Paranormal Directive 13

The Vatican has denied it ever existed. A respected Benedictine monk claimed otherwise. In 1972, Father Pellegrino Ernetti shocked the world when he revealed the existence of the Chronovisor. A machine he said could recover images and sounds from the past. According to Ernetti, it wasn't science fiction. He claimed it had already been used to witness Napoleon, hear Cicero speak, recover a lost Rom...

A fire-breathing beast with glowing green eyes. A monster hunt that ends with dynamite. A live creature displayed to thousands of paying visitors. And a story so convincing that the Smithsonian reportedly sent scientists to investigate. This week on Paranormal Directive 13 , we're exploring one of the strangest cryptid stories in American history: the legend of the Hodag. Was it nothing more than...

On October 11, 1973, two shipyard workers walked into a Mississippi sheriff's office with an unbelievable story.

One lonely road. Ninety years of sightings. And a creature witnesses insist was neither man nor wolf. In the rural farm country outside Elkhorn, Wisconsin, a quiet stretch of pavement known as Bray Road became the center of one of America's strangest cryptid mysteries. For decades, witnesses reported encounters with a massive wolf-like creature that could stand upright like a human, run on all fou...

Previously on Paranormal Directive 13... A working-class family in West Pittston, Pennsylvania claimed their home became the center of a years-long nightmare. Strange odors, violent attacks, shadow figures, unexplained voices, and a growing sense that something inside the house wanted them gone. By the end of Part 1, the Smurls had exhausted every normal explanation and turned to the Catholic Chur...

For more than a decade, the Smurl family claimed something was living inside their home at 330 Chase Street in West Pittston, Pennsylvania. What began as strange noises, unexplained odors, and objects moving on their own slowly escalated into something far more disturbing. Beds shook in the middle of the night. Shadow figures appeared in darkened rooms. A family dog was allegedly attacked. And the...

The finale of The Roswell Dossier begins where every official story ends: with a balloon disappearing into a New Mexico sky at dawn. Project Mogul was supposed to close the case for good. A secret Cold War surveillance program, a string of weather balloons, a confused rancher, and seventy years of mythology built on a misunderstanding. And for a while, it almost holds together. Then the cracks sta...

Thirty-one years after the Roswell crash disappeared from public conversation, the witnesses started talking. In Part Two of The Roswell Dossier, Paranormal Directive 13 dives into the darkest and most controversial layer of the Roswell mystery: the bodies, the cover-up allegations, Majestic 12, and the possibility that the U.S. government didn't just suppress the UFO story… but actively manipulat...

In Part One of this...

Tonight we're re-opening the vault. Complete with new details, new stories, and a couple friends to help us out. Something appeared in Van Meter, Iowa in 1903. At first, it was just a light. A strange, focused beam moving across rooftops in the middle of the night. Then came the sightings. A massive winged creature. Eight feet tall. A horn on its head that emitted a blinding white light. People di...

Something happened in 1917 that should not exist in any historical record. In Munich, a woman named Maria Orsic allegedly entered a trance and began writing in a language no one could identify. Not German. Not Latin. Not anything known at the time. When she came out of it, she claimed the message did not come from her mind. It came from somewhere else. Somewhere 65 light years away. And it was not...

What if the legends were never myths? In 1977, a boy in Lawndale, Illinois was lifted into the air by something massive. Witnesses described a black bird with a wingspan so large it shouldn’t exist.

And across Pennsylvania, Texas, and beyond, sightings of enormous winged beings continue to this d...

There’s a farmhouse on a windswept hill on the Isle of Man where, in 1931, a family claimed something moved into their walls. At first, it sounded like an animal. Scratching. Rustling. The kind of thing you’d ignore. Until it started mimicking voices. Then singing. Then speaking… in full sentences. It called itself Gef. And according to the Irving family, this wasn’t just some strange creature hid...

Imagine finding a 600-year-old book… written in a language that doesn’t exist. No translation. No key. No mistakes. Just page after page of flawless writing that behaves like a real human language… but isn’t. This is the story of the Voynich Manuscript, one of the most studied, most analyzed, and most frustrating mysteries in human history. A book so strange that even professional cryptographers,...

What if everything you think you know about leprechauns… is wrong? Forget the cartoons. Forget the green hats and cereal mascots.

For more than twenty years, the United States government funded a classified program that attempted to use psychic abilities for intelligence gathering. It was called Project Stargate. Beginning in the early 1970s at the height of the Cold War, the CIA and U.S. Army quietly invested millions of dollars into researching remote viewing. The alleged ability to perceive distant locations using only th...

In the year 2000, a user calling himself John Titor appeared on obscure internet forums claiming to be a soldier from the year 2036. He didn’t just tell stories. He provided schematics. He explained black hole physics. He described a coming American civil war, a Russian nuclear strike in 2015, and a fractured nation rebuilding from the ashes. Most dismissed him as a hoax. Until one detail, involvi...

For years, people have been asking the same question: What really happens when the powerful believe they’re untouchable? Long before modern scandals and “lists” dominated headlines, Britain’s elite were already gathering in secret. Beneath a quiet English hillside, a quarter-mile of tunnels carved into chalk became the private playground of politicians, aristocrats, and men who believed morality w...

On August 5th, 1993, a group of seven experienced hikers set out across a high ridge in the Khamar-Daban mountains of southern Siberia. They were trained. They were prepared.

For more than a century, something strange has been reported in the woods of New Hampshire. Witnesses describe a small, dark, upright creature fast, aggressive, and disturbingly familiar.

In this episode, I’m guest-spotting with the guys from Weirder After Dark to dig...
