The Faceless Guest
Expanded PerspectivesOct 30, 2026
Hosts Cam and Kyle of Expanded Perspectives read a Halloween-week batch of listener encounter stories, ranging from a red-eyed hellhound in rural Idaho to a toad-faced goblin in a Maryland marsh. The most haunting account comes from a listener who says a faceless, seven-foot pale figure followed them from home to home for nearly a decade during an abusive childhood, then faded away once they began therapy. Along the way the hosts weigh shapeshifting Bigfoot, the cloaked 'Glimmer Man,' flying manta rays over the Ohio River Valley, and uncanny 'not-deer' that seem to be failed copies of real animals.

The accounts include a Hmong hunter who lost three days in a Minnesota deer stand, a screaming crawler-like figure in Kansas, the blurry Glimmer Man returning to one man decades later, and a giant glowing worm floating through the Idaho timber. Along the way they cover shadow people, the Hat Man, a tall white being that slept in a child's barn, and a Wendigo-like creature that spoke perfect English.
