Campfire Ghost Stories

Just call me Alice. I’ve gone down the rabbit hole and have scared the living daylights out of myself.

The latest scary story comes from Timothy Alberino about the “face-peelers”. He sat in a comfy chair talking to podcaster Shawn Ryan, looking like a newer younger and more handsome Indiana Jones. He held an unlit cigar that he didn’t bring up to his Muskateer-moustached mouth.

He wove a tale, perfect for a campfire ghost story, set in remote Peru, where these “face-peelers” terrorized the people of a small village. Of course, Timothy speaks the local dialect, allowing him to speak directly with the traumatized victims.

This is the latest video I’ve watched on YouTube about strange anomalies, and I realise I need to stop this as it is giving me the heebie-jeebies.

Combine this with watching The Handmaid’s Tale on TV and I feel like I’ve got PTSD. The first time I tried to watch this dystopian story, I couldn’t. I found the repression of women too disturbing and too real. But of late I have watched the whole series, and it is truly traumatizing. What the heck is going on in Margaret Atwood’s brain?! She really is a sick person. Anyway, I’m glad that is behind me.

So, on the topic of UFO, UAP, NHI, and other unexplained phenomena, here is an unordered list of some of the podcasters I’ve been watching on YouTube (some are better quality and more credible than others):

I do find these stories perplexing and like many, I want answers. The Bob Lazar story is especially compelling. Jeremy Corbell’s account narrated in the gravelly voice of Mickey Rourke is excellent.

But this hobby can become obsessive and it sits on my psyche in a negative way. I think it is similar to the conspiracy theories that drew in many people during the COVID pandemic. Not the same content, but the same effect.

So, I really do need to escape from this rabbit hole. How did Alice get out? Oh, she woke up.

TV viewing is so bad nowadays, and the news media is truly awful. AFL has been hijacked by woke causes. And the only truly great sports viewing is the cycling in Europe. I love Le Tour. There is a wider variety of content on YouTube.

So, for a ray of sunshine and some more positive upbeat stories, I need to stick to art, music, books, travel, cooking, animal stories, etc. Here are some that I do watch and enjoy:

Any recommendations that I can investigate?
