This week on House of Weird, the lads tackle a chaotic mix of mysteries, legends, and general nonsense. We kick off with the Great Emu War (Australia’s most embarrassing military defeat), before diving into The Vertical Plane, reincarnation stories that refuse to stay buried, the mysterious man from Taured, uncanny time slips, and the eternally cursed Dybbuk Box.

Simon once again demonstrates his unique approach to both history and basic morality, while Andrew attempts the impossible — keeping the episode factually intact and socially acceptable. Between the dodgy theories, derailed tangents, and accidental insight, it’s a miracle this show ever makes it to air.

If you like your paranormal stories unpredictable, your science dubious, and your hosts profoundly unsupervised, this one’s for you.

He called himself The Great Beast 666, claimed to summon demons in the desert, and offered to psychically fight Hitler for the British government. It’s House of Weird’s deep dive into the life and chaos of Aleister Crowley — the poet, magician, pervert, and self-declared prophet who may or may not have started modern occultism by accident.

This week, Andrew and Simon explore the bizarre career of the “Wickedest Man in the World” — from Victorian England to the sands of Algeria, from sex magick to Nazi mystics — and somehow still find time for inappropriate tangents, mystical euphemisms, and at least one unwise attempt to explain Thelema after a beer.

If you like your history occult, horny, and slightly confusing, you’ve come to the right podcast.

This week we flap our way into one of America’s creepiest urban legends: the Mothman of Point Pleasant, West Virginia. Was it a giant bird, a government experiment gone wrong, or a harbinger of doom? Between glowing red eyes, collapsed bridges, and small-town hysteria, this one’s got it all.

We cover the original 1966 sightings, the chaos that followed, and how Mothman went from local terror to pop culture icon. Naturally, we also wander off into nonsense, bad accents, and at least one AI tangent we probably should’ve cut but didn’t.

If you’re into cryptids, curses, urban legends, and two idiots laughing their way through paranormal chaos, you’ll feel right at home.
