    Rituals Games: SOME DOORS SHOULD STAY CLOSED

    Welcome to Episode 78 of Strange Darkness Radio — where curiosity pulls you in… and sometimes, something pulls back.   In this episode, Bobby Washington, Amy Tydeman, and Mike Fernandez explore the world of ritual games — the kind you’re only supposed to play once… if at all.   In the first half, we step into the eerie origins and rules behind some of the internet’s most infamous supernatural challenges. Mike breaks down the history, folklore, and supposed consequences of: • Kokkuri-san — Japan’s Ouija-like spirit summoning ritual • The Elevator Game — a step-by-step path to another dimension • The Three Kings Game — a psychological endurance ritual that blurs reality • The Midnight Game — a candlelit nightmare you may not escape   Where did these games come from? Why do people keep playing them? And what happens when the rules… aren’t followed exactly?   Then, in the second half, the atmosphere shifts.   The lights dim… The tension builds…   Amy leads a chilling round of Choose Your Curse — where there are no winning choices… only consequences. The question isn’t if you suffer… it’s how.   ⸻   ✨ March Host Spotlight — Amy Tydeman   In this episode, Bobby shines the Spotlight on Amy Tydeman — not just as a co-host, but as a driving force behind the spirit of Strange Darkness Radio.   Amy is more than a voice behind the mic… she is the heart and soul of the show.   A co-host, producer, and true ally, Amy has stood strong through the years — never once wavering, never once giving up on the vision. Her presence brings: • 🎙️ Voice of Reason • ⚡ Energy & Dedication • ❤️ Unshakable Loyalty   Through every dark topic, every late-night recording, every moment where the unknown crept a little too close… Amy has been there — grounded, fearless, and fully committed.   This Spotlight is more than recognition… it’s gratitude.   Thank you, Amy… for everything you do. Here’s to many more years of Strange Darkness Radio.   ⸻   So dim the lights… Check your mirrors… And whatever you do…   Don’t skip a step.   📺 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@strangedarknessradio   📘 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/StrangeDarknessRadio   🎙️ SpeakPipe — Leave Us a Voice Message: https://www.speakpipe.com/StrangeDarknessRadio   📧 Email: strangedarknessradio@gmail.com   📞 Call-In Line: 916-741-3032   🔥 Upgrade Your Gear & Support the Show   We’ve partnered with OBSBOT to bring you next-level creator tech.

  2. Familiars & the Fae: Spirits Between Worlds

    Familiars & the Fae: Spirits Between Worlds

    There are companions that walk beside witches… unseen, ancient, and bound by forces we barely understand. And there are realms that exist just beyond our own… watching, waiting… remembering.   On this chilling Bonus Episode of Strange Darkness Radio, Bobby Washington is joined by returning guest Silverayne as they explore the hidden world of Witch Familiars and the Fae—two of the most mysterious and misunderstood elements of folklore and magical practice.   ⸻   In This Episode:   • Witch Familiars – Spirit companions, animal guides, or something far more ancient? Entities believed to assist with magic, offer protection, and act as messengers between worlds • The historical fear of familiars during the witch trials—and how their true nature may have been misunderstood • The Fae (Fair Folk) – Powerful, unpredictable beings tied to nature, hidden realms, and ancient laws beyond human comprehension • The eerie concept of time distortion, where moments in their realm may translate to years in ours • The possible connection between familiars and the Fae—and whether these forces are more intertwined than we realize • And the lingering question… are these beings myth—or something still interacting with our world today?   ⸻   A Haunting Personal Encounter   Ed DonGilli shares a chilling experience that began with a simple purchase—a crystal from a shop in Salem.   What followed felt anything but ordinary.   He describes coming face-to-face with a woman he believes was a witch… radiating an overwhelming, almost hypnotic energy. A presence so intense it blurred the line between desire and danger—pulling at him in a way that didn’t feel entirely his own.   This wasn’t simple attraction. It felt like something trying to take hold.   And in that moment, Ed knew—if he gave in, the outcome could have been far worse than he could imagine.   So he resisted.   Because sometimes, the greatest power… is refusing the darkness when it calls your name.   ⸻   🎧 Listen Now:   Spotify | Apple Podcasts | iHeartRadio | Podbean | YouTube | Wherever you get your podcasts   ⸻   🌙 Follow Our Guest – Silverayne:   🔗 https://linktr.ee/ravenfyre (Access all of her official content, social media platforms, and offerings)   ⸻   🌐 Follow Strange Darkness Radio:   YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@strangedarknessradio Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/strangedarknessradio Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/strangedarknessradio TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@strangedarknessradio   ⸻   📞 Share Your Story:   Call or Text: 916-741-3032 Email: strangedarknessradio@gmail.com SpeakPipe: Submit your story directly online   ⸻   ⚠️ Listener Discretion Advised   This episode contains discussions of paranormal encounters, spiritual entities, and intense personal experiences.

    The Window Man — A Conversation with Will Camaren

    Did author Will Camaren experience real time travel? We explore precognition, paranormal encounters, and the mystery of The Window Man.   Welcome to Episode 77 of Strange Darkness Radio.   In this episode, Bobby Washington, Amy Tydeman, and Mike Hernandez sit down with author Will Camaren to discuss his book The Window Man and the extraordinary experiences that inspired it. Camaren claims he has the ability to “traverse time” — describing vivid episodes where he says he has witnessed moments from both the past and the future.   During our conversation, he shares what these experiences feel like, when they first began, and how they shaped his life. We also explore the controversy surrounding his claims that he foresaw the high-profile assassination of Charlie Kirk and wrote about it prior to the event — only for the book to later disappear from online platforms.   Is it precognition? A psychological phenomenon? A publishing glitch? Or something far stranger?   Somewhere inside this episode lies a secret word as part of our ongoing Name Drop Challenge.   🎧 Here’s how it works: At some point during the episode, a secret word will be spoken. The first listener who hears the word and emails it to us at strangedarknessradio@gmail.com will win the Name Drop Challenge prize.   So listen carefully… because in the world of Strange Darkness Radio, sometimes the smallest whisper unlocks the biggest mystery.   ⸻   Connect With Strange Darkness Radio   📺 YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@strangedarknessradio   📘 Facebook https://www.facebook.com/StrangeDarknessRadio   🎙️ SpeakPipe — Leave Us a Voice Message https://www.speakpipe.com/StrangeDarknessRadio   📧 Email strangedarknessradio@gmail.com   📞 Call-In Line 916-741-3032   ⸻   🔥 Upgrade Your Gear & Support the Show   We’ve partnered with OBSBOT to bring you next-level creator tech.   Use our code STRANGEDARKNESSRADIO at checkout for exclusive savings.   👉 Grab your gear here: https://www.obsbot.com/?rfsn=8927750.7ce0d0e&utm_source=refersion&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_campaign=8927750.7ce0d0e   Step into sharper, smoother, paranormal-ready content.   ⸻   🙏 Thank You for Supporting Strange Darkness Radio   If you enjoyed this episode, please like, subscribe, and follow on:   YouTube • Spotify • iHeartRadio • Apple Podcasts • or wherever you listen in the dark.   Your support keeps the shadows talking and the stories alive.

    FROM THOUGHT TO ENTITY How the Human Mind Manufactures Reality Strange Darkness Radio – Bonus Episode

    Some monsters aren’t born in the dark. They’re uploaded. In this Bonus Episode of Strange Darkness Radio, Bobby Washington is joined by Ed DonGilli and Kyler Jackson to explore a chilling modern reality:   What happens when the internet stops telling scary stories… and starts engineering them?   Across Reddit threads, forum challenges, and collaborative storytelling spaces, online communities have quietly transformed fiction into something far more persistent — constructing beings through repetition, reinforcement, and mass participation.   Not through summoning circles. Not through ancient rituals. But through attention.   We examine how social platforms function as digital ritual chambers, where fabricated sightings, shared lore, and agreed-upon “rules” allow fictional entities to stabilize inside collective consciousness.   When thousands of people behave as though something exists…   Does it begin to function as though it does?   This episode explores how exposure alone can trigger vivid dreams, sleep paralysis imagery, intrusive thoughts, and the creeping sense of being watched — even when the experiencer knows the source is fictional.   Because the most unsettling possibility isn’t that monsters are real.   It’s that belief itself may be the engine that builds them.   And in an age of endless connectivity…   Manufacture has never been easier.   ⸻   Entities Examined in This Episode   THE HAT MAN — Bobby Washington A shadow figure reported across cultures and decades, often appearing during sleep paralysis. We explore how scattered experiences may have converged into a single recognizable silhouette through online sharing and collective reinforcement.   SLENDER MAN — Benson (standing in for Marlee Grounds) Born from an online contest and strengthened through fake photographs, fabricated encounters, and collaborative lore. A case study in deliberate myth construction.   ANANSI’S GOATMAN — Kyler Jackson Originating from a first-person internet post framed as a warning rather than fiction. Known for paranoia-inducing “rules” and group-based fear mechanics.   THE RAKE — Ed DonGilli An animalistic, humanoid presence developed through early forum storytelling, characterized by silent observation, intrusion, and recurring nightmare imagery.   ⸻   Step softly.   Some ideas don’t stay ideas.   Connect With Strange Darkness Radio   📺 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@strangedarknessradio   📘 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/StrangeDarknessRadio   🎙️ SpeakPipe — Leave Us a Voice Message: https://www.speakpipe.com/StrangeDarknessRadio   📧 Email: strangedarknessradio@gmail.com   📞 Call-In Line: 916-741-3032   🔥 Upgrade Your Gear & Support the Show   We’ve partnered with OBSBOT to bring you next-level creator tech.

    BEYOND THE BODY THE REALITY OF ASTRAL PROJECTION

    Welcome to Episode 76 What really happens when consciousness leaves the body? In this episode, your hosts Bobby Washington, Amy Tydeman, Carolyn Grey, and Mike Hernandez dive deep into the world of astral projection and out-of-body experiences. They discuss what astral projection is and why it continues to fascinate researchers, skeptics, and experiencers alike. Next, they listen to interviews on astral projection, including Robert Monroe, founder of the Monroe Institute, exploring his own experiences, laying the foundation for his groundbreaking work on consciousness, altered states, and the idea that awareness may exist beyond the physical body. Then, things get personal. We’re joined by Strange Darkness Radio’s bonus show co-host, Kyler Jackson, who shares a firsthand out-of-body experience—what it felt like and what he saw.  Finally, on Open Line, are submissions by listeners describing their personal experiences with astral projection.  Whether you’re a skeptic, a seeker, or just a little curious, this episode invites you to sit with the question: Is astral projection imagination… or something more?

    Do You Hear That? — The Mike Fernandez Story

    Episode 74 – In this episode of Strange Darkness Radio, we open the door to a story that began in a place meant to be sterile, silent, controlled—a laboratory. Mike Fernandez recounts moments when the hum of machines gave way to something far more unsettling: chanting, unexplained sounds, and the unmistakable feeling of being observed by something unseen.   From there, the veil thins even further. Mike shares deeply personal experiences with Ouija boards, family paranormal encounters passed down like whispered warnings, and the kind of moments that linger long after the lights are turned off. These aren’t stories meant to shock—they’re stories that follow you.   This episode also marks an important turning point. We officially welcome Mike Fernandez as the newest host of Strange Darkness Radio. A new voice joins the signal—curious, grounded, and unafraid to step into the unknown.   So listen closely. In the quiet spaces… In the pauses between words…   Ask yourself the same question Mike did: Do you hear that?   ⸻   🌙 Connect With Strange Darkness Radio   📺 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@strangedarknessradio   📘 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/StrangeDarknessRadio   🎙️ SpeakPipe — Leave Us a Voice Message: https://www.speakpipe.com/StrangeDarknessRadio   📧 Email: strangedarknessradio@gmail.com   📞 Call-In Line: 916-741-3032   🔥 Upgrade Your Gear & Support the Show   We’ve partnered with OBSBOT to bring you next-level creator tech.
