October 13th 2020, marked the second release from us. This time we took to the woods and made it into the Glastonbury Mountains where Missing People lurked from 1945-1950. Around 6 or 7 people, including hikers, hunters, and visitors from other states, vanished. Strange theories emerged over the decades. Some of the most known cases are Paula Welden, who disappeared Sunday, December 1st, 1946. Who was going to Bennington College at the time, went out with a RED Jacket to Hike. Never returned. Paul Jepson, who was only eight years old, vanished from his mother's truck while attending to their family pigs. A lot of speculations eyed the mother of bringing the child's demise and getting rid of evidence, by the pigs.

Join Tessa and Paul as they discuss the short film, five years later. What worked, the outcome, what could have been changed.

A phantom or spook light is a mysterious, unexplainable light or glowing orb, often seen in remote areas, that appears to move, change colors, and react to observers. These lights are sometimes referred to as ghost lights, corpse candles, or will-o'-the-wisps. They are often associated with folklore and legends, with some cultures attributing them to spirits, supernatural beings, or even mischievous entities.

September 3rd 2010, Frank Siecienski noticed that something had been eating a whole bunch of apples from his tree. He then set up a trail cam to take photos every minute. He left it for seven days and seven nights.

He retrieved the camera. He was shocked to discover what was the reason for his apples disappearing. It's important to note that whatever was captured was only there for about a minute. If it was there past the two minute mark, we would have another photo.

Frank Siecienski is a self-described Bigfoot researcher from Hubbardton, Vermont. He claims to have captured an image of Bigfoot on a trail camera on his property in September 2010. Siecienski is a strong believer in the existence of Bigfoot, and states that Bigfoot sightings in Vermont date back to the late 70s and early 80s. He believes Vermont is a suitable habitat for Bigfoot due to its remote and undisturbed private land, with areas like Rutland and Hubbardton experiencing consistent sightings. Siecienski also says his photo captured a female Bigfoot (Sasquatch), approximately 400 pounds and accompanied by a baby. He believes it was either protecting or picking up its young. While others have suggested his photo may be of an owl, Siecienski remains unconvinced and even has a vanity plate "BIG FT" on his car, which he says sparks conversations and leads to other reported sightings. Siecienski has also stated that speaking about Bigfoot can lead to ridicule, but he is open to discussions and has made friends with people who were initially skeptical but are now believers. 

A unique milestone achieved. Today (August 26th 2025) marks the Thirteenth Year since I started this little journey, and I'm saying that loosely. As it's been awesome, lacking, and more importantly, still learning through the chats and research. While still going out there and exploring and investigating on terms.

I'm also in the works of a couple projects, and if you're interested. Let me know! Celebrate by supporting over at TeePublic and grabbing some swag today to represent.
