    #102 - Liminal Spaces Haunt Your Reality

    In this chilling episode of It’s Cryptic Out There, we dive into the unsettling world of liminal spaces—those eerie, transitional zones like endless empty hallways, abandoned shopping malls at dusk, or dimly lit office buildings after hours that evoke a deep, instinctual fear. Why do these familiar yet forgotten places trigger such profound unease, making us feel like we’re teetering on the edge of reality? We’ll explore the psychology behind this phenomenon, from feelings of isolation and nostalgia gone wrong to the dread of the unknown lurking just beyond the threshold. Shifting to real-world viral mysteries, we also unpack the bizarre TikTok frenzy surrounding a supposed mysterious ice cream truck in Virginia. In mid-2025, videos exploded across the platform claiming that a creepy, unmarked truck with tinted windows and no visible menu was spotted roaming neighborhoods at night, allegedly luring children with eerie music and leading to rumors of over 100 kids going missing in mass abductions. Blurry footage and frantic user stories fueled the panic, drawing parallels to urban legends of child predators, though investigations and online sleuths quickly labeled it a hoax amplified by social media hysteria. Is it a modern-day moral panic, or something more sinister? Tune in as we sift through the facts, folklore, and fear. CRYPTIC HOTLINE: (615) 447-8258 @itscrypticoutthere@gmail.com

    #99 - Outlaw Bikers of Appalachia

    In this episode, It’s Cryptic Out There rides into the shadowed highways of Appalachia to explore one of America’s most notorious outlaw biker clubs—the Pagan’s Motorcycle Club. Founded in the late 1950s, the Pagans carved their way into history with a strict, often brutal code that governs loyalty, secrecy, and brotherhood. But in the rugged, tight-knit communities of Appalachia, that code takes on a unique life of its own. We uncover how the club’s presence blends into the region’s culture of independence, resilience, and mistrust of outsiders—while also examining the myths, the crimes, and the rituals that keep the Pagan name feared and respected. From their biker “colors” to their rules about loyalty, retribution, and respect, this is an unflinching look at the world of an outlaw MC where the mountains hide more than just winding roads. itscrypticoutthere@gmail.com Cryptic Hotline: (615) 447-8258
