It’s that time again Nightowls, when the veil between our world and what lies beyond is supposedly at its thinnest. But what of those for whom that membrane between life as we know it and whatever may lay outside of it, at anytime, may wane complete- allowing for a pure gaze into the abyss? Neurosurgeon and unlikely war hero Ryan Brenan, protagonist of Dr. Gary Simonds latest novel ‘Death’s Pale Flag’, is a man haunted by just such a view. When he begins to have experiences with the dead, Ryan’s life is upended, and he begins to question if he is loosing his mind, or if the dearly departed, who are seemingly reaching out to him, have chosen him for a reason. Tonight on MIK, we sit down for an in-depth conversation with Dr. Simonds on his latest work and just what inspired this tale of a man beset by paranormal apparitions. In this episode we talk hopeful agnosticism, the border line between science and the supernatural, what it means to peer through the veil of life and death, and so much more! Join us under the moonlight and by the fireside this evening, Nightowls, as we capture Death’s Pale Flag and go in conversation with Dr. Gary Simonds!

On the last Saturday of October, just as the veil between worlds is sheer enough to allow passage of all manner of otherworldly travelers, something special takes place in Meade County, Kentucky.

A celebration of the life and commemoration of the death of Leah Smock, The Battletown Witch, the only woman that history tells us was burned alive in America for the crime of Witchcraft- and it happened here- in The Bluegrass State.

In 2022, we were honored to speak at the inaugural Battletown Witch festival. Tonight, you’ll hear that presentation in full, as we discuss just a few instances of those, and that, which have been called Witches in and around Kentucky. Additionally, we take a few questions from the audience, and festival organizer Annie Hamilton Edmond tells us the story of Leah Smock- The Battletown Witch- and talks briefly on the UFOlogical history of the area.

While MIK were unable to attend the festival this year, we send our best to both organizers and and festival goers and can’t wait to join you again in 2024. For now, under the moonlight and by the fireside this evening, Midnight in Kentucky presents, Live from the 2022 Battletown Witch Festival: A Brief History of Kentucky Witches pt. 1.

In part two of MIK's three part volume three premiere, we get into all the strangeness of 2023 thus far, taking it straight back to the beginning of the year itself. We’ll explore just how this weirdness has led directly into summers ethereal nexus, which seems to have brought out all the supernatural stops. On tonight’s episode, we take a look at recent animal mutilations, crop circles, chupacabra, Mothman, flying humanoids, and of course UFO and alien sightings, that have been happening since January, and seem to have only increased in frequency since late spring. Join us under the full moon once again, Nightowls, and prepare yourself to come face to face with that which lies beyond the veil!

Nightowls of all times, places, spaces, and ages, the full moon has risen once again and Midnight in Kentucky is back from the dead! In part one of MIK's three part volume three premiere, we hone in on just a few of the otherwordly goingson that the months of June and July seemed to have pulled through their yearly etheral nexus point. In this episode, you'll hear our takes on the infamous non-real 'plane lady,' the anonymous technically laden reddit post of a supposed scientist who worked on the bodies of non-human intelligences, and of course the testimony of UAP whistleblower David Grusch. Kicking off the strangeness, we discuss a local sasquatch sighting and how 2023 seems to be one big flap of paranormal and supernatural sightings and incidents. Welcome back, Nightowls and listen close, the dimensional rifts are growing and their strange inhabitants are pouring in!
