(RABBIT HOLE) Three disturbing stories from the coal mines of West Virginia.

A miner riding alone into the mine realizes someone else is standing inside the cage with him — a dead man carrying his own severed head.

Another worker stops for two miners waiting beside the tracks, only to find the car empty except for the lanterns they were carrying.

And a young miner follows a strange blue flame deeper underground, where he hears the voice of his dead father calling his name.

These stories come from old Appalachian mining folklore collected from the communities that worked beneath those mountains.

Featuring Big John, Section South Main, and The Blue Flame.

I bought a 172-year-old house with an antique mirror built into the upstairs hallway. Within weeks, I started hearing a woman whispering from it at night.

Then things in the house began moving. My cats refused to go upstairs. And every time I slept, I found myself trapped behind the glass, watching a dark woman move slowly through my home.

I stayed for three years before I finally sold the house for a loss.

Three people meet seemingly normal strangers, until they notice something that makes the entire encounter terrifying.

First, a doctor invites a mysterious man into his home and slowly realizes almost nothing about his appearance seems natural.

Then, a salesman is stopped on a dark highway by a smiling stranger who can somehow speak without moving his mouth.

And finally, two children approach a man sitting alone in his car and politely ask to be let inside. Then he sees their eyes.

The Herbert Hopkins encounter, Indrid Cold, and the Black-Eyed Children.

We’re going deep into Appalachia for three disturbing paranormal stories.

First, a West Virginia family is terrorized by something they can’t see, something that seems to move through the house cutting clothes, blankets, and eventually living things.

Then, a man walking alone through the woods claims a seven-foot creature grabs his arm and uses needle-like fingers to take his blood.

And finally, a dead woman allegedly appears to her mother after burial and tells her exactly how she was murdered.

The stories are The Wizard Clip, The Vegetable Man, and The Greenbrier Ghost.

Three very different Appalachian nightmares.

In the 1960s, a family living at 30 East Drive in Pontefract, England began reporting increasingly violent activity inside their home.

Objects moved. Furniture was thrown. Strange banging filled the house.

Then their teenage daughter Diane became the target.

According to her family, an unseen force grabbed her and began dragging her up the staircase while they fought to pull her back.

Later, multiple people claimed to see a tall hooded figure inside the house , the entity that would eventually become known as the Black Monk of Pontefract.

But the deeper you go into this case, the stranger it gets. Some incidents may have been exaggerated or faked, and the historical story supposedly explaining who the Black Monk was appears to have serious holes.

So if the figure people claimed to see wasn’t actually the monk from the legend…what were they seeing?

In 2012, a family in Gary, Indiana claimed something evil had taken over their home.

They reported footsteps, shadows, strange voices, violent behavior, and children acting as if they were possessed. Then the case reached a hospital — where a DCS caseworker documented something almost impossible.

According to her report, a nine-year-old boy walked backward up a wall toward the ceiling.

Police, doctors, child services, and a Catholic priest all became involved, and multiple exorcisms followed.

In this episode, I’m breaking down what was actually documented, what the family claimed happened, and the explanations that make this case even stranger.

In 1977, a family in Enfield, England claimed something had taken over their home.

Furniture moved. Knocking came from inside the walls. An 11-year-old girl began speaking in a deep male voice. And at one point, a police officer reported seeing a chair move several feet without anyone touching it.

Some incidents were later exposed as hoaxes. Others remain much harder to explain.

In this episode, I’m breaking down the Enfield Poltergeist case, what witnesses actually reported, what was faked, and the details that still make this one of the most infamous alleged hauntings ever investigated.

In December 1900, three lighthouse keepers disappeared from a remote island off the coast of Scotland.

When the relief crew finally reached Eilean Mòr, the lighthouse was empty. The men were gone. Their bodies were never recovered.

But investigators found something outside that may explain what happened — including severe storm damage, equipment ripped away by the sea, and one unsettling detail about the clothing the men left behind.

In this episode, I’m breaking down what the official records actually say, what was added to the story later, and the theory that still leaves one disturbing question unanswered.

I woke up at 3 a.m. to my college roommate whispering underneath my bed.

I pretended to be asleep while she slowly crawled out, stood beside me, and left the room like nothing happened.

Then I found out she had been doing it for weeks.

An original scary story about a disturbing college roommate, strange late-night behavior, photos taken while someone slept, and the terrifying secret hidden inside her closet.

She worked overnight at a supposedly haunted hotel where the right elevator would open after 2 a.m. with every light inside turned off.

Each time, she heard several voices whispering from the darkness. The lobby turned freezing, and she was overwhelmed by sudden sadness and dread.

But when she checked the security footage, the elevator never opened.

Then one night, something inside moved.

An original scary story about a haunted hotel, a dark elevator, unexplained voices, and the figure the cameras couldn’t see.
