Ep.57: Peeking Through The Door: A Rake's Glare
Exploring The Unknown Podcast
03/15/25 • 50 min
A late night in the Pennsylvania woods turned into a nightmare when something followed our guest home. While taking photos of items he was selling, he heard movement unlike any animal he knew. As an experienced outdoorsman familiar with the sounds of deer, raccoons, and other wildlife, these footsteps stood out as distinctly wrong. When his camera flash illuminated the darkness, the footsteps stopped momentarily before accelerating toward him.
Fleeing to the safety of his home, he thought the encounter was over—until he glimpsed movement at his back door. There, hunched down and peering at him with glowing yellow eyes, was a gray, skeletal humanoid creature. Its skin appeared sunken around the bones, giving it an emaciated appearance despite having recognizably human features. When our guest moved, the entity darted away on all fours with unnatural speed.
The location adds another layer of intrigue to this terrifying encounter. Situated in Pennsylvania's Chestnut Ridge area, reportedly on former Native American lands, the property already had a reputation for paranormal activity. Our guest later discovered his description matched internet folklore about an entity known as "The Rake," though he had no prior knowledge of these stories. Unlike Bigfoot or other well-known cryptids, this creature defies easy categorization, challenging our understanding of what might be lurking in the shadows.
This encounter raises profound questions: What exists in the liminal spaces between our world and others? How do ancient Native American legends of skinwalkers and wendigoes connect to modern sightings? And most unnervingly—what happens when these entities follow us home? Join us for this bone-chilling firsthand account that will make you think twice about what might be watching from just beyond your doorway.

Ep.41: Pregnant Woman Stalked by Aswang – Shocking True Story!
Exploring The Unknown Podcast
10/22/24 • 34 min
What if the mythical creatures we've feared for centuries are more than just legends? Explore the enigmatic world of Filipino folklore as we uncover the secrets behind the Aswang, a shapeshifting entity shrouded in mystery. Discover how cultures around the globe share unsettling similarities with their own tales of skinwalkers and vampires. We unravel folklore methods of detection, from peculiar eye reflections to the use of special oils, and consider how these legends might have served societal roles in promoting caution and maintaining boundaries.
Skepticism meets curiosity in a compelling exploration of how myths and rumors intertwine with government narratives. Sparked by a recent press conference urging rational responses to urban legends, we explore the fine line between belief and skepticism. Delve into stories like Jack Osbourne's ventures in paranormal investigations and the alleged use of fear-inducing folklore by the CIA in the 1950s. We question how authorities might use these tales to control public sentiment and ponder the potential impact of official warnings about mythical creatures like the Lizard Man.
Prepare for spine-tingling stories as we share chilling encounters and supernatural dilemmas, including a gripping account from Manila where a pregnant woman faces an Aswang. Compare these experiences with other legends like Bigfoot and unravel various detection methods, from mirrors and crucifixes to discerning eyes. As we wrap up, we invite you to join the ongoing conversation on our Facebook page, encouraging listeners to venture beyond the episode and engage with these captivating topics.

Ep.59: Time Slips, Bigfoot, and The Lost City Of Atlantis
Exploring The Unknown Podcast
03/17/25 • 56 min
What happens when we pull back the veil between our world and the unexplained? From bone-chilling encounters in the woods to whispers of government time travel experiments, this episode takes you on a journey through the shadows of possibility.
We begin with haunting cryptid encounters – skeletal figures leaping across roads, creatures that move faster than humanly possible, and unexplainable physical contacts that left witnesses shaken. The question emerges: what exactly is Bigfoot? Our conversation explores the fascinating theory that these beings might be interdimensional rather than purely biological, possibly serving as guardians of nature or existing in a realm just beyond our perception.
The mysteries deepen as we examine the infamous Philadelphia Experiment of 1943, where a Navy destroyer allegedly teleported over 200 miles in an instant. Witness accounts describe a greenish-blue mist surrounding the ship before its disappearance, and horrifying consequences for crew members – some reportedly fused into the ship's hull, others vanishing entirely. Could the government have been experimenting with time manipulation decades ago, and what might they have discovered?
Perhaps most compelling is our exploration of the Eye of the Sahara as a potential location for the lost civilization of Atlantis. This massive geological formation matches Plato's descriptions with uncanny precision – concentric rings, appropriate size, and geographical markers aligning with ancient accounts. Once possibly lush and green, could this desert structure be hiding humanity's most legendary lost city not beneath waves, but beneath sand?
Join us as we navigate these mysteries with open minds and a spirit of curious exploration. Have you experienced something you can't explain? We'd love to hear your stories and suggestions for future topics as we continue our journey into the unknown.

Ep.58: Bigfoot In The Blink Of An Eye: The Leap That Stunned Me
Exploring The Unknown Podcast
03/15/25 • 65 min
A nighttime scream from the kitchen window of an Arkansas farmhouse would forever change Steve's understanding of our world. As a 19-year-old soldier stationed at Fort Polk in 1975, he found himself face-to-face with something science told him couldn't exist – a massive, bipedal creature that cleared a five-foot fence with ease and ran across open pasture "like a track star."
Standing just 25 feet away in the bright moonlight, Steve observed what would haunt him for decades: an eight-foot-tall, 700-pound being with a humanlike profile but clearly not human. The encounter culminated with the creature shattering through solid oak boards and unleashing a roar unlike anything Steve had ever heard in his extensive outdoor experience.
For 45 years, this decorated military veteran and retired law enforcement officer kept his encounter locked inside, fearing the ridicule that would follow. Only recently has he broken his silence, discovering his story resonates with thousands who've had similar experiences but lacked the courage to come forward.
Steve's testimony gains additional weight through corroborating incidents, including a massive military operation at Fort Polk where an entire battalion reportedly encountered a similar creature, resulting in a base-wide search that discovered a military transport truck mysteriously crushed and overturned.
Through sharing his experience, Steve has become an advocate for others harboring similar encounters, particularly fellow military and law enforcement personnel who fear professional repercussions from speaking out. His thoughtful reflections on what these creatures might be – intelligent beings with both human and animal characteristics – offers compelling insights into why they've remained so elusive despite countless sightings across North America.
Have you been keeping an encounter to yourself? Perhaps it's time to share your story and discover you're not alone in what you've experienced.
