However, beneath the sensational headlines and pop culture portrayals lies an origin story rooted in real fear. From rural Puerto Rican farms to dusty Texas backroads, we trace the legend's spread, dissect the eyewitness accounts, and explore how one woman's sci-fi obsession may have helped shape the creature's image.Is the Chupacabra a blood-sucking predator, a misidentified animal, or something else entirely?

This week's Encounters dives into the dark, strange, and often terrifying world of urban legends that turn out to be a little too real. La Llorona, BEK, Goat Man, The Devil's Tree and Slender Man?! Are these just haunting tales passed around the campfire? What happens if they turn out to be real?! These listener stories might just prove that they are.  We're getting into: A nighttime visit to Red Ash Cemetery turns terrifying when a ghostly woman on all fours transforms into something... not quite human. A grandmother in Nepal encounters a black eyed kid — and nearly loses her life. A cursed tree with ties to a real serial killer might be responsible for a listener's heartbreaking paranormal loss. A game of midnight hide-and-seek with Slender Man that reveals a ghost girl phasing through a fence. A listener sees their mother at their bedroom door… except she never got out of bed that night. Whether you're chasing cryptid legends, playing paranormal games at 3 a.m., urban legends sometimes have roots in something very real — and very haunted.  Movie mentioned: Force Majeure Watch the video version here.

Der Begriff „Gaslighting“ für psychische Manipulation scheint seit einigen Jahren allgegenwärtig zu sein. Gaslighting soll in Beziehungen, im Beruf, in der Medizin und auch in der Politik stattfinden. Doch was genau ist damit gemeint und woher kommt der Begriff? Wir sind zu den Wurzeln zurückgegangen und haben sie in einem Theaterstück aus dem Jahr 1938 gefunden, dessen Verfilmung 1944 Ingrid Bergman ihren ersten Oscar einbrachte.

Nestled in the heart of East London, there is a sprawling expanse of wetlands, fields, and woodlands, a place where urban life meets untamed nature. Known for its soccer pitches and scenic paths along the River Lea, this green oasis has long been a haven for locals seeking escape from the city's hustle. But beneath its tranquil surface lies a darker tale—one of mystery, fear, and an elusive creature. It has been described as a "Giant, great beast" with shaggy black fur and standing over seven-feet-tall. For decades, whispered stories of a towering, growling entity have haunted the marshes, captivating the imaginations of cryptozoologists, thrill-seekers, and skeptics alike. Even the presence of photographs has not brought about any clear answers. Join Gary and GoldieAnn in this chilling exploration as they delve Within the Mists of England to discover the Hackney Marsh Beast.Sources:•Phantoms and Monsters, “Beast of Hackney Marshes,” April 30, 2025.•Daily Mail Online, “‘Beast of Hackney Marshes' is revealed to be huge Newfoundland dog owned by drummer from 90s band Kula Shaker,” May 24, 2012.•Hackney Gazette, “The ‘Beast of Hackney Marshes' mystery - pictures,” May 17, 2012.•London's Urban Legends, “The mysterious monster (Hackney),” June 13, 2018.Facebook Fan Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/544933724571696Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/withinthemistpodcast/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@withinthemistpodcast1977 Hosted on Acast.

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.
