The Conspiracy Journal

Have you ever woken up in the middle of the night, unable to move, only to discover a dark figure standing at the foot of your bed… WATCHING YOU?

He's known as THE HAT MAN a mysterious, faceless figure dressed in a long coat and wide-brimmed hat. For centuries people across the world have reported terrifying encounters with SHADOW PEOPLE, sinister silhouettes that appear in doorways, lurk in dark corners, and sometimes seem to move closer when you're not looking. 

This week, the Henchmen venture into the darkness to investigate one of the strangest and most unsettling paranormal phenomena in human history.

Greg recounts his own terrifying encounter with a shadowy female entity, Michelle reveals her experiences with mysterious figures, and Bobby shares sightings from the dark forests of the Pacific Northwest.

PLUS! A chilling call to the Strange Exchange from a listener whose family may have encountered the SAME shadowy apparition years apart.

Every October 31st, millions of kids put on masks and go door to door, and almost none of them know why. This week the Henchmen trace Halloween back to Samhain in ancient Ireland when the dead were said to walk among the living and a disguise might be the only thing keeping you safe. Then we jump to the 1980s, when the Satanic Panic had America seeing devil worship everywhere and the poisoned candy scare had parents lining up to X-ray chocolate bars at the local hospital. Most of those stories were made up. A few weren’t, and those are the ones that’ll stay with you. Lock the door, dump out the pillowcase, and tune in for this year’s Halloween Special!
