"Do you believe in ghosts? I use to be like many of you. I was a true skeptic. A true disbeliever. That was me until three years ago. Now I do believe. I wish I didn’t. It would be easier for me to sleep at night." ~Steven LaChance, 2004 The Union, Missouri Haunting

In May of 2001, Steven LaChance and his three children moved into a 1932 "Dream Home" but the dreams would soon turn to nightmares as each day passed. 17 Days. Thats what awaits you in this episode (and the multifaceted continuation of the persistent haunting after vacating the property).

FLASHBACK: Mothman Starter Guide: Red Eyed Beast or Alien Visitor? Sep 11, 2020

Show notes

It's time for another FLASHBACK episode! On this episode going us on a trip back thru season 1 with our overview and telling of the MOTHMAN.

“We are dealing with three types of phenomena in these cases. The first is the winged man; the second is a giant bird, so huge it is a biological impossibility; third, we have a monstrous demon with red eyes, bat’s wings, and a body closely human in form. All three are probably interrelated.” ― John A. Keel,The Mothman Prophecies

Today, your hosts go extraterrestrial all up on this case. Join Dakota and Amanda as they try and solve the mystery of the Mothman. What do The Men in Black, A Strange Smiling Man, UFOs, and an 8ft (+) Winged Man Beast all have in common? They all show up to Point Pleasant, WV at an alarming rate in the years proceeding the collapse of the Silver Bridge in December of 1967. Today's episode serves as a starter guide to the Mothman Lore and leaves your hosts with more questions than answers. Like: Was Mothman really an Owl? Is Mothman Death personified? or do we have some Chernobyl Mutant flying in the sky and spreading radioactive conjunctivitis?

Find out this week, on Encounters: A Paranormal Experience.

FLASHBACK: The Possession of Anneliese Michel: A Rose with Many Thorns Aug 28, 2020

Show notes

It's time for another FLASHBACK episode! On this episode going us on a trip back thru season 1 with our overview and telling of ANNELIESE.

"SHE IS COMING!" Screamed the demons on the day meant to be the final exorcism, the expulsion day. Journey back with the Encounters team to learn the story of Anneliese Michel. The story of Anneliese takes us back to the 1960s to a sixteen year old begins to suffer mental health problems that would leave the host feeling a more "sinister" presence or presences... The Michal case would go on to greatly impact Vatican law and treatment of mental health and help turn the exorcism rights into archaic secrets lost to the shadows of the church. We hope to illuminate the struggle and impact of this 7 year long case and hope to bring light to the often frogetten face behind "Emily Rose".

**Warning: This episode features audio from the actual recorded sessions of Anneliese Michel. The audio is terrifying but we think sharing it is important. You've been warned. If you wish to skip the demonic voices jump from 15:23 to 22:42.**

RIP Anna Elisabeth "Anneliese" Michel

Born: 09/21/1952 - Died: 07/01/1976

Age: 23
