I Want to Believe the Podcast – S3 E14 – The Haunting of Wood Island Lighthouse

SEASON FINALE!!

Welcome to the I Want to Believe podcast! What lurks on the shores and structures of Wood Island? We’ll let ya know…

But first!! A quick reminder that ALL of our I Want to Believe social media & email are below. ALSO you can watch my documentary, Otherworldly Amor on Amazon Prime right now, DVDs are available. Alright, enough of all that... let’s talk about the the Haunting of Wood Island Lighthouse.

Wood Island Light is an active lighthouse on the eastern edge of Wood Island in Saco Bay, on the southern coast of Maine. The light is just outside the entrance to Biddeford Pool and the end of the Saco River. The lighthouse was built in 1807 and is a 47-foot white tower of granite rubble. The light itself sits 71 feet above high water. Its automated beacon alternates between green and white every 10 seconds. Wood Island Light is Maine's second-oldest lighthouse (after Portland Head Light) and the nation's eleventh-oldest.

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places as Wood Island Light Station on January 21, 1988. As it stands right now, the United States Coast Guard maintains the active beacon of the lighthouse, while The Friends of Wood Island Light, a non-profit organization, has assisted the Coast Guard by maintaining and restoring parts of the lighthouse and keepers’ dwellings which they now own.

To get into the haunting, press play ;)

In Loveland, Ohio reports of a 4-foot frog roaming the marshes on its hind legs have fascinated locals and people from away, for decades. It's a narrative that dates back to the 1950s, when a businessman claimed to have seen multiple bipedal frogs along the Little Miami River. But is it merely anecdotal or is it possible that such a creature exists?


With special co-host Christina, we’ll be sharing the varied encounters of the Loveland Frogman.

Welcome to season 7, episode 4 of the I Want to Believe podcast! 


Robert Michael Pyle, the bearded lepidopterist who stole our hearts with his seminal work, Where Bigfoot Walks, is a man of many talents and pursuits. He is, of course, an author… but also a naturalist, a professor, a poet, he has been a husband, and now a widower.  


In 2020, he was lovingly portrayed by actor David Cross in the movie The Dark Divide. With special co-host Christina, we’ll be discussing the life and adventures of one of cryptozoology’s most unexpected proponents.

I Want to Believe Podcast – S7 E1 | The Many Predictions of Baba Vanga


Opening song:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ New Season by Nadiiife
Closing song: Everybody's Safe Until... by Paris Texas
Clips: Myth Stories & Most Amazing Top Ten


Welcome to the season 7 premier of the I Want to Believe podcast! We have a special guest co-host with us today… they are the creator of Kiwi’s Cryptid World, they are an artist and photographer and turns out... they are also the love of my life. Her name is Christina. 

Tonight, our story starts in Bulgaria and ends in the cosmos.
 
Baba Vanga was a Bulgarian woman who lost her sight as a child. In 1923, at 12 years old, Vanga claimed that she was caught in a tornado and thrown into a field. After the storm, she could not be located and her family assembled a search party. After nearly 72 hours, Vanga was found.


She was frightened, bruised and covered in dirt. She was cleaned and doctors addressed her superficial wounds but they found that she could not open her eyes. Vanga told them that her eyes hurt and felt as if there was sand and dirt inside of them. 


She claimed that she had her first vision during that storm. She eventually lost her sight over the following years. Her visions of the future became stronger during those years as well. 


Over time, she became world renowned for her accurate predictions which included the death of Hitler, Stalin, the Kennedy brothers, and numerous presidential elections. 


With this episode, we'll tell you about her life, her past predictions and what she said is in store for us for 2024 and beyond. 


Thanks so much for listening!
