SO EP:701 The Mothman Prophecies

SO EP:701 The Mothman Prophecies

This week on Sasquatch Odyssey, I’m joined by screenwriter and paranormal podcaster Richard Hatem — the mind behind the screenplay for The Mothman Prophecies and the host of Richard Hatem’s Paranormal Bookshelf. Richard and I first crossed paths back in September at the Mothman Festival in Point Pleasant, West Virginia, and I’ve been excited to get him on the mic ever since.

In our conversation, Richard takes us inside his first-ever Mothman Festival experience — the energy, the people, and the strange pull Point Pleasant has on anyone who’s even remotely fascinated by the unknown. From there, we dive deep into the making of The Mothman Prophecies: what inspired his approach, how he balanced real-world lore with cinematic storytelling, and the emotional undercurrent he wanted the film to carry. Richard shares what it was like shaping a story that lives in the space between dread, wonder, and grief — and why Mothman remains one of the most haunting and compelling American paranormal legends.

We also zoom out into the bigger picture: the strange intersections between Mothman, Bigfoot, UFOs, high strangeness, and the broader paranormal tapestry. Richard offers thoughtful insight into how these phenomena echo each other, why certain stories endure, and what our fascination with the unknown might say about us as human beings.

Finally, Richard talks about his show Paranormal Bookshelf and his love for the stories that hide in dusty corners of folklore, eyewitness encounters, and forgotten history — reminding us that the best paranormal discussions aren’t just about proving something exists… they’re about what these mysteries awaken inside us.

If you’re into Mothman lore, Bigfoot encounters, or the deeper “why” behind paranormal obsession, this one’s for you.

SO EP:8 My interview with the legendary Ron Morehead Bigfoot and his Sierra Sounds

SO EP:8 My interview with the legendary Ron Morehead Bigfoot and his Sierra Sounds

My guest tonight is the legendary Ron Morehead. Best known for the Sierra Sounds, Ron is a renowned researcher, author, producer, and more importantly an experiencer. He's been known for decades for his world-wide research into the Bigfoot/Sasquatch phenomenon. The Sierra Sounds are the only Bigfoot recordings that have been scientifically studied, time tested, and accredited as being genuine. Ron has documented his personal interactions with the giant beings and produced his story on CD and in his book "Voices in the Wilderness". Very few researchers of his caliber are brave enough to publicly consider the hundreds of reports that include that"spooky action at a distance," (Einstein). In his most recent book, "The Quantum Bigfoot," Ron goes above and beyond, combining decades of experience and tireless hours of research into the palm of quantum physics as it could pertain to Bigfoot/Sasquatch. Besides being a Keynote Speaker at many conventions, he has been featured on countless radio programs such as Coast to Coast, BBC TV documentaries, and the Learning Channel.
