    • Bonus time for members: Exploring weirder topics with guestsBlurry Creatures extends conversations with guests, providing members exclusive content and deepening the exploration of strange phenomena

      Blurry Creatures podcast is diving deeper into their episodes with bonus time for members. This new addition will not result in incomplete episodes but rather an extension of the conversation with their guests, exploring weirder topics in an extra 20 minutes to half an hour. The hosts, Luke and Nate, value their listeners' support and aim to provide top-shelf content as a token of appreciation. They also reflected on the foundation of their podcast, which was laid by their guest Fritz Zimmerman and his stories about fairies and the mysteries of North America. The podcast has come a long way, and they are grateful for their audience's continued support, even during challenging times. Additionally, they shared a nostalgic moment about GI Joe's birthday and their childhood memories with the iconic toy.

    • Exploring the Connection Between Fairies, Giants, and the Biblical NarrativeThe origins of fairies can be traced back to various mythologies and share similarities with the Nephilim and giants, as described in Fritz Zimmerman's new book, 'The Encyclopedia of Fairies'.

      The discussion revolved around the connection between fairies, giants, and the biblical narrative, as explored in Fritz Zimmerman's new book, "The Encyclopedia of Fairies." According to the book of Enoch, fairies allied themselves with Satan and were sentenced to dwell in underground dwellings. However, there are also mythical people believed to be related to the Nephilim, who are thought to have become fairies upon death. Fairies are described as mythical beings, often small in size, and capable of doing both good and bad deeds, including stealing children and replacing them with demon babies. The origins of fairies can be traced back to various mythologies around the world, and they share some similarities with the Nephilim and giants. The discussion also touched on the resistance and pushback experienced when trying to explore these topics in depth. Overall, the conversation highlighted the rich history and complexity of the mythological beings we know as fairies.

    • Understanding the Complexity of Spiritual BeingsFairies, Bigfoot, and other mythical beings exhibit a range of good and evil traits, challenging our understanding of spiritual beings. Their size and potential connection to other spiritual entities add to their complexity, requiring a nuanced exploration of the spiritual realm.

      Fairies, much like other mythical beings, encompass a wide range of good and evil entities. From stories of benevolent fairies to those that steal people and keep them captive for centuries, fairies challenge our understanding of spiritual beings. This dichotomy can also be seen in the legends of Bigfoot, with tales of both saving children and harming them. The Nephilim, cherubim, seraphim, and watchers of Enoch add another layer to this complexity, as they too exist in various forms and classes. The size of fairies is also debated, ranging from a foot to three feet tall. Some believe these beings may be related to the little people described in Native American folklore. Ultimately, these myths and legends suggest that there may be a connection between these various spiritual entities, and that they cannot be easily categorized or understood through a physical lens alone. Instead, they require a more nuanced exploration of the spiritual realm.

    • Fairies and Burial Mounds: A ConnectionFairies, believed to inhabit burial mounds, are depicted as tiny beings with supernatural powers in various cultures and folklore. Encounters with these beings can bring blessings or curses. European folklore is most rich with fairy tales involving burial mounds, but similar reports exist in North America as well.

      Fairies, as depicted in various cultures and folklore, have a connection to burial mounds. These tiny beings, whether they are fairy spirits or remnants of ancient civilizations like the Nephilim or Tuatha De Danann, are believed to inhabit these mounds. There are numerous stories of encounters with fairies, who can bring blessings or curses depending on the treatment they receive. While these tales are most prevalent in Europe, there are also reports of fairy sightings and burial mounds in North America. Researchers have uncovered mass graves of small skeletons, further fueling the belief in the existence of these beings. Despite having no personal experiences with fairies, the fascination with their association with burial mounds has led to extensive research and the compilation of numerous stories.

    • Ancient mounds as possible portals to other realmsAncient mounds, believed to be spiritual sites, have been linked to reports of strange creatures and unexplained phenomena, suggesting a potential connection to other realms or dimensions.

      Ancient mounds, believed to be portals by some, have been linked to various paranormal experiences and cryptid sightings. According to the discussion, there are stories of strange creatures emerging from these mounds, and they seem to be associated with energy from the earth and the belief that the spirits of the dead reside there. A specific example was given of a serpent mound in Minnesota, and the idea that these mounds could serve as portals for the living to connect with the dead. Additionally, a personal account was shared of an investigation at Newark, where a paranormal team encountered unexplained phenomena, including stick figures and words appearing on their equipment. The words that came up were not typical, but rather, ominous terms like "witch," "Satan," and "evil." These experiences suggest that there may be some truth to the belief that mounds have spiritual significance and could potentially serve as gateways to other realms.

    • Ancient Structures in Ohio with Intricate Designs and Paranormal ActivityThe Newark Earthworks in Ohio, built around 800 BC, display intricate mathematical designs and evidence of paranormal activity, challenging the belief they were built by Native Americans, and suggesting a more advanced civilization with knowledge of trigonometry.

      The Newark Earthworks in Ohio, believed to be ancient structures, display intricate mathematical designs and paranormal activity that challenge the commonly held belief that they were built by Native Americans. The structures include a mound with words like "witch," "evil," and "holy," which stopped the paranormal activity after a minister's rebukal. The layout of the earthworks involves complex shapes like circles, squares, and octagons, which would require advanced mathematical knowledge, such as trigonometry, that Native Americans did not possess. The carbon dating of the site places its construction around 800 BC, but some archaeologists have resisted this conclusion due to the desire for sensational headlines and the belief that the structures were built by poor ancient people. The evidence, including the lack of skeletal material matching Native Americans and the use of sacred geometry, suggests that the Newark Earthworks were likely built by a culture with a more advanced understanding of mathematics.

    • Ancient mounds and fairies: Complex stories of paranormal and supernatural elementsAncient mounds and fairy tales involve intriguing paranormal and supernatural elements, connecting various cultures and mythologies, and deserve further exploration and investigation.

      The stories and legends surrounding ancient mounds and fairies are diverse and complex, with connections to various cultures and mythologies. Despite some misconceptions, these tales often involve paranormal or supernatural elements and cannot be easily categorized or dismissed. For instance, the Tuatha De Danann from Irish mythology share similarities with the Nephilim in the biblical account of Genesis 6, as they were believed to be supernatural beings with god-like abilities. The idea of sacred geometry not matching Native American cultures should not diminish the significance of these stories, as they continue to captivate our imagination and inspire further exploration and investigation. The nighttime mysteries of mounds remain largely unexplored, and the possibility of paranormal phenomena associated with them is intriguing and worth further investigation.

    • Ancient civilizations and their advanced knowledge from mysterious entitiesAncient civilizations may have learned advanced skills like mathematics, architecture, arts, magic, and necromancy from entities like the Fomorians or Amorites, as evidenced by their impressive structures and artifacts.

      Across various cultures and time periods, stories of giants, disembodied spirits, and advanced knowledge transfer exist. These entities, often referred to as the Fomorians or Amorites in different contexts, are believed to have taught their offspring skills such as sciences, architecture, arts, magic, and even necromancy. This advanced knowledge is evident in ancient structures and artifacts that still puzzle modern researchers. It's fascinating to consider that these civilizations, often considered less advanced, might have possessed knowledge that has since been lost or forgotten. The advanced mathematics and architectural feats found in ancient civilizations like Egypt, Peru, and even Easter Island, suggest a level of understanding that seems to surpass our current knowledge. This theory challenges the notion that history is a degrading copy of a copy, and instead, encourages us to reevaluate and appreciate the brilliance of our ancient ancestors.

    • Portals to Other Realms or Dimensions through Ancient SitesBelief in ancient sites as portals to other realms or dimensions, potential consequences of opening them, and skepticism towards hollow earth theory.

      Certain sites, like the Grave Creek mound in front of the West Virginia Penitentiary, are believed to be portals to other realms or dimensions. These portals may have been created intentionally or unintentionally, and opening them can lead to unknown consequences, potentially allowing unwanted entities to enter. The idea of hollow earth, with spaces where beings can emerge from, is a popular theory but not widely accepted. The speakers also discussed the concept of mounds as spiritual cave openings, connecting heaven and earth. However, one speaker expressed skepticism towards the hollow earth theory.

    • Belief in fairies and other mythical beings inhabiting caves and underground areasFairies and other mythical beings, like the Nephilim, are believed to inhabit caves and underground areas, and may be responsible for unexplained disappearances in the missing 411 phenomenon.

      According to the discussion, there is a belief that fairies and other mythical beings, such as the Nephilim, may inhabit caves and underground areas, which could be considered portals to other realms. These beings, often described as earthbound, are believed to have the ability to manifest and disappear. Some stories depict fairies as evil, while others portray them as good. The majority of the tales are set in rural areas and involve encounters with these beings in forests, caves, or other natural environments. The discussion also touched upon the possibility of a connection between fairies and the missing 411 phenomenon, suggesting that they may be responsible for some unexplained disappearances. Overall, the conversation emphasized the belief in the existence of fairies and other mythical beings, and their potential role in paranormal experiences.

    • Ancient Mounds in Tennessee: A Look into Native American Culture and Mining ActivitiesAncient mounds in Tennessee hold a complex history, believed to be connected to Native American culture and mining activities for copper. Some theories suggest they were royal platforms or burial sites, and their origins are debated, possibly due to European migration.

      There are numerous ancient mounds scattered throughout Tennessee, some of which are believed to be connected to the Native American culture and their mining activities for copper. These mounds, such as Mound Bottom State Archaeological Area in Kingston Springs, are often located near bodies of water and require a boat to access. The history of these mounds is complex, with some theories suggesting they were used as royal platforms, while others believe they may have been burial sites. The origins of the people who built these mounds are debated, with some theories pointing to their migration from Europe due to invasions or resource depletion. Additionally, there are intriguing discoveries related to these mounds, such as America's Stonehenge in Tennessee, which aligns with the solstices and holds remarkable archaeological findings, as documented in LA Marzulli's video series. Overall, these ancient mounds offer a fascinating glimpse into Tennessee's rich history and the mysterious cultures that once inhabited the region.

    • Ancient structures connected through shared dimensions and solar alignmentsAncient civilizations likely shared a common belief system centered around solar deities, as evidenced by similar dimensions and solar alignments in structures across Europe, North America, and Germany.

      There is evidence of a connection between various ancient structures, such as Stonehenge and hinges found in Europe, North America, and Germany. These structures, which often include circular earthworks, outer walls, and gateways aligned to solar events, were likely built by the same knowledge group of peoples, such as the Amorites. Many of these structures share similar dimensions and alignments, suggesting a common system of measurement and understanding of astronomical phenomena. This suggests a shared belief system, possibly centered around solar deities, and could be evidence of a widespread ancient civilization. The use of similar dimensions, such as 33 feet for gateways, and the alignment to solar events further strengthens this theory. Additionally, the connection between these structures and various belief systems, such as those found in masonry, adds to the complexity of this ancient civilization's history. Overall, this evidence challenges traditional understandings of ancient history and suggests a more interconnected and complex past.

    • Ancient Ohio Earthworks: A Sky's Eye ViewThe ancient Ohio earthworks display impressive geometric precision and lunar alignment, hinting at advanced knowledge and planning, but their purpose and origin remain a mystery.

      The ancient civilizations, such as those in Ohio, were capable of constructing massive, geometrically perfect earthworks that could only be fully appreciated from the sky. The precise alignment of these structures with lunar cycles suggests advanced knowledge and planning. The purpose and origin of these earthworks remain a mystery, with some theories suggesting extraterrestrial influence. While these theories are intriguing, there is currently no concrete evidence to support them. Regardless, the existence of these structures highlights the impressive achievements of ancient civilizations and the ongoing mystery that surrounds them.

    • Importance of quality equipment in paranormal investigationsInvestigating the paranormal requires reliable equipment to capture evidence. Paranormal expert Fritz shared his experiences with faulty tools and emphasized the importance of investing in high-quality devices.

      During their conversation with paranormal investigator Fritz, the hosts discussed their upcoming investigation and the importance of having proper equipment. Fritz shared his experiences with less-than-effective paranormal tools and emphasized the need for quality equipment. The hosts also mentioned their plans to offer extended conversations with guests as a reward for members, and Fritz shared insights on UFOs and other topics during this bonus content. Additionally, Fritz encouraged listeners to check out his books on the Giants and fairies. Despite some topic deviations, the conversation provided intriguing insights into the world of paranormal investigations.

    EP: 240 Wormholes with Ashton Forbes
    We welcome back Ashton Forbes to embark on a journey through the speculative realms of wormhole technology. Ashton has led the investigation into the missing Malaysian flight MH370; his most recent conclusions are startling. Forbes believes that the video and satellite evidence and the physics of the perceived phenomena surrounding the last minutes of Flight 370 may suggest the missing plane encountered a wormhole, a hypothetical tunnel through spacetime, leading to its mysterious disappearance. Ashton makes a great case that this science explains exactly why we cannot find the vanished aircraft. What are the implications? Why do so many people refuse to accept that elites may control this technology? What does the science say about the plausibility of manmade wormholes? Squatchella.com for LIVE TICKETS!

    EP: 202 Festival of the Dead with Luke Eastwood

    Luke Eastwood joins us this week to discuss his book "Samhain: The Roots of Halloween" and the Irish genesis of the holiday. A practicing Druid and founder of the Irish Druid Network, Luke brings a unique perspective on the topic. We discuss how the modern celebration of Halloween is derived from the ancient festival of the dead in Ireland known as Samhain. Eastwood contends it is from Ireland that most of the Halloween traditions we have in the West have been inherited. Delving into the ancient past, our guest this week uncovers the history of this festival in Britain and Ireland, including the forgotten goddess Tlachtga and the sacred temple of the Druids in county Meath, named after her, where the first Halloween fires were originally lit. We discuss how this time of year it is believed the veil is thin, how candles are lit on Samhain to invite in the spirits of the dead, how fairies are real and can be found all over Ireland, and what this festival means to the pagan Irish and Druid class.
