Think of a local business in your area. Maybe it's a mom and pop shop, a local restaurant, a place that provides useful services. What comes to mind? I personally think of friendly service, a price that is a little higher but worth it since it is local, and a job well done. Now what if in that business, something more sinister was going on? Right in your town, right under your nose. Would you ever...

Welcome to the New Age. The age of holistic healing and crystal therapy. You may have heard of this practice from your eccentric aunt, and wrote it off as modern pseudoscience. While that may be true, the belief that certain stones hold certain beneficial properties has been around for thousands of years, from ancient Greece to the Middle ages. So why stones? Why crystals specifically? I will make...

When you lay in bed at night, unable to sleep and staring up at the ceiling. They just might be watching you. You look into the darkest corner of the room and all you see is shadow. As you focus on it, it almost looks like that deep blackness is in the shape of a person. You chuckle to yourself, knowing that your eyes are just playing tricks on you in the dark… but then... that shadow moves. Many...

The line between man and beast has always been disturbingly thin. But this has always been a metaphorical comparison, as we humans like to think ourselves above the savagery and primal mind of the animal. Folklore however, tells us tales of man-beasts and shapeshifters, that blur this line even further. It tells us stories of people who can turn into beasts, and can only satisfy their bloodlust by...

We have all desired something; fame, wealth, love, property, power - but how far would you go to get it? You might sacrifice your time, your money, your possession, or even your health to obtain the object of your desire. But would you give even more? Would you sell... your soul? Tonight, we make a deal with the devil on this bluesy episode of Snipe Hunt.  Thanks to Mike Sobel for his music on thi...

The tulpa is a term that has only become mainstream online extremely recently. It is a concept, and a creature that has its roots in the ancient beliefs of Buddhism and Hinduism, and has been influenced by many cultures. Many think of it as purely paranormal, or even a demonic creature. But how accurate is that description? What is the tulpa really? The answer may surprise you. Find out tonight on...

Folklore is an attempt by humans to explain what we don’t understand. Conspiracy theories then, might be best described as modern folklore; and like folklore, there may be some truth to the claims. Denver International Airport in Colorado has been the target of conspiracy theories even before its opening in 1995. But why does this airport in particular have so many claims surrounding it? What secr...

Few of us might have actually had a Tarot card reading, but this practice is so ingrained in the zeitgeist of the western world, that most of us at least know the gist of it. A simple reading of a specialized deck of cards might give us insight into our past, present, or future. But what are the details of this strange practice? Where did it come from? Does it work? Or is it all just bologna? Let’...

We would like to speak with the dead. Let’s begin the session. Ouija Boards are something most of us are fairly familiar with. We have seen them in movies and TV shows, read about them in books and news articles, and have been warned against their use from our parents. But does Ouija deserve this reputation. After all, it’s just a game…. Isn’t it? Let’s find out on this patented episode of Snipe H...

In the archipelago of the Philippines, various horrors stalk the jungles and mountains in the night. These are grotesque creatures, always searching for human victims to devour.

Bigfoot, Nessie, and the Chupacabra, are probably the most famous cryptids in existence. This is due in part to the possibility that these creatures might be real, even despite a lack of scientific evidence. This is what makes them compelling, so cryptids that have been proven hoaxes do not get the same limelight, despite the entertainment value. We fix that today on this flimflam episode of Snipe...

One thing that unites the human race is the love of music. Despite many theories, the reason why music causes a rush of dopamine in our brains is ultimately unknown to science. Dance is the physical expression of the emotions that music causes within us. We can all agree that dance is a happy thing. But what happens if you can’t stop? What if you danced yourself… to death? Tonight we cover the Dan...

Dolls. While some people look at these figures, they see nothing but cute children’s toys. But others see creepy human replicas. Dolls have long had a dual nature throughout history as being used both as toys, and as tools in magical rituals. Perhaps it is this history that has contributed to the belief that some of these dolls… are haunted. Join us tonight as we discuss these eerie effigies on th...

Sleep, the activity where we voluntarily trade our consciousness for dreams. It is a time for rest and rejuvenation; preparing ourselves for the tasks of the upcoming day. But as we lie there, unconscious in the dark, we are at our most vulnerable. Usually, when nightmares sneak into our heads while we sleep, we can wake up and shrug it off. But what if this nightmare continued into your waking li...

You wake up out of a deep sleep, wondering who is knocking at your front door so late at night Concerned, you open the door to two children. One of the children immediately demands “Let us in”. A chill runs down your spine. Something seems off, you just don’t know what. “Let us in” the kid says one more time, angry this time.

Large cats have been sighted prowling in the wilds. This itself is not surprising, what is however, is the location.

Tonight, we discuss Alien Big Cats on this mysterious minisode of Snipe Hunt. Facebook: facebook.com/snipehuntp...

Nearly every culture has its own dragon legend; they are a universal archetype that pervade every mythology. Humans have been fascinated with dragons since their conception.
