    Spirit Communication Exposed: Real Techniques, Safe Practices, and the Problems Nobody Talks About

    Stephanie is back with me on the NVus Alien Podcast to talk about spirit communication the way it actually works. No theatrics. No overpriced boxes that claim to talk to the dead. No “quantum immortality” sales pitch disguised as paranormal education. We start with what we’ve seen in the field after years of investigating so-called haunted locations across the country. Then we get into a recent metaphysical fair where a man ran a public “talk to your dead loved one” demo that crossed ethical lines. He used a machine, picked a girl under sixteen who was already emotional, asked leading questions, gave her nothing for grounding or protection, and left her crying while calling it a successful session. That kind of performance is exactly why people get hurt and why the paranormal world gets messy.

    Childhood Psychic Experiences and Family Phenomena

    This episode has been fully re-edited and re-uploaded. Cleaner audio, tighter flow, same haunted childhood chaos. Heather sits down with her sisters, Sarah and Rachel, to dig into the childhood psychic moments and family hauntings that shaped everything that came later. They talk through the strange stuff they grew up with, the intuition nobody explained, and the heavier family patterns that threaded through all of it. The conversation moves from ghost sightings to psychic hits to the medical weirdness that still doesn’t have a clear answer. It’s the root system of the phenomenon, told by the people who lived it.

    The Gates of Hell, Shadow Entities, and Bigfoot in Oklahoma

    In this episode, Heather Woodward sits down with Jason Walker to talk about the kind of paranormal encounters that don’t fade with time. Jason has been doing this work for decades, and his stories hit every layer of the weird: childhood encounters with so-called devil worshipers, a run-in at an infamous “Gates of Hell” cemetery, and entities that moved with purpose instead of drifting like typical hauntings.

    Tall Shadow Figures, Antler Entities and Paranormal Encounters in the Woods

    In this episode, Gabrielle and Jody from Podcast of the Paranormal to talk about repeated encounters in the forests of Northeastern Pennsylvania, where the activity doesn’t feel random, and the land itself seems involved. Their investigations have brought them into contact with shadow figures and tall, human-shaped forms that show up in the same types of locations over and over again. These aren’t quick glimpses or one-off scares. The activity builds with time spent in the area. Lights appear where they shouldn’t. Figures move through the tree line. The feeling of being watched comes before anything is seen. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/nvus-alien--4798594/support. 🛸 Love what you heard?

    Beyond Bigfoot: Voices, Shadows, and High Strangeness

    In this episode, Heather Woodward sits down with field investigator and documentary filmmaker Coleman Atchley to talk about what happens when Bigfoot research stops being about tracks and sightings and starts bleeding into something far stranger. Coleman shares how his work in the field quickly expanded beyond cryptids and into full-spectrum paranormal territory. EVP captures. Disembodied voices. Shadow figures. Encounters that refuse to stay neatly categorized. Through his investigations and his documentary Whispers from the Woods, Coleman has seen firsthand how often Bigfoot activity overlaps with classic paranormal phenomena.

    The Afterlife Circus of Elmer McCurdy: The Mummified Outlaw Who Became a Sideshow Attraction

    In this episode of the NVus Alien Podcast, Heather Woodward is joined by Michael Williams, Director of the Oklahoma Territorial Museum and the Historic Carnegie Library, to unravel one of the strangest true crime stories in American history.  Elmer McCurdy was a failed train robber in the early 1900s. In life, he was forgettable. In death, he became famous. After being killed in a shootout in 1911, McCurdy’s embalmed body was never claimed. What happened next sounds like an urban legend, but it’s documented history. His mummified remains were displayed in carnivals, traveling sideshows, wax museums, and even on a Hollywood film set. For sixty-five years, people paid money to stare at him.  Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/nvus-alien--4798594/support. 🛸 Love what you heard?

  7. The Menendez Brothers and the Rot Inside the American Dream

    The Menendez Brothers and the Rot Inside the American Dream

    The Menendez case is one of the most infamous true crime stories in American history, and it still won’t stay buried. In this episode of the NVus Alien Podcast, Heather Woodward revisits the murders of José and Kitty Menendez, the Beverly Hills crime scene that stunned the country, and the trials that turned Lyle and Erik Menendez into a permanent cultural obsession. The media framed it as greed. The prosecution framed it as cold-blooded murder. The defense framed it as survival after years of alleged sexual abuse and family violence. For decades, the public has fought over which story is real, and why the justice system only seemed interested in one of them. Heather breaks down the key details of the Menendez brothers case, including the brutality of the killings, the first televised trial that became national theater, and the second trial that reshaped the outcome. She also digs into why public opinion has shifted in recent years, fueled by documentaries, social media, and renewed attention to trauma, coercive control, and the ways abuse is misunderstood in courtrooms.

  8. The Abbey’s Calling: Portals, Past Lives, and the Weird Stuff That Follows You Home

    The Abbey’s Calling: Portals, Past Lives, and the Weird Stuff That Follows You Home

    In this episode of the NVus Alien Podcast, Heather and Stephanie return to the haunted abbey that sparked one of their most intense shared paranormal experiences. What began as a 2021 visit to a historic abbey site evolved into an ongoing investigation involving portals, past life memories, ritual work, synchronicities, and unexplained energetic phenomena. They revisit the rituals performed at the abbey, the spontaneous emergence of light language, the déjà vu that felt more like timeline bleed-through, and the strange energy shifts that occurred between 2021 and 2022. What started as a paranormal exploration slowly unfolded into something deeper. A multi-year initiation that refuses to close. From past life recall and reincarnation themes to synchronicity loops that seem engineered, new people enter the story with connections that shouldn’t logically exist. The abbey becomes more than a location. It feels like a portal. A mirror. A trigger point for transformation. Some haunted locations hold residual energy. Others activate something personal. As the story deepens, everything circles back to Heather’s sister and a relationship that unexpectedly connects to the original abbey experience. The question shifts from “what happened there?” to “why did it follow us?” Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/nvus-alien--4798594/support. 🛸 Love what you heard?
