Otherworld

A man named Alex had a prolonged and terrifying encounter with what he believes to be Bigfoot. But this story is very different from what most of us are probably used to when we think of the infamous Cryptid, and it raises questions about what Bigfoot could possibly be.During the Covid-19 lockdown, Alex needed an escape and decided to go camping in the Uwharrie National Forest by himself. The park was closed and off-limits, but he found a very isolated spot and hiked in all by himself to set up camp. Upon entering the woods, he described an electric static feeling coming over his body—a sense of crossing over a veil—and started to experience what can only be described as telepathic impressions. Over the course of the day and night, Alex experienced a series of bizarre and terrifying events that left him confused and traumatized. Only later, after researching what happened to him, did he learn that these things are all connected to the sightings of Bigfoot.Everyone interviewed in this series signed a document stating that they are telling the truth, and not being deceptive in any way.Stay tuned for Part 2 of this episode.To see photos related to this episode, click hereSubscribe to Otherworld on Patreon for exclusive content and bonus interviewsCheck out our MerchFollow us on: Instagram, TikTok, Twitter To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

During his childhood, Alec experienced a peculiar phenomenon where he would find himself outside of his own body at night. Upon awakening, he would observe his sleeping form before embarking on a journey to explore his own home. Initially, this activity was enjoyable, but he was apprehensive about entering a specific area downstairs, sensing an ominous presence beckoning him toward it. Eventually, he mustered the courage to venture into that area, only to be tormented by an entity for several hours, a haunting experience that persisted into his teenage years.Alec now believes the entity that tormented him in his childhood was The Night Hag or The Old Hag. This is a supernatural creature that shows up in almost every country and culture around the world, going back very far into history. In fact, the word nightmare even comes from folklore about this entity!This is part one of a two-part series.

Terra sees a pyramid-shaped UFO above her swing set in Tucson Arizona. It may have been a vision, a dream, or real life. Afterward, she begins to experience prophetic dreams and unusual abilities that she believes might be connected.This episode is the first of a few interviews I have done that feature strangely similar aspects. Things I wouldn't think too much about if I didn't notice them repeating between people that are completely unrelated. And of course, I wouldn't be pointing all this out if I didn't already have something it was leading towards.Also, on Patreon this week I have an interview with an Oxford Biologist about miners in South America who worship Satan, aka "El Tio" who they believe protects them while underground.

Two friends believe they may have accidentally summoned a demonic entity while imitating something they saw on Gwenyth Paltrow's Netflix show "Goop Lab".Possible Correction: The Goop Labs episode in question was "Episode 6: Are You Intuit?", not the episode specifically about Energy Healing.Special thanks to Melinda Lee Holmes for answering my questions. Melinda is an author, Tarot expert, and "witch about town". She also worked at a crystal shop in Los Angeles for many years, so if there's such thing as a "Goop Incident" expert, she is probably that too.To see photos related to this episode, click hereSubscribe to Otherworld on Patreon for exclusive content and bonus interviewsCheck out our MerchFollow us on: Instagram, TikTok, Twitter If you have experienced something paranormal or unexplained, email us your full story at stories@otherworldpod.com To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.
