Get ready for one of history’s most bizarre and brutally physical UFO cases. In this episode, we revisit the wild 1954 wave in Venezuela, where a Cuban businessman named Gustavo González attempted—with his bare hands—to kidnap a small, hairy alien from a glowing orb. His plan backfired spectacularly when the three-foot-tall creature threw him 15 feet through the air. Over the next 40 days, multiple independent witnesses encountered the same aggressive, rock-collecting “dwarves”—creatures with rhino-like skin, paralyzing rays, and a surprising vulnerability to thrown stones. Backed by police reports, medical exams, and credible testimonies, this isn't a story of ligh...

In this episode of Pursuit of the Paranormal, Greg and Sarah from Beyond Our Ordinary take over the episode to break down a brand-new way of understanding spirit communication — a concept we call The Telephone Line Theory.

Is paranormal activity truly random or is it synchronised communication based on People, Objects...

Where ghosts, aliens, and high-strangeness collide…

In the improbably convoluted corridors of cosmic bureaucracy, where advanced civilizations traverse light-years only to suffer from basic provisioning oversights, the 1961 Simonton Encounter stands as a beacon of underwhelming revelation. Joe Simonton, a steadfast Wisconsin plumber and chicken farmer, interrupted his mundane morning chores by a peculiar noise, only to confront a metallic saucer hovering insolently in his yard—not landing with dramatic flair, but lingering aloof like a guest who'd forgotten the invitation. Inside, three five-foot figures in dark uniforms, one bedecked with inexplicable red stripes, wordlessly bartered a two-handled jug for water, offering in return four hot, gr...

The Unbelievable, Utterly Implausible, and Probably Non-Existent Case of Majestic 12

In the convoluted corridors of power and human paranoia, where memos masquerade as cosmic revelations and weather balloons tumble into extraterrestrial intrigue, there lurks the saga of Majestic 12—that alleged 1947 cabal of generals, scientists, and one ironic debunker, hastily assembled by Truman to wrangle Roswell's wreckage and hush up humanoid visitors from the stars. Forged documents whisper of reverse-engineered wonders and shadowy silencing, all debunked by the FBI yet persisting like a stubborn cosmic joke. Join us as we unravel this bureaucratic absurdity, pondering if it's disinformation or...

In this explosive episode of Pursuit of the Paranormal, Greg and Ash dive into the newly declassified footage that’s left the world questioning everything we know about UFOs.

A U.S. Hellfire missile was reportedly fired at a glowing orb off the coast of Yemen — and it didn’t even make a dent.Shown during a recent congressional hearing, the video appears to capture a direct hit that the object simply absorbs… or deflects.

Welcome, sentient beings of Earth. Do you ever feel as though you’ve misplaced your keys, your wallet, or perhaps the entire solution to all of your planetary problems? Then you've come to the right place.
