Paralyzed by fear, he knew something monstrous was just beyond the light. In this bone-chilling episode, Charlie relives a terrifying encounter with a massive, shadowy figure while working alone on an oil rig in East Texas. But that’s only the beginning. He describes chilling encounters with a ghostly Native figure, a seductive fire spirit, and the overwhelming sense that something ancient was hiding just out of sight. As he and Tony connect the dots through scripture, Nephilim lore, and spiritual warfare, this story becomes more than a cryptid encounter—it’s a warning.

Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer. Your prayers make a difference!
