The Dover Demon is not the strongest case in anomalistics — but it is one of the most useful.
In this first StrangeSpotting podcast episode, we examine the 1977 Dover, Massachusetts sightings as a test case for serious anomalistics: how do we handle a small, strange, fragile case that has too little evidence for certainty, but too much structure to dismiss lazily?
Was it a misidentified animal? A teenage hoax? A local legend in formation? A small humanoid encounter that still refuses to become simple?
This episode is not about blind belief. It is not about ridicule either. It is about method: separating testimony from legend, evidence from proof, and mystery from mythology.
The strange deserves inquiry.
