Let's Get Haunted

For thousands of years, humans have been obsessed with cats.

Did humans domesticate cats? Or did something inside cats domesticate us?

This episode we’re talking ancient Egypt, witch trials, plague hysteria, brain parasites, and even ancient aliens.

Welcome to “Episode 247: The Molyobka Triangle, Russia’s Area 51”! Deep in the forests of Russia’s Perm Krai lies the Molyobka Triangle, also known as the Perm Anomalous Zone, The Molebka Zone, M-Zone, or even simply ‘The Zone’. This remote region is infamous for decades of UFO sightings, time distortions, electromagnetic malfunctions, and encounters with monsters, cryptids, and shadowy, inhuman intelligences. In this episode, we trace the zone’s strange history from Soviet-era secrecy to post-Perestroika paranormal expeditions, drawing heavily from firsthand accounts, photographs, and field notes written by those who visited the area themselves. From glowing spheres drifting over riverbanks and “living fog” that seems to respond to observers, to mysterious stone structures, scorched clearings, and a rumored portal known as the Wicket, this episode explores why locals, scientists, mystics, and ufologists alike all believe something is very wrong - and very active - in the forests near the village of Molebka.

What if I told you the world’s fairs were fake, buildings are lying to you, and history is a government fanfic? Did a secret organization hide an entire civilization from us? The Tartarians were allegedly so advanced, they discovered free energy, allowing their citizens to thrive without the pressure of needing to work. This free thinking society led to the creation of advanced technology and grand architecture like the Taj Majal, The Great Wall of China, The Pyramids of Giza and even The Whitehouse. But did a powerful organization with investments in the sale of energy erase the evidence of Tartaria with a series of seemingly natural disasters for their own profit? According to this conspiracy theory, they tried.

Welcome to “Episode 245: The Hauntings of the Drake Passage”! At the bottom of the globe, between the southernmost tip of Chile and the northernmost islands of Antarctica, lies a treacherous stretch of ocean that has claimed the lives of thousands of sailors. With waves up to 65 feet high and winds clocking in at 70 miles per hour, the violence of the Drake Passage can only be successfully navigated by the most experienced of ship captains. Beneath these churning blue-green waters, there are an estimated 800 hidden shipwrecks filled with forgotten treasures and floating skeletons, cursed to remain in this dark and frigid purgatory for the rest of time. Above the waves, unlucky sailors passing through the area must fight to stay alive as their ships rock violently against rogue waves, unpredictable currents, and howling tempests. As they struggle to traverse the passage successfully, many crew members swear they can hear the anguished voices of the drowned mixed with the whistling wind. Sea monsters, ghost ships, and skeleton sailors all populate this forgotten region. Come aboard the SS Hauntie on this week’s episode of Let’s Get Haunted as we explore the ghost stories of the Drake Passage!

When two brothers unearthed a pair of small carved stone heads in their garden in 1971, their quiet Northumberland home became the center of bizarre events, objects moving on their own, windows shattering, and even sightings of a half-man, half-beast creature stalking the neighborhood. But the mystery didn’t end there. Were the heads ancient Celtic artifacts? A modern hoax? Or objects carrying something older, darker, and hungry?

This week, Nat and Aly trace the entire haunting from discovery to disappearance, explore the theories academic and occult, and dig into why these tiny stone faces left such a massive supernatural footprint. Expect folklore twists, cursed-object chaos, and a deep dive into one of the UK’s most enduring paranormal mysteries. Buckle tf up, we are getting haunted!
