Susan Fair is most at home exploring the crossroads of weirdness and history. She lives on the shoulder of South Mountain in Western Maryland. Her writing has appeared in several newspapers, bunches of magazines, and on numerous websites, including the Rumpus.net and cryptomundo.com. A longtime public library worker, Susan's after hours adventures have included a gig at a very strange museum - where she expounded on the virtues of a severed arm and a genuine wizard's spellbook - and hanging out with ghost hunters and monster trackers. She is the author of American Witches: a Broomstick Tour through Four Centuries (Skyhorse, 2016) and Mysteries and Lore of Western Maryland.

In the shadows of the quiet mountain towns of Western Maryland, strange creatures are said to lurk in the woods while phantoms wander the foothills. The Hagerstown clock tower is reportedly haunted by the ghost of a young artist killed during the Civil War, while the low summit of South Mountain was once host to a mysterious spell-caster, the Wizard Zittle. Farther west, tales of legendary hunter Meshach Browning echo among the Allegany Mountains while visitors to Deep Creek Lake may feel the chilling presence of monks who never left their former monastery. From the 1909 hoax of the monstrous Snallygaster that terrorized the Middletown Valley to the doglike Dwayyo that was spotted near Frederick in 1965, local historian Susan Fair rounds up the bizarre beasts, odd characters and unsolved mysteries that color the legends and lore of Western Maryland.

This episode with Bruce Hallenbeck is In Memory of Cricket (kitty cat), Mr. & Mrs. Hallenbeck who have left this plane.

In the quiet town of Kinderhook, New York, eerie encounters and unexplained noises have fueled the legend of a mysterious, hulking beast lurking in the shadows. Dubbed the Kinderhook Creature, this elusive entity has terrified locals for generations, with eyewitnesses reporting glowing eyes, guttural growls, and massive footprints deep in the woods. Featuring exclusive interviews with those who claim to have seen it firsthand, as well as compelling photo and audio evidence, this documentary takes an investigative deep dive into the chilling mystery. Could the Kinderhook Creature be a yet-undiscovered species, a misidentified animal, or something far more sinister? The Kinderhook Creature brings you closer than ever to the truth.

Bruce G. Hallenbeck is an author, actor, and screenwriter whose films include Vampyre, Fangs, and The Drowned. His many books on film history include The Hammer Frankenstein, Rock’n’Roll Monsters: The American International Story, and Poe Pictures. Hallenbeck has also acted in such features as Shadow Tracker, Edge of Reality, and Project D: Classified. He lives in upstate New York with his wife Rosa, two cats, and several ghosts.

In "On the Trail of Bigfoot", Seth Breedlove travels from coast to coast, visiting fourteen states, and interviewing two dozen individuals who take part in the hunt for what most people regard as a myth. Along the way, evidence is offered in the form of footprint casts, hair samples, strange recorded sounds and even video of what is purported to be a Bigfoot. From the forests of the Pacific Northwest to the hills of Pennsylvania, to deep southern swamps and the Ouachita Mountains of Oklahoma, Breedlove joins investigators seeking to prove the creature's existence.
