Believing the Bizarre: Paranormal Conspiracies & Myths

• 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.
