For decades the dangers of hitchhiking have been illustrated both in pop fiction and all-too-real accounts of those unlucky enough to have picked-up (or been picked-up by) the wrong person. But while stories surrounding the sundry horrors of violence, torture and murder are more than enough to keep most well clear of the hitchhiking scene, there's yet another factor that ought concern late night m

On Christmas morning, 1996, Bloody Mary and her mutinous minions took heaven by storm, Satan was betrayed, God barely escaped, the angels were exiled to Earth, and homeless children across the US began receiving dispatches from spectral messengers. In God's absence, the highest hope these already troubled kids had was to die a good death so they could be taken to a secret base in the Everglades an

On the holiest night of the year, the unthinkable happened: a vast horde of demons, led by the Virgin Mother and Satan's former ally—re-branded as a cruel combination of child-slaying La Llorona and the mirror-dwelling monstrosity known as Bloody Mary—came roaring from the fiery depths of Hell, stormed the gates of Heaven and, against all odds, became the new rulers of paradise.

In late 1996—with the world teetering ever closer to the edge of a new millennium—something extraordinary began to spread among the youngest and most vulnerable of America's homeless population.

#386: E.S.M.B. - Face Wing-Wing Mouth: The Pride Of El Yunque
Puerto Rico's legendarily monster infested El Yunque National park has been the site of an amazing array of truly terrifying (and potentially lethal) paranormal phenomena. But few of these cases can compare to an event that took place in 1981, that involved a turbine powered UFO, tiny pilots, a smoke-show Nordic doctor and a pair of anesthetic spraying, touchy-feely chupacabras; all of which would
#385: Cosmic Cuisine: Fast Food Of The Gods
Of all the logic defying antics that have allegedly occurred between human beings and E.T.s, few are more perplexing than those involving food of unearthly origin. These alien appetizers are sometimes offered in good faith and other times exist only to incapacitate unsuspecting earthlings. But whether the motivations of these inexplicable entities are insidious or altruistic, one thing is abundant
#384: E.S.M.B. Listener Stories Part 35: Doppelgängers vs Mimics
There are few opponents more cunning, insidious or dangerous than the individual we see every single day staring back at us from within a mirror. Being us, they know all of our most shameful secrets, egregious actions and illicit desires. What's more they know how to hone these wispy concepts into devastating weapons which they wield with uncanny accuracy against the one person, most vulnerable to
#383: I Killed A Super-Sexy Psychic Werewolf
In 2017, a trucker was hauling a load down a desolate stretch in Michigan's Manistee National Forest when he had a confrontation with a mammoth monstrosity that left him fearing for both his sanity and his life… but, terrifying though this life threatening encounter was, little could he have imagined that this violent brush would be just the beginning of his mind-bending odyssey into the dark unde
#382: Cold War Creepers: Russian Lake Monster Mania
Spanning some 5,600-miles from east to west and 2,800-miles from north to south, Russia is a sprawling land mass that boasts a near unfathomable 2.8-million lakes. Bearing this in mind it should come as no surprise that the former Soviet Union is not only infested with lake monsters, but that those on offer are some of the craziest cryptids on the books.

#381: Big Yellows Part 2: The Unstoppable Enemy
In the last days of the Vietnam War, six heavily-armed Marines—while hiking through the darkness of the DMZ—narrowly avoided a run-in with a trio of bizarre behemoths. In the moments following this near-miss, the grunts were counting their lucky stars... but little could these battle weary men have suspected that, in mere moments, all hell was about to break loose.

#380: Big Yellows Part 1: Scourge Of The Jungle
Near the end of the Vietnam War a battle hardened team of American Marines were sent on a covert mission into the dense jungles of the DMZ in order to ambush a communist convoy. But that moonless night these well-armed warriors weren't destined to be the aggressors but the victims of an inexplicable army of unknown—and decidedly inhuman—enemies.

#379: The Unthinkable Horrors Of Littlefield
In a move straight out of '80's horror flick, a group of Texas teens broke into a decrepit old house owned by a pair of elderly eccentrics; spinster sisters who rarely showed their faces in public. But what began as a night of juvenile hijinks quickly devolved into a horrific Fortean flood that would haunt the unfortunate souls involved for the rest of their tragically short lives.

#378: The Devouring Deity Of Dafra
Lurking in the murky depths of a landlocked lake in West Africas remote Dafra region, this colossal, flesh eating aquatic anomaly was worshiped as a god by locals who—unlike skeptical christian missionary—were well aware of the dangers faced by those who strayed too close to the blood-slicked rocks at the water's edge; as just one misstep could mean instant death.

#377: The Tickey Man
In the depths of America's Heartland dwells a sinister beast; a bizarre amalgam of various creatures that some might assume is a classic unidentified animal. But those who've come face-to-face with this ferocious fiend know better—this is no mere cryptid, but a horrific curse made flesh and the toll it extracts is nothing less than human life.

#376: The God Possession Part 2: Angel Faced Scum
After 3-hellish-years of possession had cost him everything he held dear, Jean, a once wealthy and beloved family man now found himself destitute and alone; standing on a Japanese mountaintop.
