Ep 84Sleep Paralysis, Ghosts, and Phantom Phone Calls

Episode 84: Timothy has a wide-ranging conversation with John about paranormal experience, high strangeness, and The Other.

Ep 80William of the Fiery Flowers

Episode 80: Alison and Timothy discuss the wondrous life of William Woodruff, a hermit from Colebrook River, Connecticut. From newspaper articles, town histories, census records, wills, and various other sources, we piece together William's story - a fatherless child turned town dandy, who walked away from society, grew hollyhocks, gazed at the stars, and kept a vow of silence for much of his life. We also discuss a "wild man" flap which occurred in the area during William's lifetime - and tell the tale of William being mistaken for bigfoot.

Ep 60Belsnickel, the Christmas Wild Man

Episode 60: For our holiday episode, Timothy and Alison talk Belsnickel, the wild man of Pennsylvania Christmastime. Much fiercer and stranger than a simple proto-Santa Claus figure, Belsnickel was called a "bad faerie" and "half-man, half-beast" - which came from the forest at night to haunt children. Timothy and Alison read multiple historical accounts of the frightening Belsnickel smacking walls, peeking in windows, speaking in unknown languages, and generally behaving like a bigfoot creature. Timothy also presents an old song and a poem about Belsnickel uncovered in the research for this episode.

We also discuss some upcoming events Strange Brau is holding with Ron Morehead as well as the regular Strange Brau conferences in Oregon.

Ep 41Black Eyed Children

Episode 41: Timothy talks with David Weatherly about the phenomenon of black eyed kids (BEKs) and his book, Black Eyed Children. Strange children are approaching people across the globe. They are asking to be let in to homes, vehicles and businesses. Their awkward mannerisms, plain clothing, and pale skin suggest there is something odd about these children, but their solid black eyes inspire terror. Are they related to vampires, the Men in Black phenomenon, or alien greys? What happens when these beings are let in?

Ep 38Chasing the Elusive Pennsylvania Bigfoot

Episode 38: Timothy discusses the recently published book Chasing the Elusive Pennsylvania Bigfoot with Brian Seech. While Brian did not write the book, he has worked closely with the author, Paul G. Johnson, for many years. We cover some of the ideas and cases from the book including a few of the stranger aspects of Pennsylvania bigfoot sightings: UFOs, disappearing bigfoot creatures, and more – and the idea that some of this “spooky” activity may be explained by quantum physics. Brian also talks about some of his research with the Center for Cryptozoological Studies.

Ep 27Lights in the Woods

Episode 27: Timothy briefly revisits Flannel Man (see episode 26) and reads a new encounter submitted by a listener. Timothy and James K., while sitting in a haunted church in Columbia PA (more on that in a future episode), discuss some very unusual lights seen at Site 7. Then we turn to on-site recordings to hear Timothy, James R., and Jeff visit Site 7 to see and interact with the weird lights. James R. sees a large shadowy figure in the trees. More unusual sounds are heard coming from the trees. If you haven't listened to our first two Site 7 episodes you may want to check those out first to get some background on all the strange phenomena associated with the area.

Ep 24Sasquatch and the Faerie Realm

Episode 24: Timothy and Joshua Cutchin discuss a very strange article from Timothy's latest book, "Bigfoot: West Coast Wild Men". Joshua has made many observations in the past linking different modern paranormal phenomena with folkloric accounts of Celtic faerie encounters. This particular article, dating from 1857, contains a vast amount of elements which seem to link this bigfoot abduction with faerie lore.
