Encounters x291 - Urban Legends Experienced in Real Life

High in the frozen Alps, a man flees through the snow, his breath ragged, his body battered. Blood—his own or someone else’s—drips onto the ice. A shadow looms. A blade flashes. Darkness takes him. Fast forward 5,300 years. When hikers stumble upon his withered body, they unknowingly unleash one of the most chilling archaeological mysteries of all time. This is Ötzi, the Iceman—a prehistoric murder victim whose discovery would captivate scientists... and possibly awaken something sinister. 🔎 What we uncover in this episode: The murder mystery frozen in time—was Ötzi a shaman, a warrior, or a fugitive? Ancient tattoos that could be the world’s earliest acupuncture treatment. The tools, weapons, and last meal of a man from the Copper Age. The deadly "Iceman Curse"—is it just coincidence, or did something awaken with Ötzi’s discovery? As scientists piece together the details of his violent end, a series of strange and tragic deaths befall those who worked with his remains. Coincidence? Or a warning from beyond the grave?  And if Ötzi’s curse isn’t eerie enough, stay tuned until the end for this week’s listener story—supernatural museum activity and possibly a chocolate stealing mummy?

Our pets do more than keep us company—they protect us from unseen forces, deliver messages from the beyond, and sometimes reveal a little too much about the paranormal world. 🐾 We’re talking: A cat who spoke a warning in a human voice. Was it just a dream, or did this feline guardian save her human from a dark entity?  A listener recalls seeing her deceased dog, bringing comfort—until a terrifying series of events suggests something darker may have been lurking nearby. A witch is left questioning reality when she sees her beloved cat transform into a towering, humanoid creature covered in orange fur. Is this its true form, a protective spirit, or something darker?

Episode 315 - The Vampire Epidemic of Medveđa: A True Horror Story What if we told you that one of the most terrifying vampire stories ever… is actually documented in government records? 😱 In this episode, we unearth the chilling legend of Arnold Paole, a Serbian soldier whose alleged undead rampage left an entire town convinced that vampires were real. We’re talking about bodies that refused to decay, villagers dropping dead after seeing a ghostly figure at the foot of their bed, and an official military investigation that left even the skeptics shook. Was this a case of mass hysteria? A mysterious disease? Or did vampires actually stalk 18th-century Serbia?  But before we sink our teeth into that, Sabrina meets a special someone and might just have manifested a paranormal investigation with her…  PLUS: A listener story about a mysterious bite mark and lost time experience that’ll make you rethink doing laundry alone. 🧛‍♂️ The findings discussed in this episode are in an official government report titled Visum et Repertum (Seen & Discovered) and you can read it, translated to English: https://web.archive.org/web/20060315125133/http://www.vampgirl.com/visum.html  Watch the video version here.

Haunted with Jake Haendel of Blink Life can be stranger than fiction, and that’s why our guest this month is a perfect addition to the weird world of Two Girls One Ghost! Corinne’s co-creator and subject of the podcast Blink, Jake Haendel, joins us to share some supernatural elements of his story. Blink tells the unbelievable true story of Jake, a former chef and drug dealer who, after battling addiction, was diagnosed with an ultra-rare and terminal brain disease. Given just months to live, Jake defied all odds and became the only known survivor. But his journey didn’t end there. While in a coma-like state, Jake experienced what can only be described as out-of-body experiences, eerie premonitions, and consciousness beyond medical explanation. Were these hallucinations, or did he tap into something more? Jake recounts his past, the supernatural elements of his survival, and the mind-bending questions about consciousness, life, and death. Join us as we uncover the story that’s part medical mystery, part paranormal enigma, and entirely unforgettable.

Episode 314 - The Book No One Can Read: The Voynich Manuscript Mystery A 600-year-old book written in an unknown language, bizarre botanical illustrations that don’t exist on Earth, and a possible wizard on the run—this episode dives into the biggest literary mystery of all time. This is the unreadable book, the Voynich Manuscript. We explore its enigmatic origins, the life of rare book collector Wilfred Voynich, and the theories surrounding its possible author, Roger Bacon—a medieval friar with a suspiciously wizard-like reputation. But this isn’t just a history lesson—things get personal. Has Corinne been hexed? Could crystals be the answer? And how exactly does the Squonk, the world’s saddest cryptid, fit into all of this? From CIA codebreakers and AI decryption attempts to extraterrestrial connections and secret societies, we explore the theories, hoaxes, and paranormal possibilities. Is this a centuries old prank? A journal dropped by an alien (obviously it's this one)? Tune in to find out what is going on with the Voynich Manuscript.  Watch the Video Version Here  Have ghost stories of your own?
