  • Daytime Bigfoot Roadside Encounter

    Daytime Bigfoot Roadside Encounter

    In this chilling episode of The Cryptid Podcast, Dano sits down with Robert, host of the Spoiler Sleepover Podcast, for a deep dive into a lifetime of unexplained encounters that refuse to stay buried.

    Robert begins by recounting two separate Bigfoot sightings—the first as a teenager during a family vacation in Arkansas, where he witnessed something massive and unmistakable in broad daylight. Years later, he would experience another shocking encounter near Strafford, New Hampshire, further cementing his belief that these creatures are very real and far more widespread than most people think.

    The conversation then shifts skyward as Robert shares an incredible UFO sighting around 1992 or 1993, when he was just a young child. The event was so widespread that a local ABC affiliate interrupted regular programming, announcing that residents across New York, Connecticut, and Massachusetts should step outside and look up. Robert and his mother did just that—and what they witnessed that night would stay with them forever. Robert stated later in life when the whole Phoenix Lights happened, that's what his early 90’s UFO encounter looked like. 

    Robert also opens up about another UFO encounter, followed by a disturbing lapse in time he experienced while hiking into Gay City State Park as a teenager—an experience that still raises unsettling questions decades later.

    From Bigfoot encounters to mass UFO sightings and missing time, this episode blurs the line between cryptid phenomena and aerial mysteries, leaving one unavoidable question behind: how much is really happening around us that we’re never meant to see?

  • Hopkinsville Goblins: The Terrifying 1955 Siege

    Hopkinsville Goblins: The Terrifying 1955 Siege

    Dano sits down with Geraldine Stith, a direct descendant of the family at the very heart of one of the most infamous cryptid encounters in American history — the Hopkinsville Goblin incident of 1955.

    Geraldine’s father, grandmother, uncles, and other close relatives were present at the farmhouse during the terrifying night when strange, small humanoid creatures reportedly surrounded the home, climbed onto the roof, peered through windows, and forced the family into hours of fear and gunfire. This was not secondhand lore — this was her family’s lived experience.

    In this powerful conversation, Geraldine shares the first time she heard the story growing up, how the incident shaped her family, and why she has dedicated herself to preserving the truth of what really happened that night in Hopkinsville, Kentucky. She also addresses common misconceptions, exaggerations, and inaccuracies that have crept into the story over the decades — setting the record straight and protecting her family’s legacy.

    This episode of The Cryptid Podcast strips away the myths and brings you closer than ever to the people behind the headlines, exploring one of the most debated and chilling encounters in UFO and cryptid history.

  • Alabama Bigfoot Howls and Orange Light

    Alabama Bigfoot Howls and Orange Light

    In this chilling episode of The Cryptid Podcast, Dano sits down with Mark Childers, host of The Cryptid Crew Podcast, to examine two unsettling pieces of unexplained evidence — one from rural Alabama, and one from the Florida Gulf Coast.

    Mark shares audio that was recorded around 3:00 a.m. across the street from his home in East/Central Alabama. The land belongs to his mother, and the individual living on the property approached Mark after capturing a deep, powerful vocalization unlike anything he had heard before. The sound carries weight, volume, and intent — and raises serious questions about what could be moving through the area under cover of darkness.

    The conversation then shifts south to Perdido Key, where Mark recounts a video he personally recorded while on vacation. The footage shows a bright orange light slowly moving across the night sky before disappearing — only to reappear moments later. There were no sounds, no aircraft indicators, and no visible explanation. The event was also witnessed by his daughter’s boyfriend, adding a second observer to the encounter.

    This episode dives into: Alabama Bigfoot vocalizations recorded at night, Rural property activity and unexplained audio evidence, A silent orange light filmed over Florida’s Gulf Coast, Witness corroboration and patterns across locations 

    These aren’t stories passed down secondhand. These are recordings, observations, and moments that demand attention.

  • Bigfoot Circled Their Campsite

    Bigfoot Circled Their Campsite

    In this chilling episode of The Cryptid Podcast, Dano sits down with Jason to uncover a series of unsettling encounters rooted deep in his family history. Jason recounts a terrifying story involving his grandmother and her best friend while camping in York County. Late at night, they heard heavy footsteps creeping around their campsite—slow, deliberate, and far too large to be any known animal.

    Moments later, whatever was stalking them broke into a run, thundering across the campground from left to right, followed by deep, echoing howls that ripped through the trees. Almost immediately, a powerful, foul odor filled the air—an infamous detail often reported in Bigfoot and Sasquatch encounters.

    Dano and Jason also discuss a disturbing encounter involving Jason’s great uncle, an experience he rarely spoke about, leaving behind more questions than answers. To close it out, Jason shares a UFO encounter of his own, adding another layer of high strangeness that connects his family to unexplained phenomena across generations.

  • Moonlit Merman Called Me Closer

    Moonlit Merman Called Me CloserTonight on The Cryptid Podcast, Dano sits down and talks to Kester from New Zealand, a witness whose encounters stretch from the shoreline to the deep woods and beyond the stars.While standing on a balcony overlooking the ocean under a bright full moon, Kester saw something glide through the water — a sleek, black-scaled merman alongside a mermaid, surfacing close to shore. The male turned, lifting its face toward him — yellow serpent-pupiled eyes, a wicked smile, and a beckoning gesture, as if inviting him to come down and enter the water.But his story only darkens from there.Kester recounts a terrifying encounter with a Bigfoot-type creature inland — massive, watching, undeniably aware of him. And after that moment, the activity didn’t stop. Night skies lit with orbs, strange aerial craft, and repeated brushes with entities he believes were alien — as if seeing one mystery opened the door to all of them.This isn’t a random tale — it’s a pattern of intrusion that crosses sea, land, and sky.Join Dano and Kester as they unravel whether these phenomena are separate forces — or manifestations of the same intelligence watching from the dark.
