This episode of Unsolved Histories delves into Project Stargate, a top-secret U.S. government program exploring the potential of psychic abilities for intelligence gathering during the Cold War. From 1970 to 1995, scientists, military personnel, and psychics attempted remote viewing to perceive distant locations and events. We examine key figures like Harold Puthoff and Russell Targ, the controversies, and the outcomes, ultimately questioning whether the project was a genuine scientific endeavor or an expensive pursuit of the paranormal.

Krampus isn't just a bedtime threat to keep kids in line; he's a deep-rooted symbol with ties to ancient Alpine traditions. What if the jolly old St. Nick had a shadowy counterpart roaming the winter landscapes of pre-Christian Europe? With the help of Brad and Crystal, we uncover the essence of Krampus, the horned figure who reminds us that winter is as much about darkness as it is about holiday cheer. Prepare to learn how these age-old myths evolved into the fearsome figure we sometimes glimpse in modern-day holiday lore.

Join us as we paint a vivid portrait of Krampus, the anti-Santa whose menacing presence looms over naughty children each December 5th on Krampusnacht. Forget presents and smiles; this creature brings chains, bells, and bundles of birch branches to dole out punishment. We discuss the transformation of Krampus from a wild figure of nature to the demonized creature of Christian lore. Listen closely, because the bells and chains might just be a chilling warning that he's coming for you next.
