    175 - The Black Eyed Children

    According to the Business Standard, "They might knock on your door on a late wintry night. You may see them approaching your car while you are waiting at the signal or a gas station. It might seem like they need help or they might just stand still for no reason. These children do not look threatening. They would want to get in your house or your car. They will be persistent. Suddenly, you will notice something is not right about these children. Their eyes, pure black, from lid-to-lid, dead black orbs devoid of sclera or iris will chill up your spine; you have finally come across the black-eyed children. Black-eyed children or black-eyed kids is an urban legend of paranormal creatures that resemble children between the ages of six and sixteen. These creatures with pale skin and black eyes have reportedly been seen hitchhiking, panhandling, or at the doorsteps of residential homes." So, we look at some of these cases. Are they vampires? Related to the Men in Black? What's the answer? We also got a phone call by our old pal Dracula.

    174 - Estonia Folk Lore

    According to the BBC, "Since regaining its independence with the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, Estonia has become one of the most economically successful of the EU's eastern European members. Estonia joined both the EU and Nato in 2004. Ruled at various times during the middle ages by Denmark, the German knights of the Livonian Order, and Sweden, Estonia ended up part of the Russian Empire in the 18th Century. It experienced its first period of independence in 1918, following the end of World War One and the collapse of the Russian Empire." Now that we bored you with a history lesson of Estonia, how about some folklore. Including a ghost of a lighthouse keeper, a gentle giant, and other creatures.

    173 - Jenny Greenteeth

    According to the Villain's Wiki, "Jenny Greenteeth is a malevolent hag from English folklore associated with bodies of water such as rivers, streams and lakes - areas of land which the creature would haunt in order to lay in wait for unwary travelers to stray too close to the water's edge, at which point she would drag her victims into the water and drown them before devouring them : like many hags she had a fondness for killing and eating children but would attack any, regardless of age, that strayed into her path." What an interesting way to describe an odd creature. This week, Bob and Count investigate the strange case of Jenny Greenteeth, and several spooky news stories, including a black smoke ring, and haunted dolls. How exciting? There's also a viewer story by our pal Desmond.

    171 - Wholesome Ghost Stories

    What's the opposite of scary ghost stories? Well, not scary ghost stories! This week Bob went scouring the internet (mostly Reddit) to try and track down ghost stories that are not about demonic activity, or poltergeist activity. Stories of grandma's baked bread smells popping up when no one's cooking, hello's in dreams, and of course warnings from the other side that saved lives.

    170 - The Enfield Poltergeist aka The Enfield Haunting

    According to the BBC, "In August 1977, the police arrived at 284 Green Street in the north London suburb of Enfield. Peggy Hodgson, a single mother of four, reported that her two young daughters – Janet, aged 11, and older sister Margaret – had heard strange knocking. The source of the sound could not be determined. They called in the neighbours who were also disturbed by what they heard. Out of desperation, they rang the police, one of whom reportedly saw a chair move of its own accord. Next, they turned to the press. Over the next 18 months, stories of increasingly strange phenomena emerged from the house. Furniture was hurled across the rooms, there were reports of "paranormal whistling" and, most unsettling of all, Janet Hodgson was heard to talk with the rasping voice of an old man. The case came to the attention of the Society for Psychical Research (SPR), and two of its members, inventor turned paranormal investigator Maurice Grosse and writer Guy Lyon Playfair, were sent to investigate. Playfair would later publish a book, This House is Haunted, about his experiences." This case is absolutely batty! Steve Micheals joins us for a look at this haunting as we dissect the truths behind this case. Is this a Hooey case? Or was there something to the hauntings? Did we mention that there was also a run in with Ed and Lorraine Warren?

    169 - Enfield Horror

    According to the Cryptid Wiki, "During the early 1970s, something horrible stalked the small town of Enfield, Illinois. Although Illinois is already home to phenomena such as strange lights, phantom black panthers, and Thunderbirds, something even stranger briefly haunted the people of this town. On April 25th, 1973, Henry McDaniel was among the first to encounter this terrible aberration, the Enfield Horror." The story from here gets weirder and weirder. Joining us this week on Bob After Dark, is Steve Michaels. Pro wrestling superstar, paranormal investigator, and pseudo scientist. We also talk about the Build-a-Bear Mothman plush!

    168 - The Ajatar

    This week was case of tiny bits of lore, but an interesting discussion. Meet the Ajatar, a snake woman from Finnish Folklore that spreads disease and lures hunters to their death. Not a lot is known about her, but the little bit we did find out is worth some interesting discussion. We also talk about the Vatican's 50 miles worth of archival evidence of the paranormal, and spooky prom photos?

    167 - The Pishtaco

    Bob has noticed an interesting trend in his early streams on his Twitch channel. A small surge of viewers from Ecuador and Chile! So, what better way to reward than doing an episode about a piece of spooky folklore from their neck of the woods. Meet the Pishtaco. Not to be confused with a fish taco, the pishtaco is a strange vampiric creature who lives off of, get this, human fat. These things drain the fat out of a person, and feeds on it. Then, even stranger, they sell this fat to the beauty care companies out of Europe. These are vampires who don't have the stereotypical look to a classic blood sucker. They look like everyday folk, but with something just...off about them. What is interesting is that this is the MAJOR big bad of that neck of the woods. To this day, rural areas in the Ande mountain area still believe in the Pishtaco. Also, Count Panek and Bob talk about the life span of a ghost, and Mothman rootbeer!
