Black Cat Report

This week we dig into the mythology surrounding Strigoi - the inspiration for what became known as the vampire. We'll cover their impact on folklore and legend, including how these creatures come into being, attack, and kill. We also delve into some of the historical and cultural aspects of Strigoi and touch on the prevalence of beliefs and actions towards Strigoi, which raises the question of whether something is actually there, even if it may not be exactly what people believe. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/black-cat-report/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/black-cat-report/support

In Part 5, we conclude our coverage of one of the most complex and well-documented cases in UFO abduction history! With eyewitness accounts, hypnosis sessions, and follow-ups with related abductees and witnesses, the investigation conducted by Budd Hopkins is like a diary taking place over years, rather than trying to piece together memories from events decades later. We also delve into the possibility of extraterrestrial contact, the existence of UFOs in our skies, and the purpose and intentions of potential alien pilots. Additionally, we discuss the case's unique aspects, including the involvement of security personnel and the controlled environment for studying binding habits in humans.
