Aokigahara: the Suicide Forest
In honor of Japan partially opening its borders to the wider world, today we take a look at one of the scariest places not only in that nation but perhaps the world: Aokigahara (青木ヶ原). Listen in to learn about some of its history, just what makes it so scary, and what horror film you should watch if you want to experience the atmosphere of these dark woods! (And hint, it is definitely not that horrid film The Forest!)

Misfit in Hell
Curious about Near Death Experiences or NDEs? Ever wondered what hell might be like? In this episode, satisfy both by listening to an interview with MK McDaniel, author of Misfit in Hell to Heaven Expat, as she relates the experience she had in hell when she was in a coma. Although I say this in the intro to the episode, please note that many of the things discussed are distressing, so viewer caution is advised.

Keep up the good work!
Fascinating topic, incredibly well researched, academically thorough but not dull, and truly a pleasure to listen to.
Worth the listen.

Great Podcast
Great podcast on the weird, the strange, the paranormal, bridging common themes from ancient and modern times. If you love this show and haven’t already, you must, must, MUST pick up Michael Heiser’s book The Unseen Realm. You will NOT regret it.
