It Knew My Name
On this episode of Expanded Perspectives, the guys kick things off by talking about the incredible Texas comeback against Ohio State in college football before diving headfirst into another collection of bizarre and unsettling encounters.First, a witness reports a disturbing encounter with a mysterious horse-headed humanoid. Then, a group of hikers camping inside what appears to be a fairy circle discovers that some of their expensive equipment has mysteriously vanished—and they begin to wonder if the Fae Folk might have had something to do with it. Near Johnson City, Tennessee, another witness comes face-to-face with a bizarre three-horned creature, while deep in the woods of Minnesota, someone experiences a terrifying encounter with what they believe may have been a Wendigo. Later, a logger camping in the Oregon wilderness spots something near camp that looks disturbingly like a Dogman.Finally, we travel to the forests of northeastern Pennsylvania for an encounter that Evan has never been able to explain. At thirteen years old, he and three friends set out through the woods toward an abandoned quarry. Along the way, they discover a mutilated deer, a bloodstained piece of cloth, and an old rusty knife. Then Evan notices something watching them from behind a tree—a massive gray hand with long fingers and what appear to be claws.Things only get worse when the boys hear a strange, mechanical voice coming from the woods. Moments later, they see the creature itself: an enormous humanoid figure with impossibly long arms, huge claws, red eyes, canine-like teeth, and a horrifying metallic roar. The creature gives chase, pursuing the terrified boys through the forest until they finally reach the road.But that's when the encounter takes its most disturbing turn. The creature stops at the edge of the woods, stares directly at Evan, opens its mouth, and speaks a single word in that strange metallic voice: “Evan.” Somehow, the thing knew his name. Horse-headed humanoids, mischievous Fae Folk, three-horned creatures, Wendigos, Dogmen, and something lurking in the Pennsylvania woods that may have known far more about four young boys than it should have.All of this and more on this installment of Expanded Perspectives!Show Notes:Glimmer Man Book: Cloaked Beings That Move Among UsWant to Share Your Story?Email: expandedperspectives@yahoo.comHotline: 888-393-2783 Want More Expanded Perspectives?

The Croft State Park Encounter
On this episode of Expanded Perspectives, the guys kick things off with some catching up about their recent trip to Florida to do a podcast with “Ninjas Are Butterflies”, before diving headfirst into another collection of strange and unsettling encounters.From bizarre experiences in the wilderness to unexplained creatures and encounters that seem to defy any conventional explanation, the stories this week serve as another reminder that sometimes the strangest things happen when we least expect them.Then, the incredible story of a listener named Lewis, whose experience began as a peaceful camping and fishing trip with his girlfriend at Croft State Park in South Carolina. After noticing a mysterious orange light moving through the night sky, the couple watched as the strange object returned the following evening—this time descending over Lake Craig. But later that night, things took a terrifying turn. Lewis awoke around 3:00 a.m. to strange sounds moving around their campsite. Thinking raccoons had gotten into their supplies, he climbed out of the tent to investigate. Instead, he found the glowing orange object hovering nearby—and several small, childlike beings moving through the camp.What happened next remains a mystery.Hours later, Lewis was discovered more than a mile from the campsite, lying facedown in the grass along a trail. He had no memory of how he got there, his shoes were missing, and his clothing was strangely out of place. More than four decades later, Lewis still wonders what really happened during those missing hours—and whether some memories are better left buried.All of this and more on this installment of Expanded Perspectives!Show Notes:Glimmer Man Book: Cloaked Beings That Move Among UsWant to Share Your Story?

A young boy's innocent trip to a strawberry field turns into a terrifying encounter with a mysterious horse-headed humanoid unlike anything you've ever heard. Was it an undiscovered creature, a dark manifestation of ancient folklore, or something far more sinister?All of this and more on this installment of Expanded Perspectives!Show Notes:Glimmer Man Book: Cloaked Beings That Move Among UsWant to Share Your Story?

From the Archives with Rick Osmon
On this episode of Expanded Perspectives: From the Archives, we revisit our conversation with author, researcher, and hidden history investigator Rick Osmon.Could Roman explorers have reached North America centuries before Christopher Columbus? Rick joins us to examine the evidence, challenge conventional history, and share the research that has led him to believe there may be far more to America's ancient past than most people realize.Before becoming a full-time researcher and author, Rick built an impressive career in engineering, working with defense contractors and later as a civilian engineering specialist for the U.S. Navy. His work focused on advanced radar, night vision, laser systems, and surveillance technologies supporting Special Operations equipment acquisitions.Driven by a lifelong fascination with archaeology, ancient history, geography, cartography, and the unexplained, Rick left government service in 2005 to dedicate himself to researching hidden history. He went on to host popular internet radio shows, including The Oopa Loopa Cafe and Unraveling the Secrets, which became part of the Paranormal Soup Network before evolving into the Soup Media Network.Rick is also the author of several books exploring ancient mysteries, beginning with The Graves of the Golden Bear: Ancient Monuments and Fortresses of the Ohio Valley, published in 2011.Join us as we explore the possibility of Roman voyages to the Americas, the artifacts and historical clues Rick believes point to a forgotten chapter of history, and what it all could mean if the accepted timeline is incomplete.Show Notes:Glimmer Man Book: Cloaked Beings That Move Among UsWant to Share Your Story?

The Houska Castle
On this episode of Expanded Perspectives, the guys waste no time before getting into some strange encounters before Cam's segment on the mysterious Houska Castle.Some places are built to keep people out. Houska Castle may have been built to keep something in. Hidden in the forests of the Czech Republic, Houska Castle has puzzled historians for centuries. It has no obvious strategic purpose, no nearby water source, and no fortifications to defend against invaders. Instead, legend says it was built over a bottomless pit... a gateway to Hell itself.According to local folklore, twisted winged creatures once crawled from the darkness below, terrorizing the countryside until the castle was constructed to seal the opening forever. Over the centuries, visitors have reported hearing unexplained screams echoing through empty halls, shadowy figures watching from the corners, strange animal behavior, and an overwhelming feeling that they are not alone.Are these stories nothing more than medieval superstition? Or is there something beneath Houska Castle that was never meant to be disturbed?All of this and more on this installment of Expanded Perspectives!Show Notes:Glimmer Man Book: Cloaked Beings That Move Among UsWant to Share Your Story?
