In the 1930s, a horrific cave in nearly took the life of a Soviet prisoner. Having barely survived the ordeal, little could this man have imagined that destiny would lead him into an icy mausoleum filled frozen nightmares before sending him on a collision course with one of paranormal lore's darkest of denizens.

For some the intersection between folklore and real world is cut and dry; one is fact, the other fantasy. But those who've peered through the cracks in consensus reality know the truth; our world exists at a crossroads between the seen and unseen; the known and the unfathomable; and that, when we least expect it, these realities can come crashing together in ways that shatter our perceptions… and for one Russian miner an encounter with a beautiful, in-humanoid would offer this mere mortal a glimpse into a world beyond imagination.

There are places where trauma—both physical and metaphysical—festers like a cancer; corrupting the soil, sinking into the dark earth with tendrils born of violence and fear; venomous, black roots that sink so deeply into the land that time itself seems unwilling to move on.

Beginning in the late 1960s, an array of French kids began having bizarre run-ins with a bevy of diminutive, pot-bellied, elf-like entities that left investigators wondering if this might not be the opening of a new era of high strangeness.

In what has to be one of the most intriguing, confounding, and flat-out jaw-dropping flaps in the annals of ufology, a roughly 300-day stretch in 1970 and '71 plunged Finland into an unprecedented wave of high strangeness. Citizens across the country were left stunned by the sudden emergence of tiny, space-suit-clad beings—entities that seemed to hail from a reality heavier, slower, and infinitely stranger than our own… creatures who proved more than capable of harming anyone foolish enough to try to capture one.
