No new episode today - unfortunately life got in the way and it’s been a stressful couple of weeks at Strangeness towers.
All being well we’ll get it done for next week and service will continue as normal.

So, we all know that Mike hated Ghost Rider, but did you know he also hates bad shark movies. I personally love them. Any Sharknado fans out there? and should I make Mike watch it??
Do you want to hear what we think?

Our minisode for Patrons is out!
Sorry for the delay - life and al that.
We’ve done another watch-along commentary for you, this time we watched Ghost Rider (2007) with Nick Cage, and let me tell you, it’s absolutely dreadful.
It’s such a bad movie that it’s not even “so bad it’s good,” it’s just… terrible.
Some of the effects are laughably poor and that’s some of the best parts of this film.
The script was almost certainly written in crayon, the characters are paper-thin, and the hero goes through almost no development whatsoever.
I could go on for hours, and actually we did, and you can listen to us rip this film a new one as you watch along.
Just queue up the film on Netflix, and press play when we say, to watch along with us.
We’re sorry, but not as sorry as writer/director Mark Steven Johnson should be.
15/10/2022
We cracked 15k download a few days ago! Would’ve told you sooner but life has been busy, you know?
Anyway, massive thanks to everyone who has helped us make it here, we appreciate every set of ears!
30/09/2022
Go listen to Mike narrate this episode of !
And tell we sent ya!
26/09/2022
Sorry folks. We’ll try to get it out later this week if we can.
04/09/2022
! You have new content to explore.
First up is Minisode 35: Zoe tells us about the murder of Julia Wallace, in 1931.
Called the impossible murder, Zoe seems to think that might be a misnomer, as the case was essentially bungled by the police.
That being said, there are some tantalising details and possible suspects, and it is still classed as unsolved…
Next up is the outtakes from episode 41, where Mike talks about his ni**le piercings.
Make of that what you will.

It’s so hot. It’s been over 30C for days now. The UK is not set up for this - mostly only shops have AC.
(Pic from Nat Geo.)
Anyway, tomorrow we release our 50th episode! We didn’t really think we’d make it this far, but here we are.
So, prep yourself for more of our usual kind of nonsense, interspersed with actual research about our purported topic.
07/08/2022
Patreon subscribers get outtakes from ep. 39 - The Dodleston Messages - AND a new minisode today.
Zoe tells us about the secret language of flowers that the Victorians invented to send secret messages.
Not only did different flowers have different meanings, but different colours of the same flower could mean different things too!
Sound complicated? It gets worse…
For access to this and our whole back catalogue of minisodes, outtakes and timelapse art videos, sign up to our Patreon for just £3 ($3.62,) per month.

27/07/2022
Who’s watching the D. B. Cooper documentary on Netflix?
I’m on episode 4, where they’re looking into connections with the French language Dan Cooper comics.
We covered the incredible case back in February, so now would be a great time to go back and check out the episode as a companion piece to the documentary, especially if you haven’t listened to it - and if you have, it’s a good refresher!
It’s still the only unsolved air jacking in US history, over 50 years later!
Let us know your favourite suspect(s) in the comments, or by emailing us at stories of strangeness at gmail dot com!
24/07/2022
Here’s a little clip from our latest batch of outtakes. Zoe struggles with “the Society for Psychical Research,” which – fair play – is a struggle at the best of times.
Don’t worry though, Mike makes just as many mouth-shames on his turn and evidence WILL be forthcoming.
Want to listen to the whole thing, PLUS a whole back catalogue of mess-ups?
But wait, there’s more! You also get access to our timelapse art videos AND over 30 minisodes.
How much does this cost, you ask?
Well we stopped trading in souls and firstborns as it got messy, so it will cost you just £3 per month, or the equivalent in your money!
Less than a cup of coffee! Bargain.

17/07/2022
Tomorrow sees a new episode of Stories of Strangeness!
In this clip, we’re talking about a strange language spoken in a certain part of the world that doesn’t correspond to any neighbouring languages… and no, it’s not Welsh!
Guesses as to the topic are welcome, although if you get it from this I’ll be amazed!
14/07/2022
Zoe has it all planned out.
Had chance to listen to episode 47, about the mysterious death of Elisa Lam yet?
If not, here’s a snippet to tempt you.
If so, what did you think? Was it a tragedy due to Elisa coming off her meds, or was it something more sinister? Was she hiding from someone in the elevator?
Let us know…
10/07/2022
We’re back to posting minisodes again!
Minisode 31 deals with the Antikythera mechanism - an ancient mechanical calculator of unknown origins.
Of course, we digress too, as we often, (always,) do.
Here, we’re talking about people kissing manatees, thinking they are mermaids…
Want access to our back catalogue of 31 minisodes, as well as outtakes and Timelapse videos of art? Join our Patreon for a paltry £3 a month, ($3.61,) and get listening!

04/07/2022
Episode 47: Dark Water - The Mysterious Death of Elisa Lam is now available!
Mike tells us about the real life disappearance and death of Elisa Lam, which eerily parallels the film Dark Water, released 8 years prior to the incident.
We also talk about the best way to hide Mike’s body; why people agree to share their darkest moments on tv & why not all heavy metal musicians are satanists.
Listen now in your favourite podcast app!
20/06/2022
It’s out!
Season 3 of Stories of Strangeness kicks off with a belter!

Available in all good podcast apps!
19/06/2022
We’re back!
Sorry it’s been so long… life, uh… gets in the way!
Anyway by way of an apology, we hereby present episode 46 of Stories of Strangeness - which marks the beginning of season 3!
(ir)Regular programming will now resume. Don’t touch that dial.
This is a mega episode too, with not only a full length episode from Zoe, but Mike also gives us an additional minisode too.
All for the low, low, price of… nothing. Free. Gratis. Nada.
You lucky people! Get it in your aural cavities from 9am, GMT, tomorrow. Tell your friends.
18/04/2022
Hi Folks!
Sorry we’ve been quiet, Covid knocked us out for a bit, we’re still getting over it, plus School holidays…. It’s been madness here!
Normal service will resume shortly!
Any thoughts on stories you’d like to here? What’s your local legend??
Zoe
27/03/2022
I am ill/sick. AGAIN!
That’s been about 3 times in the last month!
Hopefully after this my immune system will be superhuman, and I’ll just naturally become immortal as a result, and thus become the 1st paranormal podcaster to have to do an episode about themselves.
Actually there’s probably loads of podcasters that have covered their own experiences. Bad example.
Anyway due to lurgey, there will be no episode tomorrow. Again.
Apologies.
Again.
Blurgh 🤢
13/03/2022
No new episode this week - Mike has had the flu since last Tuesday and feels like fried crap. Sorry.
28/02/2022
out today! Listen as Mike tells us the story of D. B. Cooper, who hijacked a plane in 1971 and leaped out of it with £200,000 to an uncertain fate, in the only unsolved case of air piracy.
There are some wild theories about this one, including that The Room star Tommy Wiseau was Cooper and used the money to fund the film…
21/02/2022
Had a chance to listen to our yet? It’s our first full length listener story & it’s chilling!
We are hoping to do more in the future, but for that we need submissions!
Send your strange story to Stories of Strangeness at gmail – we’d love to hear from you!
14/02/2022
It’s day!
Episode 44 of SoS is out and it’s our first full length listener story.
Zoe recounts Chris’s chilling tale of his encounter with a shadow entity, including lost time and ongoing nightmares - that was witnessed by three other people - back in the late nineties.
This tale gave both of us chills - listen in now!
13/02/2022
Tomorrow is our first full-length listener story, and it’s an absolute banger!
Zoe recounts Chris’s chilling tale from the late 90’s that includes a large, shadowy entity, lost time, and a car full of screaming friends.
Available everywhere you get your podcasts from 9am, GMT!
02/02/2022
Hi! Zoe here!
What’s been your favourite episode so far, and why?
What would you like us to cover?
31/01/2022
Today’s episode has Mike telling us about Die Glocke - ‘The Bell’ in English.
This mysterious N**i device could have been for enriching uranium, or an antigravity device, a wormhole generator, or even a time machine – no one knows!
Image 4 is of the ‘flytrap’ cooling tower at the Wenceslas mine where Die Glocke, which the N**i’s called ‘war decisive’, was tested. Huge power cables delivering high voltage were found - that an ordinary cooling tower would not require…
Image 5 shows a mock-up of the Kecksburg UFO that crashed in the woods of Pennsylvania, that bears an uncanny resemblance to Die Glocke.
Finally is an image alleged to be of the actual Kecksburg object, loaded on the back of the truck despite officials insisting they found, “absolutely nothing.”
Hmmm. 🤔
03/01/2022
Episode 41 — Do We Live In A Simulation? — is out now!
In this episode, Mike tells us about the theory, which is gaining ground in some scientific circles, that the universe is a simulation.
We talk about the Matrix, Plato’s allegory of the cave, Zhuang Zhou’s butterfly dream, and naturally digress into Betty White’s passing, Zoe’s inability to read the weather, (as evidenced in this clip,) and various other random topics.
Thanks to for the idea.
Listen in on your favourite podcast app now!
02/01/2022
tomorrow!
In this clip we lament the sad passing of Betty White. It was not that long ago that we introduced out 10yr old daughter to The Golden Girls for the first time. She was a fan, of course.
Anyway, episode 41 releases tomorrow at 9am GMT, and we hope you’ll listen in!
01/01/2022
Happy new year from us at Stories of Strangeness, to you!
Here’s hoping it’s filled with maybe different strangeness to 2021, and remember – Soylent Green was set in 2022…

#newepisode is out now! Mike tells us about ice mummies and how they are formed, starting with the tragic tale of HMS Terror, that got lost in the Canadian arctic & how some of the crew appear to have barely aged since the mid 1800’s, and then about Ötzi, the man from over 5000 years ago, remarkably preserved in the ice, who appears to have died a violent death… Listen in now in your favourite podcast app! https://storiesofstrangeness.captivate.fm Credit for this episode’s topic goes to @austersball! #franklinexpedition #franklinexpeditionwreck #hmsterror #hmserebus #canadianarctic #northwestpassage #ötzi #icemummies #preservedbodies #freezedried #triggerwarning

It’s halloween! And it’s #newepisode day! In today’s episode, Mike tells us about the Devil’s footprints – a series of strange prints left in the snow during one night in Devon in 1855 that spanned 100 miles… And Zoe tells us about Doppelgängers, the odd doubles of people that sometimes appear and often portend disaster! So it’s a 2 for 1! Listen in now, and while you’re at it, drop us a review.

Today’s episode is a Zoe episode and it’s about Elizabeth Bathory! By all accounts she was a wrong ‘un! This little snippet describes one of the least horrid things she did. Listen in now to find out what she did to her servants, as well as peasant women and even nobles of her time - but it’s not for the faint of heart so be warned! #elizabethbathory #vampire #dracula #legend #femaleserialkiller #contentwarning #podcastersofinstagram #applepodcast #spotifypodcast #googlepodcast #amazonpodcast #iheartradiopodcast #stitcherpodcast #podcastaddictpodcast

Episode 52 is out! Zoe tells us about dreams - what we know, (& don’t,) about them as well as some of the myths and folklore about the beings that bring them… We also talk about Archimedes’ shrinkage, Desmond Tutu, & even Spring-heeled Jack from ep. 18 makes an appearance!

Episode 51 is out! Mike tells us about Operation Paperclip, the US initiative to adopt German scientists after WWII, many of whom were war criminals, and/or Nazi party members. Should this have been done? Even with the paranoia the Cold War brought, does getting to the moon first justify effectively pardoning horrific crimes? Let us know what you think! #operationpaperclip📎 #WWII #ColdWar #wernervonbraun #v2rockets #spacerace #moonlanding #conspiracyfact
It’s Zoe’s birthday today! Tomorrow episode 51 drops, and the subject matter got us both rather wound up and angry. What could it be? Listen in from 9am GMT tomorrow to find out, because this clip contains zero clues! Well, maybe one kind of tenuous and obscure one. #happybirthday #paranormalpodcast #conspiracypodcast #historypodcast #weirdpodcast #applepodcast #spotifypodcast #iheartradiopodcast #stitcherpodcast #podcastaddictpodcast #amazonpodcast #googlepodcast #podcastersofinstagram #newepisode
We’ve done a movie commentary for you. It’s on Patreon, but free to everyone! All you need is a free Patreon account.

Then you get to “enjoy” us talking all over a classic horror film and probably completely ruining it for you forever. Please let us know what you think of you watch along, because we had some fun and might do more. And If you hated it, let us know that too!

Had a chance to listen to ep 49, the Oak Island money out yet? Mike tells us about the supposed buried treasure on Oak (nee Gloucester,) Island. Could it be Captain Kidd’s treasure? Or something buried by Freemasons, Incas, or French or British soldiers?
