What comes to mind when you hear the words voodoo or hoodoo? Is it witchcraft? Dark forces? Voodoo Dolls and/or possession? It wouldn't surprise me if those are the first thoughts that come to mind. It is actually two separate and distinct spiritual practices. Voodoo is an actual practiced religion and Hoodoo, also known as root work, is a spiritual practice which deals more with the botanical side and other natural objects. Usually, Hoodoo is used for protection, luck and love spells. Both, however, are African-American spiritual practices. Why then, is it viewed by many as evil and harmful? Is Voodoo and/or Hoodoo a closed practice? If this topic interests you, join us and listen!

Throughout time and across the world, the mention of shapeshifters has always been around. The concept of beings who are able to transform into animals is certainly nothing new. In the Native-American lore there exist such beings known as Skinwalkers. These malevolent creatures are known to have the ability to shapeshift at will into animals such as wolves, coyotes and foxes to simply name a few. Aside from shapeshifting they can also mimic voices and animal cries to lure their prey, they can take on human possession and are the cause of nightmares. They are definitely a taboo topic that is rarely spoken about in the native tribes and collecting additional information regarding them is challenging. However, if this topic interests you, joins us and listen!

How could an exorcism possibly get any worse? Well there's always that possibility of death. Exorcisms are dangerous because of the physical and/or mental extremes the victim undergoes. Sometimes that can consist of being tied down, beaten and starved. The situation can escalate and become violent rather quickly. The scariest part of it all is not so much the demons that are being casted out it's the people involved in the ritual. In this episode we will take a look at two different cases involving possession both, however, equally disturbing.
