-In this episode, we’re finally tackling the Devil’s Tramping Ground. One of North Carolina’s most hyped and heavily mythologized paranormal spots. We reserved the site to spend the night during the Lion’s Gate portal, expecting to find the dark, portal-driven energy everyone talks about. Instead, the land had a completely different story to tell. We break down what actually happened out there: the history of the Dowd family land, the local revolutionary war ties, and how early settler account...

For years you’ve heard us talk about Mike and Christie from The Unknown Paranormal. We’ve had them on countless episodes and worked side by side virtually on cases. Over the years, we always hoped that one day we could finally meet up and investigate together in person. Well, that day…or rather, those 5 days…came this August, and it was nothing short of amazing. On day 2, we decided to crowd into a hotel room and record a bonus podcast about everything we were experiencing. We brought them...

For Season 6 of Hidden in the Shadows, we are merging the worlds of the paranormal and technology.

What if we are living in a simulation? Over the years, the conversation has only grown, bringing forward fascinating new theories that bridge the gap between hard code and high strangeness...

Our thesis is simple: the role of the Seer didn’t disappear with mythology. It evolved, it survived, and it shows up in ways most people never expect. This episode...

This episode gets on the interesting side of things. For a few years now, we’ve talked heavily about abilities and how we’ve turned them into a way to help people dealing with darker‑natured supernatural experiences. But at the center of all of it, there has always been one constant: Isaac’s ring. In this episode, we finally break it all down.

What actually allows us to see the paranormal? In this episode, Megan and Isaac dive into the biology of sight.

In this mind‑bending episode, we explore the powerful connection between the human nervous system, psychic perception, and paranormal phenomena.
