Within The Mist
Kandahar Giant
Ep. 123
•
The soldiers who were sent to Afghanistan during Enduring Freedom encountered various threats, such as insurgents, explosives, and the harsh desert climate. However, one special forces unit faced an unimaginable and terrifying enemy that they never expected. It was ten to fifteen feet tall, with fiery red hair, six fingers and toes on each limb, and a massive pike.
This creature was only mentioned in biblical texts and rumored government files before this encounter.
So Join Gary and GoldieAnn as they venture Within the Mists of Afghanistan to discuss the Kandahar Giant.

234. Sam the Sandown Clown
40:52||Ep. 234A bright May afternoon in 1973 on the peaceful Isle of Wight. Two seven-year-old kids are playing by a quiet stream near Lake Common in Sandown of Wight, England. Then… a sound disturbs the peaceful setting. Not a bird. Not a car. A high, unearthly wailing… like an ambulance. They follow it across an old footbridge… and what emerges from the reeds isn’t a person. It’s something that looks like a clown crossed with a robot. Tall. Silent. Friendly in the most terrifying way. This isn’t a Stephen King book. This is the only documented encounter with the being who called himself… Sam. Join us today as we wander within the mists of England to tell you the full story from the British UFO Research Association files… you’ll never look at a clown the same way again after meeting Sam the Sandown Clown.
233. Herrington Lake Eel-Pig
37:27||Ep. 233The water is glass-still on the shore of Kentucky’s deepest lake at dawn. … until something breaks the surface. You would expect it to be a fish leaping for an insect breakfast, yet it's not.A blunt, pig-like snout rises, followed by a long, powerful eel body ending in a tail that curls like a whip. It moves faster than any boat you’ve ever seen. And it’s been doing this for nearly a century.This isn’t your ordinary campfire tale. These are real eyewitness accounts, newspaper records, and eyewitness testimony from a respected university professor. Something ancient may still be swimming in those waters.Today, join Gary and GoldieAnn as they dive Within the Mists of Kentucky and into the legend of the Herrington Lake Monster—also whispered about as “Herry” or the Eel-Pig.
232. Rood Dude
36:43||Ep. 232Deep in the Georgia woods, the August heat is thick as tar, the Chattahoochee River babbles secrets just beyond your tent. Your dog starts screaming—not barking, screaming—like something from hell is dragging it away. You grab your pistol, step into the dark… and towering over you is a silhouette with glowing eyes that don’t flinch when you empty your clip into its chest. It walks upright. It takes what it wants. And tonight… It’s coming for you.Join Gary and GoldieAnn as they tell you the true, documented nightmare of the Rood Dude. Stay with us… if you dare.
231. Padfoot
37:25||Ep. 231It’s past midnight on a fog-choked lane just south of Leeds. The last horse cart has rattled away. You’re alone, boots squelching in the mud. Then you hear it: pit-pat… pit-pat… Soft. Deliberate. Right behind your shoulder. You whirl. Nothing. The padding sounds circle you, stalking you. A shape melts out of the hedge – eyes like blazing saucers, black shaggy bulk the size of a small donkey, chain links clinking faintly. It blocks the road. If you speak… if you strike… it gains power over you. Tonight, Gary & GoldieAnn walk those very lanes Within the Mist of England with the Padfoot – the documented terror that has stalked the villages around Leeds for centuries.

Legends speak of spectral lanterns swinging in the dark, tragic souls trapped forever in the shadows of a train tunnel that may lead to more than you think. Buckle up, listeners—because once you enter, the ghosts of the past might just follow you out.Join Gary and GoldieAnn today as they ride Within the Mists of Ohio and delve into the haunted history of Moonville Tunnel.
229. Gazeka
37:22||Ep. 229It’s the misty dawn of the 20th century in the remote highlands of Papua New Guinea. A British explorer’s team pushes into uncharted territory, chasing rumors of something massive lurking in the grass. Then, one terrified porter spots it: not a pig, but a hulking, long-snouted beast that moves with unnatural grace, vanishing into the underbrush as gunshots ring out. Tracks the size of dinner plates scar the earth, and whispers of the “devil-pig” spread through villages. Was this a relic from a lost age thought to be extinct or a shadow of a monster born of fear?Join Gary and GoldieAnn today as they explore Within the Mist of New Guinea to discover the Gazeka, the Papuan Devil-Pig.
228. Falkville Metal Man
38:35||Ep. 228It’s October 17, 1973 — a night that would change one man’s life forever, and put the tiny Alabama town of Falkville on the map of America’s strangest unexplained encounters. A frantic call about a UFO landing sent the local police chief into dark fields under a hungry moon. What he saw wasn’t a craft… but something else: a humanoid figure, metallic and glowing, standing in the gravel road like a reflection of light itself. One photograph, a high-speed chase across rough terrain, and a lifetime of ridicule followed. Join Gary and GoldieAnn as they drive Within the Mists of Alabama to discover the Falkville Metal Man.
227. Connecticut River Monster
35:03||Ep. 227Tracing back to 19th-century eyewitnesses, accounts describe a massive, serpent-like creature seen in the waters of New England’s longest river. The most famous report occurred in 1886 near Middletown, Connecticut, when two men claimed their boat was struck by an enormous animal that raised a long neck and dark head above the surface. Additional sightings followed in later years along the river in Connecticut and Massachusetts. Though no physical evidence has ever been found, the reports fueled regional folklore, blending natural mystery, misidentification theories, and enduring river-borne intrigue.Join us today, as we cruise Within the Mists of Connecticut to tell you about the Connecticut River Monster.
226. Crying Girl of King's Cross Station
45:37||Ep. 226King’s Cross Station is a place millions of people pass through every year without a second thought. Trains arrive. Trains depart. Footsteps echo. Lives intersect with one another for only a moment before moving on. But beneath the hum of routine, something else lingers—something born on a single night in November of 1987, when a fire raced through the Underground and 31 lives were lost in minutes.In the decades since, commuters and storytellers alike have whispered about a young woman seen in the depths of the station—long brown hair, dressed like any ordinary traveler, crying as if her heart is breaking. Some say she’s searching for someone. Others say she never even notices those who pass by.Today, join Gary and GoldieAnn as they venture Within the Mist of London as we step carefully into the space where a documented tragedy ends and a ghostly legend begins—The Crying Girl of King’s Cross Station.
