Episode 21: The Van Meter Visitor: Bulletproof Beast or Cornfield Cryptid?
Description
In this spine-tingling episode of Counter 2 Intelligence, Tom and Ken crack open one of the weirdest unsolved mysteries in American folklore: the Van Meter Visitor.
Back in 1903, the quiet town of Van Meter, Iowa was stalked by a giant, winged creature that glowed like a haunted lighthouse, reeked like sulfur, and casually walked off bullet wounds. Was it a demon, a prehistoric survivor, or just a small-town hoax gone nuclear?
We dig into the eyewitness accounts, the bizarre theories, and the stranger-than-fiction twists that make this cryptid case a Midwest legend. Think true crime meets monster hunt, with a side of sarcastic banter and cold hard "what the hell."
🎙️ Tune in for:
- Paranormal eyewitness reports
- Cryptid creature theories (pterosaur, demon, alien?)
- Hilarious commentary & historical context
- The wild legacy of Iowa's winged nightmare
If you like Mothman, Jersey Devil, or just love a solid WTF story, this one’s for you.
