This week we are going back to some creepy to take a break from the rage with a poltergeist.

In the 1950's Battersea was a quaint town when one family suddenly came under attack by an unseen force. For years this family was assaulted and tormented by and entity they named Donald, until one day he just left.

This story was made into an 8 part podcast named The Battersea Poltergeist that we recommend you listen to after this episode if you would like a more in depth look into the case, and to hear it from one of the survivors herself.

This week Ian gives us a walk through the life of famed author and poet Conrad Aiken, whom we had an experience with during our vacation.

While taking a stroll through Bonaventure Cemetery the day we came home we all felt the need to take a rest. And we felt called to do so on Mr. Aikens tombstone, which was built as a bench. It can be seen on our instagram channel in a reel from our trip.

Conrad lives a long life filled with tragedy, love, and great works of poetry, and in the end all he wanted was for people to " Spread My Love To The World" as it states on this stone.

This episode was supposed to come out at the end of pride month but here we are. Some people may call this a conspiracy but this is very real.

Conversion therapy has been around since the late 18, early 1900's. Between talk therapy, and medical surgeries, the " treatments" for this "disorder" have varied. There has also been know varying degrees of damage and trauma that have come from these " therapies.

On the night of November 9th 1979 forestry worker Robert Taylor was out in the woods with his dog when he had an experience that no one can explain.

Not even the investigators that came out to investigate and opened a report on the incident. As far as we know this is the only case of possible abduction that was investigated by law enforcement.

Due to life we do not have a new TPL episode today but that doesn't mean you don't get an episode. 

As we come to the end of Pride month we highlight a case that shows not only the dangers of being queer, but also the dangers of dating LEO, and the dangers of leaving an abusive situation. 

After having what some might call a situationship, Jesse moved on and began dating Luke some months later. But his "ex", former, Constable Beau Lamarre Condon would not do the same. After months of stalking and harassment Condon took his obsession with Jesse to the deadliest of lengths.

This week we are looking at a legend of Jewish Folklore that Felicia fines fascinating.

Golems are brought forth for a multitude of reasons but more often than not it is for hard labor or protection. But the things we build to protect us can also be the very thing that leads to our down fall.

Happy Pride folks! Ian tried his best to find us a queer abduction story but believe it or not, he couldn't find much. But what he did find was a youtube channel featuring a team of LGBT+ ghost hunters looking for the queer ghost everyone else has missed.

Although they haven't been active in a while we do have their channel linked below so after watching this, go find out what happens next.

As a recovering christian and a pagan, the Jewish people are ones that don't bother me. May just be my experience but not once has a Jewish person tried to push their faith on me. But that's probably because I haven't met anyone from this sect.

Lev Tahor is an ultra extreme orthodox Jewish sect most people would describe as a cult. In fact, in Israel they are known as the Jewish Taliban. That tells you really all you need to know but this episode covers their creation, their former leader and his crimes, and their current leader and the crimes they are known for now.

I began my research for this episode looking at one case of an MMIW. Then I ran into a few more cases. Then I ran into something I did not expect.

In this episode we are going to go all the way back to when "settlers" first came to this area, and work our way forward to how that still affects the indigenous community to this day.

Long before the US got their dirty hands on the Hawaiian Island, there was already a rich, thriving culture.

One of their most intriguing legends is that if The Night Marchers. This is a band of warriors that is said to march to protect the Chiefs, Chieftess, and other important people of the islands.

To run into these Marchers almost assuredly means your death. That is unless you have an ancestor in the ranks, or you can make them believe you are insane and take pity on you.
