Bigfoot of Appalachia Part II

mardi 6 février 2024 • Durée 18:13

Somehow several hours of research and a decently lengthy script led to an 18 minute episode. I'm not sure how that happened unless I really talk that fast.

Continuing on with last episode's Bigfoot / Sasquatch info, this episode we delve into the folkloric Bigfoot creatures that are regional-specific, as well as into theories and ideas about who Bigfoot is and where our most famous cryptid may have come from.

Bigfoot of Appalachia Part I

mardi 23 janvier 2024 • Durée 19:31

TW: No triggers I can see.

Bigfoot is Appalachia's most well-known cryptid. Probably the entire US, really. How have I made it this long without making an episode about the big, hairy guy himself? Part I of this two parter gives some Bigfoot basics, like a very brief overview on his appearance, his supposed communication methods, and territorial markings believed to be displayed by the Sasquatch. Then I go into a few Appalachian-based Bigfoot sightings. One of which is a full story from the witness, the others are synopses of the encounters. This is overall a research episode, not a story based one. Overall for a cryptid his lore is more cryptozoological rather than paranormal.

I'm eager for next episode when we can talk about some of the absolute insanity that are the theories on his origin.

Appalachian Folklore

mardi 19 septembre 2023 • Durée 28:50

Today's episode is a bit of a lighter one, focusing on Appalachian folklore. Tons of superstitions, omens, and general haint prevention filtered in to early Appalachian culture via the Scotch-Irish, German, and African settlers. Much of this folklore is still present in the area to this day and greatly influences daily life and belief.

The Crawler

mardi 5 septembre 2023 • Durée 35:01

The Crawler is a lesser known cryptid from Appalachia and beyond that is lanky, pale, and skitters around on hands and feet. This is a story compilation of three peoples' experiences with this cryptid. Some by non-believers in the paranormal, which you know I'm all about.

TW: Animal injury (not graphic or severe), human injury by a cryptid, guns.

[Summer Hiatus Announcement]

mardi 20 juin 2023 • Durée 00:58

Please forgive the not so awesome audio in this announcement, we've had pouring rain all day that loved to act up while the microphone was on.

I have to take a short break while summer vacation is in its midst because parenting and podcasting don't exactly mix. But I'm aiming for a mid-August return for more spooky stories from Appalachia for y'all.

Patrons will still continue to receive bonus content throughout the hiatus.

Maple Hill Cemetery & Dead Children's Playground

mardi 6 juin 2023 • Durée 26:04

It was fun to go to western Appalachia for this Huntsville episode. Maple Hill Cemetery is so enormous and historical it sounds fun to go even if you disregard the stories of hauntings. And Dead Children's Playground sounds so intriguing.

TW: Brief mentions of death, because it is about a cemetery. Mentions of death by poisoning. Overall a pretty tame episode, trigger wise.

The Shopping Cart Killer

Anthony Robinson, deemed The Shopping Cart Killer, has been linked to at least five murders and a suspected sixth, but he could have countless victims throughout Appalachia and the upper east coast. This case is ongoing, but it's an important one, as more potential victims are still out there.

Anyone with information about this case, or any information about Robinson, including those he met through dating apps, should call Fairfax County PD’s Major Crimes Division at 703-246-7800. Those with anonymous tips can call 1-866-411-TIPS.

TW: Murder, sadism, sexual violence.

Waverly Hills Sanatorium

mardi 9 mai 2023 • Durée 26:03

I'd recommend y'all check out the Ghost Hunters episode at Waverly Hills. I know, I know, I suspect TV shows often feel the need to have an experience happen for footage. But at least they're skeptical enough that I feel like it's a good start?

TW: Mentions of suicide, mass casualties from illness.

Glitch in the Matrix Part II

mardi 25 avril 2023 • Durée 39:20

Y'all, the stories in the last episode were so intriguing I couldn't help but do a part two. Understanding a bit about the theories behind these glitches doesn't help me very much with understanding just how these things can happen. The stories themselves are just so abstract!

TW: Descriptions of accidents and mentions of death.
