    Kelly Hopkinsville Encounter - Part 1

    Kelly Hopkinsville Encounter - Part 1

    Woah a 2 parter! Our First! We. Are. Back,

    Those pesky men in silver suits or whatever they are were bugging Elmer and Billy Ray and Glennie down in Kentucky. Are the little green men a hoax perpetuated by the 11 inhabitants of a small farmhouse, or did they actually see something that night in August? 

    Excuse the sniffling. I tried to cut it out but boy is it a lot, and honestly, this is part of the reason we were gone.

    The Hauntings of Sprucevale, Ohio

    Happppppyyyyy Halloween!

    Mike walks us through some spooky local tales about an old-timey ghost town turned into a state park, including some classic ghost stories that originated there! Join us for a spirit-tacular, haunting episode and listen to the tales of what lurks in Beaver Creek.

    Here are some sources I used, but a lot of knowledge also comes from being a local:

    Black-Eyed Children

    A Dan-centric episode today! We chat about the internet urban legend of Black-Eyed Children, apparently aka BEKs, while also getting very derailed.

    Here are some of those sources we used:
