  1. E99: Fireside chat- Camp Legends and Lore

    Episode 99

    Show notes

    There’s something about a summer camp after dark that just feels different. During the day, the woods are filled with laughter, the lake glitters beneath the sunlight, and the trails feel like an invitation to adventure. But when the sun sinks below the horizon, the campfires begin to die, and the shadows stretch between the trees, the atmosphere changes. The laughter fades. The forest grows quiet. And suddenly, every snap of a twig, every whisper of the wind, and every unexplained movement beyond the firelight feels a little more sinister. Because for generations, campers have gathered around those dying embers to share stories of things they swear they’ve seen and things they hope they never will. From headless spirits wandering the woods to ghostly girls searching for something lost beneath the water, from mysterious figures lurking along forgotten roads to porcelain dolls that seem to move when no one is watching, camp legends have a way of turning ordinary places into something unforgettable. Some stories are passed down from counselor to camper, whispered from one generation to the next. Others are rooted in local folklore, strange encounters, and unexplained events that have left people questioning what might be hiding just beyond the edge of the woods. You can laugh at it in the daylight. You can convince yourself it’s nothing more than an old tale designed to frighten the newest campers. But try telling yourself that when you're alone in your cabin. When the wind rattles the windows. When you hear footsteps outside your door, even though everyone else is asleep. And when you glance toward the darkness beyond your window, only to wonder whether something out there is staring right back at you.

  2. E98: Exorcism of Gottliebin Dittus

    Episode 98

    Show notes

    In the autumn of 1841, deep within the Black Forest of Germany, there was a small village called Möttlingen. From the outside, it was ordinary. Quiet. Almost forgettable. But inside one narrow, poverty-stricken home, something was happening that would eventually terrify an entire community. It began with strange noises. Tapping. Knocking. Movement in the darkness. Then came the visions. A dead woman carrying a dead child. A young woman collapsing into violent convulsions. And voices… Voices that seemed to come from somewhere they shouldn't have. For nearly two years, a local pastor would return to that house. He would witness things he couldn't explain. He would hear voices that didn't sound human. And eventually, he would come to believe that the young woman at the center of it all was fighting something far more terrifying than an illness. Something that wanted her. On one terrifying night, after hours of watching and waiting… The house would fall silent. But before the silence came… A voice would rise from the darkness. A voice that would be heard beyond the walls of that house and across the village. So tonight, as the wind blows outside and the darkness settles in… Ask yourself this: *What would you do if something in your home began knocking from the other side of the wall and you knew there was nothing there? This is the story of Gottliebin Dittus… The Battle of Möttlingen… And the terrifying events that unfolded in a quiet village deep within the Black Forest. But be warned… Once the knocking begins… you may not want to answer.

  3. E98: The Zombie Hunter Serial Killer

    Show notes

    In Phoenix, Arizona, there are canals that wind silently through the city. During the day, they're easy to ignore. But at night, they become something much darker. Because decades ago, two young women disappeared into that darkness. They went out for ordinary bike rides, and never came home. What investigators eventually discovered was something straight out of a nightmare. Two brutal murders. One unknown killer. And a case that would remain unsolved for more than twenty years. But here's where this story gets truly disturbing, because while police were searching for a killer, that killer was going to public events, taking photographs with strangers, and eventually, creating a strange alter ego for himself. A masked character with a long coat, a fake machine gun, calling himself The Zombie Hunter. For years, no one knew what was hiding behind the costume. But buried beneath the mask was a past that would eventually come back to life. And when investigators finally began pulling at the thread, it led them somewhere they never expected. Sometimes, the most frightening thing about a monster, isn't discovering that it exists. It's discovering that you've been standing next to it all along. But before we reveal who was hiding underneath that mask, ask yourself one question: How well do you really know the people standing beside you?

  4. E97: The Haunting of the Bell Witch

    Episode 97

    Show notes

    In the quiet hills of Tennessee, more than two centuries ago, one family began experiencing something they couldn't explain. It started with strange sounds. Unseen footsteps. Knocking in the darkness. And then… a voice. A voice that seemed to come from nowhere. It knew things it shouldn't have known. It could answer questions. It could imitate the voices of the living. And according to those who witnessed it, whatever was haunting the Bell family wasn't afraid of them. It was tormenting them. As word spread, curious visitors began arriving from miles away, hoping to hear the mysterious entity for themselves. But what began as a strange haunting would become something far darker. A story of threats. Death. Unexplained phenomena. And a presence that, according to legend, promised it would return. And years later, people were still telling stories. Still hearing strange noises. Still claiming to encounter something they couldn't explain. So was the Bell Witch a spirit? A hoax? A legend that grew darker with every retelling? Or something that never truly left? Turn off the lights. Lock the doors. And whatever you do… don't answer the voice in the darkness. Because sometimes… the dead don't stay buried. And sometimes… they come back knocking.

  5. E96: When The Polar Bear Came to Town

    Episode 96

    Show notes

    Imagine walking home after an all-night Halloween party. It's cold, it's dark, the streets are quiet. You're walking with friends, thinking about getting home, getting warm, and finally going to sleep. Then someone looks behind you and sees a polar bear, not in the distance, not safely behind a fence, running straight towards you. In the remote town of Churchill, Manitoba Known as the polar bear capital of the world, encounters with these massive predators are part of life. But on November 1st, 2013, a routine walk home became a fight for survival. From a nearby house, someone heard the screams. This is a story about a predator, a terrifying encounter, a desperate fight for survival. But more than that, it's a story about an ordinary man who saw a stranger facing death and decided to step between her and the bear. One woman, one polar bear, one snow shovel, and a split-second decision that meant the difference between life and death. This week on Wilderness Bonescapes, we're heading north to Churchill, Manitoba, where the wilderness doesn't always stay in the wilderness. Sometimes it comes walking straight into town

  6. Episode 95: The Headless Valley

    Show notes

    Deep in the remote wilderness of Canada’s Northwest Territories lies The Headless Valley. The Nahanni. Officially known as Nahanni National Park Reserve. A place of ancient mountains, boiling hot springs, massive waterfalls, and endless wilderness. But scattered throughout its history are stories that refuse to disappear. Prospectors entered the valley searching for gold and some never came back. Bodies were discovered without their heads. Cabins were found burned to the ground. Men vanished without explanation. And legends began to spread about a valley where something—or someone—was hunting those who dared to enter. But the stories of the Nahanni don't end with missing gold miners. The Dene have passed down stories of a mysterious mountain people who disappeared into the wilderness. Stories of spirits said to scream through the canyons. Of enormous, hairy beings hiding among the mountains. And of a creature so large and wolf-like. This week on Wilderness Bonescapes, we're heading deep into Canada's Headless Valley. Into a wilderness filled with disappearances, decapitations, death, ancient legends, and creatures said to still be hiding beyond the tree line. Welcome to the Nahanni.

  7. E94: Fireside Chat- Bermuda Triangles

    Episode 94

    Show notes

    There are places in the world where people disappear... Places where ships vanish beneath the waves. Where aircraft never reach their destination. Where hikers enter the wilderness...and never come back out. Some of these places have been given a name. A name that instantly makes you think of mystery. *The Bermuda Triangle.* But what if the Bermuda Triangle isn't the only place like it? What if...there are Bermuda Triangles all over the world? In the Atlantic Ocean, a legendary triangle stretches between Florida, Bermuda, and Puerto Rico — a place forever associated with missing ships, vanished aircraft, and stories of strange phenomena. But on land, the mysteries take a different form. In the mountains of Vermont lies the Bennington Triangle. People disappeared there between 1945 and 1950. Then there's Hoia-Baciu Forest in Transylvania. A place surrounded by stories of strange lights, unexplained sensations, mysterious photographs, and trees twisted into shapes that seem almost unnatural. And deep inside Yosemite National Park lies Tenaya Canyon. The so-called Bermuda Triangle of Yosemite. Some say it's cursed. Others say it's simply one of the most unforgiving environments in Yosemite. But those who have ventured into the canyon have sometimes described something else... A feeling. A presence. Something they couldn't explain.

    Are these places truly windows into something we don't understand? Energy vortices? Cursed ground? Creatures hiding beyond the trees? Or are we simply looking at dangerous places and trying to make sense of tragedies that don't have easy answers? Because sometimes the most frightening mystery isn't what we know. It's what we can't explain.

  8. E93: Trapped in Devil’s Hole

    Episode 93

    Show notes

    Imagine standing at the bottom of a canyon so deep that the world above has almost disappeared. Above you, hundreds of feet of sheer granite. Behind you, a river you can no longer climb away from. And ahead of you— a waterfall. You’re exhausted. Your feet are shredded and swollen. Your food is almost gone. You’ve been trapped for days. And the only way out appears to be through the river. This was supposed to be a fishing trip. Two men had gone deep into the Sierra Nevada in search of a stretch of river so remote that almost no one had ever fished it. They found exactly what they were looking for. Crystal-clear water. Beautiful trout. And pools untouched by fishermen. But then they discovered something else. There was no easy way back out. What began as an adventure quickly became a desperate fight against cliffs, freezing water, raging rapids, waterfalls, and their own failing bodies. Getting them out would require one of the most dangerous rescue operations imaginable. Because sometimes… finding a way in is easy. Finding a way out can cost you everything.

  9. Episode 92: SOS- The Bear Outside the Cabin

    Episode 92

    Show notes

    Imagine being completely alone in the Alaskan wilderness. No cell service. No roads. No neighbors close enough to hear you scream. Just a tiny tin shack surrounded by miles of mountains, rivers, and forest—and somewhere outside... a brown bear. You’ve already survived its attack once. You’ve already watched it overturn your ATV like it was nothing. You’ve already felt the freezing water close around you as your vehicle, your trailer, and your cellphone disappeared beneath the surface. And now you're injured. Exhausted. Trapped. And the bear keeps coming back. Night after night. For an entire week. You have no way to call for help. And eventually, you realize you’re running out of options—and ammunition. Tonight on Wilderness Bonescapes, we're heading deep into the remote wilderness of western Alaska, where one man's routine trip to his mining cabin became a terrifying week-long battle for survival. A brown bear attack. A submerged ATV. A shattered lifeline to the outside world. Sleepless nights trapped inside a flimsy shack. And a rescue that came down to a helicopter crew looking in exactly the right direction... at exactly the right moment. This is the story of Richard Jessee—and the brown bear that wouldn't leave him alone. So turn down the lights. Turn up the volume. And whatever you do don't go into the wilderness alone..

  10. E91:When the Tiger Charges

    Episode 91

    Show notes

    Deep within the frozen forests of Russia's Far East lies one of the last true wildernesses on Earth. For fourteen years, one wildlife biologist had dedicated his life to protecting the critically endangered Siberian tiger. He had safely captured and released nearly seventy of these elusive predators. He knew their behavior. He understood their instincts. He respected their power. Then one October morning, everything he thought he knew was put to the ultimate test. A routine check of a remote trap line, a low growl echoing through the trees, a 400-pound tiger that wasn't supposed to be able to move, and in the blink of an eye, the hunter became the hunted. What happens when one of nature's most powerful predators charges at thirty miles an hour? This is the incredible true story of a man who came face-to-face with one of the most feared predators on Earth and lived to tell the tale. Join us as we step into the forests of Primorsky Krai, where every shadow could hide an apex predator and one split-second decision meant the difference between life and death.

  11. E90: Surviving Days After A Bear Mauling

    Episode 90

    Show notes

    Imagine surviving an attack by a mother brown bear and her two cubs, that was so brutal, rescuers assume you're already dead. Now imagine spending seven days crawling through one of the most unforgiving wildernesses on Earth. In the summer of 1908, Captain William "Wabash Bill" Royden stepped onto Alaska's legendary Admiralty Island with one simple goal—bring fresh venison back to his crew. Instead, he walked straight into the path of a mother brown bear protecting her cubs. What followed was a savage mauling that left him with 64 wounds and injuries so horrific that surviving should have been impossible. For the next week, Wabash Bill would battle raging fever, starvation, relentless rain, and the unforgiving Alaskan wilderness. He would survive on berries... a snail... and a fish that seemed to fall from the sky at exactly the moment he needed it most. And just when rescue was finally within sight...hope began to sail away. This is the unbelievable true story of one of the worst bear attacks in Alaskan history—and the man who simply refused to die. This is the story of Wabash Bill.

  12. E89: 11 Hour Crawl for Help Guided by His Dog

    Episode 89

    Show notes

    He'd driven this trail a hundred times. He knew every bend. Every stream crossing. Every ridge. So when his side-by-side suddenly started sliding backward down the mountainside, he knew exactly what was about to happen. The machine flipped... Again. And again. And again. When the dust settled, it looked like a bomb had gone off. The roof had been ripped away. The tires were scattered across the forest. His phone... gone. His satellite communicator... gone. His radio... gone. His gun... gone. His left leg was twisted at an impossible angle. His right ankle collapsed beneath him. And he was stranded miles from anyone who could hear him scream. But he wasn't alone. Standing beside him, somehow completely unharmed after one of the most violent rollovers imaginable, was Buddy. His loyal dog. With darkness closing in and no hope of calling for rescue, Schmitt faced an impossible decision. Lay there and die... Or drag himself through miles of bear country with two shattered legs. For the next eleven hours, one man and one small dog would battle pain, exhaustion, wildlife, and the unforgiving wilderness in a fight that neither of them was supposed to survive. But the most incredible part of this story isn't how he escaped. It's who refused to let him give up. This is the unbelievable true story of survival, loyalty, and the dog who may have saved his best friend's life one painful step at a time

    Episode 88

    Show notes

    Imagine hiking through mountains you've known your entire life. You've spent decades working these trails. You know every ridge, every meadow, every sound the forest makes. You've trained for bear country. You've done everything right. Then, without warning, a 300-pound grizzly bear explodes out of the trees. You survive the attack. Or at least...you think you do. As you're making your escape—bleeding, shaken, and believing the nightmare is finally over—you hear the unmistakable sound of crashing brush behind you. The same grizzly is coming back. This isn't just another bear encounter. It's one of the rarest and most terrifying wildlife attacks imaginable—a documented double grizzly mauling, where the victim survives the first attack only to be attacked a second time. Sometimes, even perfect preparation isn't enough. So grab a seat, keep your bear spray close and let's step into grizzly country.

  14. E87: Shot And Left To Die in the Amazon

    Episode 87

    Show notes

    The Amazon Rainforest. The largest jungle on Earth. A place where rivers stretch for thousands of miles, where jaguars stalk silently through the shadows, where anacondas disappear beneath dark water, and where entire villages can be days away from the nearest hospital. For most people... Nature is the greatest threat. But sometimes... The most dangerous predator isn't hiding in the jungle. It's another human being. South African adventurer Davey du Plessis set out on an extraordinary mission—to kayak the mighty Amazon from its source high in the Andes all the way to the Atlantic Ocean. More than 4,000 miles through one of the wildest places on Earth. For nearly two months, everything went according to plan. Then, on one seemingly perfect afternoon, a strange bird began following his kayak. It landed. Waited. Flew ahead. And waited again. Davey had no idea... He was being watched. Moments later... A deafening blast ripped through the jungle. He plunged into the Amazon, unable to move his arms, convinced they'd been hacked off. When he finally reached the surface, there was no one in sight. Just silence. Then another shot. Bleeding from dozens of shotgun wounds, with pellets lodged in his face, lungs...and even his heart...Davey fled into one of the most unforgiving jungles on Earth. No map. No help. No way to call for rescue. Only one thought echoed through his mind... "This is where I'm going to die." But surviving the shooting... Was only the beginning.

    Imagine you're fifteen miles deep in the Sierra Nevada wilderness. No roads. No cell phones. No way out. You've spent the day chasing trophy trout with your best friend and your twelve-year-old son. The river is crystal clear, the weather is perfect, and life couldn't be better. Then, in a single heartbeat... Something hidden beneath a rock strikes. A rattlesnake. The venom begins spreading almost instantly. Your leg swells. Your body starts to go numb. The nearest hospital is hours away, your horses are gone, and the only hope of survival is that someone can find you before the venom wins. we journey back to the Sierra Nevada Mountains in the summer of 1962 to tell the astonishing true story of a father whose simple fishing trip became one of the most incredible rattlesnake survival stories ever documented. And the terrifying reminder that in the wilderness, the greatest danger is often the one you never hear.

The pilot’s voice turns frantic over the radio. The aircraft drops lower. And then, a deafening crash echoes through the mountains. The plane is torn apart by the jungle. Passengers are injured. The wreckage disappears into one of the most remote and dangerous landscapes on Earth. And somehow… One woman walks away without a single scratch. Her name is Rosebell Kirungi. But surviving the crash was only the beginning. With no food. No shelter. No way of knowing if rescue would ever come, Rosebell finds herself trapped deep in the Rwenzori Mountains, surrounded by freezing temperatures, endless jungle, and dangers hiding beyond the trees. One by one, the survivors begin to disappear. Rosebell is about to learn that the wilderness took something from her… Something she would never get back.

    Episode 83

    Show notes

    Deep in the remote wilderness of northern Quebec, four experienced hunters were dropped into a landscape so vast, so untouched, that much of it had never even been mapped. They came searching for trophy Woodland caribou. They came prepared. They came confident. Don Barnard and Guy Beauregard walked away from camp with nothing but their rifles, a compass, and a couple of chocolate bars in their pockets. They expected to be gone for a few hours. But when the sun disappeared behind the endless wilderness… they realized something terrifying. They had no idea where they were. No map. No shelter. No way to call for help. And miles of unforgiving wilderness between them and home. As temperatures dropped, rain turned to snow, and their bodies began to fail, they were forced to make impossible choices. Just when their strength was almost gone… a sound broke through the silence. Was it a plane? A boat? Or another cruel trick of the wilderness? One man would walk out. One man would not.

  18. E82: A Deadly Encounter in Tahoe

    Episode 82

    Show notes

    On July 3rd, 2020, 15-year-old Jack and his father Ari stopped in California’s isolated Poker Flat region, trying to get their bearings in the vast Tahoe National Forest. But within seconds, their trip turned into a nightmare. A stranger on a blue ATV appeared out of nowhere… and opened fire. As bullets tore through their Jeep, Jack watched his father collapse beside him. Alone and terrified, the teenager ran into the mountains with no food, no shelter, and almost no cell service — while an armed killer remained somewhere behind him in the woods. For the next 30 hours, Jack would fight to survive alone in the wilderness. Helicopters searched overhead. K-9 teams tracked through the forest. Law enforcement agencies flooded the mountains in one of the largest manhunts the region had ever seen. But Jack had no way of knowing if rescuers would find him first or the gunman would. A random act of violence would shattered a family and terrorized an entire mountain community, and one teenager forced to survive the unthinkable.

  19. E81: Cape Vidal Hyena Attacks

    Episode 81

    Show notes

    In Cape Vidal, South Africa, a breathtaking wilderness where the ocean meets the bush, where families camp beneath the stars, and where predators roam just beyond the glow of lantern light. For years, visitors noticed the warning signs. Hyenas prowling through campsites, tracks circling tents and food mysteriously disappearing in the night. One camper would later call it... "A disaster waiting to happen." Then the attacks began. A teenage boy asleep in his tent suddenly wakes to crushing jaws on his face. A businessman on a fishing trip finds himself fighting a hyena in the darkness after it bites off part of his nose. And then... A 27-year-old camper wakes to the unimaginable. Not one hyena. Two. One clamps onto his skull. The other drags at his ankle. Trapped inside a tent and bleeding heavily, he realizes there's only one option left. Fight. But these aren't isolated incidents. Join us as we uncover the chilling series of hyena attacks that turned a dream camping destination into a nightmare. Sometimes... The most dangerous thing in the wilderness isn't what you see lurking outside your tent. It's what slips inside while you're asleep.

  20. E79: When the Tiger Came Aboard

    Show notes

    Deep in the tangled mangrove forests of India’s Sundarbans, people live with a predator they rarely see… but always fear. For generations, fishermen have whispered stories of boats drifting back empty… of men dragged screaming into the darkness… of tigers that hunt silently through the swamp. Most believe those stories will never happen to them. Mihir Sardar believed that too. For more than 30 years, he fished the deadly waters of the Sundarbans without ever coming face to face with the animal known as the “ghost of the mangroves.” Until one freezing night in December 2021. A forgotten boat door. A sudden scream in the darkness. And a tiger that climbed aboard while he slept. Dragged into the jungle by his leg, Mihir would endure a horrifying fight for survival as his best friend battled a full-grown Bengal tiger with his bare hands. This is the true story of one man’s terrifying encounter with one of the deadliest predators on Earth. And in the Sundarbans… the scariest part isn’t seeing the tiger. It’s knowing it may already be watching you.
