Within The Mist

Have you ever walked alone through dark woods and felt something watching you?  In the rainy forests of the Pacific Northwest the lumberjacks knew that feeling well. They told stories of a beast larger than any bear, covered in tight black skin that shone like wet rubber. Bullets struck that hide and bounced straight back.  They called it the Gumberoo. Join Gary & GoldieAnn toda...

Traveling into southwest Arkansas, to a quiet town called Fouke, is a world of thick woods that swallow the sunlight, muddy creeks that twist like dark ribbons and hot summer nights when the air hangs heavy with humidity and every shadow seems to move. For more than a hundred years, people in these bottoms have whispered about something tall and hairy that walks on two legs. Something with ey...

There is a special grand old house in St. Louis, Missouri that is different from the others. The Lemp Mansion looks beautiful from the outside, but inside, tragedy left deep marks.  A powerful brewing family rose high in the city’s society… then fell hard. Four family members lost their lives through violence. Three of them died inside these walls.  Guests still feel cold spots...

A full moon hangs over the dark forests of Germany. A candle at an old stone shrine in the middle of a forgotten forest goes out.  That same night, alarms scream at an American air base. Soldiers see a huge wolf-like beast standing on two legs just as it jumps a tall fence and vanishes into the trees. Is it just a story? Or did a curse from 1812 wake up again? Join Gary & GoldieAnn a...

You’re driving home alone on a lonely mountain road. The headlights cut through the black night.  Suddenly something hunched on the asphalt rises up… spreads huge dark wings… and flies right beside your car. Red eyes stare through the window. You floor the gas. It stays with you. You cannot escape. Old legends whispered about a tall figure in a black cape that stood at the horizon at nig...

In the heart of historic Mobile, Alabama, a city of Southern charm, there is the Fort Conde Inn.  It is Mobile’s second-oldest home. Built on ground once guarded by a mighty French fort. A place that welcomed families... until war and deadly epidemics turned its rooms into a house of misery. This is where the supernatural begins after dark. Scratch-scratch near the floorboards... li...

He was flying alone at night over a dark, endless sea. A small plane was all he had.  Then... something appears above him. It wasn't a plane. It hovered in the sky above him... watching. Then he was gone. On October 21, 1978, a young pilot faced a nightmare over Bass Strait, Australia. His desperate radio calls still chill listeners today and baffles researchers attempting to find any sign of...

On a moonlit dirt road in rural Florida, the summer air is hot and humid.  Suddenly, you hear mumbling from the black water of a cypress pond. Something huge moves through the gator-infested waters without a splash... no legs visible.  Then it stands. Tall. Hairy. Carrying a flickering lantern through the trees.  Is it a man? A monster? Or Florida's own nightmare from the swamp...

Hiking deep in the misty forests of the Northeast can be a wonderful way to commune with nature... until the ground shakes under heavy footsteps.  Not a bear. Not a man. Something taller than you, stronger than you, with skin like stone and a hunger for human flesh.  This isn't any friendly Bigfoot story.  Today, we dive into the terrifying true tale of the Genoskwa—the Stone G...

A towering stone mansion on a quiet Cleveland street, its turrets piercing the night sky. Built for prosperity, it became a monument to grief. Doors slam without a soul in sight. Footsteps echo down empty halls. A woman in black weeps in the shadows, and the cries of children who never grew old pierce the silence. This is Franklin Castle—Ohio's most infamous haunted house. Tonight, Gary & Gold...

On a silent summer night in 1977, a massive radio telescope in Ohio scans the stars, listening for the impossible. Then, out of the cosmic static, something arrives. A signal so strong, so precise, so wrong that it stops a scientist in his tracks. He grabs a red pen, circles the data, and scrawls one word: 'Wow!' Was this mankind’s first contact with alien intelligence or the universe playing...

Driving alone on a deserted New Mexico road after midnight, the headlights cut through the darkness, but something steps into the beam ahead. At first, it looks like a shifting black lump... writhing, growing, shrinking. Then it becomes her—a woman at the crossroads.  You swerve. Your heart hammers. And in that moment, you know: someone close to you is about to die. Join Gary &...

Deep in the heart of the Brazilian Amazon, the trees swallow the sunlight, and every shadow seems alive... and something ancient stirs. A creature so foul-smelling it turns the air to poison. So powerful it uproots trees with a single swipe. So terrifying that hardened hunters flee at its roar. Is it mere legend... or a survivor from the Ice Age, still walking among us?  Today, join...

Up a dark mountain road at dusk, there is snow covering the evergreens. Headlights cut through the fog on the long and lonely road. Then... you see it: a cattle guard rattling under your tires.  Drivers ahead of you suddenly fling open their car doors – just for a second – before speeding on.  They’re not crazy. They’re paying tribute because something lives under that grate on...

Drifting through the misty cypress trees of Caddo Lake, Louisiana, at dusk. The water is still... too still. Then something massive breaks the surface – dark, 18 to 20 feet long, wide as a car top, gliding silently like a living shadow. Fishermen swear it wasn't a boat.  In the spring of 1969, this wasn't a campfire story. It was front-page news in the Shreveport Times.  Locals name...

It’s 1970 and Japan is still rebuilding from the scars of war. Deep in the misty Chugoku Mountains of Hiroshima Prefecture, on a lonely road hugging the edge of Mount Hiba, a truck driver is heading home under a blood-red sunset. His headlights cut through the fog… and something steps out.  This is no bear nor is it a man but rather a hulking, ape-like shadow – five feet tall, covered in...

A sweltering Manila jail cell in 1953 is home to a teenage girl alone on a concrete floor. Suddenly she screams—a raw, animal sound that echoes off the walls.  Fresh, human bite marks rip open on her neck and hands… but no one is touching her.  Doctors stand inches away, holding her arms down, and watch the teeth impressions appear in real time. Blood wells under the skin. The...

A bright May afternoon in 1973 on the peaceful Isle of Wight. Two seven-year-old kids are playing by a quiet stream near Lake Common in Sandown of Wight, England. Then… a sound disturbs the peaceful setting. Not a bird. Not a car. A high, unearthly wailing… like an ambulance.  They follow it across an old footbridge… and what emerges from the reeds isn’t a person. It’s something tha...

The water is glass-still on the shore of Kentucky’s deepest lake at dawn. … until something breaks the surface. You would expect it to be a fish leaping for an insect breakfast, yet it's not. A blunt, pig-like snout rises, followed by a long, powerful eel body ending in a tail that curls like a whip. It moves faster than any boat you’ve ever seen. And it’s been doing this for nearly a century...

Deep in the Georgia woods, the August heat is thick as tar, the Chattahoochee River babbles secrets just beyond your tent. Your dog starts screaming—not barking, screaming—like something from hell is dragging it away.  You grab your pistol, step into the dark… and towering over you is a silhouette with glowing eyes that don’t flinch when you empty your clip into its chest. It walks uprig...

It’s past midnight on a fog-choked lane just south of Leeds. The last horse cart has rattled away. You’re alone, boots squelching in the mud. Then you hear it: pit-pat… pit-pat… Soft. Deliberate. Right behind your shoulder.  You whirl. Nothing. The padding sounds circle you, stalking you. A shape melts out of the hedge – eyes like blazing saucers, black shaggy bulk the size of...

It’s the heart of Ohio's forgotten wilderness, where the trees whisper secrets of the dead, and the shadows hide unseen eyes watching your every move. Deep in Zaleski State Forest lies a crumbling relic of a ghost town swallowed by time.  Legends speak of spectral lanterns swinging in the dark, tragic souls trapped forever in the shadows of a train tunnel that may lead to more than you t...

It’s the misty dawn of the 20th century in the remote highlands of Papua New Guinea. A British explorer’s team pushes into uncharted territory, chasing rumors of something massive lurking in the grass. Then, one terrified porter spots it: not a pig, but a hulking, long-snouted beast that moves with unnatural grace, vanishing into the underbrush as gunshots ring out. Tracks the size of dinner plate...

It’s October 17, 1973 — a night that would change one man’s life forever, and put the tiny Alabama town of Falkville on the map of America’s strangest unexplained encounters. A frantic call about a UFO landing sent the local police chief into dark fields under a hungry moon. What he saw wasn’t a craft… but something else: a humanoid figure, metallic and glowing, standing in the gravel road like a...

Tracing back to 19th-century eyewitnesses, accounts describe a massive, serpent-like creature seen in the waters of New England’s longest river. The most famous report occurred in 1886 near Middletown, Connecticut, when two men claimed their boat was struck by an enormous animal that raised a long neck and dark head above the surface. Additional sightings followed in later years along the river in...
