GITN a Paranormal and True Crime Podcast

You were told Apollo ended in 1972.Officially, Apollo 18, 19, and 20 were canceled because of budget cuts. The rockets existed. The crews were trained. The hardware was ready. Then suddenly, it stopped.But what if it didn’t?In this episode, we examine the Apollo 20 conspiracy — the claim that a classified mission launched in 1976 to investigate a massive structure on the Moon’s far side. A mission allegedly preceded by Apollo 19… a mission that may have failed.We break down:• The official history of the Apollo program• Why 18, 19, and 20 were canceled• The Apollo 19 crash narrative• William Rutledge and the whistleblower footage• The Delporte crater anomaly• The “Mona Lisa” humanoid entity claim• The logistical wall that challenges the story• And the gray areas that keep this theory aliveDid NASA walk away from the Moon because it was expensive?Or because something was discovered?This is not about believing or debunking.It’s about examining the gap between the official story… and the story people tell when something feels unfinished.This is GITN.

He wasn’t hiding.He was trusted.John Wayne Gacy was a successful businessman, active in local politics, and a familiar face in his community. Police interviewed him. Families named him. Investigators walked away.Meanwhile, young men were disappearing — and the truth was being buried beneath his house.In this episode, we break down the John Wayne Gacy case from start to finish, focusing less on the headlines and more on what actually allowed this to happen: credibility, comfort, and repeated investigative failures.We cover:Gacy’s early life, psychology, and first criminal convictionHow he used respectability, politics, and community involvement as coverThe victims whose families warned police — and were ignoredThe moments where Gacy was interviewed, suspected, and dismissedHow surveillance, search warrants, and mounting pressure finally cracked the caseWhat police found beneath the house — and why it took so long to lookThis isn’t just a serial killer story.It’s a case study in misplaced trust — and the cost of believing the wrong person.Content Warning: This episode contains discussion of violent crime and sexual assault.

Five men attend a basketball game in California in 1978 and expect to be home that night. Instead, they drive deep into the mountains, abandon a perfectly working car, and disappear into freezing wilderness.Months later, one of them is found dead inside a Forest Service trailer filled with food and heat he never used. Two others are found frozen miles away. Two are never found at all.This episode breaks down The Yuba County Five, one of the most disturbing and misunderstood unsolved mysteries in American true crime history. We examine who the five men were, the role of intellectual disabilities and mental illness, the strange decisions that led them into the mountains, and the psychological factors that may explain why they abandoned safety when survival was still possible.We also explore every major theory, including group panic, schizophrenia and medication withdrawal, learned helplessness, search failures, and the possibility that one man survived longer than anyone realized — then vanished.This case isn’t about monsters or murderers. It’s about fear, confusion, trust, and how quickly everything can fall apart when routine disappears

For nearly a century, the Murdaugh name carried unchecked power in South Carolina’s Lowcountry.Judges recognized it.Law enforcement deferred to it.And for decades, justice bent around it.In this episode of the GITN Podcast, we break down the rise and collapse of Alex Murdaugh, the privileged legal dynasty that seemed untouchable—until it wasn’t.This isn’t just a murder case.It’s a story about influence, money, and a system trained to look the other way.We examine:How the Murdaugh family built generational legal powerThe suspicious deaths that never quite added upFinancial crimes hiding in plain sightThe investigation that finally pulled the curtain backAnd the courtroom battle that brought a dynasty to its kneesThis case forces an uncomfortable question:How many crimes go unpunished when the people meant to stop them are part of the machine?Tonight, we trace the collapse from quiet favors… to public exposure… to a verdict that ended a reign of silence.Welcome to GITN Podcast.

In this GITN Strange Bite, we break down why Bigfoot is the one cryptid that doesn’t require supernatural explanations to possibly be real and why that actually makes it more unsettling. Instead of blurry photos and overconfident claims, we ask better questions:Could Bigfoot be an intelligent primate that never went extinct?Why is visual evidence unreliable in the modern age?Why do audio recordings matter more than photos?Is “it was just a bear” actually a weak explanation?Why are the woods scarier than Bigfoot itself?We don’t deal in absolutes. We don’t guarantee anything, and we don’t tell people what they did or didn’t experience. This isn’t a belief episode. It’s a plausibility investigation.If Bigfoot is real, it wouldn’t be magic.It would be smarter than us.

On June 30th, 1908, a massive explosion tore through the Siberian sky with the force of a 15-megaton nuclear blast—yet no crater was ever found.This is the true story of the Tunguska Event:a cosmic mystery that flattened 80 million trees, shook the Earth, lit up the night skies around the globe, and left scientists debating its cause for more than 100 years.In this episode, we dive into:The eyewitness accounts of a “second sun”The shockwaves that circled the planetWhy the forest fell in a perfect radial patternFailed expeditions and missing evidenceAsteroid vs. comet vs. exotic theoriesThe modern science behind airburst explosionsWhether Tunguska could happen again — and destroy a major cityWas it a stony asteroid? An icy comet? A cosmic airburst?Or something even stranger?This is one of the most powerful explosions in recorded history — and we still don’t know what caused it.

You know Thanksgiving: turkey, family arguments, and pretending you don’t want a third plate of mashed potatoes.But in Plymouth, Massachusetts, there’s another tradition hiding underneath the holiday cheer—something colder, older, and way more unsettling. For generations, locals have claimed that a tall, gaunt figure in Pilgrim clothes appears near the shoreline every November. He doesn’t talk. He doesn’t smile. He doesn’t even look up. He just walks… slowly… as if replaying something terrible from a past that refuses to stay buried.In this GITN Strange Bite episode, we dig into the legend known as The Ghost of Plymouth Rock:The messy, rarely told origin of Plymouth Rock (and why the story doesn’t add up)The brutal “Starving Time” of 1620–1621 that turned Plymouth into a graveyardWitness accounts of a Pilgrim ghost walking the shore and vanishing mid-stepTheories connecting the spirit to John Goodman, Thomas English, and the drowned and forgottenWhy some believe the ghost is trapped by the rock itselfThe Wampanoag spirit angle: is this even a Pilgrim—or something much older?Skeptical explanations vs. paranormal ones: residual hauntings, stone tape theory, water memory, and “anniversary” ghostsAnd the biggest question of all: What if this ghost isn’t theirs… but ours?Whether you’re a skeptic, a believer, or just here for dark history and haunted holiday vibes, this story turns Thanksgiving from cozy to quietly cursed.🎧 Enjoy more GITN Strange Bites for paranormal stories, haunted history, and the weird shadows behind everyday traditions.

People are vanishing in America’s national parks — and no one can explain why. From six-year-old Dennis Martin in the Great Smoky Mountains to experienced hunter Aaron Hedges in Montana’s Crazy Mountains, these strange disappearances share chilling patterns: missing clothes, sudden weather, and bodies found miles from where they vanished.In this episode, we dive deep into the Missing 411 phenomenon, exploring the most mysterious cases, the National Park Service’s silence, and theories ranging from natural accidents to government secrets, portals, and the paranormal.True crime meets the unexplained — in the wildest places on Earth.

In December 2021, panic erupted inside a historic church in Vicenza, Italy. A 26-year-old woman entered the confessional seeking help, then began to scream, curse, and speak in strange voices. Within minutes, priests locked the doors. Police and medics waited outside as four friars battled what they believed was the Devil for nearly nine hours. This episode unpacks the full story of the Monte Berico exorcism, what witnesses saw, what the Church claimed, and what skeptics think really happened. Was it genuine possession… or a crisis of faith and psychology spiraling in real time? We’ll explore: The timeline of the nine-hour ritual inside the locked church, Vatican rules requiring psychiatric evaluation before exorcisms, media turned a regional event into a global “proof of the demonic.” The tension between belief, mental health, and the need to find evil in chaos, nightfall, one woman collapsed, and a modern legend was born. The question isn’t just what happened in Monte Berico… It’s why the world needed to believe it did.

A scream on Royal Street. A woman on the cobblestones, two neat crescents at her throat, and a gentleman who never eats.This is New Orleans’ most persistent legend—where a noble with perfect manners meets two blue-collar brothers and the city’s shadow tells the truth it can’t prove.New Orleans sells music, mystery, and—if you know the right corner—fear. The Royal Street balcony incident was tied to Jacques St. Germain, the elegant stranger who threw parties and avoided plates. Then it shifts to the Carter brothers, dockworkers whose apartment—according to the legend—hid chairs, bandages, and a ritual that turned neighbors into resources; two eras, one appetite.We separate the case file from the campfire without killing the ghost of either. How much of the story lives in archives—and how much survives because the city needs it? From European vampire lore to West African spiritual frameworks, from empty coffins to modern, self-identified vampire communities with rules and screening kits, this is New Orleans as it really operates: charm in the front room, extraction in the back.If you’re here for myth vs. records, metaphor vs. body count, and the way a city frames its darkness to make the light look honest, you’re in the right place. The balcony is still there. The door is still just a door. But once you learn the route the legends walk, you stop looking away and start looking deeper.
