Water Babies of Cannon Beach with a Side of The Bandage Man22 Feb 202500:17:37

Back in September of 2024, a friend tag me in the commentssection of an Instagram Reel with the comment quote “Have you heard of this?? Sounds gnarly” unquote and I was immediately intrigued.

The reel was creepy, dark, unsettling and it had my Spideysenses tingling.

Due to my obsession with all things strange and unusual, there are very few urban legends or local haunts that I have not heard about. But they are out there. So, when something like this reel comes into my consciousness, I am drawn to find out more.

In today’s episode, I am going to deep dive into an urbantale that is finding its ways out of the corners of the internet and into our collective hive mind.

Have you heard of the Water Babies of Cannon Beach?

And what do you know about The Bandage Man of Highway 101?

Houdini vs. Spiritualism01 Jan 202500:48:18

In this episode, I am going to explore the second half of Harry Houdini’s life mission. Utilizing his knowledge of illusion and magic, Harry Houdini made it his personal agenda to expose the fakes, frauds and charlatans of the American spiritualism movement of the early 1900’s.

How well do you think you know Harry Houdini?

Madame Marie Laveau, Voodoo Queen of New Orleans06 May 202200:47:37

In today’s episode, I will be sharing what I have learned about Madame Marie Laveau. Madame Laveau has such a presence in our collective consciousness that even those who know very little about the mystical arts know her name. This exploration has taken me back into my studies on voodoo, and brought to light some of the truths about this powerful woman, and her spiritual practice, that can only be found if you dive below the surface of the head lines.

The Bamberg Witch Trials - Part 106 Aug 202100:28:44
By the year 1627, the European Witch Trials had come to their peak when the Prince Bishop of Bamberg , initiated the construction of the Malefitzhaus; the largest and most well known Prison in Germany to house those accused of witchcraft. This building became the most brutal witch prison to be erected during the ongoing witch frenzies that spread across Europe between the fourteenth and seventeenth centuries. There would be tales of false accusations leading to the most horrific torture and public deaths recorded in those times outside of war. The most chilling part about this tale from the past is that the Bamberg Witch Commission was the most ruthless of them all, and almost no one was safe from being accused of being in a league with the Devil. By the time the third wave of witch trials had ended in the town of Bamberg, Germany, over 40% of the men, women and children where accused of black magic, tortured, and burned at the stake. In Part 1 of my 2 part exploration of the Bamberg Witch trials, I will cover what lead to the most horrific witch trials and executions that Europe has witness in the Holy Roman Empire of medieval Europe.

In the second part to my exploration of Aleister Crowley’s life and writings, I will be covering the years 1900 to Crowley’s death in 1947. This will take us through his creation of his own magick society, his failed relationships and what would become of the most notorious occult practitioner of the 20th century.

Aleister Crowley, Part 1; 1875-190014 Mar 202100:46:40

Aleister Crowley is one of the most documented occult practitioners in all of history. Many consider Crowley a powerful visionary and gifted magician of ceremonial and sexual magic, Others consider Aleister Crowley one of the most vile and perverse humans to walk the earth.

In part one of this two part exploration of Aleister Crowley’s life, I am going to cover the years 1875-1900. Who was Crowley before he was known as The Wickedest Man in the world? Part One will cover Crowley’s upbringing, his collage years and eventual initiation into his first occult society known as The Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn.

Dr. Charles Camsell Hospital; Stained Grounds 01 Feb 202100:48:36

Back in 1946, The Dr. Charles Camsell Indian Hospital opened up in the capitol city of Edmonton, Alberta. 

Today, an empty building is all that stands. Local urban legends say the halls of the old Camsell hospital are haunted with the wandering souls of the patients the doctors and staff at Camsell were supposed to heal. 

Some haunted places on this earth are created due to human intervention and crimes against humanity. Today's episode covers just such a place. I will be covering a dark time in Canada's history, and how the Camsell segregated hospital played a role in the attempted sterilization and genocide of the aboriginal cultures of the Canadian Inuk, Inuit, other First Nations Peoples.

Krampus; The Darker Christmas Spirit23 Dec 202000:22:44

Santa Clause is finalizing his list, and he’s checking it twice as we approach the end of December. This list is well known to children of all ages. As the days get closer and closer to the 25th, children around the globe pray they end up being rewarded with gifts and sweets for all their good deeds preformed through the year. A child who lands on the infamous Naughty list is said to receive nothing but a lump of coal in their stocking; this being the common westernized belief of today. 

It was not always like this. Did you know that in many parts of the world, Santa Claus is known as Saint Nicolas. And, Saint Nicolas travels with a companion spirit. This companion spirit is much darker, and is known as the one who takes care of the children who find themselves on St. Nick’s naughty list. The origins of this spirit pre dates Christianity, and is still celebrated today in the alpine villages of central Europe. They call this spirit Krampus, and he comes armed with birch reeds, and an empty sack to fill up with the wicked children of the world. 

In this episode, I will share with you what I have learned about the Krampus’ ancient origins, what Hollywood has to say and how this anthropomorphic being is celebrated in the 21 century.

The Philip Experiment02 Dec 202000:28:00

In this episode, I explore the ancient Tibetan belief of the Sprul Pa; the ability to conjuring spirits with the mind. This ancient belief inspired a Canadian mathematician to form a parapsychology group designed to test this theory. The documentation of this group is now known as The Philip Experiment.

Salt - Superstition and Magic20 Oct 202000:33:32

Salt has a long and interesting history in our collective consciousness. Superstitions began appearing as early as the text of the Sumerians, and are connected to bad luck and demons. Many varieties of salt are use today, including one that has a strong connection to magic and protection. Have you ever heard of Black Witches Salt??

In today's episode of The Dark Side of Lightwork I will explore salt! The superstitions, health benefits and magical properties of a common ingredient that we take for granted in today's click and deliver lifestyle.

The Scole Experiment into Physical Mediumship Part Two - The Scole Report29 May 202300:38:17

In Part Two of my three part exploration of the Scole Experimental Group, I will be sharing what I have learned about The Scole Report.

A lengthy case study documenting two years of sessions taking place within the Scole Hole. This report was complied and organized by members of one of the oldest paranormal investigative societies in the UK. The Society of Psychical Research.

Let’s dive into what this group had to say about whether or not The Foy’s, Bennett’s and other members in the Scole Group are 100% legit or just modern day charlatans.

The Scole Experimental Group into Physical Mediumship PART ONE24 Feb 202300:54:44

In part one of a three part exploration, I am going to share what I have learned about The Scole Experimental Group. Toted as being one of the most successful investigations into the existence of life after death, The Scole Group has an intriguing case study into the world of physical mediumship that hadn’t openly been explored since the 1930’s. More than lights flickering or thumps on the walls, this group is said to have manifested a full bodied apparitions of the members of the spirit team they called the spirit scientists.

Origins of the Tarot20 Dec 202200:22:44

In today’s episode, I will be sharing the very basics of what you need to know about the tarot. I found it interesting how much illegitimate knowledge is still being spread about this style of cards.

Codex Gigas; The Devil's Bible23 Sep 202200:39:39

In today’s episode, I am going to share what I have learned about the Codex Gigas. Over the last 800 years, this massive book has intrigued those who have had the chance to view it in person. Superstitious warnings and supernatural tales are linked to the Codex Gigas. It is even said that one of the books past owners had developed an unhealthy obsession with it.

According to legend, the monk who is credited for producing this massive text actually had help in its creation. It is said that when God wouldn’t answer the monks calls for help, he prayed for the assistance of another. And It was the Devil who stepped forward to answer his call.

Garnet Ghost Town, Montana, USA14 Jul 202200:40:30

In today’s episode, I will be exploring what I have found out about Garnet Montana. This historical mining town is a well known destination for ghost town enthusiasts. But it is also becoming well known in the circles of those attracted to the strange and unusual. There are some articles out there that claim it is challenging to get volunteers to commit to living in Garnet for one reason; and this is due to the reports of paranormal activity.

The Whaley House; A Case Study into Residual Hauntings18 Sep 202500:48:55

In today’s episode, I will be exploring the idea of residual energy, natural earth energies and how this combination can influence what become known as hauntedplaces. I will be using one of the most talked about houses in The United States as a case study. This house has officially been crowned the most haunted house in America. Not only by public opinion, but also by the California Chamberof Commerce. Have you heard of The Whaley House?
