In episode 747: Hatman the Soul Hunter, Chad Phillippi shares his chilling journey from childhood occultism to a full-blown spiritual battle in the Alaskan wilderness. Groomed into astral projection and candle magick by a potentially nefarious librarian, Chad opened doors he couldn’t close—doors that followed him into adulthood. After fleeing toxic mold in Washington, his family moved to what they believed would be a healing refuge in Alaska. Instead, they found a house stalked by shadow figures, a red-eyed Hat Man, and a little ghost girl who called out in the night.

As the spiritual attacks escalated—golem-like creatures, spectral stagecoaches, and visions of the dead—the family was pushed to the brink. With the help of a spiritual warfare mentor, they buried Bibles, anointed the land, and drove out the presence. But when a buried camper with hair on its window was uncovered and reburied, the darkness returned with force. Forced to flee through a coming storm, they left everything behind. Because this wasn’t just a haunting, it was a trap. And someone, or something, didn’t want them to make it out.

In episode 746: The Rise of Nephilim Magick; Tony is joined by Pastor Troy Brewer, a globally traveled pastor, author, and rescuer of human trafficking victims, whose life straddles the line between mission work and spiritual warfare. What began with rescuing trafficked children from cartel-controlled zones quickly unraveled into something darker—something supernatural. Pastor Troy’s bold efforts drew retaliation from the unseen: dreams of warfare, demonic visitations through Zoom, and portals tearing open in places they shouldn’t exist.

The warfare was relentless. Hybrid entities stepping into our world. A demon calling itself "Impenetrable" stalking his family. Even a Colombian prison filled with murderers wasn’t the end, but every confrontation revealed one thing: darkness trembles at the name of Jesus. From angelic encounters to divine protection in the belly of chaos, Pastor Troy’s story forces a question: what if the battle between good and evil is more literal than we think?
