Darkness Radio presents Mothman: Sightings and Investigations of the Iconic Flying Cryptid with Paranormal Investigators/Authors, Richard Estep and Tobias Wayland!

When a large, winged humanoid with glowing red eyes was spotted in Point Pleasant, West Virginia, the Mothman legend was born. Since that fateful November night, the flying cryptid has become one of the most famous monsters of all time.

Richard Estep and renowned Mothman researcher Tobias Wayland document firsthand witness accounts and conduct detailed investigations with the hope of seeing the iconic cryptid themselves. This book chronicles their discoveries, which include large concentrations of sightings in the Chicago and Lake Michigan area. They delve into the science of Mothman, where he may reside and travel, and much more.

From the encounter at Dufield Pond to the Van Meter Visitor, Mothman presents terrifying experiences with the black, red-eyed creature that no one―including you―will ever forget.

Richard and Tobias join Darkness Radio today to talk about their new book, about the theories of Charles Fort and John Keel.  They talk about some of the more famous Mothman cases and festivals, and then talk about why one should be skeptical of a Mothman sighting and what one could be seeing instead!

True Crime Tuesday Presents Crime And Unusual Punishment: The Psychological Realities Of Federal Prison w/Former Psychologist/Author, Paul Smith!

Paul Smith was a clinical psychologist sentenced to 51 months for healthcare fraud and in his new book, confronts the harsh realities of federal prison. Incarcerated amid the chaos of the COVID pandemic, he endured a relentless odyssey through eight different prison facilities, caught in a near-perpetual cycle of transfer. Through his expert lens, CRUEL AND UNUSUAL PUNISHMENT: A Memoir of the Psychological Realities of Federal Prison unveils the stark truth of an uncivilized, harsh, and insane system that erodes the very essence of humanity.

The author reveals a grim truth: extended exposure to the cruel environment of prison—crafted by government policy and the ruthless prisoner code—strips away humanity, pushing individuals toward savagery. Drawing from his own struggle to preserve his sense of self and the hard-earned wisdom of those who survived years of confinement, he offers a raw, introspective exploration of survival under psychological siege.

On today's episode, we sit down with Paul and talk to him about the psychological effects of the prison system on the average inmate, whether every inmate is redeemable, and changing over the prison system from a punitive system to a truly reformative one and what model should be used as an example. We also relive Paul's story and recall the pitfalls that led to his downfall...

Darkness Radio Presents: Chasing North American Monsters with Professor/Paranormal Researcher/Author, Jason Offutt!

Here in North America, there be monsters! Jason Offutt takes you on a thrilling adventure across all twenty-three countries―as well as every state and territory of the US, Canada, and Mexico―to meet one or more monsters in each location. Featuring illustrations throughout his new book, "Chasing North American Monsters, A Guide To Over 250 Creatures From Greenland to Guatemala",  this book travels to Alaska, the Caribbean, Greenland, and beyond.

• Find the horned boa known as Madre de Aguas in Cuba.

• Head to Honduras to spot el Comelenguas, the tongue-eating giant bird.

• Catch a glimpse of the Grafton Monster along West Virginia's roads.

• Escape from the Ikusik, the human-devouring corpse of Greenland.

• Track the Were-Jaguar (half-man, half-cat) across Tabasco, Mexico.

From Arizona's Lizard Man to Canada's Wendigo, this book opens your eyes to the monstrous wonders of North America. Are you up for the chase?

On Today's show, we break down some of Jason's favorite stories from the book. We ask him if one of the creatures in the book could truly be in Tim's yard! And, we dig deeper into why certain legends and lore exist in common in different areas across the world!

True Crime Tuesday presents:  Fiend: Supernatural Secrets in Business, Family, and Tragedy with Ex-CIA Agent/Author, Alma Katsu!

The Berisha family runs one of the largest import-export companies in the world, and they’ve always been lucky. Their rivals suffer strokes. Inconvenient buildings catch on fire. Earthquakes swallow up manufacturing plants, destroying harmful evidence. Things always seem to work out for the Berishas. They’re blessed.

At least that is what Zef, the patriarch, has always told his three children. And each of them knows their place in the family—Dardan, as the only male heir, must prepare to take over as keeper of the Berisha secrets, Maris’s most powerful contribution, much to her dismay, will be to marry strategically, and Nora’s job, as the youngest, is to just stay out of the way. But when things stop going as planned, and the family blessing starts looking more like a curse, the Berishas begin to splinter, each hatching their own secret scheme. They didn’t get to be one of the richest families in the world without spilling a little blood, but this time, it might be their own.

On Today's TCT, We sit down with Alma Katsu to talk about her background in the CIA, how the agency has changed in today's times and threats, and then we launch into the Berisha family!  What makes them tick, What makes their moral code "questionable", and what sets them all up to be perfect to carry the "family Secret"!

True Crime Tuesday presents: Something Big: The Brown's Chicken Massacre, A Decade Long Manhunt & The Trials That Followed with Researcher/Author, Patrick Wohl !

Customers know Brown's Chicken for its crispy buttermilk fried chicken and flaky biscuits. The Illinois-based franchise has a reputation for delicious but simple comfort food. But through no fault of its own, the words "Brown's Chicken" are also synonymous with one fateful night in January of 1993.

“A Real Hometown” is the trite but apt motto of Palatine, Illinois, a quaint middle-class suburb west of Chicago. On a snowy Friday evening, the staff and owners of the city’s local Brown’s Chicken franchise were closing up when two final customers arrived just past 9 p.m. As the night drew on and the employees hadn’t returned home, the families of the owners and workers began to worry, prompting police to investigate. When they entered the dark building, police were shocked to find seven bodies stacked in the restaurant’s freezer and fridge. The killers, of course, were long gone. In the months that followed, the horrendous story rocked Chicagoland and the case remained unsolved for nine years.

The Brown’s Chicken massacre is one of the most infamous cases in Illinois history, yet it is often misremembered. In Something Big, Patrick Wohl gives a new account of the story, taking readers behind the scenes and sharing the perspective of the people who lived it.

On today's TCT, Patrick Wohl joins the show to talk about the victims of the=is massacre and the circumstances that gathered all seven of them to the Brown's Chicken there that fateful day. We also talk about the two killers in this case, and how they managed to go unfound for as many years as they did, considering how many people were told!
