Campfire Adventures

In Arizona there in an area known as the Mogollon Rim, this location is home to a cryptid that has been terrorizing locals for over 100 years. This creature is so popular that its tale has been published in The Arizona Republic Newspaper and even shared around the campfire's of many Boy Scout troops. With all these accounts being shared, the public eventually dubbed this cryptid the Mogollon Monst...

In Utah there is a state park known as Escalante Petrified Forest. Many people from all over the world come to visit this state park to catch a glimpse of the very alluring petrified wood found in the park. Now some of these people will notice that there are signs in place warning visitors to refrain from taking these fossils home with them. And you should count yourself lucky if you heed this war...

Welcome to the newest episode of Campfire Adventures! I'd like to start by saying the topics discussed in this episode are a little heavy. They involve the topics of children, life and death. So as a disclaimer if you feel like these topics are too strong then there is no harm in skipping this week and maybe revisiting another episode in our catalog. However the ending has a twist and we will talk...

How many of you out there actually believe in these supernatural stories we cover on this podcast? Well today's episode is one that I've believed in ever since I was a kid and that's all thanks to the Scooby Doo movie Alien Invaders! If you've seen the movie then maybe you know who this week's episode is about, but if not this episode is about the famous Jackalope! A rabbit hybrid with antlers on...

When you take a trip to the mountains what do you expect to see? Maybe some trees, a squirrel or two and if you're lucky even some elk! But if you find yourself exploring the Rocky Mountains of Colorado be cautious because there is a cryptid that lives on the mountain tops just waiting for an unsuspecting victim to pass by. Legend says there is a gigantic whale-like creature with a mouth of an ang...

There is a witch out there that is able to conjure some of the darkest magic around. They started off with the best of intentions and used magic to help the public, but somehow the lure of having magic grew too strong. In order to obtain more power they must be willing to make a sacrifice to prove their willingness to do anything. Alone these witches might not be intimidating, but what if I told y...

I feel like there is a mystery surrounding the state of Oklahoma. Like out of all the states this one might be the one I know the least about and maybe you might feel the same way. But don't worry because we are going to fix that with the newest episode of Campfire Adventures, it's a twofer! So whether it's while you're enjoying the lakes around the state or taking some time to enjoy the sand dune...

In Kansas there is a cryptid that has been known to the locals since the 1950's. You wouldn't believe it, but this monster is a 15ft long worm that calls the largest lake in Kansas home. With only three sightings people have struggled to try and prove that this creature is not just a myth. Newspapers started to fly off the shelf when the stories of the now dubbed Sinkhole Sam started to be printed...

We recorded a special episode to celebrate Campfire Adventures first birthday. It was the first time since our road trip that we sat around the original firepit and shared a story with the friends and family that have supported our podcast. For me the perfect story for this night had to be connected to Ireland because our bday is on St Patrick's Day and also have a connection to our first episode...

In Missouri there is a mountain range that is surrounded by lakes and rivers, it's known as the Ozarks. Every year locals and tourists alike travel to hike, boat and just kick back and enjoy the scenery made popular by Netflix's famous show of the same name (Ozarks.) But what some people don't know is that there is a cryptid that calls the land home and because it doesn't stray too far from the mo...

There is a town in Arkansas called Fouke, it currently has a population of about 850 people so if something ever happened it wouldn't take long for word to spread around. Well in the early 1900's reports of a Wildman living in the forest surrounding the town started to make its way throughout the town. As the years passed more and more sightings were reported until finally an incident in 1971 caug...

In 1969 reports of an unknown creature lurking in the forest around Greer Island in Fort Worth, TX filled headlines. People would come to the island/lake to enjoy the view and relax during their leisure time. However, during the year of 1969 the public started to fear the story of a 7ft tall bigfoot/goat hybrid creature were true. Some people claimed that this Lake Worth Monster jumped on cars, ot...

Who doesn't enjoy going to a bed and breakfast, I mean the name alone says they have everything you could want, or does it? Well if you're like me then you like to have your eggs served with a side of paranormal activity (ok yes and with the blankets readily available to protect you.) Nonetheless, where would one find a place like that? Well I know of a place in Louisiana that checks all these box...

In 1973 an event would take place in Jackson County, Mississippi that would forever live in infamy. Charles Hickson and Calvin Parker decided to take a fishing trip to Pascagoula River and spend the whole day trying to reel in the biggest fish. Day slowly faded into night and the two saw a light slowly approaching them and thought it must be the sheriff. To their surprise it turned into an U niden...

Who misses hearing about aquatic cryptids? Ok well that's a relief because I thought it might have just been me, but we have a new one for you all this week. In Georgia there lives an aquatic cryptid known as the Altamaha-ha a.k.a. Altie. It has called the Altamaha River and the waterways around it home since the 1800's. Although this creature may have been seen multiple times, actual proof of its...

Have any of you out there ever done one of those genealogy tests? You know the ones that tell you your family history and if you have greatness running through your veins. Well if today's cryptid does this it would find out it is related to the one and only Bigfoot. Yeah I know the Bigfoot lineage stretches all across the United States, hell I might get tested just to see if by chance he's my cous...

Let's say you come face to face with a cryptid and live to tell the tale, do you tell someone? I know the first thing you're thinking, I bet if I tell someone they are going to call me crazy, but what happens if they don't? On today's episode of Campfire Adventures we are introduced to a kid named Christopher Davis and on a super early drive he had some car trouble and had to pull over next to a w...

Who has a pet out there? If you answered yes then wouldn't you agree there isn't anything you wouldn't do to protect them? Well picture it, it's the 1950's, the state is North Carolina and we're in a town named Bladenboro. There's a beast that roams the town looking for unguarded pets. It's hoping to catch them and call them dinner for the evening. Yeah I know, this cryptid is almost automatically...

We're knocking out all these road trip episodes pretty quickly, like we only have 18 more episodes left to release! This one though is a pretty special one for us. We almost recorded this episode early on in our podcast life for my niece, but I'm glad we saved it and was able to do this on our trip. In this episode we dabble in true crime and discuss two different theories of how this legend came...

To one of our favorite artists here is your credit. Thank you for the best post cards out there!

I wanted to surprise you all with a bonus episode this holiday season. I know we are still working through all our road trip episodes, but it's the holidays so I figured an extra episode wouldn't hurt anyone. Also did you know that even the holidays can't escape being associated with cryptids? Well there is a day that many know as St Nicholas Day, it usually falls on December 6th and it's a day wh...

This week's cryptid is pretty unique, either we are recording an episode on another type of boogeyman or we are learning about a creature who was created in a lab and broke out into the forests of Maryland. For year the locals have heard legend of a half man and half goat creature who has been terrorizing Maryland's people and their pets. Known as the Goatman, he is said to hunt for human flesh wh...

We've reached an episode I've been waiting to do since we started this podcast. I know we cover stories of cryptids that scare and terrorize towns and even haunted chairs that are looking for souls, but what about a cryptid that's just trying to warn people who might be in danger? This weeks episode is about the one and only Mothman of West Virginia. He was only seen for a handful of times through...

Alright I think this might be a first for our podcast. We've talked about the classic monsters and cryptids, but this time we are talking about a phantom light! On a dark night off the coast of Delaware it's said that you can see a light helping guide people to the shore. However, if for some reason you follow this beacon of hope you might be in for rocky landing! Take a listen to this week's epis...
