Guess how many times I misspoke and said "extracurriculars" instead of "extraterrestrials" on my first take recording this episode? Bahaha! Today's episode delves into the mysterious history and happenings of Area 51. So put on some metallics, paint your face green and take me to your leader! And in case your wondering, my husband does NOT agree with my take on the moon landing LOL! He said Neil Armstrong would hate my guts.

Hey you! Yeah YOU! I'm back and I'm hitting you up with an extra long episode today to make up for being gone last week! Today we will cover a Utah missing person's case. 15 year old, Spanish Fork native, Kiplyn Davis went missing on May 2nd, 1995. No one claims to have seen her after lunch. In the entries of Kiplyn's journal, her parents learn about a boy Kiplyn may have been seeing. But, there's also another boy who asked her on out on a date a little before she went missing and he also went MIA after lunch the day Kiplyn disappeared... After years of uncertainty, 3 boys willingly subject themselves to a polygraph. The polygraph answers don't provide concrete answers but... one boy's confession, prior to the test, changes everything!

Today we will discuss Aokigahara, otherwise known as the Suicide Forest that is about a two hour drive from Tokyo, Japan. This mystical forest became famous after a novel was published about it in 1961, but the deaths pre-date the book. We will talk about the forest's dark history, its mystical properties and what is going on in there now from a man who spends dozens of hours each week in there as a suicide prevention specialist.  

National Suicide Hotline: 800-273-8255 open 24/7 365 days a year.

It all started at Kmart. A 2 year old girl was found abandoned in the parking lot. She wouldn't answer anyone's questions. A woman later saw the little girl's picture in the paper and immediately recognized her as her grand-daughter Crystal. The two were reunited and Crystal's grandmother asked her, "Where is mommy?" Crystal's reply is chilling and will undoubtedly give me nightmares for the rest of my life. "Mommy's in the trees. Mommy's in the trees. Mommy's in the trees."

*Editors Note* I am a dummy and for a very small portion of this episode I will refer to Mike as "Steve" ... WTF is Steve?! Idk. I'm blaming it on Spring Break. Please forgive me :(

In today's episode we will dive into the legend of the Goat Man. We'll also discuss the three places in the US which seem to be hot spots in terms of Goat Man encounters. I thought this would be reminiscent of Moth Man with like festivals and stuff... not so. Not so at all my friends. This episode takes a turn. But don't worry, there's comedic relief sprinkled in... y'all I'm sorry but, I had to do it. ;)

Jaliek Rainwalker was born to a mother addicted to cocaine. Naturally, he was placed into foster care until he was later adopted by the McDonald-Kerr Family. It didn't take long for the family to decide that Jaliek's behavior was "unmanageable." They even asked to reverse the adoption. The state informed Jaliek's adoptive parents that this was no longer an option. Shortly after this conversation, Jaliek came up missing. Jaliek's biological family, adoptive grandparents, former foster care families and the entire Greenwich community want to find him... well everybody, it seems, except... his adoptive parents. Where is Jaliek Rainwalker?!?

Hannah Truelove was a vibrant, free-spirited 16 year old living in Gainesville, Georgia. It was 2012, and social media was rampant... and lemme tell you something. Hannah? She was here for it. The girl loved to post statuses, take pictures and tweet. LOTS OF TWEETING! Twitter was, by far, her platform of choice. In the days leading up to her death, Hannah began posting some unclear... possibly ominous tweets. Now her friends, parents and detectives must comb through those tweets in order to determine if they are all just dramatic teen verbiage... or could they hold the key to who killed Hannah?

In today's episode we will recap S1E9 of Unsolved Mysteries with my love Mr. Robert "Late Night Snack" Stack. We will cover the case of Kurt Sova. Did he die of alcohol intoxication or something far more sinister? We'll hear a plea from a man in search of both his father and son. 2 priests are murders 2000 miles apart... but there are similarities. Is there a serial killer(s) targeting priests across the United States? And then there's this story about a dude who finds a magic rock and then his luck changes forever. Is the rock really mystical? Or is it all a load of bull? You be the judge.
