Believing the Bizarre: Paranormal Conspiracies & Myths
The North Canol Road Alien Abduction
The North Canol Road Alien Abduction This week, we journey to the remote wilderness of Yukon, Canada, to explore the North Canal Road alien abduction case from 1987. We follow Kevin, a seasoned outdoorsman who set out on what should have been a routine three-day moose hunting expedition on his motorcycle. What started as a simple trip through the desolate terrain quickly transformed into something far more extraordinary when Kevin encountered a mysterious cigar-shaped craft and two insectoid beings he described as "grasshopper people." What makes this case particularly compelling is Kevin's 13-year silence and the physical evidence he discovered afterward - including unexplained scoop-like marks on his palms and memories that slowly resurfaced over time. We explore the psychological impact of his experience, from the initial sighting to the missing hours and fragmented memories of what occurred during his alleged abduction. ⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠: Support Believing the Bizarre and get tons of extra content by joining our Patreon.

Haunted Schools: Part 1
This week, we dive into the dark hallways and shadowy corners of America's most haunted schools just as students head back to class. We explore two particularly eerie Schools: Pocatello High School in Idaho, where urban legends tell of a tragic suicide pact from the 1940s-50s that left one girl hanging from the top lockers (which were subsequently removed), and a ghostly wet child who supposedly drowned in the school's former pool. The campus is also known for phantom piano music echoing through an empty auditorium and unsettling sounds from the theater's changing rooms. Then we discuss the much more historically documented El Paso High School in Texas, built in 1916 over underground tunnels that once served as a morgue during the Spanish flu epidemic. With alleged deaths on campus, sealed-off rooms discovered years later, and even a mysterious figure appearing in a 1985 school photograph, this institution has a deeply troubling past. We also share two compelling anonymous stories from Reddit - one involving a Catholic preschool next to an 1800s cemetery where staff regularly encounter a spirit they call "Mary," and another from an Ohio behavioral school with such intense paranormal activity that it's now being demolished.

Get 60% off the Magic Mind offer with our link https://magicmind.com/bizarremf or code BIZARRE60 upon checkout. #magicmind #mentalwealth #mentalperformance Our first story comes from Baker in Nebraska, who experienced some truly terrifying encounters while working as a lifeguard at what can only be described as a haunted pool facility. From feeling constantly watched while cleaning locker rooms to hearing mysterious conversations and footsteps when alone, Baker's experiences escalated dramatically after the staff started treating their CPR training mannequin, Fred, like a real person. Our second story takes us on a decades-long journey with Tara and her family, spanning from 2001 to 2024 across multiple homes in Texas. What began as a dream house purchase - complete with two acres and a backyard creek - quickly turned into a nightmare when neighbors warned them that "no one stays together in this house." We explore the escalating paranormal activity that seemed to center around Tara's mother, from shadow figures and putrid smells to physical attacks and one of the most unsettling doppelganger encounters we've ever heard. ⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠: Support Believing the Bizarre and get tons of extra content by joining our Patreon.

Terrified Together with Drinking the Koolaid
We're thrilled to share our second official "Terrified Together," , where we welcomed Amanda and Cassidy from Drinking the Koolaid for some creepy listener submission stories. Our first tale comes from Reagan, who experienced something truly unsettling during a seventh-grade school trip to the notoriously haunted Savannah, Georgia. What started as an innocent exploration of a small cemetery near their log cabin accommodations took a dark turn. Our second story transported us to rural Texas in 2020, where Sabrina's routine drive home from babysitting her nephew became anything but ordinary. Strange lights pursued her car at impossible speeds, followed by a mysterious loss of time and unexplained physical symptoms. We wrapped up with Ben's lifelong encounters in Montana, beginning with childhood visits from what he called "The Stomp Dance girls" and escalating to shadow figures and mysterious dancing lights in his bedroom.

Mimics
Mimic Cryptids and Creatures This week we discuss mimics - creatures that disguise themselves by imitating the voices and appearances of our loved ones. We explore the umbrella term of "mimic" and break down the various cryptids that fall under this category, from the familiar doppelgangers and skinwalkers to the lesser-known but equally disturbing Fleshgait and False Humans. These entities are said to lurk in forests, particularly around the Appalachian Mountains, using their supernatural abilities to lure unsuspecting victims by perfectly replicating the voices of family members and friends calling out from the darkness. We also share five creepy encounters from Reddit users who've experienced these deceptive creatures firsthand, including stories from Tennessee cabins, Minneapolis parks, and remote Montana wilderness. From hearing a sister's voice calling from outside while she sits right next to you, to a boyfriend's doppelganger appearing bedside with unnaturally wide eyes, these accounts are sure to give you some chills!

The Demonic Possession of David Glatzel and Arne Johnson
The Demonic Possession of David Glatzel and Arne Johnson This week we dive into one of the most terrifying possession cases in American history - the haunting of the Glatzel family in 1980s Connecticut. When the family moved into what seemed like an innocent rental home in Brookfield, they had no idea they were stepping into a nightmare that would tear their lives apart. It all began when 11-year-old David was violently pushed by an unseen force while cleaning his new bedroom, coming face-to-face with a grotesque demonic entity with coal-black eyes and melting skin. What followed were months of escalating supernatural terror - mysterious whispers, vanishing medicine bottles, unexplained scratches appearing on David's body, and the boy speaking in foreign tongues while contorting his body in impossible ways. The situation reached a breaking point when renowned paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren were called in, bringing multiple priests to perform what would become a series of harrowing exorcisms. But during the final ritual, David's sister's boyfriend Arne Johnson made a fateful decision that would change everything - he challenged the demon to take him instead of the boy. Months later, this act of apparent heroism would lead to the first recorded homicide in Brookfield's history and result in the first-ever legal defense of "demonic possession" in an American courtroom - infamously becoming "the devil made me do it."

The Cursed Civil War Land
Our first tale comes from Ava in Newfoundland, Canada, who experienced something truly unsettling during a late-night phone call with friends in early 2022. What started as typical teenage conversation quickly turned into a nightmare when mysterious footsteps, slamming doors, and the sound of objects being moved around began echoing through her house. Both Ava and her sister heard these disturbances, but each thought the other was responsible - until they realized neither of them was making the noise, and their parents were fast asleep. Our second story takes us on a decades-spanning journey with Amy, whose encounters with the paranormal have followed her across multiple homes from Virginia to Tennessee. Growing up on Civil War battlefields where cannonballs and bullets still surface in backyards, Amy's family has dealt with whispers in the night, mysterious scratches that draw blood, and furniture that rearranges itself in menacing ways. From her childhood home in rural Virginia through her family's cursed farmland to her current residence in Tennessee, we explore how historical trauma might leave lasting impressions on the land itself.

The Revenge of Resurrection Mary
The Revenge of Resurrection Mary Our first story comes from a Sophia in Kentucky, who's been dealing with paranormal activity since childhood - from mysterious balls rolling out from under beds to voices echoing through empty rooms. But things take a terrifying turn when she experiences physical attacks, including being grabbed by unseen hands while sleeping, and witnesses her boyfriend's face distorting before her very eyes. We also explore Logan's fascinating encounters from Chicago, starting with an incredible UFO sighting he witnessed with his father and brother while relaxing in their hot tub. Two glowing oval crafts appeared overhead, hovering silently before vanishing with explosive sounds that left the family stunned. But Logan's connection to the paranormal doesn't end there - his family has had multiple mysterious car breakdowns at the exact same spot near Resurrection Cemetery, spanning decades and involving three generations.

The Allagash Alien Abduction
The Allagash Alien Abductions This week, we dive deep into one of the most compelling alien abduction cases of the 1970s - the Allagash incident. Four college friends from the Massachusetts College of Art and Design embarked on what should have been a relaxing week-long canoeing expedition through the remote wilderness of northern Maine. What started as a fun outdoor adventure quickly turned into something far more sinister when they encountered mysterious lights in the pitch-black sky above Eagle Lake. The story takes an even stranger turn when years later, the men began experiencing shared nightmares that felt disturbingly real. Through hypnotic regression therapy, they uncovered suppressed memories of being taken aboard an otherworldly craft and subjected to painful examinations by gray-skinned entities with metallic eyes.

Gnomes
In this episode of Believing the Bizarre, we dive deep into the mysterious world of gnomes - those diminutive creatures that might be hiding in plain sight as innocent lawn ornaments. We explore the fascinating history behind these legendary beings, tracing their origins from ancient Roman garden statues of fertility gods to the Swiss alchemist Paracelsus, who classified them as earth elementals. Along the way, we uncover the surprising connection between modern garden gnomes and actual hermits that wealthy landowners once hired to live in their yards, complete with pointed hats and robes, serving wine and dispensing wisdom to visitors. Get 60% off Magic Mind here with our link and code: https://magicmind.com/bizarreEDU & BIZARRE60#magicmind #mentalperformance We share three compelling modern Reddit encounters, including a mushroom hunter's shocking discovery in a national forest and mysterious kitchen disturbances that reveal more than expected.

Terrified Together with... Scared All the Time Podcast
In our inaugural episode of "Terrified Together," we partnered with Chris and Ed from "Scared All the Time Podcast" to dive into spine-chilling listener submissions that had us questioning reality itself. We kicked things off with Taylor's haunting tale from Marietta, Ohio - a 21-year-old who bought what seemed like the perfect starter home, only to discover it came with some very unwelcome residents. From mysterious footsteps in a locked attic to pets behaving in ways that would make any animal lover's blood run cold, Taylor's experience had us all leaning into our mics with genuine concern and fascination. Our second story transported us across the pond to Ireland, where our listener Carrie Anne's life took a dramatic turn after an innocent hike in the mountains of Sligo. What started as a family walk through familiar terrain became something far more sinister when she encountered an ancient stone monument and made the fateful decision to explore a forbidden fairy fort.

The Tragic Demonic Investigation
In this chilling episode of Believing the Bizarre, we dive into two haunting tales that'll make you question what lurks in the shadows. First, we explore Kay's family home in Pennsylvania, where for thirteen years they endured relentless paranormal activity. From mysterious voices calling out from empty rooms to unexplained tugging at feet and hands, this suburban house seemed determined to make its presence known. The most unsettling revelation? Those voices Kaye heard calling her name may not have been coming from downstairs at all, but from something much closer to home. Our second story takes a dramatically darker turn with Anthony's submission about his paranormal investigation group, the Midnight Men. What started as a simple case to help an old friend spiraled into something far more sinister than anyone could have imagined. When a seasoned medium abruptly cut all ties after meeting the affected family, it should have been a red flag. Instead, Anthony and his team pressed forward, only to discover that some entities don't wait for you to visit them – they come to you first. This tragic tale serves as a sobering reminder that in the world of paranormal investigation, there are forces that even the most experienced shouldn't dare to challenge.

Cursed Games: Part 5
Cursed Games and Rituals: Part 5This week, we explore three eerie cursed games that blur the line between ritual and entertainment.We first discuss the Binoculars Game (also known as Eye Spy), where participants must secure a friend with rope while searching for a mysterious approaching figure through windows.Next, we delve into Cat Scratch, a seemingly innocent party game where one person lies with their head in another's lap while hearing a creepy story, potentially resulting in unexplained scratch marks appearing on their back.We also discuss the Witch's Window ritual, which involves setting up a mirror with candles and salt to communicate with spirits from the beyond. This particular game requires specific safety precautions to ensure you're only creating a "window" rather than a "door" for entities to pass through.As with all our cursed games episodes, we emphasize that while these rituals might seem far-fetched, we don't endorse trying them yourself - the line between skepticism and genuine paranormal experience often blurs when you're sitting alone in the dark, following strange instructions that might invite something unexpected into your world.Patreon: Support Believing the Bizarre and get tons of extra content by joining our Patreon.For updates, news, and extra content, follow Believing the Bizarre on social media:InstagramFacebookTwitterDiscordShop Merch: You can rep Believing the Bizarre and buy some unique merchWant to send BTB something?

The Teke Teke and 8 Foot Tall Woman
The Japanese Teke Teke and 8 Foot Tall WomanIn this episode, we explore two fascinating Japanese Yokai legends: the Teke Teke and the Hachishakusama (Eight-Foot-Tall Woman).The Teke Teke is the vengeful spirit of a schoolgirl who was bullied, fell onto train tracks, and was cut in half by a train. Now she drags her torso around with her spine exposed, making a distinctive "teke teke" sound with her claw-like fingers, asking victims where her legs are.Only a specific answer will save you from being torn apart.We also discuss the frightening Hachishakusama, an eight-foot-tall woman in white who haunts children, making a deep "po po po" sound before taking them away forever. Unlike many other Yokai, she's not bound to a specific location, making her particularly dangerous.We share a detailed encounter story that illustrates the elaborate protective measures Japanese families might take to shield children who have been "liked" by this entity, including the use of religious artifacts and specific rituals to confuse and evade her.Patreon: Support Believing the Bizarre and get tons of extra content by joining our Patreon.For updates, news, and extra content, follow Believing the Bizarre on social media:InstagramFacebookTwitterDiscordShop Merch: You can rep Believing the Bizarre and buy some unique merchWant to send BTB something?
