Dark History 185: The Alaska Triangle: Disappearances, Dead Ends, and the Dark Truth Beneath It All
Oct 8, 2025
56:29
Hi friends, happy Wednesday!
I learned about a place in Alaska where more than 20,000 people have vanished — planes, hikers, politicians — and almost none have ever been found. And I had to do an episode on it.
It’s called the Alaska Triangle and it's a remote stretch of wilderness bigger than California and notorious for swallowing people, aircraft, and evidence whole. No wreckage. No signals. Just… POOF... gone.
Today, we uncover the chilling stories behind those icey disappearances — from a massive military plane that vanished mid-flight, to a congressman investigating JFK's assassination who mysteriously disappeared and may have been silenced.
But... here's the thing... the deeper you go, the stranger it gets. Search crews swear they hear voices in the darkness, rumors swirl about an underground pyramid and apparently there's a government site there that some claim can control the weather.
Is this just a deadly stretch of wilderness? A Cold War cover-up? Or is something far stranger hiding in plain sight? Forget the Bermuda Triangle. Because the Dark History of the Alaska Triangle is going to mess with your head.
