    Flatwoods Monster: The 1952 Encounter

    On this episode, we walk through the 1952 Flatwoods encounter in Braxton County, West Virginia. We cover the eyewitness accounts from the May family and Eugene Lemon, the reported crash on the hill, the physical symptoms described by the boys, and the immediate media attention that followed. We look at the government response, including National Guard involvement, Project Blue Book’s on‑site investigation, and the conflicting claims about recovered materials. We break down the major theories: the meteor explanation, the barn owl hypothesis, and the Cold War prototype idea. We also touch on the local reports of lights in the sky that same night and how Cold War fear shaped the way people interpreted what they saw. Find us on TikTok and Instagram at @downthecrookedpath.

    This episode looks at the reports that came in before the Aberfan disaster.

    The Haunting of Sallie House

    In this episode, we go through the historyconnected to the Sallie House, the claims that built the story, and the details that followed the Pickman family after they moved in. We cover the background of the property, the origins of the “Sallie” name, the reports that came out of the house in the 1990s, and the parts of the story that never matched the records. We also include the theories that formed around the case, the role local tourism played in keeping the legend alive, and the questions that still surround the house today.

  5. The Pazuzu Algarad Case

    The Pazuzu Algarad Case

    In this episode we walk through the case of Pazuzu Algarad, a story shaped by neglect, untreated mental illness, and a community that missed every warning sign. We look at the victims, the failures that allowed the violence to continue, and the impact on the people who lived around that house on Knob Hill Drive. This is not a story about the occult. It is a story about what happens when systems break down and no one steps in. We cover the timeline of the investigation, the pleas from Amber Burch and Krystal Matlock, the questions surrounding Pazuzu’s death in custody, and the demolition of the house that became a symbol of everything that went wrong. We also talk about how the media leaned into satanic panic instead of the real issues at the center of the case. If you want to dig deeper into the themes we touched on, this episode pairs well with discussions about mental health access, community responsibility, and the long term effects of violence on neighborhoods.

  6. Canadian Creepies Edition: The Curse of Bird Rock Island

    Canadian Creepies Edition: The Curse of Bird Rock Island

    This week, we’re pulling from our Tuesday segment on the Canadian Creepies podcast and heading out to Bird Rock off the coast of Quebec — a place with more trouble than landmass. The lighthouse out there has a long history of bad luck, disappearances, and one story that locals still talk about in lowered voices. Keep in mind, this is a rock barely big enough to stand on, yet somehow it managed to collect more tragedy than most towns. We walk through the early shipwrecks, the lighthouse keepers who didn’t make it home, and the strange run of events that gave Bird Rock its reputation. It’s one of those places where the line between accident and something else gets thin fast. You can find me on Instagram at @downthecrookedpath, and you can follow Canadian Creepies on Instagram as well for updates, behind‑the‑scenes bits, and our weekly Tuesday deep dives.

    The Axeman of New Orleans

    In this episode, we look at the Axeman of New Orleans and the panic that followed him through the city. We go through the attacks on grocery families, the letter printed in the Times Picayune, the chalk message near the Maggio home, and the suspects who were pulled into the story over the years. We also look at how newspapers shaped the case, how the investigation stalled, and why the Axeman disappeared as suddenly as he arrived.
