The Smurls moved into a house on Chase Street in West Pittston, Pennsylvania in August 1973. They claimed that the premises were disturbed by a demon that caused loud noises and bad odors, threw their dog into a wall, shook their mattress, pushed one of their daughters down a flight of stairs, and physically and sexually assaulted family members on several occasions.In 1986, the family brought in a pair of demonologists Ed and Lorraine Warren. According to Ed Warren, the demon that inhabited the Smurls home was "very powerful" and it shook mirrors and furniture after they tried to persuade it to leave by playing religious music and praying. Warren claimed he felt a drop in temperature and saw a "dark mass" form in the home, and the demon once left a message on a mirror telling him to "get out". After months of investigation, Warren alleged that he had a number of audiotapes containing knocking and rapping caused by the demon.Support the show

The theory of cellular memories states that memories, as well as personality traits, are not only stored in the brain but may also be stored in organs such as the heart. In 2009 Harvard Medical School defined cellular memories as “a sustained cellular response to a transient stimulus.” Basically, when a cell is introduced to a specific stimulus it will react in a certain way and every time it is given this stimulus it will have the same response. The best way to understand cellular memories is studying cases of organ transplants. One of the more famous cases includes a woman named Claire Sylvia. In the 70s this woman received a heart and lung transplant from an 18-year- old boy who died in a motorcycle accident. After her surgery Sylvia had cravings she never had before like beer and burgers. After some time, she contacted the family of her donor and was in shock that he enjoyed the same foods.Support the show

The Bermuda Triangle is a patch of ocean in the western North Atlantic Ocean. It’s near Florida and Bermuda and is famous for being the site of mysterious disappearances and spooky happenings. If you believe the legends, Vermont is also home to a cursed area known as the Bennington Triangle. The Bennington Triangle is located just north of (you guessed it) Bennington, Vermont. It’s actually not really a triangle so much as a swath of land that is a hotbed of paranormal and gruesome activity. The "triangle" is known for being the site of frequent UFO sightings, shadowy figures, and even flesh-eating rocks. Of course, Bigfoot aficionados also claim that the wooly hominid has been seen in the Bennington area.Support the show

According to Walton and a number of other members from the logging crew, on November 5, 1975, he was working with a timber stand improvement crew in the Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest near Snowflake, Arizona. While riding in a truck with six of his coworkers, they allegedly encountered a saucer-shaped object hovering over the ground approximately 110 feet (34 m) away, making a high-pitched buzz. Walton says that after he left the truck and approached the object, a beam of light suddenly appeared from the craft and knocked him unconscious.

Often the story-telling has been used to inspire fear and obedience.               I'd like to use this space to give all you awesome weirdos a heads up. We recently changed our studio set up and I didnt take the time check everything before recording, so the audio quality on this isn't what you're used to, and with all the other things we have going on right now we didn't have time to rerecord. We appologize and are working to get it right next time.

The most famous legend about the lost city of Dwarka can be found in the ancient epic of Mahabharata. Dwarka, like Atlantis, is said to have sunk beneath the sea at some point in the distant past. However, unlike Atlantis, whose remains have never been discovered, remnants of this ancient kingdom could be found in the depths. According to the sacred scripture of Srimad Bhagavatam, the city of Dwaraka was built in response to Jarasandha, the ruler of Magadha, who was constantly attacking Mathura. To prevent further attacks on his clan, Lord Krishna decided to establish a separate city on India’s western coast. The great architect Vishwakarma gave this concept life. Dwarka was built by Krishna near a place called Kushasthali, according to ancient texts. The city quickly rose to prominence and became the unstoppable pivot of Lord Krishna’s mission, housing thousands in approximately 900 palaces. Support the show
