Belief Hole | Paranormal, Mysteries and Other Tasty Thought Snacks

Show Notes

We’re back with our first ‘Strange Listener Stories’ of season 8! 👊

👻 Join us as we deliver unto you, dear listener, a fresh batch of firsthand encounters with the truly bizarre. We begin with a balmy night-walk on a dark Florida road and a terrifying encounter with a towering, tendril-covered entity beneath a bridge!

Then we hike over to California’s Sunol Regional Wilderness, where a drifting, smoke-like being with glowing eyes crosses a lonely road, and seems to curse it’s onlookers. What forces are at play?

Are we dealing with thin places, electromagnetic anomalies, interdimensional “friction”, and what is the spirit travel connection to highways and waterways? We’ll break it down in the Hole for ya! Also... Daytime Hatman, Hooved Tavern Patrons and Generational Bigfoot!
