Happy Halloween, spooky babes. Thank you for your patience as I slowly made my big butt back to the pod. I'm here now! <3 Some houses are occupied by the restless spirits of those who have passed within their walls. They leave signs of their presence if you pay close enough attention, sometimes they even have enough energy to touch you, or move something in your home. Other effects can be more insidious...a dark thought injected into the brain, a cloud of hopelessness left lingering in the...
Thank you for patiently waiting, my babes. This is the last solo episode for awhile! Pardon my cold on this. <3 The Movement for the Restoration of the Ten Commandments of God used fear of apocalyptic proportions to persuade its followers to give up all their earthly possessions and devote themselves to the cult. The abusive tactics are similar to many others we've discussed on the show before, and sadly, this didn't end any better than those. The majority of the Movement's followers ...
Thank you so much for patiently waiting for the conclusion to Betty Andreasson's close encounter of the fourth kind, everyone! Life has been really kicking us in the ass lately, but here it is! Join us as we take a deep dive into the rest of Betty's abduction, and the investigator's findings into her and her family's encounters with the beings from a planet that shall not be named. Let's get dark. The source for this episode was The Andreasson Affair: The True Story of a Close Encounter of th...
The Andreasson family was going about their daily routine one evening in 1976 when a UFO landed in their backyard. There were flashing lights outside, the electricity went out in the house, and suddenly, there were visitors INSIDE the house, asking Betty Andreasson to come with them. Betty thought they may be sent from Jesus, but they sure looked like aliens. Eventually, they coerced her into joining them on their spacecraft, but that was just the beginning of her horrifying encounter. Join u...
Two days after her pharmaceutical tycoon boyfriend's 6 year old son Max, suffered from a terrible fall under her care, 32 year old Rebecca Zahau was allegedly found hanging from a balcony at the Coronado, California mansion where they spent summers. It was a tragic situation that might seem logical, except for a few major details: she was found with her wrist and ankles bound behind her body, she was nude, and there was a cryptic message written near her body that doesn't seem like it was wri...
In Let's Get Dark's very first "Midnight Session" episode (those with a paranormal/esoteric subject matter) we discuss the very first Poltergeist in a housing project in the US: the haunting of 13 year old Ernie Rivers and his grandmother Mabelle Clark. Ernie had a tumultuous childhood, which culminated in an incredibly active and physical poltergeist that tormented him & his grandmother for months in 1961. The fact that they lived in public housing, meant that various officials began int...
Yaser Said moved to America from Egypt in 1983 and shortly after, at the age of 30, married 15 year old Patricia Owens. By the time she was 18, the couple had three children under the age of five, and severely struggled to make ends meet. Yaser was a controlling and abusive husband and father, particularly focusing his attention on his beautiful daughters, who he saw as a way to secure financial success once they were old enough to marry off to wealthy "suitors" back in Egypt. When they rebel...
In the conclusion of our coverage on communication beyond the veil, we discuss more modern methods, primarily Ouija and Estes Method. We discuss how to heighten your abilities to make this communication easier and our experiences with the Estes Method. Throw on your spooky babes, and let's Creep It Ouija. Support the show
In the first episode of our series on spirit/interdimensional communication, we discuss the practice which goes back to the beginning of recorded history, much like all the paranormal topics we cover. Cultures throughout time have conducted their own rituals and practices in order to commune with higher powers or those who have died, from Oracles and Seers in Ancient Greece, to modern day Christians receiving prophesy. So, lose the closed minds, and join us while we creep it real about talkin...
We were so excited to talk with Connor Randall from the documentary series Hellier, co-inventor of the Estes Method of communication with the other side, YouTube series Spirits of the Stanley, and the list goes on. We discuss his experiences with the paranormal that helped shaped who he is today, how he developed the Estes Method (which we've spoken about and are mega-amateurs at, btw), and of course, Hellier and how their investigations on the show really line up with our ever-evolving belie...
Tales of winged creatures and mysterious visitors in black go back to the beginning of recorded history, in just about every culture. In Point Pleasant, West Virginia during 1966 & 1967, these ominous visitors would serve as omens for a terrible tragedy that struck the town one December evening when the Silver Bridge collapsed into the river below. As usual, we discover that all of the paranormal phenomena we look into seems to be wound together tightly, and more & more we realize eve...
When Rulon Jeffs prophet powers were (naturally) transferred to his son at the time of his death, the already maniacal man became an even bigger nightmare for the followers of FLDS than they had previously known. Using his "powers" he was able to convince them all to go along with ANYTHING, from forced child marriages to the possibility they would have to slice the throats of their wives if commanded. It's awful, but he gets what's coming to him and helps remind us all that they only good cul...
The Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints was created as a more rigid interpretation of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, more specifically to continue practicing polygamy after the LDS church stopped. Because there was never any structure within the FLDS, there have been battles for power since its inception, and the cult has always been rife with abuse and corruption. When Rulon Jeffs became the prophet and his son manipulated his way to the positio...
Indigenous women make up only 4% of Canada's population but are four times more likely to be murdered or go missing. This means that even by the most conservative estimates, half of all women murdered are indigenous. It is a tragedy striking Canada and the United States at an alarming rate. In 2014, a 15-year-old Indigenous girl named Tina Fontaine was found murdered and dumped in the Red River in Winnipeg, Canada. Her murder sparked a call for justice and lengthy investigation, ultimately re...
We didn't know what we were getting into when we started looking into the seemingly inordinate amount of deaths of prominent Ferguson protestors and Civil Rights leaders, but it took us down a path that frankly made us uncomfortable, and challenged the beliefs we had about the tragic situation that sparked a new revolution. What happened that day in Ferguson, Missouri in 2014, and what has been the aftermath? You know we're gonna creep it real, so let's talk. Links to our sources for thi...
There may have been a time when Alex Jones had intentions other than, as Texas Monthly aptly put it, “helping to create a world where facts don’t matter.” but that version of himself is long, long gone. The fantastic publication awarded Jones their 2019 Bum Steer of the Year award, saying “the radio host dragged our democracy into the same sewer he crawled out of so many years ago.” and we could not agree more. Unfortunately, he trolled his way right into the president's pocket, playing a key...

79 - Haunts of Gettysburg

2020-10-2301:00:09

Considered a perfect storm for the paranormal, Gettysburg, Pennsylvania is often believed to be one of the most haunted places in the United States. The site of the bloodiest battle of the civil war, the area saw a tremendous amount of violence, terror, anger...an intense amount of just about every negative energy possible, and it has had a ripple effect to this day. There are reports of ghostly apparitions, voices, physical touches, and most have been experienced throughout the past century ...
In this episode, we discuss one of America's oldest pastimes: cannibalism. Alfred (or Alferd if you ask him) Packer was an early settler in the Western Frontier which was essentially one hard time after another, and that wasn't helped by his general unlikeableness and all-around shady behavior. In 1874, when he led a group of men through the harsh Colorado winter wilderness against the warnings of the Indigenous tribe who had welcomed them in, all the men ended up dead, except for ol' Packer....

The only time you'd laugh when referring to "looking for a missing child" would be if the friend was blind... I'd laugh at least lol

I think he says State Bear using CB slang a cop would be Smokey the Bear. So he was saying it was a State Trooper.

34:30 and paranoia/rejection point to suicide to me. Closing it doesn’t seem likely. 🤔

I love this podcast. These two have a perfect mix of light hearted banter and deep respect for the victims of the crimes they discuss, reminiscent of TCATT. I binge listened in one week, ignoring all my normal favorites until I finished. Thank you for the awesome listen and I look forward to hearing more in the future!
