The Rake
One of the internet's most enduring creepypastas—a story of a terrifying creature that preys on unsuspecting people in their sleep. Born from the online world, it quickly gained popularity, growing from a simple, scary tale into a fully-fledged phenomenon. This week we dive into its evolution, influence on pop culture, and its impact on those who’ve encountered stories about it, on Hysteria 51.

Check your struts and chutes, Flora is blasting off straight into the heart of the lost cosmonaut conspiracy theory! A conspiracy involving Soviet coverup of terrible atrocities, the lost cosmonaut theory deals with purported evidence of death after death in the race for space supremacy. Cries into the abyss, a faltering heartbeat, and airbrushed photos are just a few aspects of this theory. David delves deeply into the lore, examining audio files, photographs, and claims made by theorists. Just how bad was the loss of life? Was Yuri Gagarin really the first person in space? What can you even believe anymore? Sit back and let Flora take you on an audio odyssey to the 60s and beyond in this episode of Hysteria 51!

This week on Blurry Hysteria, the bizarre meter is cranked up to 11 as we dive into some truly wild stories with special guest Kevin Crispin from Sad Times Podcast. First up, are Florida's sharks turning into apex party animals, gobbling up cocaine in the waters? Next, a Montana man is sentenced for selling giant sheep—yes, you read that right, GIANT CLONED HYBRIDIZED SHEEP! Finally, Queen Camilla is reportedly attacked by a bed-hopping ghost in what might be the royal family’s weirdest paranormal tale yet. But probably not...

Ever wondered what happens when you give our listeners a hotline and a little too much free time? Spoiler alert: absolute mayhem! This week on Hysteria 51, we dive headfirst into the wild, wacky, and wonderfully weird world of YOUR voicemails.
Join hosts Brent and David as they react, dissect, and try (and often fail) to keep a straight face. Will they offer sage advice? Highly unlikely. Will they make things worse? There's a good chance. But one thing's for sure: you'll laugh, you'll cringe, and you'll probably double-check your own voicemail before hitting send next time.

Time To Get Weird!
This week, we dive deep into the strange and unexplainable with two jaw-dropping stories. First, we explore the cosmic mystery of a deep-space radio signal that has traveled 8 billion years to reach Earth—what does this signal mean, and could it be a message from an ancient civilization, or just an old voivemail from Conspiracy Boy? Then, we delve into the eerie discovery of a state between life and death that has scientists questioning everything they know about mortality. Are we unlocking the secrets of the afterlife, or are we on the brink of a zombie apocalypse? Tune in for all the weirdness, wild theories, and dumb banter you've come to love from Hysteria 51!

What do you get when a former intelligence officer, a late-night comedy show, and a whole lot of government secrets walk into a bar? You get this week’s episode of Up All Night! We’re diving into Luis Elizondo’s eye-opening appearance on The Daily Show, where he spilled the beans on the world’s worst-kept secret: aliens. Oh, I'm story - NHIs, aka Non Human Intelligence. But here’s the kicker—turns out Uncle Sam has been keeping this cosmic cat in the bag for so long, they’re now stuck trying to figure out how to un-lie to the public without blowing up the whole charade. Are we finally on the brink of disclosure, or is this just another twist in the never-ending UFO / UAP soap opera? Tune in as we dissect what Elizondo had to say, poke fun at the government's absurd balancing act, and ask the big question: when it comes to aliens, will the truth ever really set us free? Spoiler alert: it's gonna get weird.

Strength and honor. Discipline and courage. The Glory of Rome! And none of it mattered for one of said Rome’s most renowned legions. Or so it seems… Reputation became tales, and tales became myths about Legio IX Hispana, Rome’s famed Ninth Legion passed into the category of legend when it mysteriously vanished from the record books around the turn of the 2nd century CE. That was before the black and white color switch for those playing along at home. But how could one of the most fearsome and battle-tested units of the then most powerful empire on earth just up and disappear like a dad going for cigarettes? Theories have run the gamut from mundane to supernatural, with more significant consequences from its disappearance than you might imagine. Grab your gladius and scutum, we’re marching in search of Rome’s Lost 9th Legion this week on Hysteria 51!

This week, we’re diving deep into the murky waters of ancient Sumer to unravel the life and legend of Gilgamesh—part god, part man, and full-time hero. Was this towering king of Uruk just another ruler with delusions of grandeur, or was he really a demigod who battled monsters, befriended wild men, and defied the gods themselves? Join us as we explore his epic quests, including his obsession with immortality, his fateful bromance with Enkidu, and the secrets that may still lie buried beneath the Euphrates. Plus, was Gilgamesh the world’s first superhero—or something even weirder? Tune in for all that and more as we decode the ancient tablets, question history’s first literary masterpiece, and ask: why does Conspiracy Bot suck so much???

Blurry Hysteria Time!
We're diving into two bizarre news stories this week that are both gross and interesting... but mainly gross. First up, a viral court case involving a woman, a trout, and a scandalous video that's taking the internet by storm. Then, we're exploring a futuristic mashup you never knew you needed: engineers have given a mushroom its very own robot body and let it loose. Join us as we break down these strange headlines and wonder why we let Conspiracy Bot ever pic headlines!

Imagine a group of ordinary people coming together with one extraordinary goal: to create a ghost from scratch. That’s exactly what happened in the early 1970s with the Philip Experiment, a fascinating parapsychological study led by Dr. A.R.G. Owen and the Toronto Society for Psychical Research. The team invented a fictional character, Philip Aylesford, a 17th-century English nobleman with a tragic backstory, and then set out to bring him to life through sheer willpower and collective imagination.
What started as a curious experiment in human consciousness quickly escalated into something far more mysterious. The group reported witnessing strange phenomena—tables moving on their own, eerie knocks answering their questions, and even glimpses of a ghostly presence. But was this really the work of a spirit, or just the power of the human mind? Join us this week as we dive deep into the eerie world of the Philip Experiment, where belief and reality collide in the most unexpected ways… on Hysteria 51.

David takes over this week as we dip into the Blurry Photos UFO coffers for a peak at the Falcon Lake Incident!
Original Description
Flora is back with a deep dive into the fascinating events of the Falcon Lake incident! An amazing Canadian UFO case, the Falcon Lake incident is often regarded as one of the most investigated and strongest UFO cases in history. Stefan Michalak was out on a prospecting trip near Falcon Lake, Manitoba, when he witnesses 2 UFOs in the sky. When one landed not far from him, his curiosity led him to a close encounter that would forever change his life. David tackles the incident and asks tough questions in the search for the truth. What did Michalak see that day? What caused him to become so ill afterward? And what can be made of the evidence and investigations? Flora also invites Dr. Chris Cogswell from the Mad Scientist Podcast to help suss out some science. Join a fun ride into an incredible account and fascinating investigation on this episode of Blurry Photos!

This week on Hysteria 51, Brent is missing! But have no fear, David Flora enlists the help of everyone's favorite overthinking Kevin, host of Sad Times Podcast, to bring the weird. Join them as they dive headfirst into the latest batch of weird news that’s making headlines (and raising eyebrows). First up, archaeologists have just thrown us a Stonehenge curveball by tracing its famed altar stone all the way back to the Mediterranean. Is this the ultimate rock-star import or just another piece of the puzzle that proves Stonehenge was the world’s first cross-cultural hangout? Then, we tackle a bizarre loophole in organ donation—where life-saving transplants take a backseat to pancreas procedures. How did this happen, and what does it mean for the future of organ donations? Whether you’re into ancient rocks or modern medical quirks, this episode has something for everyone!

It's Weird News Time!
First up, we've got sharks off the coast of Brazil getting an unexpected high—turns out these sea creatures tested positive for cocaine! Is it a new species of "party sharks," or are we just witnessing the side effects of ocean pollution? Join us as we unravel the mystery behind these cokehead cartilaginous fish.
Next, we jump into the cosmos with news that sounds straight out of a sci-fi movie—a warp drive that might actually work within known physics! Is Star Trek about to become reality, or is this just another case of science fiction creeping into the lab? We'll break down the science (or lack thereof) behind this groundbreaking concept and speculate on when we can expect to zip across the galaxy at warp speed.
