    The Sandling Sighting

    The Sandling Sighting: The Bat-Faced Being of Kent ⚠️ Content Warning: This episode contains descriptions of an alleged extraterrestrial encounter and a non-human entity that some listeners may find unsettling. Listener discretion is advised. Kent, England. Autumn 1974. A quiet county of winding lanes and ancient oaks. The kind of place where nothing ever happens. Four boys were walking home through the woods. A shortcut they had taken a hundred times before. Then they saw a light — silent, glowing, descending from the sky. No sound. No engine. Just a controlled, deliberate arc into the trees ahead of them. They did what twelve-year-olds do. They followed it. What they found in that clearing has never been explained. In this solo episode Bubah tells the full story of the Sandling Sighting — one of the most compelling and consistently documented UFO encounters in British history. Four credible witnesses. Separate police interviews. Testimony that never changed. Physical traces at the landing site. And a description of something standing beside the craft that no theory has fully accounted for in fifty years. Z will be back with us soon. Until then — the echoes remain. Have you had an encounter you can't explain? We want to hear it. Email: EchosOfThaPast@gmail.comX: @EchosPoddCastFacebook: Search Echosofthepast — where the paranormal is normal!

    Shaman's Portal: The Vanishing Place of Beaver Dunes

    Shaman's Portal: The Vanishing Place of Beaver Dunes ⚠️ Content Warning: This episode contains discussions of unexplained disappearances, eerie lights, and unsettling folklore. Listener discretion is advised. Beaver, Oklahoma. The panhandle. A stretch of sand and scrub that seems to go on forever. A place that was once called No Man's Land — lawless, borderless, belonging to nobody. People have been disappearing here for over 500 years. Spanish explorers. Native Americans. Modern campers. They walk into the dunes and they don't come back. Some say they saw a green light first. A flash. A pulse. Then nothing. The Native tribes who knew this land called it the Shaman's Portal — a gateway between worlds. They warned Coronado's men not to enter. They called it an evil place. They refused to go in themselves, even at gunpoint. Coronado sent his men in anyway. Three of them never came back. In this solo episode, Bubah tells the stories — from Coronado's lost men in 1540, to a ranger who led teenagers out of the dunes fifteen years after he died, to a loyal dog that vanished in front of his owner's eyes while a green light pulsed in the sand. He walks through every theory — interdimensional portal, UFO crash site, ancient burial ground, electromagnetic anomaly — and gives you the facts, every one of them. And he asks the question the Oklahoma panhandle has been asking for five centuries: what lies beneath those dunes? Z will be back with us soon. Until then — the echoes remain. Have you been to Beaver Dunes? Have you seen the green light? We want to hear it. Email: EchosOfThaPast@gmail.comX: @EchosPoddCastFacebook: Search Echosofthepast — where the paranormal is normal!

    The Chupa-Chupa: When the Sky Attacked Colares

    The Chupa-Chupa: When the Sky Attacked Colares ⚠️ Content Warning: This episode contains descriptions of unexplained injuries, radiation burns, and reports of death. Listener discretion is advised. Colares, Brazil. 1977. A quiet fishing village at the mouth of the Amazon. Two thousand people living simply — fishing, farming, watching the river. Then the lights came. They came through windows. Through roofs. Through walls. They paralyzed people where they slept. They burned skin. They drained blood. They left puncture marks no doctor could explain. The people called it chupa-chupa. The sucker. They lit bonfires. They shot fireworks into the sky. They begged the government to help. And the government sent the military — a secret operation called Operação Prato. Operation Saucer. The officer who led it interviewed 80 witnesses. He tracked the lights on radar. He photographed them. His own men got sick. And when it was over, he said he was certain they had been dealing with something beyond human understanding. The files were classified. The operation was shut down. The government told the doctor who treated the victims to call it mass hysteria. She refused. In this episode, Bubah tells the full story — the witnesses, the wounds, the military investigation, and the question that nearly fifty years still hasn't answered: what came for the people of Colares in 1977? The lights have never returned. But the scars remain. Have you experienced something you can't explain? We want to hear it.

    Caught on the Fringe: Four True Encounters with the Unseen

    ⚠️ Content Warning: This episode contains discussions of stalking, home intrusion, and deeply unsettling imagery. Listener discretion is advised. They say the most terrifying things happen in the dark. But sometimes, the darkness isn't the problem. These are not legends from distant places. Not ancient folklore. Not cryptids in faraway forests. These are four encounters that happened to ordinary people — in the places they felt most safe. And not one of them has a clean explanation. In this solo episode, Bubah sits down with four firsthand accounts from people who saw something that didn't belong. Something that still hasn't left them. He tells each story in full — then pulls them apart, looking at what science says, what folklore says, and what that still doesn't account for. Four encounters. Four kinds of fear. The echoes remain. Have you seen something you can't explain? We want to hear it — you don't need to use your real name.

    The Chameleon Killer:Terry Rasmussen

    ⚠️ Content Warning: This episode contains graphic descriptions of murder, dismemberment, and the killing of multiple children including a toddler. This is one of the most disturbing cases in Echos of the Past history. Listener discretion is strongly advised. New Hampshire. Bear Brook State Park. November 1985. A hunter found a rusted 55-gallon drum hidden in the woods. Inside: a woman and a young girl. Beaten beyond recognition. Decapitated. Wrapped in plastic like garbage. No missing persons report matched them. No one came forward. For fifteen years, they had no names. Then in May 2000, investigators found a second barrel — hidden just 100 yards from the first. Inside: two more children. Four victims. A mother. Her two daughters. And a child whose own father would one day be her killer. His name was Terry Peder Rasmussen. He went by Bob Evans, Curtis Kimball, Gordon Jenson, Larry Vanner. He was an electrician, a handyman, a boyfriend, a stepfather. He had twinkling blue eyes and a soft voice. He smiled at neighbors and tucked children into bed. He killed his girlfriends. He killed their children. He killed his own two-year-old daughter and put her body in a barrel next to the woman he murdered. He buried another woman under hundreds of pounds of cat litter in her own garage. He kidnapped a six-month-old baby and raised her as his own — then abandoned her with strangers when she was five, like she meant nothing. And by the time anyone knew who he really was, he was already dead. In this solo episode, Bubah tells the full story — the Bear Brook barrels, the decades of silence, the DNA breakthroughs that gave four victims their names back, the murder that finally caught him, and the question that still has no answer: how many more are out there? Rea. Marie. Sarah. Marlyse. Eunsoon. You are not forgotten.

    DANCE or DIE: The Axeman of New Orleans

    Dance or Die: The Axeman of New Orleans ⚠️ Content Warning: This episode contains detailed descriptions of murder, home invasion, and violence spanning multiple attacks. Listener discretion is strongly advised. New Orleans, 1918. A city built on music, celebration, and the sound of jazz drifting from every open window. And then, in the dead of night, a shadow. A chisel against a back door panel. A figure moving through a sleeping house. An axe rising and falling in the dark. For eighteen months, the Axeman of New Orleans stalked the city. He targeted Italian grocers — families asleep above their shops, vulnerable, unprotected. He killed six people. He wounded at least six more. He changed his method but never his purpose. And he was never caught. Then he wrote a letter. Addressed to "Esteemed Mortal" and dated from Hell, the letter made the city an offer: play jazz music at exactly 12:15 AM on Tuesday night and be spared. Anyone in a home without jazz playing would get the axe. New Orleans played jazz. Every dance hall. Every home. Every street corner. A local composer wrote a song for the occasion. The city danced — terrified — for its life. No one was killed that night. In this episode, Bubah and Z tell the full story — the 1891 mass lynching that set the stage, every attack from the 1912 Sciambra murders through the 1919 Pepitone killing, the flawed investigation that arrested multiple innocent people, the night an entire city danced to survive, and the theory Z raises that nobody else seems to have considered about why the Axeman picked that particular Tuesday night. The killer vanished as suddenly as he appeared. He was never identified. And somewhere, he probably lived out the rest of his life like a normal man. That's the part that should keep you up at night.

    A Town That Won't Talk:The Alonzo Brooks Murder

    ⚠️ Content Warning: This episode contains detailed discussions of death, racial violence, and the aftermath of an unsolved murder. Listener discretion is strongly advised. April 3, 2004. La Cygne, Kansas. A 23-year-old man rode to a house party with his friends. One left to buy cigarettes and got lost. One left after a confrontation. A third was supposed to give him a ride home. He left without him. Alonzo Brooks never came home. He was one of only three Black men at a party of over 100 people. He was called racial slurs. There were confrontations. And when his friends drove back to Gardner that night, each one assumed someone else had made sure Alonzo had a way home. The next morning, his mother Maria checked his room. His bed was empty. His boots were gone. She called the police. She was told to wait. She was told young men sometimes disappear. She was told he would probably come back. Maria knew her son. He always called if he was going to be late. He never disappeared without a word. She knew something was terribly wrong. Law enforcement searched the area and found nothing. After nearly a month of silence, Maria organized her own search party and drove to La Cygne. She found Alonzo's body in under an hour — in an area that had already been searched. His boots and hat had been thrown in different directions. His body showed signs that told Maria he had not been in that creek for 27 days. In 2020, Netflix's Unsolved Mysteries brought the case to a national audience. The FBI reopened the investigation, offered a $100,000 reward, and exhumed Alonzo's remains. On March 31, 2026, the Armed Forces Medical Examiner made it official: Alonzo Brooks was murdered. No one has been arrested. The code of silence is still intact. Someone knows what happened that night. In this solo episode, Bubah tells the full story — who Alonzo was, what happened at that party, the flawed investigation, his mother's 22-year fight, and the truth that finally refuses to stay buried. If you have information, please contact: FBI Kansas City: (816) 512-8200 Online tips: tips.fbi.gov $100,000 reward for information leading to an arrest.
