Cryptid Ramblers Podcast

Welcome to Episode Fifteen of the Cryptid Ramblers Podcast. We are back to full strength for this episode and continue with our mini series based on the popular documentary Hellier.   

We are back for Part 2 of our mini series and we pick up from where we left off last time in Part 1. If you haven't caught up yet, then we would suggest going back and listening to that one first.   

As mentioned we continue with the group as they make their way around Kentucky, USA in the search for more clues surrounding this mystery. They even end up in our beloved state of West Virginia. Here they meet arguably one of the most important figure heads and contactees, and not just in this phenomena. As well as this, the group encounter more synchronicities as well as some individual ones for members of the team.   

Join us as we follow their journey and continue to try and make sense of all the goings on and high strangeness that surrounds the town of Hellier, Kentucky.

Welcome to Episode Fourteen of the Cryptid Ramblers Podcast. We are a man down this week but it hasn't stopped us bringing content to our listeners. 

In this episode we take a break from Hellier, Kentucky and head not too far away to Pennsylvania, specifically we go to Centralia, Pennsylvania. 

We dive into the mysterious circumstances of this once busy mining town which has been burning from beneath since 1962. Was it a deliberate fire started to gain control of the valuable coal supply in the mines under the town, or was it a simple accident to try and clean up the town. 

Join us as we try to uncover the truth surrounding these mysterious circumstances and bring to light what really happened in Centralia, Pennsylvania. 

Welcome to Episode Thirteen of the Cryptid Ramblers Podcast. In this episode we are back stateside diving into more of the strange and unexpected. As with the last episode we found ourselves recording on a very special day, we recorded on July 4th. Now to anyone living under a rock July 4th is of course Independence Day for our American cousins. So we kick off the episode with a mini celebration which includes a guest appearance from a famous American president. 

Now as the title suggests and leading on from our last episode about all things Goblins, Gnomes, Dwarves and the like, we found ourselves falling back down the rabbit that is Hellier. This is a documentary that explores the phenomena of Goblins and their possible sightings and interactions with the residents of Hellier, Kentucky. The investigation is lead by paranormal couple Greg and Dana Newkirk and their crew as they look into the intriguing story of an experience with what became known as the Kentucky Goblins. 

Join us as we dive into the experience of not only the crew but the individual they were trying to help. We cover Season 1 in this episode and it takes so many twists and turns and leaves you down an exciting rabbit hole with plenty of questions as well as answers. 

Are the Goblins real and did they terrorise a man and his family, or is it simply an elaborate hoax.

Welcome to another episode of Cryptid Ramblers Podcast, as we hit number twelve in the series. We hit off this episode celebrating our favourite state in the world, yes on 20th June it was West Virginia day. So we couldn't do an episode without showing some love to our home from home. 

Once the festivities are done with and as the title suggests, we dive deep into the world of the mystical world of gnomes, goblins, dwarves and the like. For the origins of these mischievous little beings we stay mostly in the British isles, before taking a trip over to mainland Europe and exploring the Germanic and Spanish iterations. 

It wouldn't be right if we didn't venture over to the other side of the pond, so join us as we go through some intriguing stories and possible encounters. On this special day, do we end up in good old West Virginia...

Do we find compelling evidence to prove their existence or are they nothing more than a fairy tale. 

Welcome to Episode Eleven of the Cryptid Ramblers Podcast. In this episode we are back over the pond, in the United States of America. We are diving into the mysterious and inexplainable disappearances of both children and adults from America's national parks. With clusters popping up around the country our attentions are mostly concentrated on the American Mid-West with a trip over to New York.  

What does this have to do with Cryptids you may ask? Well, some of the very creatures we have discussed in previous episodes are reported to be linked with these very disappearances. You'll have to listen to find out which ones!

In the first half we cover The Missing 411 and the mysterious disappearances of young children dating back as early as the 1950's. Then in the second half we jump into the even weirder disappearances of adults in The Missing 411: The Hunted with these occurring as recently as the 2000's. None of the victims should have vanished without a trace and their cases are certainly compelling.

Join us as we dive deep into each one and unearth all the evidence, to try and determine whether these were just unfortunate disappearances or is there something more to it. 

Welcome to Episode Ten of the Cryptid Ramblers Podcast. In this milestone episode we are are staying mostly in the Bristish Isles and diving deep into another cryptid, or group of cryptids with local origins. For anyone who listened to our last episode you will know that this time we are discussing Fairies. 

The Fae or Fae folk as they are otherwise known have been referenced in history for hundreds of years. With origins rooted firmly in British folklore we also take a trip to Germany, Ireland and the Slavic regions of Europe. 

From as early as the 12th Century and as recent as the modern age, we look into these mysterious creatures uncovering intriguing stories, known accounts and even real life interactions.

Join us on this journey as we determine whether Fairies are as Disney have depicted, or do they have a more sinister and mischievous origin. 

Welcome to Episode Nine of the Cryptid Ramblers Podcast. In this episode we will be staying in the British Isles and diving deep into a local cryptid, legend and myth. We will exploring the harbinger of death herself the Banshee. 

With origins in Ireland, the legend of the Banshee has found herself also in Scottish and Welsh folklore. We will venture to each country and explore how each legend has taken on a persona of its own. As early as the 1380's, through to the 1700's and even more recently than that we cover a variety of stories, all of which involve an encounter with this wailing cryptid. 

From the Banshee of Ireland, the Caoineag in Scotland and the Gwrach y Rhibyn in Wales we dive into the origins of each and all their variations. 

Join us on the journey as we determine whether there is more to this historic creature of death or just another evolved fairy tale. 

Welcome to Episode Eight of the Cryptid Ramblers Podcast. In this episode we will be diving in the creepy and malevolent companions of the ever elusive Men in Black, that's right, we are going to be looking into the Women in Black.

We are back briefly in Bridgeport, Connecticut and the encounter involving a relative of Albert K Bender who had his own MiB experience in 1962. Regular listeners will not be shocked to learn that we wind up back in West Virginia hot on the tail of WiB's and their interactions in the 1950's, involving none other than John Keel. 

Certainly the most compelling encounter we come across takes us to Moapa Valley, California and a visit experienced by Truman Bethurum. In 1953 he meets with Captain Aura Rhanes, a reported WiB from the planet Clarion.  

Are the Women in Black just a companion of the Men in Black, being as elusive and out of touch, or do they have their own sinister plans. Take a listen into these creepy stories as we try to uncover the truth. 

Welcome to Episode Seven of the Cryptid Ramblers Podcast. Listeners of our podcast will know that in this episode we are diving into the phenomenon that is The Black Eyed Children. This time we venture out of the safe but creepy confines of West Virginia and head to the State of Texas and even closer to home in the County of Staffordshire, UK.

These cryptid creatures could originate as far back as the 1950's, however it is the first published encounter from 1996 that we will explorer. As well as a quick dash over to Vermont to dive into the story of a young couple who actually let them in to their home. Listeners from the UK will be pleased to know that the legend has an origin here too and of course we dive deep into that and how it has taken on a more sinister history. 

Are the Black Eyed Children paranormal, do they have a more demonic persona, could they be vampires or could they indeed be connected to the elusive MiB. 

Join us as we dive deep into this legend and unearth the truth as to what they are and also where they have come from.
