    Listener Stories: Sasquatch, Crawlers, & Gray Aliens | One Man's Unexplained Encounters

    For the first time on Weekly Bizarre, we’re handing the mic over to a listener. Tonight, we’re sharing the firsthand experiences of Austin, who has encountered some things that are difficult to explain — and even harder to forget. From strange encounters with Sasquatch and sightings of a pale crawler to mysterious little people and beings described as Gray aliens, Austin’s experiences take us down some pretty unusual rabbit holes. He originally shared these stories with me for social media, but after hearing just how many experiences he had, I knew they deserved an entire episode. And sometimes, the hardest part about sharing the unexplained isn’t what you’ve experienced… it’s finding someone willing to listen and take you seriously. So we’re giving Austin that space tonight.These are his experiences, his stories, and his encounters with the unknown. Have you experienced something you can’t explain? Maybe it’s time to tell your story, too. Welcome to our first listener stories episode!! Email: Weeklybizarrepodcast@gmail.com Support The Show/Ad-Free: Patreon.com/weeklybizarre

Hidden behind strange instructions, whispered warnings, and rituals passed around like urban legends are games said to open doors to things we were never meant to encounter. Tonight, we’re venturing into the unsettling world of paranormal games. From rituals meant to summon spirits to strange challenges that claim to invite something into your home, we’ll explore the rules, the warnings, and the terrifying experiences surrounding these games. Some people play out of curiosity. Others want proof that something exists beyond what we can see. But what happens when the game doesn’t end when you want it to? So settle in, get comfortable, and just remember, curiosity has a way of opening doors that cannot always be closed.

    Play Jazz Or Die: The Terrifying Mystery Of The Axeman

    In the early 1900s, the city of New Orleans found itself living in fear of a killer who seemed to vanish as mysteriously as he appeared. His weapon of choice? An axe. His victims? Ordinary people attacked in the safety of their own homes. They called him The Axeman of New Orleans. Between 1918 and 1919, a series of brutal attacks left families terrified, Italian grocers became targets, and an entire city began questioning who—or what—was lurking outside their doors. But things took an even stranger turn when a mysterious letter allegedly written by the Axeman appeared in the newspapers, threatening to strike again unless the people of New Orleans filled their homes with jazz music. Was this the work of a calculating serial killer, a burglar, or someone with a much darker motive? And was the infamous jazz-loving letter really written by the killer himself? Tonight, we’re following the trail of blood, bizarre theories, newspaper sensationalism, and unanswered questions surrounding one of New Orleans’ most unsettling unsolved mysteries.Because the Axeman may have disappeared, but his story never really left the city.

    The Monster Of New Orleans: The Disturbing Story Of Madame LaLaurie

    New Orleans is full of dark history, but few stories are as disturbing as the one behind the name Madame Delphine LaLaurie. Behind the doors of one of the city’s most infamous mansions, rumors of cruelty, torture, and unimaginable horrors would eventually expose a side of New Orleans society that was far darker than anyone wanted to believe.  When a fire broke out at the LaLaurie mansion in 1834, what was discovered inside shocked the city and left behind a legacy of horror that continues to haunt the French Quarter. In this episode of Weekly Bizarre, we’re diving into the disturbing history of Madame LaLaurie, the events that made her infamous, and the chilling legends and ghost stories that still surround her name. But where does the documented history end, and where do the darker legends begin? Because some houses become famous for who lived in them. Others become infamous for what happened behind closed doors. And the LaLaurie mansion? Its darkest stories may never fully be known.

    Bizarre Bedtime Stories: Something Is Wrong With Mirrors Ep. 5

    There’s something unsettling about mirrors, especially when you’re standing in a dark room, staring at your own reflection, and suddenly becoming a little too aware of how strange it all is. You move, it moves. You blink, it blinks. But what if, just for a second, it didn’t? Tonight, we’re getting into creepy stories involving mirrors. The kind that make you question what someone really saw, what was standing behind them, and why a simple reflection can suddenly become something you don’t want to look at anymore. Maybe it’s the way a reflection can look almost human but still feel strangely unfamiliar. Maybe it’s the shadows lurking behind you, the way your face seems to change in the darkness, or the uncomfortable thought that you’re looking at yourself from the other side of the glass. Whatever it is, mirrors have a way of making the familiar feel wrong. So settle in, get comfortable, and join me in these creepy stories surrounding the glass we look into every single day. Because tonight, we’re not just looking in the mirror. We’re wondering what might be looking back.
