The Confessionals

In Episode 383: A Trucker’s Bigfoot Property, we are joined by Dylin who has had creatures on his property since he was a child. The land he lived on was passed down through his family for generations, and what lived in the woods was not spoken about until there was a reason to speak of them. Dylin recalls three separate occasions in his childhood where a bigfoot made itself known, but despite three encounters, Dylin still didn’t realize that there was something unique about this property. He even says that he thought he just had a gorilla living on the land in Louisiana! It wasn’t until Dylin was an adult that he locked eyes with something, and understood what was really happening there – and then all the memories from his childhood flashed before his eyes and started making sense.

In Episode 602: Escaping The Darkness, Yaw recounts his personal journey through the eerie realms of sleep paralysis and unnerving encounters with otherworldly entities. He vividly describes the disconcerting moments of waking up immobilized, accompanied by haunting whispers. One particularly unsettling episode involves a brush with a female spirit identified as a succubus. Yaw draws a chilling connection between these occurrences and his grandmother's alleged involvement in dark spiritual practices as a witch in his native Ghana. Throughout the episode, Yaw underscores the pivotal role of his Christian faith in triumphing over these daunting challenges. Notably, he shares the harrowing experience of encountering a deeply disturbing entity during a toxic relationship. This malevolent being, described as walking on all fours with its head twisted backward and torso facing upwards, adds another layer of horror to Yaw's already chilling narrative.

In Episode 599: The Conjuring House Experiments, we are joined in the studio by Stacy Brown and the Outkast Paranormal crew. Stacy reached out to me, sharing that Outkast Paranormal was the last investigative team to explore the Conjuring House, where the owner gave them free rein, stating, "anything goes." With the property up for sale, the owner was less concerned about the methods used to elicit paranormal activity. The crew took this liberty seriously, attempting various techniques such as descending down wells, opening portals, and even experimenting with unconventional methods like burying individuals alive on the property. As they shared their experiences in the studio, we simultaneously recorded videos of the entire conversation. This interview plays a pivotal role in the final production of their documentary. You'll have the opportunity to not only listen to the full interview but also witness it in the documentary itself. The dialogue becomes an integral part of the film, guiding the narrative seamlessly from scene to scene.

In Episode 597: Fort Polk Dogman, Gabriel shares his encounter with a mysterious creature while he was in the military in 2010. The encounter took place during a training mission in a remote area known as "The Box" inside Fort Polk, Louisiana. Gabriel and his sergeant were tasked with harassing a fake military base during the night, but Gabriel was left alone after his sergeant went back to retrieve a forgotten radio. As he waited alone in the woods, he described feeling a sudden eerie silence in the natural sounds, and he noticed strange occurrences, including a pulsating red light and a large, black shape behind a bush. As his fear intensified, he stood up with his machine gun, intending to fend off what he initially thought might be a bear. However, when he attempted to fire the weapon, a terrifying and powerful roar froze him in his tracks. The creature stood up on two legs and was much taller than him, with yellow, glowing eyes that felt malevolent and ancient. Gabriel felt an intense sense of evil emanating from the creature, leading him to believe it was not an ordinary animal but something far more sinister and supernatural. For years, he had believed it was a demon, and it was only later, in 2021, that he learned about the term "Dogman" as he attempted to make sense of his experience.

Have you ever watched a spine-tingling horror movie and thought, "There's no way that could happen in real life!" Or maybe you've uttered, "I really hope that's not possible!" after a particularly chilling film. But what if it is? What if the lines between Hollywood fiction and unsettling reality blur more than we'd like to admit? In this episode, titled "The Evil Girl in the Backseat," our guest Connor joins The Confessionals to share a hair-raising encounter with what can only be described as the eerie girl from the movie 'The Ring' appearing in the backseat of his car, and he's not the only one who witnessed this eerie presence!
