    45. The Dyatlov Pass Incident: A Hiking Trip That Became a Mystery
    2026/08/27

    In 1959, nine experienced hikers set out on an expedition through the Ural Mountains of Soviet Russia. But when they failed to return, a search party discovered their tent abandoned and cut open from the inside, with the hikers' belongings still inside and their bodies scattered across the snowy mountainside.


    In this episode, we dive into the mysterious Dyatlov Pass incident and retrace what happened to the group in the days leading up to their deaths. From the strange circumstances surrounding the abandoned tent to the injuries and unanswered questions that followed, we'll explore the investigation and the many theories that have kept this case alive for decades.


    Was there a natural explanation for what happened or is there something about the Dyatlov Pass incident that we’ll never be able to explain?

    For centuries, stories of a mysterious woman wandering near rivers and waterways have been passed down throughout Latin America and the American Southwest. Known as La Llorona, or the Weeping Woman, she is said to roam the night crying out for her lost children… and those who hear her cries may have reason to be afraid.


    In this episode of Haunted Hangout, we dive into the origins of La Llorona, the different versions of her tragic story, and the reported encounters that have kept this legend alive for generations. Is La Llorona simply a centuries-old cautionary tale, or could there be something more behind the stories of the Weeping Woman?
