Campfire: Tales of the Strange and Unsettling

It’s 2024! Happy New Year! 2023 was a fantastic year for us as a show and as people! We’ve gathered here to discuss all of our favorite parts of it! Movies! Music! Games! Podcasts! Everything that we loved from this year. Everything that made our lives better this year. And, of course, we discuss each of our top five Campfire episodes from the year and talk about our experience researching each of them. We had a great time breaking the year down. Enjoy!

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.

Welcome to Ravenbrook. A town in northern Maine where mystery grows like a crop, monsters lurk at every tree line, and phantoms travel through more shadows than not. In this week’s first tale, we get to know a young doctor whose troubled past brings him back to the town of his turbulent youth. Get ready for this tale that explores the space between mental illness and Forteana. We follow that with a Christmas tale that simultaneously gives us our first taste of New England folk magic AND we get a few more clues about the mysterious founding of our creepy little settlement. Sit back and enjoy two more Tales From Ravenbrook!

In honor of the holiday season and us working on going back to add sound design to previous episodes, we have have decided to revisit and create a reimagining of our popular Pope Lick Monster episode. Story has been redone. New music. Added sound design. And, a better flow of the debrief. Enjoy!

This week, we’re headed back to the North-Kentucky brush country where just 20 miles east of Louisville sits the small township of Pope Lick. Beneath the century-old Pope Lick Trestle Bridge, legend says that a maniacal monstrosity creeps through the underbrush waiting for the opportunity to lure its next victim with its siren song; straight into a head-on collision with an oncoming locomotive. With a body count nearing double digits, this goat man stands near the top of the cryptid catalog. Is this an aged sideshow performer consumed with bitterness? The unintentional result of some misguided attempt T gene splicing? or a diabolical entity stalking the Kentucky countryside?

Either way, A TRAIN IS COMING!

For this week’s addition to the Campfire Classics Collection, we have decided to bring back the timeless pastime of telling scary stories around the Christmas holiday. For this particular episode, we are telling the tale of "Smee" from famed author, A.M. Burgess. Burgess is a British writer, born in Hillingdon, London, in 1889. He was noted in his time as an author of fiction for boys which he published under the pseudonym Frank Lelland, including a popular series called "Tufty". After his death, however, Burrage became best known for his ghost stories.

Since the early days of European culture, winter tradition involved the telling of spooky tales while huddled around the fire. This oral tradition quickly made its way to the page with the advent of the printing press during the Industrial Revolution, and this became a beloved tradition all over modern Europe as well as the west. With the injection of modern capitalism into holiday celebration, this tradition sadly fell by the wayside. We refuse to let this stand. With this, a micro-anthology of Christmas ghost stories, we are reclaiming a bit of that treasured time spent around the fire with our loved ones. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

This week, we are graced with the presence of a dear friend of the show and one of our absolute favorite authors in this space. Joshua Cutchin has established himself as a true force in the world of speculative non-fiction. With titles like Trojan Feast, Where the Footprints End, and Ecology of Souls, he has made an impact on the Fortean community like few others in the last 20 years. But he has stepped out of the non-fiction category for his first fictional novel titled Them Old Ways Never Died. We talk a lot about the book, of course, but whenever we sit down with Josh, there is no resisting the urge for a true and thorough exchange of ideas. We talk recovery and the paranormal, UFO disclosure, and I do my very best to get a straight answer about where he’s headed next. Josh is a wildly intelligent and endlessly curious guy. We consider every chance to chat with him a true honor. Enjoy!

On October 17th, 1973, the young Falkville Chief of Police, Jeff Greenhaw, was likely hoping for a quiet evening at home after a long day of work. Instead, he would receive a call that would change his life forever, an anonymous call to dispatch from a frantic caller about a UFO in a field just outside of town. When he arrived, he was greeted by a truly shocking sight. A humanoid figure standing in the center of the field seemingly clad in a metallic substance. Whath happened when he gave chase? Were his suspicions confirmed? How was his account of these events received? This is another case of hoax vs. extraterrestrial with a serious twist! Enjoy!

From snakes to scorpions, the Australian Outback infamously contains a wealth of fearsome animals. But legend also states that this vast wilderness is home to more than one mythical creature, including a Bigfoot-like beast called a Yowie. Though accounts from Europeans only date to the 19th century, stories from Australia’s Indigenous Aboriginal people are believed to go back much further. These tales speak of an enormous beast similar to an ape, earning the creature nicknames like the “hairy man of the wood.” This week, we dive headfirst into the lore that has built the sasquatch from down under.

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.

Welcome to Ravenbrook. A town in northern Maine where mystery grows like a crop, monsters lurk at in every tree line, and phantoms lurk in more shadows than not. In this week’s first tale, we follow the exploits of an RPD beat cop from back in the 40s as he attempts to rid Ravenbrook of one of its oldest standing paranormal nuisances. We follow that with a tale from the days of the early internet. Could two young men from Ravenbrook really have stumbled upon the key to an interdimensional adventure? Safe to say that, if so, they bit off just a bit more than most of us could chew. Sit back and enjoy two more Tales From Ravenbrook!
