    GHOSTS OF MONTAUK - with special guest Chris Laterreur

    EPISODE #78

    I’ve spent years of my life researching and investigating the alleged happenings in Montauk. I created several documentaries & TV programs on the subject. I talked with dozens of people who claimed they were either victims or engineers of underground atrocities -Beatings, drugs, mind manipulation and murder…There’s no escaping this story until it’s proven to be true. There’s too much evidence to support that there was a mind control experiment in sub levels of the Camp Hero Air Force station.For those who don’t believe, you’re simply lacking in knowledge. Alike programs ( such as MK Ultra and The Holmesburg Prison experiments) were already confirmed to be true. Perhaps you don’t want to believe? I don’t want to believe it either. I wish it was all a bad dream but unfortunately it isn’t.Many people approach me with their “Montauk” stories and every now and then I find something authentic about them.Join me (beginning Wednesday night at 8:00 pm ET) for an interview with Chris Laterreur. Chris claims to have been a subject of both the psychic research experiments as well as a victim of their brutality.You don’t want to miss this one.New episodes of Off To The Witch premiere every Wednesday night at 8:00pm ET.Off To The Witch can be found on all major podcast platforms as well as my YouTube channel (at offtothewitch)@highlight@highlight#offtothewitch #christophergaretano #podcast #horror #montaukproject #mystery #unsolvedmysteries #montauk #montaukchronicles #conspiracy

    VIOLENT WORLD - NEWSLETTER #17

    On June 11th 1963 Thich Quang Duc (a Buddhist monk) self immolated in protest of both the corruption of the South Vietnamese government and the violence they imposed.Within the beauty of our world is the inescapable nature of both beast and man. Both darkness and light.A paradox remains that often throughout history there are protests in society, art, cinema and music, against senseless violence - while others celebrate and parody our mysterious duality.Join me (beginning tonight) for the Off To The Witch newsletter as I explore our violent world.New episodes of Off To The Witch premiere every Wednesday night at 8:00pm ET.Off To The Witch can be found on all major podcast platforms as well as my YouTube channel (at offtothewitch)@followers#offtothewitch #christophergaretano #podcast #horror #violence #cinema #history #art #protest

    ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE NOW! - with special guest KBVISIONS

    ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE NOW! - with special guest KBVISIONS

    EPISODE #76

    I grew up with the fantasy horror stories of George Romero and Stephen King. As powerful as the subtext and metaphor of Dawn Of The Dead, Cell, The Stand, Day Of The Dead, and Maximum Overdrive was, I could not fathom it all being a possibility in our reality. The dead rising from the grave or hoards of mind controlled humans taking over the world was simply the work of fiction? It seems our nightmares have slowly crept into our reality as an entire consciousness is beginning to change. Who is changing it and why is it happening so quickly? Is artificial intelligence of alien origin? Is there a master plan as minds are in the grip of an unseen force? What is their master plan?Stay tuned for a discussion of our current times and a possible apocalypse that’s tantamount to our worst cinematic nightmares. My special guest this week is KBvisions who is a survivor of a bioengineered disease (Morgellons) and offers her perspective on a darkening path before us. I personally believe there’s a way to the light but we must act fast and take action now. It all starts within.Join us, beginning Wednesday night at 8:00pm ET for a discussion of our bizarre time in history.Off To The Witch can be found on all major podcast platforms as well as my YouTube channel (at offtothewitch)@followers#offtothewitch #christophergaretano #podcast #horror #technology #mind #control #future

    On tonight's (OFF TO THE WITCH) newsletter I discuss my forthcoming novel, Montauk Boys - it will be released later this year. It’s the fictional tale of five juvenile delinquents who are the target of a nefarious, covert government mind control experiment.Set in 1987 (years after the alleged Montauk Project was said to have taken place) the book is partly based on over a decade of my own research and first hand experience, speaking with people who claim they were victims of several proven and yet unproven government atrocities.I’ll read a short chapter from Montauk Boys in my Off To The Witch newsletter on Wednesday night.I can’t wait to share this story with all of you. The characters are alive in my mind and I’m excited for this dark adventure to reach beyond your eyes and imagination.#christophergaretano #montaukboys #novel #2024 #montaukproject #montaukchronicles #fiction #horror
