(Crashed Saucers and Dead Aliens in the U.K.) *** Falling in love is a beautiful thing – unless doing so sparks a murder spree. If BJ and Erika had never met, several people would still be alive today. (A Match Made in Hell)

HIDEOUS HAUNTING HUMANOIDS OF TEXAS: Goat Man, Human Bats, Blue Men, La Malacosa, and Other Horrors Playing

HIDEOUS HAUNTING HUMANOIDS OF TEXAS: Goat Man, Human Bats, Blue Men, La Malacosa, and Other Horrors

People across Texas have been reporting creatures built like men for generations, from a hulking figure with glowing red eyes watching a family's ranch house near Amarillo in 1970 to a white humanoid with wings that a driver says overtook his car on Interstate 37 thirty years later. EPISODE BLOG PAGE (includes sources): https://weirddarkness.com/TexasHumanoids READ or DOWNLOAD the full transcript of this episode: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/5n8jax4r FEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: Reports have been coming in for decades of hairy creatures in Texas something like a bipedal wolf, or maybe a Sasquatch. Other reports have the creature with no hair at all. Even stranger – whatever this creature, or creatures may be, it’s not always on the ground that they are spotted, but in the sky as well. (Hairy Humanoids of Texas) *** In October of 1973, two fisherman reported seeing a space ship – and two extraterrestrials emerge from the craft when it hovered near the ground. Was this a true case of a close encounter of the third kind, or was something else going on? (Close Encounter in Pascagoula) *** 
The subject of Interview with a Serial Killer — streaming on Netflix now — speaks out in his own chilling words. We’ll reveal the killer inside the thoughts of Arthur Shawcross. (Inside The Twisted Mind of Arthur Shawcross) *** The two most famous goat-like cryptids cause havoc in their respective American hometowns. We’ll look at both the Maryland Goatman and the Pope Lick Monster. (Cloven-Hoff Cryptids) *** Weirdo family member Tyler shares some of the numerous odd things that happened at his house while growing up. It sounds like the woman who used to live there may have decided to return after death to continue her residence.

TERRIFYING TRUE FOREST HORROR STORIES: There Is Nowhere To Run To In The Woods Playing

TERRIFYING TRUE FOREST HORROR STORIES: There Is Nowhere To Run To In The Woods

People living and working in remote areas often encounter things far creepier than just silence. These are real-life stories of unsettling encounters, from faces at the window to gruesome discoveries deep in the woods. EPISODE BLOG PAGE (includes sources): https://weirddarkness.com/ForestHorror READ or DOWNLOAD the full transcript of this episode: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/2p8cuh5y FEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: People who live and work in remote areas know that sometimes too much quiet can make your mind race. However, some experiences stick with people long after they occur because of the degree of creepiness. On Reddit, plenty of people who live in rural areas or make their livelihood there, share their scary stories for the rest of us to freak out over. We know that often strange people linger around woods, parks, and other desolate areas. And we have all heard plenty of the kind of creepy stories that backpackers experience. However, in this episode, the stories are more than a little unpleasant, because the people who suffered them weren't just out and about anywhere; they were at their homes, or doing their jobs. Imagine living in the woods, and looking up from your bathtub to see a face looking back at you. Or imagine you are working as a forest ranger and come across a thumb nailed to a tree. Tonight I will share some of the terrifying real-life stories, stories that are the stuff of nightmares.
