Who, or what, is Jason Voorhees? Depending on who you ask, he's a revenant, a deformed man, or even a deadite from "Evil Dead". The truth is a little more complicated...

The Dyatlov Pass incident bears all the perfect pieces of a mystery. Inexplicable injuries, questionable decision making, and a lack of government transparency or accountability, coupled with ancient superstitions, weave together in such a way that no one explanation truly fits all of the strangeness that occurred. We brought  @TheMissingEnigma  on to discuss. Welcome back to The Lore Lodge... Sub...

There are native tales of red headed giants who once lived (and terrorized the natives of ) the Humboldt Lake area. It sounds fantastical, but could it be true? Welcome back to The Lore Lodge...

The Aidans discuss what they've learned over the years by doing deep dives into a variety of different conspiracies. Are the real stories accurate to what most people tell online?

Dyatlov Pass is one of the most famous mysteries of the 20th century, and for good reason. Nine hikers, most of them in their early 20's, all succumb to the elements in the Urals, most with inexplicable injuries, and nobody could agree on a cause. That is, until 2020, when the Russian government finally came forward with an explanation: an avalanche. But is that quite enough to explain it all? Wel...

The Missing Enigma makes a surprise appearance to join The Lore Lodge in discussing a variety of topics. Skinwalker Ranch is not just known for Skinwalkers or ranching, it's also a hotbed of alleged UFO sightings and other paranormal, sci-fi-esque nonsense. So, is any of it real?

In Episode 3 of Graham Hancock's Ancient Apocalypse series, the author and investigator heads to Malta to explore what he believes may be traces of an ancient civilization, one we typically refer to as "Atlantis". By calculating the movements of stars, dating archaic human teeth, and referencing island folklore, Graham makes a persuasive argument for a much old date of settlement in Malta than is...

Sometimes, a Missing 411 case is unsolvable because the subject has passed on. Sometimes they appear right where you left them, just without any memories. Others still, it seems as though something kidnapped them. This story is different. In 1978, Steven Kubacki wandered onto the ice of Lake Michigan for some two hundred yards, vanished for 14 months, and then showed up with puzzling clues, total...

If you were into creepypastas, you know Slenderman. The unsettling, suit clad demon came into being in 2009 as a result of a photoshop competition on Something Awful, but he didn't stay a powerless horror story for very long. The mythos expanded beyond what the creators ever could have intended, with an entire world coming about that almost looks like a warped version of Foster's Home For Imaginar...

The United States and Canada have a complicated history when it comes to the relationships between the Indigenous and Settler communities. Enemies and alliances, trade and conflict, trust and betrayal; all have transpired between the various factions, often more than once. Though we've left the days of open conflict far behind, stories like that of Amber Tuccaro are all too common. Welcome back to...

We've been covering conspiracies for a bit now, but none have resulted in quite so much drama as "Tartaria." Thing is, while the algorithm loves drama, we don't. So tonight, our guest,  @xirtus  , is here to take part in a discussion about the concept of Tartaria, with the end goal of everyone coming away with a better understanding of the beliefs, evidence, and arguments for both sides. Welcome b...

There have been some comments on our Tartaria video since it came out, as  @MindUnveiled  has made a response video. I decided to take a half an hour or so out of my Sunday to clarify some things about that video.

What if someone told you that the Catholic Church was responsible for a major rewriting of history, which edited out the existence of a massive, advanced empire known as Tartaria? Would you be shocked? You probably would. But that's exactly what adherents of the "Tartarian Truth" movement claim.

There's a lot of people out there claiming that humanity was once far more advanced than we ever thought. Surely you've heard of Ancient Aliens, but that's not the only theory out there. From the crustal displacement theorists such as Charles Hapgood to the Ancient Apocalypse narrative of Graham Hancock, people are fascinated by the possibility of a lost chapter of human history. So what is the ev...

In the year 2000, a controversial journalist (whose name we can't even mention on YouTube) infiltrated the secretive wilderness retreat known as the Bohemian Grove. Inside, he claims to have witnessed a pagan ritual involving sacrifices to the ancient Ammonite deity Moloch, as well as a complicated plot to create a New World Order. Is that truly what's going on here? Or is this just another nonsen...

The very first video we ever made surrounded the Missing 411 phenomenon, as made famous by David Paulides. In the ensuing two years, we've both defended and chastised the work of the former detective. At our core, however, is a firm belief that David's work has played an important role in bringing missing persons cases to a broader audience, who in turn can affect real change in law enforcement pr...

We've all seen vampires, most of us on the screen, the unlucky ones maybe not so much...but what are they? Where did this ubiquitously recognized monster come from? The vampire as we know it seems so distinct and concrete, a blood sucking, anti-sun, garlic avoidant apex predator. But it wasn't always like that. In fact, not so long ago, the "vampire" of Western cinema and literature simply didn't...

The Illuminati is possibly the best known conspiracy theory out there. But what are they? A shadowy group of elites? The Freemasons? What are their goals, and how have their methods been used by others throughout history to manipulate people to terrible ends?

In 2014, James McGrogan and three friends went hiking just north of Vail, Colorado. Sometime in the morning of March 14th, he separated from his friends. He was never seen alive again, and the location of his body, once found, defies reason.
