#75: 21st Century Dragons Apr 01, 2019

Show notes

There is not a culture on Earth whose peoples do not have what some claim to be historical tales of mammoth, quasi-reptilian, often fire breathing monstrosities known as dragons. This globally ubiquitous beast's origins have been traced back to 40,000 years ago when legends of these savage saurians first emerged from Sub-Saharan Africa. But now, as modern technology canvasses the planet and traditional beliefs in monsters of legend have all but faded from our collective consciousness, there has been a sudden and inexplicable surge in sightings of flesh and blood animals that can only be identified as dragons.

#74: Draguignan Entities Mar 25, 2019

Show notes

If the French New Wave maestro Jean-Luc Godard had decided to film a neo-realist, sci-fi interpretation of a Hardy Boys mystery, it could have been no more thought-provoking, surreal or disconcerting than the actual events that purportedly befell to a group of unsuspecting French youths autumn of 1973.

Show notes

The 2 for 1 Mystery Bag Monday!

MANDURAH GOBLIN: (AUSTRALIA)While world was caught in the throes of the great depression, one family wiled their days away in a simple shack on a once remote expanse of Australian coastline; but their rural respite would be shattered by a brief yet utterly shocking home invasion by a diminutive goblin-like being that seemed to have sprung fully formed from the pages of a Grimm's fairytale.

DEADLY DEMON OF MAFRA: (BRAZIL) In the 1980s a young family heard a series of strange sounds emanating from their front yard. As jittery as these noises made them, they could never have anticipated just how terrifying the diabolical apparition that they would find lurking just beyond the door would actually be.

Show notes

Near the end of the 1950s – in the wee hours of a bitter January morning – a devoted mother was driving through a violent snowstorm in order to visit her son. Although the visibility was near zero, she managed to catch sight of a piece of technology that was beyond her understanding and, what's worse, she also spied the mind-boggling beings that were apparently occupied the massive vehicle.
