For over 50 years, the Zodiac Killer has remained one of America’s greatest unsolved mysteries — but what if the clues weren’t only in the ciphers? What if the real story hides in the shadows of San Francisco’s occult underground?
In this GITN Strange Bite episode, we explore the eerie overlap between three dark figures who walked the same fog-soaked city during the same chaotic decade:
🔺 The Zodiac Killer — a phantom who weaponized fear
🔺 Anton LaVey — the Black Pope of the Church of Satan
🔺 Michael Aquino — a military intelligence officer turned occult philosopher
All three existed within a 20-mile radius during a time when San Francisco was boiling over with counterculture experiments, MK-Ultra operations, cult activity, symbolism, and mass psychological unrest.
Is this merely coincidence… or convergence?
This episode dives into:
• The rise of LaVey’s infamous Black House and occult theatrics
• Aquino’s shadowy role at the Presidio and the birth of the Temple of Set
• How Zodiac weaponized symbols, letters, and psychological terror
• San Francisco’s MK-Ultra safehouses and LSD mind-control experiments
• Why the late 60s created a perfect storm of paranoia, ritualism, and violence
• The eerie cultural “frequency” that all three men seemed to tap into
We’re not claiming a conspiracy.
We’re exploring an atmosphere — a psychological and cultural storm — that still haunts investigators, historians, and the Bay Area itself.
In San Francisco… mystery never dies.
You know Thanksgiving: turkey, family arguments, and pretending you don’t want a third plate of mashed potatoes.But in Plymouth, Massachusetts, there’s another tradition hiding underneath the holiday cheer—something colder, older, and way more unsettling. For generations, locals have claimed that a tall, gaunt figure in Pilgrim clothes appears near the shoreline every November. He doesn’t talk. He doesn’t smile. He doesn’t even look up. He just walks… slowly… as if replaying something terrible from a past that refuses to stay buried.In this GITN Strange Bite episode, we dig into the legend known as The Ghost of Plymouth Rock:The messy, rarely told origin of Plymouth Rock (and why the story doesn’t add up)The brutal “Starving Time” of 1620–1621 that turned Plymouth into a graveyardWitness accounts of a Pilgrim ghost walking the shore and vanishing mid-stepTheories connecting the spirit to John Goodman, Thomas English, and the drowned and forgottenWhy some believe the ghost is trapped by the rock itselfThe Wampanoag spirit angle: is this even a Pilgrim—or something much older?Skeptical explanations vs. paranormal ones: residual hauntings, stone tape theory, water memory, and “anniversary” ghostsAnd the biggest question of all: What if this ghost isn’t theirs… but ours?Whether you’re a skeptic, a believer, or just here for dark history and haunted holiday vibes, this story turns Thanksgiving from cozy to quietly cursed.🎧 Enjoy more GITN Strange Bites for paranormal stories, haunted history, and the weird shadows behind everyday traditions.
There’s a place on Long Island where the ocean screams against the shore and an 80-foot radar dish still points at the sky like it’s waiting for orders. Officially, it’s Camp Hero State Park. Unofficially, it’s the home of the Montauk Project, the conspiracy that inspired Stranger Things, broke Cold War secrecy rules, and maybe produced the world’s first government-approved psychic monster.In this GITN deep-dive, we track the legend from its roots:Camp Hero — a WWII coastal fortress turned Cold War radar hubThe Philadelphia Experiment — the alleged disaster that launched two sailors into the futureThe Cameron Brothers — maybe real, maybe rewritten, maybe erasedPreston Nichols — the man with the memories they say weren’t hisThe Montauk Chair — psychic amplification, time tunnels, remote viewingThe Monster — created from thought, fueled by fear, and apparently immune to bulletsStranger Things — the TV version of a story that has been whispered since the 70sWe stack the official story against the fringe theory, break down the physics, examine the documentation, and walk right up to the edge of the “Did this actually happen?” cliff… then lean forward a little too far.Mind control. Missing kids. Time dislocation. EM fields strong enough to make your fillings ache.Welcome to Montauk, where the legend is stranger than the show it inspired.
People are vanishing in America’s national parks — and no one can explain why.

They say the Bible tells the whole story — but one book was left out. A book that describes angels who fell to Earth, took human wives, and fathered a race of monstrous giants called the Nephilim.This is the Book of Enoch — an ancient text so strange, so detailed, that early church leaders decided to erase it. But what if this missing book explains everything Christianity never could — demons, hauntings, ancient ruins, even the origin of evil itself?In this episode of Chronicles of Doubt, we break down the story of the Watchers, their rebellion against Heaven, the creation of the Nephilim, and the “cosmic cleanup” that led to the Great Flood. We’ll look at the forbidden knowledge they taught humanity, the strange archaeological claims of giant skeletons and lost civilizations, and why this story was too dangerous to remain in the Bible.Maybe the Book of Enoch wasn’t mythology at all… Maybe it was history the Church couldn’t control.
In December 2021, panic erupted inside a historic church in Vicenza, Italy. A 26-year-old woman entered the confessional seeking help, then began to scream, curse, and speak in strange voices. Within minutes, priests locked the doors.
Police and medics waited outside as four friars battled what they believed was the Devil for nearly nine hours. This episode unpacks the full story of the Monte Berico exorcism, what witnesses saw, what the Church claimed, and what skeptics think really happened. Was it genuine possession… or a crisis of faith and psychology spiraling in real time?
We’ll explore: The timeline of the nine-hour ritual inside the locked church, Vatican rules requiring psychiatric evaluation before exorcisms, media turned a regional event into a global “proof of the demonic.”
The tension between belief, mental health, and the need to find evil in chaos, nightfall, one woman collapsed, and a modern legend was born.

A scream on Royal Street. A woman on the cobblestones, two neat crescents at her throat, and a gentleman who never eats.This is New Orleans’ most persistent legend—where a noble with perfect manners meets two blue-collar brothers and the city’s shadow tells the truth it can’t prove.New Orleans sells music, mystery, and—if you know the right corner—fear. The Royal Street balcony incident was tied to Jacques St. Germain, the elegant stranger who threw parties and avoided plates. Then it shifts to the Carter brothers, dockworkers whose apartment—according to the legend—hid chairs, bandages, and a ritual that turned neighbors into resources; two eras, one appetite.We separate the case file from the campfire without killing the ghost of either. How much of the story lives in archives—and how much survives because the city needs it? From European vampire lore to West African spiritual frameworks, from empty coffins to modern, self-identified vampire communities with rules and screening kits, this is New Orleans as it really operates: charm in the front room, extraction in the back.If you’re here for myth vs. records, metaphor vs. body count, and the way a city frames its darkness to make the light look honest, you’re in the right place. The balcony is still there. The door is still just a door. But once you learn the route the legends walk, you stop looking away and start looking deeper.

In downtown Dayton. A 26-year-old steps off, walks toward a goth club called Asylum… and vanishes. Tonight we investigate the Phil Gall cold case, the 1990s Dayton goth/industrial scene, and the headline-grabbing claim that the city hosted “one of the largest vampire covens outside New Orleans”—a claim amplified by a Netflix documentary that reportedly never aired.We separate verified facts from rumor: the last credible sighting near Asylum, the years the case went cold, and the later occult-ritual allegation from a retired officer. We dig into the venue’s real history (address, capacity, reunions) to show how gothic aesthetics can be mistaken for criminal ritual. We tackle the big question: Are vampires real? We look at three lanes(1) supernatural revenants and why historical “forensic” reports dissolve under modern taphonomy (2) modern vampyre communities (sanguinarians, psychic vampires, lifestylers) and their consent/safety norms (3) the psychology behind “energy vampires” (emotional contagion, co-rumination, boundary failures) and why some interactions leave you wiped out. Finally, we explore why the documentary about Dayton’s coven hype was reportedly shelved, what’s confirmed vs. speculation, and what evidence would actually move this case forward.
The Hinsdale House in New York has been called one of the most haunted houses in America. In the 1970s, the Dandy family moved into what looked like a peaceful farmhouse—only to discover footsteps in empty halls, voices whispering names, and shadows watching from the windows.

The diary and book Echoes of a Haunting by Clara Dandy
How modern investigators and the home’s current caretaker, Daniel Klaes, keep the story alive
