IN THIS EPISODE: It’s a familiar scenario on a Saturday night in the Land of Lincoln. Teenagers gather at the home of a friend whose parents are out of town, for what they've been told at school all week will be the party to end all parties. But because they're teenagers, everything is boring—especially this party that only a handful of people have shown up for. After a few beers, someone suggests, “Hey, let’s go out to Bloods Point!” *** He was alone at home when firemen were called. The entire house was blazing... except for one room. The room that contained the corpse of J. Temple Thurston. (The Mysterious Death of J. Temple Thurston) *** A ghostly spirit brings comfort to a dying man’s grandchild. (A Comforting Nurse) *** Death comes to us all, but today children are shielded from the reality of death – only the stylized version they see in television and film. But years ago, when there was a death, it was a family affair – everyone of all ages participated in the funeral and grieving process. And some people coped with their grief by being artistic – such as writing a weird song called “The Hearse Song”. *** We all know people who love nature and the outdoors. Some will even have their own gardens and will talk to the flowers and plants, thinking it will help them thrive. But how would you react when you are sure the plants are talking back to you? (The Girl Who Talks To Trees) *** Mitchell Quy watched while the police looked for his missing wife; he even joined the search himself. No one ever expected that Mitchell was the one who had killed her. (He Murdered His Wife – Then Pretended To Look For Her) *** In 1986, the Tallmanns moved into what they thought was the ideal family home. They couldn’t have been more wrong.

IN THIS EPISODE: Bad omens – to most it’s just as silly to believe them as to believe in flying monsters or that a solar eclipse will bring about the end of life as we know it. But when looking at the correlations between odd or strange events, and the Mothman, you might begin to wonder if bad omens may be real after all. Which just might also give you a bit of a hesitation and a few goosebumps when you experience the next solar eclipse.SOURCES AND REFERENCES FROM THE EPISODE…http://www.destinationamerica.com/thehauntist/the-story-of-the-point-pleasant-mothman/https://www.prairieghosts.com/moth.htmlhttps://www.prairieghosts.com/cornstalk.htmlhttps://www.ranker.com/list/true-mothman-stories/lyra-radfordhttps://mysteriousuniverse.org/2013/07/did-mothman-visit-the-uk-in-1963/https://mysteriousuniverse.org/2018/06/an-update-on-a-sinister-winged-monster/https://mysteriousuniverse.org/2018/02/night-of-the-living-dead-human-animals/https://www.saltwoodkent.co.uk/island-graveWeird Darkness theme by Alibi Music Library= = = = =(Over time links seen above may become invalid, disappear, or have different content.

IN THIS EPISODE: Are ghosts and shadow people the same thing? Author Jacob Shelton doesn’t think so – and gives us an in-depth essay behind his reasoning. (Ghosts And Shadows) *** In September, 1935, the Labor Day Hurricane obliterated the Florida Keys, killing hundreds.  Even today, more than 83 years later, skeletal remains still continue to occasionally be found… as do some of their ghosts.  (Ghosts Of The Labor Day Hurricane) *** Nathaniel Bar-Jonah was accused of murdering a child.

(The Other Flatmate) *** In the wild frontier of the 1790s, Americans had much to be worried about.  Drought, famine, being injured with no one there to get help for you, poisonous snakes, hungry wolves, even being scalped by bloodthirsty natives of the land.  But nothing was so scary as… the Harpe brothers.  You see, the Harpe brothers didn’t choose their victims – they simply killed anyone who got in their way, including women and children.
