Podcasts about visitors

Martin Willis welcomes Kelly Hughes and Sam N. Milodragovich, co-creators of the Frightday and Visitors podcasts, for a fascinating deep dive into UFOs, conspiracies, cryptids, and the enduring legacy of Art Bell's Midnight in the Desert. Kelly Hughes has been fascinated by the paranormal since childhood—growing up listening to Art Bell with her father. As a longtime voice on the Frightday horror podcast (syndicated on the Dark Matter Digital Network), Kelly's reporting and interviews led to VISITORS, a 2025 spinoff exploring UFOs, abductions, and the people behind the phenomena. Her warmth and curiosity have made her a standout in the UFO and paranormal community. Sam N. Milodragovich, Frightday co-founder and VISITORS host, brings a deep appreciation for the macabre and a skeptical yet open-minded perspective on the unexplained. With roots in horror, true crime, and high strangeness, Sam has interviewed remarkable figures from science, government, and beyond—unraveling the stories that linger between the known and the unknown. Together, Kelly and Sam bring their signature intelligence, humor, and insight to this conversation—touching on historical UFO cases, media narratives, and why the unexplained still matters today.  SHOW NOTESSupport the Show & Stay Connected!

The 'Dead Children's Playground' urban legend is most often linked to the small play area beside Maple Hill Cemetery in Huntsville, Alabama. A place where grief and suggestion overlap. Visitors report swings moving on their own, childlike voices emitting from the dark, and odd lights appearing in photographs, but is there any truth to it?In this chapter, Urban Legends examines what can be verified, what is only claimed, and how a modern haunt grows from older histories and the psychology of play.Text Me (this is 3rd party & I cannot respond, but I see all messages)This chapter is sponsored by Scary Story Podcast.

This week's message reminds us that real fruit doesn't come from chasing dreams but from growing deeper in Christ. Your dream is not fruit; your maturity in Him is. Visitors don't mature—abiders do. There are real consequences to not abiding, but those who remain in Him bring joy to His heart. This post was inspired by a prophetic prayer shared by one of our prayer team members this week, calling us back to stay connected to the Vine and let our lives bear lasting fruit.

In September 1903, the quiet farming town of Van Meter, Iowa became the stage for one of the most credible and terrifying cryptid encounters in American history. For five consecutive nights, townspeople reported a winged creatureunlike anything they'd ever seen — an enormous being with leathery bat-like wings and a glowing horn on its headthat emitted a blinding beam of light powerful enough to pierce the darkness.This wasn't the tale of drunkards or overactive imaginations. The witnesses included the town doctor, the bank cashier who later became mayor, and multiple respected businessmen — credible, level-headed citizens with everything to lose and nothing to gain by reporting what they saw.The creature stood eight to nine feet tall, with smooth skin, a blunt horn, and glowing eyes, described consistently by multiple witnesses. Even more disturbing, it appeared immune to bullets. Dr. Alcott fired five shots at close range without effect. Clarence Dunn opened fire through a bank window. O.V. White shot at the creature while it perched atop a telephone pole. Nothing slowed it down. The confrontation reached its climax when an armed mob tracked the being to an abandoned coal mine at the edge of town. There, they discovered not one creature—but two.A larger and a smaller entity emerged from the shaft, seemingly impervious to the barrage of gunfire that followed. The townsfolk, terrified beyond reason, sealed the mine entrance with brick and mortar, entombing the unknown visitors deep underground.This episode examines every documented event from those five nights and explores the enduring mystery of the Van Meter Visitor — a creature that continues to defy explanation more than a century later. From pterosaurs and demonsto extraterrestrial beings and underground species, we dig into every theory — and why none can explain all the evidence.

Everyone who knows about the Van Meter Visitor knows about the five nights of terror in October 1903 when a winged creature with a light-emitting horn terrorized the small Iowa town. Credible witnesses. Contemporary documentation. Physical evidence. The whole town saw it, shot at it, and eventually sealed it in an abandoned coal mine. The story became legend.But what almost nobody knows is that the Van Meter Visitor came back.Eighty years later, in October 1983, a fifteen year old boy and his father went coon hunting in the woods near Van Meter and had an encounter that would haunt them for the rest of their lives. An encounter they never reported. An encounter they swore to keep secret. An encounter that proved the creature was never really trapped at all. This is the story of that night, told in the words of the man who lived through it. Now fifty-five years old and finally breaking his silence after his father's death, he recounts in terrifying detail what happened when they encountered something in those dark Iowa woods that shouldn't exist. Something that matched every description from 1903. Something that took their dog Buck and nearly killed their other dog Belle.Something that couldn't be stopped with bullets or courage or anything else they had. This isn't a vague sighting or a distant glimpse. This is a close encounter with one of America's most documented cryptids, told by someone who was there, who saw it clearly, who watched it fly away with his dog clutched in its talons. It's a story about the things that hunt in the darkness. About the creatures that exist outside our understanding of the natural world.About the price of seeing something impossible and having to carry that knowledge for forty years.The Van Meter Visitor is real. It never left. And this is the encounter that proves it.

What happens when you actually follow your gut and reach out to people doing the work? This week, Kelly finds out this week, sitting down with two thoughtful, genuinely kind humans who are quietly reshaping how we talk about the UFO phenomenon. Roz and Dan discuss why women in these spaces still get push back for, well, existing, how representation matters when we're trying to understand something bigger than ourselves, the surprising overlap between consciousness, spirituality, and close encounters, why indigenous voices are being drowned out by military ones, meditation as a gateway to mediumship, Marian apparitions and what they might actually mean, the miracle of Fatima, why horror movies prove women always have the answers, and a deeply personal encounter story that Dan carries with him.   Also: Tom DeLonge's new book, the Nag Hammadi texts, meditation headbands that measure brain waves, the divine feminine energy showing up everywhere lately, Nancy Drew, and why listening to what makes you uncomfortable might be the key to understanding everything.   WHAT IT MEANS TO BE HUMAN http://tobehumanshow.com  -Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/what-it-means-to-be-human/id1838722392 -YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@tobehumanshow -Instagram: @tobehumanshow_ Dan Zetterström -Instagram: @thezignal -X/Twitter: @TheZignal Roz Mugford -Instagram: @rozwelll_   Patreon ⇒     http://patreon.com/frightday      TikTok ⇒     http://tiktok.com/frightdaypodcast     Spotify ⇒  https://open.spotify.com/show/14ioP0z...

Your stories of the unexplained!

October 31, 2025. Dr. Victoria Claire has commissioned more than 200 sculptures, received an honorary doctorate, and is pursuing a PhD. She talks with host Ben Shaberman about her journey with retinitis pigmentosa, and how blindness has provided her with new and profound insights into herself and perceiving the world. Visitors to her current exhibition, "The Sense of Sculpture" (Oct. 18 - Nov. 1) at The Art House in Wakefield, England, are interacting with her sculptures tactilely in complete darkness.

In small-town Minnesota, a 16-year-old girl named Rebecca sees a pale figure staring out from her bedroom window — a young woman with white hair and a sorrowful face. No one is inside. All doors are locked. But years later, when Rebecca discovers that the man she once dated was arrested for a brutal assault and murder, she realizes the apparition wasn't a threat… it was a warning. The mysterious “woman in white” may have been a guardian spirit, appearing to steer her away from a deadly fate. Then, hundreds of miles away in New Mexico, Dustin visits a reservation site haunted by tragedy — the place where a boy ended his own life inside a rusted tractor. Visitors report seeing his ghost sitting on nearby boulders, blank-eyed and silent, watching as they drive past. But when Dustin climbed into the tractor himself, the spirit appeared beside him — full-bodied, expressionless, and impossibly real. Two different lives. Two restless souls. Both reminders that sometimes, the dead still have something to say — whether it's to protect us… or to make sure we remember them. #trueghoststory #hauntedplaces #womaninwhite #realhaunting #paranormalactivity #ghostencounter #realparanormal #creepystory #ghoststories #guardianangel Love real ghost stories?

A rare and extraordinary traveler is moving through our skies — the interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS, only the third known object ever to enter our solar system from beyond the stars. Blending science and spirit, Laurie explores the deeper meaning behind this celestial visitor, whose hyperbolic path, unique carbon-rich chemistry, and luminous tail reveal both astronomical wonder and metaphysical insight. As ATLAS approaches its closest point to the Sun in late October 2025, it becomes a living metaphor for humanity's own awakening — reminding us that transformation often comes from what briefly passes through, ignites our light, and then moves on.Through the lens of astrology and numerology, Laurie connects the comet's arrival to the closing of a Universal Year 9 and the birth of a Universal Year 1, signaling a collective rebirth and expansion of galactic consciousness. She weaves in planetary influences — Pluto in Aquarius, Uranus in Taurus, Neptune entering Aries — to illustrate how this moment calls us to release the frozen parts of our being and embody a higher octave of awareness.More than an astronomical event, 3I/ATLAS is a cosmic initiation — a mirror for our evolution from the Earth-bound to the galactic. It invites us to awaken what has been dormant, breathe with the stars, and remember that we, too, are travelers of light — messengers of consciousness moving through the vastness, leaving our own radiant trails across the human sky.Send us a textSupport the showThanks for listening - For questions or comments email Laurie at Laurie@yourlifecore.comInstagram @yourlifecore or Twitter @yourlifecore Facebook https://www.facebook.com/YourLifecoreWebsite www.yourlifecore.com

A visitor from far beyond the solar system is getting better acquainted with the Sun this week. Tomorrow, it’ll make its closest approach to the Sun – just 126 million miles. After that, it’ll head back toward interstellar space. The visitor is 3I/ATLAS. It was discovered on July 1st by an automated telescope that looks for comets and asteroids. Calculations of its orbit quickly showed that it came from outside the solar system. That makes it the third known visitor from interstellar space. It originated in the galaxy’s “thick disk.” That’s a region that sandwiches our part of the disk. It contains stars that are far older than the Sun. Estimates say 3I/ATLAS could be three billion years older than the solar system, so it could preserve a chemical record of an earlier era in galactic history. 3I/ATLAS is a comet – a ball of rock and frozen gases a few miles in diameter. As it’s closed in on the Sun, some of its gas has vaporized, releasing bits of dust as well. Observations will reveal the composition of this material, telling astronomers about conditions in the region where it formed. Unfortunately, astronomers can’t see 3I/ATLAS at all right now – it’s hidden in the Sun’s glare. It’ll return to view in December – but only when viewed through a telescope. It’ll pass closest to Earth on December 19th – almost 170 million miles away. Script by Damond Benningfield

Flute 360 | Episode 347: "Inside the Musical Instrument Museum — Dr. Eddie Hsu on Global Flutes & Cultural Storytelling" In this Flute 360 episode, Dr. Heidi Kay Begay sits down with Dr. Eddie Hsu, Curator for Asia & Oceania at the Musical Instrument Museum (MIM) in Phoenix, Arizona. Together, they explore MIM's new exhibition, "The Magical Flute: Beauty, Enchantment & Power," and talk about the global story of the flute — from 8,000-year-old bone flutes to modern instruments. Dr. Hsu shares how flutes carry cultural storytelling, spiritual meaning, ceremony, identity, and breath across continents. You'll also hear live demonstrations of the Chinese bamboo flute (dizi), the Arabic ney, and the Indigenous Taiwanese nose flute. If you're curious about global flutes, ethnomusicology, and how museums preserve musical voice and tradition, this conversation is for you. What You'll Learn: How the Musical Instrument Museum curates a global flute exhibition and tells the story of the flute across cultures and time. Why so many cultures see the flute as a spiritual or magical voice — not just an instrument. How breath, ritual, mourning, prayer, love, and identity are expressed through flutes around the world. What makes instruments like the dizi, ney, and traditional nose flute unique in sound and purpose. How visitors can experience "The Magical Flute: Beauty, Enchantment & Power" at MIM through sound, video, story, and live performance.

You're getting traffic to your website. People are clicking around, spending time there—but your inbox stays empty. No contact forms filled out, no calls booked, nothing. So you think, "I just need more visitors, right?" Wrong. The problem isn't traffic—it's that your website is quietly pushing people away before they reach out. There are four website silent killers turning interested visitors into ghosts: confusion, overwhelm, distrust, and friction.In this episode, I'm breaking down exactly what each of these website silent killers looks like in practice and how they're costing you clients without you even realizing it. We'll explore why someone might land on your site genuinely interested but leave without taking action, and more importantly, what you can do to fix it. These aren't design problems—they're messaging, strategy, and user experience problems that you can actually address without a complete website overhaul.__________________________________________EPISODE 167.Read the show notes and view the full transcript here: https://erinollila.com/4-website-silent-killers-that-make-visitors-ghost-you/______________________________________________Here's the info on your host, Erin OllilaErin Ollila believes in the power of words and how a message can inform – and even transform – its intended audience.

The first of our two guests tonight is Jessie from Minnesota, USA. After losing her beloved dog, Jessie turned to the CIA's Gateway Process meditation searching for comfort, and instead opened a doorway to something far stranger. What began as moments of peace soon gave way to visions of crystal spiders and encounters with shadowed figures that seemed to watch from beyond the veil. Then we move on to Soumil in Nashik, India. In a quiet village beside the backwaters of a dam, a still night beneath the stars became extraordinary when two silent objects flew in perfect tandem above the water. Years later, after a near-fatal stroke, Soumil found himself visited by three magenta-robed beings in the ICU, figures that seemed to heal him in silence.More information on this episode on the podcast website:https://ufochroniclespodcast.com/ep-356-in-the-stillness-of-night/The Gateway Intermediate Workbook:Link to the document itself is 21-page version released via the CIA's FOIA archives. https://cia.gov/readingroom/docs/cia-rdp96-00788r001700210023-7.pdHidden Cults (Promo)It is a documentary-style podcast that digs deep into the world's most extreme, elusive, and explosive fringe groups.
