    The Hopkinsville Goblins were...strAInge
    2026/05/21

    Episode Description

    In August 1955, a family near Kelly, Kentucky, just outside Hopkinsville, claimed that strange small figures had surrounded their farmhouse after a bright object crossed the night sky. What followed became one of the most famous close-encounter stories in American folklore: hours of gunfire, terrified witnesses, police officers searching the property, and a legend that would later be remembered as the Hopkinsville Goblins case. Skeptics point to meteors, owls, stress, and panic; believers point to the number of witnesses, the duration of the event, and the sheer strangeness of the details. Either way, the case remains one of the most enduring American UFO stories of the 1950s.

    Episode Notes

    Battle of Los Angeles — Show Notes

    In February 1942, just weeks after Pearl Harbor and one day after a Japanese submarine shelled the California coast, Los Angeles erupted into panic. Air raid sirens screamed, searchlights crossed the night sky, and anti-aircraft guns fired more than a thousand rounds at something no one could clearly identify. Was it enemy aircraft, weather balloons, wartime nerves, or something stranger? This episode of StrAInge looks at the famous “Battle of Los Angeles,” the overreaction, the legend, and the possibility that something unidentified may have started it all.

    Peg Entwistle and the Hollywood Sign Ghosts

    Peg Entwistle was a stage actress with real Broadway credentials before Hollywood transformed her into legend. Born in Wales in 1908, she built a promising theatrical career and later appeared in Thirteen Women, the film most often associated with her name. Over time, public memory reduced her to a tragic symbol, but the historical record shows she was a working actress with serious ambitions and genuine talent.

    The Hollywood Sign also began as something very different from the myth people know now. In 1923 it was erected as “Hollywoodland,” a giant real estate advertisement for a housing development in the hills above Los Angeles. It was never meant to be an eternal landmark, much less a global emblem of fame, glamour, and movie stardom. But over time the sign outgrew its commercial origin and became one of the most recognizable and emotionally loaded images in American culture.

    Peg Entwistle’s death in 1932 fused her story permanently to that hillside. She made her way to the Hollywoodland Sign, climbed behind the first “H,” and fell to her death at just twenty-four years old. The press quickly sensationalized the event, and her identity became bound to the landmark in a way that has lasted for generations. From that point forward, the Sign was no longer only a symbol of ambition. It was also a symbol of failure, despair, and the darker side of Hollywood fantasy.

    That tragedy became the foundation for one of Los Angeles’s most enduring ghost stories. Later accounts claimed that Peg Entwistle’s spirit haunted the trails and slopes near the Sign. In the most common version of the legend, she appears as a pale blonde woman in old-fashioned clothing, often glimpsed in fog or dim evening light. Some stories add the scent of gardenia perfume, a detail that helped give the haunting an even more eerie, cinematic quality.

    What makes the story last is the collision between fact and folklore. Peg Entwistle was real. Her death was real. The Hollywoodland Sign was real. The ghost story grew afterward, shaped by retelling, atmosphere, and the city’s love of transforming human tragedy into myth. Whether taken as a paranormal account or a symbolic Hollywood legend, the haunting remains one of the best-known ghost stories in Los Angeles history.

    This episode explores both the documented life of Peg Entwistle and the supernatural legend that followed. It looks at how a working actress became a permanent part of Hollywood lore, how the Hollywoodland Sign became the Hollywood Sign, and why that one death still casts such a long shadow over the hills above Los Angeles.

    2026/03/22
    Strange — The Ghosts of the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel

    The glamour was real. So are the ghosts.

    In this episode of Strange, we step inside one of Los Angeles’ most iconic landmarks: the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel. Opened in 1927 at the height of Hollywood’s Golden Age, the Roosevelt has hosted legends, scandals, and—according to countless witnesses—something far more unsettling.

    From the spirit of Marilyn Monroe lingering in a mirror… to the restless energy of Montgomery Clift pacing the halls… to unexplained phone calls, cold spots, and shadowy figures… the Roosevelt may be one of the most haunted buildings in California.

    This is not just a ghost story. This is Hollywood history that refuses to stay buried.

    Episode Overview
    • The founding of the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel and its connection to early Hollywood
    • The first Academy Awards ceremony held inside the hotel in 1929
    • The life, career, and tragic presence of Marilyn Monroe
    • The strange and persistent hauntings linked to Montgomery Clift
    • Reports from guests, staff, and paranormal investigators
    • The psychology of hauntings vs. something more unexplained
    • Why the Roosevelt continues to attract believers—and skeptics
    Key Hauntings Featured Marilyn Monroe’s Mirror

    Guests and staff have reported seeing the reflection of Marilyn Monroe in a full-length mirror that once hung in her suite. Witnesses describe her appearing briefly, then vanishing when approached.

    Montgomery Clift’s Room (Room 928)

    Clift stayed at the Roosevelt while filming From Here to Eternity and was known to rehearse intensely. Guests have reported:

    • Hearing a trumpet playing when no one is there
    • Footsteps pacing the room above
    • Sudden cold spots and unseen presences
    The Blossom Ballroom

    Site of the first Academy Awards, the ballroom is said to host shadow figures and unexplained movements, particularly late at night.

    The Cinegrill

    Now closed, but once a hotspot for sightings. Staff reported disembodied voices, objects moving, and a lingering presence believed to be a former performer.

    Real History Behind the Hauntings
    • Opened in 1927 by a group that included Mary Pickford, Douglas Fairbanks, and Louis B. Mayer
    • Hosted the first Academy Awards on May 16, 1929
    • Marilyn Monroe lived in the hotel early in her career
    • Montgomery Clift resided there during a pivotal moment in his life and career

    Why This Story Endures

    Hollywood is built on illusion—but the Roosevelt blurs the line between performance and reality. These aren’t just ghost stories. They’re echoes of fame, pressure, tragedy, and the people who lived too brightly, too briefly.

    And maybe… never left.

  • John Titor is/was/will be...strAInge

    John Titor is/was/will be...strAInge
    2026/03/12
    StrAInge – Episode Notes John Titor: The Internet’s Time Traveler Between November 2000 and March 2001, a mysterious poster calling himself John Titor appeared on internet forums claiming to be a U.S. soldier from the year 2036. Over the course of several months, he described his mission, the mechanics of time travel, and a dark future awaiting humanity. What made the story especially compelling was one detail: his mission involved retrieving an obscure early personal computer — the IBM 5100. Two decades later, the legend of John Titor remains one of the most famous mysteries of the early internet. The First Appearance The story began in late 2000 when a user calling himself TimeTravel_0 started posting on online forums devoted to time travel and science speculation. On November 2, 2000, the poster claimed he was a time traveler from the year 2036, sent on a mission by the U.S. military. According to the posts, his mission was not to prevent disaster or change history. Instead, he had been sent back to 1975 to retrieve a specific computer: > the IBM 5100 Portable Computer. He claimed the machine had a hidden ability that could help engineers in the future debug old computer systems during a massive infrastructure crisis. The IBM 5100 The IBM 5100, released in 1975, was one of the earliest portable computers. It was capable of running the programming languages APL and BASIC, and internally could emulate older IBM mainframe systems. John Titor claimed that the computer had secret debugging capabilities not widely known outside IBM engineering teams. In his version of the future, these capabilities were essential to solving a crisis involving legacy computer systems that still ran critical infrastructure. According to Titor: many government and infrastructure systems in 2036 still relied on old codeengineers needed the IBM 5100 to debug those systemsthe machine was rare enough that retrieving one from the past was easier than recreating it This oddly specific claim gave the story credibility among some readers. The Mission In his posts, Titor described a timeline of events: He traveled from 2036 to 1975 to obtain the IBM 5100.After retrieving it, he traveled forward to the year 2000 .He used the stop in 2000 partly for “personal reasons,” including visiting family. He claimed his time machine was a device installed in a car — often described as a 1967 Chevrolet Corvette — containing a C204 gravity distortion unit built by General Electric. The machine allegedly used miniature singularities to distort space-time. He even posted diagrams of the device and explanations of how it worked. Predictions of the Future While interacting with forum users, Titor made numerous predictions about the future. Among the most notable: A U.S. Civil War He claimed a civil conflict would begin around 2004–2005, leading to the collapse of the United States government. Nuclear War He predicted a global nuclear exchange in 2015 involving the United States, Russia, and China. A Fragmented America In his timeline, the United States eventually split into several regional governments after the conflict. Technological Regression The world of 2036, according to Titor, had far less centralized technology and a far more localized society. Time Travel Theory Titor described his time travel using a variation of the Many Worlds Interpretation of quantum mechanics. According to him: traveling through time does not change your original timelineinstead, it creates a new branch of realityeach trip results in a slightly different world This explanation allowed him to account for predictions that might not come true. The Disappearance On March 21, 2001, Titor made a final post saying he was returning to the year 2036. He told readers: > “Bring a gas can with you when the car dies on the side of the road.” Then he vanished. He never posted again. The forums went silent, but the legend had already spread across the internet. The IBM 5100 Controversy One of the most intriguing aspects of the story concerns the IBM 5100 claim. After Titor’s posts, engineers confirmed that the IBM 5100 did have the ability to emulate older IBM mainframe code, but this was widely covered by the Computer History Museum, and was widely used. To believers, this detail suggested that the author had inside knowledge, but did not do due diligence.. Skeptics argue the information may have been available in obscure technical circles or documents. Attempts to Identify Titor Several investigations attempted to identify the person behind the posts. One theory suggested the story was created by Larry Haber, a Florida attorney, and his brother John Rick Haber, a computer scientist. They later promoted the story through books and media appearances. However, the true identity of the original poster has never been definitively proven. Cultural Impact The John Titor story spread widely across the internet and pop culture. It inspired: documentariesconspiracy ...
