    Episode 124: The Ghost Town of Portlock Alaska

    Send us Fan Mail In the remote wilderness of Portlock, Alaska, an entire town vanished. But the question remains—why? In this episode of Crypts and Corks, we travel to the foggy shores of Kenai Peninsula to explore one of Alaska’s most chilling mysteries: the abandoned settlement once known as Port Chatham. During the early 1900s, fishermen, cannery workers, and families built a small but thriving community here. Yet by the 1950s, the town had been completely deserted. The official explanation? Isolation and economic decline. The locals’ explanation? Something far more terrifying. Stories from former residents and nearby villagers speak of strange disappearances, mutilated bodies, and something massive moving through the forest. Some believed the area was haunted. Others whispered about the Nantinaq—a towering, Bigfoot-like creature said to stalk the mountains and forests around Portlock. So what really drove the people away? Was it the brutal realities of life in rural Alaska… or fear of something lurking just beyond the tree line? Pour yourself a drink and join us as we dig into eyewitness accounts, local folklore, and the unsettling mystery of the town that fear may have erased from the map.

    Episode 123: America’s Vampire Plague: A Roast Battle

    Send us Fan Mail In the late 1800s, fear of the undead spread through rural communities in New England—not through folklore alone, but through real exhumations, desperate families, and a mysterious disease no one yet understood. In this episode of Crypts and Corks, we dive into the chilling history of the New England Vampire Panic, a period when grieving families dug up their loved ones in search of proof that the dead were draining the life from the living. From the tragic story of Mercy Brown in Rhode Island to the widespread fear fueled by the deadly spread of tuberculosis, we explore how superstition, grief, and misunderstanding collided to create one of America’s strangest chapters of folklore. Why did otherwise rational communities believe vampires were real? And how did science eventually reveal the grim truth behind the panic? Pour a glass, dim the lights, and join us as we dig into graves, folklore, and the very real fears that haunted New England. Because sometimes… the scariest monsters are born from misunderstanding.  Don't forget to like, rate, and subscribe! Got story suggestions or personal stories?

    Episode 119: The Sharon Tate Tragedy Part II: The Manson Family

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode of Crypts and Corks, we pour a glass and dive into one of the most chilling and infamous crime stories of the 20th century: the life and crimes of Charles Manson. More than just a murderer, Manson was a manipulator who built a devoted following known as the “Manson Family,” steering them toward a series of brutal killings that shocked the world in 1969. We explore how Manson rose from a troubled childhood and years in prison to become a charismatic cult leader, the ideology he used to control his followers, and how the murders—most notably the killing of actress Sharon Tate and others in Los Angeles—ignited nationwide fear and forever changed the cultural landscape of the 60s and how it reverberates to today.
