The line between man and beast has always been disturbingly thin. But this has always been a metaphorical comparison, as we humans like to think ourselves above the savagery and primal mind of the animal. Folklore however, tells us tales of man-beasts and shapeshifters, that blur this line even further. It tells us stories of people who can turn into beasts, and can only satisfy their bloodlust by attacking their fellow man. Tonight, we fall under the curse of the full moon on this Team Jacob ep...

Tonight, we make a deal with the devil on this bluesy episode of Snipe Hunt.

Folklore is an attempt by humans to explain what we don’t understand. Conspiracy theories then, might be best described as modern folklore; and like folklore, there may be some truth to the claims. Denver International Airport in Colorado has been the target of conspiracy theories even before its opening in 1995. But why does this airport in particular have so many claims surrounding it? What secrets does it hide? Tonight we don our tinfoil hats and search for the truth on this episode of Snipe ...

Bigfoot, Nessie, and the Chupacabra, are probably the most famous cryptids in existence. This is due in part to the possibility that these creatures might be real, even despite a lack of scientific evidence. This is what makes them compelling, so cryptids that have been proven hoaxes do not get the same limelight, despite the entertainment value. We fix that today on this flimflam episode of Snipe Hunt.

One thing that unites the human race is the love of music. Despite many theories, the reason why music causes a rush of dopamine in our brains is ultimately unknown to science. Dance is the physical expression of the emotions that music causes within us. We can all agree that dance is a happy thing. But what happens if you can’t stop? What if you danced yourself… to death? Tonight we cover the Dancing Plague on this manic minisode of Snipe Hunt.

Dolls. While some people look at these figures, they see nothing but cute children’s toys. But others see creepy human replicas.

Perhaps it is this history that has contributed to the belief that some of these dolls… are haunted. Join us tonight as we discuss these eerie effigies on this playful episode of Snipe Hunt.

Sleep, the activity where we voluntarily trade our consciousness for dreams. It is a time for rest and rejuvenation; preparing ourselves for the tasks of the upcoming day.

There are many creatures that exist in folklore, but the ones who seem to capture the imagination more than any other are the ones that look human.

In the states of Michigan, Ohio, and Connecticut, humanoid creatures of unknown origin have been reported. These beings have one truly defining feature: over-sized bulbous heads. The origin of these creatures are unknown a...
