As The Crow Flies

We come in peace as we traverse the world (wide web) looking for more signs of life beyond Earth, and evidence of their interactions with us mere mortals! Follow us to a few remote locations this week as we ponder what could be hidden right in plain sight, and also what the fluff is up with kangaroos??

Join us as Desirae shares some background behind the book 'Alien Interview' and the otherworldly encounter that changed the trajectory of Matilda...

Follow us as we venture into the Australian Outback with today's episode on the Yowie. If you follow us on Facebook, you'll see that we lost video as a result of an app crash, so this week's episode is audio only. Thanks for sticking with us, as always!

Howdy folks! We're back in Texas exploring the aptly named Dead Man's Hole in Austin. In our country's second largest state, it's no wonder that there are plenty of haunts to discover off the beaten path.

This week, Desirae takes us through Franconia Notch in New Hampshire to learn about Betty & Barney Hill, and their out-of-this-world encounter from September 1961! We can't say exactly how we would react in a situation like this, but we have a feeling few could live up to the calm curiosity that Betty showed that night and in the weeks that followed.

Who are we? Why are we here?? You've made it this far so we figure it's only fair that we share a little more about ourselves and what led us to become the spoopy sisters that we are today.

Our continued examination of the Dyatlov Pass incident gives us a much closer look at each hiker's unique injuries and the various states that they were found in along the slopes of Kholat Syakhl. Every detail paints a better picture of the scene, but leaves us more puzzled than ever about why this group abandoned the safety of their tent for the deadly Russian snowscape around them.
