Returning guest Lance Compton joins the show to discuss Granny Witches and Appalachian Folk Magic. We dive into the origins of granny witches and how the practice came to be the norm in the early stages of Appalachia and how it's carried over to today. A blending of Native American spiritualism and Scots-Irish practice and tradition, with the help of Cherokee Little People and Fairies? This is a good one! Tune in and enjoy.

Owner and proprietor of the Old Hospital on College Hill in Williamson, West Virginia, Tonya Webb, joins the show to discuss the history and paranormal relevance of the hospital. Tonya shares stories and her personal experiences with the paranormal. Justin also shares his paranormal experience while visiting the old hospital. This episode gets really creepy. Disembodied voices, full apparitions, child's laughter, you name it, Tonya talks about it. This is a location we will be going to investigate! Y'all enjoy!

The 37th Parallel, also called the paranormal or extraterrestrial highway, is an imaginary line that wraps around the globe accounting for the 37th degree latitude. The weird thing is the insanely vast amount of reports of high strangeness that happen along this imaginary line. Ghosts, poltergeist, cryptids, UFOs, Extraterrestrials, cattle mutilation, massive cave entries, and military bases, just to name a few. This line runs through places like Skinwalker Ranch, Area 51, Fort Knox, and you guessed it, right through our backyard in the heart of Appalachia. Dive into the deep end of the weird pool with us on this one.

Adam Stokes is a biblical scholar, theologian, author, expert on giants and the mound builders in North America, and all around great guy. Adam comes onto the show to talk about the existence of giants in North America, their civilization, technology, where they came from, and why their existence is being hidden. If US Presidents such as Abraham Lincoln and Thomas Jefferson talked about an ancient race of giants in America, why is it outside the realm of possibility today? This was a really fun episode that covers many possibilities for many different things. Tune in and enjoy!

Great friend of the show, Lance Compton, joins the crew today to dive deep into scripture, Genesis 6 to be exact. Lance explains his thoughts on the nephilim described in Genesis 6.  We also get into Nimrod, the tower of Babel, and the possible beginnings of the occult.  We dive really deep in this one.  This was a really fun episode (despite Justin's internet lagging the entire time.  Apologies for that.)  Put on your thinking cap for this one and jump into the deep end with us.  Enjoy!

The late, great bluegrass legend Bill Monroe once sang, "I'd rather be in some dark holler." I don't think he was talking about this one. In this episode we sit down with Ward Hiney and discuss his soon to be released documentary series Dark Holler. Dark Holler covers the supernatural events involving one particular family in Southern West Virginia. Ward witnessed a ton of high strangeness while filming, producing, and directing this series. This episode is full of spooky synchronicities and at times is downright jaw dropping. If you like creepy then you'll love this!

Y'all don't want to miss this one! It is a spine tingling episode!
