The Croft State Park Encounter

Expanded PerspectivesSep 7, 2026

Cam Hale and Kyle Filson read listener encounters, led by Lewis's account of an orange orb, small gray beings and missing time at Croft State Park, South Carolina, in the 1970s. Other stories include a skinless 'flayed man' ghost in a Louisiana swamp, a giant owl-like creature that confronted three teenage runaways in Vermont in 1977, and 'not deer' sightings in Idaho and Sleepy Hollow, New York. The episode closes with a Texas family who say a La Lechuza witch-owl haunted them for seven years.
