IS BIGFOOT ACTUALLY CAIN FROM THE BIBLE? Some Mormons Say It's True

IS BIGFOOT ACTUALLY CAIN FROM THE BIBLE? Some Mormons Say It's True

In 1835, a Mormon apostle claimed he met Cain on a Tennessee road. Today, some believers think Bigfoot sightings are actually encounters with the Bible's first murderer, cursed to wander the earth forever. We examine the evidence, the theology, and what this strange theory reveals about ourselves. Join the DARKNESS SYNDICATE: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicate Take the WEIRD DARKNESS LISTENER SURVEY and help mold the future of the podcast: https://weirddarkness.com/survey IN THIS EPISODE: We're diving into one of the strangest theories ever proposed about Bigfoot's identity. We'll explore the Mormon folklore that suggests Sasquatch isn't an undiscovered ape, but rather the cursed son of Adam and Eve, still walking the earth as punishment for murdering his brother Abel. We'll examine the evidence believers cite, as well as the theological problems that make scholars skeptical – and certain podcasters who are skeptical about it too.Whether you're a cryptozoology enthusiast, a student of religion, or just someone who loves a good mystery or strange story, prepare yourself for a journey that blurs the lines between ancient scripture and modern monster sightings.

THE REAL MURDER BEHIND 'WHEN A STRANGER CALLS': The Unsolved Case That Inspired the Urban Legend

THE REAL MURDER BEHIND 'WHEN A STRANGER CALLS': The Unsolved Case That Inspired the Urban Legend

In 1950, a teenage babysitter's frantic call to police was cut short by her brutal murder - a real-life horror that would evolve into one of America's most chilling urban legends and inspire countless retellings, including the classic horror-thriller film "When a Stranger Calls."

So why did it take over two years for people to realize she had died? (No One Noticed She Was Dead) *** A castle in Scotland is so cursed that it has continued for several generations. (The Centuries Old Curse of Fyvie Castle) *** Year after year a 1950 photo from a German newspaper has continued to circulate amongst Ufologists and UFO enthusiasts. The story claims to show a short extraterrestrial humanoid standing next to two full-sized men. So why hasn’t Germany admitted to the photo’s validity? (The Little Green Man That Refused to Die) *** “The call is coming from inside the house.” These eight words have been uttered by countless children, and mark one of the most popular urban legends of all time. This legend, unfortunately, is rooted in a real unsolved murder case from 1950.
