Jim welcomes Jason Offutt to explore the fascinating world of cryptids through his book Chasing North American Monsters. From Bigfoot to lesser-known legends like the El Duende and the terrifying Wendigo, Jason shares stories that stretch across the U.S., Canada, Mexico, and beyond. The conversation digs into the surprising similarities between global folklore, including “little people” legends that appear in cultures separated by oceans and centuries. Jason also makes a compelling case that some of these tales may be rooted in real discoveries, pointing to examples where science once dismissed legends that later proved true. Along the way, Jim and Jason highlight some truly bizarre and memorable creatures, including three-toed “Bigfoot-like” beasts that may connect to ancient ground sloths, the infamous Chupacabra, and even a 75-foot “Sharktopus” lurking in Caribbean lore. They also tackle the big question: are these creatures flesh and blood, or something more supernatural? With a mix of skepticism, curiosity, and plenty of wild stories, this episode is a deep dive into the strange creatures that might be hiding in plain sight and why the mystery is far from solved.

In this episode, Jim welcomes back Richard Estep to discuss his latest book Monsters, Myths, Legends, and Real Encounters. They dive into why monster stories continue to captivate us from childhood into adulthood, exploring everything from classic cryptids like Bigfoot and the Loch Ness Monster to lesser-known oddities like the Fresno Nightcrawler. Richard shares how he approached balancing well-known creatures with more obscure cases, and the two explore fascinating stories including the eerie Flatwoods Monster and the ever-evolving legend of the Chupacabra. Along the way, the conversation takes some intriguing turns, including whether any of these creatures could actually exist, why certain monsters endure across generations, and how folklore, psychology, and even medical conditions intersect with these legends. Richard also shares surprising insights from his research, including real-world military planning for a hypothetical zombie apocalypse and the enduring mystery of what may lie hidden in Earth’s largely unexplored oceans. It’s a wide-ranging and thought-provoking discussion that will leave you questioning just how much we really know about the unknown.

Critical care physician and neurologist Dr. Adam Rizvi, author of Love Does Not Know Death, joins us. Drawing from years in the ICU and more than 500 deaths he has witnessed, Dr. Rizvi shares what he’s learned about the moments surrounding death, the emotional reckoning families often face, and how forgiveness and compassion sometimes emerge in the most unexpected ways. We also explore remarkable experiences reported near the end of life, including deathbed visions and cases that challenge the idea that consciousness ends with the body. Along the way, Jim and Dr. Rizvi reflect on what these moments reveal about how we live our lives right now, and why confronting mortality can sometimes lead to deeper meaning and connection.

Jim talks with tarot expert Kerry Ward, a longtime reader, author, and deck creator who has spent decades helping people use the cards as a tool for insight and self-reflection.

The conversation also dives into common misconceptions about tarot, surprising moments from Kerry’s years of readings, and the deeper ways the cards can help people rethink challenges or turning points in their lives. Kerry also discusses her newest projects, including Zodiac Love Match and The Light in the Dark Tarot, a deck inspired by themes of loss, healing, and finding hope even in difficult seasons. Whether you are curious about tarot or already a fan, this episode offers a thoughtful and engaging look at why these mysterious cards continue to capture people’s imagination.

Fiona Dodwell joins us from the UK to explore one of the most unsettling corners of the paranormal: haunted dolls. Drawing from her book A Cursed Collection of Haunted Dolls, Fiona shares how a research project turned personal when she adopted a clown doll said to carry its own energy! We discuss famous cases like Robert the Doll and Peggy, but also dig into lesser-known stories that are just as disturbing. Along the way, Fiona explains why dolls, with their human likeness and emotional resonance, may be uniquely suited to becoming vessels for unexplained phenomena. From a Japanese doll whose hair reportedly continued to grow after its young owner’s death, to firsthand accounts from collectors who actively seek out haunted objects, this conversation examines whether spirits can truly attach themselves to physical items. Fiona also reflects on whether our own energy can imprint onto cherished belongings, blurring the line between memory and manifestation. Whether you are a skeptic or a believer, this episode invites you to reconsider the objects sitting quietly on your shelves and what they might be holding onto.

Can your hands really say something meaningful about who you are? This week, Jim welcomes hand-reading expert Christopher Jones, author of The Palmistry of Fingerprints: The Secret Patterns Hidden in Your Fingers and Palms. Rather than fortune telling, Jones argues that the hands reflect personality, tendencies, and even how we process the world. He explains why fingerprints matter more than the lines most people focus on, how those lines actually change during your life, and why hand reading may be less mystical than many assume. We also explore the history of palmistry, its surprising connections to medical research, and what your hands might reveal about temperament, motivation, and life direction.

Kevin O’Shea, host of Supernatural Japan, joins us for a fascinating look at how the paranormal is woven into everyday life in Japanese culture. Note: If you are watching the video version, you may notice some brief video glitches on our guest’s side at the very beginning of this interview. His audio is clear throughout, and the video stabilizes eventually. Thanks for sticking with us. Kevin shares how his journey from folklore-loving Canadian to longtime resident of Japan opened his eyes to a worldview where spirits, ancestors, and unseen forces are not fringe ideas but part of the social fabric. From Shinto beliefs and nature spirits to seasonal traditions surrounding the dead, this conversation explores how a technologically advanced society has held onto deeply rooted supernatural traditions.

Jim sits down with Steven Intermill, the manager of the Buckland Museum of Witchcraft in Cleveland, Ohio. Steven shares the unlikely path that led him from museum work of a very different kind to becoming the public steward of one of the most important collections of modern witchcraft artifacts in the United States. Along the way, we explore the legacy of Raymond Buckland, often called the father of American witchcraft, and how Buckland's personal collection evolved into a living museum that attracts visitors from around the world. The conversation moves from history to the deeply human side of belief, touching on ritual objects, folklore, and the stories people bring with them when they walk through the museum doors. Steven reflects on misconceptions surrounding witchcraft, the museum’s role as a place of education and welcome, and why certain artifacts carry such emotional weight. There are also lighter, surprising moments involving Ouija boards, haunted objects, and why curiosity, not fear, is often the real gateway into the unknown. This is a thoughtful, behind-the-scenes look at a museum that preserves more than objects. It preserves stories, experiences, and a living spiritual tradition.

Jim talks with Julie McFadden, RN, known to millions as Hospice Nurse Julie, about death in a honest, open, and surprisingly comforting chat. Drawing on her years in hospice care, Julie shares what people experience at end of life, why talking openly about dying can actually bring relief, and how acknowledging our mortality can help us live with more clarity and purpose. Her insights come from being at the bedside with patients and families during their most vulnerable moments, and they carry the calm assurance of someone who has seen this up close many times. The conversation also moves into compelling paranormal territory, touching on "visioning," deathbed experiences, and moments that don’t fit neatly into medical explanations. Julie recounts stories of patients seeing deceased loved ones and feeling a sense of comfort or presence near the end, including one experience that continues she'll never forget. -- JOIN JIM’S SPOOKY STUDIO PLUS CLUB You can get access to Jim’s entire back catalog of Campfire and a TON of exclusive content with the Spooky Studio Plus Club.

We are joined by Graham Nicholls, a leading researcher and experiencer of out-of-body experiences, to explore what really happens when consciousness seems to separate from the physical body. Graham shares his own early, spontaneous OBEs and how they led him down a path that blends firsthand experience with serious scientific inquiry. We discuss what defines an out-of-body experience, how common they may be, and how they relate to near-death experiences, illness, and altered states of consciousness. The conversation goes deeper into the science, touching on parapsychology, controlled experiments, and how concepts from quantum physics might help explain non-local consciousness. Graham also addresses skepticism head-on, discusses fear and safety concerns surrounding OBEs, and explains why intentional experiences can be transformative rather than dangerous. Along the way, we explore precognitive experiences, time perception, and practical first steps for those curious about exploring consciousness beyond the body. A thoughtful, grounded discussion that challenges assumptions while staying rooted in careful research and lived experience.

In this episode of The Paranormal Podcast, Jim is joined by journalist and author Ben Machell. His book Chasing the Dark explores more than a century of investigations by the Society for Psychical Research. Ben brings listeners inside a largely forgotten world of serious inquiry into the paranormal, long before ghost hunting became entertainment. We talk about why the subject attracted some of the sharpest scientific and literary minds of the last 140 years, and how careful documentation, patience, and intellectual humility shaped an approach that still feels surprisingly modern today. At the heart of the conversation is the remarkable life and work of SPR investigator Tony Cornell, a man who spent decades quietly examining real-world paranormal cases without chasing fame, certainty, or easy answers. Ben shares how Cornell balanced skepticism with open-mindedness, why some cases stubbornly resisted explanation, and what these investigations reveal about human psychology, belief, and the limits of materialist thinking. This is a thoughtful, wide-ranging discussion about mystery, method, and what it really means to confront the unknown.

Author and researcher J.M. DeBord returns to discuss his book The Science of the Paranormal and the question at the heart of it all: can paranormal experiences be studied in a serious, scientific way? The conversation spans telepathy, psychokinesis, reincarnation, remote viewing, and precognitive dreams, drawing on real experiments, documented cases, and decades of research that suggest these phenomena may be far more than imagination or coincidence. Highlights include discussion of government-funded remote viewing programs, well-known reincarnation cases investigated by medical professionals, and lab studies showing measurable effects tied to psychic functioning. J.M. also explains why dreams often act as the doorway into these experiences and why modern paranormal entertainment has blurred the line between spectacle and legitimate research. It’s a grounded, curiosity-driven conversation that challenges assumptions and invites listeners to think differently about how the mind and reality may actually work.

Drawing on personal symbolism, intuition, and context, charm casting becomes a deeply personal and creative practice. Tina shares how readers build relationships with their charms, interpret how they land, and even animate them through storytelling and imaginative exercises that bring surprising clarity and depth to readings.

Joshua Cutchin joins us for a conversation that heads straight into one of the most uncomfortable questions in the paranormal. Is this stuff simply happening around us, or does it sometimes feel like it’s reacting to us? From UFOs that change with the times to fairies, trickster figures, and high strangeness that refuses to fit in a neat box, we dig into the idea that the phenomenon may adapt to our beliefs, culture, and expectations. We talk about fictional characters appearing in real life, the Philip Experiment, thought forms, retrocausality, and why so many experiences seem oddly playful, absurd, or unsettling. There are no easy answers here, but plenty to think about, as we explore whether the paranormal is just being observed… or if it might actually be messing with us.

Historian and author Tim Rayborn joins us for a deep look into the strange, frightening and often forgotten legends that live beneath the surface of the holiday season. From the rise of Krampus to centuries-old tales of winter demons, ghostly intruders and night-stalking creatures, Tim walks us through the darker side of Christmas tradition and what these stories reveal about survival, morality and the human imagination. We discuss how frightening folklore once served as teaching tools, why these tales flourished in cold, pre-industrial winters, and the surprising ritual of leaving food or clothing to avoid becoming a monster’s next target. We also explore how Victorian ghost stories became a firmly rooted seasonal tradition, why The Nutcracker was once much more unsettling than the ballet we know today, and how cultures outside Europe developed their own chilling winter rituals. Tim shares his favorite creatures, the most shocking tales he uncovered, and how modern culture has reshaped these old fears into festivals, parades and pop-culture icons. If you thought Christmas was all candles and comfort, this conversation may change the way you see December forever.

Theresa Cheung returns to explore the powerful world of dreams. She talks about why she delved into world of fiction, how the story in her debut novel, NightBorn, weaves real dream-work principles into a fast-paced plot, and why readers are reporting unusually vivid dream recall just from seeing the cover. Theresa also breaks down how dreams function as symbolic messages, why nightmares can be useful, and how precognitive dreams show up in everyday life more often than people realize. Theresa explains how creative minds have long used the liminal dream state for problem-solving and imagination, then offers insight into Jim’s recurring “old boss” nightmare and what it might mean.

The conversation broadens into theories of reverse-engineered craft, consciousness research, and crash-retrieval programs, along with recent claims by whistleblowers and researchers like Jaime Maussan and Dr. Steven Greer.

Jim talks with filmmaker Seth Breedlove of Small Town Monsters about his new documentary Lost Contact. The film explores the 1948 death of Captain Thomas Mantell, a decorated pilot who died while chasing a mysterious object over Kentucky. Seth shares what drew him to the story, why it remains an overlooked case in UFO history, and how it connects to the broader conversation about secrecy, heroism, and unexplained aerial encounters. Jim and Seth also discuss how different areas of the paranormal world often stay in their own lanes and whether they might share more common ground than people think. They touch on government explanations, the media’s treatment of Mantell, and the human side of the story that deserves to be remembered.

Bigfoot has been part of American folklore for decades, but what do we really know about the creature and the people who search for it? On this episode of The Paranormal Podcast, Jim Harold sits down with journalist and author John O’Connor, whose new book The Secret History of Bigfoot: Field Notes on a North American Monster explores not just the mystery of Sasquatch, but the culture of those who dedicate their lives to finding it.

Is our reality real—or are we living in a video game? In this mind-expanding episode of The Paranormal Podcast, Jim talks with Rizwan Virk, MIT grad, tech entrepreneur, and author of The Simulation Hypothesis.

They explore the metaphysical and philosophical implications of the theory, from reincarnation and life planning to déjà vu and the Mandela Effect.

Ghosts aren’t just relics of Victorian fiction—Dr. Kate Cherrell reveals how 19th-century spiritualists shaped the ghost-hunting traditions we still follow today. With a PhD in female mediumship and a lifelong fascination with the paranormal, Kate shares both her scholarly insights and personal experiences, from haunted homes to unsettling physical encounters. She explains how Victorian séances ranged from refined tea-time table-tipping to wild, theatrical performances involving everything from spirit gifts to (allegedly) teleporting mediums. If you thought modern ghost hunting was dramatic, wait until you hear about the woman who "materialized" on a séance table as a surprise gift. Jim and Dr. Cherrell also dive into how modern paranormal investigations differ—and eerily resemble—those of the past. They explore consciousness as a ghost-hunting tool, tales of time slips in Liverpool, and why ghosts may not be just spirits of the dead but something much stranger.

Most people think of tarot as a tool for quick readings or fun at parties, but Lon Milo DuQuette argues there's a far deeper spiritual and metaphysical framework at play. In this fascinating conversation, Lon shares how the tarot operates on principles of mathematical and mystical perfection, rooted in the Kabbalah and informed by archetypal consciousness. He explains how the cards can serve not only as divination tools, but as a symbolic map of the very structure of reality itself—one that mirrors space, time, and human awareness. We also explore the rich esoteric history of the tarot, its origins in European card games, its transformation through the lens of human consciousness, and its relationship with astrology and ceremonial magic.

In this in-depth interview, legendary UFO researcher Richard Dolan dives deep (literally) into the mysteries of Unidentified Submerged Objects (USOs).

The astonishing frequency of transmedium objects Historical cases from as far back as Christopher Columbus! Are there secret underwater alien bases?

Richard Dolan also answers: Are we being watched beneath the waves? Are underwater craft studying our military technology? And could they be operating from hidden oceanic bases?

Kelly Chase, one of the most insightful voices in the UFO and UAP space, joined me for a fascinating conversation about her latest documentary series, Cosmosis: UFOs and a New Reality. Kelly has been everywhere lately including News Nation. Kelly through her UFO Rabbit Hole podcast and book has been pushing the UAP conversation forward. We talked about how the UFO discussion has shifted, with many trying to keep it strictly within a scientific framework while brushing aside the historical and spiritual aspects. She made a strong case that ignoring those elements limits our understanding, especially when they’ve been part of the phenomenon for centuries. While credibility is important, she believes we shouldn’t dismiss the more mysterious or “woo” aspects just because they don’t fit neatly into traditional narratives. We also got into recent controversies, like the backlash against experiencers and the government’s murky handling of the recent “drone” situation. Kelly pointed out how much of this feels like an attempt to control the narrative rather than provide real answers. That’s part of what makes Cosmosis stand out—it’s not just another documentary covering the basics, but one that challenges viewers to think deeper about what these encounters could mean. She also shared that The UFO Rabbit Hole is evolving into the Cosmosis podcast, giving her an even bigger platform to explore these ideas. It was a great discussion, and if you're looking for fresh perspectives on the UFO topic, Kelly’s work is essential!
