From the terrifying Beast of Bladenboro and disturbing Dogman reports to eerie Bigfoot encounters hidden within the forests and Uwharrie, North Carolina has produced decades of stories involving creatures that shouldn't exist. We'll investigate eyewitness encounters, strange vocalizations, unexplained predators, and some of the state's most unsettling cases of high strangeness.

Tonight, we enter the forests, backroads, mountains, and swamps of North Carolina to ask one question:

What is really hiding out there?

WAS IT A SKINWALKER

At just 14 years old, Johnnie experienced something at a New Mexico stoplight that she has never forgotten.

In broad daylight, she noticed two men sitting in the back of an older pickup truck stopped directly in front of her family’s car. Then one of them turned around—and Johnnie saw a face she describes as looking like a wolf.

Was this simply something she couldn't explain…or could she have witnessed something far stranger?

Johnnie, now a member of the North American Dogman Project (NADP), joins The Cryptid Podcast to share her terrifying childhood encounter and why the possibility of a Skinwalker has remained part of the mystery surrounding what she saw that day.

Something Stepped Out

At 4:00 AM in Dundalk, Ontario, Canada, my guest Chelsea woke up with an overwhelming feeling that she needed to look outside. What she witnessed through her bedroom window has stayed with her ever since.

A strange glowing orb was moving through the trees—rising, dropping, and zipping through the darkness. Then it moved toward the creek. As Chelsea watched, the light appeared to transform into something resembling a portal…and then something stepped out.

What emerged from that light? Chelsea still doesn't know. In this episode of The Cryptid Podcast, she shares her firsthand account of a bizarre encounter involving strange lights, an apparent portal, and an unidentified figure that appeared to emerge from it.

If you're fascinated by Bigfoot encounters, Sasquatch evidence, unexplained wilderness phenomena, and real eyewitness testimony, you won't want to miss this episode.

Those Eyes Were Too High

What happens when you're alone on a dark forest trail…and realize the eyes watching you are far too high off the ground?

Paul, founder of the Western Ohio Bigfoot Research Group, joins Dano on The Cryptid Podcast to share some of the incredible Bigfoot encounters he has personally experienced and investigated throughout Ohio.

During one chilling encounter, Paul became turned around while walking a forest path at night. As he searched the darkness with his flashlight, he suddenly stopped—staring back at him from a large patch of bushes were two large, glowing orange eyes positioned frighteningly high off the ground.

And that's only one of the stories Paul brings to the show. We dive into his personal encounters, investigations, eyewitness reports, and the unexplained activity that has fueled his search for answers.

What was watching Paul from those bushes…and why were those eyes so high?.

It CHARGED Toward Our Truck

What was that thing running through the California countryside?

While riding home from summer camp in the back of her dad’s pickup truck with her younger brother, my guest Heather looked toward an open field beside the road—and saw something she has never forgotten. A massive, unidentified creature was running on all fours through the field toward their truck, appearing like a bizarre cross between a Bigfoot and a werewolf.

What Heather witnessed that day left her with questions that remain unanswered. In this episode of The Cryptid Podcast, Heather takes us back to that frightening California encounter and reveals more details about the creature, what she saw as it charged toward them, and the experience that has stayed with her ever since.

Was it Bigfoot, a Dogman, something werewolf-like... or something else entirely?

If you're fascinated by Bigfoot encounters, Sasquatch evidence, unexplained wilderness phenomena, and real eyewitness testimony, you won't want to miss this episode.
