Minnesota is known for its lakes, forests, wetlands, and remote northern wilderness. But behind that familiar image lies a darker, stranger reality.
In this episode of UNEXPLAINED MINNESOTA, Lon Strickler presents a chilling collection of eyewitness accounts from across the state, including a 12-foot living tree seen walking through a Saint Louis County wetland, multigenerational Dogman and Lycan activity on a northern Minnesota property, a Bigfoot allegedly breaching a reinforced grow shed near the Kettle River, a Hollow Man / cloaked entity seen in Maplewood, an antlered humanoid in a remote church window in Itasca County, a possible alien abduction near Land O’ Lakes State Forest, an Owlman encounter in Winnebago followed by a green fire orb and missing time, and a massive winged humanoid descending over I-35 near Moose Lake.
These reports cross the boundaries of cryptid encounters, spirit traditions, UFO contact, high strangeness, and winged humanoid phenomena.
What is happening in Minnesota’s deep woods and lonely roads?
Are these ancient land spirits, hidden cryptids, interdimensional entities, alien visitors, or something even stranger?

Louisiana is a land of bayous, swamps, old roads, deep folklore, spiritual traditions, and unexplained encounters. In this episode of Phantoms & Monsters Radio, Lon Strickler presents a chilling collection of Louisiana reports involving swamp creatures, Loup Garou/Rougarou legends, reptilian humanoids, UFO abduction, time-slip anomalies, haunted New Orleans, and disturbing high-strangeness accounts from the Bayou State.
Reports include a recent bipedal swamp creature near Westlake, a terrifying canal encounter in South Louisiana, an Oil City Loup Garou story, a lizard man sighting on I-55 in Tangipahoa Parish, a New Iberia UFO abduction report, the mysterious vanishing 1940 automobile between Abbeville and Lafayette, and eerie New Orleans accounts involving howls, ritual atmosphere, and post-Katrina recovery work.
These cases suggest that Louisiana’s old stories may not be mere folklore. Something strange moves through the swamps, roads, canals, and shadows of the Bayou State.

Washington State is known for its volcanic mountains, isolated coastlines, ancient evergreen forests, deep river valleys, military facilities, and immense stretches of wilderness. It is also the setting for some of the most disturbing unexplained encounters ever reported.
In this presentation of UNEXPLAINED WASHINGTON, Lon Strickler examines eight extraordinary cases involving UFO activity, missing time, transparent flying creatures, cloaked humanoids, upright canines, Sasquatch, military secrecy, and an unsolved disappearance that continues to haunt him personally.
A ten-year-old boy camping near Beacon Rock awakens after hours of missing time with his boots on the wrong feet, wet socks, unexplained puncture marks, and no memory of what happened after his dogs began reacting to something in the darkness.
A married couple in Bremerton watches two enormous, transparent creatures with prehistoric features glide silently above their heads. Their reflective bodies appear almost invisible in the moonlight.
Campers near Table Mountain hear footsteps, faint drumming, and movement around their tents before one witness sees a long-limbed gray humanoid crouching between the trees.
A man guarding a rural property encounters a partially cloaked humanoid suspended near an ancient cedar tree. The figure resembles rippling air and produces an immediate, overwhelming wave of dread.
At a gas station in Grayland, a nearly seven-foot-tall employee confronts an enormous canine creature standing upright behind the building.
Near Kirkland, a hiker claims to witness a violent confrontation between a Sasquatch and a translucent reptilian creature capable of producing a mysterious burning substance.
A former United States Air Force serviceman describes a secret assignment following the 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens. Armed guards were ordered to protect heavily concealed figures whose unusual height and proportions led him to question whether they were human disaster victims.
The presentation concludes with the deeply emotional case of Mandy, a young Washington schoolteacher who contacted Lon after strange red-and-white lights appeared near her isolated farmhouse. Telephone failures, electrical blackouts, scratching on the roof, movement in the attic, and terrifying aerial activity followed.
Days after Mandy asked, “Why is this happening to us?” she vanished from her bedroom without a trace.
Her car, clothing, and personal belongings remained behind. There was no apparent forced entry and no known explanation for how she disappeared.
These cases raise difficult questions about what may inhabit Washington’s forests, mountains, waterways, and skies.
Are these encounters evidence of undiscovered biological creatures, dimensional intrusions, spiritual entities, extraterrestrial activity, classified military operations, or phenomena that exist beyond our current understanding?

New Mexico is a land of ancient mysteries, isolated deserts, volcanic landscapes, secretive military installations, indigenous traditions, and persistent reports of unexplained phenomena.
In this episode of Phantoms & Monsters Radio, Lon Strickler presents nine extraordinary witness accounts from across New Mexico involving winged humanoids, UFOs, transparent entities, mysterious portals, reptilian beings, unknown forest creatures, and a terrifying insectoid encounter.
A motorist near Hobbs observes an eight-to-nine-foot winged humanoid clinging near the top of an electrical pole. The massive figure has black feathered wings, a bare or membranous body, a visible bony spine, and a small featureless head.
On Tortugas Mountain, a hiker discovers a modern green doorway standing alone across a familiar trail. After stepping through it, the witness experiences intense déjà vu, distorted colors, visual flickering, an out-of-body sensation, and overwhelming dread. When the witness later returns, the doorway is gone.
Near Cloudcroft in the Lincoln National Forest, teenage campers hear two enormous bipedal creatures screaming and communicating through deep clicking sounds. The entities approach the tent from different directions, with one stopping only a foot away.
Two New Mexico patrol officers investigate mysterious whistling near an abandoned school. Something crawls through waist-high grass before standing upright and revealing a childlike humanoid form with illuminated blue eyes.
At Holloman Air Force Base, a woman witnesses large transparent humanoids moving through the desert and appearing outside her home. The entities distort the background around them like wrinkled plastic or optical camouflage.
During a childhood visit to Capulin Volcano, a witness experiences an apparent separation of consciousness and descends into an underground tunnel. There, she encounters a small robed reptilian being holding a tablet-like device.
In Rio Arriba County, witnesses observe a bizarre creature with huge bat-like wings, yellow eyes, long fangs, hocked legs, and a white V-shaped marking across its chest.
Outside Roswell, members of a touring band encounter a 15-foot luminous sphere that follows their van at approximately 75 miles per hour before stopping instantly above the roadside.
Finally, near Valles Caldera, a stranded mail carrier encounters a six-foot insectoid with a grasshopper-like head, large antennae, and multiple pincers.
What is occurring throughout New Mexico?
Are these encounters connected to unknown animals, indigenous traditions, extraterrestrial intelligence, secret military technology, interdimensional phenomena, or something even stranger?
Join Lon Strickler as he examines these chilling eyewitness reports from one of the most mysterious regions in North America.

West Virginia has long been known as Mothman country, but the state’s unexplained history reaches far beyond Point Pleasant. In this episode of Phantoms & Monsters Radio, Lon Strickler presents a chilling collection of strange reports from the mountains, forests, mining communities, and backroads of West Virginia and the greater Appalachian region.
These accounts include the infamous Vegetable Man of Grant Town, a possible winged omen connected to the 1934 McDunn mine-train disaster, a tall skeletal “Stickman” seen near Harpers Ferry, a bizarre upright deer encounter, Bigfoot-like activity in the Seneca Creek and Spruce Knob backcountry, a terrifying mountain giant with glowing golden eyes, a massive wolf-like creature in the Appalachian borderland, a tiny cloaked Glimmer Man-type figure in Beaver, West Virginia, and a disturbing Black-Eyed Kids encounter in Glade Springs.
Are these reports examples of cryptid activity, interdimensional contact, ancient Appalachian folklore, spiritual warnings, or something even stranger?
Join Lon as he examines these unsettling cases and explores why West Virginia remains one of the most mysterious and high-strangeness regions in America.
Featured cases include:
• The Vegetable Man of Grant Town• The Powellton winged omen and the McDunn mine-train explosion• The Stickman near Harpers Ferry• The upright deer or “Deer God” encounter• The Seneca Creek / Spruce Knob backcountry presence• The 10-foot figure with golden eyes• The full moon howl and black wolf-like creature• The tiny cloaked figure of Beaver, West Virginia• The Black-Eyed Kids of Glade Springs
