Episode 205.5: Listener Stories #32

SKIP TO 00:18:15 TO GET TO THIS WEEK’S STORY
Some of the most beloved Christmas traditions are derivative of Pagan Winter Solstice practices; However, what can be said about that jolly bearded man donning a red suit, led by a band of magical flying reindeer? Where exactly did Santa Claus come from and who or what is he? In the final conspiracy themed episode of the 2024 season, Nat pushes Aly headfirst into a task most are too afraid to tackle: the Santa Claus Conspiracy. For this Christmas special, we will prove that Jolly Old St. Nicholas is in fact a real guy with a real team of magical reindeer that will absolutely be flying to your home on Christmas Eve...that is unless you have been naughty!

BONUS! Season 6 Finale Q&A

SKIP TO 00:4:00 TO GET TO THIS WEEK’S EPISODE
 
It’s the Season 7 Premiere!! Welcome, Haunties, to “Episode 207: The Alien Photo That Shut Down 4Chan”. On February 22, 2017, a photograph supposedly depicting an alien was posted to 4Chan’s paranormal board, /x/. The post was entitled “24489 Taken approximately 24 miles northwest of Luke Air Force Base Phoenix Arizona Lab H4C”. The picture was online for no more than 30-60 seconds at most before, without warning, the entire 4Chan website crashed and went offline. Since then, hundreds of threads have sprang forth on Reddit, 4Chan, Facebook, Quora, Instagram, TikTok, and more as internet sleuths try to track down the photo and determine its legitimacy. Join us on this wild season opener as we fall down an internet rabbit hole, examine potential recreations of the photo, and even interview a 4Channer who was there when the original post went down!

The Hotel Zaza collection prides itself on offering luxury and upscale ambiance as part of their guest experience... So why is Room 322 described as a tiny “goth dungeon closet” adorned with missing carpet, creepy skull art, handmade paintings, chains, a random framed executive’s business headshot, and a possible two-way mirror? Join us this week as Nat razzle dazzles Aly with a PowerPoint Presentation that leaves us all wondering, “What’s up with Room 322?”

Episode 208: Hotel Zaza Room 322

Welcome to “Episode 209: The Red Ghost”. In Eagle Rock, Arizona 1883, a woman was trampled to death by what was described as a hoofed beast with red hair being ridden by a devilish skeleton cowboy. Decades passed, and more sightings of the fearsome specter were observed throughout Arizona. Some claimed the creature flew, others claimed it trampled all who stood in its way, and still others thought it might be the Devil himself or one of his horsemen, but when the mystery was finally solved in the 1890s, the truth would prove to be stranger than fiction. Join us on this Wild West adventure as we dissect the tall tale of “The Red Ghost”.

Episode 210.5: Listener Stories #33

Welcome to Episode 211: Neanderthal on a Stick aka the Belarusian Bigfoot! Belarus is a landlocked country with a rich history and even richer folklore. Famous for its flat terrain with over 11,000 lakes and 20,000 rivers, the country is perhaps best known for its vast forests which cover about 40% of the nation. Inside these forests and bodies of water, a multitude of folkloric entities are known to lurk, such as: Leshy, rusalki, hartsuks, zheuzhyk, Lazavik, Zlydzens, and much, much more. But in August of 2012, a Belarusian man named Alexander met with something that left him altogether puzzled. Join us as we learn about the “Neanderthal on a stick” aka “The Belarusian Bigfoot”.

Episode 211: The Belarusian Bigfoot (Neanderthal on a Stick)

Led by a fearless Ernest Shackleton, the goal of this expedition is nothing short of legendary: to be the first humans to cross the entire Antarctic continent and reach the South Pole! But what follows would be anything but expected. This is not only an unimaginable tale of survival and isolation, but it’s also a warning of supernatural phenomena that haunts the planet’s least populated continent, even today. Is Antarctica empty because of a harsh climate and lonely location, or is there something else more sinister keeping humanity away? Today’s episode will divulge all of The Shackleton Expedition’s findings- haunted survival records, ghosts, aliens, the occult, and even a Nazi conspiracy theory—this is one trip you will never forget. Buckle up kids because today we are talking about The Ernest Shackleton Expedition!
