About the podcast
ParaReality is an award-winning investigative podcast that explores the mysteries, experiences, and unanswered questions that exist beyond the boundaries of conventional understanding. Hosted by longtime paranormal researcher Sandman, the show examines ghosts and hauntings, cryptids and legendary creatures, UFOs and alleged alien encounters, conspiracy theories, occult history, spiritual phenomena, unexplained events, and the hidden corners of human experience.
However, ParaReality is about more than simply telling frightening stories or accepting extraordinary claims at face value. Each episode looks beneath the surface of a subject, examining its history, supporting evidence, eyewitness testimony, cultural significance, and possible explanations. Documented facts are separated from rumor and speculation, while skeptical interpretations are considered alongside paranormal, psychological, scientific, historical, and spiritual perspectives.
ParaReality does not tell its audience what to believe. It creates a space where curiosity and critical thinking can exist together—where unusual claims can be explored respectfully, but also questioned honestly. The show recognizes that not every mystery has a paranormal explanation, while remaining open to the possibility that some experiences cannot be easily dismissed or explained.
At its heart, ParaReality is a podcast about the search for truth in places where truth is often uncertain. It is for listeners who are fascinated by the unknown, skeptical of easy answers, and willing to consider possibilities that exist outside the accepted narrative. The evidence is examined, the stories are heard, and the questions are placed in the hands of the audience.

Sandman explores Steve’s account of Lilith, the group’s ninth member, and the message of equality and empowerment presented in The Order of the Red Winged Angels. The conversation also explores multidimensionality, ghosts and hauntings, fragmented souls, and what the Group’s teachings suggest about life, death, and the challenges we face. How does Steve understand these experiences, and what practical meaning might listeners find in his message? Join us for a thoughtful exploration of channeling, consciousness, and spiritual belief.

Show notes
In Part One, we examined the cases that helped establish the modern alien-abduction phenomenon. Now, the investigation turns inward. In Part Two: Inside the Experience, Sandman explores what could cause an abduction experience without a person being physically taken by extraterrestrial beings. Could some accounts be deliberate hoaxes or stories that became more elaborate over time? Can hypnosis uncover a hidden memory—or unintentionally create one? How closely do bedroom abductions resemble sleep paralysis, and how much has popular culture influenced the beings, examinations, and spacecraft people remember? This episode also examines whether several people can genuinely share a hallucination, how witnesses can influence one another’s memories, and why sincere belief does not necessarily establish that an event occurred exactly as remembered. The answer may not be real, hoax, or hallucination. Different cases may have entirely different causes—and some may remain unexplained. This is Alien Abductions: Real, Hoax, or Shared Hallucinations?

Show notes
Thousands of people claim to have been taken by beings from somewhere beyond our world—but what evidence suggests that alien abductions are physical events rather than dreams, hallucinations, false memories, or carefully constructed hoaxes? In Part One of this two-part investigation, Sandman examines the cases that helped define the modern alien-abduction phenomenon. From Antônio Villas Boas and Betty and Barney Hill to the Pascagoula encounter, the Allagash incident, and the mysterious five-day disappearance of Travis Walton, each case presents its own combination of unusual testimony, missing time, multiple witnesses, disputed evidence, and unanswered questions. Are the similarities between these accounts evidence of a genuine phenomenon, or have decades of media coverage and cultural influence created a recognizable abduction narrative? Do alleged scars, implants, polygraph results, and witness reactions provide physical evidence—or only deepen the mystery? This is Part One: Taken. Turn On, Tune In, & Find Out!

In this Flashback episode, we return to the early days of ParaReality to explore the idea of psychic vampires: people believed to feed on the energy of others rather than their blood.

Show notes
What if the UFO phenomenon is connected to something far greater than extraterrestrial visitation? In this episode of ParaReality, Sandman and Eric welcome Sabina Qureshi, a longtime student of the Ageless Wisdom teachings, to explore the predicted reappearance of Maitreya and the Masters of Wisdom. According to the teachings presented by the late British esotericist Benjamin Creme, Maitreya is the World Teacher for all humanity, and his emergence could mark the beginning of a new era based upon sharing, justice, cooperation, and peace. But where do UFOs fit into this extraordinary story? Sabina discusses the beings known as the Space Brothers and Sisters, their alleged spiritual mission on Earth, their reported presence near nuclear facilities and disaster sites, and the claim that they operate on normally invisible levels of matter known as the etheric planes. The conversation also examines humanity’s transition into the Age of Aquarius, the future Technology of Light, and why advanced beings may assist us without interfering with our free will. Are we witnessing civilization’s decline—or the difficult birth of a new age? Turn On, Tune In, & Find Out!

Season 1, Episode 10 — Originally Aired April 23, 2004 Diplomat. Adventurer. Alchemist. Occultist. Immortal? In this edition of ParaReality Flashback, we travel back to April 23, 2004, and one of the earliest mysteries explored on the podcast: the extraordinary legend of the Count of Saint Germain. Appearing among the royal courts and aristocracy of 18th-century Europe, Saint Germain was said to possess remarkable knowledge of languages, music, chemistry, diplomacy, and the occult. His origins were mysterious, his wealth seemed almost limitless, and perhaps most strangely of all, those who encountered him claimed that the man simply didn't seem to age. But Saint Germain's legend didn't end with his reported death in 1784. Stories of encounters with the mysterious Count continued, eventually transforming him from an enigmatic historical figure into one of the most fascinating characters in Western occult tradition. Was Saint Germain an extraordinarily talented adventurer whose exploits grew into legend? A brilliant confidence man? A master alchemist who discovered something others could not? Or could there be something behind the centuries-old claims that the "Immortal Count" somehow conquered time itself? More than twenty-two years after this episode first aired, return with Sandman to the early days of ParaReality and rediscover the enduring mystery of Saint Germain.

Show notes
What if the demons aren't the villains? On this episode of ParaReality, Sandman sits down with independent comic creator and publisher Austin Light, the mind behind American Demon Comics and the supernatural comic series Envy. At the center of Envy is Belial, a fallen angel and demon king whose story challenges traditional ideas about good and evil, Heaven and Hell, and the roles we've assigned to angels and demons. Austin discusses the inspiration behind the series, his approach to demonology and religious philosophy, and how mythology, theology, and the paranormal influence the world he's creating. But Austin's connection to the unexplained doesn't end on the comic page. He's also a paranormal investigator with the HSVPara team and has a deep interest in UFOs and UAP phenomena. Sandman and Austin explore the connections between his creative work and real-world paranormal investigation—and venture into the intriguing possibility that some of the entities humanity has called angels, demons, spirits, and even extraterrestrials might not fit as neatly into separate categories as we think. Austin also talks about independent publishing, American Demon Comics, and what's coming next for Envy. Plus, Austin and Sandman will both be appearing at GoblinCon in Hopkinsville, Kentucky, August 22–23, where you'll have the chance to meet them in person. Enter the world of Envy—where demons have stories of their own, morality isn't always black and white, and the boundary between fiction and the unexplained can become surprisingly thin. Envy is available at AmericanDemonComics.com.

Show notes
In 1977, the quiet coastal community of Broad Haven, Wales, became the center of one of Britain’s most mysterious UFO flaps. It began when a group of schoolchildren reported seeing a cigar-shaped craft—and, according to some witnesses, a tall, silver-suited figure—in a field near their playground. Soon, reports of glowing objects, faceless humanoids, electrical disturbances, frightened animals, and strange activity spread across the Pembrokeshire countryside, creating what the press called the Welsh Triangle. In this episode of the ParaReality Podcast, Sandman and Eric revisit the famous Broad Haven school sighting, the Haven Fort Hotel encounter, the disturbing events at Ripperston Farm, and the British military’s discreet inquiry into the reports. They also examine the competing explanations, including mistaken identity, secret military activity, media influence, and an admitted silver-suited prankster. Did something truly unknown visit the Welsh coast, or did one mysterious sighting ignite a chain reaction of rumor, fear, folklore, and hoax? Step inside the Broad Haven Triangle, where nearly fifty years later, the truth remains hidden somewhere between credible testimony and enduring legend.

Show notes
The Summer Series concludes with its most unsettling chapter yet. For decades, experiencers have reported encounters with towering insect-like beings unlike anything else in UFO lore. Often referred to as Mantids or Insectoids, these mysterious entities are frequently described as possessing immense intelligence, communicating through telepathy, and silently observing encounters involving both Greys and Nordics. In this episode, Sandman takes a deep dive into the history of the Insectoid phenomenon, examining eyewitness accounts, the research of Budd Hopkins, Dr. John Mack, David Jacobs, and Jacques Vallée, and the competing theories surrounding these enigmatic beings. Are the Mantids extraterrestrial visitors, interdimensional intelligences, symbolic archetypes, or something beyond our current understanding? We'll also explore the controversial Overseer Theory, the debate surrounding hypnotic regression and false memories, the ancient symbolism of insect-like beings throughout history, and why so many witnesses describe the Insectoids as the most intelligent—and perhaps the most unsettling—entities they've ever encountered. Join Sandman as the ParaReality Summer Series reaches its thought-provoking conclusion, bringing together the Greys, the Nordics, and the Insectoids in an exploration of one of the greatest mysteries of our time. Keep questioning. Keep searching. And keep your eyes on the skies.

Show notes
Not every ghost is terrifying. Some seem more interested in playing tricks than striking fear. In this Flashback episode of ParaReality, we travel back to one of the show's earliest broadcasts from 2004 to explore the curious phenomenon of mischievous hauntings. Why do some spirits move objects, make unexplained noises, hide personal belongings, or play harmless pranks on the living? Are these encounters evidence of intelligent hauntings, poltergeist activity, or something else entirely? Join Sandman as he examines why these "pesky ghosts" behave the way they do and shares practical suggestions that have been used to calm—or even end—these unusual paranormal disturbances. Whether you're revisiting this classic episode or hearing it for the first time, you'll discover that while paranormal investigation has evolved dramatically over the past two decades, the mystery surrounding haunted homes remains as fascinating as ever.

Show notes
For nearly eight decades, the Roswell Incident has remained one of the most enduring mysteries in modern history. On July 8, 1947, the U.S. military announced the recovery of a "flying disc" near Roswell, New Mexico—only to reverse its story hours later. What followed was a controversy that continues to spark debate to this day. In this special 79th Anniversary episode of ParaReality, Sandman and Eric "Easy E" Patterson take a deep dive into the case that launched a thousand conspiracy theories. Together, they examine the discovery of the debris field, the military's announcement and retraction, the testimony of Major Jesse Marcel, Project Mogul, Glenn Dennis and the alien body claims, the second crash site theory, Hangar 84, Majestic-12, and Nick Redfern's disturbing alternative explanation involving Cold War psychological warfare and human experimentation. Was Roswell the crash of an extraterrestrial spacecraft? A top-secret military project? A Soviet operation? Or has decades of speculation transformed a misunderstood event into modern mythology? Seventy-nine years later, the questions remain—and the mystery refuses to die. Join us as we revisit the evidence, the witnesses, the theories, and the controversy surrounding the most famous UFO case of all time.

Show notes
For decades, reports of alien encounters have been dominated by one image: the Grey alien. But what if that's only half the story? In Part 2 of the ParaReality Summer Series, Sandman explores the mysterious world of the Nordics—tall, human-looking beings who are often described as intelligent, compassionate, and deeply concerned about humanity's future. From the Contactee Era of the 1950s and the stories of the Space Brothers to the Pleiadian connection, warning messages about war and environmental destruction, and theories suggesting humanity may be part of a larger cosmic family, this episode examines one of the most fascinating and controversial aspects of UFO lore. Are the Nordics extraterrestrial visitors? Spiritual messengers? Psychological archetypes? Or something else entirely? Join Sandman as he explores what many consider to be the other face of the UFO phenomenon. Keep questioning. Keep searching. And keep your eyes on the skies.

Described as part animal, part monster, and part nightmare, the Jersey Devil has become a fixture of American folklore and one of the most reported cryptid creatures in history. In this episode, we explore the origins of the legend, the infamous Leeds family curse, eyewitness accounts spanning generations, and the theories that attempt to explain the mystery. Is the Jersey Devil merely a product of myth and superstition, or could there be a real phenomenon lurking behind the stories? Step back into the early days of ParaReality and experience the curiosity, investigation, and fascination with the unknown that helped shape the show from the very beginning. What if one of America's oldest monsters isn't just a legend?

What would you do if four hours of your life simply disappeared? What if you woke up in the middle of the night and saw a woman standing in your hallway—only to discover nobody was there? Or watched a massive black triangle glide silently across the sky? Or received a phone call from a loved one who had already passed away? In this special edition of ParaReality, the spotlight turns to you. Join Sandman as he opens the inbox and answers calls from listeners who have experienced the strange, the mysterious, and the unexplained. Some are searching for answers. Others simply want to share a story they've carried for years. From missing time and UFO sightings to ghostly encounters and possible cryptid activity deep in the Smoky Mountains, each account offers a glimpse into the unknown. Are these experiences evidence of something beyond our understanding? Misidentified events? Tricks of memory and perception? Or something else entirely? We don't claim to have all the answers—but together, we'll explore the questions. Tonight's stories are real. The witnesses are real. The mystery remains. Welcome to Ask Sandman.

Show notes
Few modern paranormal mysteries are as unsettling as the phenomenon known as the Black Eyed Kids. Reports from across the world describe pale, emotionless children with completely black eyes appearing unexpectedly and asking for help, a ride, or permission to enter a home. Witnesses often report overwhelming fear and the disturbing feeling that they are interacting with something that only appears human. In this episode of ParaReality, Sandman and Eric "Easy E" Patterson explore two very different theories behind one of the strangest mysteries of the modern paranormal age. Could the Black Eyed Kids be connected to the UFO phenomenon and the long-rumored alien-human hybridization program? Or are they something far older—interdimensional entities or fairy-like beings whose stories have been woven into human folklore for centuries? Together, they examine the origins of the Black Eyed Kids legend, the most famous encounters, the eerie consistency of witness reports, and the similarities these entities share with both UFO lore and ancient traditions involving otherworldly visitors. Are the Black Eyed Kids evidence of a hidden intelligence attempting to blend into human society? Are they manifestations of an ancient phenomenon that has simply adapted to the modern world? Or are they something else entirely? Whatever the answer may be, one thing is certain: the mystery continues. Listen now and decide for yourself.

The Greys. Few images in modern culture are as instantly recognizable—or as deeply unsettling. With their oversized black eyes, small gray bodies, and mysterious presence, Grey aliens have become the defining face of the UFO phenomenon. But where did the stories come from, and why have they persisted for decades? In this first installment of the ParaReality Summer Series, Sandman takes a deep dive into the world of the Greys. From the landmark Betty and Barney Hill abduction case and the Roswell controversy to alien abduction reports, the Zeta Reticuli connection, hybridization theories, interdimensional hypotheses, and modern government conspiracy theories, this episode explores the many claims, stories, and mysteries surrounding these enigmatic beings. Are the Greys extraterrestrial visitors from another star system? Interdimensional entities that have interacted with humanity throughout history? Future humans attempting to alter their own timeline? Or are they something else entirely? Join Sandman as he examines the evidence, the theories, the skepticism, and the enduring fascination surrounding one of the most controversial subjects in paranormal history. Keep questioning. Keep searching. And keep your eyes on the skies.

What if UFOs aren’t extraterrestrial spacecraft at all…but manifestations of something far stranger? In this episode of ParaReality Podcast, Sandman sits down with veteran UFO researcher and author Brent Raynes for a deep exploration into the hidden side of the phenomenon. Drawing from nearly six decades of investigation, Raynes discusses the connections between UFO encounters, Marian apparitions, Mothman, altered states of consciousness, ultraterrestrials, and the enduring influence of legendary researcher John A. Keel. Together, they examine the idea that the paranormal may not be separate phenomena at all—but different masks worn by the same mysterious intelligence. From glowing spheres and contact experiences to psychic phenomena and interdimensional theories, this conversation ventures far beyond traditional “nuts-and-bolts” ufology and into the truly unknown. Are we dealing with visitors from another world…or something that has been here all along?

What if UFOs aren’t random… but organized? In this episode of the ParaReality Podcast, Sandman takes a deep dive into three of the most commonly reported UFO shapes in modern history: the classic saucer-shaped craft, the mysterious Black Triangle, and the massive cigar-shaped UFO. But this isn’t just a discussion about strange objects in the sky—it’s an exploration of a far more unsettling possibility. What if these different UFO types aren’t isolated sightings at all? What if they serve different functions within a larger, coordinated system? Using real eyewitness testimony, military encounters, historical case studies, and documented reports—including the Phoenix Lights, the Belgian UFO Wave, the Washington D.C. UFO Incident, and the USS Nimitz UFO Incident—this episode examines the theory that UFOs may operate as part of a structured hierarchy: scouts, surveillance craft, and possibly even larger “mothership”-style objects operating behind the scenes. Are these sightings evidence of advanced military technology, non-human intelligence, or something even stranger? Tonight, we connect the patterns and ask the question that changes everything: What if they’re already here… and have been for a very long time? Keep your eyes on the sky.

What would you do if a child knocked on your door in the middle of the night… and something about them felt wrong? In this episode of The Midnight Syndicate Podcast, we explore one of the most disturbing modern paranormal phenomena to emerge in recent decades: the Black Eyed Kids. Described as pale, emotionless children with completely black eyes, these entities have been reported across the United States and beyond—always appearing in unexpected places, always asking for help… and always needing permission to enter. From the chilling 1996 encounter that sparked the legend to modern-day sightings that continue to surface, we break down the patterns, the behavior, and the eerie consistency behind these encounters. Why do they ask to be let in? Why do witnesses feel immediate, overwhelming fear? And why does this phenomenon echo ancient folklore about entities that cannot cross a threshold without consent? Are the Black Eyed Kids simply an internet-born urban legend? A psychological manifestation of fear? Or something far more unsettling—something that understands human trust, and waits for us to open the door? Whatever they are… the stories haven’t stopped. And neither has the mystery. Lock your doors. Trust your instincts. And whatever you do… Don’t let them in.

Tonight we’re going all the way back to January of 2004. This was only the third episode that I ever did and back then I was on the Live365 Radio network. At that time, it was Internet Radio, and not podcasting, that was the big thing. In fact, podcasting didn’t even exist. I didn’t have anything except for a headset microphone that I plugged directly into the 3.5mm microphone jack on the computer. I couldn’t afford anything else. I think you’ll be able to tell by the sound quality that what I was working with wasn’t very expensive. But all I needed was that headset, a computer and an internet connection and my dream of having my own radio talk show was realized. On this episode, I’m discussing the Spirits of the Dead – what they are and how to contact them. I was still learning how to be a talk show host, and the identity of the show hadn’t been established yet. You’ll definitely be able to tell it. It would take me a while to develop my style and make the show what I wanted. Anyway, I hope you’ll take the time to listen to at least part of this episode. It kind of shows you how far I’ve come. I present to you ParaReality Flashback, episode 3 – Spirits of the Dead. Originally recorded on January 25, 2004.

What if the things we call ghosts…aren’t the only ones watching? Tonight on ParaReality, Sandman sits down with D. Paul—U.S. Navy veteran, Native American Holy Man, and spiritual warrior—to explore the terrifying true inspiration behind Mystery’s at the Windham Inn: The Feral Feline. At the center of this story lies the Windham Inn, a place steeped in centuries of tragedy, where the line between the living and the unseen has all but disappeared. Here, dark entities don’t just haunt—they hunt. And the battle for one man’s soul reveals something far bigger than a traditional haunting. Because lurking behind the veil are the Watchers—mysterious beings who observe, record, and, at times, intervene. Are they spiritual guardians…or something closer to what we now call non-human intelligence? As Season 20 dives deep into UFOs and Disclosure, this episode asks a chilling question: What if the paranormal, the spiritual, and the extraterrestrial are all part of the same hidden reality? From ancient curses and generational hauntings to portals, possession, and unseen forces manipulating free will—this is more than a ghost story. It’s a glimpse into a war that may have been unfolding around us for centuries. Turn on. Tune in. And find out.

Show notes
In one of the most persistent conspiracy theories of the modern era, legendary filmmaker Stanley Kubrick is accused of helping the U.S. government stage the historic Apollo 11 Moon Landing. But where did this theory come from—and is there any truth behind it? In this episode of Midnight Syndicate, Sandman and Easy E explore the strange intersection of Hollywood, Cold War paranoia, and one of humanity’s greatest achievements. From Kubrick’s groundbreaking film 2001: A Space Odyssey to the hidden symbolism conspiracy theorists claim to see in The Shining, we break down the claims, the “evidence,” and the psychological reasons this theory refuses to die. Was Kubrick secretly recruited by NASA to film the greatest deception in history? Did he hide clues in his movies? Or is the story itself a fascinating example of how myth and mistrust shape modern conspiracies? Step into the shadows of cinema, secrecy, and the Space Race as we ask the question: Did Stanley Kubrick fake the Moon landing?
