  • Mud Flood: Myth or Reality | St. Mary Magdalene Church in Omaha

    In this video, I tackle the claims that St. Mary Magdalene Church in Omaha, Nebraska, fell victim to the "mud flood" theory. We'll explore the origins of this myth, examine historical records, and analyze the church's architecture to reveal the truth. Join me as we separate fact from fiction and clarify the reality behind this historic site.

    All historical photos can be found at the Durham Museum online collection.

  • Debunking the Legend of Jacko - British Columbia's Cryptid Sensation

    Travel back to 1884, when the province of British Columbia was abuzz with tales of a mysterious creature known as Jacko the Ape-Boy. Allegedly captured on the train tracks outside of Yale, Jacko was said to be half man and half beast, and some of the biggest names in cryptozoology and hominology have given their opinions on the Jacko story over the past 75 years. It’s a tantalizing mystery, but was Jacko ever real?

  • The Brunswick Giant: Medical Anomaly or Relict Hominoid Hybrid?

    In 1892, a local excavation near Brunswick, GA, revealed a startling discovery: five skeletons buried in a small Indian mound, with one measuring between 8 and 9 feet tall. This find adds to a growing list of giant skeletons unearthed across North America, many within mounds attributed to Native American cultures. What could these giants represent? Are they medical anomalies, or perhaps evidence of hybridization with relict hominoid species?

  • "Chickly Cudly", "Kecleh Kudleh", and the Real Cherokee Bigfoot

    In 1793, a South Carolina man documented an "Indian" term for a supposed Bigfoot: Chickly Cudly. In the 1990's, "Chickly Cudly" was incorrectly transliterated as a supposed Cherokee term "Kecleh Kudleh" meaning 'hairy man." My research shows that this is an incorrect transliteration of Chickly Cudly into the Cherokee language and provides the correct Cherokee term and translation.

  • The Magnetic Mohican and Underwater UFOs

    Set sail on a voyage of mystery and intrigue as we unravel the enigmatic tale of the British steamship Mohican. In 1904, amidst the vast expanse of the Atlantic Ocean, the crew of the Mohican encountered an otherworldly phenomenon that defied explanation. A dense, gray fog, illuminated by an eerie glow, descended upon the vessel, enveloping it in a surreal spectacle. Compasses spun wildly, chains became magnetized to the deck, and the crew found themselves paralyzed by an unseen force. As they struggled to make sense of the surreal encounter, questions arose: What caused this bizarre event? Was it a natural occurrence or something more sinister? Join us as we delve into the depths of history and science, exploring theories ranging from electromagnetic anomalies to the possibility of extraterrestrial intervention. Prepare to be captivated by the Mystery of the Magnetic Mohican.
