Belief Hole | Paranormal, Mysteries and Other Tasty Thought Snacks

A startling ring in the middle of the night. The strange and distant voice on the line seems familiar, someone you've known, yet someone whose left this world behind.  It's a call that shouldn't be possible- a transdimensional connection that defies our current understanding.. until now. Join us in the Hole as we peel back the pages of forgotten, ground breaking research to uncover the true stories of Phone Calls from the Dead and the innovators of both past and present whose mission of patching us through to the other side is becoming a potential reality.

Beginning with such pioneers of Spirit Technology as Captain Craufurd (the Wireless Man) and Logie Baird (the Black Magic Man) we break down not only their revolutionary contribution to terrestrial telecommunication, but their fascination and innovation in the realm of Instrumental Transcommunication.

Then, through the work of the renowned Parapsychologist D. Scott Rogo and his intrepid contemporaries, we investigate the longest of long-distance calls and discover the patterns in which these disembodied dial-ups seem to manifest, and what they might indicate for mankind.

Finally, we discuss the mind-bending announcement that a group known as the SpiritPhone Foundation is claiming a sort of Afterlife Disclosure via a break through in modern tech, allowing contact with the dead.. And yes, you too can have your very own Spirit Keyboard to commune with the other side whenever you might feel brave enough to shoot a text out into the void!.. gives a whole new meaning to the phrase ‘ghosting’, doesn’t it?

Also, Jeremy’s Pranks Chris, Winds of the Other World and Freddie Kruegers 80’s Hotline... Nightmarish Rates May Apply.

The road is long, and its dark and lonely turns lure unsuspecting victims for the unnamable things that lie in wait to feed. We've all heard the stories, and some unfortunates among us have even experienced, a confounding and hellish visitation by some 'strange other' while on the road.

On this episode, we bring you true stories of roadway surreality. From Screaming Trench Coat Demons to Interdimensional Centerline Walkers to the sweet sweet kisses of a Phantom Truck Stop Lover, we've got your lust for the night drive tale covered!

So flip on your high beams, because there's a dimly lit detour ahead.. through the Belief Hole!

Are silent and spinning, black pyramids watching us from the skies above? The recent Pentagon Confimation of leaked footage showing Pyramidal UFOs and Images of other bizarre UAPs captured by the NAVY suggest there is a copious variety of secret somethings traversing our atmosphere. What are they and where do they come from? How did the paranormal experience of a DIA scientist at Skinwalker Ranch spark the beginnings of a now disclosed Pentagon UFO (UAP) Program? And if disclosure does come, can we trust those who claim to be revealing ‘the truth’ after years of ridicule and disinformation? Join us in the Hole as we start at the beginning and try to break down programs like ATTIP, NIDS, BAASS and AAWSAP, recount corroborating eye-witness accounts of eerie pyramids surveying neighborhoods and discuss the covert media infiltration that is hilarious at best and sinister at worst. So grab your night vision goggles and your best running shoes, because tonight we explore the clandestine skies and the secrets they keep!

Among the foreboding forests and ancient swamps of New England stirs a sleepless force – a fuel for unusual phenomena. Described as a ‘Paranormal Disney World’, the Bridgewater Triangle is a veritable smorgasbord of paranormal activity and high strangeness, and at its dark beating heart - the mysterious Hockomock Swamp. This phenomena includes, but is not limited to:

UFOs, Bigfoot, Red-Headed Hitchhikers, Ghost Lights, Demon Dogs, Occult Rituals, Swamp Spirits, and of course.. Pukwudgies (the mysterious and menacing little people of the Wampanoag people).

Our story begins with a man and his vacuum tube radio in Grosseto, Italy, in 1949. There Marcello Bacci sat, one hand caressing his radio, and the other carefully turning the dial, tuning in his strange transmissions. Not music, news broadcasts or normal radio programs, but rather.. voices from beyond. Voices of spirit. Voices of the dead.

For decades Bacci would hold sessions in tightly packed rooms filled with grieving mothers and family members of those who've crossed over. And while he could be classified as a medium, what makes him unique is that he didn't channel the spirits or entities himself, but rather, they spoke through his radio, in their own warbly voices, recognizable to those that knew them in life. 

Following in the footsteps of Fathers Ernetti and Gemelli, as well as Friedrich Juergenson - the father of EVP, Bacci, along with his contemporaries in the Scole group, reached through the ether using a process known as ITC (Instrumental Transcommunication) to collect audio and video evidence of a dimension beyond death.  A realm where voices seem to be trying to reach back to us.

Are these really the voices of the dead? Is there a way to tune in voices and images from dimensions beyond our own? What might we learn from these strange transmissions and broadcasts from beyond?

Also.. Edison’s Spirit Phone, and Jeremy thinks little people live inside you.

'Disembodied Voices: true accounts of hidden begins' is a fascinating work by Tim Marczenko, wherein he recovers forgotten lore from private collections and research centers and speaks with witnesses who've encountered anomalous, disembodied voices- some that help, some that haunt, and some that seem to be hunting.. us! We discuss the possible suspects (the Leshi, the Nishi, the Great Pan), the Missing 411 connection and dig into some truly bizarre first-hand encounters.

Some call it "Backwoods Magic". Others say, "Hillfolk Hoodoo," "Mountain Conjure", or just "the Work."

Whatever you call it, it is the enduring folk magic that haunts the hollers and lingers within the misty slopes of the Appalachian mountains.

Join us as we explore the wonder and rich tradition of practiced Appalachian folk Magic, as well as the fascinating (yet often overlooked) folklore and history of the region.

(Special Expansion Release) You may have noticed the particularly innocent and perhaps magical lens through which children often perceive the world. While sometimes this may produce beautiful interpretations of reality, or adorably naïve questions, other times it can produce some truly chilling moments.

From kids recounting past lives, to the floating creature on the ceiling, we explore the spectrum of creepy things that kids say.. and discuss some true babysitting horror stories.
