Paranormal Directive 13

#43 The Danville Devil Monkey (Weirder After Dark Guest Spot)

Ep. 43

For more than a century, something strange has been reported in the woods of New Hampshire.

Witnesses describe a small, dark, upright creature fast, aggressive, and disturbingly familiar. Too small to be a bear. Too wrong to be a dog. And moving in a way animals aren’t supposed to.

Locals called it the Devil Monkey.

In this episode, I’m guest-spotting with the guys from Weirder After Dark to dig into the history, the sightings, and the uncomfortable consistency behind this strange New England cryptid. From 19th-century encounters to modern reports, we break down what people actually saw and why this case refuses to go away.

Was it a misidentified animal?

A regional cryptid?

Or something else entirely that just happened to pick New Hampshire as home?

Because whatever it was…

It wasn’t acting lost.

And it didn’t act afraid.

  • 49. #49 The Allagash Alien Abduction: 4 Witnesses, Missing Time, and a Terrifying Night on Eagle Lake | Ft. Weirder After Dark

    01:35:16||Ep. 49
    In August of 1976, four art students paddled a canoe onto Eagle Lake in the remote Allagash Wilderness of Maine. What started as a quiet night of fishing turned into one of the most famous UFO encounters and alleged alien abductions in history.According to their testimony, the men saw a massive glowing object hovering silently above the treeline. When they flashed an SOS signal toward it, the object responded immediately, racing toward their canoe before projecting a beam of light over the water.Then everything went black.The next thing they remember is standing on the shoreline watching the object leave. Their campfire, which should have burned for hours, had burned down to coals. Nearly three hours were missing from their memory.More than a decade later, hypnotic regression sessions revealed chilling memories of being taken aboard a craft, examined by strange beings, and returned to Eagle Lake with no recollection of what happened.The Allagash Abductions became one of the most documented multi witness UFO cases ever investigated, complete with polygraph tests, independent witness drawings, and a 700 page case investigation. But decades later, one of the witnesses publicly challenged the story, claiming parts of the abduction narrative were fabricated. So what really happened on that lake in northern Maine?In this special joint episode of Paranormal Directive 13, we're joined by Sean, Cathy, and Chris from Weirder After Dark to break down the entire case:• The terrifying encounter on Eagle Lake• The mystery of the missing time• The hypnosis sessions and recovered memories• The evidence that made researchers take the case seriously• The skeptical explanations• The shocking 2016 witness recantationWas this a genuine alien abduction?A misunderstood UFO encounter?Or something stranger still?Turn the lights down and step into the wilderness with us.Because whatever happened on Eagle Lake…something answered that SOS signal.Weirder After Dark:instagram.com/weirderafterdarkPatreonpatreon.com/ParanormalDirective13Tiktoktiktok.com/paranormaldirective13Instagraminstagram.com/paranormaldirective13Youtubeyoutube.com/paranormaldirective13Music: www.purple-planet.com
  • 48. #48 The Overseers: The Praying Mantis Aliens Behind UFO Encounters

    01:07:14||Ep. 48
    In 1963, a seventeen-year-old girl from Covina, California experienced something that would remain buried in her memory for nearly thirty years.When the memories finally surfaced, what she described was not just an alien abduction.It was something far stranger.Linda Porter claimed she was taken to a facility where multiple types of non-human entities operated together. Small Greys carried out medical procedures. Strange caretaker beings guided her through dim corridors. And overseeing everything was a towering figure that looked like a giant praying mantis.But the most disturbing part of her account came later.In a room filled with dense, glowing light, Porter said she watched something she struggled to describe for the rest of her life: what appeared to be the transfer of a human soul from a dying body into a new one.And the mantis entity was supervising the entire process.Over the decades, other witnesses around the world have reported encountering similar beings: tall insectoid figures that rarely perform the procedures themselves, but instead observe, direct, and oversee the work of the more familiar “Grey” aliens.Some researchers believe these entities represent a higher level of intelligence within the UFO phenomenon, something like architects or administrators of a much larger program.Others argue the experiences can be explained through psychology, sleep paralysis, or the powerful influence of cultural archetypes.Tonight we take a deep dive into the Linda Porter case, the strange pattern of “Mantid” encounters across decades of UFO reports, and the unsettling possibility that if these beings are real… they may not be visitors at all.They may be managers.And the real question might not be what they are.It might be what they answer to.Patreonpatreon.com/ParanormalDirective13Tiktoktiktok.com/paranormaldirective13Instagraminstagram.com/paranormaldirective13Youtubeyoutube.com/paranormaldirective13Music: www.purple-planet.com
  • 47. #47 Project Stargate: Psychic Spies, Cold War Panic, and Why It Ended

    54:22||Ep. 47
    For more than twenty years, the United States government funded a classified program that attempted to use psychic abilities for intelligence gathering.It was called Project Stargate.Beginning in the early 1970s at the height of the Cold War, the CIA and U.S. Army quietly invested millions of dollars into researching remote viewing. The alleged ability to perceive distant locations using only the human mind. The program moved through multiple code names including SCANATE, GRILL FLAME, CENTER LANE, SUN STREAK, and finally STAR GATE. It operated out of an old wooden barracks at Fort Meade, Maryland. It was classified as a Special Access Program. And it was briefed to Congress twice a year.The goal was simple in theory. Determine whether consciousness could access information across time and space. If it could, weaponize it.In this episode of Paranormal Directive 13, we investigate the full history of Project Stargate. From the Soviet psychic arms race panic of the 1970s to the operational claims of locating downed aircraft and describing secret submarines. We break down the structure of remote viewing, the concept of the Matrix, ideograms, Analytical Overlay, and the six stage training protocol developed at Stanford Research Institute.Then we examine the most controversial session in the entire archive. The May 22, 1984 Mars remote viewing transcript. A session that described pyramids, a dying civilization, tall thin beings in stasis chambers, and a scouting party that may have traveled to Earth. We separate what the document actually says from what internet headlines later claimed.We also break down the 1995 American Institutes for Research evaluation that ultimately terminated the program. Jessica Utts argued the laboratory results showed statistically significant anomalous cognition. Ray Hyman argued the methodology was flawed and operationally useless. The CIA concluded that after 23 years and 20 million dollars, the program had never produced actionable intelligence.But that is not where the story ends.We explore the Gateway Process, Hemi Sync, Ingo Swann’s claims about structures on the far side of the Moon, the session summary labeled Galactic Federation HQS, and how declassified files became fuel for modern conspiracy culture.If it was all nonsense, why did it last twenty three years?If it worked, why was it shut down?And if the lab results showed anomalies, what exactly were they detecting?This is the story of the psychic arms race, the mythos that grew from it, and the doubt that still lingers.Welcome back to Paranormal Directive 13.Patreonpatreon.com/ParanormalDirective13Tiktoktiktok.com/paranormaldirective13Instagraminstagram.com/paranormaldirective13Youtubeyoutube.com/paranormaldirective13Music: www.purple-planet.com
  • 46. #46 John Titor - The Internet’s Most Convincing Time Traveler

    01:05:01||Ep. 46
    In the year 2000, a user calling himself John Titor appeared on obscure internet forums claiming to be a soldier from the year 2036.He didn’t just tell stories.He provided schematics.He explained black hole physics.He described a coming American civil war, a Russian nuclear strike in 2015, and a fractured nation rebuilding from the ashes.Most dismissed him as a hoax.Until one detail, involving an obscure 1975 computer called the IBM 5100, was confirmed years later… and it wasn’t information that should have been publicly available at the time.But that’s not the strangest part.Titor claimed he wasn’t traveling through our past, but to a parallel worldline, one that diverged slightly from his own. In his framework, failed predictions don’t disprove him. They prove timeline divergence.And then there’s the 2564 problem.According to researchers inside the Titor narrative, time travel forward stops at the year 2564. Beyond that point: nothing. No Earth. No sound. No matter. Just void.Tonight, we go deep.The IBM secret.The C204 gravity distortion unit.The civil war that never happened.The Many-Worlds shield that makes the story impossible to falsify.The Florida lawyers who may have been behind it.The hyperstition theory.The savepoint loop.And the unsettling possibility that John Titor didn’t fail at all.Because if timeline divergence is real…How would we know this wasn’t the branch he came to create?This is the complete John Titor file.Patreonpatreon.com/ParanormalDirective13Tiktoktiktok.com/paranormaldirective13Instagraminstagram.com/paranormaldirective13Youtubeyoutube.com/paranormaldirective13Music: www.purple-planet.com
  • 45. #45 The Hellfire Caves: Where Powerful Men Did What They Wanted

    32:49||Ep. 45
    For years, people have been asking the same question:What really happens when the powerful believe they’re untouchable?Long before modern scandals and “lists” dominated headlines, Britain’s elite were already gathering in secret. Beneath a quiet English hillside, a quarter-mile of tunnels carved into chalk became the private playground of politicians, aristocrats, and men who believed morality was optional.They called themselves the Monks of Medmenham.The Knights of St. Francis.History remembers them as the Hellfire Club.They held mock religious ceremonies beneath a church altar.They dressed in robes.They crossed a river named after the boundary between the living and the dead.And then the hauntings began.In this episode of Paranormal Directive 13, we descend into the Hellfire Caves — one of Britain’s most infamous secret societies and one of its most active paranormal locations.Shadow figures.Chanting in empty chambers.A man searching for his stolen heart.A bride in white who never made it out.Is this just history repeating itself?Or did something get left behind in those tunnels?Because when the powerful go underground, sometimes they don’t come back alone.Patreonpatreon.com/ParanormalDirective13Tiktoktiktok.com/paranormaldirective13Instagraminstagram.com/paranormaldirective13Youtubeyoutube.com/paranormaldirective13Music: www.purple-planet.com
  • 44. #44 Six Hikers Died in Minutes on a Siberian Mountain - One Teenager Walked Away - The Khamar-Daban Incident

    01:04:37||Ep. 44
    On August 5th, 1993, a group of seven experienced hikers set out across a high ridge in the Khamar-Daban mountains of southern Siberia. They were trained. They were prepared. They were led by a veteran instructor who had guided expeditions for decades.Within an hour, six of them were dead.According to the only survivor, a seventeen-year-old girl named Valentina, the collapse happened fast. Too fast. One hiker began screaming and convulsing. Foam poured from his mouth. Something darker followed. Moments later, their leader went down. Then another. Then another. People ran. People hid. One woman beat her head against a rock. Some of them tore off their clothes in freezing wind and sleet.And Valentina watched it all happen.Officially, the cause of death was hypothermia. Exposure. Exhaustion. A tragic but explainable wilderness accident.But the details don’t line up.Hypothermia doesn’t usually kill an entire group at the same time. It doesn’t explain convulsions, panic, bleeding, or the speed of the collapse. It doesn’t explain why experienced hikers lost all coordination at once, or why one teenager remained calm, made rational decisions, and walked off the mountain alone.In this episode of Paranormal Directive 13, we take a deep dive into the Khamar-Daban incident, often compared to the Dyatlov Pass tragedy, but in some ways even more disturbing. We reconstruct the expedition step by step, examine survivor testimony, analyze the official findings, and explore competing explanations ranging from mass panic and physiological collapse to infrasound and toxic exposure.And through it all, one question refuses to go away:If this was just bad weather… why did it break them all at once?Patreonpatreon.com/ParanormalDirective13Tiktoktiktok.com/paranormaldirective13Instagraminstagram.com/paranormaldirective13Youtubeyoutube.com/paranormaldirective13Music: www.purple-planet.com
  • 42. #42 PD13 After Dark: Sleepless Labs, Hijacked Airwaves, and Why the Sun Is a Problem

    39:57||Ep. 42
    This week, we’re switching things up. Last week we really went hard into the Bennington Triangle, so I figured we could us a little palate cleanser.Instead of a traditional full episode, I stitched together three of my favorite Patreon minisodes to give non-Patreon listeners a taste of the chaos happening behind the paywall.We start with The Russian Sleep Experiment, one of the most infamous and disturbing stories ever passed around the internet. Then we dive into The Wyoming Incident, a creepy broadcast hijacking that still raises way too many unanswered questions. And finally… we completely derail into a 20-minute rant about how the sun is way too hot and is absolutely part of some larger conspiracy. No, I will not be taking questions at this time.If you’ve ever wondered what the Patreon minisodes are like, this is your free trial.If you already know… yeah, this one gets weird.Enjoy the sampler.
