| 1/15/26 |  Mimics & Doppelgängers: The Émilie Sagée Case | How could someone be seen in two places at the same time… and have no idea it’s happening? In this episode of THS Case Files, we explore one of the most unsettling mimic cases ever recorded - the 19th-century account of Émilie Sagée, a schoolteacher repeatedly witnessed appearing simultaneously in multiple locations by dozens of students. This isn’t a story of hallucination, folklore, or a ghost of the dead. It’s a case of a living double - a presence that mirrored her movements, borrowed her appearance, and emerged most strongly when she was at her weakest… all without her awareness. | 12m 04s | ||||||
| 12/18/25 | Four Hours of Terror: The Kelly-Hopkinsville UFO Encounter | On a humid August night in 1955, eleven people barricaded themselves inside a small farmhouse in rural Kentucky-convinced they were under siege by something not human. What followed was nearly four hours of gunfire, glowing figures at the windows, clawed hands on the roof… and a frantic midnight dash to the police station in nearby Hopkinsville. In this episode, we investigate the Kelly-Hopkinsville Encounter, one of the most controversial and misunderstood cases in UFO history. Through eyewitness testimony, historical context, and skeptical analysis, we explore what really happened that night-and why the story refuses to fade. Was this a genuine extraterrestrial encounter? A case of fear, misidentification, and owls in the dark? Or something far stranger? This is the full story-told as a documentary narrative-examining both belief and doubt, and the cultural moment that made a legend possible. | 20m 06s | ||||||
| 12/4/25 | Humanoid Encounters: Five True Stories of Unknown Creatures | Five true encounters. Five witnesses who still don’t have answers. One long, unsettling journey into the world of humanoids, mimics, and things that move in the dark. These are real accounts, retold in the Tales of High Strangeness campfire style - atmospheric, grounded, and designed to stay with you long after the episode ends. If you enjoy humanoid sightings, cryptid encounters, mimicry tales, or unexplained wilderness experiences… this one is for you. Adapted from true firsthand reports (with permission). | 33m 47s | ||||||
| 11/20/25 | The Hammersmith Ghost Case: Panic, Murder & a Legal Haunting | In 1803, the village of Hammersmith in London was terrorized by reports of a ghost - a tall figure in white said to haunt the churchyard, attack travelers, and drive locals into hysterics. Fear spread so widely that armed patrols took to the streets to hunt the apparition. Then, on a freezing January night, a man pulled the trigger on what he believed was that ghost… and killed an innocent bricklayer instead. This episode of THS Case Files investigates the unforgettable Hammersmith Ghost case - a chilling blend of folklore, panic, tragedy, and one of the most important legal debates in British history. You’ll hear: The eerie encounters that set the village on edge A dramatic reconstruction of the shooting The surprising confession of the “real ghost” Believer vs. skeptic perspectives And the strange twist: how this case haunted English law for nearly two centuries Was Hammersmith truly haunted? Or did fear create a ghost where none existed? Subscribe for more documentary-style deep dives into the strange, the unexplained, and the forgotten. | 24m 42s | ||||||
| 11/6/25 | Knocks At The Door - The Black-Eyed Children | THS Case File | In this special THS Case Files episode, we investigate one of the eeriest urban legends of the modern age - the Black-Eyed Children. From a chilling 1996 encounter in Abilene, Texas, to the haunting tales of Vermont’s snow-storm visitors and England’s Cannock Chase, this story has crossed borders and generations - blending folklore, fear, and the strange silence of a midnight knock. This episode comes from my new YouTube channel, THS Case Files, where I dive on-camera into famous paranormal reports and the stories that built them. | 18m 27s | ||||||

| 10/9/25 | Unknown Creatures Caught in the Dark - Three Scary Encounters | Three unsettling first-person encounters with entities beyond explanation. The Hood-Height Beast — a road-side sighting of a wolf-like creature that shouldn’t exist. The Squeaking Walker — a midnight park encounter with something that walks but doesn’t touch the ground. The Tiny Glider — a miniature humanoid with the scent of blood in its wake. Each story invites you into the quiet terror of things that shouldn’t be — but are. | 31m 56s | ||||||
| 10/2/25 | Demons in the Daylight - True Demonic Encounters with the Unseen | Four first-person encounters with demonic forces that press back on the physical world: a daycare where glass “taps” as if tested by claws; a mattress that rocks while its owner stands beside it; a voice that knows your name (and a camera that catches what the eye won’t); and a black-eared imp grinning at a bedroom threshold. These aren’t campfire exaggerations - they’re quiet, lived-in accounts of pressure, presence, and line-drawing.
