Cryptid Crimes: Cases That Defy Reality - Mysteries, Mayhem & Merlot

Cryptid Crimes: Cases That Defy Reality - Mysteries, Mayhem & Merlot

Author: Dave Schrader November 30, 2025 Duration: 1:02:51
In this episode, we investigate the disappearances and violent encounters that point to something far darker than folklore. From unexplained vanishing points to witnesses claiming they saw non-human shapes watching from the treeline, these cases blur the line between true crime and cryptid terror. Are these missing persons victims of nature… or predators that shouldn’t exist? We break down the sightings, the evidence, and the chilling patterns behind the mysterious creatures, monster legends, and unsolved crimes that authorities refuse to explain.

Hosted by Dave Schrader, The Paranormal 60 Network is a daily exploration into the shadows and strange frequencies that hum just beneath the surface of our ordinary world. This isn't a single show but a curated collection of voices, each dedicated to dissecting a different corner of the mysterious. Every episode across the network’s schedule tackles topics from ghostly encounters and UAP phenomena to deep dives into folklore, unsettling true crime, and enduring historical puzzles. The approach is grounded yet open, favoring narrative and investigation over sensationalism. You might spend one day immersed in the regional myths and odd tales of New England with Jeff Belanger and Ray Auger, then join Dave Schrader the next for his focused take on the paranormal. The result is a consistently intriguing podcast feed that treats the unexplained with a seriousness that respects both the subject and the listener’s curiosity. It’s designed for those who find fascination in the unanswered question, offering a daily dose of the supernatural, the strange, and the historically hidden, all delivered through thoughtful conversation and researched storytelling. Tune in and let the familiar world seem a little less certain, and a whole lot more interesting.
