This sale represents a significant savings opportunity with special financing available. During the show, the host shared his personal experience of welcoming a newborn baby into the world. He also announced the transition from website memberships to Patreon for easier access to exclusive content. A guest named Brent shared intriguing stories from his past, including an encounter with an unexplained phenomenon on his sister's bed as a child.

    • Childhood Encounter with a Possible DemonA childhood memory of a distinct, terrifying encounter with an unidentified presence is revisited as an adult, leading to research into the occult for explanation.

      The speaker recounts a childhood experience of seeing a large, black mass in his sister's bedroom, which he now believes may have been a demon. The memory is distinct, as he remembers the layout of the house, the boiling pot on the stove, and the open door to his sister's room revealing the black mass on her bed. The mass was breathing, which added to the terror of the experience. As an adult, the speaker struggled to make sense of the encounter, but after hearing about a class of demons called "the hairy ones," or Essereim, the experience began to make more sense. However, the speaker is not completely certain that it was a demon, but he is certain that it was a physical presence that terrified him as a child. The memory is not fading, and it was only through research into the occult that he was able to begin to understand the experience. The breathing of the mass remains a puzzling aspect of the encounter.

    • Theories of Demons and HauntingsPeople attribute unexplained phenomena to supernatural entities like demons, who may create manufactured beings to inhabit a physical form.

      People often try to explain the unexplainable by attributing supernatural phenomena to human or alien entities. In this discussion, the idea of demons being responsible for hauntings or alien encounters was explored. The theory suggests that demons need a physical form to inhabit, and they may create manufactured beings like the "grays" to do so. The speaker shared a personal experience of encountering a mysterious entity in their childhood home, which they couldn't explain and couldn't verify if it was related to a haunting or not. They also mentioned that they had experienced other paranormal occurrences in different houses. The entity they encountered was described as a large, hairy mass, but it didn't have any distinct features like horns or hooves. The speaker didn't have any context or knowledge of demons or Bigfoot at the time of the encounter, which happened decades ago. The conversation highlights the complexity and ambiguity of paranormal experiences and the various ways people try to make sense of them.

    • Personal experiences with unexplained phenomenaEncounters with unknown entities leave a lasting impact and raise intriguing questions about the spiritual and physical world.

      Personal experiences with unexplained phenomena can leave a lasting impact and raise intriguing questions. The speaker shared their experience of encountering an unknown entity in their childhood, which they couldn't classify and had a hard time discussing. They also mentioned a listener's story about shooting and killing a creature with a goat head, which was later identified as Baphomet. Both experiences highlight the mysterious and unexplained nature of these encounters, leaving room for speculation and questioning the boundaries between the spiritual and physical world. It's important to note that these stories cannot be verified, but they serve as reminders of the unexplored depths of human experiences and the unknown that surrounds us.

    • An interviewee's belief in a pre-birth agreementAn interviewee shares their belief in a pre-birth agreement, which they believe has shaped their life with challenges, but now see as not as hard as once thought, leaving them pondering future hardships.

      The interviewee shared a deeply personal and intriguing experience about remembering an agreement they made before birth, which they believe has shaped their life. This agreement, which they describe as terrifying, was made with the understanding that their life would be difficult but that they would be able to return to wherever they came from upon completion. The interviewee also mentioned hearing about the concept of "pre-life memories" and finding their own recollection of this agreement both fascinating and frightening. Despite the challenges they've faced in their life, they now recognize that their life has not been as hard as they once believed, and they are left pondering the implications of this agreement and the potential for even greater hardships yet to come.

    • Brent's mysterious agreement and its emotional impactBrent is anxious about a past agreement with unknown consequences, fearing emotionally catastrophic results. He contemplates its connection to the afterlife or reincarnation.

      Brent is grappling with the implications of a mysterious agreement he made in the past, which he believes will have emotionally catastrophic consequences in his present life. He is unsure of what the agreement entails, but the fear of the unknown is causing him anxiety and apprehension. Brent emphasizes that he is not afraid to die, but rather, he is concerned about how and when he will die. He has faith in Jesus and believes that his faith will determine his destination after death. The experience of the agreement is a source of deep contemplation for Brent, and he wonders if it may be related to the afterlife or reincarnation. Prior to discussing this further, Brent shared a story about a strange encounter with a dresser drawer and his sister, which left listeners curious and wanting to know more.

    • Childhood discovery of human bones leaves lasting impactA childhood encounter with real human bones can leave a profound emotional impact, shaping a person's perspective on life

      The speaker had a disturbing experience as a child when they discovered a drawer full of human bones in their chest of drawers. This memory has stayed with them throughout their life, leaving a profound impact on their psyche. The speaker cannot definitively recall the age they were at the time, but they remember it was not a fake or Halloween-themed discovery. The bones were real and stacked to the brim, leaving them and their sister in shock. Despite discussing the incident numerous times, the speaker and their sister both remember the event vividly. This experience raises questions about the emotional impact such events can have on children and how they may shape a person's outlook on life. The speaker also mentions another strange occurrence in their life, but it was at a different location and time. They wonder if there might be a connection to the history of the property where the bones were found.

    • Native American traditions and family historyNative American traditions are deeply rooted in family history and passed down through generations. The speaker's family has a rich cultural background with a shamanic past, and the potential continuation of these traditions in future generations.

      Native American traditions, including shamanism and healing practices, are deeply rooted in family history and are passed down through generations. The speaker's family history includes a full-blooded Native American great aunt who was a shaman or medicine woman. According to the speaker, the teachings would have been passed down from the female to the male in the next generation. The speaker's sister would have been the one to inherit these teachings, but the speaker's son has also exhibited signs of having a supernatural experience, which could potentially indicate a continuation of these traditions in the family. The speaker respects these cultured traditions and is open to sharing their son's experience, but the family keeps such experiences private. The discovery of a dresser drawer full of bones at a property the speaker's family used to own adds to the sense of family history and mystery surrounding these traditions.

    • Son's Encounter with an Unidentified EntityA family deals with their son's encounter with a mysterious entity, initially labeled as an angel but later considered as a ghost, while maintaining truthfulness and protecting him from fear.

      The speaker's son had an encounter with an unidentified entity in their old house, which they described as a man coming through the wall. The entity's appearance was matter-of-fact for the son, and they also reported seeing shadowy figures in the house. The family moved out of the house, and the son no longer experiences these occurrences. They initially labeled the entity as an angel due to the son's age and fear, but later discussed the possibility of it being a ghost. The family aims to be truthful with their son but also wants to protect him from unnecessary fear. The son's description of the entity has evolved as he grows older, and they continue to observe his experiences closely.

    • A child's encounter with an unidentified figureA child's description of a figure in his room raised questions about whether it was an angel or something else, leaving parents fearful and uncertain about how to handle the situation.

      The child in question had a unique experience where he saw a figure come through his room and leave the house. The parents initially described it as an angel due to the intimacy of the encounter, but later came to question this interpretation. The child had expressed unease about the previous house, and after moving, he shared more details about other strange occurrences. The parents' reaction was one of fear and they told the child it was an angel to avoid scaring him. However, they now believe it might not have been an angel based on the description of the event. The child's ability to see such things suggests that he may have had other similar experiences. The parents felt scared and unprepared for the situation and wished they had handled it differently.

    • Good intentions but incomplete truthsPeople may withhold information or bend the truth to comfort or protect, potentially causing confusion or misunderstandings later on. The unexplained phenomenon of the 'lady in white' continues to intrigue and unsettle people despite a lack of evidence or explanation.

      People may not always tell the whole truth or share all the details, especially when trying to comfort or protect someone, even if it means bending the truth a little. This was evident in the discussion about the "angels in the room" incident and the "lady in white" story. The speakers had good intentions but didn't share all the facts, which may have caused confusion or misunderstandings later on. Additionally, the discussion touched on the mysterious and unexplained phenomenon of the "lady in white" that some people, including the speaker's sister, claimed to have seen while they slept. Despite the lack of concrete evidence or explanation, the belief in this apparition continues to intrigue and unsettle people.

    • Childhood supernatural experiences and their interpretationPeople's experiences with the supernatural can change as they grow older, and the significance of these occurrences may be subjective and uncertain.

      People have different experiences and interpretations of supernatural occurrences. The speaker shared an experience from their childhood where they believed a lady in white was watching them sleep, which they initially found intriguing and even considered a sign of being special. However, as an adult, they now doubt this explanation and believe it was likely an odd occurrence with no significant meaning. The speaker's sister also experienced this phenomenon multiple times and described seeing the figure at the foot of her bed. The speaker found it curious that only males have reported this experience and wondered about the reason behind it. They also recalled seeing bones in a dresser drawer, but were unsure whose it was. Ultimately, the speakers acknowledged that these topics are filled with conjecture, and no definitive answers are likely to be found.

    • Shared spiritual experiences and potential inherited abilitiesThe speaker and their sister may share a spiritual legacy, with unexplained experiences and possible inherited shamanic abilities. Proper teaching is crucial for fully understanding and utilizing these traits.

      The shared experiences and potential generational connection between the speaker and their sister could be linked to a possible inherited spiritual ability. The speaker recalls a shared dresser and strange occurrences, such as seeing supernatural entities, which could suggest a common denominator between their experiences. The speaker also discusses the possibility of shamanic abilities being inherited through generations, and believes that while there may be a genetic component, proper teaching is necessary to fully understand and utilize these abilities. The speaker's mother, who also exhibits unexplained abilities, further supports the idea of these traits being passed down. Overall, the conversation suggests that there may be a spiritual legacy that the speaker and their sister share, and that further exploration and understanding could reveal more about their potential and their family history.

    • Unexplained experiences and their potential connectionsSome people have unexplained experiences that may be influenced by family history or cultural background, such as inexplicable connections or recurring nighttime experiences. These experiences, though unusual, can be intriguing to explore.

      Some people may have unexplained experiences or feelings that seem to defy logic or rational explanation. The speaker shared an experience from his childhood where he felt an inexplicable connection to an upcoming phone call. He also mentioned having recurring nighttime experiences that he couldn't forget, which he described as feeling like dreams but having a physical impact. These experiences, though unusual, may be inherited or influenced by family history or cultural background. The speaker emphasized that he is not an expert on the subject but finds it fascinating to consider these connections. Another topic the speaker touched on was his experiences with seemingly prophetic dreams or visions, which were so vivid and recurring that they caused fear and anxiety. These experiences highlight the mysterious and unexplained aspects of human consciousness and perception.

    • Speaker describes intense childhood experiences of terrifying visions, unable to find media or experiences that come closeSpeaker believes faith in Jesus Christ offers comfort and protection, drawing on belief as savior figure. Offering pure heart or best self can help seek spiritual guidance.

      The speaker's childhood experiences of recurring terrifying visions or dreams were so intense that they felt like living through hell. As an adult, they cannot recall any media or experiences that came close to describing what they went through. The speaker suggests that faith in Jesus Christ can provide comfort and protection, drawing on the belief that Jesus is a savior figure in various religious traditions. The speaker also references the Old Testament practice of sacrificing animals to approach God and suggests that having a pure heart or offering the best of oneself can help in seeking spiritual guidance.

    • Accessing forgiveness and connection through JesusBelievers can directly access forgiveness and connection with God through Jesus, eliminating the need for Old Testament practices or sacrifices.

      Through Jesus, believers have access to an immediate and powerful means of forgiveness and connection with God, eliminating the need for Old Testament practices or carrying a sacrificial lamb. Jesus is the ultimate sacrifice, and calling on His name can bring forgiveness and strength in various situations, even in the face of adversity or spiritual warfare. The listener is encouraged to believe in their heart and trust in Jesus' power, knowing that they are not alone. The show, "The Confessionals," is growing due to the support and sharing of its listeners, creating a community that strengthens and encourages each other in their faith journey.

    663: Stranger Things Of The Unseen Realm

    663: Stranger Things Of The Unseen Realm
    In episode 663: Stranger Things Of The Unseen Realm, Chad Riley joins to discuss his documentary Skinwalkers & Stranger Things Of The Unseen Realm. This gripping conversation uncovers the mysteries of hitchhiking spirits, remote viewing, and the occult connections between Jack Parsons, Aleister Crowley, and military endeavors.

They then attempt to breakdown the concept warfare and factional struggles within these unknown dimensions, their ties to ancient deities, secret societies, and intelligence networks. Finally, confront the chilling concepts of realm-traversing portals, screen memories, and the manipulation of human perception by elusive entities. This was a jam-packed episode, with some incredible discussion.

    RELOADED | 502: Lost Treasure and Secret Petroglyphs of Virginia

    RELOADED | 502: Lost Treasure and Secret Petroglyphs of Virginia
    In Episode 502: Lost Treasure and Secret Petroglyphs of Virginia we are joined by Justin, Lance, and Ryan from the Appalachian Intelligence podcast, who reached out months ago regarding some unusual pictures they had taken in Virginia. Buried in the hills of Virginia, there is a huge rock that Justin, Lance, and Ryan stumbled across, with petroglyphs etched into its face. As they sought out answers to their discovery, the mystery became much deeper. With the information they’ve since been given, they are now joining in on a hunt for the lost treasure of the Swift Silver Mine, which might have a direct connection to their secret petroglyph boulder.

    Introducing: Free The Rabbits

    Introducing: Free The Rabbits
    How deep down the rabbit hole have you gone? Do you currently reside there? If so, it's time to touch grass and get your tail out of the hole!

    “Free The Rabbits” is a new podcast by Joel Thomas that explores the conspiratorial world without getting lost in the proverbial rabbit hole. It's easy to attribute negative causes and effects to events that don't make sense around us. While sometimes there might be a valid case for such machinations, there's just as likely a simple explanation. Joel Thomas doesn’t shy away from the weird, supernatural, and paranormal, but he offers a unique perspective on conspiracies. He acknowledges that theories are just that—possibilities, not provable facts.

    In episode 662: Field Of Fear, Eugene shares his many experiences with the paranormal that have spanned many years. He begins his story with eerie backyard phenomena, including strange vocalizations and a glowing orbs, that he and his wife had seen together. Eugene then shares his harrowing experience of coon hunting, where he and others encountered unexplained metallic slams, red eyes, and a mysterious creature with large ears and long fingers, emitting a foul smell. It terrified him so much at the time, that he is still shaken up by it to this day.

    He then recounts his family's eerie encounters with supernatural entities, his stepson's dark magic, and his own mysterious sightings. He talks about his fascination with magic, paganism, portals, Kentucky giants, UFOs, and strange lights, concluding with a dive into genealogy and family history, including his involvement in the Free Masons.

    In Episode 587: Bigfoot Outside My RV, Jessey discusses his journey into faith and his experiences with the paranormal, culminating in an encounter with what he believes to be a Bigfoot. He emphasizes the potential existence of various beings, including remnants of Nephilim, interdimensional beings, and government-created entities, and highlights the complexity of these topics. Jessey also mentions finding small footprints and handprints on his roof, suggesting the presence of a young Bigfoot during his encounter. Through talking with Jessey the common ground we find is that reality is far stranger and more mysterious than conventional beliefs suggest.
