**No more high volume warning for the newscast segment of this episode. Got it all fixed and evened for a smooth listen...about alien lights 👽👽👽

So far on our journey through the Archives, we have covered notorious demon possessions, ghostly encounters and hauntings, urban legends, and conspiracy theories, but what about the mysteries of the sky? The enigma that is space and the universe…aliens and UFOs. There is a plethora of stories and accounts out there that surround extraterrestrials and unidentified flying objects, so many in fact, that I had to spin the Flying Saucer Wheel of Extraterrestrial Encounters just to decide on what story to cover tonight. As fate would decide, the wheel chose a story that takes place in an area that has no shortage of UFO sightings, the Western United States, more specifically, Arizona.

Tonight's episode is a little different and I'm testing the waters, so to speak.
Stories from the Archives will be episodes where I read sci-fi and fantasy fiction that either myself, or others, have written. If you'd like to submit stories for me to read on air, you can submit them through my website linked here.

What may have felt like the worst and, simultaneously, the longest year that a lot of us lived through, is finally over. It’s 2021. But just because the Earth made another complete orbit around the sun and the number changed on the calendar, doesn’t mean that the shit we went through this past year just disappears and all the crap that came with it goes the way of the dodo…but things really aren’t going to change any time soon.  Join me in the Archives as I talk about all conspiracy theories from the last four years that have converged into the insanity that was 2020.

There's a content warning at the beginning of this episode! Please, heed it.

For most of us, the Christmas season is a time of joy, giving, family, and the birth of Jesus Christ. There’s millions of twinkling lights, gaudy holiday bobbles, ornament loaded fir trees, and lots of Christmas goodies to snack on. It’s also full of stories and folklore that are nothing but myth and legend to some who observe the holiday in a more Christian fashion (though their iconography is mostly pagan). But what about the origins of Christmas? Before the times of monotheistic religions and Christian Christmas tales? Before we put the Christ in Christmas, most referred to this holiday season as the Winter Solstice or Yule. For those that celebrated at the time, it wasn’t about shiny wrapping paper, Black Friday sales, or how much you spent on gifts…it was about surviving the hardest time of the year, the part of the cycle where we emphasized survival over anything as we waited for the sun to return.

Tonight’s trip takes us into the city that really never sleeps. No matter what you call it, NOLA, the Crescent City, the Big Easy…we all know about the secrets and legends that New Orleans holds. It’s a city full of diversity, vast cultural experiences, and a lurid history that takes us back almost to our beginnings as a nation. The city is known for its lavish parades during Mardi Gras and its countless Voodoo shops and ghost tours, its creole and Cajun ancestry, the food and the music. Just going to the city is an experience itself, but all of that is surface level beauty that houses a dark past: a history of murder, strong magics, vampires, and plenty of spirits to haunt the city and beyond.

BONUS: Can you figure out where I effed up royally in this episode? Besides tripping over my words and talking to fast :P

Our first stop on our journey to New Orleans takes us to two centuries old plantations just outside one of the country's most haunted cities. Are these beautiful plantations haunted by their past? Or are living beings just looking to keep the dead alive?

Join E as they delve into two very popular cases of Demonic Possession: The Possession of Roland Doe (the case that the Exorcist book and film were based off of) and the Possession of Anneleise Michel (the case that the Exorcism of Emily Rose was based off of)
Are demons actually real? Or are possessions just extreme cases of mental illness?
