SUP YOU BEAUTIFUL KOOOOOOOOOOKS! This episode we're taking a look at 2 specific...ghosts? Cryptids? Hallucinations of mass hysteria? Humanoid...things? Whatever the hell they were, (OR ARE?) they both, much like the more popular "Mothman", seem to be entities that are also the embodied omens of horrific shit coming just around the corner in history! Pray to your many dark gods that YOU! never see either of them! Listen up as we get deep into the folklore, the sightings, and the tragedies and atrocities that their very appearances seemed to foretell. NOTE! This episode is kinda/ sorta part 1 of an UN official 2 parter (one kinda melts into the other...you'll see!) PLEASE TO ENJOY!

SUP KOOOOOOOOOOOKS! This episode we take a look at some of the less investigated aspects of the "Springheeled Jack" story! Specifically, that whole "secret cabal of bored, rich aristocrats" aspect that may make old Jack the actual Anti-Batman...even before there was a goddamn Batman! That, plus some considerations given to the potential technologies possibly involved in this tale, as well as how that very same secret technology might've also migrated to the U.S. and was maybe even used to make a straight up true, no shit, for real (probably) WWII superhero known for Mario Bros. jumping across Nazi noggins! ALSO! What's up with old Jack's "man/devil/bear" identity disorder? More evidence that there were multiple "Jacks" perhaps? Listen up & find out! PLEASE TO ENJOY!
