Unexplained Hauntings, Spirits, & Paranormal Activity Oct 26, 2016

Show notes

In this episode of Strange Matters we discuss four unexplained mysteries and legendary tales. Each of these cases involve the potential of hauntings, paranormal activity, and spiritual involvement. From one of the world’s most haunted locations, to a mysterious bleeding house, and two tales of malignant spirits, the topics discussed in this episode are as interesting as they are spooky.

In the Black Forest Haunting, the Lee family moved into an isolated log home set in the thickest regions of the woods. Shortly after moving in, the family began to experience strange and disturbing activity for which they could not explain. Loud and random sounds, lights turning on and off, mysterious break-ins, and most disturbing of all sightings of shadow figures and ghostly apparitions in the house. Neither the police nor home security systems could explain logically what was going on. In desperation, the Lees turned to Psychic Investigators, ghost busters, and local shamans in an attempt to understand the bizarre nature of their home.

The Atlanta Blood House makes for a strange and unique mystery. The Winston couple shockingly discovered one day a red substance splattered and pooled all over their house. After a quick police investigation and forensic testing, it was confirmed that the red liquid found in the Winston’s home was actually human blood. Where this large amount of blood came from and for what reason it appeared is still unknown to this day.

Lastly we cover two old legendary tales involving troublesome spirits. The Taotaomo’na is an ancestral spirit believed to roam certain areas of Guam. These spirits were known to be very territorial, and great care and respect must be given when passing through these lands… or else.

Finally we present the tale of La Llorona, a malevolent spirit which has been haunting Southwestern Hispanic cultures for centuries. La Llorona was once a beautiful young woman who became a mother to two children. However, after she committed an unspeakable crime, this woman would pass on to becoming this fearful spirit. The legend goes that La Llorona still prowls the nights in search of young victims to claim as her own.

Lt. Colonel Percival Harrison Fawcett was a man among men. A leader in the British military and an expedition who had been out on countless excursions into uncharted and enemy territory was obsessed with the idea of a lost yet wondrous city in the deep jungle of the Amazon. In the early 20th century, he set out on his third and last expedition in search of this great alleged myth. This adventure would present numerous obstacles including but not limited to vicious jaguars, reptiles and angry natives.

2 long years passed without any word from the rugged Fawcett, his son Jack and Jack’s friend Raleigh Rimell. Various different explanations have been suggested many of which have significant degrees of plausibility. Could these brave men have gone native and simply joined the Indians in the Amazonian jungle? Perhaps a strange obsession with the cult known as Theosophy had something to do with their disappearance. Listen in to this episode and find out!

**The Mystery of Dorothy Jane Scott** Aug 14, 2016
Show notes

For months, Dorothy Jane Scott had been receiving disturbing phone calls from an obsessed and violent stalker. This mysterious caller promised Dorothy that he would soon take her, and that she belonged to him. On one fateful night, Dorothy dropped a wounded colleague off at a hospital, and then later walked back out into the dark parking lot. That was the last time she was seen.

As strange as this event was, it is merely the beginning of what is one of the darkest and creepiest mysteries yet covered by Strange Matters. Once Dorothy had vanished, her stalker did not simply disappear as well. Instead, he turned his attention to her family, persistently tormenting them with conflicting knowledge of their loved one’s fate.

Check out this episode where the dark and downright unnerving mystery of Dorothy Jane Scott is discussed. All the known theories and ideas are also presented in an attempt to make sense of it all.

The Dyatlov Pass Incident Aug 05, 2016

Show notes

In the freezing winter of 1959, nine experienced hikers traveled deep into the Russian mountains. When these hikers missed their deadline on what was supposed to be a brief journey, a search and rescue attempt was sent into the mountains. What the investigators discovered would become one of the most baffling and intriguing mysteries of all time, known today as the Dyatlov Pass Incident.

Rescuers would eventually find the hikers, all frozen and deceased, spread out across the mountain slope and woods. For unknown reasons, at some point in the middle of the night the hikers had all run out of their tent into the freezing cold. Their equipment and supplies were all found intact and undamaged. Stranger still, the hikers had not even taken the time to properly dress before scattering away from the tent. The bodies of the hikers would eventually be found in separate locations on the mountain. To further confuse the investigators, several of the bodies showed traumatic internal damage, without any outward wounds or signs of distress.

What exactly happened to those veteran hikers that night? Were they chased out by a pack of veracious animals, or even violent humans? Were they the unfortunate victims of a secret soviet military experiment? Or perhaps the mountain claimed them with an unstoppable avalanche.

Listen to this episode as we discuss of one of our favorite mysteries as we go over all the theories, both plausible and outlandish, and also dispel some of the myths and legends that are attributed to the Dyatlov Pass Incident.
