The following written confession and photo were submitted via email: I was reminded of this photo this evening and thought you might like to see it. We have 160 acres of wooded property in the northern part of the Lower Peninsula of Michigan. Our tree cam took this photo of what looks like a ghost bird. I don’t know if it’s truly paranormal or if it’s just a bird flying by the camera.

On a recent member episode, Episode 380: Gateway Into a Paranormal Life (Members), guest Sean described seeing an entity wearing a cloak that “folded in” on itself and disappeared before his eyes.

Who, or what, is Spring Heeled Jack?

The following written confession was shared via Reddit: In 2017, I was in Northern Ireland for a college field trip. My religious studies class was visiting stone circles throughout N. Ireland and Ireland to focus on religious geography. On this particular day, I think we were visiting the Beaghmore Stone circles. It was a normal cloudy day and we were enjoying learning the history of the bronze age wonder… I decided to climb over the small farm wire fence and see if there was anything interesting in the woods…

The following written confession was shared via Reddit: This is a real experience that happened to me when I was around ten, camping with my family at a provincial park in Newfoundland, Canada in the mid-1980s. In Newfoundland there is a lot of traditional folklore about fairies and being "fairy-led" - i.e. being sort of mesmerized and stolen away by the fairies - and although I've never really believed in that stuff, whenever I hear those tales I can't help but think about this experience.

The following written confession was shared on Distractify by nasty-otter: When I was 16, my grandparents hired me to house sit for three weeks at their farm house in a small town. It was the second to last night of my stay and all had gone well for a 16 year old completely alone in a big empty house for three weeks. It was about 1 a.m. and it started to thunderstorm outside, so I decided to turn everything off and go to bed. I was upstairs in the front bedroom that overlooks their driveway, using the toilet when I heard a loud noise outside….

The following written confession was shared via Reddit by alexsangthat: So I don’t really know how to explain this or if it even fits on this sub or even what actually happened if I’m being honest, but regardless I will try to relay the story. I was driving to work yesterday morning and I’m coming up a side street that connects to a very busy road in my area. It’s the main road that stretches through like 20 towns. I get to the red light at this main road and sit there for about 15 seconds before seeing a car pull up behind me. As the car comes to a complete stop behind me, my eyes drift from the rearview mirror to the stop light in front of me….

The following written confession was shared via Reddit: One of the strangest things that ever happened to me was one time when I was first married, probably around 1987 I took my wife's brother and three nephews camping in a cave. It was located on Highway 17 near Waynesville Missouri, near the Gascanade River, that's not to far from Ft. Lenard Wood. This is a huge cave and can be seen from the highway…

Videos and images of orbs can be a tough call when it comes to figuring out what exactly they are. Many cases can probably be attributed to backscatter, or an insect scrambling in front of a lens, or even a reflection created by the camera itself. Then there are other orb images that defy the regular explanations and make you take a closer look at the footage to figure out what’s going on! We’ve got one of those videos here - sent to us by our neighbor - so help us come up with an explanation! What could these orbs be?

The following written confession was submitted via email: I was just listening to your podcast episode 64 on the Disappearing Church, and it reminded me of an experience I had when I was around 12 years of age. I lived in a rural portion of NY near an old Indian Reservation, the town is old and has changed much over the centuries (you would recognize nothing). My friend and I were hiking in the woods and came out onto a field…
