled upon an injured stranger trapped in a rocky crevice — and the "plane" parked nearby was no plane at all. What followed was a lifelong friendship that revealed humanity's ancient past and an alien perspective on where we're headed as a species.IN THIS EPISODE: We all love cute pet photos – so often those photos almost make our furry friends look human – even smiling in some cases. But one particular type photo being shared via email – a photo of a smiling dog – would never be described as cute, as it drives some people literally insane. Is it real, or just another cyber-located urban legend? (Smile.Dog) *** Being kidnapped by gypsies is a somewhat negative stereotype towards those who truly live the lifestyle. They don't typically go out of their way to snatch people away… but in one particular circumstance it truly did happen – and it created an incredibly strange tale. (Kidnapped By Gypsies) *** Albert Coe's story sounds more like a Stephen Spielberg film as opposed to a true story. But Coe insists it really did happen – that he saved the life of an extraterrestrial – and it resulted in them becoming lifelong friends.

Sea monster tales have existed for thousands of years, with stories of giant squids and octopuses being especially common. But where's the last place you'd expect to find such a creature? The desert of Oklahoma, perhaps?IN THIS EPISODE: Tales of sea monsters go back millennia, tales of giant squids and octopus are particularly prevalent. But where is the last place on earth you'd expect to find such a creature? How about the desert landscape of Oklahoma? (The Oklahoma Octopus) *** Parental hostility drove a girl out of her home and into the arms of her cousin. As I'm sure you can guess, that was not a wise decision. (Kissing Cousins) *** I'll read a short passage from G. Michael Vasey's book, “Chasing the Goddess”, a chapter called “Strange Things Happen To Me”. *** Margaret Allen was hanged to death. But it's the strange life she lived and the odd nature of her crime that still interests people in her case. (The Hanging of Margaret or Bill) *** 12-year-old Gabriel enjoyed playing games with an online friend.
