Supernatural Occurrence Studies Podcast

Jason Nhyte

Welcome to the Supernatural Occurrence Studies podcast, a chaotic carnival of the weird and the wicked.  Here, Jason Nhyte and Oscar Spectir, two veteran ghost hunters and podcasters with a penchant for the macabre, peel back the layers of reality to expose what lurks beneath. This isn’t your run-of-the-mill paranormal fluff; this is deep research, real hauntings, and the raw underbelly of the supernatural.  Where ghosts rattle the chains of the past, aliens haunt the night skies, conspiracy theories unravel everything you think you know, and serial killers leave trails colder than a graveyard breeze. Broadcasting from the gritty streets of Chicago, Nhyte and Spectir drag you to haunted houses, cursed hotels, and places better left forgotten, dissecting every creak, every chill, and every gut-wrenching tale.  Each episode isn’t just audio; it’s a sensory overload of videos and photographs, dragging you into the depths of their research. Every episode invites you to confront the chaos, to question what you think you know.  So, buckle up. The truth is out there, and it’s more twisted than you can imagine.  This isn’t just a podcast; it’s an experience.  Welcome to your new obsession.

    Episode 175: THE LONG HAUL: Serial Killers, Truck Drivers, and America’s Interstate Dead

    The Long Haul examines America’s interstate highway system as an unintentional hunting ground for serial killers who exploited mobility, anonymity, and jurisdictional gaps to evade detection. From the FBI’s Highway Serial Killings Initiative to terrifying case studies of long-haul truckers like Robert Ben Rhoades, Dellmus Colvin, Bruce Mendenhall, and Keith Jesperson, this episode exposes how highways became corridors of opportunity, and how marginalized victims are systematically erased between exits. This is a deep dive into forgotten murders, fractured investigations, and the dark truth that some of the deadliest crime scenes in America are still moving.

    Episode 174: The Drowning Men - From the Midwest to the Bayou

    Across decades and miles, young men disappear along waterways, alone, intoxicated, and unseen, only to resurface lifeless, their final moments swallowed by the currents. From the Midwest’s Smiley Face cases to Houston’s 2025 bayou deaths, patterns of undetermined drownings, missing-time gaps, and disturbing similarities emerge. Families suspect foul play; authorities deny it. Water conceals, distorts, and erases evidence, leaving only questions. This episode explores the eerie parallels, forensic puzzles, and haunting secrets that America’s waterways refuse to reveal.

    Episode 173: Santa Claus is Coming...From Another Planet?

    This Christmas, the most mysterious visitor might not be coming down your chimney. Why do reports of UFOs and strange phenomena spike during the holiday season? In this special episode, we explore "The Holiday Zone”, that eerie period between December 20th and 26th when the line between Christmas miracles and close encounters blurs. We delve into four chilling true stories of December encounters. First, the personal terror of author Whitley Strieber, who documented a traumatic visitation by non-human "Others" at his remote cabin on December 26th, 1985, an event that became the foundation of modern abduction lore with his book, Communion. Then, we journey to Rendlesham Forest, England, for "Britain's Roswell," where U.S. Air Force personnel, including a deputy base commander, witnessed and touched a strange craft in the days after Christmas, 1980. We also uncover the government-covered crash of a bizarre, acorn-shaped object in Kecksburg, Pennsylvania, and examine a modern wave of mysterious Christmas lights over Wisconsin. From personal abductions to military incidents and mass sightings, these stories ask a profound question: Is it just our imagination, or is something else truly visiting when the nights are longest, and we’re all looking up at the sky, waiting for a miracle?

    Episode 172: November 2025 Mystery Box

    Three unexplained phenomena: a strangely behaving interstellar comet, dark allegations of "human hunting parties" in wartime Bosnia, and a modern-day airport security incident that feels orchestrated. Told separately, they are compelling mysteries. Heard together, they paint a frightening portrait of a reality where the line between coincidence and conspiracy is dangerously thin.

    Episode 170: Cropsey - The Nightmare That Became Real

    For decades, Staten Islanders whispered the legend of Cropsey, a shadowy figure lurking in the woods, preying on the innocent. In some stories he had a bloody hook for a hand, in others he wielded a terrifying axe. Your typical urban legend. But, when children started disappearing, the urban myth became horrifyingly real. In this episode, we uncover the truth behind Cropsey, the abandoned ruins of Willowbrook State School, and the man at the center of it all: Andre Rand. Was he a lone predator, or part of something even more sinister? With disturbing disappearances, eerie urban legends, and whispers of a cult connection, we explore the terrifying reality that still haunts Staten Island and the lingering mysteries that may never be solved.

    Episode 169: Vampiric Legends of New Orleans

    New Orleans’ eerie charm and gothic architecture have long made it the perfect setting for vampire lore, both on screen and in the shadows of reality. From Anne Rice’s Interview with the Vampire to the chilling legends of the Casket Girls, the city’s history is steeped in blood-soaked myths. This episode dives into the dark tales lurking behind the French Quarter’s gaslit streets: the Ursuline Convent’s sealed third floor, rumored to hold escaped vampires; the Carter brothers, whose gruesome 1932 crimes left locals fearing undead predators; and the enigmatic Jacques St. Germain, a wealthy socialite suspected of being the immortal Comte de St. Germain. We’ll even explore modern encounters with "energy vampires" draining victims of their vitality. Whether folklore or frightening truth, New Orleans blurs the line between the living and the undead. So, light a candle, lock your doors, and join us, if you dare, for a journey into the heart of vampire country.
