The beast of the LBL seems to have made a resurgence, on the internet that is, so while I finished up some research on a topic I figured this would be the best time to revisit the Beast of the LBL and see if the areas history holds any clues as to what might be attacking campers in the night!

Do fae folk exist outside of Ireland? i know we here at Almost Canon believe they do! So this week were venturing deep into the arctic circle and investigating the stories of the 'Little People', specifically the Arctic Pygmies. We then follow the trail out of the snow and ice and into the mountains where stories of these fae-like beings are still told. We look at whether the vikings battled these pygmies when they landed on the eastern shores 1000 years ago; we look at stories told by high arctic explorers as well as stories told by prospectors and adventures...

This week we do a deep dive into the Nahanni Valley otherwise known as the Valley of the Headless Men.

We wanted to make sure you got your Fae fix before the big day next week! listen to Alice tell the story of how her and her sister saw what can only be described as a fae folk watching them from behind a tree in the woods behind their house. This story was taken from our The Fae Wood episode but it remains one of the best fae stories i've ever heard. Its creepy. Its mysterious. It's from my own backyard. And its believable! Also check out the full "The Fae Wood" epiosde for more stories told by Alice! <...

As my notes ran long as the original episode I was going to drop today I figured id fill the slot with a recast of the Tuatha De Danann part 1 episode I did way back when, so that way we can at least prepare for Saint Patricks Day while we wait for the original episode to drop.

The Tuatha De are a great topic to get into when talk about the Watchers or Nephilim due to the fact that these mythical beings from Irish folklore were originally know as the People of God before their name...

This week we head deep into the Yukon, not for gold but for monsters! We take a look at the Partridge Creek Monster story, which is about a hunting party that came face to face with a prehistoric beast, 65 million years old!

We also take a look at other living dinosaur and lake monster stories from the north and ask the question: could these be physical projections due to a scientific theory called the 'stone tape theory'?

This week we take a look at the Ariel School UFO incident, which happened in September of 1994. On the morning of September 16th, 1994, 62 children, while playing out at recess, witnessed a mysterious object fall from the sky and land in the field near their playground. What happened from there is something straight out of a Spielberg or Cameron film. Four entities exited the craft and began psychically communicating with the students, showing these 10 years olds, all sorts of images of a dying world. The encounter was heavily investigated and is widely considered to be one of the best documented...

As i was recently on another show, sharing what i know about the Bennington Triangle, I thought it would be a good idea to revisit the Tabaldak Connection, but in a much more refined way.

If you want answers as to what's going on in the Bennington Triangle then this is an episode you won't want to miss!

The two had started their trip by parking in a lot near a piece of property they owned and began walking into the woods. It wasn't long until Boyd began hearing something something them. It would walk when they walked and stopped when they stopped. He pointed this out to his father, who couldn't hear that good, but they continued on to their hunt. But it didn't take long for Boyd to figure out what was...

This week we talk about Bigfoot in Vermont otherwise known as the Green Mountain State. Vermont is one of the smallest states in the Union but it is incredibly wooded. At 4.5 million acres of forested land and about 78% of the state, it's no doubt Sasquatch have been reported in Vermont for hundreds of years. we'll start by going over some of the more well known encounters and then dive into a book by Jason Lorefice called Vermont Bigfoot Encounters and Beyond, where we find some pretty interesting information even I didn't know about.

As winter firmly wraps it's icy fingers around us, I thought it would be more than appropriate to dive into three first hand encounters that deal with one of cryptozoologies most misunderstood entities....the Wendigo.So this week, as we come back from our hiatus, we kick the new year off with three incredibly chilling stories. The first deals with a hunter, who is in turn, hunted by the creature, while hunting deer in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. The second is a story about a stranded snowmobiler who comes face to face with something he had heard about...

After hearing from friend of the show, Thom Pollard, and being told about an abandoned campsite found not too far from me, in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, I decided to cover two Missing 411 cases that have fascinated me for 15 years.

Our first case takes place in Washington State and involves a climber who seemingly disappeared from the end of a climbing rope, almost as though he unclipped and stepped out into the sky.

The second case involves a climber in California who vanished in broad daylight from the middle of...

You'll be getting two episodes this week. One is a re-post in honor of hunting season, a time of year where unsuspecting, non-believers, find out the hard way that there are things out there we can't explain. Just like the main subject in this episode.

So our guest tonight has hunted a family plot for years and on this particular year, he and his daughter came face to face with a beast, they could only describe as Bigfoot. They then ran for their lives, out of this area locally known as 'the Gulf' and back to the...

I wasn't able to finish all my notes for this weeks episodes. So while I finish whipping that up, here's a repost of an encounter a woman had with a patient who was often seen at the hospital she worked at. Except this time, she had a front row seat, sitting just in front of the woman's room. Now, she wasn't a nurse, but she did witness some very strange activity coming from the room, activities that would suggest the woman was possessed....

This week we take a look at one of the strangest Missing 411 case you've probably never heard of, I know I hadn't up until this point. We heard a lot about Dennis Martin, Stacy Arras, or Sammy Boehlke, but there are so many missing children within the page of the Missing 411 book series its not surprising there are cases that don't seem to get a lot of attention. And the Case of Douglas or "Dougie" Legg is one of those cases. So sit back, relax and enjoy this weeks episode.

This week we take a trip back to 18th century France and investigate the Beast of Gévaudan. Was it a werewolf? Maybe a rouge wolf or some exotic creature. I mean, the reign of terror brought on by the beast was well documented and still we have no idea what exactly the beast was! So on this episode we'll talk with Wen from Cryptozoology Facts, who just so happens to be somewhat of an expert on this topic and maybe she can help bring a little more clarity to the mystery that has been dubbed....The beast of G...

On this Columbus Day we figured it would be a good idea to remind people that Columbus certainly didn't discover 'America'. Nor did he even make it to main land North America. However there was a group of Europeans who did! and they did it almost 500 years before Columbus set sail from Spain. These Europeans were the Greenlandic Vikings and according to their sagas of old, They may have made it as far south as Massachusetts and as far west as Minnesota

In this episode Nick goes over several Viking artifact discovered over the last couple hundred...

This was something Nick experienced while living in Northern NH in an old, house that even looked haunted to the casual passerby.

We get the low down on what HOR has discovered, why he believes it's so important.

After exploring the topic of our ancient past we bring Antediluvian Landfill back on and go over some of the questions that arose during his last episode. Questions like: who could have had the power to create these massive earthworks we see throughout the world? What sort of Technology did they possess? Where did they come from? and most importantly, are they still around and if so what do they want? This episode is another deep dive into our ancient past where we take a closer look at how it connects to the here and now.

There is something big here. Like a giant piece of the puzzle has been uncovered. So if ancient history and forgotten civilizations like Atlantis or Lemuria is your thing then this is an episode you won't want...

You’ve heard of meteor strikes. You’ve heard of nuclear tests. You’ve heard of alien crash landings. But what if I told you there was an explosion in 1908 so powerful, so sudden, so completely unexplained—that it flattened 80 million trees, lit the night skies in Europe, and shook the world’s scientific community for over a century?

This isn’t fiction. This isn't myth or legend. This is the story of the Tunguska Event—a real-life cosmic mystery buried in the frozen swamps of Siberian tygga. 

So on this weeks episode of Almost Canon...
