    The Strange Case of the Cape Girardeau UFO Crash Apr 21, 2023
    Show notes

    It seems that nearly everyone has heard of the UFO incident in Roswell, NM, but did you know there is a very similar story from The Riverlands? Six years before Roswell, Cape Girardeau, Missouri was at the center of a very strange UFO tale. We hope you enjoy the story! Thanks for listening!


    It Came from the River Mar 11, 2023
    Show notes

    Tonight's episode starts with a hoax. For at least a short time in the early 1970s, the hoax caused a media frenzy to descend upon a small backroad looking for a monster that would become known as The Cole Hollow Monster. The fact the Cole Hollow Monster was a hoax has been well documented, but when you dig a little deeper into the legends of something strange lurking along the banks of the Illinois River, one has to wonder could there be something more at the heart of the story. Thanks for listening! Our musical guest for this episode is West End Junction!


    The Haunting of Dogface Bridge Feb 02, 2023
    Show notes

    Along a forgotten backroad in Northwestern Indiana is an old, rusted truss bridge that spans a tributary of the Kankakee River. The bridge is overgrown with brush and on the verge of collapse. It's known officially as Old County Bridge 99, but locals call it a Dogface Bridge after the woman/dog hybrid creature that's said to haunt the bridge. Join us as we dig deeper into the Haunting of Dogface Bridge!


    The Christmas Gift Dec 23, 2022
    Show notes

    Happy holidays from all of us here at the Riverlands Podcast! Join us tonight for a dark Christmas story from Mcleansboro, Illinois on this episode.

Be sure to check out her youtube channel!


    The Miles Mausoleum Dec 02, 2022
    Show notes

    Tucked into a bluff, high above the Mississippi valley in Monroe county, Illinois Miles Mausoleum is full of mystique, extravagance and ultimately, tragedy. Perched on Eagle Cliff, the gleaning white marble building can be seen for miles from the American Bottoms below, which adds to its mystery and cements its place in local legend. It was built by a man seeking fortune and a place in history, like so many who come to the Riverlands. It’s quite a beautiful place with amazing views and of course– it’s said to be extremely haunted. It’s not surprising, the cemetery has seen over a 100 years of destructive vandalism and even an alleged attempt to raise Mr. Miles from the dead by cultists. We hope you enjoy this local legend! Thanks for listening! Our musical guest for this episode is Ella Gibson with her demo "Wrong Generation". Be sure to check Ella out!
