    The Maine Book of Secrets Episode 10

    Welcome back to the Maine Book of Secrets. It's been a hell of a week in the news. A friggin' moose got stuck in a well (again), the town of Penobscot ran out of room to bury Grandma, and somehow the French managed to take down Hannaford's delivery app. In the second half of the show, Autumn shares what may be Maine's very first ghost story, while Chris Julian opens up his case files for two strange encounters. One details an extraordinary UFO sighting. The other investigates reports of a mysterious creature lurking beneath the surface of a Maine lake. Is it an undiscovered species, a case of mistaken identity, or just a really big fish? Stick around and decide for yourself. New episodes drop every Thursday anywhere podcast are found.

    Welcome back to the Maine Book of Secrets. We spent the weekend at the Maine Paranormal & Horror Con, so of course we’ve got stories to tell.

We also share an interview with a listener we met in person at the convention. And finally, Chris Julian returns to the Stud Mill Road, revisiting the spot where he encountered two mysterious figures just a few short months ago.

    The Maine Book of Secrets Episode 5

    Welcome back to the Maine Book of Secrets. Summer’s winding down, the air’s cooling off, pumpkin spice is back in full force, and the Blue Hill Fair has wrapped for the year. In the news, a 91‑year‑old man tackled one of Maine’s most dangerous peaks, a supposed bigfoot sighting stirred up a small town, and—no surprise here—people are still spotting strange things in the sky. And of course, your listener stories carried the show. We heard about glowing orbs drifting across the night, an upbringing shaped by the oddities of rural Maine, and a final story from someone who lived in a rental where eerie noises echoed through the house and an ominous figure appeared at the foot of their bed.

They talk about what they’re most excited to see, the great work the organizers put into the event each year, and what listeners can expect when they stop by the Maine Book of Secrets booth. In the news this week: a woman was arrested after breaking into a Maine home simply to make coffee, and a man was found deceased near a firepit in Sanford. Then it’s time for listener stories. Nick shares his experience on I‑395 involving a strange object in the sky, Renee tells us about an old hospice facility with a past that’s hard to pin down, and we have a very special story submitted by a close member of the Maine Book of Secrets family that you won’t want to miss.

    Welcome back to the Maine Book of Secrets. On this week’s show, we start with two major headlines: the passing of Dolly Parton, a cultural icon whose influence reached generations, and the ongoing discussion around the proposed data center project here in Maine. We break down what each story means for the region and why they’ve sparked so much conversation. We also take a look at the coal roads of Bangor — their history, their role in shaping the city, and why they continue to matter today. Then we turn to listener stories. Chris Julian shares an encounter turned in by a local tribal member that left him questioning what he saw, and Autumn returns with Eva’s story about a piece of land that seems to carry more than its fair share of magic.
