Campfire: Tales of the Strange and Unsettling

Nome, Alaska has a population of only 3,500. Since 1960, 24 people have vanished from their shores without a trace. This week, we’re doing our absolute best to make sense of the shocking frequency that this has taken place. Speculation has run rampant over the decades. Everything from alien abductions to Nome’s very own serial killer. So, what is the key to these remarkable vanishings? Join us and find out.

Campfire: Tales of the Strange and Unsettling is created for adult audiences only. The content and discussion in this show will necessarily engage with various accounts that include violence, anxiety, fear, and occasional body horror. Much of it will be emotionally and intellectually challenging to engage with. We will flag especially graphic or intense content so as to never put you in an uninformed or unprepared position. We will do our best to make this a space where we can engage bravely, empathetically, and thoughtfully with difficult content every week.

This week, we had the distinct pleasure of sitting down with one of the show’s closest friends. She is the head researcher for Small Town Monsters, the mastermind behind STM Publishing, and a contributing writer to The Feminine Macabre. In addition to all of the professional and academic accomplishments that the scene knows her so well for, Heather Moser also happens to be an extremely dedicated ghost hunter! For this interview, it is here that our focus lies. We discuss the special place that ghost hunting has had in her life and in her journey of self-discovery through exposure to the paranormal. This is a great bit of lesser-known history about someone that we all know and love. As always, go support Heather in everything that she does. Enjoy!

Join us as we return to one of our favorite stories to date, the Kentucky Goblins. We have cleaned up the original episode, added sound design, made it easier to follow and provided a more modern and exciting approach. Don't miss it.

In a story investigated by Project Bluebook in the summer of 1955, a Hopkinsville family spent most of a day in an armed conflict with a gang of extraterrestrial miscreants and all they got was a festival named after them! OWLS AREN’T THAT TALL.

This week, we sat down for a riveting conversation with the host of one of our favorite new podcasts, Haunts. Courtney Hayes is a writer and paranormal researcher who has visited some amazing, haunted locations. This time, we discuss the time that she spent as a guest at the infamous Stanley Hotel. Not only is this place the inspiration for the setting of Stephen King’s The Shining, but it is also the place where the Estes Method was created. We also get to hear about her personal origins and learn what exactly it is that gets someone hooked on the terrifying tales.

Enjoy!

In 1982, Darren Evans and his then-girlfriend found an Ouija board buried below a house being remodeled along with a series of jars containing the remains of unidentified blackbirds. After bringing the board into their home, a strange series of events slowly took over their lives. Was Darren’s obsession with the board simple addiction or demonic possession? We’ll discuss the origins of this purported demonic entity that has been blamed for famous cases from the Enfield Poltergeist to the Possession of Roland Doe.

This week, we’re discussing a tale from deep in the heart of the Siberian wilderness. In 1961, a team of soviet paratroopers were sent on a search and rescue mission for a downed plane that had been spotted two days before. Thousands of miles off the nearest flight path, the mysterious abandoned craft created far more questions than answers. Do these circumstances point to a clear example of extraterrestrial interference or is this simply a fantastic military urban legend? You be the judge.

Fireside Chats: Creepy Hot Girl Shit with Codie Crowley

This week, we had the honor of sitting down with author and host of the YouTube show, Graveyard Dirt, Codie Crowley. Codie is without a doubt brilliant, fascinating, and wildly creative. Come for the entrancing Jersey accent and stay for the mind-bending theories on everything from the influence of Pangean land formations on the development of folklore to Geoff the Talking Mongoose and your favorite Lake Monster. We discuss a wide swath of cases across the fortean spectrum and even get into an intense UFO interaction. Go follow her on absolutely everything. You both deserve it.

This week, we’re discussing another home-state legend. In 1899, (or 1901, depending on which source you reference), Dr. John and Jessie Gibbons purchased the house from the original owners, Dr. George and Sarah White. Dr. John and Jessie Gibbons reportedly adopted abandoned/orphaned children. One of these children, a 10-year-old girl named Rachael, started a fire in the front parlor, being badly burned, and died two days later in one of the upstairs bedrooms. But, according to tales told all around the country, you can still hear, and sometimes see, her running around the house today…

This week, we decided to experiment with AI. Each of us sat down with ChatGPT and attempted to create the scariest stories possible. And so, we have for you two terrifying tales generated by our future overlords.

Our first story, Beneath the Surface: The Horrors of Ashford, follows a young woman as she attempts to fit into a small town with more secrets than she would ever imagine. 

Our second tale, Dream Home, turns the classic haunted house story on its head. Will the Smith family ever find peace in their creepy Victorian estate? 

These stories are works of fiction. Any names or characters, businesses or places, events or incidents, are fictitious. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events is purely coincidental.

Campfire: Tales of the Strange and Unsettling is created for adult audiences only. The content and discussion in this show will necessarily engage with various accounts that include violence, anxiety, fear, and occasional body horror. Much of it will be emotionally and intellectually challenging to engage with. We will flag especially graphic or intense content so as to never put you in an uninformed or unprepared position. We will do our best to make this a space where we can engage bravely, empathetically, and thoughtfully with difficult content every week.
