Mysterious Universe

• 34.04 - MU Podcast - The Occult Wyrm

  The mystery of the Loch Ness Monster is far from settled. This episode dives deep into the legends and firsthand accounts of strange beings not only in Loch Ness but in surrounding bodies of water—creatures described as black-skinned beasts, spectral water horses, and other mythic entities that seem deeply tied to the land itself. Are these guardians of the landscape? Spirits of place? We revisit the curious investigations of Ted Holiday, whose search for the monster led him into a tangled web of high strangeness and encounters with dark, paranormal forces. Then, for our Plus+ members, we follow the remarkable journey of T.C. Lethbridge and his evolving research into the hidden energies of the Earth. After a powerful induction experience, Lethbridge claimed to glimpse what lies behind the veil—an invisible world that shapes ghost sightings, psychic phenomena, and even physical boundaries. His exploration of a haunted landscape led him to an invisible force field that defied logic and deepened the mystery of what truly haunts our world.

• 34.03 - MU Podcast - Treading the Infinite

  In this episode, we dive into the radical theories of parapsychologist D. Scott Rogo, who suggested that many hauntings, abductions, and even poltergeist phenomena might not come from outside forces, but from within ourselves. Could we be unknowingly manifesting our own paranormal experiences? And what if some forms of mental illness or multiple personality disorder are actually cases of spirit obsession or full-blown possession? We also journey through the hidden chambers and forbidden tunnels of a world-famous institution, where ancient relics and human remains seem to stir with unrest. Staff and psychics alike report ghostly voices, locked doors opening on their own, and encounters with entities that cling to artifacts like shadows. Are these echoes of colonial violence, or the spirits of the dead refusing to be forgotten?

• 34.02 - MU Podcast - Underground Hybrid Vault

  Eric Nanstiel lived an ordinary life as a graphic designer and single father. But buried beneath that normalcy were decades of terrifying experiences: glowing orbs emerging from closets, unexplained blackouts, and chilling encounters with beings that defy explanation. When his memories resurfaced they revealed a disturbing truth: a life entangled with non-human entities conducting invasive experiments, extracting genetic material, and showing him children he never knew he fathered. Who are they? Why do they hide underground? And what is their endgame for humanity? For our Plus+ members, we descend into the eerie folklore of Latin America, where tales of phantom black dogs and flying humanoid canines erupt from the shadows. Are they mythical guardians or manifestations linked to deeper, hidden forces? We explore their strange overlap with UFO encounters and uncover new threads in the global tapestry of high strangeness.

• 34.01 - MU Podcast - Cursed Exposure

  Photography and the paranormal have always shared a strange chemistry—an eerie interplay of light, shadow, and the unknown. In our Season 34 opener, we venture deep into chilling accounts of cursed cameras that seem to bring death with every click, psychic photo séances where the dead imprint themselves onto film, and long-forgotten experiments suggesting photography may capture echoes of the past… or even the soul. From haunted Polaroids to Russian scientists claiming to photograph time itself, we unravel the unsettling history of spirit photography—and how it continues to haunt the present. Then in our Plus+ extension, we follow the trail into the neuroscience of DMT, exploring a controversial theory: have alien intelligences hijacked the molecule? With insights from Andrew Gallimore’s new book 'Death by Astonishment', we confront disturbing accounts of malevolent entities intercepting psychonauts, twisting ancient rituals into interdimensional traps. Could the veil be weaponized? All that and more in this new season’s unnerving opener.

• 33.22 - MU Podcast - The Orphan Tulpa

  What if one of the most iconic characters in pop culture wasn’t just a fictional hero, but a living archetype, an entity with its own will, forged in the minds of millions and fed by the imagination of its creators? Legendary comic book writer Alvin Schwartz thought his time with Superman was long over. But when a mysterious seven-foot-tall monk appeared at his doorstep claiming to be a tulpa, Schwartz was thrown into a mind-bending journey through the strange borderlands of reality and fiction. The monk, calling himself Thongden, insisted he was real… and fading. And he needed Schwartz to keep him alive. In this season finale, we explore the metaphysical memoir An Unlikely Prophet, uncovering Schwartz’s hidden memories of psychic events, spontaneous channeling, and paranormal influences that began the moment he took on the mantle of Superman’s writer. We hear bizarre tales of supernatural inspiration involving Jackson Pollock, mystic paintings of Hindu deities, and even a Hawaiian shaman who claims Tulpa Superman once saved the islands from volcanic doom. Then for our Plus+ members, we dive into the chilling Soviet archives of anomalous underwater encounters—where submariners report collisions with invisible crafts, stone spheres ramming hulls, and USOs that defy radar and reason. We follow the trail of Russian researcher Mikhail Gerstein into lakes and oceans where strange entities dwell beneath the surface, including terrifying run-ins from elite “hydronauts” who may have seen things no one was meant to survive.
