Join Into The Portal as we examine the enduring mystery of Frederick's disappearance and the possible explanations that some may find out of this world...

S2 Ep33: Film Friday: The Dark Side of The Moon (1990)

Over the past several years, rumours and reports have resurfaced of a massive pyramid structure said to be hidden underground in a chamber beneath the ice, snow and rock of the remote Alaska mountains. Towering over 1000 feet high, this alleged enigma remains buried between remote mountain ranges in a vast ice-covered landscape. If this structure does exist, it could quite possibly connect us to an unknown past and perhaps to dimensions beyond our own. Join us on Into The Portal, as we venture into the remote wilds of the Alaskan mountains for a discussion of a mysterious megalith known as The Dark Pyramid.
