    UNEXPLAINED OKLAHOMA: Native Spirits, Local Legends, & Lights Beneath the Lake

    Journey into the dark woods, lonely roads, mysterious lakes, and haunted history of the Sooner State in UNEXPLAINED OKLAHOMA. In this Phantoms & Monsters Radio presentation, we examine eight extraordinary eyewitness accounts from across Oklahoma: A retired Special Forces veteran confronts a massive humanlike figure outside Maud. A teenager near Stillwater awakens to find red eyes watching through his bedroom window. An enormous bird attacks a rooster in McLoud. Three young witnesses in Tecumseh encounter a gigantic owl-like figure they associate with the Seminole Stikini tradition. A family preserves the story of a black, winged warning encountered near Mount Scott. Two witnesses report a mysterious light beneath Arcadia Lake—and possible contact with three tall, blond beings. Near Talihina, an upright canine creature emerges after nights of unidentified screams. Finally, a young child appears to see someone no one else can at the Oklahoma City Memorial Fence. Were these encounters caused by known animals, mistaken perceptions, folklore, coincidence, or deliberate fabrication? Or do some point toward phenomena we still do not understand? Listen to the reports, consider the evidence, and share your conclusions in the comments. If you have experienced an unexplained encounter, document the details and contact Phantoms & Monsters.

    UNEXPLAINED KENTUCKY: Terrifying Encounters Through the Bluegrass to the Backwoods

    Kentucky’s wooded hollows, isolated farms, cave systems, and dark country roads have inspired generations of unsettling stories. But what happens when the people telling those stories insist that the legends are real? In this episode of Phantoms & Monsters Radio, we examine eight extraordinary reports from across the Bluegrass State. The witnesses describe a Dogman pounding on a family’s front door, the bear-and-wolf-like creature known as Bearilla, a mysterious white Bigfoot seen by separate relatives, a violent Sheepsquatch encounter in Breckinridge County, tiny winged beings near Daniel Boone National Forest, a towering red-eyed figure on a western Kentucky road, human-like creatures in northern Kentucky, and a bizarre Falmouth encounter involving telepathy, multiple entities, a doorway of light, and missing time. Are these cases examples of misidentified wildlife, Appalachian folklore, unknown cryptids, paranormal manifestations, or something even stranger? Listen to the complete presentation and decide for yourself. If you have experienced an unexplained creature, paranormal event, UFO encounter, or other high-strangeness incident, share your report with Phantoms & Monsters.

    HAUNTED ELLICOTT CITY, MD: 250 Years of Ghosts & Legends | Rissa Miller

    More than 250 years of history have left their mark on Ellicott City, Maryland, and according to generations of chilling stories, not everyone who lived there has left. Founded along the Patapsco River in 1772, this historic mill town has endured devastating floods, destructive fires, war, industry, tragedy, and tremendous change. Its steep hills and narrow streets are lined with centuries-old buildings that have accumulated countless stories and an extraordinary collection of ghost lore. From haunted homes and former taverns to old institutions and mysterious spirits said to still wander Main Street, we explore some of Ellicott City’s most enduring hauntings with special guest Rissa Miller. Rissa Miller is an award-winning author, folklorist, historian, and storyteller whose work explores the strange places where history, folklore, and the unexplained meet. A former award-winning journalist and the literary coordinator at the Edgar Allan Poe House & Museum, she has spent nearly a decade leading ghost tours and researching the legends, hauntings, and unusual histories of Pennsylvania and Maryland. Rissa is especially fascinated by the stories communities tell about the places they inhabit and what those stories reveal about both the past and the people who keep them alive. Her research takes her on deep dives into historic archives, old newspapers, cemeteries, museums, and, of course, more than a few haunted buildings. Join Rissa and Phantoms & Monsters Radio host Lon Strickler for a fascinating journey into the history, legends, and lingering spirits of one of Maryland’s most famously haunted communities. What, or who, may still be haunting historic Ellicott City? 👤 I'm Lon Strickler, creator of Phantoms & Monsters, and I’ve been a paranormal researcher and intuitive investigator for almost 50 years.
