What mysteries lie beneath the waves, and can a journey across the sea bridge the gap between life and death? This month we take a look at two season 4 episodes that proclaim the mystery, intrigue, and uncertainty of the sea. Are you brave enough to dive into two of The Twilight Zone's most haunting maritime tales? In "The Thirty-Fathom Grave," a U.S. Navy ship discovers mysterious tapping sounds coming from a sunken submarine. Chief Bell becomes increasingly disturbed by the sounds, experiencing visions of his old crew members. It's revealed he was the sole survivor of that submarine's sinking in WWII, and the ghostly tapping represents his guilt-ridden past catching up with him. "Passage on the Lady Anne" follows a troubled married couple who book passage on an old ocean liner. They discover all other passengers are elderly and oddly content. The couple leaves the ship before realizing it was destined for a supernatural journey between life and death, taking its elderly passengers to their final destination. Set sail with us as we explore these spine-tingling episodes where the ocean becomes more than just endless waves - it's a gateway between worlds. From the haunting echoes of a World War II submarine to a mysterious final voyage on an aging ocean liner, these stories will make you question what lies in the deepest fathoms of both the sea and human consciousness. These episodes promise to leave you wondering about the true nature of guilt, redemption, and the thin line between this world and the next.   News Items: Serlingfest 2025 Rod Serling documentary to be teased at Serlingfest Connect with Entering the Fifth Dimension: Facebook community Follow us on Twitter Contribute Listener Feedback

When UFO researcher Budd Hopkins discovered three women who experienced eerily similar fake job interviews before their alien abductions, he uncovered a disturbing pattern that suggested something far more calculated than random encounters.IN THIS EPISODE: Three alien abductees investigated by the late Budd Hopkins are intriguing, not so much for the abductions themselves, but of a seemingly trivial detail involving bizarre interview scenarios that each woman experienced. As Hopkins investigated these curious setups further, he arrived at the conclusion that they are seemingly another layer of the alien abduction phenomena. Of particular concern is the notion that these truly strange encounters are suggestive of an end goal of a hybridization program being directly connected to alien abductions. And that the people themselves were actually alien-human hybrids, carrying some part of the mission to this concerning agenda. Of course, what the end goal of this alien-human hybridization program might be is another topic of debate. Are aliens looking to invade Earth discreetly without us even being aware of it? Or might they simply leave and venture elsewhere once their program's goals have been achieved? Tonight we'll look at the strange case of the multiple-abductions of one woman, and testimonies of other abductees who, while abducted, were manipulated somehow to believe that what they were seeing was ordinary people, items, and buildings - as opposed to the possibly grotesque and horrifying reality that was truly in front of them at the time. Was it done through mind control? Alien implants? And why do many of these abductees see humans alongside the extraterrestrials? ABOUT WEIRD DARKNESS: Weird Darkness is a true crime and paranormal podcast narrated by professional award-winning voice actor, Darren Marlar.

Read the full-length deep-dive article about the Villisca Axe Murder House in the Weird Darkness blog at https://weirddarkness.com/villiscaIn 1912, someone crept through an unlocked door in small-town Iowa with an oil lamp and an axe, leaving eight bodies and a mystery that still haunts the house where they died.Join the DARKNESS SYNDICATE: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateTake the WEIRD DARKNESS LISTENER SURVEY and help mold the future of the podcast: https://weirddarkness.com/surveyIN THIS EPISODE: Social media over-sharers are a common complaint. Facebook is a medium where people spill their guts, sometimes without enough discretion. While detailed status updates about breakups can be annoying, killers who confessed on social media give new meaning to the term "TMI." It's hard to believe, but some people use Facebook as a platform to announce the heinous crimes they've committed. (Online Crime Confessions) *** While some people confess on social media to the murders they've committed, in some cases it is social media that caused people to commit murder or be killed. We'll look at a few of those cases. (Dead Because of Social Media) *** What if you could talk to God? Not through prayer, but through thought? Where you would be able to converse directly, and receive direct answers. One group of scientists believed it was possible and set out to do just that. (A Direct Line To God) *** Author and researcher Raymond Fowler tackles the tricky and trippy subject of time slips, and ripples in time. (Raymond Fowler And The Ever Changing Nature of Time) *** A young girl is continually beckoned to take a boat ride – but the one doing the beckoning is not of this world. (The Ghost In The Boat) *** On June 10, 1912, all eight people inside the Moore family's house in Villisca, Iowa — including two adults and six children — were murdered by an axe-wielding assailant. It's a mystery over a century old that still has no answers.

Freddy Morris and Joe Juvland dive into The Twilight Zone episode "A Passage for Trumpet." Tune in as they unpack the episode's themes of redemption, second chances, and the haunting beauty of Jack Klugman's performance.

What seemingly innocuous prop in the Hollywood Tower Hotel lobby is actually foreshadowing our future in the Tower of Terror?On this episode of Distory with Kate and Kirk, we take a seat on some dusty couches to discuss symbolism, history, and meaning in the Tower's lobby. After discovering some bizarre faces and the hidden meaning of the Hollywood Tower Hotel logo, Kirk teaches us how to make some alligator suitcases, Kate unearths a Hollywood scandal, and we both step up to the front desk to check in for our stay. But the reception desk has secrets of its own, from nods to Imagineers, some (very) old chocolate, hidden Mickeys, references to the Twilight Zone, and one special feature that will change the way you see a prop forever, as it foreshadows what's to come.

In this episode, the Hosts dive headfirst—no helmet, no seatbelt—into the twitchy, strange world of folks who can kill with their minds! We're talking hypnosis that goes sideways, crimes committed by folks who claim their brains were being puppeteered by… something. Government psy-ops? Rogue hypnotists? The neighbor's cat? Who knows. It's part psych ward, part Twilight Zone, and it all reeks of stale coffee, tinfoil hats, and the lingering scent of misused authority. So buckle up and keep your thoughts to yourself—because if someone else is thinking of you, you might already be in trouble.

Despite the train's schedule, he continues to stop in, even when the train doesn't. | #RetroRadio EP0472Join the DARKNESS SYNDICATE: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateCHAPTERS & TIME STAMPS (All Times Approximate)…00:00:00.000 = Show Open00:01:30.028 = CBS Radio Mystery Theater, “The Train Stops” (August 23, 1976)00:45:02.836 = The Croupier, “The Roman” (September 21, 1949) ***WD01:14:03.471 = Ripley's Believe It or Not, “Dancing Corpses” (1930) ***WD01:15:05.432 = Sam Spade, “2512353679 Caper” (December 15, 1950) ***WD01:43:10.233 = The Sealed Book, “King of the World” (March 25, 1945)02:13:06.805 = The Shadow, “Death On The Bridge” (March 03, 1940) ***WD (LQ)02:37:41.473 = Sleep No More, “Mr. Mergenthwirker's Lobblies” and “August Heat” (November 28, 1956) ***WD03:01:58.463 = BBC Radio 4 Spine Chillers, “The Boy Who Cried Wolf” (1984)03:15:53.075 = Stay Tuned for Terror, “Lizzie Borden Took an Axe” (July 12, 1945) ***WD03:28:50.563 = Strange Wills, “Emeralds Come High” (August 24, 1946) ***WD03:58:33.655 = Strange, “Greenwood Acres” (October 10, 1955) ***WD04:11:06.498 = Suspense, “King's Birthday” (August 28, 1943) ***WD04:39:13.512 = Tales of the Frightened, “Story of Wood” (December 18, 1957)04:43:33.169 = Tales of Tomorrow, “The Old Die Rich” (March 26, 1953) ***WD05:15:20.133 = The Saint, “Fight” (December 17, 1952) 05:44:15.872 = Theater Five, “I'm Sorry Mom” (October 09, 1964)06:04:11.491 = 2000 Plus, “The Giant Walks” (November 05, 1950) ***WD (LQ)06:32:05.818 = The Unexpected, “Find The Man” (1948)06:46:52.621 = Nick Carter, “Death After Dark” (February 19, 1944) ***WD07:16:08.317 = Dark Venture, “Ten Dollar Bill” (August 14, 1945)07:45:06.181 = The Weird Circle, “Queer Client” (October 15, 1944)08:12:29.361 = The Whistler, “Last of Devereaux” (July 23, 1944)08:41:54.325 = Witch's Tale, “Graveyard Mansion” (March 06, 1933) ***WD09:12:00.571 = X Minus One, “Sea Legs” (May 01, 1956) 09:40:13.075 = Show Close(ADU) = Air Date Unknown(LQ) = Low Quality***WD = Remastered, edited, or cleaned up by Weird Darkness to make the episode more listenable.

When a single poem transformed Satan from a minor biblical character into a horned, pitchfork-wielding supervillain, it sparked centuries of hysteria that would culminate in 1980s America imprisoning innocent people for imaginary crimes against children who "remembered" flying teachers and underground tunnels that never existed.CORRECTION TO THE EPISODE: While angels are often depicted with wings, the Bible doesn't consistently portray them this way. I said the bible does not describe angels with wings, but that is incorrect. Some angelic beings, like cherubim and seraphim, are described with wings (e.g., in Exodus 25:20, Ezekiel 10:5-7, and Isaiah 6:2-7), but other angels appear in human form without any mention of wings (e.g., Genesis 18-19, Hebrews 13:2).Join the DARKNESS SYNDICATE: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateTake the WEIRD DARKNESS LISTENER SURVEY and help mold the future of the podcast = https://weirddarkness.com/surveyIN THIS EPISODE: Hollywood portrays Satan as everywhere - controlling world leaders, possessing pastors, inhabiting Ouija boards and children's toys. Yet Satan appears only a handful of times in the Bible. The horned, red devil we picture comes not from scripture but from a poem. Most Satanists don't even worship the devil. While Satan poses real danger, we often give him too much credit - blaming him for our bad choices or wild conspiracy theories. Still, some cases make you wonder about his true influence. What does Satan really look like? What's behind 666? Do people kill in his name? Are certain places under Satanic influence? We explore it all.ABOUT WEIRD DARKNESS: Weird Darkness is a true crime and paranormal podcast narrated by professional award-winning voice actor, Darren Marlar.

But after her killers were found, tried, and hanged, her story continued to fascinate the public even to the point of having folk songs sung about her.

A seductive stranger, a drugged drink, and a bathtub full of ice—discover why the most terrifying urban legend about organ theft is medically impossible, even though millions still believe it could happen to them.Join the DARKNESS SYNDICATE: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateTake the WEIRD DARKNESS LISTENER SURVEY and help mold the future of the podcast: https://weirddarkness.com/surveyIN THIS EPISODE: When hiring a ghost writer, you are paying someone to do some or even all of the writing of a book or novel for you – using your notes and outline – without taking any credit for themselves. But on the flip side, there are books written who give all credit to the ghost writers… because those ghost writers are literally authors who are ghosts. (Paranormal Prose: Books Written By Ghosts) *** When getting married, it's always best to tell your future spouse everything about yourself – no matter how sordid it might be. For if the news comes out after you've taken your vows, not only might it lead to divorce – but it could also lead to murder! (A Double Murderer Murdered) *** And while we're on the subject of marriage device – it's also never a good idea to cheat on your spouse, not matter how powerful and influential you are in society. That too can lead to brutal murder, very possibly your own, as Harvey Burdell found out. (Bond Street Tragedy) *** There are numerous eerie tales of the supernatural involving ghost brides and haunted wedding dresses. It makes you wonder if you plan on saying “I do”, if you're not also welcoming a residual haunting once “til death do us part” arrives. (Ghostly Bride of America) *** It happened in September of 2022 – hundreds of students all across the country of Mexico just fainted with no warning, while those around them were perfectly fine. Authorities still aren't sure they have found the explanation. (The Case Of Passed Out Pupils) *** Berkely Square is one of the most famous places in London, known for its beautiful garden and upscale living. Winston Churchill once lived here, as did Charles Rolls – cofounder of Rolls-Royce. The location has also been used for works of fiction, such as the television miniseries “Berkeley Square”, and even the home of fictional character Cathy Lane – Patty Lane's “identical cousin” from “The Patty Duke Show” on television. But Berkely Square also has a dark side – a building in the middle of the square, said to contain something not of this earth. (The Indescribable Beast of Berkely Square) *** But first… look out men, if you are approached by a beautiful woman seemingly out of nowhere – remember the saying: “if it's too good to be true, it probably is.” She may be less interested in your looks or money – and more interested in whats on your insides. Literally. We begin there! (Kidney Crooks)ABOUT WEIRD DARKNESS: Weird Darkness is a true crime and paranormal podcast narrated by professional award-winning voice actor, Darren Marlar.
