Every soldier has a story. Some, they try to forget. Others, they can’t stop thinking about – stories that no one else would believe happened. Something that terrified them. Something they cannot explain.

From Ballen Studios, and hosted by Marine Corp Reconnaissance veteran, Luke Lamana, this is Wartime Stories. A weekly podcast that is a mix of horror, mystery, and awe inspiring tales. Where the strange, dark & mysterious meets the battlefield and beyond. 

New episodes every Monday.

Wartime Stories

The sounds of the forest are a language any seasoned outdoorsman can understand, a familiar rhythm of life and survival. But for two veterans on opposite sides of the country, that language became a weapon turned against them, as they were stalked by a massive creature that could perfectly mimic the calls of lesser animals to draw its human prey into the dark.

Stalked by Bigfoot

In the desolate Mojave Desert, Edwards Air Force Base is home to America's most advanced and secretive aircraft, a place where the boundaries of technology are pushed daily. But according to chilling eyewitness accounts from service members, the greatest secrets aren't in the sky, but on the ground... where a massive, hairy, ape-like creature has been seen stalking the restricted military installation.

The vast, empty deserts of New Mexico became the proving grounds for America's nuclear arsenal, a landscape of secrets and strange phenomena.

Documented Military Reports of Vampires

The Winter War was a brutal struggle against a determined human enemy and the unforgiving cold, dangers the Red Army knew and understood. Yet on a desolate mountain plateau, where strange stone idols stand guard and the trees twist in agony, a Soviet company learned that some places are battlegrounds for forces far older and more monstrous than man.

They Shouldn't Have Invaded Finland

For a soldier on guard duty, the mind can wander, but the senses must remain sharp for any sign of the enemy. Imagine the chilling confusion, then, when the figure that emerges from the darkness is not a Viet Cong fighter, but the impossible specter of a Roman soldier, speaking a dead language to deliver an eternal warning.

Something In My Room

The rules of engagement are clear when facing another army, but they are useless against a more primal foe.

The Devil's Food

On the frozen battlefields of the Korean War, American soldiers faced down the overwhelming force of the Chinese army. But for one company of infantrymen, the true enemy was not human; it was a silent, glowing orb that toyed with their artillery before unleashing a terrifying weapon of its own.

Project Blue Book

For the people of 16th-century Europe, the sky was a place of divine mystery, not a battlefield for mortal men. But in 1566, the heavens over Basel, Switzerland, became just that, as hundreds of dark spheres waged a mysterious war before the eyes of the citizens below.

Long before it was a military training area, the land of CFB Meaford was home to sprawling farmsteads and the quiet lives of pioneer families.
