The What Cast

That's right! on with the weird stuff. This week, we are going to take a look at 2 encounters with inhumanoids both had by the same person. The first she called a vampire but after hearing what this thing looked like, you, like us, may have other ideas of what it could have been. The second encounter left no question.  After that, Mike keeps us in the loop with all the UFO/UAP stuff. There has bee...

Not weird enough. Sky spitter? Even stranger. And the strangest thing is this creature was seen more than once, by the same person.    You wana get weird. We'll show you weird.

We've covered our fair share of abduction experiences over the years.  Everything from hideous reptoids, to gray aliens with the body of a human woman has been reported as being responsible for these late night visitations.  We have also covered the theory that there may be a human presence behind the abduction mysteries.    Today, we delve into an interesting case that may fit into both categorie...

Most of us have likely been to a local fair or carnival and viewed the "freaks" and oddities on display.  Most of these are very obvious fakes, but occasionally you come across one that really makes your mind wander and thing "What if this was real?"   Today, we decided to tackle some of the most famous of the fake critters out there.  Strap in while we discuss the Fiji mermaid and Dave Coulier-er...

You ever sit there, watching your favorite Disney movie and wonder why the Hell there weren't more talking/singing animals in the real world?   Well first off, put down that pipe.  Secondly, me too.  Thirdly…I've lost the point I was trying to make.   Anyway.   This episode is about a special breed of interdimensional, talking, child-stealing bear.  I really don't think more needs to be said about...

From legends, to modern ghost stories and movies, the banshee has become a household name.  Is she a harbinger of death or the actual cause? Maybe she is just super empathetic and mourns all death?    This week we discussed the classic legend as well as a new variant in the new world, The Banshee of the Bad Lands, and she brought a friend!    Doc: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=njhoWE9XBNY   Dese...

We've talked about many different kinds of creeps and spooks that haunt the unsuspecting sleeper.  There have been many episodes featuring the Old Hag, Shadow People, and the dreaded Hat Man.  This week, we take a look at the absolute worst nighttime visitor, the Incubus/Succubus.  Could these sex demons be the actual beings behind sleep paralysis?  Are they responsible for shadow people invading...

We have talked about our fair share of cryptids over the years, on this show.  Some of the best stories seem to be about strange animals, whether they are mutants or giants or chimeras.  This week, we decided to take a look at some legendary giant turtles.  Some are reports from sailor, while others have left a permanent mark the folklore of an area.   Join us as we jump upon the moss-covered back...

The Moai of Easter Island are well know icons among ancient relics. While many speculate on how they were created and moved, many mysteries remain.     This week, we look into the more outlandish theories surrounding the mythical Moai!   http://www.thewhatcast.com/ Tee Spring: https://the-what-cast-stuff-shop.creator-spring.com/ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/TheWhatCast

The name "Mothman" instantly brings to mind the town of Point Pleasant, John Keel, and to many, Richard Greer.  The most famous events involving the Mothman are forever linked to the events in Point Pleasant, WV.  For many, the story died with the collapse of the Silver Bridge.   What if that wasn't the end?   Recently, there have been a number of Mothman sightings around the area of the O'Hare ai...

In modern times, the image of the dragon is reserved for big budget movies and art on the covers of fantasy novels.  In times past, however, things were much different. This week we dive into some of the legendary tales from the past that depict dragons and their interactions with humans.  Sometimes we get cautionary tales, others times we get stories of a bad ass warrior who is sent to save the l...

You guys surely must remember Percy Fawcett, the bad ass explorer that mapped parts of South America, and reported back on monstrous animals and an alleged city of gold.    In a similar vein, we are going to cover a story that was reported by famed adventurer and big game hunter Edgar Beecher Bronson.  Mr. Bronson related a tale told to him by his fellow hunter, John Alfred Jordan, about an unknow...

There are many places around the world that linked with the underworld. NO not crime bosses and Bigfoot porn underworld. We're talking about the Land Of The Dead. Home of The Dark Lord. Hell. Join us as we take a look into the timeless legend of The Barhout Well. A place so evil, it is said to be the most foul place on earth. A prison for demons.  This episode was brought to you by Dilago. Thanks...

Let's face it. The government makes everything they release difficult to read, follow and even comprehend. Well no more. On June 25th, The Office Of The Director Of National Intelligence released the Preliminary Assessment Report on Unidentified Aerial Phenomena and we are not going to let it just pass by.  Now you can join two dumbasses as we read the entire report in it's entirety. To eliminate...

By now, I'd imagine everyone is familiar with the reptilian conspiracy.  You know the one.  Reptilian aliens are living amongst us, disguised as politicians and other people that wield great power and influence in order to subjugate the human race and eat our babies.  This episode isn't exactly about that, but it also kind of is.   You see, fair listener, this week we reviewed a documentary that w...

This week we are all packing up our covered wagons and headed to Arizona where we will learn about the legend of the Dutchman's lost mine.  Spawning from this legend, we will discuss the mysterious deaths in the Superstition Mountains, where this mine is alleged to exist.  Hikers and treasure hunters alike of gone missing or have been found dead under mysterious circumstances.  Just who, or what i...

Ladies and gentlemen. It's that time again. Time to visit Atlantis once again. So don your scuba gear and let's get ready to-   Oh. Nevermind. Apparently we are heading to the desert.    "But I thought the Ocean swallowed Atlantis!", you say.   Well, it did.   Let me explain. Well actually, ya know what? Just listen to the show.    To the desert!

Everyone loves a good phantom menace, roaming the streets of Victorian London.  We're all familiar with The Spring Heeled Jack, and Jack the Ripper (no relation), and who could forget SPANKO?!   Tonight, we have a story that predates these fearsome brutes.  Tonight we present to you the tale of the Hammersmith ghost.  This tale is not so much about the ghost itself, but the murder trial that follo...

In the past, we have covered a couple cases where a bigfoot or a group of Bigfoots (Bigfeet?) act out violently, and in some cases, murderously.   When we heard about the documentary series Sasquatch, that investigates the story of a particularly ornery Bigfoot that kills three cannabis farmers in Northern California, we jumped on it.  We could not wait to go on that ride!    So this week, we are...

Alright, I'm just gonna come right out and say it:  Forget all the (Insert animal name here)mans out there.  Yeah, that's right Dogman.  I'm talking about you.  What are you laughing at Goatman?  You're included, too.  Oh, and I didn't forget about you, Bunnyman.  Your time is over.  Now is the time of the Elephantman!  No, I'm not referring to the derogatory name given to Joseph Merrick.    Ya kn...

For decades, researchers have been seeking proof that the UFO phenomenon was real.  For the longest time, they had to suffer through grainy, blurry photos; listen to a wide range of eye-witness accounts, with varying degrees of believability; and constant Government cover-ups. Then we got the tic-tac video, and things started to change.  First, the footage was released, then the pilots were interv...

Hey there, Fancy Pants.   It's been a while since we did anything with weird animals on the show, so we decided this week to discuss phantom animals.  Now these aren't ghost animals, these are more out of place animals...but maybe also cryptids.   For instance, one of the things we cover this week is phantom, or out of place, kangaroos.  Sounds pretty straight forward, right?  Escaped kangaroos, r...
